Atlas POV:
I wasn’t sure I heard him correctly as he spoke softly. “What do you mean?” I questioned him, not sure what he meant. Did he see me as more than a monster? Would he turn against me? Report me to the other packs? Would I live to even see my pups born? My heart felt as if it would beat smooth out of my chest.
He raised his stare, meeting my eyes with more compassion than I had ever seen from him, “I mean just what I said,” he leaned forward in his seat, “I don’t see ferals the same way everyone else does.” He gave me a minute to process his words. “But what does that mean?” I probed further. I didn’t understand. The only one that I knew wouldn’t hate me immediately was Reena because she didn’t know what that meant. But as soon as she finds out, her view of me will change.
