It looks like a wolf, or a dog bit him. Was this boy dead? Her heart jumped a beat; she had never seen a dead body.

"Sweetie... where did you see this man, Ethan?" she asks, concerned. Aliya looked down at her hand, which was still in her mother's hand, and closed her eyes for a moment. She remembered the flash of his blue eyes and his voice calling her his queen. She opened her eyes and looked up at her mother, feeling a bit uneasy. "I saw him when I was asleep. He kept
