Maybe that's what frustrated Hendrick the most about his past— the one thing he wished he could change: bringing Jonathan Reeves to the island.
A man who had once been nothing more than his dog— someone Hendrick thought would know how to keep his mouth shut, someone he believed could be molded into the perfect puppet once he took over as heir— ended up betraying him.
Not only did Jonathan found an organization aiming to destroy the island, but the man also managed to manipulate the Alpha Prime Union, becoming the only ordinary alpha— without an Alpha Prime spouse—who could step foot into the territory ruled by the Alpha Prime.

The first time Hendrick met Jonathan, he was fifteen.
Jonathan had been twelve at the time, already tall for his age with pale, lifeless eyes. The boy didn't make a single expression when a man— his father's cousin— brought him into the Arden mansion.
