(James POV)

“Evelyn is your half-sister,” I said softly.

Lily stared at me silently for what felt like forever…. and then she sat down in the chair again… and started laughing.

“I did not know that I could laugh so hard at a time like this. Thank you, James.”

“Lily?”

“That was a really good joke. I almost believed you.”

“Lily, my love, I am not joking,” I said seriously.

Lily rolled her eyes. “Of course, you are. Evelyn and I look a lot alike. I look just like my mother. There is no way that my mother had another pup and did not tell us. She worshipped Stephanie largely because she was having so much trouble having a pup back then.”

I took both of Lily’s hands in my own. “Sweetheart, you do look a lot like Margie. I agree with you on that. But you also look a lot like your dad, too.”

Lily stopped laughing.

“You aren’t seriously suggesting what I think that you are suggesting, are you?”

I frowned. “I am so sorry, Lily. I know this is hard to hear.”

God bless Dr. Hyder for being such a good father to all of them. He loves his son but also loves all these young ones he’s taken under his wing. I say Head of the Council should be Dr. Hyder!!

They both come from very broken families…so sad. At least they have each other now and can start their own family. They’ll be incredible parents!!

    (Stephanie POV) My heart racing, I immediately began looking for my mother. I could not find her anywhere. “Mom!” I shouted in the mind-link. “Where are you?!!?” “I am in the Steffie Garden with Jane and Sheila. Are you okay?” “I am on my way!” I replied. I hurried downstairs and cut through the packhouse kitchen, shoving any omegas who dared to get in my way. A couple of them fell and began crying, but that was their problem. I needed to get to my mother as quickly as possible. I finally arrived, finding her having afternoon tea with Jane and Sheila. The Steffie Garden had been built and named after me after I “died.” It had previously been used as a lounge for omegas during their breaks, but my mother wanted an interior garden space dedicated to my memory, and this was the only room that was not only big enough but that could also have large portions of the roof replaced with glass to allow a sufficient amount of sunlight. The best part about the Steffie Garden was th

    Urgh. Seriously. Why do people keep bringing Jackson up?!? Jackson was part of my past. James is my future. “Jackson is with his father.” “But you are his mother.” “Not anymore. His father is more than capable of taking care of him.” “Don’t you care about your own flesh and blood?” "URGH. SHUT UP ALREADY," I thought to myself. I needed to figure out how to close this little chapter once and for all. The last thing that I need is the topic of Jackson and Antonio interfering with my relationship with James. I had been thinking for months about how to solve the Jackson/ Antonio problem, but I had not had any good ideas. But then, the solution hit me. Right when I needed it the most. Granted, the solution was a bit cliché and a bit overused, but who was going to have the guts to challenge me on it? I covered my face with my hands and forced myself to start crying. “Are you okay, honey? What is wrong?” “Mom, it’s just… Jackson… it is so hard for me every time someone b

    Author Note: The Inspiration Have you ever wondered where the inspiration for a story comes from? I know I have... and for this book, I promised you a while back that I would tell you. So here goes. I mentioned to a friend in passing that I wrote "My Mate's Wedding Drama." That one was written as sort-of a fun, funny project. Not very serious. Something VERY different from my day job. She asked me, "Is that some sort of therapy for you?" "Therapy for what? I don't need therapy." "Well, with your dad in town... and everything with your mom and sister...." "Oh.... Ohhhhhhhhhh...." And somehow that was literally all it took. Mated in the Shadow of My Sister was born. I feel sort-of disingenuous saying I wrote it, because it largely wrote itself. More often than not, the characters took over my keyboard as I typed, or they started yelling plot points to me in the shower or while I was driving. It was sort of a wild ride, to be honest. To get this book done, I have gott

    When she did not say anything for a few minutes, I decided to go ahead and give her the message I was supposed to deliver earlier. “Evelyn, this may sound a little weird, but I had an opportunity to talk to the Moon Goddess several months ago.” “Because you are the chosen one,” she said, not lifting her head off of the table. Ok, it is definitely the jailhouse newsfeed. “Yes. She gave me a message that I was supposed to give to you when I saw you. I am sorry that I did not give you the message earlier, but everything sort of happened really quickly…” “What was the message?” Evelyn asked. Her head remained sideways on the table, but her tone was curious. “She said that you sometimes ask her a question when you pray. It is usually the same question, and she wanted to answer it for you.” Evelyn sat up. “What… what was the answer?” “Yes, she will and more.” Evelyn began smiling and crying at the same time. “I assume you understand the message?” I asked curiously. Evelyn nod

    (Lily POV) After I arrived back at Black Moon, I met Charlotte for a quick lunch. We then headed to the dungeon visiting room together, where Evelyn was already chained to a table waiting for us. Like Stephanie and Sheila, she was being taken good care of, but she nevertheless looked awful. “How are you, Evelyn?” I asked. “As good as can be expected, being this pregnant and in here,” she sighed. “You wanted to meet with us?” I asked politely. “Yes, thank you. I know it may seem crazy for me to reach out to you after everything that happened, but my wolf trusts you. And Charlotte, Sammy talks so highly of you every time he comes to see me.” For the briefest moment, I half wondered if we were in the right visiting room. This was not the Evelyn that called me and Charlotte whores as recently as her trial. This Evelyn seemed very, very different. “What is going on, Evelyn?” Charlotte asked. Evelyn sighed. “This pup is going to be arriving soon, and I need a plan. I ori

  • Mated in the Shadow of My Sister    Chapter 0271

    (Lily POV) Another couple of months have passed, and the trials in both packs have finally all been completed. I am currently on my way to see Evelyn at Black Moon. I need to finally deliver to her the message that the Moon Goddess gave me, and she also wants to talk to Charlotte and I about her plans for her unborn pup. Like all of the other trials, Evelyn’s trial is now over. She was sentenced to 25 years in the dungeons. That was a harsh sentence, but she did not lose her wolf. When I talked to Edy, she told me that she wanted to stay with Evelyn. She said that Evelyn had lost her way, but buried under all of the jealousy and pain, she really did have a good heart. Interestingly, those sentiments were very similar to the ones that I received from most of the wolves that I talked to. In fact, with the exception of the council member wolves that I freed on the night of the takeovers, the only other wolves who wanted to be freed from their humans were those belonging to Ste

    Am I done dealing with the past? No. There is more work to be done and issues to be dealt with —including Sheila’s pup; Stephanie’s pup; my father; and Evelyn. But for now I will take a short break from the drama and celebrate.... because tonight is an important night. It is both my mate’s birthday, and Brady and Charlotte’s pre-wedding bash. **** (James POV) If you told me a few months ago that I would be spending my birthday voluntarily enjoying a beer with Brady Hyder, I would have checked you into a mental hospital. And yet here we are. Joey is here too. The three of us are currently at the bar, watching our mates on the dance floor, taking bets on which one of us is going to cave and go to them first. It is amazing how things can change. It is also amazing how much I actually like Brady now… at least most of the time. Of course, it helps that our mates are such good friends. It has forced us to learn to get along. Lily, Charlotte, and Jessica have all practically a

    (Lily POV) It has now been five weeks since the pack and council takeovers. Since then, there has been a whirlwind of activity both inside and outside of the pack. Randall and Jane’s belongings were boxed up and moved to (separate) storage units, and James and I moved in to the alpha suite. Meanwhile, the belongings of my parents and Stephanie have also been packed up so that Joey and Jessica could move in. All photographs and shrines to Stephanie have been taken down and repurposed, and the Steffie Garden has been given a very not-sexy new name: “Staff Break Room.” Additional tables and benches have been added to accommodate the re-purposing of the space. Similar changes have occurred throughout the pack. The individual trials are well underway. My mother’s trial was first. I decided to recuse myself from any decision making related to her punishment, both because I am both her daughter and one of her victims. I also decided not to attend the trial, sending James to obser
