All Chapters of Forever in the Past and Forever in the Future: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

After making amends with Lenora by promising her two new pairs of shoes, we focus on work. In the last week, Lenora had brought in four large international contracts she had been working on for months. We need to get set up and staffed in the various countries and work with the local governments to ensure we have the correct permits to conduct our work. I know my team can do it without me, but I welcome the distraction. In my free time, I'm in my library drowning in research. The more I research, the more I feel like a speciesist asshole. For years, I let myself believe in preconceived notions about other paranormal species that simply weren't true. I never questioned what I had been told by the people around me. It's eye opening and humbling to learn the facts. It makes me realize I need to change my ways and I need to do a better job at educating my pack.In addition, Milo and Reggie are calling Alphas and drafting a charter I can present to Lady Camille. On Thursday, they present

"I think the one thing I still don't understand is when you talk about our lives that haven't happened yet. You're a goddess, so you are going to keep being reincarnated. I just have a regular old human spirit." I try to justify when she is done talking. “Actually...you're not just a regular human spirit. Just like my spirit is tied to Lex, yours is tied to Saint. I've just been attached to her longer. Your spirit had to come into existence before it could be linked to Saint's. Can you believe we've been together before? In our previous lives. Which means, so have Saint and Lex." She talks excitedly as she piles the food in layers in a ceramic dish. She looks up to see me looking at her in disbelief. I am trying to connect the dots of what she's saying. I swear I'm not usually this dense."Pick your jaw up off the floor, Sweetheart. I'm not the only one who's been reincarnated here, Bronx. You have been too. Lots of times. It's easier for Saint and Lex to remember for some reason. As

In the morning, I board the jet, only to find an unfamiliar pilot performing preflight checks. Oh, Hell no. I'm not going to fly with a pilot I don't know. First off, I have no idea what his experience is. Secondly, too many media outlets try to sneak around to get information about me and my company. I wouldn't put it past a network to plant a pilot to try to get intel on me. MasonCo is a multibillion dollar corporation. Because of the nature of our work, I usually decline interviews. I don't need any information about my clients to accidentally leak to anyone. Unfortunately, this tactic makes the media more desperate to find out how I am so successful. When I do go out in public in the human world, paparazzi always seem to find me and make up the most ridiculous shit about my business dealings and relationship status. This guy looks familiar, but I can't put a finger on where I have seen him before. Definitely not on one of my private flights. My intuition suddenly tells me I n

My heart sinks. No no no no. This is not happening. This is NOT happening! Okay, calm down, Kas. Meditate. Find him through our connection. You're a Goddess, damn it. “Alright, if I have to be on lockdown, can it be in the meditation room, please?" I ask Lady Camille. “Of course, Luna Iokaste. Please be careful in your search. Sister Delilah, please accompany your Luna. Should she need anything, you are to assist in any way you can." Lady Camille says in a comforting manner. “Thank you, Lady Camille." I sigh with my hands over my heart. Marco gently takes me by the elbow and leads me to the meditation room with James and Delilah right behind us. Marco and James have never really needed to protect me from a threat. It is shocking to see how their demeanor has changed from being watchful to being protective. There's no windows or other doors in the meditation room. It is dimly lit with mats and cushions placed on the floor. There is a hint of music playing in the background. One w

Lex's POV I can't feel Kas. For the first time in millennia, our spirits are split from each other. I know I'm a warrior, but I'm scared. Kas and I have worked through our problems together forever. Like she said, forever in the past and forever in the future. Without her, I'm just a wolf. I don't know where I am or how I'm going to get back to her. The last thing I remember, she was reaching out to the universe to find our mate. She didn't realize she reached too far. But I don't blame her. She did the right thing. We needed to find Saint and Bronx. We found them. By the time we got to Bronx, Saint was already edging to Purgatory, moments from death. Kas was amazing. She kept reaching, even after we were stretched too far. I helped but I could feel the strain on her human spirit. I reached out to Saint and made a connection with him. I led him back to Bronx. I don't know if he made it all the way. I hope he did. Saint isn't here now. Neither is Kas or Bronx. I'm so scared. I pray m
