Nefretiri
When I see the almost evil smile on Ivan's lips, I realize this might not have been the most fantastic idea.
After all, he had the title Ivan the Contemptible among most of the packs on the west coast. A ruthless, merciless alpha who didn't yield until he won. He was sought after by the most prominent packs to share his abilities.
Ivan was feared by so many people, but they didn't know him. Instead, everyone thought they did, even inside the pack. No one understood that the ruthlessness wasn't out of cruelty. It was the drive of a predator, a focused hunter. He showed no mercy because he couldn't afford to show any.
So many saw him as a monster they could control. Then they labeled me the tamer of the beast when I entered his life. No one could wrap their heads around the idea that I'd done nothing to subdue Ivan.
