Damien
“I don’t like him. He is fucking shifty. He claims to know stuff about Lycans and Rogues. It’s a load of bullshit.” I mutter though Raven isn’t listening to me. She is busy staring at Jenson.
The guy is hooked up to every machine possible and she spends all day here, watching for the tiniest clues. Looking for something that just isn’t there.
The only reason he is alive is because of the machines.
Turn the ventilator off and the other one that’s keeping his heart pumping and that would be it, but she couldn’t accept that, even with her vast knowledge of medical stuff. Or maybe it was more that she wouldn’t accept it.
Big black circles sit under her eyes from the lack of sleep. Her lips are chapped from the lack of fluids and every piece of food I put in front of her went uneaten. Even her favourite ice cream.
“This wasn’t supposed to happen.” she whispers, gripping Jenson’s unresponsive hand. “We were supposed to stick together. Look after each other. And you had to go and ruin it!”
A single tear trickles down her cheek as she stares at her brother. “You couldn’t just accept it, could you?”
“Raven, he can’t hear you.”
“You don’t know that!” She snaps at me. “He could still wake up.”
Even Dane knew it wouldn’t happen.
“Raven, you need to sleep.” I press. I needed to get her out of here, even if it were only for a few hours.
“I can’t leave him.”
“He won’t be alone. I’ve asked Klaus to come and sit with him.”
“It has to be me. If something happens…”
“Then Klaus will link you. This isn’t good for you. You need to rest. To eat. It’s no good if you are making yourself ill too. You won't be able to help him if you are making yourself suffer.” I press, hoping that she would finally understand what I'm telling her.
Her dark eyes flicker to mine. “I can’t leave him, Damien.”

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?...
