Dane is giving them a head start, but we all knew they were not getting out alive.
As Dane drops his hand, the Wolves charge off at a speed far greater than I can imagine. Almost like they are hyped up by the hunt. Dane shifts too, taking his time to move into the forest, like he was enjoying every second of this.
Those wolves were going to suffer. I assume they deserved it. And a tiny part of me wanted to see it happen.
“Mallory?” Damien calls out interrupting my thoughts
“Up here.” I call back
He makes his way into the room, still cradling the tiny little pup who is somehow fast asleep.
“Why do you have a Lycan pup?” Neah asks.
“It’s a long story.” his dark eyes move to me at the window. “I assume you have seen what is happening?”
I nod “And Neah has explained the rest.”
“They were planning on leaving to join Cooper.” He shakes his head in disbelief
“Why?” Neah asks
“It sounds like he made them an offer and they were too stupid to go along with it.”
“And the pup, where does he fit into all of it?”
“Mako tried telling Dane the pup was his and Kira’s. It quickly became clear that he wasn't. Turns out Kira has already left with Cooper while still preganant and Mako picked up this guy from the city. Practically threw him out of his arms when he learned the boy is a Lycan.”
“So they didn’t know that Cooper is a Lycan?” I ask
“No.”
“And decided to kidnap him?” I ask in disgust pointing to the tightly wrapped pup.
“Mako claimed he found him dumped and abandoned. Whether that’s the truth, I don’t know.”
“Damien, don’t.” I don’t think I have ever felt panic like this. My heart thuds heavily, I hear my own blood whooshing between my ears as my lungs grow tight. “I’m not ready.” But he is already stepping away from me.
“Then it’s a good job you have a whole pack supporting you.”
“And a mate.” Eric announces as he enters the bedroom.
“Give him to Neah. She’s had practice.” I move to Damien who refuses to take him back and folds his arms across his chest.
“Look at him.” He mutters instead.
I glance at Eric who is calmly watching me. He was leaving it up to me to decide.
The pup starts to move in my arms and was probably about to start crying at any second. Taking a breath, I shift my gaze to the pup. Deep brown eyes stare back at me and I feel my heart explode in the best way possible.

Execcelent! Loved it!...
What about 80? I can only go up to 79...
I am clearly coming late to this book …me definitely one of the more well written ones. I feel like Im reading a series though … like I just finished reading two books and now we are off onto another storyline. Getting used to “splutter” instead of “sputter” as a word, and still trying to work out the “Lycan” logic as Blairs explanation doesn’t really make sense given the initial explanation of how Lycans came to be … I do wish these were in physical form. I do love to flip back and forth on pages to reread previous chapters. So much arder on these apps....
I love this book. I wish there were more chapters. I read this all in a week. I know life outside of writing is more important. I will just sit and wait for more to be released. I will support you always Taylor. Thank you for sharing your talents....
Ooh and thanks to the website techs ☺️...
Whether it's pirated or not doesn't really concern me,, when are we getting the final chapters 🥹...
EclecticCelt sounds like your got massive issues because you can't understand something straightforward...
The last this book was updated was December 2024 not 3 years like someone else claimed. It can't be 3 years when the author started the story in Jan 2024. Now the story can be found on Inkitt...
I have a question. I understand this book is pirated with left out parts or adjusted. Is this version here ever going to be finished. I just want to know what happens....
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....
