I walk in the door late, having missed dinner with my boy again. I see Sandra and Bhakti on the floor with Nathan, building some monstrous stack of blocks with cars and Little People stacked on and around it. Nathan’s making roaring noises and giggling. The sight stops my heart. He’s been so happy here. The shadow of Julian and that pack has left, fallen away from his little psyche, and left this happy little boy in its wake.

It’s amazing to see his healing. Amazing to see what his life should have been all along. Carefree, creative, full of hope and happiness. And love. So much love. He's never met a stranger. Every other pup fights to sit beside him in school or be on his team during recess. He is loved by everyone.

I wish that I could be more like him.

Yeah, I’m better. I’m not constantly on high alert, waiting to see what I would do to piss someone off, to see how they’d react. Using my son to keep me in line. Using my body to beat out their frustrations or gain

Hey friends! Hope that the week has treated you well. Like I said before, CCS got some drama going on. What do you think about these new characters? Are they justified in what they've done? Or are they still the monsters that Selene initially led us to believe they were? Looking for 10 comments for two bonus chapters between now and Monday. See you soon!

  • Trinity of Power   Chapter 16 - Casen

    Rin has finally fallen asleep. She had clung to me, afraid of my reaction to her emotions from the clearing. She wasn’t convinced that Severn and I could handle her feelings. For some crazy reason, she had convinced herself that we would reject her, leaving her all alone in the world. Don’t get me wrong, I understand her fear of abandonment, especially with everything that had happened with our pack and all of the other packs. But what had Severn or I ever done to convince her that we would leave her? I don’t understand. I want to, but I just don’t. Regardless, I can’t let her be alone. That’s when she goes down these rabbit holes and freaks out. When she spends time alone in the woods with that damn skeet shooter and just thinks about everything that we’ve lost, that’s when she comes up with ideas for revenge and plots for kidnapping. I’ll support her as best I can through all of this until we can get in with the other trios. According to Brandon, they’ve got counselors an

    I wake to the smell of rotten meat surrounding me and a heavy weight in my lap. The feeling of cold stone on my back and beneath me reminds me that I’m in the gym cave with Sev, who is probably what is in my lap. I crack my eyes open slightly, just enough to take in the room. No one is in here yet, but they are just outside of the door. I can hear them moving in the leaves, not even attempting to be quiet. I guess they think that because there are six of them, they can stand against us. Yeah, ok. I put my hand over Sev’s mouth so that he doesn’t speak and shake him awake. Immediately, he’s alert and beginning to claw at my hand. I pull his head to mine quickly, keeping my eyes on the door. I can see one of them in wolf form starting to walk towards the door. “Rogues!” My whisper is urgent, my eyes tracking their movement. It’s then that we hear Corinda’s scream from the other cave. Without thinking, Sev leaps up, calling her name. “Fuck!” I mutter under my breath. He j

    I wake up with the urgent need to pee. I sigh loudly before rolling from side to side to try to get momentum. I finally roll to my side and push myself up. The change in gravity does not help the peeing situation AT ALL. This little girl is doing a tap dance on my bladder. “Alright, kid. I get it. Calm your ass down. I’m getting up as fast as I can,” I grumble. I lean forward and put my weight on the bedside table and half fall forward, half stand. I love this kid, I truly, truly do. But I can’t wait to have my body to myself again. I finally stand and waddle my considerably bigger ass to the bathroom. After finally relieving myself, I waddle back out of the bathroom, looking for my shirt that I threw off when Lily and I came in here for a nap. From my understanding, with two pups, these will be at a premium soon and Lily and I decided that we would take advantage of the little time that we have left. Our due date is eight weeks from now, just behind Sandra and Bhakti.

  • Trinity of Power   Chapter 19 - Corinda

    When Case floated Sev up to him, I almost expected to feel a pang of jealousy surge through my chest that he hadn’t done the same for me. But, I didn’t. Instead, I just feel that “awww” moment that you get when you watch sappy movies and the main characters finally get together. Happy for them, somewhat wishing that you had it yourself, but not really wanting to be a part of their moment. I don’t really dwell on the feeling long. Sev wasn’t completely wrong when he accused me of not being in love with my mates any longer. I am…but more as long time friends love each other. I guess you could call us friends with benefits? I hadn’t really felt love for them in…years? Even the fated sparks have died down for me. I don’t really feel them when I touch my mates anymore. I had hoped that once my revenge was exacted that I would start to fall back in love with them. It hasn’t happened though. I still feel too angry. At least, now, I have a new enemy to vent my anger on. I turn

    It all seems to happen in slow motion, but there’s nothing I can do about it. Rin spins towards Brandon, her fist already pulled back before she releases a punch that would have definitely dislocated and possibly broken a human’s jaw. But Brandon catches her hand in mid-throw. Suddenly, she’s on the ground beneath him, her hands grasped in his, his knee in her stomach, and his face menacingly close to hers. “I wouldn’t do that, Corinda. You have to know how my gift works. I’m not sure why I didn’t see Sev’s tree coming, other than it isn’t really living, but I’ll see anything you try to do. Don’t do that again.” His voice is a growl, threatening her. I feel Case tense beside me, but I can feel his conflicting feelings through the link. She kind of asked for this, but that’s our mate that’s being threatened. The most unexpected thing happens when her arousal scents the air. It temporarily leaves both Case and I immobile in utter shock. Brandon moves off of her almost fas

    Zak and I had just made our way into the Alpha Council when we feel Brandon’s distress and pain. It’s like something is squeezing our throats, making it hard to breathe. Almost like an asthma attack, nothing at all like Brandon is feeling, but still scary as all hell. Wheezing, Zak and I fall to the ground, clutching our necks. Arya and Dev run to our sides, our other friends close on their heels. “What’s wrong? What’s happening?” Dev cries, holding us up so that we can get deeper breaths of air. Through short, panting breaths, I say, “It’s Brandon. He’s dying.” “No!” Dev screams. He holds me while Arya holds Zak and their demi-god powers lessen the pain. It makes it so we can think. And tap into Brandon’s side of the link to see what’s going on. What we find is scary as fuck! Casen is holding Brandon down with his wind power while sucking the air from his lungs. The process is slow and excruciating. If feels like he is dry drowning, searching for air when there is no

  • Trinity of Power   Chapter 22 - Casen

    I know that I took my anger out on the wrong person. It’s just so much easier to take it out on Brandon than it would be to face Rin in that moment. But I have to face her now. We’ve got to get out of here and to the safehouse. And we have to deal with the shit that just went down. FUCK! I can’t believe that she got off on Brandon holding her down. She hasn’t gotten horny like that since…I can’t remember the last time we’ve made her horny with just a word or a touch. We have sex so rarely and when we do, it takes her so long to get wet. We have to use lube and do foreplay for what seems like hours for her to get wet enough to take us. She rarely, if ever, seems interested. But a wolf can only go so long without being with their mate after they are marked and mated. It’s helpful that Sev and I can be together and that pushes the need off some, but we need each other. At least Sev and I need her. I catch her scent quickly and follow her through the woods. Though she is a

    I didn’t leave. I wanted to. Really, really badly. I wanted to run home, to be with my mates and my pups. But a couple of things kept me there. One – I have no idea where the fuck I am. I mean, as a wolf, I’d be able to get my bearings rather quickly, but will it be fast enough to get me away from Casen and Corinda? I have the feeling that Corinda would burn the forest down to make sure that she found me to use me against my mates. Two – Though that was some fucked up shit that just went down, I want to make sure that Sev is ok. I couldn’t give a shit about what Corinda thinks. And Casen? I’m not sure how I feel about him. I mean, dude had tried to kill me. I understand why, though. If anything like that happened with Charlie, I would have done the exact same thing. He ain’t all that bad. I gotta make sure they’re ok. Three – Selene had said that I needed to be here for a week. Why? I don’t know. But if the Goddess said I had to be here, here is where I had to be.

  • Trinity of Power   Epilogue - The Red One

    The tunnels twisted and turned in an endless labyrinth beneath the Hoia Baciu Forest. The scent of damp earth mixed with the faint metallic tang of blood and decay. The flickering torchlight cast eerie shadows along the stone walls as I strode through the corridor, my Thane, Sybil, walking briskly beside me.“How is she doing?” I asked without breaking my stride.“She is much more stubborn, much more resilient than we anticipated,” Sybil admitted. “But we believe we may have turned the corner, High Priestess.”“Oh?” I arched a brow, intrigued. Morgana’s torture had been… sluggish. Less satisfying than I had hoped.Torture, after all, is not simply about the body—it is about breaking the mind. True suffering comes when a victim loses their very sense of self, when they beg for death, only to have it denied over and over. And yet, Morgana had proven difficult to crack.Nine months. Nine months of relentless torment. We had shattered her bones and healed them daily, forced her to endure t

    The ride from Texas to our packhouse should normally take 21 hours, but we’ve made it a one-week trip, sending our beta, Landry, ahead of us in our plane. He will help our people move in and settle while Brandon, our parents, and all of our pups take a little side trip for some downtime.Carl, Richard, and Lauren elected to move back to Artemis lands with us. It’s where they lived, where Carl and Richard grew up, and where they raised their older children. Now that they had a new set of pups, they wanted to come back. My mom and Charlie’s parents were also moving back with us. It was their way to see their grandpups grow but also to honor the lives of my father and Charlie.Carl, Richard, and Lauren were a little upset that Dev, Arya, Jakey, and the twins were remaining in Texas and that they wouldn’t be able to see them as much, but we’ve already got a couple of trips scheduled back and forth so that all the cousins could get together and we could see our best friends.Our side trip t

    The past few months have been some of the most emotionally difficult of my life. Not only am I nearing the end of my pregnancy with our little boy, but we are also leaving Texas— all of us. Except for the old Diana pack and Arya and Dev’s pack, the rest of us will be gone by tomorrow.The last three months have been consumed with finalizing pack laws, succession rules, and building the new packhouses for each territory. We've been moving everything from our old homes, figuring out pack logistics, and ensuring every wolf is accounted for. It’s been exhausting, but necessary.We also had to choose our new betas, gammas, and deltas. In a twist of fate, Donavon asked to be our beta so that Kesha could stay close to Slade and Chloe. Rin made the same request to serve under Case, Chloe, and Sev, so their families could stay together. That means Mike and Seth will also be moving up north. But the tech squad doesn’t need to be in the same room to work together, so at least that transition will

    "Reports have been consistent from all of our sources. Other than one of the fae discovering what was left of Locasta’s body in the bayou, there hasn’t been a single sighting of any Riding Hoods on American soil,” Hawk says.We’re in one of our combined council meetings, with all the alphas from every pack in the U.S., as well as the heads and representatives of the Maiden, Mother, and Crone covens for Hecate. There’s also a representative from the Seelie Fairy Court and an ambassador from the Unseelie Fairy Court. The sooner we can get all of us on the same side, the better we’ll be protected from groups like the Riding Hoods. We’re hoping to expand this into a global alliance—a kind of supernatural U.N.For now, the fae are willing to let the U.S. be the test subject. Convincing the other shifter groups, however, has been difficult. Many remain elusive or outright resistant to the idea. Zak’s presence would have helped—his Goddess gifts have a way of swaying even the most stubborn mi

    After the ceremony, Gregory and I help Jamal back to our cabin. Every time I see him in that damn wheelchair, I get livid all over again. Those witches. I can’t believe Locasta and Morgana got the drop on him.He freely admits he was distracted—he had taken a call from Seth and Mike about incoming witches. It turned out to be nothing, just the Crone coven sweeping through like they promised. Apparently, no one had thought to inform our tech team of that part of the plan. And no one but Jamal had their phone turned on.Morgana had woken up just before the call. While Jamal was preoccupied, she directed Locasta to retrieve a knife from her boot—silver and coated in wolfsbane. They cut themselves free, then stabbed Jamal in the back of the neck, severing part of his spinal cord. He collapsed immediately. The wolfsbane knocked him out, and the silver cauterized the damage. For a time, he couldn’t see, couldn’t hear, couldn’t even breathe on his own.Arya and Dev managed to purge the wolfsb

    Zak and I have been in a fog since Charlie’s death yesterday. The one and only thing that has brought us any solace is our pups. It seems like, overnight, they began looking more and more like their mother. Though both of them have always had Charlie’s gray, raincloud eyes, their faces and bodies seem to have gotten leaner, their chins more pointed, their cheeks hollowing slightly to reveal high, sculpted cheekbones. Maybe it’s just wishful thinking, but others in the pack have noticed it, too.Our families are around us. Friends come in and out of our cabin. All of our mothers—Lauren, Danielle, and Clara—busy themselves with the pups, cooking, keeping things moving as if that will help. The house bustles with people, but I barely register them.The only things that ground me are Zak’s hand in mine, the weight of Christy’s sloppy kisses on my cheek, the warmth of Jerry’s small body as he curls into my chest.I know I eat. I shower. I dress. I might even respond to people. But it’s all

  • Trinity of Power   Chapter 214 - Gael

    So many emotions. Thank the Goddess on High that I’ve been training on how to empty myself of other people’s feelings. If not, I’d be drowning in them, rocking in a corner with my thumb in my mouth. Despair. Pain. Rage. Dread. Determination. They flood over me like a tidal wave, crashing against my mental defenses. But using the techniques Meredith taught me, I let them wash over me and drain away, like waves receding from the shore.I have to keep my head on straight. My job is twofold. First, I need to help my friends process their grief without letting it consume them. Zak and Brandon’s pain is like a living thing, a force that threatens to unravel everything if I don’t keep it contained. I push their suffering to the back of their minds, tempering their anger to something useful. They don’t want this—but they need it.Then there’s Dev. His grief is just as raw, just as deep, but there’s a difference. Beneath his devastation, there’s acceptance. A flicker of hope. He knows that he’l

    Zak and Brandon push through the door, Brandon almost immediately shoving Zak to the floor as a ball of lightning rushes through the air toward them. It slams into the door just above their heads before Gregory vaults over them, a shield of the same crackling energy covering us as we begin to move through the doorway.Gregory’s ability to mimic Morgana’s powers surprises her, giving Jamal the time to step into the room after his mate. His power fills the space, nullifying all the goddess gifts of those within a 100-foot radius (we checked). That includes all the witches’ powers. The only ones that won’t be affected by Jamal’s power are Arya and me. Our gifts aren’t Goddess-given but Goddess-like. He can’t take away what is part of the Goddess.The look on Morgana’s face as she drops like a fucking stone is almost enough to make me smile. Her scream echoes through the stairwell, the resounding thud as she lands and the breath whooshes out of her is immensely satisfying. Unfortunately, o

    I don’t know what gave me the idea of the salt trail. Honestly, I haven’t been able to think of much since I’ve been here. The thought of us being so close to freedom seems unreal. I never thought that I would escape the Riding Hoods alive. It makes the frustration that Charlie is feeling about us going around in circles barely register to me. I’m still finding it hard to believe that we’re going to get out of here.But the salt sparks a memory of my favorite childhood fairytale. My mother hated it, the way that the witch was portrayed, but I loved the thought of children being able to outsmart an adult like that. I read every version I could find and acted it out with my toys all the time. I even made Mom, Dad, and Bella call me Gretel for about a year.So, I really shouldn’t be surprised that my old favorite story came to me in a time of need. The whole scenario was made better by the fact that Charlie called me Gretel. I feel like I’m getting some of me back. Like I’m starting to wa
