All Chapters of The Shadow Howlers: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Gunnar stared at the young woman with long, beautiful hair that reflected the sunlight like spun gold. When he saw the young pup in her arms, he felt like a knife had pierced his heart. Was she already mated? However, when the little girl jumped down and ran to a couple a few feet away, he felt relieved. He turned back to the woman who was staring at him with gorgeous hazel eyes. Gunnar wanted to run to her, but he didn't think that was a good idea after what just happened, so he took slow, steady steps. She was doing the same until everything else just faded away, and they were surrounded by each other's scent."I… I'm Alpha Gun… Gunnar of The Shadow Howlers," Bianca smirked at him. He stood well over a foot taller than her but stumbled over his words like a lovesick teenager."I know who you are. I'm Bianca; my dad is Alpha Karl of The Last Moon Pack." She spoke with such confidence Gunnar couldn't help but smile. She was obviously younger than he was, but he didn't care

After a quick shower, Bianca put on a dark green sundress with sandals. She didn't typically wear dresses but wanted to make a good impression at her first pack dinner. When she walked out of the bedroom, she didn't need to count the doors to Polly's room. She just followed the squeals of laughter. Bianca stopped at the door and giggled at what she saw. Gunnar was sitting on the floor next to a tiny table where Trisha and Polly were serving tea. He was sipping his tea with his pinkie finger sticking out. What made it even funnier was they had him wearing a fancy white hat and makeup. His lips and some of his face were bright pink. He had dark red on his cheeks, and his eyes and eyebrows were blue. Bianca pulled out her phone and took a picture just as they noticed her. Trisha jumped up and ran to her. "I love this place. Can I stay here?" She asked eagerly. Bianca picked her up and kissed her makeup-covered face. "I'm going to see what I can do to keep you here, okay?" Trisha nodd

Bianca and Gunnar took the kidnapped Omega back to her pack. She hugged Bianca and waved shyly at Gunnar before running toward her family's house, which was next to the pack house. It was terribly late when they got home, but everyone was still waiting for them. "How'd it go?" Cyril asked as they approached the porch where he stood with Marisa, Trisha, and Polly."We put everyone that appeared to be involved in the dungeons and left some of the warriors there. Everyone else is in their homes. King Zaiden will be going to see them tomorrow. Omar will get all the evidence together, and we'll return in the morning to prepare for the King's arrival." Gunnar answered, looking at Trisha sadly. He felt sick about what had happened to her family and that Karl and Anara were completely unremorseful for the deaths they were responsible for. "Polly said I can sleep in her room so we can have a sleepover. Is that okay?" Trisha asked Bianca hopefully. "That sounds like fun. Do you

Bianca looked back at Gunnar and saw a lycan holding him back so he couldn't follow her. She had spoken bravely to the king but couldn't help the ripple of fear that went down her spine as he pulled her toward the dungeons. When they were far enough away from everyone else, he stopped and looked at her."So, do you want to tell me why you spoke to me like that? Was it because you were in front of your mate? I saw the way you stared at me when I first got here. I know you're attracted to me. We're all alone now. You can tell me the truth." Zaiden stepped close to her so his body was flush with hers and looked down into her eyes. Bianca refused to back down."You're an attractive man, I'm not going to lie, but no one compares to Gunnar. I've heard about you and your lack of morals when it comes to women. Do you really think that's what a woman wants? To be used as a man's plaything and sent away. It's disgusting." She looked up at him, speaking with a calm voice. The smirk on his face

Bianca shivered when they pulled up to the ashes that used to be the Last Moon pack house. It felt creepy to her now. It was still daylight, but there seemed to be a shadow over the former pack lands."Alright, everyone spread out. Don't leave any stone unturned." Gunnar said. Everyone went off in pairs to begin their search. Gunnar and Bianca headed toward the dungeons. When they got there, it was nothing but ash and metal. "Let's go beyond the dungeons. If they had a hidden place, it wouldn't be easily found." Gunnar took her hand, leading her past the ruble. "I've never been back here. My dad was strict on what parts of the pack lands women and children were allowed to go on. The dungeons and anywhere around them were off-limits. I just assumed it was because it was too dangerous. I never thought they were trying to hide anything." Bianca looked around, trying to find something that would show them the secret place that Trisha had talked about."I don't think we'll
