Magnus's POV

I tried hard to suppress the needs of my wolf. It was cautioning me to stop being so angry at Emily, but I didn't want to listen to it. I didn't want anyone else to get hurt. I didn't want anyone to pass away, because of my love for them, because of our closeness.

My mind was prepared to do whatever it would take to make sure Emily wasn't considered a close person to me, but at the same time, I couldn't let her go. Maybe I could find a way to revoke this ancient tradition of my lovers passing away a few weeks after getting into relationships...
