I warned her I wasn't the man for her. Now she'll learn what happens when you tempt an animal. I left my past behind me. I ran. I didn't slow down, and I didn't look back. I couldn't outrun the memories-or escape the nightmares. I came to North Carolina to be alone. Hayden's waiting for a Prince to save her. I'm no Prince. I'm just a wounded animal. A Beast. She tastes like heaven. She only adds to my hell. She makes me want things that I can't have. Crave what I don't deserve. Hayden just might be the one to finish destroying me. Love isn't always pretty. Sometimes it's dirty.
