It took all her patience not to gouge the stupid girl's eyes out, and it didn't even matter that Isabella was her sister. There was only so much "Shadow" talk that Camille could take.
In fact, yesterday before papa had called, she even made a sneaky tr

After an emotional visit from Mama and Papa and an awkward moment with Shadow, Isabella was finally discharged into the care of her parents.She couldn't even look her friend in the eyes after what Camille had said, and after it became painfully obvious that Isabella didn't want him there, Shadow had excused himself, explaining that he was working on a project on the outskirts of town and should probably get back to it.'You shouldn't treat mate like that,' Mazlyn warned, huffing in annoyance at her human skin's silliness, but Isabella just couldn't seem to get past what Camille had revealed. It was slowly eating her u

She could sense Shadow's eyes boring into her, but Isabella chose to ignore the pull. Something was happening as Camille escorted her through the training pack members, an awareness of sorts, and all of a sudden Mazlyn had joined her, looking through Isabella's eyes, as a feeling of excitement started to unfurl in the pit of her stomach.When Camille finally stopped, it was in front of a huge ring, and a pretty Asian woman smiled at her as Camille introduced Isabella to the females leaning on the ropes.Giselle was the Asian lady's name and Isabella quickly discovered that she was also a Beta wolf and the female wolf's trainer. Giselle was a gently spoken woman, with lovely olive skin and dark expressive eyes. He

Everything was almost in place.Santos sent the email to Alpha Payne, explaining that something had come up with his daughter and he would be extending his stay to 8 days; Payne wasn't happy but agreed to allow him more time, so if things went South at least he and his family had a pack to return to.The letter had been a stroke of genius, his only regret being that he arrived a few seconds too late to see the silly boy discover it.Santos knew that it had rattled Shadow though, his face was pinched and his features pale, when he had entered the study, and if it hadn't been for the Alpha's stubborn reluctance to let Isab

Intense lust ripped its way through Shadow's body at Isabella's words as Malik pushed him forward.With his hands fumbling and his libido in overload, the 20-year-old Alpha seriously considered smashing the door in as he dropped the keys for the third time, but Bella's soft chuckles reigned his inner beast in a bit. She nibbled playfully on the side of his neck, swirling her teasing tongue around in circles, right where she would mark him later, and it drove Shadow wild with need."Fuck this." He growled and the front door splintered as he put his foot through it, not letting Bella go for a second.His little wolf could

Something heavy was on her legs. It was warm and hairy, slightly sweaty, and as Isabella followed its natural curve with her hand, she found that it was attached to a giant penis.Now she remembered.A deviant grin blessed her features as Isabella reveled in their incredible night of passion. Shadow had proved insatiable, taking her in different positions in every room of their new home, insisting that they had to mark their 'territory.' After a quick count up, Bella snorted, realizing they had 'marked their territory' twelve times in eight hours, no wonder she was a bit tender downstairs. And a quick glance to her left confirmed that her man was out like a light. After Shadow had had his wicked way with h

" I like this side of you, my love."Santos murmured, popping a green grape in his mouth, and savoring the way it popped when he crunched it. "You are always so serious, if you showed this side of yourself more often, I might be persuaded to give you more of what I gave you in the shower." He finished lustily, reaching for her breast. Maria intercepted his wandering hands, slapping them away."Maria, what the fuck?" The Beta male bellowed, sitting up and glaring at her.They had been lying side by side, reminiscing about old times, and looking at the clouds, pointing out shapes they could see, but clearly, Santos had misread the situation.

They loved through the night, desperate for each other, neither one talking about what tomorrow could bring. Shadow worshipped Bella with everything he had, leaving tears on her body as she left tears on his and after they were done, they held on tightly, weeping together. Malik and Mazlyn had their time, gently coupling as they nuzzled, sharing breath in the midnight air. And as the sun crested the horizon, the soulmates slept, wrapped up in each other, hiding from the beginning of the day.The dining hall was silent as Raeann sat down to breakfast. Mama hadn't returned home last night, so she couldn't ask for advice, and Papa had done the unthinkable. The 15

Chasing Bella's shadow You promised me forever
Shadow felt his breathing begin to slow as he looked up at his mate. He tried to manage a smile, but the pain was too real, and all he could do was grimace as it arced through his torn-up body. Bella was telling him to hold on, that Valenar was reasoning with the threat, but he knew that there wasn't enough time for him, so using the last of his strength, he lifted his hand and gently placed it against her lips. "I waited a lifetime for you, my Bella," he struggled to get out the words, knowing that this was the last time he would feel her touch, "I will search through a thousand lifetimes to find you mate. You have my heart, you have my soul and no matter where you go after I'm gone, know that in your heart I'll always be here." Bella's lips trembled, and her eyes filled with tears as she shook her head at him, "You promised me forever, Shadow, please don't leave me!" As Shadow closed his eyes against the pain, he was vaguely aware of Bella's screams,
Chasing Bella's shadow The choices we make for love.
Down in the cellar, the children were quiet. Some trembled while others bristled, eager to get out amidst the fray and earn their place as pack warriors. When the ground above started trembling, and the hatch heaved as though the earth itself was trying to break in, that's when hysteria hit. Onyx struggled to hold back the retired warriors and mothers whose children were valiantly fighting to keep them safe. The tension grew higher as Onyx barked for them all to calm down. Reason was rapidly going out the window, and Lucifer awakened, shining wrathfully through Onyx's eyes as his leadership was challenged. Then, out of the darkness, a clear voice rose, weaving its way through the pack bunched up in close quarters, and Onyx looked gratefully over at his nephew.Tarakona sang of times gone by, the history of the Howling warriors, and his parents' courtship. He spread calm throughout the cellar as they were all transported back to the time of Shadow and Isabella, the magic of th
Chasing Bella's shadow Pyro Diego
Like the plague, Hael's anger washed through Howling, killing dozens in its wake. Pyro's magic was depleting itself quickly under the onslaught of his friend's fury, and sensing his master's struggle, Barghest's howl signaled his hellhound's arrival in Howling. Unfortunately, the boy had only lasted seconds as Hael tore his intestines out, half-crazed by the thoughts of his mate being with another man. For the first time in their lifelong friendship, Pyro doubted his ability to reign Hael in."Marie is going to make me eat my own balls," He thought grimly as his legs gave way, blood dripping from his ears as Pyro faced his death. He was lucky in the sense that while he would die in this space, as an overlord in Hade's realm, Pyro would end up back where he belonged anyway, and Marie would be waiting to tear him a new one, as she did every time he went on a jaunt with Hael. Barghest came at a run, bowling through half a dozen wolves as Pyro's magic finally deserted him. His fa

Ratchet left Sal's with a full belly and a grin on his face. Maeve was like the ray of sunshine in his life that made everything okay, and whatever it was that she was dealing with, he was sure she would slay it like she did everything else in her life.Lost in his thoughts, Ian reached his bike in no time, grabbing his helmet and pulling his bandana up to keep the bugs out of his teeth. He didn't see the freight train until it hit him full force in his side. Like a spring flinging loose from a trampoline, he sailed through the air landing heavily on his side. "What the fuck?!" He roared, reaching for his handpiece. When Ratchet found who had rammed him, his mouth dropped open, and the gun fell from his boneless fingers. It was the two giants he caught sniffing around Maeve's shop earlier on. Only now, the one called Hael looked like some avenging angel. His eyes glowed with fury, and his muscles quivered with the urge to smash someone's head in. That someone being Ian.

"I had to stay and run the pack!" Lucien barked defensively, crossing his arms and glaring at the pint-sized woman in front of him. Bella's eyes widened, and he swore he could see steam pouring from her ears. "I call bullshit!" She retorted, getting right in his face; her eyes crackled, and the fury held barely in check started to leak out, giving the Luna a frightening look."You haven't been running the pack," Bella brutally pointed out, "You've been curled up in your bed like a teenage girl listening to sad songs and eating ice cream. Why do you think I'm back so early?"Lucien couldn't find an answer for that. But it didn't matter because Bella wasn't finished, "You have thirty minutes to get dressed and pack a bag, I've already organized a replacement bike for you, and my strongest tracker picked up traces of her scent on the Eastern borders. Got and get your woman Lucien, before someone else claims her." She tossed him the keys to his bike and looked at her watch

The ground felt strange beneath his feet. Grass tickled his toes as he wandered along, breathing deeply of the mountainous air. Beside him strode his friend; he was aware of the appreciative stares from females as they passed by and wondered if maybe it was unusual to see humans in Howling, but then again, they weren't really human-now were they?"Of all the places Hael? I'm allowed one free pass from Hell each millennium, and you bring me to Hicksville?" Pyro Diego glanced at his friend, who didn't bother to answer, and hoped for the sixth time that venturing into a wolf pack disguised as humans was a wise choice. Shaetan only knows what Marie will think when he returns home in a few weeks, and he rather liked his balls."She's here, man, I can sense her," Hael muttered as he began to look in the shop windows, and as the demi-gods came to the one on the corner, Hael stopped and took a deep breath, a guttural growl sounding deep in his chest."This is it."

The vortex appeared directly in front of them, and Jarvis shoved Lucy behind him as he prepared to shift. The sound was deafening, and when the light pulsed, expelling a figure from the portal, Jarvis shielded his eyes from the glare."Well, damn, this is a sorry excuse for a welcome, but I'll take it."Bella stood there, cradling the pup gently in her arms. She knew that their luggage was already at home. Lucy and Jarvis looked at her with their eyes popping and jaws dropping as she smiled back at them. Lucy was the first to recover. "You weren't gone for that long, Luna? What is this? Immaculate conception or something?" She drawled, and Bella laughed. It was good to be home."It's a long story, my friend, and will need to wait until Caspian is settled in. Now, where is my foolish mate?" Bella easily took control, and as they continued walking down the street, it was a relief for Lucy to hand over the reins. As she revealed what had transpired in Bella's absen
Chasing Bella's shadow Jarvis arrives
Something was wrong in Howling. As Jarvis pulled up to the local herbal shop, it was obvious that something significant had happened here. Many stores were closed, and the usual hustle and bustle of a small town were missing. It made the lion shifter nervous. He was still in his car, wondering at the best course of action, when a familiar figure jogged straight past him."Lucy!"Lucy turned around, and a huge smile greeted him as she jogged back. Jarvis opened the door and stepped out in time for her to pull him in for a hug. "It's so good to see you," She gushed as they pulled away from each other, and Jarvis noticed her eyes sparkled and her mouth curved easily into a grin. If he were ten years younger, Onyx might have had a fight on his hands for Lucy's affections.As he looked at his friend Jarvis, saw the dark circles under her eyes and the weight she had lost, instinctively knowing that something was really, really wrong.

"I know it's late, but do you think you would like to take a stroll with me?"Thorn felt like he was drowning as he waited for Raeann's answer. He couldn't even turn around to see what her expression was like; he was that nervous. There were several seconds of silence where Thorn thought he might actually throw up. Then with the tiniest of voices, she replied, "I think I'd like that." Expelling a breath he didn't know he was holding, Thorn turned and let his eyes drink in her beauty. Raeann smiled softly, "April tells me that the thermal baths on the other side of the mountain are nice at this time of the morning?" And Thorn almost stumbled over his own tongue as he hastened to agree. Raeann held out her hand for him to grasp, and he did, almost shyly, shivering as the ever-present tingles made their way up his arms.For a time, they walked in silence, taking in the beautiful view of the sun coming up, as they slowly traversed fire mountain. Eventually, it flattened out near t
