I sense Xavi is nervous. I knew his story, he had told me exactly what happened to him. How he was caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. He was exactly like me. A Witch Hunter. Though at the time of his curse, he had been drunk and unable to focus, celebrating the killing of another Witch. Before he had a chance to do anything, she cursed him to live forever as a Wolf.
“Are you worried?” I ask him
‘I’ve been a Wolf for six years. A part of me has forgotten what it’s like to live in Human form. To walk on two feet. To not have to hunt for every gram of food. To be accepted for what I am, who I am. I am worried, but not for me. I don’t want her to do the same to you. You have a family waiting for you.’
“I have learned alot about myself.” I remind Xavi. He had been with me every step of the way as I sought information. I had also learned a lot about Witches. Some from him, some from the hidden secrets of my past. “I wouldn’t have been able to do it without you.”
‘I’m not exactly a good Witch Hunter am I?’ He mutters, closing his eyes
“I think we are stronger together.”
He falls asleep as I listen to the rain bouncing off my van. What exactly made a good Witch Hunter? The last one I killed came back to life. But this one wouldn’t. I’m not suffering because she decided to curse my mate.

“Do you see what I see?” I ask as I climb up on top of the van, trying to get a better view.
In the distance, up the cliff, I see what looks like the pointed roofs of a castle.
‘I see it.’ Xavi mutters from the ground.
“When I read the book by Aldous, I was under the impression that it was hard to find. There was no information. I have no idea if Samara has managed to find out anything.”
‘Maybe there was something.’ He mutters as he sits.
I shake my head. “I went through that book so many times and now look," I gesture to the castle on the cliff, "it’s just sitting there, available for all to see.”
‘I don’t think it is.’
I look down to find him staring up at me. His white tail wraps around his feet as he studies 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?...
