“You thought we would just allow a complete stranger into our home?” Dane asks
“You are both Alpha’s. I hoped… I hoped one of you would understand.”
“He used the word bloodbath. Told us that you would get out and slaughter everyone.”
She locks her fingers together, twisting them around as she struggles to find an answer. Her words are barely audible as she mutters that Cooper told her she was dangerous.
“Did you kill someone at the prison?”
She bobs her head. “I had too.”
“You had too?” Neah presses
“Yes. I…” She takes a deep breath and closes her eyes. “It wasn’t what I told Blair. It was a nurse, that was true. He used to come in at night.” Her lip curls up and her eyes harden. “Touch me when he thought I was sleeping. I saved a fork, when he snuck in my room again, I waited for the perfect moment and stabbed him in the throat.”
Her eyes flicker up to me. “I pulled it out and made sure he never left the room as he choked on his own blood.”
It was a little surprising she wasn’t a Rogue.
“I ran. Coop found me. He didn’t make me go back though. I was too much of a risk” She lowers her gaze and blinks a few times. “He made me like this, didn’t he? Coop made it so my mind is not my own.”
“Yes.” Neah mutters. “It’s what abusers do, especially when they have been doing it for a long time.” She turns around to look at Dane and disappears up the steps. Dane follows her, leaving me alone with Samara.
“Why do they keep saying that?” Samara asks quietly.
“Because it’s true and if anyone can confirm it, Neah can. Cooper has used you. He has you doing his work for him and he does that with the promise of keeping you safe and protected. Only he hasn't kept you safe at all.”
“He talks to me. I hear him. It’s because I’m no longer stripped. Obviously I have my abilities back, I wouldn’t have just turned into that… Lycan. And the Alpha wouldn't have been able to hear me.”
“What does Cooper say when he speaks to you?”
“That he will get me out. That he is working on it.” She pulls her shoulders up around her ears. “Something about a mate. Sometimes he sounds angry. He blames me for something.”
“For what?”
“I don’t know. His voice can be loud, sometimes it is barely a whisper. Other times it isn’t even there.”
“Have you always heard him?”
She shakes her head at me. “Only when he wanted me too.”
I move towards the steps

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?...
