Mallory
I got shot. I got fucking shot. The bastard shot me in the stomach.
My head is fuzzy, yet being shot is the only thing that is clear.
“She’s waking up.” I hear Eric and I hear the relief in his tone.
Warm fingers lock around my wrist and another set presses against my neck. “Pulse is strong.”
I squint one eye and see Klaus smiling at me.
“I was shot.” I mutter, opening my eyes fully. I’m met with silence. My fingers move to my stomach. Bandages cover my entire torso. I start to pick at them. I needed to know how bad it was. I was pregnant.
“Mal stop.” Eric’s hands grab mine, pulling them back as I let out a whimper
“But I’m pregnant!” It wasn’t how I wanted to tell him. It was supposed to be a surprise. I wanted to tell him tonight, when everyone is on the pack run.
It’s funny how silence can be deafening. It takes me seconds to connect the dots. I had been shot in the stomach. The bandages that wrapped around me suggested that my wounds were extensive. Which could only mean one thing, I had lost our pup.
“Mallory….” Klaus starts
“No. I already know. I was just….” I turn my head towards Eric. “I’m sorry.” I'm trying to hold it together but my chest is tight and my lungs burn with the need to scream.
I could see it on his face, there was something else he needed to tell me.
Eric squeezes my hand. “The shot did too much damage, Mal. It, um… it….” I had never seen him lost for words. The news was worse than me just losing a pup.
“It’s like Raven’s leg.” I whisper, knowing what he couldn't say. “It can’t heal.” Not only had I lost the pup. I had lost the ability to have them.
“Mal, I’m sor….”
“It’s fine.” My body was trembling. It wasn’t fine, but I had to focus on something else. “Is Brax dead?” He was the fucker that shot me.

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!!!...
