100. An adorable chainsaw

Her mouth has softened and opened and a soft snore escapes her lips. I bite my lip hard to keep from laughing. She snores, and goddess help me but it’s adorable.I can’t help myself; I aim my phone carefully and take a quick photo of her, then turn to video and record a few seconds of the chainsaw sound that is coming from her. I’m not sure what I’m going to do with either yet, but I know they will come in handy in the future – something to tease her with – just between the two of us.Satisfied with my additions to the photo file I have started on my phone I lay back and read through some council reports until it’s an hour before Finn will arrive. She’s still sleeping against me, her snoring comes and goes and it’s time for me to wake her up.[“Willow?”] I link to her softly. She snuffles against my chest a little but doesn’t wake.[“Willow, baby it’s time to wake up.”] I try again, this time giving her shoulder a little shake as well. She grumbles back, stretching and yawning, her ha

101. Zale stakes his claim...again

“Honestly, Zale was the one that helped me start to look again. He has some…connections and recognised the crest on the patch I was found with. He managed to contact my grandparents, and we had it confirmed this morning with a DNA test.” I’m leaving out a lot of other details, but I haven’t lied to him. He tenses up a little as I mention Zale, the two of them have an odd reaction to each other it seems.“Zale knows your grandparents, that’s a wild coincidence Wills.” He says shaking his head in disbelief.“I know, it’s insane – seems a bit like fate – like we were meant to meet.” Zale’s voice slides over to the two of us as he walks around from behind the hedge separating the two driveways. He’s dressed in jeans and a black polo shirt, and I feel my libido sit up and take instant notice. When he gets close he holds out a hand to me, hauling me up to stand, his hand sliding behind my head and giving me a soft kiss before whispering. “Hey baby.”I kiss him but firmly pull back and give

102. Dinner is served

“We have a lot of years and stories to catch up on; you won’t begrudge me monopolising Finn for them will you?” GeGe asks, her eyes sparkle as she looks between Zale and I sitting closer together even though we are on different chairs.“Of course, not GeGe – have at him.” I wink back at her, and she giggles delighted as my response. Pops grunts and gives me a perceptive shake of his head but I can see his gruffness is all for show, he’s enjoying the banter between the two of us, seeing our bond to each other grow stronger.I zone out a little as Finn continues to share photos with my grandparents, telling the story behind each one. It’s nice in a weird way to see them getting on with him. I wish Dad and Anders were here as well, but their shift won’t finish for another two days.“And that’s how pizza Fridays and foot rubs started.” Finns finishes and Pops and GeGe are laughing. Finn gives me a knowing grin, and I hold my beer up to him in salute. Foot rub Fridays started from him los

103. A fated connection

“Right Anders? Zale?’“Yes we love a good forest hike.” Anders confirms with a grin, taking a swig of his beer.“Huh.” Finn stares at me and I can see how hurt he is. I feel awful, I have been such a bad friend since all of this started. Not calling or texting, practically avoiding him.“Have you not been to the cabin Finn?” Zale asks and I swear he’s taunting Finn with the way he says the word ‘cabin’..[“What the hell are you doing?”] I demand[“Nothing.”] He sulks.[“Bullshit – stop it. Now.”] I kind of want to punch him right now. Instead, I sneak a hand under the table again and dig my nails into his thigh in clear warning to cut it out.“You have a cabin Willow?” GeGe asks sensing the sudden tension.“It’s Dad’s cabin actually, it’s small but we like to go there to relax with each other and bond with …nature.” I explain, but I can still feel Finn’s stare burning into the side of my face. I really need to find a way to bring him into the community – he needs to know what’s happen

104. Finns favor

[“You did notice that he cut me off earlier, didn’t you?”][“I did, and he hasn’t told her. Pretty much told me so when we were at the hospital. Told me it was a conversation for the two of them and no one else. I hate to say it – but I like his answer.”] I let my hand rub her shoulder in slow circles as she relaxes into my side.[“I like that answer too, shows he’s protective of her and keeping things private between the two of them. Shows respect.”] She mumbles a little sleepily. It’s still a little early for her to want to sleep but I will need to go soon and so enjoy the affection while I can – noting at Zale has his arm slung across Wills chair and her hand is also resting on his thigh too.They look like the perfect match.----ZaleI’m in trouble.I just could help myself; I had to antagonise Finn and now Wills is mad at me. Not exactly the state of mind that I want her in when I talk to her about our bond later tonight. I’m going to need to smooth things over with her before

105. Alpha Gerald takes his leave

[“On it – I set the appointments up in your calendar once I have them confirm.”] She confirms, I don’t know what I would do without her there to plan my life. I know she loves to do it but should get her something to show my gratitude.[“You will need a dress too Sandy, please have it charged to my account when you find one you like, for all the hard work and support you have given Wills and the Doyle pack this last month.”] I link directly to her.[“Awe, you big softy, thank you I will.”] She links back and I roll my eyes at her response.“What time should I pick you up?” Finn asks as I reengage with the conversation again.“What time does it start?” She rubs my thigh again in comfort. I don’t know if she is consciously doing it or not – it’s a very mate like thing to do. It does help to ease my irritation, and I go back to sliding my fingers over her clan bite again, letting her know I’m ok without words. I have it sorted.“It opens at six thirty, but you know these things don’t rea

106. Late night calls and walks

“You should know that my senses on these things are as accurate as Wills were on the she – wolfs bond today.”If I’m reading him right, he’s telling me that he’s a Toniar as well – but not like Willow and her mother – without actually telling me he is a Toniar. His bloodline is incredible powerful it seems.“We appreciate the advice and will of course work with Willow and your mate to see it done.” Anders promises in the expectant silence of the car. Gerald nods once and then he sits back again. The rest of the drive is in companionable quiet as we all try to reconcile ourselves to the changes that Wills has already brought into each of our lives – and the ones that have yet to come.I park the car and let Anders take Gerald in to meet his protective detail. I have this strange feeling in my gut. I’m not sure what it is exactly but it’s making me uneasy, as if I should shift and head home right that second. Instinct calling me to act, but why?I push it aside and say my last goodbyes

107. Wills in danger

“Yes you can come with us.” The tall of the two says and pulls out what looks like a gun.I step back shocked.“Wills! Down. Now!” Finn shouts as he grabs something from his car and sprints back to me. I do as I’m told and try to duck down quickly, landing in an awkward crouch on the road.One of the two men, all dressed in black I now note, how did I not notice that before, turns to confront Finn. The one holding the gun, repositions it down to me aiming at my stomach and I feel a hard stinging punch hit me when he pulls the trigger, as I try to crab walk backwards away from him.Fuck that hurt.I look down at my stomach expecting to see a bullet hole, and blood but…is that a tranquiliser dart? I lift a hand to pull it out and bring it to my face for a closer look.Yep I think it’s a tranquiliser dart.The man shoots me in the stomach with another one and I look up at him with shock and mutter “OOWWWW! That’s a little overkill don’t you think.”“Sorry Willow, our orders are to bring

108. Mate instincts take control

Georgia tosses a pair of shorts at me through the gap between the front seats, adjusts her seat forward and then turns the car around and drives back to the hospital.“I have alerted Dr Gamwell, he will be waiting for us.” She calls back quietly and I nod. I can’t seem to make myself respond or think clearly. I should have called the wolves straight away, instead I panicked and started running to Wills.“She’ll be alright Zale, smells like she was hit with a tranquiliser.” Georgia remarks as she pulls into the emergency bay at the hospital. I step out, pull on the shorts, and then pick Wills back up, running her into the hospital.Dr Gamwell is there waiting as promised, which is good because I don’t have the patience to wait for him. He leads me straight into a room, gesturing to the bed. I lay her down carefully as a nurse starts to put a blood pressure cuff on her along with a bundle of other monitors and wires. Dr Gamwell, lifts out the tranquiliser cartridge still stuck in her st

109. Barricading her in his den

[“You can come in. Just you.”] I take a deep breath and walk to the bedroom door, glancing back to make sure Wills is still asleep and still safe. I don’t like not having her in my sight my wolf bristles every time that I turn my head. It takes a few seconds before I hear Sandy’s soft footfalls, and I open the door a slither to peer out and make sure she’s alone. I don’t know why I’m checking that when I trust her, but I can’t seem to help myself at the moment.“I see you Zale, I have to go back for a second bag of supplies. This bag is for Willow, Luna Seraphina helped to pack it herself.” She drops two bags at the door and then turns on her heel to go back for the other supplies. I wait until she is going down the stairs at the end of the hall before opening the door fully and pulling the bags quickly into the room.She reappears a few second later carrying a cooler and a few shopping bags, I open the door further for her to bring them in, but she stops a meter away and waits. “I’m
