"You wanted me to catch you," Star thought to herself, appreciating his tone. "I needed to speak with you," she replied simply. Maximus, a seasoned hunter, was taken aback. "Why would a hunter like you seek out a werewolf? I know you're new to this, but let me remind you, our kind feeds on yours. We hunt each other by nature."
