Save
So it comes to this: I would have lost her either way. If Cole hadn’t reinfected her, I would have lost her in the hospital bed. And now Cole’s wolf tozin pumps through her veins, and I lose her to the woods, like I lose everything I love.So here is me, and I am a boy watched–by her parents’ suspicious eyes, since they cannot prove that I kidnapped Grace but believe nonetheless–and I am a boy watchful–because Tom Culpeper’s bitterness is growing palpable in this tiny town and I will NOT bury Grace’s body–and I am a boy waiting–for the heat and the fruitfulness of summer, waiting to see who will walk out of those woods for me. Waiting for my lovely summer girl.
