Wolfsbane - Finding The Wolf Within Chapter 24 - Northern Journey, I think
The wrong direction indeed … When Alexa woke from the slumber, she didn’t know she had fallen into, she was startled to see the sun had risen and that it had already begun to snow. This meant that the temperature would already begin to drop and that she had to get out of this forest if she was going to survive. The redhead was relieved to see the fire she had built late in the night had lasted the rest of the night while she had slumbered. But she was distressed to see that it had begun to die. She shivered as the last of the embers died out, leaving her without her only heat source. She found that she had been relying on those small flames she had mustered a little more than she thought. Of course, she had not expected it to start snowing sometime during the night. Her exposed arm began to burn as it was exposed to the cold, and she shivered. Alexa was concerned that if she didn’t start moving again soon, she would slowly freeze to death. The eighteen-year-old knew her only chance

After watching her limp away from her makeshift campsite Aiden had returned home and spent most of the day with the pack, anxiously awaiting the return of his father as he was away on a business trip. He was so lost in thought, thinking about the beautiful female that he had so desperately wanted to return to that eventually even his best friend started to notice the absent-mindedness. He tried to avoid him as much as he possibly could, until Aiden couldn’t take it anymore and left, running back to his female. Yes, he knew this would possibly cause a major stir-up back at the pack house, but honestly, he couldn’t care. Aiden was slowly coming to terms with the fact his wolf had claimed the injured female as his own, this made him wonder what he knew that Aiden didn’t. Of course, this wasn’t the first time his wolf understood the importance of something before Aiden himself did. Aiden ran as fast as he could to the place where the seemingly twenty-year-old had left her, but when he

The next sunrise had Aiden felt extremely at peace as he slowly drifted back into the waking world. The young adult felt his muzzle begin nuzzling the small warmth he had wrapped his body around. He buried his long snout deeper into wild lilies and felt his soul sigh in contentment. It took the werewolf a few moments for him to remember where he was and what, or rather whom, it was that he was nuzzling. Suddenly as if he had been doused with ice-cold water the wolf’s head shot up away from the body beneath him, amber eyes snapping open with panic. Aiden quickly found himself filled with relief that the woman he had wrapped himself around was still sound asleep. With a quick scan of the area where she had set up her camp, he began searching for any signs of danger or threat that may be lurking in the trees just beyond the wolf’s excellent sight. He found none. The golden-eyed wolf knew that if he were to successfully detangle himself without her becoming aware of his presence then h

It had taken the family the entire first night and most of the next day to reach the base of Widow’s Peak their vehicles could only go so far before they had to hike on foot. Having left the youngest Winters family member in the care of a friend the three others set off in their search for the missing twin. It warmed Jean’s heart to witness almost half the town show up to aid them in their search. What they found at the base of that cliff left them with mixed feelings of relief and despair. Day by day the days started melding together and with each passing day, the Winters matriarch fought with the sheriff who insisted on listing the help of the local pack. She persisted still that she would find her daughter on her own. Jayden tried to ignore the absolute sense of disappointment when the first day of searching resulted in absolutely nothing. She tried her best to hide her frustration at her missing best friend when they reached the base of the cliff only to find she wasn’t there. Of

Disappointment was beginning to feel all too familiar to Alexa, that and frustration as Alexa couldn’t help but feel disappointed when she once again woke up to the silver snow-covered trees. She was beginning to get sick of the frost covered trees, whose bare branches reached up like bony fingers searching for a sliver of sunlight. Begging for the warmth she too wished she could reach. An urge that she could match herself as she felt her frostbitten fingers begin to burn when she reached out toward the fire. A fire that was miraculously still burning even after a full night’s worth of snow. The days had all blended together and she had lost count of them, her thoughts were hard to keep straight she could have been here a week, a few days or even a month and she would have no way of knowing her sense of time lost to the injury her head had suffered. The redheaded twin couldn’t understand how she survived so long in this icy weather, feeling her body burn with a fever she didn’t kno

Once Aiden arrived back at the pack house he shifted back into his human form. For fourteen days he had been sneaking in and out of the pack house hopefully unnoticed. From dusk till dawn, he would be gone watching over the injured woman in their forest, stupidly awaiting the return of his father so that he could ask for permission to help her. Quickly standing on his human feet he made his way into the beautiful mansion. Walking past many of his pack mates as they made their way through the morning. No one batted an eyelash at the man’s nakedness but being what they were it wasn’t an uncommon site. Of course, it helped that this particular mansion was just for the unmated males of the pack, leaving the women in a different house. Just as the wolf thought he was going to get back to his room without anyone being the wiser he was stopped by his best friend. Griffon O’Connell stood there outside his room, arms crossed, and an accusing look on his sun-kissed face, magenta eyes stared ba

Alexa’s days continued one after other in a blur of ice and snow until she was certain she was completely and utterly lost, with no sense of direction or time left for the redhead. Alexa had begun to realize she was traveling around in circles when one evening she stumbled across one of her old campsites. The frustration had almost crushed her, she had yelled out and screamed in her anger. How was this fair to her? What has she done in this life that made her deserved this? In outrage, she slammed her right hand into the trunk of a nearby tree and regretted it almost immediately. With a sharp hiss, she shook out her right hand and continued forward never looking back at the tree. Her determination to get back to her family was the only thing in the forsaken forest that kept her going. She had even managed to crack a joke about how Isaac had been right all this time and her sense of direction was horrendous. Afterward, she had been overcome with sorrow as she missed her family dearly.

That sound brought dread into Alexa’s heart and she merely closed her eyes as her stomach twisted. There was a thundering crash that originated from somewhere just outside of Alexa’s line of sight. It was a resonated all around her as if it bounced off the nearby trees and pulled at a memory buried deep within the crevices of her brain and made her wince as if her head had been to split into two. The redhead tore herself out of her aimless musings and snapped to attention spinning around in fright. Fear-filled eyes searched the wooded area she had reluctantly become accustomed to. Enlarged electric eyes scanned the darkness seeking out for the source of the sound which frightened her. If Alexa were to look back on her decision, she could honestly say she wished she hadn’t. Adrenaline had made itself at home in her veins intermittently during her long trek and in that moment was no different. The organ in her chest threatened to give out on her as accelerated almost painfully in res

Wolfsbane - Finding The Wolf Within Epilogue
** Warning: Graphic mentions of violence and torture, mentions of rape, and graphic sexual content **Far away from the damaged Burrough across many, many acres of land, over hills and mountains, across rivers and streams, nestled in an open valley welcomed by a glistening silver lake and flanked by white-toothed mountains stood a tall ivory castle, lit up by the silver beams of the moon.The surrounding land was peaceful and the night quiet for all weary travelers wandering through the nearby forests, but it was anything but peaceful within the ivory walls, for what was once a beautiful shrine to the moon goddess was now possessed by a much darker, more sinister entity.For on a marble throne adorned with the skulls of his enemies sat the hulking figure of something more beast than man. His heavily scarred features could strike fear in all who gazed upon him as he relaxed back in his stolen seat, the once polished marble now permanently stained crimson from all the bloodshed during h
Wolfsbane - Finding The Wolf Within Chapter 95 - Alpha Awakened
“NO!” Jean cried out, the sound grating against the sides of her throat as Aiden’s glistening, sharp fangs sunk into the tender flesh of her daughter’s neck. With a burst of power, she ripped the werewolf from her child and unceremoniously tossed him across the room, a common theme today it seemed, not particularly concerned about the grandfather clock he shattered along the way. “What have you done?!” she cried, pulling Alexa into her arms as the once thrashing girl stilled, almost as if she had died. “We just said that it could kill her! How could you be so stupid?!” Jayden angrily yelled. “I couldn’t just sit here and watch her die, I had to do something!” he sat up, wiping the blood from his lips as his fangs receded and his eyes changed back to green. “You don’t get to decide that mutt!” Isaac rebuffed, now coming face to face with the shifter, chest puffed out in anger and a defiant look raging in his glimmering green eyes. “She’s my mate,” “That means nothing if she’s dea
Wolfsbane - Finding The Wolf Within Chapter 94 - Last Resort
Alexa thrashed on the forest floor in an uncontrollable manner, her body spasming horrifically in the now-destroyed sanctuary. She was clawing at her own skin as she attempted to dig out the fire spreading through her veins, nails digging into the bite on her neck. Alexa screamed as if she were being tortured from the inside out as the vampire venom disseminated through every fiber of her being. Oh God, it hurt, it hurt so bad! She was burning up from the inside. Make it stop! She pleaded silently as nothing but screams ripped through her throat. Aiden rushed to her side, almost keeling over himself as her pain burst through their soul bond uninhibited feeling like a raging ocean was trying to overwhelm him and pull him under with its intensity. Desperation bloomed in his chest as he reached out to the seizing girl and pulled her into his arms. Alexa screamed and cried out at the feel of his hands on her skin, she tried to jerk out of his arms, but he only held on tighter. “Alexa,
Wolfsbane - Finding The Wolf Within Chapter 93 - Face to Face
Spinning around Alexa came face to face with the object of her nightmares. The sight of his blood-red eyes leering at her in a bestial manner as if he were the hunter and she his prey, which she considered to be exactly the situation she was in. The cold grin that stretched across his deathly pale face sent shivers down her spine and she felt her skin break out into goosebumps. With her heart hammering in her chest, she stared back into the gleaming crimson orbs and told herself that she was not the same girl he had broken nine months ago. “Julian,” His grin spread impossibly wider, and he let out a pleased hum, stalking toward her until he stood directly before her. “Good girl, you still remember me,” he reached out with his icy fingers, reaching out he pulled at a strand of her luscious red curls, bringing it up to his nose where he took a long deep breath and almost purred as he scented her. “Your hair is longer, what a pity,” he let the silky locks slip from his fingers as he

“What?” “Dream walking. It’s when you fall into a hypnotized-like trance,” “What could cause such a thing?” “Honestly I don’t know, I’ve never seen anyone do it before,” “But you’re over a hundred years old!” “That doesn’t mean I know everything you disrespectful child!” Jean snapped at her son, angered by his need to remind her of her many years on this earth. “There must be something we can do, anything you might know Aunt Jean,” Jayden replied warily, staring at the redhead’s back in concern. “There’s a myth that dream walking is the result of a deity calling you to them, if that’s the case then it’s no wonder I’ve never seen it before,” Jean massaged her temple, willing the migraine creeping its way into her brain to disappear. “Why?” “Our Gods rarely ever interact with us directly, to summon one of us means that something of great importance is needed, and the fact that they waited for the solar eclipse to do it is even more peculiar,” “So what? Let’s snap her out of it,
Wolfsbane - Finding The Wolf Within Chapter 91 - She Calls
With his wolf-enhanced reflexes, Aiden quickly stabilized Alexa as the earth violently shifted beneath their feet. Glass décor shattered in a thunderous roar as it fell from the countertops in their room. A mutual look of concern passed between them, for they both knew that the unforeseen force behind the tremors was anything but natural. Not when it was accompanied by the shrill panic-stricken screams of their pack mates. ‘Their?’ the thought startled Alexa unsure as to when she had started thinking of this wolf pack as hers. With a shake of her head, she quickly banished the thought as quickly as it had struck her. Now was obviously not the time to dwell on such frivolous concerns. Instead, she focused on the strong hands that were securely wrapped around her upper arms. These large appendages were the only thing keeping her upright as the unnatural quake died down, but the sounds from outside did not follow suit. Without so much as a sound between them, they both dashed out the
Wolfsbane - Finding The Wolf Within Chapter 90 - Solar Eclipse
Ten months he had waited, ten grueling months he had trained and plotted his revenge. Ten long agonizingly boring months he had nurtured the ego of a foul-smelling dog and her pitiful desire to rule over her pack of wild mutts. For nearly a year he had been plagued by an unquenchable thirst and the need to claim his revenge. It was almost as if he were hyper-focused on those two fixed points in his life. And although he learned to control his new state of being surprisingly quickly that hyper-focus could lead to his own downfall. Not that the man himself noticed too fixated on enacting his revenge too much to think about anything else, much less what he would do once he had it. Shaun, who had trained the new vampire on the wishes of his mistress could see the crazed gleam in the man’s undead gaze and wondered not for the first time what his mistress had seen in the newborn. His mistress, Amara, had never been the kind to explain the reasons behind her actions and Shaun had learned
Wolfsbane - Finding The Wolf Within Chapter 89 - Confession
“You don’t know,” Alexa’s eyes welled up with tears threatening to fall, her bare feet burning unprotected from the blistering cold. Aiden looked at her with an unreadable expression, one that not even she, who had learned to see the emotion behind his eyes could decipher. “I don’t know where I’m going, I wake up in a different place each time,” “Each time? How long has this been happening?” The flash of anger through their bond was enough to ground Alexa’s shaky thoughts, and she clung onto it as if it were a buoy floating in the middle of a raging sea and she was caught up in the tumultuous waves. Alexa was at a loss for words as they stared at one another. His anger was clear in his eyes. How could she tell him that she was scared, drawn in by an unknown force that called out to her even in her waking hours? “How long, Alexa?” he asked again, with more force behind his words. “A few months,” She let out a tired sigh. “A few months?!” the shock and the anger swirled within, f
Wolfsbane - Finding The Wolf Within Chapter 88 - Dream Walker
Days turned into weeks and weeks turned into months. Spring bloomed, chasing away the winter chill, Summer burned hot that year until finally autumn leaves began to fall and the wind turned cold once more. It was funny how quickly Alexa became accustomed to living among the pack. No longer did she feel out of place as if she stuck out like a sore thumb. Eventually, many of the pack members warmed up to her presence and began accepting her not only as Aiden’s mate but as their future Alpha too. Her only problem being her unwanted run-ins with Vanessa, who was dead set on causing her as much grief as possible. Still opposed to both ideas she had learned to keep her thoughts to herself as many of the wolves couldn’t understand her opposition having been raised in pack life where all this was just another ordinary day to them. Even the few humans who had not been raised within the pack and who had had time to acclimate didn’t understand her firm stand against being labeled Aiden’s mate
