I gasp, and air fills my starving lungs. I’m alive. How am I alive? ‘Louis?’ He doesn’t respond. My body feels heavy, and I try to remember the last thing that happened. I was on the battlefield. I was looking at Grace, telling her I loved her, before the silver from the last bullet got to my heart. Wait? Am I dead? I don’t hear any sounds of fighting. I hear moaning all around me, but nothing that sounds like death and dying. ‘I love you too, Eli.’ I hear Grace say. Her voice is soft, exhausted, like she’s burned herself out. “Grace!” I yell in my mind. But as I reach out, I feel her consciousness going dark. I push myself up. “Grace!” I call out, looking around for my mate. I see her, slumped on the ground. Angel and Cara have just turned to her. They are calling her name, shaking her shoulders. “Grace!” I hear them yelling at her. I try to stand, but I can’t, so I begin to crawl over to where Grace is lying on the ground. “What happened?” I ask when I get there. I see Rik
The Banished Beta's Saving Grace Chapter 88: Grace
Chaos. That’s all I can feel. Utter chaos. There are sounds and voices all around me. I can’t make out what they are saying, there are so many of them and they are talking over each other. I try to tell them I can’t understand them, but my voice is drowned out by theirs. I try to find Maia in my mind, but if she is there, I can’t hear her voice over the cacophony in my head. It’s overwhelming and it never stops. I bend down, covering my ears with my hands, trying to lessen the sounds, but it doesn’t help. Initially, I felt like I was going to go crazy. But eventually, the noise becomes almost background noise in my head, making it easier for me to think. I remember what happened, how I tapped into nearly 1000 wolves that were still alive and pulled their energy and strength into my aura before pushing it out to kill the hunters and save our packs. And that’s when I realize what the noise is. I connected to every pack member from three packs, and now I don’t know how to disconnect mys
The Banished Beta's Saving Grace Epilogue 1: Eli
One year later Life is amazing! After the hunter war, after everything settled down with the missing humans and after my mate woke up, things finally began to fall into place. The birth of my son, Emerson, was the most amazing moment of my life. Well, that is until today. Today, I am holding my baby girl for the first time. Emlyn Grace. She’s beautiful, perfect, just like her mother. And while I love my son more than I could ever put into words, there is something different about holding my daughter. A fierce protectiveness flows through me. It’s a feeling I’ve had with Emerson, but it’s different, more intense. There is something special about the father/daughter bond and I vow that no one will ever hurt my little girl. I lay her in my mate’s arms, watching as now the two most precious women in my life curl up and fall asleep together. I gently kiss them both on the tops of their heads before leaving them to rest. I head back to the packhouse, picking up Emerson from Carlos and Am
The Banished Beta's Saving Grace Epilogue 2: Grace
Nine years later It’s a beautiful day. The sun is shining, the weather in early fall is cooling down and the kids are all happy, healthy and currently running around like crazy people. Cara, Angel and I all had our kids around the same time, so our total of 13 kids are being raised together. Most of them have paired off by age, except poor Richie, whoops, he goes by ‘Rich’ now that he’s a mature 10-year-old. He’s sort of the odd man out, being the oldest male followed by two females who are best friends. It helped that Liam and Angel kept having babies, so when Cara and I had space in between our three each, their kids filled in the age gaps. Of course, that doesn’t count for Reagan. That’s who Angel calls her “oopsie baby”. Oopsie my Alpha ass. That girl wanted another baby, and she made sure Liam gave it to her. After her difficulty with the twins’ delivery, I’m not surprised. She almost died giving birth and it terrified Liam, so he said no more. Three years later, Angel wins by g

Hello everyone. First, thank you for your support in my initial foray into writing. Your support has been amazing and has definitley encouraged me to continue writing. As you know, my book For the Love of a Guardian is out now. This is Clint and Lily's story which, as you may have guessed, will span to the end of this book. It will primarily focus on their life together and Clint's life without Lily, but it will follow until the end of this book. This book will move into the primary spot and will begin having daily updates this week. Also, I have started another series, The Elemental Dragons, and Book 1, The Arena went live today. This will be a completely different series from the Guardians but I hope you'll give it a try and as always leave me a comment and let me know what you think. That book will become my #2, updating Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays until Love of a Guardian is complete. Many of you have asked if I will continue the Guardian series. I hadn't planned on having
The Banished Beta's Saving Grace Prologue
**This is Book Three of the Guardians Trilogy. This book contains references to events that occurred in the first two books and spoilers for those books. It is recommended that you read The Broken Warrior’s Daughter and Alpha’s Guardian Angel before reading this, the final book in the trilogy. Eli I never expected to find my mate, much less in a small town in the middle of the Appalachian Mountains where I was just passing through. Even more surprising than her being under eighteen and nearly half my age, was the fact that she was human. I had been on a bus, with a ticket paid for by an old foe, turned…not exactly friend, but no longer a foe. I had stuffed the envelope of money he’d given me deep into my backpack underneath the new clothes he’d also bought for me. All of them still had the price tags on. When the bus had stopped for a two-hour layover, I had gotten off to find a place to eat. There was only one little mom and pop diner in the small town and when I walked into the

Ten years old “How’s my beautiful girl?” My dad asks me as I walk down the stairs of our packhouse on my 10th birthday. “Good morning Daddy. I’m good. I can’t wait to get my wolf today!” I’ve been the apple of my father’s eye for ten years. He is always proudly taking me around, introducing me to our pack members and other pack members through the years. I walk over and hug him as he kisses the top of my head. “Happy birthday sweetheart.” My mother says, coming up and kissing my cheek. “How do you feel? Any different yet?” “Not yet. Should I feel different?” “It can happen at any time today, Gracie. Don’t fret.” My father tells me, chucking me gently under the chin. My parents have a big party planned for me tonight. I’m hoping that I can shift before my party and maybe I’ll be lucky enough to run into my party as my wolf. As an Alpha female and my father’s only heir, it would be fitting. The pack would love it. Everyone in the pack adores me, or at least respects my position
The Banished Beta's Saving Grace Chapter 2: Grace
I dread the morning of my 12th birthday. I know my father is getting more and more angry and if I don’t have my wolf on my birthday, it will set him off. Over the last two years, his anger and aggression have increased and the pack is suffering for it. Everyone walks on eggshells with my father now. No one comes to the packhouse any longer and I’m thankful because I don’t want anyone to see what he does to my mother. His abuse of her has gotten worse over the past year. I’m terrified that one day he will kill her. The door to my room slams open, and I jerk up out of bed. “Well?” My father says without any preamble. I just shake my head, no. He stalks toward me. “You worthless excuse for a daughter. You are nothing to me.” He raises his hand to hit me and my mother comes flying in, out of nowhere, putting herself between me and him. His backhands her, his hand slamming into her cheek. Her head whips around, spit and blood flying from her mouth. He sneers down at my mother as she tur
