sometimes love is all that can save us, sometimes love can kill a man
"And how is it you know so much about lions?" Remi replied, sounding at least 2% defensive now, even as he grinned. "In the pride perhaps, though I have never been part of one, and have had to do all my hunting on my own, as a hawk, a lion, and a manticore."
