~Luke’s Point of View~

Once in the hall I pull my schedule out of my pocket, and sigh with relief when I see it's time for lunch. I’m starved, but then again, I always am. The council was able to make a deal with the school to accommodate me, and since I require something that isn’t exactly on the menu I have to be very careful.

At the idea of quenching the ever present burn in my throat, my feet move a bit faster. But again, at a human pace. I make my way to the cafeteria, finding the space simply by following the smell. The foods of today are so vastly different and for the most part… garbage. I’ve been very spoiled living in the Shadows headquarters, getting meals catered to my needs. That isn’t going to be my daily reality now though the Alpha of my new pack is making an effort.

I quickly see the side door that Chance told me would be there, and it nearly kills me not to just dash to it. Every second wasted is time I don’t get what I need. What I crave. Most importantly, it's time

Uh oh! Is Luke going to follow her?

    ~Harlow’s Point of View~~Somewhere in a haze~“Follow the light Harlow, it’s okay,” I hear, from a soft and soothing voice.“Hmm, my head hurts,” I whine, feeling around in the dark for something, anything. I carefully put one foot in front of the other, and move toward a weird blue glow.“Hello,” I say, timidly. “Just a bit more Harlow,” the voice says again. I make a face at that, and try to figure out who it is, but come up with nothing. I can’t even really tell if it's a male or a female, it's almost just… childlike.I hold my hand out toward the glow and it's warm, inviting like a hot bath. I search my brain for my wolf but when I don’t sense her, I step back. It’s a trick. I don’t know how or why but this isn’t normal. What was I doing before this? Am… I dead?“You’re not dead Harlow, just a pain in the ass,” the voice says, with a small giggle. It’s a woman, for sure! I narrow my eyes at whoever this female is and put my hands on my hips. She can hear my thoughts! My hands

    ~Harlow’s Point of View~~The Next Evening~“Should he really be doing that,” I question, as I watch my father chasing around Hudson’s pups like he wasn’t just at death’s door yesterday. Their laughter warms me even though it's freezing out here. I’ve got on a heavy jacket that could keep three people warm but I still feel the cold on my face. I raise my gloved hands to my cheeks.We’re at the pack that’s been housing my father since he got his freedom, and I have to admit… it’s cute. My heart thumps just thinking about Dark Thunder. I certainly don’t miss school but the pack had its charms. I make a mental note to call and speak to Ginny soon, I can’t let her think I’ve already forgotten her.Tate wraps his arms around me from behind, and I lean into him. He nibbles my ear and I press my lips together. Goddess it doesn’t take much, I’m an absolute fool for my mates!“It’s a miracle. Not only his transformation but that he isn’t pissed about what we did,” he whispers, then moves to nu

    ~Two Weeks Later~~Hudson’s Point of View~*Calm down, you’re stressing me out,* Harlan whines, as we pace.I ball and un-ball my fists, trying not to go crazy. I called my family, but I don’t think they understood the severity here. I have to see him, I have to tell him--“Dad,” I say, when a nurse finally opens the door. The word should be common enough, but on my tongue it's still so foreign. I haven’t been the best to him since we found each other, but in all fairness it's been a heavy time. My entire world is spinning, sometimes out of control.“He’s sedated,” the nurse whispers. I run my hand through my hair and grind my teeth. I haven’t anywhere near enough time. My kids… they need their grandfather. He already loves them so much and I haven’t done enough to give them time.“What the hell happened,” I whisper, falling into the chair next to him and putting my hand on his arm. He looks so damn weak. He doesn’t look like himself at all. Though he hasn’t. The nurse sighs and fidd

  • Wide Awake Chaos: Shadow Warrior Series   127 - Round Them Up

    ~Rowan’s Point of View~“She drank it. You’ll have to at least tie me up and make it look real.” I read, looking at a text message that makes me smile. I quickly reply, “Thanks hun, keep your door open and leave this burner cell out where I can take it.” I pass out little cards I made, a map of the property and everyone studies them for a few minutes.“Who’s place is this exactly,” Tate asks, in a whisper. Luc’s warm hand takes mine, and threads our fingers together. “The last person I’m going to get on my revenge list. My father is gone, The Meadows is no more. But this bitch here…” I trail off, turning back toward the opulent mansion. It sits like a beacon in the dark, all lit up to show off. It’s a cold night, and one Bridget Flanagan is home alone. Well, her housekeeper is home but currently fucking my brother Colin a few nights a week. She’s been extremely helpful in my little quest.Especially since old man Flanagan stiffed her of her usual Christmas bonus. I was more than happ

  • Wide Awake Chaos: Shadow Warrior Series   126 - Good Chaos

    ~Luc’s Point of View~Pretty much any supernatural creature can smell a vampire anywhere in their immediate vicinity, and be on high alert in the blink of an eye. So when I’d pop into view, out in the sun shine without a care in the world, it usually fucked with their head. They knew what their instincts were telling them, what their body insisted was true. But rationally, they couldn’t understand how it was possible. It was something I lived for. But now?*Blending in! It's all right,* Dante says, as I roll my head around on my neck. Different Shadows continue to pass by in the halls, not giving me a second look. The ones outside, same thing. I’m just a wolf shifter, nobody special. Dime a dozen as they say. It’s odd, but I don’t need to impress anyone certainly. Not with three mates and two that drive me absolutely wild.Tate and I have even bonded a lot more since I gave up the whole blood sucker life. Dante is thrilled to have a male companion, someone that will always have our ba

    ~Harlow’s Point of View~~One Week Later~Standing before the bed, I face plant into it, utterly spent. Just as I feel myself start to drift off, my body is being moved.Never a moment’s peace! I mean, most of the time I like that, but not tonight!“Baby, let me get you in bed,” I hear, though it sounds like I’m down a well. Hope grumbles, and helps to fight back a sneeze.It isn’t common for shifters to get sick, but we certainly can. When I was in foster care, the pups around me were always sick. It seemed never ending.AH CHOO AHHH CHOOO“Uhhh,” I grumble, as my ass gets lifted and I roll into the bed. “Harlow, you need to rest,” I hear. “My boobs don’t care,” I whine, realizing I forgot to put my top back on after I nursed Reha.A hand on my breast only confirms that, and I swat it away. Hardly in the mood!“Damn, she’s burning up,” Luc says, his accent getting more prominent now that he doesn’t have to care about hiding it. I think for the last couple months he’s just done it o
