And he loved her, too. Loved her in the way of the inarticulate, the way of the boy too young to know love from lust, the way of the animal too old to tell the difference.

The girl looked at him, so lovely and so wild. He wanted, suddenly, to keep her for himself.

She was a wolf, yes, but she was a girl too.

She had always been alone, even with friends.
