“Yes, Kev. I brought Skylar with me. I need to grab the witches gate key from my office and I am going to head up north with her.”
Kev threw his hands up. “Why didn’t you warn me? If you weren’t headed down the same time that I felt it, I would have sent the guys after her!”
I chuckled. “The fact that I was coming onto the territory at the same time, Kev, you should have been able to put two and two together. I expect you to use that brain more.”
He sighed as he followed me into the office and I opened up the safe behind a stack of books. Pulling out the gate key, I shut the safe and put it back. Ignoring Kev, I walked past him but he still followed me back into the living room.
“So, what is she doing here?”
“I invited her, Kev. We need to speak with t

*** Skylar’s POV ***I woke up with a start; sitting up ready to attack. My heart was racing but there was no one in the room. It was dark even with the window open. There was a blanket that was coving me and I was laying on a bed. Raine was growling in my head but she seemed as tired as I felt.‘They tried to bind us!’ She spit out, pissed.Pinching the bridge of my nose, I tried to get the hammering of my heart under control. ‘I mean, it wouldn’t work. We aren’t a witch.’‘It hurts like hell though!’ Raine was foaming at the mouth.I sighed and tried to take better stalk of my surroundings. It was a fairly plain bedroom. The furniture was slightly mismatched but all of it was dark wood. There was a door partially open on the right side that was a bathroom, the light on was the only light in the room. On the wall to the left looked like sliding doors for

Raine and I’s surprise mixed together. Kat’s anger was enough to make us take a half step away from her. The air shifted and it suddenly became hard to breathe. Raine was starting to panic and I shook my head.‘Just put your hand on her shoulder. You’re the one who wanted to do this. So fucking forgive them.’‘I didn’t say I was going to forgive…’She didn’t say anything else as she placed a hand on the Luna’s shoulder. The air wavered but went back to normal as Kat’s hand covered ours. Taking a deep breath, she looked up at Raine and gave a small smile.“Sorry.”Raine shook her head. “No need. It’s…nice…that someone cares enough about us.”“You weren’t this mad when the Alpha King attacked her!” The smaller witch, Sophie, grumbled, plopping back down in the chair.“I’ve s

‘I’m sorry. I’m sorry…just…I’ll do what you want. I’ll let them do whatever, just let me take the pain. Let me handle it.’My forehead touched the barrier and I slid down to my knees. I didn’t know what was going on. All I knew is that I needed to get to her. No matter what. Suddenly, the barrier wavered again, another scream rippling through and I threw my fist as hard as I could into it. It shattered, the pieces blowing apart and I raced forward, out from the confinement of the darkness.Sliding forward, I took hold of Raine. Her wolf form was limp as I placed her head in my lap. Stoking her fur, I kissed the top of her head between her ears.‘I’m here. It’s okay. I’m here now.’‘Sky…’ Her voice was scratchy and she sounded exhausted.I smiled and nodded, running my fingers through her fur as my nails scratched her s

There was a crack and the whole room seemed to tip. The air was sucked in and then exploded outward making it hard to even take a breath. After a moment, the pain dissipated. I felt like a could breathe again. I couldn’t help the flood of tears that broke. Sobbing, I covered my face with my hands as cried into them. My whole body was shaking but there was a noticeable weight off my ankle. I felt something wet touch my face and I looked at the black nose of Ethan’s wolf looking at me. Reaching over, I scratched between Niru’s ears. He let out a rumble deep in his chest. I looked over at Kat who had fallen to the floor with Alpha Alan. He’d gone down on a knee to hold her but even he looked shaken. Fiona and Sophie were slumped against the chairs they had been sitting in. They were breathing heavily with their eyes closed. Sitting up on shaky hands, I looked down at my ankle. There was a huge scorch mark wrapping around my leg where the white anklet used to be. The object in question w

My lips were smashed together like a fish and I pulled down her arms so I could actually talk. “I’m fine, Sam. They were able to help.”“I heard they shot you with some magic. You’re okay? Not going to turn into a frog? Or randomly start speaking German?”I raised my eyebrow. “Is that a thing?”“I mean…I would assume so…”Rolling my eyes, I slapped her arm. “Stop making up shit. It’s fine. I’m okay. I just look like the enemy to them. It happens.”Her eyes narrowed and then she picked up my hands, turning them over. “No damage? Your magic touch to those drumsticks not effected?”“None at all. Maybe even a little better. We shall see.”She nodded and then turned back to the other wolf. “Oh shit! Right! You haven’t met Kev.”He held out his hand and I shook it softly.“H-hi. I&rs
Shift Chapter 100
I opened the door to my room at around 4 p.m. We got back home at around six in the morning and I think I finally fell asleep around seven. Waking up after sleeping that long, I felt a lot better. Now, I kept tapping my foot on the floor, not feeling the anklet shift. It was a weird sensation after so many years of having it on. Looking down the hall, I snuck a peak into the guest bedroom and saw Kat sprawled out on the bed. She was snoring softly under one of the lighter blankets I had in the closet.Leaving her to sleep, I walked into the kitchen and opened up the fridge. I stared into it, and then shut it. Opening up a couple of the cabinet’s, I stared into them as well. Eventually, I sighed and shut them. Nothing sounded good right now. Re-opening the fridge, I took out a beer and opened it.‘You should be careful. Kat could wake up at any moment.’ Raine sounded like she wanted me to get caught.‘It’s fine. I’

Kat came into the kitchen yawning as I was moving around the kitchen, still talking to Carl. We basically went through the bullet points of what had been going on with me. I was selecting things to leave out. Explaining about how there was about a 90 percent chance that I had two mates and one of them was an Alpha of the pack that was only a couple hours away was not one of them.I did tell him about meeting Kat and how we were commuting back and forth, hanging out when we could. Also, that she was actually really nice and I didn’t regret reaching out. She sat down and thanked me quietly as I placed a coffee in front of her.“You’re telling me, you actually managed to get that thing off?”“Yeah. I wish I could help Em with his but it’s not for the faint of heart. It was a bad time and that’s me saying it. I don’t think I would want Em to go through that. Hopefully, Caleb will take over soon.”Carl humm

My arm was slung over Kat’s shoulders as she helped me down the stairs. I was limping, my right leg unable to take any weight. She was lucky I wasn’t the size of Ethan. This never would have worked. We reached the bottom floor and I snickered.“I’m not sure I would be laughing right now.” Kat eyed me worriedly.I shook my head. “I was just thinking that Ethan might have to go through another shift. He’s really getting the short end of the stick in this whole mate bond thing.”She snorted and shook her head. “Let’s not go there right now. We need to get you out.”Opening the front door of the shop, we had a couple different options. We could cross the main road and go into the National Forest. The issue with that was there were camping spots littered all over the place and if I ended up losing myself, I would absolutely scare the shit out of some campers.Behind the shop was more tree

You know who you are and I just want to say even when I felt down, I knew I had to keep going because I honestly didn't want to disappoint. As a lot of you know, I struggle with being sick a lot. So having my writing means so much to mean and having you guys be so patient during that time means the world to me. Especially when it feels like there is so much negativity on the internet.
Shift Epilogue 5
My lips crashed onto Sky’s and it was an entirely different feeling with the electricity of the mate bond. Niru was growling and howling incoherently in my head but at the same time, it all made sense. I wanted her, needed her. Needed everything that she would give me. The thing that surprised me the most was that I wanted to share her as well. Pulling away, I looked at Justin who was just about foaming at the mouth.“She tastes like orange citrus as well. Would you like to taste her lips?”Justin’s irises blew out and a shiver ran through his spine. He reached for her but it was a lot more gentle than I expected. He brushed her cheek and sucked a hair behind her ear before pressing his lips to hers. She molded up against his body and I stepped up behind her, brushing the hair out of her face.“Can you taste it? Taste the orange with the salt from the sea?”Justin hummed as he pulled back slowly taking her lip between his teeth for a moment before letting it go. I smirked, feeling how

Justin chuckled. “You mean Fast Orange? Yeah, I smell it. Of course that’s what she would smell like. She uses that shit almost every day.”I smiled and I realized he was beaming too. This time we did follow our noses. She had been here but she wasn’t here anymore. We followed it back up the stairs as she wove through the art tents and through the throng of people that had amassed. I pushed through first, following just my instinct, Niru almost fully taking over.Justin was right behind me, never once straying or getting stuck behind someone else. I followed the orange scent and it started getting stronger. Like I had just stuck my nose in the bucket of the stuff she kept in the shop bathroom. The beach was relatively quiet since it was getting cooler as the sun was going down.Near the edge of the waves, just where it was lapping up onto the sand, Sky stood alone. Her large-brimmed woven sunhat was pushed back on her head and sunglasses were set around the top of it. She was wearing a

There was a read receipt but she wasn’t replying. Not that I blamed her. Sky probably saw right through my charade. Justin looked over my shoulder at my phone. “Yeah, because that’s not over the top.” I growled at him but continued to stare at the screen. Finally, I held my breath when the three little dots appeared. Justin was the opposite, breathing heavy as he started at my phone as well. S: Well, it’s nice to be remembered today. Both Justin and I winced. Oh yeah, she was mad. ‘Who can blame her? I sure can’t.’ Niru added his two cents. Shaking my head, I typed up another message. Mate #1: I’m sorry, baby. Really. Come on, let’s celebrate together, yeah? We can go to your favorite place in the city, have a nice dinner or whatever you want. Justin snorted. “Way to lay it on thick.” “What else do you want me to do? We fucked up. She knows it. We know it. I’m not about to lose the chance to be with her on her birthday because of it. Are you?” That shut him up as we both

*** Ethan’s POV *** My alarm went off and all I wanted to do was throw my phone at the wall. I’d gone to bed at three in the morning and I knew this alarm was for eight. My eyelids didn’t want to open and I turned over in bed, burying my face in my pillow. This had been the first time in three days I’d gotten to bed. It was a chore dragging myself up the stairs but I’d made it.Normally, I loved doing the work behind the scenes. The problem was is that the inspector with an entire tree trunk shoved up his ass decided that he was going to nitpick laws that weren’t even updated in this century. I would know because I fucking checked. Mr. Marrow had been out three times and each time we passed the first set of requirements but would find even more to throw our way.‘You need to be extra safe when it comes to our youth. You know, they are our future and the path to a better tomorrow.’ Niru copied his grating voice almost perfectly, before growling and snapping his jaw. ‘If I could just s

*** Four Months Later *** My eyes peeled open and I reached out for my phone. The screen flashed four in the morning and I groaned. My hand fall back against the sheets and I laid there for another moment. However, it was Raine who started to bounce up and down in my head.‘Raine, come on.’‘But Sky, aren’t we doing to do the thing?’Her exuberance and happiness made a smile creep onto my face.‘Come on, Sky. If we go early, we can be there early!’‘Alright, alright! Fucking hell.’Throwing the blankets off of me, I got up and padded into the bathroom. Going pee and taking a quick shower, I woke up enough to feel somewhat alive. Coffee would get me the rest of the way there. The kitchen was quiet when I walked in and I still continued to thank the Goddess for it. It had been a month since everyone moved the hell out of my place. There was still work needing to be done in the apartments but I left that to the contractors and the guys themselves.For now, I would enjoy the simple peace
Shift Chapter 174
I sat on the stairs of the porch, looking out over the back yard of the pack house. Everything was so quiet here. It was nice to take a break from the chaos that was now my home. At least for a few minutes. The wind blew and I tucked a stray hair behind my ear. Looking down at my phone, I stared at the messages that were there. E: Hey Sky, I feeling a little better today. Sam made some kind of soup. It was completely inedible. She had to order pizza. It reminded me of when you tried to cook that pasta dish and you somehow managed to burn the pasta. E: I went shopping online today. Got some more clothes. Bernard came by and cut my hair for me. That was nice. It was getting in my eyes. They won’t talk about you though. It’s like you don’t exist anymore and I hate it. E: Today was a bad day. I don’t know why. I just woke up and I threw up until there was nothing left in me. Sam tried to help but I felt disgusting. I’m reminded of what I did. What I had done. It’s like it comes back
Shift Chapter 173
We headed down the road in Ethan’s truck. I was squished between Ethan and Justin in the center seat of the bench. Still, it felt nice as I rested my head on Justin’s shoulder and my fingers laced with Ethan’s. I’d need them to handle this trip.“I gave one of the new homes to Sam. Her and Emmett have been staying together.”“So she didn’t reject him?”Ethan squeezed my hand. “She didn’t. She hasn’t marked him but when she heard what you did, I think she thought it only right for her to give him a chance as well.”My heart lightened just a little, knowing that something good may actually come from all this pain. Ethan turned down the road that was brand new and I could see the new homes that were being built. There were three blocks of them that were already finished and he pulled into the driveway of one that was a block down. I scooted out of the middle and Justin helped me down from the truck.“Whatever you do, pretend like I’m not here.”Both Ethan and Justin gave me confused look
Shift Chapter 172
I woke up screaming and my eyes flung open. Everything was hazy and I didn’t know where I was. All I could remember was the all consuming feeling of the darkness. How sticky my hands were from Emmett’s blood. The last sound that came from Marrok as I killed him. My heart sped up as I started to hyperventilate, as my stomach started to roll.“Hey! Sky! It’s okay. You’re okay. You’re safe.”A hand brushed my cheek but I flinched away from in.“Shit. Hold on. I’m pulling over.”I felt bile start to come up but I just coughed, forcing myself to not throw up. I hadn’t realized we were moving until the motion stopped completely. It helped a bit for my stomach but I still felt like I couldn’t breathe. Hands slipped under my arms and pulled me up from my laying down position. My head fell heavily against Ethan’s shoulder and arms held me tight.“You’re okay. I’ve got you. I’m right here.”That broke the damn. I started to cry as I grabbed onto the front of his shirt, balling it up between my
