Raven
The way he spoke to me sounded so familiar. Midnight drops her guard too. It sounded just like the Jenson we know, the brother I loved. Not the mad man everyone is claiming him to be.
I hadn’t seen him since the day Jess was killed. When Damien saw him in the street, the idea of seeing him had been more than I could handle and I had fled to the car.
I still didn’t understand why he left the pack and I definitely didn’t understand why he had chosen her. The very thing he claimed he hated.
“Don’t.” I whisper, feeling my heart break all over again.
“Don’t what?” He speaks to me from the back of the cell. “Call you sister?”
I frown, looking at his tired and gaunt face. He had been handsome once. I mean all the ladies seemed to love him and he had no end of women hanging off his every word. But to me. He looked exhausted and withdrawn, not anything like how I imagined. A mate bond gave you strength, but from what I could see, it looked like his had been zapped.
I glance back at Mallory. She hadn’t said anything, exactly like I asked.
“Why did you bring her? Stupid bitch is the reason I’m here.” Jenson growls
Mallory rolls her eyes and I turn back to face my brother. “You know you are alive because of her and Dane. Dane brought you back here.”
“And chucked me in the dungeons. Though he looks like he has made some improvements since I was last down here.” He laughs. His thinning shoulders raise up and down with the deep sound. Surely Dane saw the same as what I did, that Jenson wasn’t in the right frame of mind. That something wasn’t right.
‘Aspen is weak.’ Midnight mutters. ‘The rapid shifting has made him weak. Jenson isn’t allowing enough time for the bones to heal. Almost like he is punishing himself.’
“What has she turned you into?” I ask, overwhelmed by sadness for him.
He stretches his arms out wide. “This is me, sis. I don’t know who you are talking about.”
“This isn’t you. This isn’t even a shell of you. You are not the brother I know and love.”
He chuckles again. “Maybe my mate just showed me who I’m supposed to be.”
“She’s not your mate, Jenson. She is just some whore that you attached yourself to and she is using you.”
“Jealous?”
“Of you? How can anyone be jealous of you, Jenson. I will always care about you, because you are my twin. But jealousy? You are on another fucking planet if you think I’m jealous! Do you not care about me, Dane, the pack?”
“No.”

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?...
