The impact of the wolf slamming into his chest had been a surprise. Roman was unable to stop the momentum from dragging them both back to tumble along the dips and edges of the mountain slope As they fell down the mountain, the wolf continued to snap and bite at Roman. Then, the brutal shock of the landing against the plateau sent them sprawling in different directions. With a pained grunt, Roman got to his feet first. The wolf shifted back into the blond-haired man who had pushed him away from Bell the…

Penelope held her bow trained on Oren. He took deep breaths keeping his eye on her but making no move to attack or defend. “Ashleigh!” Penelope shouted. “I found them!” A flash of panic passed over Oren’s eyes. “Take her to Roman now!” he shouted. Behind the trees, only a few feet from where they had stopped, two men and two wolves came out. Penelope’s eyes widened. She moved her aim toward the closest to Bell and let loose the arrow. With a loud and painful cry, the wolf fell to the…

Penelope sighed. “Because Saul has narrowed it down to three people,” she said. “He asked me to help check on two of them.” “Who?” Ashleigh growled. “When all the teams were pulled in, the scouts got rearranged. I was placed at the edge along with two other people. One of them, I found not long before I found you. Dead in the snow.” “What about the other?” “No sign of him,” she said. “He was already gone by the time the alarms went off.” “Who?” “Oren.” Ashleigh…

‘I'm headed west,' Ashleigh whispered in her mind to Caleb. ‘Bell was seen being taken by a scout toward the mountain. I'm going after them.' Using their connection for communication didn't always work. Even after all these months, they still didn't quite understand how their link worked. It seemed that part of it had to do with missing each other, needing to feel one another even at a distance. All she could do was hope that he could hear her, even if he couldn't respond. She made her way into the…

Caleb and Ashleigh made better time than he had anticipated. They were still five miles from Winter, but he wanted to check the communications tower first. This was part of the treaty shared between the packs; Summer maintained communications and electricity, regardless of war or strife between the packs. As they approached, Caleb already knew from the smell in the air what they would find inside the tower. “Is that…” Ashleigh's words died on her lips as Caleb pushed open the door, and the answer…

“Alpha, your phone.” “I will call them back,” Caleb replied, continuing his work. “It’s the same number that has called three times.” “Number?” Caleb asked, taking the phone from his newest assistant. It was strange to see a number on the screen. This was a private line. Only those he was close to had the number and were, therefore, already saved contacts. “Hello?” he answered the call. “Finally!” came the exasperated reply. “Alice?” “Yes! I have been trying to reach…

Two weeks had passed since Winter had said goodbye to their former alpha. Corrine and Axel had agreed to officially declare war on Autumn. However, a series of attacks on lesser packs and the Winter scouts had kept them from sending the declaration. All scouting parties sent outside Winter were called back after three teams were attacked. Two were lost, and the third described a similar situation to what Saul had reported when Wyatt was taken. Summer was receiving their share of reported attacks, but…

Turning in the bed, her hand reached out and touched his pillow. It was still warm, but he was gone. Alice sat up, letting the sheets fall, exposing her naked breasts to the cold morning air. “Axel?” she called out. The bedroom door opened, and a robe-clad Axel stepped inside with a cup in each hand. He closed the door behind him and turned to her. A raised eyebrow and then a grin appeared on his face. “Well, good morning,” he said. Alice looked down at her breasts, then sat up straight and…

Axel looked up at her with glistening eyes and a pained expression. Alice drew in a deep breath. Her eyes filled with tears. She licked her lips and leaned forward, kissing him gently. When she pulled away, she placed her hands on either side of his face and held him so that he looked at her. “I'm not,” she whispered. “I'm not leaving you.” Tears fell from Axel's eyes, he sniffled, and his jaw shook softly. Alice shook her head. “Never,” she whispered. Axel pushed forward and kissed her…

“Human?” Axel repeated, sure he must have heard her wrong. How could she have possibly been born human? “Yes,” Alice replied. “That's not possible,” Axel said. “I mean, I know it is possible, but no… every human that has been turned has either been driven mad or died in the process of their first shift.” “That's true,” she said. “But, there are exceptions, it seems. From what I understand, two particular factors make me different from the other humans that have had the wolf…
