My mouth opened and then closed. It took me a minute to process that Kelsie was being serious.
“He’s mated.”
She scoffed. “To that she-wolf? Please. They are all but estranged.”
“He has kids. Like…my nephew and niece.”
Kelsie shrugged. “So he didn’t wait. It’s fine. I’m not either.”
My eyes narrowed. “What do you mean ‘wait’?”
Kelsie looked at me with a look that I had seen in Sky when she talked about Justin. “I know he’s my mate, Emmett. I don’t know how. I just do. I can feel it. It sucks. I wish I could fucking ignore it. I wish I could rip it out of my heart and body. I can’t though. I can just watch the train wreck that’s happening.”
“I’m sorry.” It was so immediately out of my mouth that it shocked us both.
“I don’t…I don’t

Sky continued to apologize over and over between her own sobs. Pulling up my knees, I curled up in the corner of the couch. I tried to take a breath but it didn’t help. My head was shaking, trying to convey that she didn’t need to apologize. She couldn’t see me though. I knew she couldn’t. I felt her absence like a hole in my soul.“Em…don’t cry…please…”I chuckled through my tears. “It’s a little late for that.”She also tittered and goddess it was good to hear. “I guess it is. How…how are you? Are you doing okay? Father isn’t…they haven’t…”Bowing my head down, I sighed. “I’m fine, Sky. Really. I’m not making waves so I’m not getting splashed.”A huge sigh was let out on her side. “I was so worried. You have no idea. I couldn’t…I couldn’t imagine what they would do to

Why did it seem like the floor was falling from beneath me? Why did I feel like my carefully curated plans were all falling apart? I looked out the window of the attic. My eyes stared down at the chessboard. My foot came up and I kicked the board across the room. The pieces exploded around the room and the board imbedded itself into the wood beam of the roof.“FUCK!”I picked up the smaller bookcase that was at the head of my mattress and threw it across the room. The books scattered and the shoddy work of the shelf made the lid come off. It wasn’t enough. I felt like I needed to destroy everything. Everything was wrong. This was all wrong. How the hell was I supposed to fix this?There were a few things left. My alarm clock flew across the space and the pieces fell all over the floor, mixing with everything else. There was a lamp, shattered. Sky’s laptop, destroyed. Her phone, that had been sitting on the shelf, fell to pieces. Nothing w

I slammed open Dad’s office door and stomped in. Beta Andrew was leaning over the desk and they were probably talking about something important but I didn’t care. My dad looked up and his eyes narrowed.“Now is not a good time, Sebastian.”I scoffed. “I don’t care. Beta Andrew, leave. Now.”Beta Andrew looked to Dad but my dad just nodded and he stood. His eyes were on me as he left but as soon as the door shut, I gave the now-closed-door a middle finger. I heard my father sigh as he got up and turned around to grab the box out of the bookshelf. I pulled one of the chairs forward and sat close to his desk as he set up his personal chess board. Grabbing the white set, I set it up on my side.“What do you want, Sebastian?”

Out of the corner of my eyeI could see Justin standing in the doorway. He had his usual blank look on his face. There was a lack of shift and he looked like he was wearing Caleb’s sweats. They didn’t quite fit him right. Justin was the last person I wanted to see. I moved the spatula around the pan to make sure the vegetables I put in didn’t stick to the side.“I haven’t seen Caleb today. Sorry.”He hummed and came over to see the food I had out. “Stir fry?”Nodding, I turned and threw in some strips of leftover beef. The front door opened and shut with Caleb making a ruckus as he came into the kitchen.“I knew something smelled good. You making enough for everyone?”He started to reach in to grab something out of the pan and I slapped his hand away. “Get your own!”“Come on! I just had a tough trainin

*** Skylar’s POV ***I continued to hit the punching bag even though I knew I needed to replace it. It was hanging on by a few threads, split in half from a couple of well powered kicks. Still, there was something thrilling about trying to sever the whole thing and have it fly off. Taking a deep breath, I did a low roundhouse kick and hit the meat of the bottom-half of the punching bag. The sound of tearing echoed in the quiet space of the workout area and the bag exploded from its spot. Flying across the room, it hit the wall and the grain or rice exploded against it.Biting my lip, I watched as Ethan brushed his shoulders as he walked in from the shop. I’d told him that he could come over any time today but I didn’t realize he was going to leave straight from his territory as soon as I said that.‘He’s lucky we didn’t hit him with the bag.’ Raine snorted in my mind.I was failing to keep t

Ethan waved Kevin off as I helped him to the couch. Sam was holding back her chuckle but she did grab a water bottle from the fridge. She put it in his hands and I watched as he struggled with opening the lid. Holding back so many jabs I wanted to throw, I took the bottle from him and opened it. He glared at me but I raised my eyebrows, challenging him to say something. Sighing, Ethan sank into the couch and closed his eyes. “I think I have brain damage.” “I think it’s way too late to be stating that.” Sam shook her head. Leaving Ethan on the couch, I went to the freezer and pulled out an ice pack. Holding it against my arms, I groaned. Sam was chuckling as Kevin looked from his Alpha to me. Coming over, he pulled up my arm and cursed. “Did you two need to go all out? Goddess…you could have been seriously hurt!” Ethan waved his hand. “I am seriously hurt.” Kevin scoffed. “Your brain rattling around just means that it’s still there, contrary to popular belief. Now we know. Skylar’

My phone was sitting on the coffee table and I was pacing behind the couch. Emmett said he was going to call on his new phone over twenty minutes ago. My nerves were on high alert as I looked at my phone every couple seconds, hoping I could manifest something that hadn’t happened in the last twenty minutes. Hell, I didn’t even know if he was able to get it. He could have been unable to get the phone today and all this pacing was just wearing our floorboards down.‘Sky, you need to calm down.’ Raine had been trying to calm me down this entire time but the way her tail twitched told me she was worried as well.‘I know. I know…I just…what if he got caught with it? What if something happened?’Raine sighed. ‘If something really bad happened, then Carl would call us. Don’t worry so much. He’ll call us…’She was interrupted by the ringtone of my phone. Ju

I sat outside of the pack territory in Thing. She was idling as I stared down the road. It was so weird thinking I was allowed to go on another pack’s territory. This was the first time I was driving myself and didn’t have an escort. I’d put the top up on Thing since it was getting chillier as we headed into the actual winter months. Taking a breath, I allowed Thing to roll over the territory line.Another packs territory felt weird. It was like a weight on my shoulders. Almost like the air was thicker, telling me that if I wanted to breathe better, breathe freely, I needed to get the hell out of here. I wondered if it would feel like that if I wasn’t a rogue but now I understood why rogues didn’t spend much time, if any, in packs even if they were welcome.My phone dinged and I glanced at the text message from Ethan.E: Welcome. Head on in, the guys know you are
