Mag-log in~Samantha~"You won't. But feel free to try. It will make the victory sweeter." He was almost gone now. Just a voice in the air. "Better make them count."Then he was gone. Completely. Just wisps of shadow that faded in the morning light.I stood there breathing hard. The silver light connecting me to Dominic started to fade.
~Samantha~Black Moon wasn't dead. The neck snap hadn't killed him. Of course it hadn't. He was too powerful for something that simple to work.We'd barely gotten Dominic loaded into the vehicle when Black Moon appeared in the mill doorway. Standing. Whole. Like Killian hadn't just broken his neck."Did you really think that would work?" His laugh echoed across the clearin
~Samantha~"No. Relic first. Sister second. Those are the terms.""Then we have a problem. Because I don't trust you.""And I don't trust you. Which is why we're at an impasse." Black Moon's hand moved.

[ALPHA DOMINIC’s Point of View]I would protect her with my life.No matter what the cost, I would make sure Samantha and the kids survive.My wolf and I agreed on the only thing that was running in my head. That even if I get killed in the process of discovering all these things that we need to fi
[SAMANTHA’s Point of View]“Killian’s behind us?”“Yes. He said he will bring his car,” Dominic answered. His eyes were on the road as he drove smoothly and fast on the outskirts of the Black Forest.He and Killian both decided not to travel on foot through the forest because they believed that the
