‘There’s that soul shit again.’ Aero mutters. ‘I don’t understand how someone can see a soul.’
“Are you saying her soul is tainted?” I ask Abraxas. I wasn’t sure what to think of him saying he could see souls. At one time, I also didn’t think someone could be bound four times. I’ve learned a lot in the last couple of years.
“More like it has cracks in it.”
“Cracks?” Aero and I mutter in unison
“Everyone’s soul starts off as a small ball of light. It grows as the person grows, gradually taking shape of the person. Sometimes, it gets to a certain size and never grows anymore because a person is trapped in a cycle that they can’t get out of. Others, like those who have experienced levels of trauma, develop cracks. When the cracks meet, the soul breaks along with that person.”
“How bad are hers?”
“She should have broken long ago.”
“Is that how the darkness got in?”
“No.”
“How can you be sure?”
“It was already there, just waiting to be freed.” He laughs to himself. “Do you know, I’ve never really spoken to Lycans before, or Rogues. I’ve spent years watching, hunting, killing. Listening to them plead for their petty lives. I have to admit, Neah was not at all what I was expecting.”
“So if her soul is cracked. What’s keeping her together?”
“Still figuring that out. Got anymore beer?”
“No, limited amount.”
“Because of Blondie's issues, gotcha!” He smirks at me with a cocked eyebrow. “You don’t believe me, do you Dane?”
He gets to his feet and takes the empty bottle to the bin. “You believe in Witch magic though, don’t you?”
“Let’s say you are telling the truth. You said her darkness was waiting to be freed. You are talking about her Lycan, right?”

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?...
