I roll my eyes at him and look at my mother. “I found her.”
“Who?” She asks with a frown
“Daddy’s favourite little girl.”
Her brown eyes widen a little and she shakes her head. “That was a long time ago, Blair. You need to let go of the past.”
I had a feeling she was just saying it because Ryken was standing right here. If it had just been us, I know she would be smiling. It’s what we had both wanted. I knew deep down she wanted revenge for what my father had done to her, done to us.
Ryken points a finger at me. “You are fucking nuts. You do realise who she is, right?”
“Yeah, everything that I should be.”
He laughs and I feel that white hot rage creeping up inside of me.
“You were never going to be an Alpha, Blair. Your dad wasn’t an Alpha, it was a fucking lie you stupid cow.” He prods his thick finger against my temple. “Why can’t you get that to go in that thick skull of yours?”
“He lied, Blair.” My mum whispers sadly. Where was her anger? Where was her rage?
“Are you really that stupid?” Ryken shakes his head, “You are an Everwood. You could have had a chance at leading this small pack, but you fucked that up by going on this wild goose chase of yours.”
I laugh, looking around at the houses. “There’s like thirty people in this so-called pack and my name is Blair Kitson.”
He laughs at me while mum just stares at me with a deep rooted sadness
“You would rather take your half sister's name then be proud of our own pack?”
“If it gets me my place.”
Ryken laughs. “You are fucking delusional. Looks like the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. And I’m not talking about your mother.”
“You are saying I’m like my father.”
“Exactly like him. Why do you think your mother spent so long despising you?!” He mocks
“Mum?”
She turns away without uttering a single word and heads deeper into the house. Ryken throws a glance over his shoulder and then stares at me. “You had a chance here, Blair. A chance at a fresh start. I was willing to take you on as my own, to raise you into a loving family. Give you everything you missed when you were a child. But you threw that away because you can’t let go of this stupid idea of yours. Now leave, you are trespassing.”
He slams the door in my face and my heart drops into my stomach. I had really hoped mum would welcome me with open arms.
Slinking back to my car, I watch the house for a while, mulling over Ryken’s words. Every now and again I would see one of my brothers appear in the window. They never looked at me, but they were so damn happy. A million miles away from how I had felt growing 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?...
I think it very cool that you have trigger warnings!...
Stolen the latest chapter even though it refers to you. What a surprise!!!...
