“Dorothy let’s go!” Samara pulls her from her chair
“Okay.” She nods as she eagerly takes Samara’s hand. They are quick to get up the stairs and out of sight.
“Silas. It’s okay. I can help you.” I had been waiting for this. For the truth to finally settle in his mind, though it was likely temporary. I also knew that the aftermath was going to be messy.
His fists hit the wooden table with force, splitting the wood right down the middle, sending the table crashing to the ground. His chair flies back, slamming into the door. He stands tall and his bones start to crack.
“Shifting won’t help you.” I snap
“I need to go back!” He growls at me.
“No you don’t. You need to stay put, let Brax do what he has to do.” Damien tells him.
We both position ourselves ready to pin Silas if needed.
“My life is a fucking lie! My children. My mate. Everything that I have ever known. I grieved for Jarret and it is all one big lie.”
“Not everything. Dorothy said you love another.” I remind him. “Who is she?”
His crimson eyes flicker to mine. “I don’t know. I don’t see them. I just see…”
“Thalia.”
As soon as Damien mutters her name, there was no stopping Silas from shifting. His clothes rip at the seams. He drops down to all fours as the remnants of the material fall from his large black Wolf.
‘Is Silas’s Wolf bigger than me?’ Aero mutters
‘Later!’ I snap
Silas pauses to stare at me and then breaks through the door, charging out to the forest.
Damien runs after him. Removing his clothes as he moves while into his large Lycan.
Chasing my heartbroken twin through the forest was not what I was expecting. I thought there would be more chaos. The need to fight. Anything but running away. But we had finally got through to him.
I could hear Damien running on two feet and a set of four feet that clearly belonged to Silas. It sounded like Damien was gaining on him.
“We have dealt with a Witch that has caused problems. A Witch you are familiar with. You wouldn’t listen, Silas. Any mention of a lie and you refused it. But I know it placed doubt in your mind. I know it has made you question your existence. And now, it is important that you accept that. You will not be able to move on until you have.”
“You don’t, you use it.”
He sits on a nearby trunk. “My life hasn’t been mine.”
“Do you know the funny thing about all of this?” I muse, “If you had never come to find Neah, you would be trapped under that same spell, until the day you die, would you rather you have carried on like that?"
"No of course not!"
I nod. "Now will you help us eliminate the threats?"

Execcelent! Loved it!...
What about 80? I can only go up to 79...
I am clearly coming late to this book …me definitely one of the more well written ones. I feel like Im reading a series though … like I just finished reading two books and now we are off onto another storyline. Getting used to “splutter” instead of “sputter” as a word, and still trying to work out the “Lycan” logic as Blairs explanation doesn’t really make sense given the initial explanation of how Lycans came to be … I do wish these were in physical form. I do love to flip back and forth on pages to reread previous chapters. So much arder on these apps....
I love this book. I wish there were more chapters. I read this all in a week. I know life outside of writing is more important. I will just sit and wait for more to be released. I will support you always Taylor. Thank you for sharing your talents....
Ooh and thanks to the website techs ☺️...
Whether it's pirated or not doesn't really concern me,, when are we getting the final chapters 🥹...
EclecticCelt sounds like your got massive issues because you can't understand something straightforward...
The last this book was updated was December 2024 not 3 years like someone else claimed. It can't be 3 years when the author started the story in Jan 2024. Now the story can be found on Inkitt...
I have a question. I understand this book is pirated with left out parts or adjusted. Is this version here ever going to be finished. I just want to know what happens....
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....
