All Chapters of Chase.: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Rose I stood in the doorway of the bedroom, watching my mate sleep peacefully. The sun was just beginning to rise, casting a soft golden hue over the bed. My wolf prodded at me, reminding me we had very little time before he would notice I was gone. Time was of the essence. I wasn’t completely certain about this by any means. I was putting a lot of trust into Gregory. I wished I could get more assistance from the people up here, but everyone would try to stop me. I was the broken girl. They would think I was acting recklessly. I was broken. I wasn’t denying that. And I was being reckless. But for good reason. Everyone had decided the priority needed to be taking down Cold Moon’s insiders, and doing it in such a way that it gave no doubt to the rest of everyone up here that Snow Moon was the pack they needed to put their trust in. Very few words were ever exchanged when discussing this plan with Gregory. Shortly after Liam had drifted back to sleep, he had mindlinked me to tell

Rose Vivian appeared an hour or so after our arrival at the abandoned rogue encampment. She had trailed us, doing her best to cover my scent with the stench of rogue. Gregory had stopped by just long enough to formally introduce me to Chandler and Vivian, and tell me to sit tight until he came by next. Even if Gregory was fully confident in his cousin, I still didn’t trust him completely. I silently promised myself I would not do a thing he said unless Gregory gave the okay. Vivian, however, was a rogue through and through. The only thing that made me cautious of her was Liam’s implication that just maybe the rogue that attacked so many packs almost a decade ago was doing it for Cold Moon. If that was the case, though, I wondered if they expected Snow Moon and our alliances to only come back stronger all those years ago. Maybe that was why it took them so long to come up with a new plan. Or procrastinating for so long was part of the plan. Although, I couldn’t really say ‘my pa

Rose Vivian untied me after her return. She didn’t put them back on when we went to sleep, either. I woke up craving more, but even then she only shoved a yellow tinted tea to me. I eyed it cautiously. The earthy smell was far from appealing, nearly making me gag. “Stoneseed root,” Vivian encouraged me. “It helps quiet the heat. There’s some queen ann’s lace root in it as well to quicken the end of it.” “Wh-why didn’t you just give me this last night?” I asked, perplexed. Vivian smirked. “Best way to send a message to your exceptionally protective mate was through you. Are you telling me you didn’t enjoy it?” I shifted uncomfortably, too shy to admit I wouldn’t mind a replay. Especially if it could be in person. “Chandler is my second chance mate,” Vivian offered. “I’ve gone through heat twice, so I am more familiar than most with how miserable it is.” I looked up at her, wide eyed. “What? What happened to your first mate?” She looked down and smiled sadly at her hands. “He

Folks!!I missed an updating day! I'm so sorry to do this to you guys, but there will be NO updates the next few days for 'Chase.' I sat down yesterday and looked at the chapters to post, and I just... wasn't happy. In an effort to give you guys the best story possible, I'd like to give it a couple days and rework the ending that is in the pipeline. I don't want to be "that" author that takes a random hiatus, but it is more important to me that I give Rose and Liam the ending they deserve than just post a lackluster ending. Trust me, with the stuff I drafted yesterday, I think you guys will agree. I promise, this isn't going to be a long hiatus like I took from 'Run.' after my mom's death. Just give me until 1.23.23, and I'll have more chapters out for you. Maybe I'll even post in bulk instead of just a single chapter a day. ;) In the interim, maybe you'd like to go check out 'Run.' and see where this whole adventure started? If Snow Moon is burning you out, go visit 'Curse of a Ly

Liam I was getting twitchy. Rose had been gone for a grant total of three days, and I was well on my way to insanity. I was absolutely certain if I had to sleep a third night in a row without her, I wouldn’t want up. So I wasn’t sleeping. An illogical plan, but the only one that I foresaw as having any hope of working if the members of this pack wanted to stay alive when they asked stupid questions. I was teetering on the edge, trying to keep myself drunk enough that I legitimately could’t go find Rose and ruin the plan that had been orchestrated. I had called in sick today, and knew I would do the same thing tomorrow. Brandon would tell Oliver soon, and then one of the Alphas would start asking questions, but I couldn’t find it in me to care. Lya had done a good job of deflecting her mate’s curiosity, but it wouldn’t last forever. He was overprotective of both her and his pack, and as it stood, I was surprised he hadn’t noticed that Rose was now a rogue. That, or my sister
