All Chapters of Resurrection: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Seward was a beautiful town, very touristy, which intensified Adara’s curiosity about why they chose it. Her curiosity didn’t last long, because they probably wouldn’t be living there for long. Ramos and Juniper tended to move a lot, especially when people started asking too many questions.They had moved into a big house; she called it big because it had four bedrooms. For the first time in her life, she had her own bathroom and for her that was a little independence. She wondered if Ramos robbed a bank to be able to afford the house.Her bedroom was at the beginning of the hall, the spare bedroom was right next to hers. They called it the guest bedroom – she had no idea why – since they never had guests. The third bedroom was Ramos’ study and the master bedroom with their own bathroom.Her bathroom was right across the hall from her room and for a little while she felt like a princess. Juniper ordered furniture and it looked like a real home. She didn’t even mind knowing she’d have

James and I walked into the library for our free period and instant silence hit us. Everybody stared and I hated it. We walked to our regular table and soon Sam and the basketball team joined us. The skin on the back of my neck prickled and it felt like someone was breathing down my neck. I looked around and saw a girl I’d never seen before. She must be new.I frowned instantly at her scent. It wasn’t wolf but also not quite human. The smell was familiar somehow, like I’d caught her scent before. I also smelled nerves and fear. James kicked my foot and mouthed that she was human.I looked away quickly as I thought about my ordeal with Sarah. I wasn’t going there ever again. No human zone. Besides, we had enough problems of our own with Shoran’s pregnancy. Malachi had been locked in his study and Karani hovered more than ever.I could feel James’ pain, his concern, and his worry. It was like a rollercoaster ride with no end in sight. I loved James deeply, as my brother and as my Beta a

I closed my eyes and they snapped open again as I got goosebumps over my entire body. From the corner of my eye, I saw a dark shadow in the hall. I got up and rushed to my door. It was half open and I yanked on the door, but there was nothing there.I walked down the hall; something told me to just keep walking. I went downstairs and stood in the open plan kitchen in front of the large sliding doors that led to the patio. At the edge of the garden I saw it. The movement was so slight that I had almost missed it. A large brown wolf stood in the shadows of the trees where the woods ended and our garden began.I stood for a full minute and watched him as he watched me in return. I contemplated facing him, but something told me to stay put.“Don’t move,” Malachi whispered and I nearly jumped out of my skin. I’d been so entranced with this wolf watching me that I hadn’t heard Malachi at all.“Who is he?” I asked softly.“I’m not sure yet, but his scent is strange.”“I wonder what he wants,

In the drawing room at our house, Malachi kept a few lupiaries, or wolf diaries, and James spent a lot of his time there reading through them all. The books were filled with our lineage, history, births, deaths and imprintings that had taken place over the years. It was also filled with information on our kind and you could find almost anything in there.“I’ve been doing some research,” James said with a grin. We were in the library again and it was just before lunch.“About what?”James shifted closer to me. “Did you know that wolves can imprint without being mates?”“That’s ridiculous,” I said. I’d never heard of something like that happening. James loved knowing random facts and he started enlightening me with what he’d learned.When two wolves meet, and they imprint, they both realize it simultaneously. It takes a hold of your soul and that person becomes your everything. It was something you both felt, the same intensity and the same power.Being wolf-locked was when one wolf imp

The doorbell rang and James got up to answer it. We were all sitting in the drawing room waiting for the Fosters. We weren’t formally dressed since it was a casual get together although Karani insisted on smart casual, meaning no jeans or boots.We heard James welcome them and stood up. The Fosters were led into the drawing room and I was formally introduced to Terry, Sonja, Lucy and Ethel. I had to smile as Ethel only had eyes for James.“Welcome, Michael and Terry,” Karani said with a smile and showed them to a couch. Malachi poured drinks for them while I catered to Sonja and Lucy. Ethel had made herself comfortable on James’s lap and ignored everyone else.James was so uncomfortable that I wanted to laugh. Ethel was blatantly staring at him and I could see the disapproval in Michael’s eyes.“Ethel! Please!” Terry’s voice was harsh as Ethel clung to James. Ethel wasn’t bothered by her mother’s admonition and Terry smiled apologetically at James. “Have you imprinted, James?”“I rece
