Down to Business
I wasn’t waiting for anyone anymore. Perhaps a more intelligent person would have. But I was mad. I was mad at Jason for coming into my life and ruining the school. I was mad at Cody for sending me to another realm. I was mad at Mage Jaye for lying to me and trying to get my sympathy while she was stalling, and I figured she probably wasn’t even actually crying in the first place. So I transformed myself into an eagle and took off for Cody’s cabin, sun up and everything, ready to kick some evil mage ass.
While I was flying a few other birds joined in alongside me. I wasn’t sure who they all were or how they’d gotten there, except for one. The pink flamingo was having trouble keeping up, but I was glad she was there. I’d much rather have Fionna Flamingo on my side than against me.
It took about a half an hour for

Mage of Wolves Practical Magic
The blast from Cody was direct, but it wasn’t meant to kill me, I soon realized. He was trying to move me again. Whether he wanted me to go back to the realm I’d left the day before, the one he and Fionna had made, or someplace else, I couldn’t say. What I did know was that I wasn’t going to let him send me away again, not if there was anything at all that I could do about it.“Cody!” I shouted as I held up my staff to deflect the blow. “What are you doing?”“You shouldn’t be here, Harlow! It’s too dangerous!” he said.“Then stop trying to kill me!” I countered.“I’m not trying to kill you! I’m trying to save you!”
Mage of Wolves Clearing the Air
The ringing in my ears continued as I looked around the aftermath of the blast of Cody’s power I had sent back at him. Everyone was down on the ground and still. Everyone. I was the only one still standing.At first, I thought I’d made a grievous mistake and accidentally killed my own packmates, friends, and fellow mages along with Cody and his asshole mages who came here to mess everything up and make my life a living hell. But as the ringing in my ears started to die away, I began to see signs of life.My wolves stirred first, picking themselves up off of the ground. Ben was closest to me, so I ran over to him to see if he was okay. Dropping on one knee, I looked in his eyes. “Are you all right? Did I hurt you?”He couldn’t talk in his wolf form, and I still couldn’t hear
Mage of Wolves Flock of Lies
The flock of birds was coming straight for us, and all I could think about was protecting my pack. I had my staff at the ready, and as tired as I was, I was determined not to go down without a fight. That’s why it made no sense to me when I looked over at Mage Jaye and saw her jumping up and down, clapping her hands. “What are you doing?” I asked her, my forehead crinkled in confusion. “They came! They came!” she shouted. “I knew they couldn’t stay mad at me forever!” It dawned on me then that these birds were not another monstrous thunder of dragons bearing down on us to dislodge our souls from our bodies and dismember us, leaving our innards strewn about the forest. No, these were the reinforcements Jaye had sent for. “Are you shitting me?” I asked her. She was too
Mage of Wolves Night Call
I collapsed in my bed that night--alone. I’d found a place for Fionna to sleep. She had whined and asked why she couldn’t sleep with me, but I told her I needed to be alone because my head hurt, and she seemed to understand that. It wasn’t too much of a lie. I definitely had a headache. Or two. I tried to go to sleep. It was nice to be home. I’d taken a shower to wash away all of the left over awful mage residue. I was exhausted, and I hadn’t been in my own bed for a long time. Sleeping in the forest, whether it’s the one right outside my door or the one that Fionna created in her bizarro world, is not that comfortable. The last night I’d slept in my bed hadn’t been comfortable either, so I was due a good night’s sleep. So of course I couldn’t fall asleep. I just kept lying there on my back, staring up at the ceiling, like somehow my mind would just turn off
Mage of Wolves River of Secrets
I woke up the next morning confused. I wasn’t alone, but it wasn’t Sam who was with me. Nor was it Ben. Thank God it wasn’t Fionna. I gathered all of this before I even opened my eyes. My sense of smell was nothing compared to my wolves’ but I knew a Raven when I smelled one.I sat up, leaning on one elbow and looked at the clock. “Shit. We’re late for school,” I said.“We’re not going to school today, Harlow,” she said.“Why not? Haven’t we missed enough already in the last few weeks?”“Sure, but it’s Saturday.”I stared at her like she was the crazy one and then fell back on my pillows. She was sitting next to me, her legs
Mage of Wolves A Talk with an Ostrich
The urge to shift into a wolf and go off tearing through the forest looking for Sam was difficult to subdue, but I found a way to fight it. I knew I was acting irrationally at the moment, and I just needed to calm down before I talked to him. Was I happy that he was out in the woods with Starla? Of course not! Was I going to handle it like a mature mage who knew how to take care of her business? Also no. But what I was going to do was give myself some time to chill out before I went off the deep end. If there’s one thing I can definitely say about Ben Peterson it’s that he knows how to keep his shit together in situations where other people would’ve lost it like a bathroom stall in Taco Bell. So I was going to take a page out of Ben’s playbook and not lose it on Sam. For a while.Instead, I made my way out to the old school site to see what was going on there. It was a pile of rubbl
Mage of Wolves Planning for What Comes Next
It all sounded too good to be true. Mage Jaye was gone, and I didn’t even have to talk to her before she went. Fionna was going to be leaving with Mage Ostrich to go to a school where they might actually be able to help her, which was great because, as fond of her as I was growing, she needed help beyond what I was able to give her, and the School for Mages was no longer in my back yard.I was going to miss some of these people when they left, though. I wanted to talk to them and see if there was a chance a few of them would want to join my pack, but I needed to talk to my wolves first, and I wasn’t sure there was going to be time for that before they all left. For all I knew, Mage Ostrich had already sent everyone packing except for the ones that had flown in with him the night before. I hoped that wasn’t the case. I wanted to see them again at least to say goodbye, and I hadn’t re
Mage of Wolves Choices to Be Made
Trying not to let Sam’s words cut into my heart like a dagger plunged in by an enemy mage was not working. I stared at him for several seconds before I finally had to ask, “Why is that?”He shrugged, and his face took on a sympathetic expression, like he was sorry he’d been so harsh. “I don’t know, Harlow. I guess it’s easier to be mad at you than it is to be mad at me because he knows how I feel.”“So… you came calling at my window last night, came in looking all irresistible and wanting me, and it’s my fault that we fooled around?”Sam shrugged. “I didn’t say it made sense. I’m just telling you how he feels.”I folded my arms. “What did he say exactly?” I realiz
