When I asked that question, he went silent for about five seconds before slowly looking away from me and then back to me almost immediately.
"Cassandra, we do not have to keep going back and forth about this. I have told you already that it is for your best interest; it is to keep you alive. Do not make it seem like I am doing it because I want to punish you," he said to me.
"How am I supposed to know that, Donald? How am I supposed to know that you are not saying it to me to keep me here because you don't want me going out for your own interest? You don't have any proof, and I just have to take your word for it? It doesn't make sense," I said to him and then noticed the way he adjusted himself from the couch where he was sitting beside me.
"You want me to prove to you that you are going to be in danger if the pack should find out that you are human?" he asked me, staring at me the whole time as he said those words with so much emphasis on each of them.
