"Man, Wellsie had been unafraid to say exactly what she thought anyone, including her hellren. She was never a hothead without a good reason, of course, but you hadn't necessarily wanted to cross her if you didn't have to.
People had respected her."
Wellsie was the mate of the Brother Tohrment and the adopted mahmen of John Matthew in the Black Dagger Brotherhood series by JR Ward. She was murdered by a lesser while pregnant with a son.
Biography[]
For years, her otherwise happy mating with Tohrment was only disturbed by regular arguments over having children. Tohr didn't want to risk losing his shellan, but Wellsie wanted a piece of her hellren to love if he was killed in the war. Eventually, he agreed and when the pregnancy was confirmed, he was gripped with a terrible knowledge that he was going to lose her.
Wellsie lent the red and black gown she wore to her own mating in 1814 to Beth to wear at her mating.[2]
When Bella brought a mute pretrans, John Matthew, who'd been raised by humans to the Brotherhood, Tohr and Wellsie took the poor traumatized boy in like he was their own son. Tohrment and John grew close as he developed and ran the training program in which John was enrolled. It was pure random chance that lessers found and murdered her while searching for Bella.
Personality[]
Wellsie was warm, kind, and straight-forward, standing with Beth at her mating the day they met and unofficially adopting John Matthew pretty much from the get-go. She's absolutely the type of person that when you step into her home, she'll have you take your shoes off, pop you into slippers, maybe even wrap you with a blanket, and feed you.[3]
She was strong-minded and stubborn and made friends easily.
Physical Description[]
Wellsie had long, wavy red hair and eyes the colour of sherry; she was curvy and smelled like roses and jasmine and spice.

- Her cremains were kept in a Tiffany's silver art deco box from the 1930's that Darius had collected and Fritz found in storage at the mansion.[7]
