Wolfsbane: His darkness, Her Light 17. Face your fears
Finn I checked on Everest every few hours throughout the evening. She slept like the dead, barely moving at all. I couldn’t stop thinking about what I’d seen earlier. Did she have magic in her bloodline somewhere? Obviously, there were stories about gifted wolves, but they were extremely rare, and nothing like what I’d seen her do. Even stranger was that she didn’t remember it. She had glowed like the sun. Her whole aura had burned with light and fire. I hadn’t been able to get close to her to help her, and the fear I’d felt at the idea of her getting hurt was nearly unbearable. It was after midnight now, and she’d been asleep for over half the day already. I crept in to check on her again and saw that she’d kicked off her blankets. I walked over and pulled them up, tucking her back in and she stirred and started mumbling. “Finn…” she said softly. My heart leapt thinking she’d woken and caught me there, but she was mumbling in her sleep. I couldn’t help but smile. I liked the idea o

Everest Every nerve in my body was on fire. Finn’s fingers sent lightening sparks across my skin. I was already soaked at his touch, and my core throbbed for him. His lips pecked and sucked down my stomach, leaving marks. My toes curled and my back arched at the feel of his teeth grazing my skin. His hands gripped my hips as his lips moved to my inner thighs. The sensation on the sensitive skin there made me moan. Maybe I'd caught him off guard, or maybe he was changing. I didn't care. Right now I only wanted, no needed, to be closer to him. “You like this, gorgeous?” He said huskily. “Yes” I gasped, as he continued to nip and suck on my inner thighs. His claw suddenly grazed across my skin, shredding my panties, leaving me bare. His fingers made their way up the back of my thigh, leaving goosebumps, to my clit. He began to massage me, making my core throb. “Oh, fuck yes” I moaned. His eyes flashed with hunger. I moved my hips to his rhythym, revelling in the ache of desire grow

Finn Everest passed out almost immediately, but I couldn’t sleep. My mind was racing. She was incredible. I was hard again at the thought of how perfect she was. Her scent engulfed me as I laid next to her. There was a moment where I nearly lost control and marked her. My wolf almost claimed her as ours. If a wolf was claimed before breaking the mate bon, they'd likely die after severing it. It made my heart race thinking about. I started to panic that I’d just made a mistake. Would she expect that to change everything? Had it changed anything? It couldn’t. What remained of the wall of ice inside my chest hardened and a layer of frost coated my heart. I sat up gently so I didn’t wake her and dressed as quietly as I could. I left her in her room. It was nearly three in the morning now, but sleep was the last thing on my mind. She was on my mind. Ugh no. I ran my hands through my hair. I needed to shake her from my thoughts, and I needed to stay away from her now. This was getting too

Everest I woke up to an empty bed. I could tell it was late in the morning already. I checked my phone beside my bed, and it read half passed eleven. I’d slept nearly half the day away already. There was an ache between my legs that was going to make walking today a bit uncomfortable, but I’d never felt happier. I stretched, making the ache twinge. I hopped up to shower, letting the hot water wash away the hours of sleep I’d had. I wondered when Finn had left. I didn’t know where we stood, and I wasn’t sure if things were going to be different now. I didn’t feel bad about anything…If anyone was going to be my first, I’m glad it was him. I towel dried my hair, letting my waves fall loose and natural down my back. I dressed in a pair of dark blue high-waisted bike shorts and a flattering white sports bra with an open back. It was already hot outside, and I was hoping to get to do some training today. I felt like I had a ton of anxious energy to burn off. I paused by the door, eyeing my
Last Updated : 2022-08-06Wolfsbane: His darkness, Her Light 21. Irritable
Finn I left the hospital after talking with Marley and instead of answers I felt like I just had a million more questions. Everests effect on her had no doubt cured her, but it had also left a mark. How was it possible for any of this to be happening? I wanted to check on her, but I had to keep my distance. ‘Caleb?’ I called through the mind link. ‘Sup boss?’ ‘Have you seen Everest today?’ I tried to be nonchalant about it, but I don’t think I pulled it off. ‘Yeah, she came and stole Kali away an hour ago or so. Why?’ ‘I need you to keep an eye on her…something happened yesterday with her and Marley, and I don’t want her left alone.’ ‘Sure, but that sounds like a job you’d want’ he snickered, obnoxiously. ‘Caleb, for once please just do as I ask without being annoying’ I shut off the link before he could respond. I had been more irritable than normal with him, but I had a lot on my plate, and he’d been relishing in his time with his new mate, which didn’t thrill me. At l
Last Updated : 2022-08-07Wolfsbane: His darkness, Her Light 22. The beginning of the end
Everest Sienna had gotten up and walked away from Finn hurriedly. He stood there, eyes on me, watching to see how I’d react. I wasn’t a stranger to his rage…I knew he had a temper, and I’d been on the receiving end of it already a few times. Plus, what he’d said had been to defend me…not that I condoned strangling young women, but I knew in his mind he was protecting me. And now knowing that they’d had sex before…my stomach churned at the thought of it. He stood there frozen with his eyes burning and chest heaving, so I approached him slowly. Memories from the night before flashed in my mind making me feel flushed. His scent hit me and all I could think of was the way his skin felt on mine…his fingers between my legs…his lips…his huge, thick...I took a deep breath, trying to focus. By the time I reached him he seemed to have relaxed a bit. “Hey, everything okay?” I asked him, concerned. My eyes looked towards where Sienna had disappeared. “I’m-yeah, I’m fine.” He shook his head s
Last Updated : 2022-08-07Wolfsbane: His darkness, Her Light 23. We need to talk
Everest On the bottom floor of the packhouse there was a common room tucked at the back. It had a theater size flat screen, a ton of cozy couches and chairs, a fridge fully stocked with snacks and drinks, a pool table, air-hockey, videogames, and every board game you could possibly imagine. This is where we met Dayna and Lupin for our girl’s night. We started the night off with a line of shots and played every kind of drinking game you can imagine. Lupin and I teamed up for beer pong against Dayna and Kali and got absolutely slaughtered by them, making us far more intoxicated than we’d intended. After a few hours of games, we sat down and starting chatting, getting to know each other better. “So, I spend most of my time travelling to neighbouring packs talking about the benefits of having female betas and trying to break barriers for more women to be higher ranked in the packs. At first it felt like a lost cause, but over the last year or so a lot of alphas have really come around.

FinnI grabbed a pair of shorts from the house and went back to meet Everest at the lake. She wanted to talk, and I felt a pang of anxiety at the thought. Was she going to finally reject the bond after everything I’d put her through? The idea, the it was what I thought I wanted, sent a sharp stab of pain through my chest. My fear of losing her had out done my fear of loving her tonight and Sienna had almost paid the price with her life. Granted she deserved it, but Everest had asked me not to. Banishing her hadn't been fun, but there was no way she was going to go unpunished for what she'd nearly done. I reached the grassy lawn before the sandy shores of the lake and saw Everest sitting down in the grass, her arms wrapped around her legs. She’d changed out of her bloodstained shirt and now wore a simple white t-shirt with light denim shorts. Her feet were bare, and the light from the moon made her golden hair look silvery. I sat down in the grass next to her and leaned back on my hands

Wolfsbane: His darkness, Her Light 64. Weapon
EverestPain. It radiated through every part of me, sharp and unrelenting, dragging me into a cold, suffocating reality. I had a long gash down my forearm that dripped blood steadily. My wrists burned where the ropes dug into my skin, tied so tightly behind me that I could barely feel my fingers. I was no longer in my wolf form…He must’ve soaked the ropes in wolfsbane. My body trembled, human and vulnerable now, as I hung limply from the tree they’d tied me to.Iza’s voice slithered through the air, soft but venomous.“You look so fragile like this,” he purred, crouching in front of me. His black eyes glinted with cruel amusement, the shadows of his magic flickering around him like living things. “Where is your precious glow now, hmm? Where is Selene’s power?”I lifted my head weakly, my glare cutting through the pain. “Go to hell,” I spat, my voice hoarse.Iza chuckled darkly, his pointed teeth gleaming in the dim light of the clearing. “Oh, my dear, I’ve been living in hell for cent
Wolfsbane: His darkness, Her Light 63. No More Dead Wolves
EverestThe forest swallowed me whole, the sounds of the battle fading into muffled chaos behind me. My heart thundered, every step driving me closer to the witches who had orchestrated this nightmare. The bond screamed for me to stop, to turn back and find Finn, but I pushed forward. This ended tonight—no matter the cost.Their energy pulsed like a beacon, sickly and dark, guiding me deeper into the woods. The gifts Selene had given me flared stronger the closer I got to their foul magic. On a night without a moon, my glow was all the light the forest needed. A soft silvery haze bathed the trees, the shadows twisting and curling unnaturally as though they feared my presence. My paws hit the ground in rhythmic thuds, quiet and deliberate as I honed in on my prey.Twax and Iza were close.A few more minutes of running and I saw them. Twax hunched near a crude altar, his single arm fumbling with a vial of dark yellow liquid. A low growl rumbled in my chest as I spotted his maimed should
Wolfsbane: His darkness, Her Light 62. Into the Fray
EverestFinn had barely acknowledged me in days. It was like standing on the edge of a cliff, the bond between us stretched so taut it might snap at any moment. Every glance, every word exchanged felt sharp, strained, and deliberate—like we were both trying to avoid spilling over into an argument we couldn’t come back from.He ate, slept, and lived battle preparations. He didn’t ask if I’d eaten, or if I’d rested, or if I needed anything. He didn’t linger when we crossed paths, didn’t hold my gaze longer than absolutely necessary. Didn't ask to talk, or attempt to mend things. It hurt more than I wanted to admit.It wasn’t anger I felt from him. Not really. It was something quieter, deeper. A kind of grief that twisted and coiled in his aura, pressing against the bond like a thick fog. It seeped into me every time I felt his presence, and I hated it.Ten days passed in a blur of preparation and tension until the new moon had cloaked the world in impenetrable darkness. The pack sat in
Wolfsbane: His darkness, Her Light 61. After the Fire
EverestThe air still smelled of smoke, the acrid scent clinging to the ruins of the village. The distant crackle of burning wood had long since faded, replaced by an oppressive silence that settled over the devastation. Onyx Moon felt like a ghost town—its spirit gutted by the chaos of last night.I picked my way through the streets, boots crunching over glass and debris. Broken walls leaned precariously, the remains of homes and businesses crumbled in on themselves like fragile bones. The east wing of the hospital was little more than a charred skeleton, its shattered windows framing a scene of ruin. The bodies—too many bodies—had already been shrouded in cloth. But the weight of their loss lingered, heavier than the wreckage. Bill and Annie. Gone.One of the forsaken had survived, though just barely—the one who had killed Annie. It was subdued now, locked away in a secure cell with wolfsbane coursing through its veins, but I couldn’t help wondering if there was even a sliver of the
Wolfsbane: His darkness, Her Light 60. A Storm of Blood
**this chapter contains themes of graphic violence and death**FinnThe mindlink hit like a blade slicing into my skull, Duncan’s voice frantic and cracking with terror."Alpha—monsters—hospital—carnage everywhere—"The connection snapped, leaving nothing but the echo of his panic. I shot out of bed, my wolf snarling in the back of my mind, claws already scraping for control.“What is it?” Everest asked, sitting up, her voice groggy.I didn’t answer. I was already moving for the door. My pulse roared in my ears. Something was wrong—deeply, violently wrong. I could feel it like a storm crawling under my skin.“Finn?” she pushed, her tone sharper now.“Stay here.” The words came out like a growl, harsher than I intended.Everest bristled, but I didn’t wait for an argument. I slammed the door behind me, praying she would listen this once, sprinting down the stairs, my senses locking onto the scent of blood hanging in the night air.Blood. Soaking the air square in its copper tang. Smoke
Wolfsbane: His darkness, Her Light 59. Calm before the storm
EverestTheo sat upright in the hospital bed. The sheets had been changed to get rid of the gore that had come off him. He looked straight ahead, not at Kali or I who sat either side of him, his brown eyes vacant and dissociated. He’d awoken a few hours ago but hadn’t said anything. His leg, ribs and arm had all healed nicely. His black hair was still gory, and he needed a shower, but he was alive, thank the gods. The doctors had assessed him and maintained that he was perfectly healthy, that perhaps he just needed time to recover from the trauma within his mind. Sienna had curled up on the sofa on the opposite wall when she’d heard he was okay. Poor thing had barely slept for days and had experienced some gruesome trauma of her own. Kali and I had shown Theo photos of the three of us when we were younger to try and jog his memory, but he had barely looked at them. It was like he was in some sort of daze, and he only seemed to know one word. “Sienna”. He would rasp it anytime his eyes
Wolfsbane: His darkness, Her Light 58. Awakening
FinnThe hospital’s fluorescent lights buzzed faintly, a stark contrast to the stillness of the room. Theo lay motionless on the cot, his chest rising and falling in uneven intervals. Sienna sat rigid beside him; her hands clasped so tightly her knuckles were white. She hadn’t moved since they’d brought him in, her eyes darting to the door every time it creaked open, as if expecting someone—or something—to come for them.Finn lingered near the window, his arms crossed, his wolf pacing beneath his skin. He didn’t trust her yet, not fully, but something in the way she held herself, the broken desperation carved into her expression, told him her story was far from over. Kali and Everest sat on a small sofa against the far wall, holding one anothers hands. Everests head rested on Kali’s shoulder, but her eyes were gazing out the window, distant, as though she was listening to voices on the wind. Caleb had gone to sure up the border defences and prepare the arial weapon strike we had plann
Wolfsbane: His darkness, Her Light 57. Return
FinnThe stench of blood and rot reached me before I saw them. It clawed at my senses, setting my wolf on edge. Caleb and I burst through the trees at the border, my paws digging into the earth as I skidded to a halt.Sienna.She staggered into view, barely upright, her arms wrapped around a man’s half-conscious form. His head lolled against her shoulder, and his legs dragged uselessly behind her. She looked like death warmed over—clothes shredded, face streaked with blood and grime, her movements unsteady as though the ground beneath her feet was giving way.My wolf snarled in my chest. I didn’t trust her. Couldn’t trust her. Not after what she’d done to Everest.But something in her eyes stopped me cold. Panic. Desperation. I shifted, giving her the opportunity to speak.“Sienna,” I growled, standing upright. Caleb stayed in his wolf behind me, his hackles raised as his eyes darted to the shadows of the forest. He was thinking what I was: this could be a trap.She collapsed at the so
Wolfsbane: His darkness, Her Light 56. Tonics and Turmoil
EverestThe sharp taste of bile still lingered in the back of my throat as I splashed cold water on my face. My hands trembled against the porcelain sink. Morning sickness had always seemed like a minor inconvenience in the stories I’d heard growing up—a small price to pay for the miracle of life. No one warned me how it would leave me feeling like my body was no longer entirely in my control.Finn’s footsteps echoed outside the door. He was pacing again, no doubt trying to decide whether to knock or give me the space I’d asked for. My chest tightened at the thought of the worry etched across his face.I reached for the glass bottle tucked into the top drawer. The tonic Rowena had given me sat cold and still in its glass. Its promise was simple: delay the inevitable. Buy time. Time to prepare, time to fight, time to heal.I held it up to the light, the golden liquid catching the faint glow of the lamp. Was this what a good mother would do? Was this what my child needed?Finn tapped on
