**** Trigger warning. Suicide. ****
Abraxas
Fire licks at my own skin as I rush forward to help. I wasn’t even within touching distance of the fire, and nothing was happening to me, yet it burned me as though I am in the middle of it. This has never happened before.
I see Ryken holding on to Mallory, stopping her from running into the flames as she screams out for Maddie over and over. She tries to pull herself free, though Ryken keeps a firm grip on her.
Act first, think later. Mallory was prone to it and I’m almost grateful there is someone keeping her from running into the fire.
She was one of the few Lycans I could tolerate.
Sweat drips from me as my skin heats up. Smoke leaks up into the atmosphere as the Wolves and Lycans surrounding me rapidly try to put the fire out or pull young Wolves and Lycans away. Any time something dies down, something else goes up in thick orange flames, sending more dense smoke into the air.
If we weren't careful and quick. The smoke may draw the attention of unwanted bypassers.
Neah and Dane run past me. He joins the chain with others, throwing water on the roaring flames. Neah grabs hold of Mallory and with the help of Ryken, drags her further back, away from her burning home.
There is something different about Neah. The black ring around her soul isn’t as dark and it isn’t pulsating like it usually is. But every crack is filled with black, almost making her soul look as if the cracks had cleared. She had let her Lycan win or she had given up.
I didn’t want to put a bullet in her, but I can’t allow another Rogue to wander this Earth.
Mallory’s scream refocuses my attention “She’s your mate!” She cries at me. “You are just letting her die!”
Ryken frowns, confused by Mallory's declaration
“She isn’t my mate.” I say for the thousandth time and turn my attention to the forest. I see Madison’s red hair, she’s close to the ground and more fire runs up my back.

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?...
