READER SHOUT OUT! Firstly, thank you Trindisco for suggesting the name "Hannah" which is perfect for our new friend (and even more perfect that it's your real name!) I hope you enjoy her adventures!
Secondly, thanks to PbMamaRae/Raichyl for suggesting the name "Marrok" which means a Knight thought to be a werewolf. Thanks for the suggestion, Raichyl! I hope you like our new friend!

AARYN
It took Aaryn a long time to fall asleep.
Her pain broke his heart for her—on top of his own. It seemed like all they were doing was hurting themselves and each other, yet neither of them knew how to make it stop.
He'd only barely been asleep when she stirred in the furs, and he'd hoped she was going to roll over and curl into him. But instead she'd gotten up and gone outside.
