Author & story update on delay
Terakhir Diperbarui:
2024-08-17 00:36:03The last update I posted, I was having back issues. Unfortunately a couple of days after posting my mother has been in & out of hospital.
This is all I am willing to say at the moment. I know many are patiently waiting for the final chapters of All the Queens Kings, as well as Renegade Wolves to carry on. I have NOT abandoned the books but it has been a challenge to find my writing groove and sit in front of the computer with so much going on in my personal life. I hope to be able to deliver the final chapters of All the Queens Kings to my wonderful readers very soon ❤️ xx

Renegade Wolves Author update
Dear readers,I wanted to update you on what has been going on behind the scenes as I have not posted a chapter in a while.For the past seven weeks, I had been taking care of my mother while she received in-home hospice care. She finally gave up fighting on October 15th. Before this, she was in and out of hospital with one surgery or another. It has been a long road for me and I still have a few miles to go before I reach a junction or turning point. I will return to writing as soon as the family can officially say goodbye to her. She was an avid reader of this app. My only regret is that I couldn’t finish the final chapters of All the Queens Kings before she passed.Please allow me a little more time and as always, I am thankful for your understanding and support during this difficult time.Much love xx

STIXWhen I wake up in the morning, wiping the sleep from my eyes, my first thought is of the brass button I found last night. Immediately I reach over to the little side table beside my bed and pick it up.Rolling it between my fingers, inspecting it closely. I wonder for the umpteenth time where it had come from and who it belonged to. I only noticed the worn markings on the button in the light of day, which looked to be a branch and scroll. Very curious. I had never seen anything like it.The sun shone through my window, harsh and unforgiving with the promise of yet another hot day.Reluctantly I roll to my side and sit on the edge of my bed. Placing the brass button back where it was. It was my first morning teaching the younger pack members about farming and cultivating produce. After that I was attending training and then my shift at the mill.It was going to be a long torturous day, and I was already dreading it.I stand, stretch, and head for the shower, thinking if I get ready

GABEAs the sun rose and filtered through the dank and dirty windows of my apartment, I lay still, not moving from the couch. The same position I had been in all night. Still staring up at the yellowing ceiling.I hadn’t slept a wink. Thoughts of my past and present plaguing my mind and keeping me in this conscious state.Four things were bothering me and no matter how many times I replayed scenes in my head I just couldn’t pinpoint any of them.One: Where did I know that Beta from?Two: Who told the Crimson Pack about our deal with the Raven Pack?Three: The way the crimson pack treated their membersFour: Could I seriously walk away from this situation knowing what was and is going to befall the Raven Pack?And then there was a fifth. The one I didn’t want to acknowledge or admit to taking up most of my waking hours. Hope Jordan. Why couldn’t I get those big blue eyes and that angry, yet adorabl

GABEJust as recognition hits me, the office door flies open and Seffy strides in looking puzzled. Her dark hair tussled, her lips pursed, and her forehead creased with concern.“Oh, it’s you.” She flatly states. “I thought the cleaning fairies had come. It was the only reason I could come up with that made sense. That or James had cleaned.”I stare at her blankly, still flabbergasted by my self-discovery. A million and one thoughts flew through my brain as I tried to make sense of it and only came up with ‘the situation just became more complicated’.Without a word I stand, leaning over and planting a kiss on Seffy’s head. “I love you little sis.” I barely whisper, still in my own head, and walk out.Ten minutes later I’m outside Killian's small place, banging on his door, and had already woken Jamerson to get his ass up and over here.A ruffled and naked Killian opens his door, confused as to why I was banging on his door so early in the morning.Pushing past him, I make my way into

STIXNot long after I had left my father's office, he took off to meet with the council. There was a melancholy feel around the pack, noticeable in every member including the little ones I was currently educating on the importance of crops and how they sustained our pack.It was less than a week until Alpha Crane's deadline. Despite my name, I felt like there was no hope for me or our pack.“How can vehicles run off oranges and corn?” A little boy asked in a cocky manner, even though I had just finished explaining how it works and the modifications we had made to the tank and engine of our transportation.I give him a grim smile not holding back the exasperated sigh I let out. “You weren’t paying attention, were you?” I say a little condescending.In truth, my thoughts were elsewhere. Not on educating the young pups, especially as we might not have a pack to educate in the near future.

GABEMy first reaction was to ride to Ravens knights pack, to put that little female alpha’s mind at rest. Or maybe because I thought I needed to get her out of my system. I don’t know.Either way, Jamerson had convinced me to slow my roll.We took the rest of the day to hatch a plan and bring some of the zetas in our idea. We were going to need all the manpower we could gather, and we wanted their support and input.Nate pursed his lips, leaning back against the old leather of our usual booth in the bar, after Killian and Jamerson had gone over our plan. We were going to send a team to the Crimson Pack and a team to the Ravens Pack.We would falsely claim we were at the Crimson pack to back them up and pick up the rest of what they owed us for not interfering. While the team at the Raven Knights would sit in wait posing as pack members if and when Alpha Crane made his move to attack them.As for Hope Jordan, I couldn’t figure her into the plan. If the Raven Knights won the pack war, s

GABEThe open road gave me a sense of calmness. My inner wolf was quelled whenever I felt the humid air cooling on my face as we sped along the broken and cracked roads.I had always felt at peace on my bike. The usual thoughts that plagued my mind would take a backseat. Clarity would form as I enjoyed the ride. Like now, the tension slipped from my muscles as I relaxed and formed my body into the bike and listened to the rumbling hum of the engine that vibrated between my legs.Jamerson and I had decided not to stop overnight like I did last time, even if the Crimson pack was a little further.The afternoon blare of heat began to give way somewhat as the blazing sun started to retreat. Dusk fell quickly yet still we rode.As the last of the sun dipped behind the horizon the moon rose casting its yellow glow onto the empty road and over the open terrain. The stars twinkled above -- our map of the land -- though I knew where we were going.It was late when we reached the border of the C

STIX“What do you mean he has been arrested? On what grounds?” Beta Branston bellows at the two council guards, his face becoming a bright red with anger and frustration.Ruby’s hand grabs my arm, her grip almost painful. But I couldn’t think of that at this moment. I was sure my ears had deceived me. “Arrested?” I question loudly, my voice shaking in anticipation of the confirmation from the two men. “Why?”“Your Alpha has gone against the council and pack laws. He has been arrested and placed in a holding cell awaiting trial.” The shorter guard provides in a monotone voice and expressionless face.Beta Branston waives the paper that is securely gripped in his fist, again. “This is absurd!” He growls “He came to the council for help, and you arrest him. On what grounds? And don’t give me your bullshit answer! I want facts!”The two men offer no more insight as to what happened before they stepped back into their fancy car and drove back down our winding road, disappearing in the nigh

Renegade Wolves Chapter 61
STIXGroggily my eyes open and I snuggle against Gabriel, enjoying his warmth and the feel of his hard muscles under my head and fingers as I curled around him tighter. Careful not to lean on his wound.We arrived back at Ravens Knights in the early hours of the morning, happy to say that Seffy and Ruby were safe.The council did come looking for Seffy, but our pack had enough sense to send them packing. Ruby had hidden Seffy in the walls when they demanded to search the pack house and grounds.Gabriel stirs, his long arm reaching over and pulling me on top of him. He smiles, big brown eyes focusing on mine. “Good morning,” he says leaning up to kiss me, wincing when his other arm snakes around my waist.He stops and looks at my bandaged stomach with concern. “It’s fine,” I tell him, looking down and seeing a small amount of blood that had seeped through the bandage. I didn’t have the heart to tell him to be gentle when he took me earlier this morning. I liked his rough hands and the

GABEWe searched the grounds for the beta, councilman, or whatever the fuck Aldric was. Sent scouts to search the territory, even Crimson Moon warriors volunteered to help, stating that he was worse than Crane and was the one who really controlled the pack. He and his division of special council warriors. Unfortunately, there was no sign of him.That was okay because I knew where he was going. Running back to the Abby with his tail tucked between his legs. Either karma or I would catch up with him one day soon.As that thought departed, another entered my mind. The last words he said to me. “We need to go back to the Raven Knights!” I suddenly blurted out, practically issuing an order, thinking of Seffy and what the beta had said.In my fury-driven state to find Hope, his admission had slipped my mind. Panic now rose, fully taking over and I became angry at myself thinking how could I have almost forgotten his threat that Seffy was in danger. I was the worst brother ever.I didn’t wai

STIXKillian’s eyes were wide, a vein ticked in his neck, and he tongued the side of his cheek. I could see how pissed he was that Crane had a hold of me, and he couldn’t do anything to help me. “It’s okay Killian,” I tell him, feeling his frustration and trying to think of a way out of my current situation.Drawing in a deep breath, letting it out slowly and steadily, I thought, this was how I was going to die.After everything I had been through, everything my pack and the renegades had been put through, it was going to end with sadness.A tear fell from my eye at the thought of never seeing Ruby or Josh again. Rolling down my cheek, off the edge of my jaw, and onto Crane’s grimy hand. Another fell because I would never have the chance to be held by Gabriel Grayson again, to feel his touch, or get to know the real werewolf behind his brooding personality.I had fallen in love with the Renegade Alpha without even realizing it. I shudder as I recall the way he made love to me. Those s

STIXWhen I saw the man holding a big silver weapon, I knew what it was. I had been told what guns were but had never seen one until then.My heart plummeted as the ring of a shot rang out, hitting Gabriel. To my surprise and relief, Gabriel didn’t go down. I thought for sure it would have killed him.Then I saw the man aim again and something inside me snapped. Not like the fury or rage I felt towards Alpha Crane, but something more horrified, scared, and desperate. Without even thinking about it, like another being had taken over my body and mind, I shifted into my wolf form, pouncing towards the assailant.My wolves’ teeth latched onto the man's shoulder, gnawing and shaking. Another loud bang sounded, and I felt a burning sensation start in the belly of my wolf. I whimpered as the pain registered, falling on top of the man and then not remembering anything else that happened until now.Gripping the side of my stomach, I sit up looking around. I was in a small hut-like house, other
Renegade Wolves Chapter 57
GABEFacing the five guards, I now stand on the same side of the gate as I quickly and effectively knock them out. Though they didn’t put up much of a fight.A small battalion of fighters appeared as if they had been waiting for us. Some brandished knives and a sword or two, most were prepared to face us using hand-to-hand combat.This was an all-and-out brawl, a fight I had been needing for a long time. I was in my essence, punching, kicking, and clotheslining anyone who came near as I headed towards the main house in search of Hope.Adrenaline pumped through me, the feral wild inside waking and demanding to come out and play. I was hyper-sensitive and aware of my surroundings, my eyes were sharp as the wolves,’ my ears keen and listening, focusing on the shadows and adjusting to any bright lights.I tore at my shirt feeling restrained, discarding the fabric to the floor. I could see Crane in the distance, and I homed in on his location, making a beeline for the revolting alpha. Leav

STIXThe sound of a howl, loud, deep, threatening, eerie, and full of the promise of death, sends a shiver down my spine.I rise from the cold floor, wrapping my hands around the bars of my cell. I don’t know how, but I knew that howl was Gabriel. One after another, several more howls could be heard. I recognized my pack, the others I did not but I knew they had come for me.I relished the thought that Gabriel was here, and maybe he was here to rescue me, I used the emotions that came with it to ignite my determination.Despite my current situation and condition, a wave of arousal rolled over me as I thought of the renegade alpha.It was time for me to get out of here and join them. I use the hairpin, shoving it in the lock and wiggling it around, trying to find the latch. A few seconds and a little more wiggling and the joyful sound of the latch clicking open, filled my ears.Slowly pushing the barred door open, I looked around, making sure no one was there. But they had left me down

GABEImpatiently, I gave Crane his ten minutes. I paced in front of the gates, my eyes flicking between the worn asphalt and the other side of the iron gate as I waited for the weak alpha to show himself.The evening had turned darker, and the heat of the day was turning humid. Jamerson and Killian stood silently waiting.I was testy at best, wild, and livid. My nostrils flared with each heavy step as I anticipated Crane showing himself. The vein in my neck twitches and pulses. My stomach began to ache as if I had been punched, and a flare of anxiety wracked through me suddenly.Beneath my own heated feelings, I felt something else. More like someone else’s. I knew it was Hope. It was as if she was right there and I could feel her, smell her.Just as I had had enough of waiting, my patience running out—feeling that time had run out for Hope, I growled out menacingly, ready to lead an attack on the Crimson Moon pack—I see the shadowed figure of Crane come strolling down the road.He st

STIXFeeling better after drinking the water and biting into the orange—sucking all the juices, I left the soup untouched—It didn’t smell right, and I wasn’t about to let myself be drugged once more. I sat at the end of the bed and waited.It feels like hours, and it probably was, by the way the light shining through the slats shifted and the room became darker when the clunking of the locks could be heard again.Jumping to my feet, I’m not quick enough before Alpha Crane and the same woman who brought the food come into the room, followed by two guards. I’m not sure what I was going to do but I bolted for the door, only to be stopped.Crane’s hands fly out grabbing my upper arms and holding me back. “You are more resourceful than I gave you credit for.” He says, pulling my body against his and making me cringe as I feel his arousal press against my leg.“You idiot!” I scald the older alpha. “You know you’re going to pay for this. My pack and the renegades will come for me!”Pinching

GABEI got Jamerson on the radio. He and Dynamite Al had been patiently waiting for any movement from the Crimson Pack. “I sent out a scout, but nothing. The patrol guards are in position, they seem to be taking extra care in watching their borders today. Otherwise, there’s no movement, the only suspicious thing is that they aren’t or haven’t appeared to prepare to launch an attack on Raven Knights.”I mull over his words, more than sure that Crane had Hope now. I couldn’t think of any other reason why Crane wouldn’t be making his play.Beta Branston and Gamma Elijah agreed with my theory. There was no one else, any of us could think of who would kidnap Hope. And after what the Crimson Moon beta had pulled in my hometown, it wasn’t a so far-fetched theory.That simmering rage that sat just below the surface began to boil again, rising to the surface as I thought of them taking Hope and what they had done to Cassidy. They had taken women from our town, abused them, and now Hope.I wasn
