Firstly, I would like to acknowledge a few people who have made this book possible.
Lyv Aiken, my fellow author you were with me right from the start and truly helped me so much on my journey. You guided me through a process I knew nothing about and coached me when I needed it. moreover, you became a friend to me who understood my life. For that, I will forever be thankful.
R L Dickinson, my fellow author, you are some whole lotta crazy, but in a good way. You are like me, but a northern version. Thank you for offering to be my beta, to begin with, but you quickly became my friend and one who I don’t think I could get rid of or want to for that matter. You have had my heartbreaking, my cheeks hurting and a few times, you’ve had me like “whaaaaat”, but obviously in a good way. Thank you for being you and believing in me.
To my Beta ladies, Kemely, Missy and Rachel (and you Bec aka R L Di

FINDING YOU CHAPTER 1 - THE PUPPET AND THE PUPPET MASTER
~MILLIE WALKER~“Maybe you should slow down, Dan?” I said softly as the sound of empty bottles clunked in the recycling bin as I dropped one more inside.“I think you are fucking useless. Don’t you agree?” He said with a bitter tongue. “Just like the useless Muntjac deer, I shoot so easily.”I sighed and ignored his goading comment. He knew his words would hurt me, especially as I wo
FINDING YOU CHAPTER 2 - LOOK AT ME NOW
~MILLIE~“What do I do?” My voice sounded just about audible, as though life was being drained slowly from my body. “I can’t leave.” We both knew Dan wouldn’t let me go that easily or I would have left years ago.“Yes, you fucking can! Leave this shit for that arsehole to sort out and grab your things and move in with me. This is your chance now!”“But he will find me…You know he will!&rd
FINDING YOU CHAPTER 3 - I CAN'T DO IT
~AIDEN MULROSS~“GET OUT!” I demanded, pushing my body upright from the chair. My fists slammed into the ebony table beneath them, causing a vibration to ricochet off the expensive wooden surface. Silence quickly followed as the room stilled. No one contested me. They didn’t even dare to give me eye contact. Good… I would happily spill their blood at any attempt of interaction. With my expression fixed, I scanned the room. Now was not the time to try and compromise with me, so why are these bastards still sat in their seats? Are they scared to move? Mmm, damn right they should be. Or… Are they challenging my authority?
FINDING YOU CHAPTER 4 - THE CABIN
~MILLIE~“Urgh.” My alarm clock buzzed on the drawers next to my bed. Reluctantly, I extended my arm out from the warmth of the covers and turned it off. Ahh, another sleepless night. Dan plagued my subconscious mind during the midnight hours, tormenting me with the same reoccurring dream. A dream where I appear to be happily walking down the street on a hot summer’s day. The warmth from the sun-kissed the bare skin of my arms and legs and a gentle breeze playfully danced with the fabric of my beautiful knee-length dress. The scene is perfect. I'm completely lost within that moment. But then it changes. The sun hides behind thick black clouds as the atmosphere turns cold. Dan appears out of nowhere. Right in front of me with
FINDING YOU CHAPTER 5 - WOLVES
~MILLIE~It seemed like we had been speaking for hours. I was completely entranced by her every word, eagerly awaiting more. April was a beautiful person, both inside and out. I could tell she cared so much for all wildlife, regardless of how big or how small, and no matter how dangerous some of the animals could be. I learned that she set up the animal shelter when she was only 17 years old. She had watched a game hunter shoot a deer. The shot wasn’t enough to kill the deer, allowing it to run off, however, it was enough to cause a nasty infection which would have resulted in a slow and painful death. Somehow, she managed to capture it, treat it and nursed it back to health before releasing it into the wild. This was just one of the ma
FINDING YOU CHAPTER 6 - THE AIR REEKED OF THEM
~AIDEN~“I want you to set up more patrols around our borders, both day and night. Ensure at least two wolves are together at a time. I don’t want to see or hear of any single wolf out on watch.” My anger-filled words seeped through my gritted teeth as I looked down at the dead body of one of my pack members. Over Gilly. He was an excellent person and a strong wolf. How the hell did he end up like this, he was always on the ball. Something didn’t add up. I sighed as I looked away from his lifeless form. My wolf’s howl tore through my body as he paced my mind. He valued him, as did I.“Yes, Alpha.” Jojo, one of my
FINDING YOU CHAPTER 7 - A MULTITUDE OF CORRUPTION
~AIDEN~Looking at my watch, I rolled my eyes. The time seemed to be tricking me. For what felt like minutes, were really seconds, and hours were that of minutes. Without removing my gaze, I watched the second’s hand on my watch face creep up to the next number, like a tiny predator ready to catch its next meal. God, was I really comparing my watch to a wild miniature beast? I suppose that highlights how interested I am right now… Ugh… I much as I need Jarrad’s help right now, his voice was slowly killing me. So monotone… So boring. A bit like him... Actually, a lot like him. His sister Tia should have been born a male to take the Alpha position. She certainly has more balls.
FINDING YOU CHAPTER 8 - I HAVE NEEDS, YOU HAVE NEEDS
~AIDEN~The past few weeks were demanding, both on my body and my mental capacity. Work just seemed to be getting busier and not to mention the hive of activity at the Packhouse. Every pack member was on high alert. Meetings followed by meetings, and more goddamn meetings took place almost daily. Combat drills, endurance exercise and weight training happened in between those fucking meetings. Thankfully, no more deaths had been reported however there had been two attacks which were close to the human borders. Once again, nothing was found at the scenes. With every day that passed, I grew more impatient by the lack of evidence and how these bastards were continuing to go unnoticed. I sighed frustratedly, as I removed my hands from the laptop a

FINDING YOU CHAPTER 52 — NEW BEGINNINGS
~MILLIE~ Some things in life are guaranteed, like the beautiful sound of the bird’s song as the sun begins to rise or like how the sun sets in the evening, bringing with it a breeze of chilled air that is sure to flush your skin with a gentle tingle, awakening the hairs on your arms. But at my ripe old age, you come to realise that there are still so many things in life, that are not guaranteed. Like falling in love for a start. People often say that love will walk right up to you and smack you square in the face when you least expect it, you know when you’re minding your own business or trying to move on with your life in a certain direction. Who that lover will be, God only knows but what I do know, is that you have no control over it, no matter how hard you try to gip it by the horns and show it who’s boss? You simply end up succumbing to its overbearing power, allowing it to flood your senses and inevitably, turning you into a mushy version of your former self. &
FINDING YOU CHAPTER 51 — THE ENDING
~TIA~“Pick up your phone, dammit! Why isn’t he picking up his phone?” I screeched, hurling my phone across the room. Dan hadn’t answered once again, in fact, he hadn’t accepted any of my phone calls since I arrived at the Dark witch’s house, who, for all the bitter and twisted DNA that made her, she had a relatively normal name. Miranda.No one answered me. Miranda continued to sway in her old and tatty rocking chair next to the fireplace and Elder Richard remained quiet as he sat at the head of the dining table.I raised one simple eyebrow in response to their ignorance. Do they not realise how important this all is? Dan could have killed Aiden for all we knew, and the unknown was now beginning to eat away at me.Miranda scowled and then moved her head with a patronising tilt.“Don’t Miranda, just don&rsq
FINDING YOU CHAPTER 50 - I CAN FIND ME
~MILLIE~“Drop the fucking gun.” Dan hissed, the rounded metal pushing harder against my skull, I exhaled a breath I didn’t know I was holding, and a single salty tear escaped out of the corner of my eye and rolled down my chilled cheek, finding its way into the crease of my lip. My eyes fluttered unconsciously, clinging onto the vison of Aiden who was still being attacked and although he was holding his own, more men appeared to be jumping on his wolf as quickly as he was tossing them to the ground.With the safety still off and one bullet remaining in the chamber, I felt my way along the cold steel guard that protected the trigger, before placing my finger onto the piece of metal that would allow me to take out another hunter.I won’t let them kill Aiden, they won’t take him away from me.I felt possessed, my mind had been overtaken by an unstoppable fo
FINDING YOU CHAPTER 49 — A PROMISE OF DEATH
~MILLIE~The sight before me was nothing short of barbaric. I hadn't really looked properly when Dan attempted to encourage my view but now, with the shape side of a silver blade to my throat, I had no choice. It was as though I was watching a high-definition thriller movie on a big screen. Blood was literally spraying into the moonlit sky, limbs were being torn from the human hunters as though they were merely a rag doll held together by some flimsy stitching, and even though it appeared that the supernatural werewolves were the winning team, they weren't without injury.As much as I wanted to screw my eyes tight, blocking out the blood-filled rage, I couldn’t. I needed to see Aiden. I needed to know he was ok, and it wasn't long before my clouded vision spotted his overly large wolf.He howled, stilling the other wolves from their fight before all heads turned to face us.Come
FINDING YOU CHAPTER 48 - RAISING HELL
~MILLIE~My eyes scanned over the lifeless body slumped on the floor, and even though her head was twisted in the wrong direction, there was a part of me that wanted confirmation that she was gone. “Shit,” I breathed, “I-is she dead?” I asked, my orbs still affixed. He hummed, validating my suspicions. I sighed, slightly relieved that I didn’t need to use the rifle that rested in my hands. My gaze lifted, passing the corpse to her executioner’s bare feet and shins.“Well, as far as introductions go, this is a first.” He said, a hint of humour in his tone.“Huh,” I mumbled, not really hearing what he said.“Errm, maybe this would be an easier encounter if you weren’t still pointing the gun in my direction? After all, I did just save your life,” He chuckled.“Oh, yeah, shit
FINDING YOU CHAPTER 47 — THE PENDANT'S MAGIC
~AIDEN~“For fucks sake,” I growled, looking down at my unresponsive phone. It must have turned off by accident when I nearly killed Jarrad. I found my gaze subconsciously lifting to see the side of his face and my blood instantly ran hot with anger. His heart rate increased, he knew I was boring a hole into his head and he sensed my rising fury, but he continued to focus on the blackened road around us. ‘Stop it Aiden,’ I thought to myself with a grunt as I forcefully pushed the power button on my phone, waiting for it to spring to life.“N-nearly there.” Jar
FINDING YOU CHAPTER 46 - MONSTER
~MILLIE~The door scuffed against the floor as it closed, and just like that, she was gone. No, she can’t have just gone. “Come back! Come back you bitch!” I yelled against my restricted body, but the door remained shut. Where was she going? Who did she need to see? Panic began to race through my body as question upon question entered my mind. Everyone I cared for was now in danger and I needed to do something… Anything. Feeling empowered to save my loved ones, I pushed myself up. I felt strong. I felt galvanised.I felt Dan slam my body back down against the tabletop.
FINDING YOU CHAPTER 45 — THE REUNION
~MILLIE~His fist connected with the delicate skin on my cheek, stinging it in an instant. I shrieked and curled up into a tight foetal position, hiding my face from further impact. My eyes flushed with water, not from tears packed with misery, but from the throbbing pain radiating across the left side of my face. Yes, it hurt like a bitch, but what alarmed me the most was the surprise of his punch. He hardly ever hit me in the face.It would attract too much attention to you’,was his excuse, almost like he was doing me a favour. Instead, he would purple my torso and limbs in various shapes and sizes.
