Chapter 304
Jackson replied in a resigned tone. “I understand.” He hung up the phone and looked back at the bed.
He’d heard rumors of shifters being able to turn humans. But they were just that. Rumors and legends, likely made up by desperate humans.
He heaved a sigh and sunk back into his chair, watching Taya sleep.
Harper had found a cool washcloth, but she was not in a hurry to return to Taya since she knew Jackson was there.
She leaned against the wall in a daze. Her phone vibrated several times, but she
