Wilder's POV I Know That I Promised To Leave Them Alone For The Evening. I See How Little They Trust Me. I See The Glances They Exchange Between Themselves Every Time I Open My Mouth. I’m Pretty Sure They’re Putting Everything I Say Together Into Some Kind Of Complete Picture About Me, And Probably One I’m Not Going To Like. It’s Probably Not Going To Be Accurate, At Any Rate. I Was Telling Them The Truth. I Really Do Want Us To Help Each Other. After All, Given What’s Been Hunting Them, They Must Know Something. And They Might Be Hybrids, But It Was Obvious From The Battle I Saw That None Of Them Is Highly Trained Or Specialized. I Could Give Them That. I Could Help Them Access Their Power. They Should Want My Help. Still, I Promised I Would Leave Them Alone Because They’re Awkward
