Hayley shook her head with an amused smile.
Ethan's nature wasn't hidden from her or any other members of the guild.
And everyone knew the stories of the prideful creatures that roamed the skies of a distant continent, beings with the power to make even nature tremble.
Even though Ethan could not directly compare in strength to someone like Marvin, perhaps that inherent prideful nature of dragons was why he'd never go down on one knee.
The matches finished, and the pack members began moving closer to the family house.
Then Hayley suddenly yelled out. "Everyone! Remember this guy?"
She nudged Ethan by the elbow, gesturing toward him with a grin.
Ethan leaned toward her slightly and said in a low voice, "Uh, Hayley, what are you doing?"
One of the wolves from the crowd squinted at him, then said, "Is that not Ethan?"
Another wolf's eyes widened with recognition, and an excited grin spread across his face. "Wait… it is!"
