Cinnamon, one of Spellbooke's children, once an heir to Altolux's legacy, he angered an enemy of his mother and was cursed to become a strange mix of canine and dragon, driven by instinct. When in the presence of dried flowers, however, his thoughts clear.

Tyler sat in Derek’s living room, feeling incredibly uncomfortable. There were so many unfamiliar scents and it made him feel like an intruder. Part of him wanted to run, to leave and not come back because he was an unwelcome alpha. Another part felt the need to fight for dominance, to overtake the pack. But the biggest part of him...the only part that Tyler wasn’t suppressing...just wanted to be closer, to wrap himself in all the scents and settle. He was so tired of running.
