A couple of days before we leave, I see Thomas with a little Tula tucked up against his neck as they come into the dining hall. It’s the first time he’s been out of his room since the hunters came. Tula is shining brightly again and appears to have recovered, although I'm not sure her wing will ever
On the day we are to leave for the tournament, we pack up our four SUVs. Eli and I had pooled our money but could only afford one for the pack. The other three we rented in the city. Our destination would take us about twelve hours to arrive, without taking stops into consideration. We were going t
Cara scoffs. “Don’t be greedy. Save some for me and Angel. You know if they are arrogant Alphas it will kill them to lose to a female.” She says and we both smirk at that. “Lily, your mommy and Aunt Grace are scary. So, take note, that’s exactly how I want you to be when you grow up." Rik coos to L
I wait until we’re alone in the cabin. Grace’s emotions have been all over the place since we arrived. I know some of it is concern for seeing her father, but there was something else that I felt and didn’t understand. “Baby, what’s going on? Your emotions have been all over since we got here. It’s
After breakfast, the battles begin. These initial fights are elimination of the weaker packs, and because there are so many packs, it’s time consuming. At lunch time, everyone breaks to eat. We meet up with Cara, Rik, Liam and Angel. All our warriors are still in the battle. The first two rounds ha
Maia pushes forward, answering the question of the Alphas in the room. I hear a collective gasp and realize that Artemis has come forward as well. “All happily marked and mated.” Rik says, his voice a challenge as he stands. I realize he has passed Lily back to Cara. He’s ready for a fight. Eli’s
We let them enjoy their wins. We don’t have anyone competing tomorrow, and while I want to be there to cheer for Shadow Falls and Canyon Ridge, our score will stay the same. Eli lets everyone know how proud he is of them and after mind linking me, he decides to take this opportunity to offer the Lea
When I saw the Alpha of the Red Dawn Pack, I knew immediately from the resemblance it was Carlos’s brother. While Carlos was the oldest, without a wolf, his father gave the position to his younger brother. When his brother became Alpha, he let Carlos stay in the pack, but chose this asswipe as his B
Hello everyone, Thank you for taking this journey with me. As many of you may have read, Lily was adamant that I tell her story. And while it took longer in the beginning than I expected, I hope you got to see what a great person she is. Many of you have asked for a continuation of the series and
We watch as Angel and Cara explain the best that they can what Grace did to save the packs. She probably could have done it on her own, but I was concerned for her child. Having whatever strength she pulled from everyone was great, but she wasn’t reserving any for herself. She would have given every
I find Angel and I know that Selene was correct. She has no problem following me and I help her find her way back to Liam. Watching him on the hospital bed, begging for her to return to him, I’m thankful that I could help him and Angel reunite. I know the pain of losing my mate, and I would never wi
At first, when the vampire sank his teeth into my neck, I fought. I probably could have defeated him, even in my disadvantaged state. But then, I realized if I died, I’d be with my Lily bud. I feel my tether to everyone in my life break and I tell Lily I’m coming as everything goes dark. When I ope
“That was a really good idea, Lily bud. I’ve thought of that last night away so many times over the years. I should have known. It wasn’t like you to suddenly be so stressed out. But hindsight is always 20/20, isn’t it?” Clint begins training Angel and Alessia and it’s like he has a renewed purpose
I’ve continued to watch the life of my family. I’ve watched my daughter grow into a beautiful woman. She is not only beautiful on the outside, but she’s also beautiful on the inside. Clint has done such a great job raising her, as I knew he would. And I love that he still talks to me at night, as if
For the next few years, I get into a pattern of training Cara. We train early in the morning, then while she is at school, I work on my upper body strength by building and testing the training facilities I’m building for her. It’s a work in progress, but I feel closer to Lily while I build this for
My Lily bud is always here, watching over me and Cara. It changes things for me. It makes the days easier. I have no intention of letting my mate down, so I begin to plan what needs to happen to train my daughter and make her the strongest Guardian alive. That does give me a moment of pause. Guardi
Cyran runs with Artemis for hours. Andra had gone to follow and watch over them and I joined her, watching as Cyran nipped at Artemis’s heels and played with her. He’s really good with her. When they finally returned, Clint and Liam helped her shift back before Liam headed home. She was so excited
