Selene cracked the door open and sniffed the air before stepping outside. Little Lia came out behind her, one hand holding a tiny basket and the other latched onto the edge of Selene’s long skirt to remind the child that she needed to stay close. Or that was the excuse anyway, in reality it was so Selene could feel that Lia was near and know that she hadn’t wandered off again. Her heart rate sped up just at the memory of those agonizing moments on their last excursion into the yard, when she looked up from the chamomile she was harvesting expecting to see Lia plucking the petals from their centers, only to realize she was nowhere in sight. It had taken only seconds to find her, seated in the mint bed chewing on the foliage, but it had felt like years. The fear that gripped her had been almost unbearable. Selene looked down at the mass of white blond curls and sighed. Her little wolf was far too independent and stubborn for her own good. They padded out through the grass, their bare fe

Liana stood perfectly still for a moment, watching the animal in the grass. A huge male wolf. She didn’t know how she knew it was male, but it definitely was. The way the moonlight shimmered on his pitch black fur was absolutely breathtaking. He didn’t seem to be aggressive… a large pet dog maybe? A wolf had been her first thought, but that was impossible. There hadn’t been wolves in Nova Scotia for a few hundred years. This animal didn’t seem to be planning to attack her and certainly wasn’t running away. A low growl rumbled at her through the grass again, making her heart race and she took another step back, stumbling a little. Okay, so maybe he was thinking of attacking. It certainly sounded like a wild animal. She took another step up the trail, slowly backing up the steps to her cabin. She should have listened to Gran. Never go outside at night. But the night air was so crisp and clean smelling! The breeze and moonlight had seemed to be calling her…They’d argued about it again but

Liana lay on the hardwood floor by the fire, staring up at the bunches of herbs and flowers that hung from the ceiling. Her calculus book was open beside her but not much of her homework had been finished. She’d been up late but forced herself out of bed early so Gran wouldn’t be suspicious. Her head was aching with the lack of sleep and she was more than a bit distracted but what she’d seen. Nothing could hold her attention for more than a few minutes, certainly not enough to answer these math questions. She could take the few steps to the kitchen and brew a tea to get rid of the headache, but that seemed like too much effort at the moment. It was cold out today and smelled a bit like snow. Would the wolf come back in the snow? That would be dangerous for him, Albert will be on the lookout. His black fur would really stand out if everything else was covered in white. His footprints would be easy to follow too. It would be nice to have snow for New Year's though. There hadn’t been any

Jake gave one nod of agreement. “You’re sure?” Jake raised an eyebrow. Every werewolf knew their destined mate by scent from the day they turned eighteen. It was the moon goddess's highest gift to a werewolf.“Look, I don’t know what happened, Selene never really said and I didn’t ask. It wouldn’t be my story to tell anyways. I will tell you that the older woman was running when we met her, a little over eighteen years ago. She was terrified of someone, still is actually. She has lived her entire adult life scared of this one wolf and his pack, certain that they are looking for her.” David sighed again and ran his hands through his hair making the brown curls stick out at odd angles on his head. “Okay look,” he said at last. “Liana is only seventeen, so she won’t scent a mate for a while yet.” Jake relaxed a bit against his seat. She wasn’t rejecting his scent, she was still a juvenile and not scenting him yet. That was easier to deal with.“How long until she’s of age?” “Not long,” D

Mark wiped his face and stood up from the table, calling out “Black jeep coming in fast!” Everyone in the pack house froze, catching the image from the mind link. Then they jumped up, rushing to the windows to see what was happening or to the door to get to their posts. Jake’s long strides got him to the front steps quickly. He mind linked with Jake, sharing the full image along with the scents that the border patrol had sent to him.“Is it the one you told me about from the buffer zone?” Mark asked, “That Lone Wolf’s ride?” Jake nodded. Most black jeeps would look, smell and sound the same, but somehow he was still certain this was David’s.“Seems like it, but there must be something wrong. Just yesterday David said he didn’t have any use for the bush, now here he is coming fast, apparently all alone.”“They’re Lone wolves, that would make them alone by definition,” Mark scoffed in disgust, his dislike for the idea of lone wolves obvious.“I suppose. But they’ve been there for a deca
