Chapter 112
Out of the corner of my eye I could see Justin standing in the doorway. He had his usual blank look on his face. There was a lack of shift and he looked like he was wearing Caleb’s sweats. They didn’t quite fit him right. Justin was the last person I wanted to see. I moved the spatula around the pan to make sure the vegetables I put in didn’t stick to the side.
“I haven’t seen Caleb today. Sorry.”
He hummed and came over to see the food I had out. “Stir fry?”
Nodding, I turned and threw in some strips of leftover beef. The front door opened and shut with Caleb making a ruckus as he came into the kitchen.
“I knew something smelled good. You making enough for everyone?”
He started to reach in to grab something out of the pan and I slapped his hand away. “Get your own!”
“Come on! I just had a tough trainin

*** Skylar’s POV ***I continued to hit the punching bag even though I knew I needed to replace it. It was hanging on by a few threads, split in half from a couple of well powered kicks. Still, there was something thrilling about trying to sever the whole thing and have it fly off. Taking a deep breath, I did a low roundhouse kick and hit the meat of the bottom-half of the punching bag. The sound of tearing echoed in the quiet space of the workout area and the bag exploded from its spot. Flying across the room, it hit the wall and the grain or rice exploded against it.Biting my lip, I watched as Ethan brushed his shoulders as he walked in from the shop. I’d told him that he could come over any time today but I didn’t realize he was going to leave straight from his territory as soon as I said that.‘He’s lucky we didn’t hit him with the bag.’ Raine snorted in my mind.I was failing to keep t

Ethan waved Kevin off as I helped him to the couch. Sam was holding back her chuckle but she did grab a water bottle from the fridge. She put it in his hands and I watched as he struggled with opening the lid. Holding back so many jabs I wanted to throw, I took the bottle from him and opened it. He glared at me but I raised my eyebrows, challenging him to say something. Sighing, Ethan sank into the couch and closed his eyes. “I think I have brain damage.” “I think it’s way too late to be stating that.” Sam shook her head. Leaving Ethan on the couch, I went to the freezer and pulled out an ice pack. Holding it against my arms, I groaned. Sam was chuckling as Kevin looked from his Alpha to me. Coming over, he pulled up my arm and cursed. “Did you two need to go all out? Goddess…you could have been seriously hurt!” Ethan waved his hand. “I am seriously hurt.” Kevin scoffed. “Your brain rattling around just means that it’s still there, contrary to popular belief. Now we know. Skylar’

My phone was sitting on the coffee table and I was pacing behind the couch. Emmett said he was going to call on his new phone over twenty minutes ago. My nerves were on high alert as I looked at my phone every couple seconds, hoping I could manifest something that hadn’t happened in the last twenty minutes. Hell, I didn’t even know if he was able to get it. He could have been unable to get the phone today and all this pacing was just wearing our floorboards down.‘Sky, you need to calm down.’ Raine had been trying to calm me down this entire time but the way her tail twitched told me she was worried as well.‘I know. I know…I just…what if he got caught with it? What if something happened?’Raine sighed. ‘If something really bad happened, then Carl would call us. Don’t worry so much. He’ll call us…’She was interrupted by the ringtone of my phone. Ju

I sat outside of the pack territory in Thing. She was idling as I stared down the road. It was so weird thinking I was allowed to go on another pack’s territory. This was the first time I was driving myself and didn’t have an escort. I’d put the top up on Thing since it was getting chillier as we headed into the actual winter months. Taking a breath, I allowed Thing to roll over the territory line.Another packs territory felt weird. It was like a weight on my shoulders. Almost like the air was thicker, telling me that if I wanted to breathe better, breathe freely, I needed to get the hell out of here. I wondered if it would feel like that if I wasn’t a rogue but now I understood why rogues didn’t spend much time, if any, in packs even if they were welcome.My phone dinged and I glanced at the text message from Ethan.E: Welcome. Head on in, the guys know you are

“What do you think? I think we got it pretty straight.” “I mean, it’s about a straight as we could get it. He’s pretty dark to begin with but this particular color has some bleach in it to help lighten and get the color really to pop.” I nodded and rubbed under Niru’s chin. “You’re doing so good. Thank you. I’m sure Ethan is being obnoxious.” Niru purred and nuzzled into my hand more. Giving him a couple more scratches with my ungloved hand, I massaged the color to come to a point just behind his eyes. Sam was working on getting the tail since she was better at dyeing than I was. It was way harder with how fluffy his tail was. We had decided to do a bold blue line down his fur as apposed to getting five bottles and trying to dye all of him. I’m not sure if anyone would take an Alpha wolf seriously if they were entirely blue. Not that they would with a skunk strip of blue but Niru shot down the zebra and cheetah print ideas. My now shockingly purple hair was drying and Kevin had the

“Alright, Niru, stand still. We are going to hose you off now.”After our lunch, Kevin moved the platter to the table as Sam pulled out the hose from the side of the house. I grabbed the bottle of all-in-one shampoo and conditioner that apparently was Ethan’s go-to. Pulling off my shirt, Kevin squeaked and turned around. Laughing, I shook my head.“Kev, I have a sports bra on. I’m fine. Plus, I’m wearing boy shorts.”“What do you mean you’re wearing boy shorts…” He turned and pretty much turned back immediately.Laughing, I was mid-pulling off my pants. I wasn’t about to get my shirt or pants wet. Sam cackled as she turned on the water and adjusted the water spray. Kevin disappeared into the house and I continued to laugh.“It’s probably better that way. Ethan may just murder him.”I shrugged. “I mean, I’ve been…”Niru g

“That’s…not all…”I started to shake my head. “How? How is that not all?”“Justin attacked Emmett on his way out.”My world started to spin and I felt the safety of my space start to crumble away. “W-what? Is…is he okay…?”Another long silence from Carl made me want to throttle him. “He’s…alive.”“Alive? What do you mean alive? Emmett isn’t a fighter, Carl. He can’t take on Justin in a fight!”“I know, Kick-Butt. I know. Emmett is in the hospital. He was roughed up pretty bad. He regained consciousness a few hours after the attack.”I coughed out a sob and covered my mouth. “Is he…?”“He’s going to be okay. But it’s going to take some time to heal. I went to go see him myself. He’s beat up but still kicking. Don’t worry.
Shift Chapter 120
'Opening my eyes, I looked around me. I was in the forest back at Silver Mountain. I knew that at least. This was the northern forest though, the one right at the foot of the mountain. It was a few hours away from our main city. What was this moment?I knew this was a dream. I don’t know how but I did. Honestly, I’d been expecting to be pulled into a nightmare after everyone refused to allow me to drive home. The weight of being on the pack territory was too easy to guess that I would be plagued with memories.Suddenly, I heard howling in the distance and I started to run. I knew they were after me. I knew if they caught me, they would kill me. My little legs could only take me so far so fast. Hiding in the back of a truck, I’d managed to sneak out of the city and take it as far as I could go. This memory was from a long time ago and I could barely remember why I was out here alone. It was rare that I was without Emmett attached
