“Afraid?” Dane asks. His eyes flicker to me.
“Because she can’t control herself when she does.” Her eyes shift to Damien. “We both know everyone struggles with the darkness in different ways.” She sighs, “But she did anyway, I mean, we saw it. She ate that deer that I crashed into. Devouring it like it was a drug.”
“You still let her go.” Dane shakes his head in annoyance.
“Because she will come for Jenson.” Damien tells him. “She will come here, looking for him because he is her mate. We can trap her, keep her hostage and find out what her plan is.”
“Or we could just kill her.” Dane mutters. “What good is a plan if she is already dead?”
Damien nods in agreement, but I still needed more answers. Answers that I would never get if they kill her.
“I need her alive.” I blurt out and feel everyone's gaze on me.
“Are you sure?” Dane asks
I bob my head. “She can’t be doing all this just because we share the same father. Because that isn’t my fault. I think there is more to her story.”
“We can see how much Jenson knows.” Mallory suggests. “Where did you put him?”
“Dungeon.” Dane answers abruptly and walks out of the office.
I follow him to the kitchen, where he starts to fill a bucket with cold water. Pure anger is written across his face. He moves to the ice machine and chucks the ice in the cold water.
“Dane….”
“We agreed no more secrets, Neah. I seem to be the only one that is doing that.”
I feel my heart drop. “I know…This wasn’t supposed to happen.” I felt enough guilt already without him reminding me.
“I won’t lose you Neah. The boys can’t lose you either.”
“I know.” I really hadn’t thought it through. “I just…. I finally feel that I have some control over my choices. This isn’t how I thought tonight would go.”
He sighs and pulls me into his arms, locking them tight around me. “Come with me, let's try getting some answers from the prick in my dungeons.
He grabs the bucket of water and hauls it out of the sink with ease.
“Why do you need that?”
“Something to help him wake up.”

Just loving how you keep trying to block me swnovels...
Hi Taylor, I found your book by accident. I really enjoy your writing, but I must admit that there’s a little more sex than I am use to, most likely because of my age 😁. I was wondering if you have released them in ebook ? I have read some of your notes to your readers and I know that you have written other books but I can’t find them in ebook format. I live in Sweden and have enjoyed reading this story as the dark nights get longer and longer. I am looking forward to re-joining Dane and Neah’s story. Thank you for sharing your marvelous talent.

Why are you ignoring the DMCA the author sent?...
I'm so glad it's being posted here, I don't have the income to pay 250 in order to unlock all the chapters. However, whenever the physical book comes out, I'll be the first to buy them. I love the story, love the way it is written (typos and all) I just cannot pay all of that money, the app is ridiculously predatory....
book 2: Bonds that bind us...
I don’t see the name of the new book. Could you please resend it?...
