Tali X Shepard Novels & Stories

“Mars, our wolves aren’t the strongest parts of us; they are just a part of us. They’re animals, savage, but not stronger or better. The same way we’re not stronger or better than them. We are equal.

She had offered to help with the setup yesterday, but she hadn't actually slept in the dorm last night—meaning the late-night air-clearing conversation I'd promised myself we would have never happened. ​Chris reached onto the desk, picking up a tray of small plastic cups filled with tequila.
