Dane
Raven had been right about the constant fear. Now I was paying more attention, I could hear it in Neah’s voice but her scent stays exactly the same. The strange scent she carried from our first encounter to now, the only difference was the lavender essence that accompanied her.
I could see her reflection in the window. I could see how she uses her sleeves to wipe away the escaped tears. Barely making a sound.
“For what it’s worth. Devon doesn’t sound like a monster.” I mutter. “His priority appears to be you and nothing more. As I said, he is very forthcoming with information.”
“You mean you haven’t had to torture him.” She speaks the words slowly as though she was talking about herself. I see how she fidgets on the seat. Her head turns over her shoulder to look at the locked door. Talking about torture was a trigger.
“No, it was not needed.” I wanted to get her thoughts onto something else. Turning around to look at her, I see how the tears make her blue eyes bright.
‘Just tell her.’ Aero moans
‘Do you really think now is the time? She has just asked me to stop looking for someone to help her. To find out that her mate is right here and she can’t even sense me, what do you think it will do to her?!’
He rolls his eyes at me and shuts his mouth.
Another tear rolls down her face. I hated seeing her like this.
Moving around to her, I crouch down in front of the chair and cup her face. With my thumb, I wipe away the escaped tear. Her eyes close and she leans into my hand, like it was a comfort to her.
The words tumble from my mouth. “Neah, I am your true mate.”
A little wrinkle appears above her eyebrows as they knit together. Slowly, her eyes open. She keeps her face resting against my hand and just stares at me. Properly staring into my eyes like she had when I landed on top of her at Moonshine.
My heart thuds and I feel a pull to her. I just about hold it together and stop myself from doing something stupid.
“My…. my mate?” she whispers while still frowning
“Yes.”
“No.”
“Yes, Neah.”

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?...
