“No, the one to turn me into a frog! Of course I’m talking about the one to hide my scent.”
“It was a genuine question, you don’t need to be sarcastic!” Indy scowls at me. “Did your mother not teach you good manners?”
I had met a lot of people who were afraid of me as a Hunter, but not anyone quite like Indy. She didn’t seem to care one bit, almost like Neah. Though I wasn’t the Wolf in the room that had a problem with her. Xavi’s eyes had been fixed on her for almost the entire conversation. Only briefly leaving her to look at Klaus.
“Yes he is always like this.” Klaus whispers to Xavi
Indy gets the little vial of blue liquid from the safe. Grasping it tightly in her hand. She slowly turns to face us. “This is all I have. I don’t think I can get anymore.”
“One drop every hour.” I nod, “I remember, but it’s not for me. It’s for the white Wolf.”
She turns to Klaus with an outstretched hand. Behind him, Xavi’s snout twitches, a low rumble vibrates through him.
“Not a full blooded Witch!” I snap at him. My abrupt announcement makes Indy jump. She lets go of the bottle. Thankfully Klaus grabs it before it hits the floor. For a moment, everyone is silent.
Xavi’s amber eyes shift to me.
“She is on our side. She is a half breed. Her Wolf is stronger. I suggest you pull it together if you are going to help.”
Klaus closes his eyes with a frown.
“Go on, tell me what your mate is saying because I would love to know.” I keep my eyes on Xavi
“He called you a moron.” Klaus mutters
I shrug my shoulders. I had heard worse.
“It just hides the scent, right?” Klaus questions Indy. “It doesn’t take away the other abilities, healing, strength, his connection to me?”
“I’ve used it. I swear it just hides your scent.”
Klaus squats down next to Xavi, “Are you sure you want to do this? You don’t know what is going to happen out there. She could see you and she could kill you on the spot.”
There is a brief silence as Klaus squeezes a tiny blob of blue liquid on Xavi’s tongue. He loops his arms around the neck of the white Wolf, pressing his face into his white fur. “Make sure you come back to me.”
“Orion.” Indy mutters.
Orion moves forward to the door.
“The Wolf has gone up the steps, Orion is standing guard.”
“Thank you.”
She starts to pace in a small circle. Stepping away from the peephole, I study her. “Orion knows what he is doing.”
“I know.”
“You are worried about your friend.”
“Unless we break this hold Thalia has, he is my only friend. I don't want anything else to happen to him.”
“He’s fine.” Klaus mutters, “They are already on their way back.”
“No one saw them?”
“It seems that way.” He confirms. “See, they could…..”

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....
