CHAPTER EIGHTY ONE:Hazel Ellis

The day went surprisingly smoothly, considering we were meeting with packs and groups on the cats’ side of the river. There were no attacks, and no threats.We went back to my parents’ place afterward. Chandler was still staying in one of their spare rooms, so she and both of the hats she’d managed to make for Noah that day went inside with her.There weren’t any werewolves waiting to get their wolves back that night. My parents were in the kitchen, cooking together with their typical music playing while they talked and hung out.My dad kissed my mom as we walked past, and a surge of jealousy flooded me. It had been forty-eight hours since I’d gotten to touch Merrick at all, and even more since I’d gotten to kiss him.Dammit, I wanted to kiss my mate.“We’ll get this figured out,” Merrick murmured.“I know. I just wish it was already figured out,” I sighed.All I wanted was a damn hug and a kiss on the forehead—was that too much to ask for?My mom poked her head in just before I shut

CHAPTER EIGHTY TWO:Hazel Ellis

An hour later we were all full of pizza, and everyone was calm. London had grudgingly accepted Jay’s attempt to protect Liv, and everyone there had at least somewhat wrapped their minds around the idea that there was a way for someone to reject their True Mate.Even accepting that True Mates existed at all was hard for them.Eventually, they all trickled out until my parents were walking London and Gunner and their other three kids out.If Merrick and I had been staying at our own place, allowed to be together the way we wanted, we would’ve been home hours earlier, playing Call of Duty, naked, with me sitting on his lap and his arms wrapped around me so he could feel my tits on his forearms.But we couldn’t, so we weren’t.I’d been thinking about how to help Liv and Jay. They weren’t going to get anywhere until Liv actually heard him out and gave him a chance, because he didn’t sound like he was giving up. And I knew her well enough to know she would eventually give him a chance.Gra

CHAPTER EIGHTY THREE:Merrick Blake

I followed Noah out of the house, resisting the urge to smash my fist in his face for touching my little sister.“What do you want?” I growled, pulling my mind away from Hazel’s just in case I ended up needing to take him out after all. To save my sister from tangling herself up in an unhappy mating, I sure as fuck would kill the guy.Kissing my mate, who was permanently mine and absolutely unattainable to him, was a crime I’d wanted to beat him up for. But hurting my sister wasn’t something I could let go of.“I owe you an apology,” he admitted. “I messed up.” “You think?”His grimace deepened, and we kept walking further from the house. My sister had grizzly ears; she’d hear our conversation if we were close.“I grew up hearing that Hazel was going to die in her early twenties. We were friends; it scared me. I was twelve when I learned about the trials and decided I was going to go through them. Hazel needed me. I could save her.Her dad started training me then, even though he and

CHAPTER EIGHTY FOUR:Hazel Ellis

We heard footsteps on the patio—my mate and her boyfriend heading back inside. Quickly, we released each other and wiped at our eyes. Chandler’s cheeks were wet and her face was red, so it was a lost cause for her. I hadn’t shed any tears, so I was fine.The men were both whole, and I couldn’t smell blood surprisingly enough.“Everything okay?” Noah asked, his eyes going right to Chandler as he crossed the kitchen toward us. Merrick’s hands slid into his pockets, and his mind opened back up to mine. The rush of his emotions hit me hard, in the best way.He remained leaning up against the wall as a long breath left my lungs.My shoulders relaxed, my tension easing with his presence.“Yep. I think I’m going to turn in. Walk me to my room?” Chandler stood, her fingers wrapping around Noah’s bicep. He and his brothers went with their parents to a lot of big charity galas and events and shit; she would fit in perfectly there. My parents and I usually just sent extra money to apologize for

CHAPTER EIGHTY FIVE:Hazel Ellis

My nose twitched when I smelled chocolate. “I brought cake.” He stepped up to the doorway, politely waiting there. “Hey.” He nodded at Merrick. “Have you seen my female?”Liv was silent, and completely still.“No. We’re sleeping,” I complained, before Merrick could be a sucker and give away my friend. “Go away.”“Alright.” He eyed me, suspicious about the lumps in my blanket. “Mind if I grab a fork first? Since Liv’s not interested, I better eat this homemade better-than-sex cake all by myself before heading home.”“Go ahead.” I closed my eyes. “Don’t do it,” I warned Merrick. “Don’t tell him.”“He can smell her. He knows she’s right here.”“Well, he’s probably not willing to open my blanket up to get her out,” I countered.Merrick growled softly. “Better not.”I heard the microwave turn on, and then the most heavenly smell met my nose. I bit back a groan at the scent of chocolate and fudge. The microwave beeped, and the delicious smell increased as Jay pulled the cake out and cut int

CHAPTER EIGHTY SIX:Merrick Blake

Liv came strolling out of the bathroom, and I peered over her shoulder in search of my mate. When she didn’t come out, I reached out to her. “You alive in there?”“Yep. Be out in a minute.”I was going to respond to her but was distracted by movement on the armchair.My eyes landed on Liv as she dropped onto Jay’s lap, the plate of cake between their torsos. Her hands met his shoulders, and her lips captured his.My eyebrows lifted when his hands caught her hips, holding her like she was fragile as their kiss deepened. When the scent of lust rose off them, I cleared my throat.Liv pulled away, standing up and grabbing the plate and fork off Jay’s lap. She moved to the other couch, plopping down and loading her fork with chocolate. He stared at her while she ate, probably in shock.Hazel came back, sitting on my lap. My arms went around her big blanket, my chin meeting the top of her head through the blanket layers.She grabbed her cake off the couch where I’d put it and took a bite,

CHAPTER EIGHTY SEVEN:Hazel Ellis

After another long day of giving werewolves access to their animal sides again, Liv and Chandler insisted it was time for a girls’ night. I was a sucker for my girls, so I agreed.I was going to meet them at Tommy’s bar after I finished showering and getting dressed. They left earlier, since neither of them had as much shit to do as I did.“You’re sure that’s safe?” Merrick checked, eyeing my hair and the curling iron it was wrapped around. He sniffed the air, trying to smell if it was burning. He was sitting on the counter in our bathroom at my parents’ place, watching me while I got ready.“I’ve done this hundreds of times, Grizzly. I think it’ll be fine.” I released the strand from the iron, and it fell in a soft wave. “Did your mom and sister never curl their hair?”“I don’t know. I’ve never paid much attention to hair,” he shrugged. “Pink meant I could date them, red and anything else was off limits. I’m liking the dark brown beneath your red, though.” He lifted a strand of my ha

CHAPTER EIGHTY EIGHT:Merrick Blake

Branches tugged at my fur as I wormed my way through the bush, pursuing some wild berries I could smell nearby. I winced as one sharp branch dug into my skin and the metallic scent of blood met my nostrils.Finally emerging from the bush, I took a few big steps toward the berries.I opened my mouth to bite down on a cluster of them, then halted.My nose twitched as an offensive smell hit me. Cats.I chomped the berries before turning toward the rapidly approaching animals. I’d been wandering for hours, waiting for my female to call me back in the peace of my beast form. There was a lot less to worry about when I was in bear form, my mind quiet and calm. Hazel’s happiness only relaxed me more.The wind changed, and I caught another whiff of cat. That time, I smelled it behind me.Turning my head to one side, and then the other, I checked for more smells.Yup. More cats, approaching from every side.I shoved my way out of the brush surrounding the berry bush, grunting at the cuts and sc

CHAPTER EIGHTY NINE:Hazel Ellis

It felt like my heart stopped when Merrick went unconscious. In the place where his emotions, his life, his soul had been constantly moving and changing alongside mine, was a fucking black hole. He’d told me that was what it felt like, but nothing could’ve prepared me for the actual feeling.I tripped over my paws, crashing to the ground and hitting my muzzle on the ground.He regained consciousness as I made it back to my feet, hearing more drunk, clumsy shifters behind me. Everyone I’d been with had followed me into the forest, and then a few more who were on our side and realized something was wrong when I took off into the trees without a moment’s notice.“What happened?” I demanded.“Chloroform, I think.” His voice was groggy. “Some smelly shit on a rag.”“I’m going to kill them,” I seethed.“Taking out fifty cats won’t do much in the way of peace, but I’m game if you are.”I snarled. “Screw peace. They attacked you!” “And they abducted you.”Shit. Yeah, I didn’t want to remember

CHAPTER NINETY:Merrick Blake

We slept until 6:30 the next morning, then got dressed in about two minutes and headed to the cats’ land with our stomachs growling. I wanted to stop for food, but Hazel said it was rude to show up late, so we drove straight there.Parking near The Grill, the most popular hangout spot for teenagers on the cats’ side of the river, we got out of the truck and looked around.Cars lined the streets, and people lined up outside the cars. The space was eerily quiet, despite the hundreds of shifters waiting.Every eye in the line turned to us as I walked around the truck to meet up with Hazel. I couldn’t hold her hand, but I would walk beside her.“Creepy,” Hazel muttered to me.“No kidding.”We walked to The Grill, finding the ex-ruby tiger at a table near the head of the line. His face was bleeding, but he was otherwise silent as well.“Why is it so quiet?” Hazel asked him, her hand landing on her hip. She glanced over at the people again before looking back at the tiger.“Our people are a
