I had learned quickly to practise in the nude. Ripped clothes would be suspicious and only draw questions.
Dane grabs a blanket from the bed and quickly wraps it around me. His crimson eyes give me the once over. “Why?” He asks
“I’ve been practising.” I mutter back, stretching myself out and feeling a few more bones crack. There was no point in lying, he would be paying close attention to my mind now.
“Too fucking right.” He stares at me with his crimson eyes.
“Practising? As in you are letting the darkness in and then pushing it back?” Damien asks.
“No.” I frown, because I still couldn’t fully explain it. “You said it was hard. You told me that once the darkness gets in it’s difficult to get back out. That it’s almost impossible. That’s not true. Mallory did it, Salem did and so did you.”
“With a lot of hard work.” Damien replies in annoyance
“Hard work for you.” I mumble and he glances to Dane. “It’s not for me, not anymore.”
“What are you talking about?”
“Damien, you told me that there is a reason the Rogues have a darkness in them before they turn. You told me that it’s different for everyone. That it was something from their past that made them that way. But me,” I snort, because it has taken me far too long to see it. “I was born with this. It makes me who I am. I am not dark and I am not light either.”
“Neah, that’s Nyx talking.” Dane frowns at me
‘Of course he blames me!’ Nyx mutters
“No, it’s not. I spent so long fighting her. Thinking of ways to free myself from her. But I finally stopped to listen and I learned something.” I shake my head and get to my feet, tugging the blanket around me, I tie a knot to keep it up over my chest. “I’m not supposed to get rid of her.”

I recently learned that this story is pirated. To read it legally, go to inkitt.com or the Inkitt app and search for Taylor West. FYI, the Facebook group is highly cliquish, so be warned....
This is stolen and as such, a lot of my story is being left out/adjusted. The true version is on Inkitt...
OMG! This is stolen and the person who has uploaded it doesn't have the authors permission! It's disgusting tou can steal someone's hard earned work! Please come find the true author on FB Taylor west pack and this one will never be finished....
I love this book! It was a sample read for an advertised app that you must pay to keep reading. I wasn't willing to pay for each chapter, so I searched and found this site. Something I'd like to see more of is time passing. We had a little during Neah’s pregnancy, and there was a recent mention that Neah had been in the pack for two years; I didn't know that much time had passed. Until I heard it had been two years, I thought all the events were happening back to back. That's why it would be nice to have a sense of the passage of time—just a thought....
Is there an update when the next chapter will be available?...
