Quote preview background for Nichole McElhaney
I am not soft. I do not have that luxury. I am the wolf in girl__ clothing; all snarls and claws. My mother once told me: be gentle, be kind. She forgot to mention that the world was full of beasts, and if I wanted to survive I would have to become one myself.
