Her voice travels through the house. She’s giggling about something. It was like music to my ears. A sound that I hadn’t heard in so long, it made my chest pound with pure happiness. If only her mother could see her now.
I would come home from a hunt to find my baby wide awake and playing games with her mother. She was always so excited to see me and my mate would tell me the same thing every single time. Dorothy couldn’t sleep without a goodnight kiss from me. That last night, I never even got to tuck her into bed.
My heart had more than shattered. It was made one hundred times worse by the fact there was no trace of Dorothy anywhere. Just a fucking note from Blair with the words, “I win!” She had covered their tracks perfectly.
Following the giggles to the kitchen, I see Dorothy laid on the floor as the Lycan pups crawl all over her. Her giggles echo throughout the house.
I look at the twins, one identical to Dane while the other had Neah’s features. Neither of them had a bad soul, yet. At this age, they have tiny balls of light to reflect their souls, not a millimetre of darkness to be seen anywhere.
“She loves playing with them.” Dane tells me.
“They are Lycans.”
“You have been raised to believe they are all bad. But take it from your kid, they are not all like that.”
“The boys are just pups, they haven’t developed yet.”
“I’m not talking about them. I’m talking about Damien and Mallory. She loves them both.” He points to my baby girl.
“Is Daddy mad?” Dorothy asks quietly
“No, I’m not mad.” I offer her a smile and drop down to her level. She looks directly at me without returning the smile. Her eyes are just as bright as her mothers.
“Not you, my other Daddy.” I feel a tightening around my heart, it feels like it’s being crushed
“He’s not your Daddy, baby girl.”
“Yes he is. He saved me. Daddies save us.”
My kid loved a Lycan as though they were family and I hated that.
“Daddy Damien isn’t mad.” Dane tells her. “He had to go and check on Raven.”
“Raven’s sad?” Her small voice asks
“Yes.”
“Jenson made her sad because he is dying?” She squeezes a little teddy bear to her chest.
Dane goes quiet. He stares at my little girl. I recognise the look, it’s the exact same one I get when I say something and they don’t understand how I know.

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?...
