“Fire became the thing that worked, deep burns take time to heal, even if you are a fast healer because everything beneath the surface carries on cooking. I managed to burn down several homes in the process. I don't regret that.”
“But Enzo, the guy you killed, he caught on quickly, I was never allowed out of his sight, ever. I couldn’t even shower or use the toilet alone. If he took me anywhere to get new clothes, he would be in the changing room with me. At night he cuffed me to the bed so I couldn’t sneak out, set a fire or strangle him in his sleep.”
She bobs her head, “So I know I’m broken Brax. I’ve heard you talk about the cracks in Neah’s soul. And I know what happens when they meet. It was only a matter of time until everything caught up with me.”
“Why haven’t you told me all of this before?” I knew she had been holding something back, but this wasn’t what I was expecting. Yet I knew the words that are coming out of her mouth are so heartbreakingly truthful.
She lets out a soft sigh, “Coming here was supposed to be a new start for me. Especially after you shot Enzo,” She rubs at her neck again, “Not once did I ever think I would lose the rest of my abilities.”
“What if you can get them back and gain your Lycan too?” It was a long shot, but it might just work.
“Don’t be stupid. This is the hand I have been dealt. This is what I have to live with.”
“No. I don’t believe you were brought into my life, just for me to watch you wither away. The higher powers work in some messed up ways, but I’m sure your death is not one of those ways.”
“Brax, it’s fine. I know what’s coming. And I am okay with it.”
“You can be so fucking frustrating.” I snap, she wasn’t even prepared to listen to what I had to say.
“Just as frustrating as having you watch me for weeks on end and making me feel like I was losing my mind before you finally accepted me, even if it was in secret!”
I cross the room and rip her off the bed. She lets out a squeal as I pull her against my chest. My lips hit hers hard and she melts into me. Her arms loop around my neck as my hands move down to her waist.

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?...
