In the kitchen, Dottie tells Dane what she told me as she waits patiently for her bowl of ice cream.
“Do you know where he is now?” Dane asks when he thinks she has finished.
She closes her eyes. Her long lashes fan out across the tops of her cheeks. “It’s dark. He needs to turn on a light. I think… I think Daddy is hiding.” She shakes her head and presses her hands to her temples. “It hurts.”
“You can see his soul?” Dane asks in confusion. “From here?”
She shrugs and shakes her head, “A feeling.”
Danes eyes move to me, and I shrug. I didn’t have an answer. It was the first time I had heard of it, but then again, she did have a bad feeling about Raven at the end.
“Is he still with Klaus?” I ask Dane. “You said they were together. I will link him.”
He holds a hand up to me as a strange glaze appears in his crimson eyes. A range of expressions from concern to annoyance to anger flicker across his face.
“He’s mad,” Dottie whispers to me. She shoves a spoonful of ice cream into her mouth as she quietly watches Dane.
“They are alive,” Dane finally announces. “They got out before the fire could take hold. Brax, Klaus and his mate, Xavi.” His eyes settle on mine, “And Silas’s mate, Indy and her friend."
“Really?” Dottie asks. “They found her Silas’s friend?”
Dane nods. “And they escaped into the sea."
"Deepwater," Dottie mutters.
Dane smiles, "They are hiding in a cove and waiting for the sea to die down so they can return here. We need to be ready for what follows them.”
“What about?” I didn’t want to say her name in front of Dottie. As requested by Neah, I hadn’t told Samara about her mother. I needed to know more before she knew the truth, and I didn’t want Dottie telling her.

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?...
