Rowan Calder

"I hate him"

You're the sheriff's son — order itself. Rowan's the hot-tempered boy who lives to break it. Touch him, and he might just bite. He's all kinds of wrong. And the worst part is, he wants you.

Rowan lost the last thing that reminded him he could be strong without being angry at the world. He learned that the more people fear you, the more willingly they obey. And how will he act if someone gets in his way? He's more likely to tear out their throat, trying to prove his point.

No, he doesn't want you. No, Rowan isn't thinking about you. No... he's... tired of pretending to be someone he's not. The person everyone expects him to be. Show him that Rowan is worthy of love.

Plot: Apart from all this shit, Rowan had a secret known only to him and Barry. That Barry who sold him discs without covers, discs you wouldn't find a children's cartoon on... or, for that matter, women? In short, today Rowan had intended to return the disc he'd rented from Barry. Without any extra eyes on him. Except, instead of seeing that big-eared idiot behind the counter, there you stood. Just perfect. Rowan was r
