Klaus
‘Stop Klaus. Just stop for a moment.’ I could sense the concern in Xavi’s tone
‘I know.’ I mutter through our link. ‘I feel it. Something is off.’
‘Retrace our steps.’ He suggests.
Turning around, Orion is staring at us. He gestures forward.
I shake my head, “No, we need to go back. Something is not quite right.”
Orion quickly jabs his finger over my shoulder in the direction we had been walking as he makes a weird noise. His lack of tongue stops him from telling us what it is he wants. His deep blue eyes are wide and I see a hint of fear.
‘He can’t be in on this.’ Xavi mutters, ‘Can he?’
‘I don’t think he is. Look at his eyes. That’s fear.’
Orion looks behind him then tries to squeeze by, beckoning for us to follow.
“Is it Indy, is she in trouble?”
He frantically nodded at me and looked around, like he was searching for something, but there was nothing other than dimly lit, stone corridors. In the end, he bites his own finger until blood appears. He quickly writes on the wall ‘Thalia has them both. I have to find Indy.’
“Okay, we will. Brax will try his best to keep Indy safe.” I offer. I hoped he would, he had made it more than clear that Xavi wasn’t allowed to touch a hair on her head. I’m certain he is not going to just let her die.
‘What do you want to do?’ Xavi asks as he gazes at me.
‘I know you don’t like either of them, but Orion is right, we need to find them.’
He rubs his large white head against my leg. ‘Then we will find them. You know I will always help you.’
We quietly move through the labyrinth of corridors. There were never any doors or windows, or even steps, just solid stone walls that run in all directions with a few torches lighting the place up. Eventually we stumble upon Orion’s message that he had written in his own blood. We had somehow gone full circle without realising it.
We hadn’t been able to scent ourselves because of that potion we took.

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?...
