Haunted Wood And When We Go Don't Blame Us

Hearing Connor speak, it made sense. He had sensed it, the touch of man, especially the bracelet. He gave a low growl. "Man brings nothing but destruction. They are filthy, cruel, wasteful creatures that are only useful as prey for the sick and weak." He spat bitterly. Man had robbed him of Thorn, the man who had promised him a better life here in the Teetons. He could see the shadow of shame over the kid and nuzzled his shoulder. 
"Never be ashamed of what you did to survive. That's what sets us apart from other wolves. We've seen things and done things other wolves couldn't possibly imagine."  
At the kids comment he gave a weak smile. " Depends on who you ask. But I think its cruel to demand the heart not follow what it wants. As for me...maybe. I dunno."
