“Neah,” I sigh, knowing she wasn’t going to like my answer.
“He can help. He knows where to find information. He might have already learned something. It’s what he is good at.”
“I know but I haven’t heard from him for over a week.”
‘Well done!’ Aero snaps in annoyance
Neah’s lips part as she gazes at me. There is a brief flicker of hurt in her eyes and in that moment, I felt as though my soul was being crushed. Of all the things she had learned lately, this was the thing that had hurt her. She wasn’t even upset when she found out I was a twin or that I had kept the information from her.
I didn’t like that I had hurt her. I didn’t like the way she was looking at me. It hurt deeply, right down to the core. My chest is tight and there is a strange tug at my heart that I couldn’t explain. It’s not a nice feeling and something I never wanted to feel again.
She glances over her shoulder at Eric’s home. Her blue eyes return to me. She shakes her head and strides past me without muttering a word.
“Do you want me to go after her?” Damien asks.
“No, I know exactly where she is going.” She doesn’t even look back as she continues to stomp across the grounds in the direction of Athena's home. “I’m just going to give her a few minutes.”
“I told you that you should have told her.”
“I was just trying to protect her. She is supposed to be taking it easy.” I mutter, watching Neah disappear around the corner and out of sight.
“After all this time, you still can’t see that she isn’t like other women. She likes to know what’s going on. She has her own way of dealing with things that neither of us will understand.”
“I know!” I snap in irritation. “Just keep an eye on Silas will you?”
“Is Mallory home?” He asks
“Yes, asleep.”
“Then I will be taking Silas to my place.”
I glance at him. “You two really need to sort it out.”
“I’m not the one with the problem.” He tuts as he moves to the house and pokes his head in through the door, calling for Silas. I watch as Damien leads Silas in the direction of his home.
Neah is sitting on the bench outside of Athena and Sebastian's house. A hand circles her bump as her eyes flicker between blue and black.
Sitting down next to her, I let her have her conversation with Nyx until she sighs. “You should have told 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?...
