I walked to class going over what Tyler had told me about his mate. She chose a higher rank and then allowed him to suffer for it. The question is, is the story true or something for him to use to try and relate to what I told him on my birthday? He’s had plenty of time to come up with something
“What the hell was that all about?” “He was trying to get you to avoid the run for some reason.” Mina chimes in. “But what does he have to lose or gain if you don’t go?” “He seemed overly angry for something so small.” “It’s possible you are getting in the way of something he is trying to accompl
I don’t know about this. I have never been with the group alone before. I don’t know why it scares me, but I have a really bad feeling about it. But, I guess if I have a bad feeling then maybe it’s better that Mina is away from the mess if something happens. It’s one less person to keep track of
“You know it’s not less creepy when I know you’re here somewhere and I can’t see you or smell you right?” I say out into my yard. I figure he’s being extra strange because he knows Robbie talked to me today. And I have to play along like it’s cute and not a major red flag. Tyler steps out from th
“I’m sorry, I wish I could help you somehow.” We stopped running about an hour in and are just walking around campus now. “But you can’t. You are destined for more than me.” I roll my eyes at him, “You keep saying that, but you don’t have any real proof of that do you?” “You are smart enough t
“Thank you. This has been an experience, I appreciate everything that you both have taught me so far.” “Don’t act like we are saying goodbye, Midge. We have no idea what we will find tomorrow. We could bring down a whole operation, hopefully. Or we could just be scratching the surface and take
I didn’t sleep well in the few hours that I did try. I am restless and if I am being honest with myself, I am eager. We have been at this for months now, almost a year, and we finally have information to move on and take action. I would be lying if I said I wasn’t excited that we were finally goi
“Yes and no, but more no. He just seemed distracted and like something else had his full attention.” “Someone and something both have his full attention. So you aren’t wrong.” That glimmer of irritation flashes in his eyes again, but he schools it quickly before turning fully to me. “You ready, I
Thank you all so much for reading my story and sticking with me for the long haul. This book was over a year and a half in the making and all the support and comments have truly been inspiring. I appreciate you all more than you know. I am a new writer and learning as I go and you have all shown
Epilogue 85 years later.“There’s no way you’re going to make that happen.” Silas is challenging Mack to a timed speed race. “What’s going on here?” Cam slades up behind me, wrapping me in his arms.“The boys just heard about the challenges we used to do and that I beat all of you guys at one ti
Epilogue 7“You couldn’t just ask one of our warriors for a meeting? You had to interrupt our family dat and demand we see you here.” Oliver comes up next to me.“Seriously? There’s no way any of you would have seen me, and you never would have let her talk to me. If she was my mate, I wouldn’t l
Epilogue 6I was kept in the hospital for a full week after I woke up. Sierra’s parents took all kinds of samples for testing and actually packed a bunch up from me and the girls to take back to their lab to see if they can find a pattern or a way to help our family in the future. Elena and Gentry
Epilogue 5“Yep. On it.” Dakota blurts, momentarily disturbing the tiny girl in his arms. He recovers quickly whispering to her, holding her close to his face and smiling like an idiot, but she loves it smiling at the sound of his voice, or maybe his familiar scent. I'm not sure what they can sens
“I think you’ll find giving us three pups will wear you out a bit.” Oliver says sitting next to me gently tilting his pile of blankets.The tiniest most precious face I have ever seen peeks out. She’s barely the size of his forearm, but looks completely at home snuggled into him. I look at Oliver’s
Epilogue 4“No! Stop that thought right there. Once we start that, I get nothing done the rest of the day.” I put my finger up in his face then move past him to wash my hands, which is another amazing feat since I have to stand sideways. He just laughs behind me. They used to try to hide when th
Epilogue 3“What do we do? What can we do to make this better for you?” Cam climbs behind me, resting against the wall of pillows behind us and pulling me back between his legs. Oliver’s head drops to the bed unceremoniously.“Not okay man.” He half grumbles, half laughs, then crawls towards me t
“We’ll talk more about this tomorrow.” She turns to run at Sam, I’m sure crying again. This hormone sh*t is no joke.Before I can even think about her fast retreat, I am scooped up and carried away. Oliver’s honey scent doesn’t surprise me as I bury my face in his neck to calm my nerves. We obvi
