“What are you talking about Raven?” I mutter as she tugs me into the house
“It’s not her scent.” Raven mutters. She shakes her head avoiding my gaze. “It’s on her. It’s someone she has been near.”
“Another Lycan?”
“I don’t know, there’s no way to tell the difference. You….when you first came here you smelled like a wolf. Though you had an odd scent too, from being bound. She said there were Rogues? What if it’s one of them?”
I shrug my shoulders, I didn’t know how to answer her. I didn't have a clue what a Rogue was.
“I never thought….not after Salem.” There is a hint of sadness in her eyes
“You loved Salem.”
“A part of me still does.” She sighs. “He was everything and…. And he threw it away because of my brother. Because of my pack.”
“Do you think this new mate won’t meet your expectations?” I was grateful for the distraction, even if it is only temporary.
“I don’t know. I just know he is going to have to be pretty amazing for me to even consider accepting him.”
“I will trade problems.” I half smile at her
“Your problems are my problems.” she bumps her shoulder into mine. “And one of them is heading our way.”
Through the open front door, we see Mallory making her way towards us. Her hands are shoved into her jeans pockets. A frown etched on her face. What right did she have to be angry? She was lucky we hadn't killed her already.
She stops just outside the front door. Her eyes on me. “Can we talk?”
‘The Audacity!’ Nyx snaps
“I have nothing to say to you.” I make it clear with my tone that I was not interested in anything she had to say.
She nods her head, a small smile plays on her lips. “You don’t stutter anymore.”
My eyes narrow, “Why are you here? Why did my brother bring you here?”
“He was asked too.”
“By who?” Raven demands
“My best friend. Look, I didn’t want to come. I wanted to stay in my town, but the Rogues are difficult. Damien said they are becoming feral, impossible to control.”
Raven's dark eyes flicker to me before returning to Mallory. “And where is this Damien?”
“He stayed behind, he is trying to kill the Rogues. He said if he does, he will meet me here.”
“By hurting a defenceless girl? What the fuck is wrong with you?” Raven growls
She shrugs her shoulders, “Everything.”
Mallory’s eyes shift between me and Raven. “I helped him find Jess.”
“I can’t listen to this.” I whisper to Raven.
Raven nods her head at me and tells me to go lie down.
I leave the both of them talking as I head upstairs to rest. Trey and Cassandra are dead, I didn’t think I would need to deal with anymore people from my past.
I was in and out of sleep when Dane appeared, bringing with him the stench of blood.
“Is Roan dead?” I mutter sleepily
“Not yet.” He leans over me and presses his lips against mine. “We are having some fun first.”
He pulls away from me and seconds later the shower is turned on. I wait for him to get in before I sit up and ask the burning question. “Why did you bring her here?”
He pauses to look through the glass door at me. “I was asked to bring her.”

Execcelent! Loved it!...
What about 80? I can only go up to 79...
I am clearly coming late to this book …me definitely one of the more well written ones. I feel like Im reading a series though … like I just finished reading two books and now we are off onto another storyline. Getting used to “splutter” instead of “sputter” as a word, and still trying to work out the “Lycan” logic as Blairs explanation doesn’t really make sense given the initial explanation of how Lycans came to be … I do wish these were in physical form. I do love to flip back and forth on pages to reread previous chapters. So much arder on these apps....
I love this book. I wish there were more chapters. I read this all in a week. I know life outside of writing is more important. I will just sit and wait for more to be released. I will support you always Taylor. Thank you for sharing your talents....
Ooh and thanks to the website techs ☺️...
Whether it's pirated or not doesn't really concern me,, when are we getting the final chapters 🥹...
EclecticCelt sounds like your got massive issues because you can't understand something straightforward...
The last this book was updated was December 2024 not 3 years like someone else claimed. It can't be 3 years when the author started the story in Jan 2024. Now the story can be found on Inkitt...
I have a question. I understand this book is pirated with left out parts or adjusted. Is this version here ever going to be finished. I just want to know what happens....
I recently learned that this story is pirated. To read it legally, go to inkitt.com or the Inkitt app and search for Taylor West. FYI, the Facebook group is highly cliquish, so be warned....
