PAIN

My name is Darwin De Groi, and I�m in love with Peter Forbes. But Pete has this dream of becoming a metaphysical scientist and that means all his time�his attention�is taken up by college and studying. So in order to deal with the pain of watching Peter and never having him I spend most of my time in the Gray Zone, the no-man�s-land between the city of Atlanta and the Dens. There I�m free to drown myself; with drugs, with booze� With the inhuman. Lesser-Breds. Kin hybrids. The offspring of Humans and Dragons. But then an act of revenge led to a stupid college prank, which put Peter right into my arms. A better man would make the right decision and tell Pete no. I am so not that man.
