<p class="MsoNormal">First of all, let me apologize for being absent again. This
past year has been a challenging year, as I’m sure it’s been for many others.
The last few months have been emotionally taxing for me as well. My family lost
two beloved grandmothers. I looked up to them, and they both supported my path
into writing and pretty much any crazy dream that I had. And while they will
both be greatly missed, I am pushing forward as they would want me to. It might
be a struggle to find the words to write each day, but I’m trying my hardest.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My goal this year is to finish up all of the series that I
have currently released before beginning any new ones. In the future, any new
series that I release will only be released once I’m finished writing so that
there will no longer be any extended waiting periods. I have many new ideas
that I’m excited about, but I’m going to be taking things one step at a time.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">On another note, I have decided to surround myself with
positivity. What that means is that I’ll be sharing uplifting posts. I’ll share
plans for future books, progress, and for a little change, some posts about my
other hobbies. So be prepared to see adorable baby animals and goofy goats
along with some crafts that you’ll be more than welcome to copy.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I can’t wait to get back into the swing of things, and I
can’t wait to share these moments with you, my amazing readers.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Raven</p>Raven K.

<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">Update</span></b></div>
<br />
First of all, I'm still here.<br />
<br />
Second, I want to thank each and every one of my fans for being so patient with me. This year has not gone as I had hoped and I am beyond sorry I haven't released the stories that I had promised.<br />
<br />
It's not that I didn't want to release those stories; I just couldn't write no matter how hard I tried. The reason for this is that I had become depressed. I had so many losses last year that it eventually caught up with me.<br />
<br />
The good news is that I am winning my battle with depression. I have begun to write again, and have just finished A Whisper of Winter, the second book in the Winter Fae Series. I will be releasing it as soon as edits are done. It should be ready at the beginning of October.<br />
<br />
For now, A Whisper of Winter will be my last release for this year. I've chosen this course because I'd rather not put any more deadlines on my shoulders. The last thing I want to do is disappoint anyone or fall back into my depression. In the meantime, I will be working on other books. I plan to have a lot of releases set up for next year to make up for this year's lack of releases.<br />
<br />
Also, I will be posting progress on each new story along the way and I promise to give updates each month.<br />
<br />
Along with writing, I will be working on updating the books that I have already released. I have been working on some new title page art that I'm excited about. If I have time, I will also be working on paperbacks. I have fallen way behind with those so that is something I would like to catch up with.<br />
<br />
If you have any questions about upcoming books or series, please feel free to ask. I know some of you have been waiting a while for the next books in certain series and I will be working hard to catch up with those series. Some series I will be finishing next year so I can begin releasing new series.<br />
<br />
So, bear with me a little longer. I promise you won't regret it.<br />
<br />

<hr />
Clover’s life is pretty normal. She shares an apartment with her best friend, Amanda, and is a student in college. The only issue she’s facing are the awkward moments in the apartment with Amanda’s boyfriend, Mitch. Instead of spending time at the apartment Clover begins hiding out at school.<br />
When her best guy friends Dimitri, Gavin, and Dane find out what’s happening they offer her one of their empty rooms in their house. At first, she doesn’t accept their offer, but after one more awkward encounter with Amanda and Mitch, Clover decides to move so that her best friend can have the space that they need.<br />
Was asking Clover to move in a mistake? It might have been, but Dimitri, Gavin, and Dane can’t turn back now. <br />
<a name='more'></a>They have to deal with the fact that the girl that they are all madly in love with is now living under their roof. The worst part is that they are forbidden to touch her. If they do they risk the wrath of a very dangerous vampire named Thomas.<br />
Of course, they have no idea that Clover has been crushing on them for a very long time. Being closer to them is a dream come true, but she can’t admit that to them. It’s too embarrassing because she’s nothing like the girls that typically hang out with Dimitri, Gavin, and Dane. She’s convinced herself that they wouldn’t even be interested.<br />
No matter how the guys feel, they must keep Clover from discovering their secrets. She can’t find out that they aren’t exactly human or that they have been protecting her since high school.<br />
It only takes a day of living together for things to come unraveled.<br />
The guys are barely able to stay in control of their actions. When Dimitri suddenly gives in to his desires and kisses Clover, it ends up pushing her into another guy’s arms. What makes it worse is the fact that this new guy has his own secret and nothing that Dimitri, Gavin, and Dane do intimidates him into leaving Clover.<br />
That’s when things really begin to spin out of control.<br />
Thomas shows up without warning and forces the guys to add Lincoln to their pack before nearly killing Dane. It’s the last thing that anyone wanted, but adding Lincoln to their pack comes with a perk. They now have strength in numbers to free themselves from the vampire's grasp.<br />
In a desperate attempt to keep Clover close the guys reveal their feelings for her. They try to convince Clover that the four of them would be more than willing to share her, but she isn’t quite as willing to jump into that kind of relationship. She’s unsure how it would even work.<br />
Clover hides from Dimitri, Gavin, Dane, and even Lincoln before realizing that she can’t live without each of them in her life. Instead of beginning a relationship with all of them she tries to create boundaries so that she can be with Lincoln, and only Lincoln. It’s a difficult decision, but one that she believes has to be made.<br />
Those boundaries don’t last long.<br />
Meanwhile, Clover uncovers Dimitri, Gavin, Dane, and Lincoln’s secrets and then ultimately decides to give in to her own desires.<br />
But before the guys can openly be with Clover, they need to get rid of Thomas to keep him from taking her away. With a little help from some unexpected sources, they might just have a chance.<br />
Will the guys manage to destroy Thomas? Will they be able to share Clover or will she decide that only one guy will do? Can they build a life together, or will jealousy cause everything to fall apart? Only they can decide what paths to take, and control their happily ever after.<br />

<b>Forbidden is my latest Reverse Harem story. This is going to be a standalone book and it's going to be a little steamier than I've written before. I will warn you that the characters drop quiet a few F-bombs. Since my schedule is so hectic I've decided to release this book without a pre-order period. I plan on releasing it this <u>Friday, April 19th, 2019</u>. I can't wait to share this story with everyone. I had a lot of fun writing it. I'll post links as soon as it's available.</b><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
Scarlett is a loner, but not exactly by choice. At one time
she had been surrounded by a loving father mother and best friend.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
All of that ended with a series of unfortunate events.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Now, Scarlett’s mother Vivian is gone for days, weeks, and even
months at a time. Scarlett is left alone to fend for herself while mommy
dearest searches for her next rich target.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When Vivian meets a wealthy man with two sons, she drags
Scarlett along for the ride.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The last thing that Scarlett wants to do is be friends with
Ashton and Drake. She tries to keep her distance, but the brothers have other
ideas. They want to make her life miserable.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Of course, her mother is already making sure that every
moment of every day is terrible. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
After a while, Ash and Drake begin to take pity on Scarlett.
And once they realize how horrible Vivian is they start to protect her.
Scarlett quickly finds out that she has a lot in common with Ash and that
connection pulls them closer together.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The second Vivian learns about Scarlett’s new relationship
she sets out to destroy it.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When Vivian threatens to take Scarlett away Benjamin, Ash
and Drake’s father, steps in to keep that from happening.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Unfortunately, Vivian won’t let Scarlett go without a fight.
This time is different though; Scarlett isn’t going to give up easily, not when
she’s finally found a family that cares about her and a great guy who she’s
falling in love with.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
With everything on the line, Scarlett has to put her life
into a stranger’s hands.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
But will it be enough to keep her mother from taking her
away? Will Scarlett be forced to leave those that she’s come to love? Or will
she be able to stay with Ash?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Scarlett’s path may take some unexpected turns, but in the
end, she will find happiness.</div>

One minute Ava’s world is coming together, the next it falls apart.<br />
Darkwell is under attack and Ava is cut off from Tinsley and Kane, but that doesn’t stop her from rushing into trouble to find them.<br />
Of course, that comes with a price.<br />
Ava releases control of her vampire side.<br />
When she gains control again, she finds herself in the middle of the remains of a battle. The only survivor is Ava. The morbid scene in front of Ava frightens her. It’s the exact thing that she wanted to avoid at all costs. Instead, she proves to be the monster that the humans feared.<br />
Thankfully Nix keeps her from drowning in a sea of guilt. He also manages to find Tinsley and Kane.<br />
Just as they reunite, another battle with the humans tears them apart again. This time Nix, Kane, and Dominick are forced to leave Ava behind.<br />
Luckily she isn’t left entirely alone.<br />
Even though Ava has Tinsley and Matt with her, it’s just not the same as having all of her men close by. Ava is unable to cope with the distance and when she discovers that Dominick, Kane, and Nix are in more danger than they led on she rushes to help.<br />
She runs straight into another battle.<br />
This battle brings more than just terrible nightmare fuel; it brings someone unexpected and a creature that is unlike any other.<br />
This newcomer saves Ava in ways that she never imagined possible. He brings light into her life, but not everyone in Ava’s harem is happy with this new edition. <br />
Ava has choices ahead of her; choices that could affect everyone around her. Will she fail or will she rise above it all? Only fate knows.<br />

<u><u><b><span style="color: magenta;">Group Rules</span></b></u></u></div>
<u>
</u><br />
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>1.) Be Kind and Courteous</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We're all in this together to create a welcoming environment. Let's treat everyone with respect. Healthy debates are natural, but kindness is required.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>2.) No Hate Speech or Bullying</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Make sure everyone feels safe. Bullying of any kind isn't allowed, and degrading comments about things like race, religion, culture, sexual orientation, gender or identity will not be tolerated.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>3.) No Self-Promotions or Spam</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Give more than you take to this group. Self-promotion, spam and irrelevant links aren't allowed.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>4.) Respect Everyone's Privacy</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Being part of this group requires mutual trust. Authentic, expressive discussions make groups great, but may also be sensitive and private. What's shared in the group should stay in the group.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>5.) Feel Free to Post Recommendations</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Feel free to post recommendations to read other authors, if you found a new one you love, but please don't pimp them repeatedly. If you violate this rule the posts will be removed and you will be removed from the group.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>6.) No Political or Religious Posts</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No political or religious posts will be tolerated for any reason in this group. We all have to deal with enough of them in our daily life and this group is a place to escape that, even if it's for a little while. Breaking this rule will get you banned permanently from this group.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>7.) Be Adults</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If something does offend you, please contact me instead of reporting it to Facebook. I will be monitoring the group as much as possible, but in case I miss something please let me know.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>8.) Have Fun</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Last but not least, have fun. This group is where we can laugh, enjoy each others company, and gush over book boyfriends and in some cases book girlfriends. Feel free to be yourself here. And again, Have Fun!!</div>

I'm getting back on track so it's time for another throwback. This week I want to shine a little light on my Eden One Series. It's a completed series of four books. It's also a science fiction tale with lots of twists and turns. This series is one of my absolute favorites. I look forward to rereading it every year. I hope you'll give it a chance. I'm sure you'll love it as much as others have.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

What do we do when the world as we know it ends? What will
we do to survive? Only we can decide the answers to those questions.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Now, fast forward 237 years into the future.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Earth is no longer livable, and only seven space stations
hold the keys to our future.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Each station has its own special reasons, and each has a
certain group that will be able to travel to any new planets they find and
begin life anew.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The stations consist of the farmers, the engineers, the
scientists, the breeders, the doctors, the military, and the alphas, or also
known as the future leaders.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Mackenzie was lucky enough to be born on the military
station and is quickly following in her father’s footsteps to becoming a leader
of her very own squad, a squad that would someday be sent down to a whole new
world.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
They were the future.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As their future soon becomes reality Mackenzie and her team
are tested to their limits. She has to fight her emotions and do what's best
for everyone, but will it be enough?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Will it keep them all alive when they finally reach the
ground? And when a red devil threatens what’s between Cash and her, will Kenzie
lose him?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
On this lost planet, anything can happen.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Things aren't always what they seem.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
One second Mac finds herself with friends and the next she’s
being chased down by enemies.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Will she be able to survive, or will she have to make the
ultimate sacrifice in order to ensure her team’s future?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
Fox’s whole life has been turned upside down, and all
because of one tiny human girl and her team. He finds himself willing to do
anything for her, even if it’s the last thing he wants to do.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When one of her teammates needs help, Fox has no choice but
to leave her behind, but saving Grey ends up being more than either Fox or
Riker bargained for.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Fox quickly finds himself under attack by his own people.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It ends up being him and Cash against them all.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Barely surviving they somehow manage to escape, but now they
have an even bigger issue to deal with. Mackenzie has been taken. But the
question is who took her and why.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
They get their answer when they return to the spot where Fox
had left her last.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The Gealtach, the most feared beings on the planet, were
after her. But she wasn't being chased by just any Gealtach. She was being
tracked by hunters.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Now, both Cash and Fox have hard decisions to make, but will
they make the correct ones?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Will they be able to save the girl that they both love? Or
will they choose the wrong path and lose her forever.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
Still in Aden’s grasp, Kenzie begs for an end to his
torture. Every part of her hurts, including her heart. </div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
She gives up and gives into wanting everything to just end.
All she wants is to escape the nightmare.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Day after day, hour after slow hour Aden continues to ask
the same question. Where is he? But Kenzie doesn’t even know who Aden is
referring to.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When her question is finally answered, she knows that she
must keep his secret.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Death whispers her name, but Aden won’t allow it and neither
will an unexpected Gealtach friend, Dax.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
What happens will change Mac’s future forever. But will Fox
still want her this way?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Being something not quite human is a major change for
Kenzie. Then again, being a mix of three different beings has its own complications,
especially since no one has ever been mixed up like this before.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
With a bond between both Dax and Fox, Kenzie has to choose. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Before she has a chance to escape it all, Aden yet again
interrupts her life. He takes everyone away from her.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When everything in her life shatters into pieces, one
unlikely being comes to help.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Storm, Fox’s brother, quickly allies with Kenzie even though
she has fears of his powers. And for good reason; he’s dangerous, very
dangerous.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Both Storm and Kenzie begin planning on how to get his
brother and her team back. Before they get a chance to put their plan into
action, they are forced to flee.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Instead of just going somewhere safe on Eden One, Mac
transports them to the space station.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Everything changes from there, but those changes won’t come
without a cost.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
There will be blood.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
There will be death.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And Kenzie’s world will take yet another turn.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
After finally getting free from the cell on the human’s
space station, Storm finds out that Kenzie wasn't the one who had rescued him.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It was Dax that had saved him.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Kenzie, on the other hand, had other things going on.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
She had gone mad.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Without hesitating Storm throws himself into a new mission
along with Dax.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
He needed to find her and bring her back, but first, he had
to bring back his dead brother, Fox. With his help, they could fix Dax and
Kenzie’s broken bond.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
In order to bring Fox back from death’s door Storm first
needs to find his long-lost brothers, Leaf, the leader of the wolvetts, and
their other brother Ronan.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Of course finding them would be the easy part. Talking them
into helping him bring back a brother that hadn’t been so nice, that was going
to be the hardest part.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Will it be enough though? Together can they save Kenzie?</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Waking up in a burned out room once was strange enough for
Kenzie, but to wake up in the same place over and over again was too much.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
At first, everything appeared normal, or at least as normal
got for Kenzie.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When it quickly turns into a nightmare, Kenzie finds herself
thrown into making a major decision. Who will she choose? Will she go for this
new Duine, Leaf?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Her maddening dream ends up taking away that decision for
her. She decides on Leaf; he was supposed to be her true mate after all.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Her heart was still breaking for Dax though, and the pull
between them just wouldn't fade away.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When that pull becomes too much, Kenzie gives into it and
explores it more with Dax while Leaf is away gathering fighters to fight in
their upcoming battle.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
But when Leaf returns and finds them in a compromising
position he does something drastic. Ronan thankfully sees through Leaf’s lies.
He saves Kenzie.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As all of Leaf’s lies come unraveled, their group finds
themselves under attack by the enemy. Leaf had never gotten the reinforcements.
He had brought Aden’s army down on their heads.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When everything seems so hopeless Shade comes through and
brings along the much-needed army that Kenzie needs to succeed in the war that
had begun.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The new plan now wasn't to fight on the ground.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
No, she wants to take over the sky above.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Using her powers and Dax’s combined they transport their
entire army onto Kenzie’s old home, the military station.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Getting to the station is the easy part. The hard part is
the fight they have ahead of them. It's made even worse when they lose the
element of surprise.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The Humans gain the upper hand on the Gealtach.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The war was quickly being lost even though everyone around
her was telling her otherwise. They were losing even though they couldn’t afford
to lose. Kenzie wouldn’t allow that to happen.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Dax could kick his own ass for letting Kenzie walk into
danger like he had. It was stupid to let her make such a terrible decision, but
it was for a good cause.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Meanwhile, he’s left with a battle that he had to win. It
was a battle he had to win in order to get her back.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The hardest fight wasn't the one against the humans. It was
the one raging inside of him to free Kenzie. His heart wanted to rescue her
from the horrible things he had been forced to witness through her eyes.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
There just wasn't a way to do that without compromising the
mission he had on the space station. There were too many of his Gealtach
brothers counting on him to lead.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
With his emotions held at bay, things become clear. They
would win this war with the humans on the space station, but not without a high
cost.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Many would die in the name of freedom.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
Stuck in Aden's house of horrors Kenzie is losing all hope.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
She hasn’t felt anything from Dax, and she hasn’t been able
to reach him in any way through their connection. It’s like he had built up a
brick wall.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Despair takes over.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Fear of dying in that horrid place fills her mind. Then
again, maybe death wouldn’t be so bad. It couldn’t be any worse than losing Dax
altogether.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Just when Kenzie doesn’t think she can handle any more
trauma, Aden waltzes in with terrifying news.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Dax is dead.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It’s her worst fear confirmed. But how; how could he be dead
while she’s still alive. It all becomes clear once the lies are revealed, and
the real truths come out.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Dax isn’t dead, far from it actually. He’s on a mission to
save his mate. He was coming for her and the others.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Finally, there is hope.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
But how would Dax respond to knowing that Kenzie was
pregnant? And last but not least, would she have to choose between Dax and Fox
again. Who would she pick, the father of her baby or the mate that had stolen
her heart?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The battle had already begun, but with the minor mishap of
having all of his warriors spread apart, Dax had no choice but to retreat and
regroup.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Now that they are back together as one he has to return.
Aden must die, and the compound must be destroyed.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Kenzie has her own battles going on when Dax leaves to
finish what he had started. The baby was pushing primal urges.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
They were also affecting Dax while he was in the middle of
his battles, which makes for a dangerous combination.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The urges and emotions that Dax feels from Kenzie only drive
his hatred for her child higher. He doesn’t like the fact that it isn’t his,
but he wouldn’t dare tell her that.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Kenzie knows how Dax feels though, their connection doesn’t
allow for secrets to be kept.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Only time will tell if Dax will come around.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Then again, this could be the one thing that will split them
up and force them to go their separate ways.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The future is yet to be written.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
They had won the war with Aden, and things seemed to finally
be going their way.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Dax was still a little distant, but it was something that
Kenzie thought they could overcome.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It isn’t until Dax tells her to leave that it hits Kenzie.
Maybe things couldn’t work between them.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The baby growing inside her wasn’t something that Dax could
easily get over. Leaving Dax was the only thing she could do, but it would
break her heart in the process.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The only problem she has is where she should go, and who
would keep her safe?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
There was one person still out there who cared for her,
loved her, and who could be a father figure for her unborn child.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And that’s where she was going to go.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Before she can get anywhere the baby decides now is the time
to be born, and once again Kenzie’s life is thrown off course.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It does bring Dax back but having this new powerful child
brings other dangers.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Only time will tell if they will be able to escape.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And only love can conquer all.</div>

Today's teaser comes from the story that I am currently working on, Blood Moon, Book two in the Love and Blood Series. Since I am working on this through #NaNoWriMo the story is getting done quickly. I haven't had a chance to really do any editing so please bear with me. On another note you also get to see the new cover. So, you get a teaser and a cover reveal all wrapped into one.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Anyway, here it is the second part the the story that many of you have loved.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
“You need to sleep, Dominick.” I laugh as he nuzzles his
face against the back of my neck. “It’s going to be night soon and you’ll be
tired when you have to leave.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“I’ll be fine.” He insists.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I sigh softly while reaching my hand up to stroke my fingers
through Nix’s hair beside me.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
He was sound asleep along with Kane.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“I’m kind of jealous of the connection that you have with
him.” Dominick states softly as he pushes himself up to look over my shoulder.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“There’s no reason to be jealous.” I insist. “Our connection
goes so much deeper.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Yes, it does but it doesn’t compare to what you have with
him.” Dominick argues lightly.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Either way I still love you both equally.” I reply as I
turn to look up at Dominick. “I love you, I love Kane, and I love Nix. Each of
you has a part of my heart.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“You should tell them that. Nix needs to hear you say those
words to him.” Dom stresses.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“I will when the time is right.” I reply with a soft sigh.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A moment of silence passes by as Dominick tenderly touches
my cheek.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
He sighs. “I don’t want to leave you.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“I don’t want you to go either.” I reply.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“We won’t be gone long.” He promises. “The last war that I
fought with the humans didn’t last long. The humans always severely
underestimate what we’re capable of.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“All it takes is a good show of force and they’ll retreat.”
He adds confidently.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“After what my father did to me do you really believe that
it will still be that easy?” I question.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“I don’t know, but at least we know what we’re up against.”
He replies.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
He had a point. They weren’t going into this fight blindly
but there was no telling what other secrets that my father had that could be
used against a supernatural army.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I couldn’t help but fear that I would lose one of them in
this battle.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“You’re not going to lose anyone.” Dominick replies before
glancing at Kane and Nix. “I will do whatever it takes to keep them safe for
you.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Make sure you keep Nick safe for Tinsley too.” I reply.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
He nods. “I was already planning to do that.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Without warning Nix turns on his side before reaching out
for me. He pulls me away from Dominick and snuggly against his body.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I laugh lightly as he begins purring.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Dominick shakes his head in amusement. “What are we going to
do with both a dog and cat?”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I shrug while grinning. “I don’t know but we’ve already
given them a home. They’re ours now no matter what happens.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
He snorts. “You are prefect.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
After a moment I pat the bed beside me. “Sleep, Dom.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
He nods and then lies down before closing his eyes. I watch
him as his chest stops rising and falling as he quickly falls into a deep
sleep.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Moments later I close my eyes before the darkness of sleep
pulls me into its depths.</div>

<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Tuesday Teaser!!</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today's teaser is from Brave, Book 4 in The Onyx Wolves Series. This bit is after Parker meets Jake's brothers Kane, Max, Flynn, Dane, Larik, and Gavin, who are also shape-shifting bears. Parker already met Kane briefly in Book 3 but Kane has more of a presence in this book. I'm nearly finished writing this book so watch closely for more teasers and a release date. Enjoy!!</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">W</span></b>e need to
go, now.” Kane stresses as he runs into my room with me and Jake.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
I shove the remaining clothes into
my bag before turning towards Kane as Jake grabs my other bag from the bed.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“We’re ready.” I reply.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Good, the rest of your pack are in the truck with my brothers.” Kane replies.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Lucas…?” I whisper.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“He’s with your silver wolf. He
hasn’t let go of him.” Kane replies.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
I nod and then glance around at my
room before moving forward. Together Kane, Jake, and I run downstairs before we
exit the house.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
I run towards the garage and grab
the keys to my bike and then to my jeep.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“You can take the jeep, Kane.” I
state while tossing him the keys. “Jake and I will take my bike.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Without saying a word Kane grabs my
bags from me and Jake before jumping into the jeep while Jake climbs onto my
bike. I slip on behind him and then hand him the keys.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
The engine roars to life before
Jake backs us out of the garage.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Kane stops the jeep near his truck
where the others were. Dane, Gavin, and Larik jump out of the truck before
getting into the jeep.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Seconds later we take off down the
driveway.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
The gate opens at an agonizingly
slow pace but once it’s open we ride through.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
My heart beats wildly in my chest
as I tighten my grasp around Jake’s waist as he speeds down the roads,
following the jeep and truck.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
We don’t make it far before two
bikes join us.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
They had hunters in full gear
riding them.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Jake…” I stress nervously as they
gain ground on us.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Do you trust me?” Jake asks.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Yes.” I reply quickly.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
He grunts and then revs the bike to
go faster. He pulls next to the truck and then glances over to Flynn and Max in
the back of the truck.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“I want you to jump, Parker.” Jake
states loudly.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Without hesitating I move on the
back of the bike. I stand up and then wait for Flynn to hold his hands out
towards me.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Now, Parker…” Jake commands as he
moves closer to the truck.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
I leap and grab for Flynn.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
He manages to grab me before
pulling me into the back of the truck. He holds onto me tightly as Jake slows
down. Once he’s next to the jeep he moves to stand up on the bike.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Dane reaches out for him and Jake
leaps towards the jeep.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
My heart nearly skips a beat as he
grabs hold of the jeep’s side. He slips and nearly falls but Dane manages to
pull him inside.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
The bike wobbles for a brief moment
before rolling. The hunters behind it don’t get the chance to swerve out of the
way as my bike comes their way.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
In seconds they hit the road
causing pieces of twisted metal and shattered plastic to skid across the road
along with the four bodies of the hunters.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Damn…” Flynn whispers as I bury my
face against his chest.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Even though they had been hell-bent
on killing us I still didn’t like the thought of taking a life.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
There was no way they could have
survived a wreck like that and if they had then they were in one hell of a world
of hurt.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
After a few moments Flynn pushes me
to sit down between him and Max.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“You’ve got guts, Wolf.” Flynn
states. “I’ll give you that.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
I remain quiet as I watch Jake now
sitting in the passenger seat of the jeep behind us.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
He gives me a reassuring smile
while Flynn wraps his arm around my shoulders.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Jake is tougher than you think,
Sweetheart. That little jump was nothing for him.” Flynn states before
snorting. “I imagine that you taking that leap scared him more than anything.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“His jump scared me.” I reply.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“You really care about him, don’t
you?” Flynn replies.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“I do.” I answer honestly.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Even though everything between me
and Jake wasn’t real we had become close. I cared about him and the way that he
was looking at me now said that he cared about me too.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-teZzraAUJiA/W1Tb06bE1BI/AAAAAAAAA98/uAEWQLwj4GYJKSE3tOLRO_mhhzvM-uVigCLcBGAs/s1600/James%2BCover%2BNew.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1086" height="320" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-teZzraAUJiA/W1Tb06bE1BI/AAAAAAAAA98/uAEWQLwj4GYJKSE3tOLRO_mhhzvM-uVigCLcBGAs/s320/James%2BCover%2BNew.jpg" width="217" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
Just when everything seems to be falling apart, it suddenly
comes back together leaving James and the clan in a state of shock. One second
Ivan was gone and the next he’s living and breathing as if nothing had ever
happened. It’s a joyous moment but one that doesn’t feel real.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
Once the shock wears off James is left with some unresolved
feelings that had been bothering him even before Ivan’s death. They need to be
dealt with, but first, he has a detour to take.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
That detour takes him to Jack’s hotel along with Drake.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
Staying at Jack’s are a small group of hunters; hunters who
have ties to the ones who had nearly destroyed the clan. To defeat the threat
that they pose James is more than ready to kill. He’s prepared to do whatever
it takes to ensure Harper’s safety, but he’s also determined to handle the
situation without Erik. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
Of course, when Erik finds out about James's secret, he
rushes in to take over. His presence alone annoys James. He’s had enough of
taking orders and lately Erik has been more overbearing than usual.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
They clash, and Erik does something drastic to put James
back into his place. It’s a move that ends up nearly costing James his life
when they attack the hunters.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
After the hunters are destroyed James and Erik are left
figuring out how to repair their relationship. They find their way but not
before their lives become even more complicated.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
Will this new complication destroy their clan entirely or
will it bring them closer? Only time will tell.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">Teaser</span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“James, you can come with me and,
Drake, you can go with Jack,” Erik announces.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
Drake grunts in agreement while
Jack nods his head.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
I, on the other hand, sigh while
scrubbing my hand over my face. I hated that Erik was going to be right next to
me the entire time. He would more than likely keep me from ever having the
chance to take down one of the hunters.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“Do you have a problem, James?”
Erik questions me.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“As a matter of fact, I do.” I
blurt before I can stop myself.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“Jack, do you mind if we have a
moment alone?” Erik sighs as he turns his attention towards Jack and Drake.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
Jack nods and then pats Drake’s
arm. “Come on; I’ll show you which room we’ll be going in.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
Without another word Jack and Drake
exit the office.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
Once they’re gone, Erik releases a
low growl. “I’m getting really sick of this, James. We’ve never had issues like
this before, so what’s changed?”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“Like I said before, you’ve
changed.” I snap.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
Before he can say a word, I
continue. “You’ve become a controlling asshole, Erik. Everything we do, every
move we make, has to be approved by you. It was never that way before.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“That’s because we didn’t have
Harper,” Erik replies. “Did you not see what she went through when we lost
Ivan? I’d rather avoid that at any cost. If I’m being controlling it’s because
I don’t want anyone going off on a suicide mission like you’re doing right
now.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
He takes a moment before speaking
again. “You lied straight to my face, James. That’s something that you’ve never
done before.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“I didn’t have much of a choice.
You would never have let me leave.” I reply.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“Damn right I wouldn’t have.” Erik
breathes out.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
Silence fills the room as Erik
turns his back towards me while brushing his hand through his hair.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
For a moment, images of attacking
Erik run through my mind.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
Without warning my anger builds
while my fangs cut into my bottom lip. The vampire within me was more than
willing to test Erik and his position as leader of our clan. It was an odd
feeling but a powerful one that I honestly didn’t want to go away.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
I take a step forward just before
Erik turns back around to face me. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
In an instant, his eyes turn red.
“You don’t want to do this, James.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“Yes, I do.” I bite out.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“James, if you attack me then
Harper will never forgive you,” Erik warns.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“I can deal with that after I’m the
leader. At least then I’ll be able to have her whenever I choose, and the rest
of you will have to wait for your turns.” I reply.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
There was a part of me screaming to
stop, but I couldn’t seem to.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
My vampire side was very much in
control, and there was no reining it in now. It was too late for that
especially after what I had just said.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
Without warning, Erik rushes
forward. He slams into me while wrapping his hand around my throat. As we fall
to the floor, he squeezes his hand just enough to cut off my air.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
My head hits the unforgiving concrete
floor with a crack.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
The world around me spins as sparks
flicker in my eyes.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
All fight leaves my body instantly.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“I didn’t want to do this, James.
You forced my hand.” Erik bites out as he glares down at me with unbridled
anger.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“You cracked my skull.” I choke
out.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“And now you’ve learned that I will
never take a threat lightly. I don’t care how long you’ve been a part of my
clan; I won’t hold back when you threaten what’s mine.” Erik growls before he
loosens his grasp.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“There it is; the truth. You don’t
want the rest of us to have Harper.” I whisper while closing my eyes.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
Erik stands and then walks away
without saying another word.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
I remain on the floor while my head
aches from the trauma it had endured. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“James…?” Drake breathes out as he
walks into the room suddenly. “What happened?”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“I challenged Erik and lost, that’s
what happened,” I answer honestly.<br />

I'm planning on doing this throw back thing with my books. I have quite a bit of books under my belt and some of them get looked over since they're older so I want to shine a light on them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The first book I want to shine a light on this week is dear to my heart. I absolutely love this story. I go back and read it often. It's a bit on the sad side but it has a wonderfully happy ending. It's about losing someone and learning how to survive the heartbreak and depression that follow. It's about family and finding love. When I first started writing this book screamed to be written and I honestly believe that there is a large part of me in this story. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Eden Grayson is a girl who had spent her entire life on top.<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
She had it all, popularity, great friends, and the boyfriend
that every girl wanted.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Everything was perfect until her parents split up. Life as
she knew it comes crashing down around her when Eden's father leaves her and
her mother for another family and another life, one that he had made while
still with her and her mother.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Eden's friends turn their backs on her and the boyfriend she
thought she could count on leaves her all alone.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Feeling lost and without hope, Eden spirals into a deep
depression.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
There’s only one who can save her, Levi Mackey.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As an outsider himself they quickly form a friendship that
they both come to rely on.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Their strong bond quickly transforms into love, but when an
unexpected tragedy splits them apart will Eden be able to survive? How will she
go on without him, she doesn't have a clue.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Eden fights her inner darkness as she mourns her loss, and
with the help of her family and a few unexpected friends, she will overcome it
all.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
She finds real love again, but not before she finds herself.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And only then can she help those around her.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Eden, the truly invisible butterfly, will emerge the most
beautiful butterfly of all while leaving her pain and sadness behind.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>

Excerpt:</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“When you have those moments, just think of me, call or text
me when you feel weak. I will always be there for you. Nothing about this will
be easy; life is hard. We just feel it more than most because our souls have
been broken and are raw.” – Logan.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">Ava has
everything that she could ever want; great supportive parents, an amazing
boyfriend, and a job that’s actually not so bad. She lives in a small town
where even though the world around them has been plunged into chaos it’s
remained relatively untouched. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">Why the
chaos, well because vampires and werewolves, along with every other
supernatural creature, have come out of hiding. Most just want to live normal
lives with humans, but others don’t. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">Those
creatures that don’t want a peaceful existence are what Ava and the rest of the
human population fear. They’ve caused more than their fair share of nightly
mayhem.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">Luckily,
the small town where Ava lives hasn’t had any issues, but that’s only because
they run those creatures out of town before they ever have a chance to become a
problem.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">Of
course, that doesn’t entirely keep them from running into danger, but they can
certainly try.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">Even with
precautions accidents happen and cars break down, which is something Ava learns
real quickly when her car breaks down in the middle of the night on the side of
a secluded road.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">In an
instant, Ava’s life is flipped upside down.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">All it
takes is one vampire bite and a mouthful of blood to seal Ava’s fate. She only
has two options. Either she dies, or she transforms.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">When things
don’t exactly go as planned, Ava finds herself all alone. Her parents believe
she’s a monster and her boyfriend Jake, well the last look that Jake gave her
wasn’t one of love but of disgust.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">Ava
thankfully finds an unlikely friend, a werewolf. He takes her to a town that’s
a safe haven for vampires and shapeshifters of all kinds.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">That’s
where she meets Loki, a vampire who instantly connects with her. He takes it
upon himself to teach her how to live like a vampire and how to control her
urges. Of course being a vampire comes with some new and unexpected lifestyle
changes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">One
thing that she has to get used to is the fact that vampires aren’t monogamous.
They create harems to satisfy their needs. Even though she’s hesitant to jump
into a new relationship she quickly finds herself in more than just one.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">Ava
finds real love but it also comes in a few different forms.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif";">Her
heart may get broken in the process of finding her way, but she’ll survive.
She’ll survive thanks to those around her and the love that they share.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
My eyes lock with his while he
lifts the second bag to his lips. I watch him as his eyes turn red while his
fangs descend and then pierce the plastic.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Seconds later my fangs cut into my
bottom lip as I try and fail to stay in control of my overwhelming emotions.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
The sight had my hormones on
overdrive.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
I needed him in the worst way.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Loki raises his brow while pulling
the bag away from his lips. A small bit of blood trickles from the side of his
mouth, and I completely lose all control.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
I rush forward and press my lips
against his.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
At first, he stands frozen in place
before he wraps his arms around me while taking the kiss deeper. He groans as I
nip his bottom lip with my fangs just enough to draw blood.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Closing my eyes, I taste him. I allow
his blood to flow over my tongue.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
The moment comes to a halt when
Loki pushes me back. “We can’t do this. You’re not ready, and I’m not
about to take advantage of you.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Instead of allowing him to push me
away I step forward. “Shut up and kiss me, Loki.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
He snorts while shaking his head.
“You’re not making this easy for me.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“I need this,” I argue as I move
even closer to him.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Are you sure?” He questions while
placing his hands on either side of my face.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Yes.” I answer easily.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Before he can say another word, I
push my lips against his again. This time he doesn’t hesitate to match my
intensity.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Within a few minutes, Loki lifts me
into his arms without breaking our kiss before he carries me over to the bed.
He gently lays me down while hovering over my body.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Are you absolutely sure that I’m
who you want?” He pushes while searching my eyes.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Yes, Loki, you are exactly what I
want and need,” I reply breathlessly.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“If we do this I’m not going to let
you go.” He warns. “I’m not going to just be a one night stand or a way for you
to escape your emotions.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“I know.” I breathe out.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“I’ll be yours if that’s what you
want.” He insists.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
I smile and place my hands on his
face. “Just kiss me.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
He snorts and then becomes serious
before leaning down to kiss me sweetly. “In all my years I have never met
someone quite like you.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">

<b>Today is the day you've all been waiting for. Eternal, Book 3 in The Vampires of Linbridge series is now available to purchase at Amazon. You can also read this book for free using Kindle Unlimited. Link is below. I hope you enjoy this next addition to Harper's story. </b></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Finding Silas wasn’t easy, but it doesn’t compare to what
happens next. Everything seems to be stacking up against the clan. Time is
running out and with every second that ticks by the risk to Harper’s life
becomes greater.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As if things couldn’t get worse, once the clan returns to
Linbridge they quickly find themselves in danger once again. Instead of
vindictive vampires to worry about, they have to fear Hunters.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
They’ve come for Ivan. His mistakes are quickly catching up
to him.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Of course, they’re not going to make it easy for the Hunters
to take Ivan away. Hiding in plain sight is their only option.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
While everything spins out of control around them, Harper
works her hardest to mend their relationships. Each of them has their own fair
share of problems. Silas isn’t the same thanks to the trauma that he’s endured,
Ivan is depressed, and Erik has the weight of Linbridge’s future on his
shoulders.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And Harper…Harper is finding it hard to face her new
reality.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
James is the only one who has the least amount of issues.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Before they can move forward, they must heal their inner
wounds. It’s not easy. Things don’t go their way, and when Harper becomes sick
it becomes even more difficult.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Their strength will be put to the test and their
relationships will grow but will it be enough? Will it keep them from
heartbreak? Will Harper be able to survive the loss of someone close?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Even James’s visions can’t predict what will happen. Nothing
is written in stone, and their choices have significant consequences. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Those choices threaten to destroy everything.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Love and a little luck are the only things that will keep
them together.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

“Okay, so now that you’ve heard
everything what do you think that Harper should do? Should she stay with me
outside of Linbridge until the threat is gone or should we stay together,
here?” Erik questions.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“I don’t think that she should go
anywhere,” Drake states first.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
He was as much a part of this clan
as anyone in this room, and I was grateful that the others had accepted him
without hesitation.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“I agree with Drake and Harper.
Every time we split up something terrible happens.” Ivan replies. “I’m not
willing to take the risk that the hunters won’t follow you two out of town.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“Ivan has a point.” James states.
“We have no idea who we can trust. They might be waiting for someone to leave
Linbridge and without all of us it puts both you and Harper into a dangerous
position.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
Erik nods and then turns his
attention towards Silas. “What do you think?”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“Honestly, I’m on your side, Erik.
I don’t like the thought of Harper leaving, but it’s obviously not safe to stay
here anymore.” Silas replies. “You heard what those men said tonight; they were
under the impression that we were vampires. They got their orders from someone,
somewhere, and I do not doubt that they will send more men.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“That’s true, but she was safer here
with all of us protecting her.” Ivan insists.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“James…?” Erik sighs as he turns
towards him for his response.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
He doesn’t say a word for a few
minutes before he finally opens his mouth to speak. Before he says a word, he
closes his mouth before standing up abruptly.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
Without warning he exits the room,
leaving the rest of us in a state of confusion.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“Is he coming back?” I whisper as I
look at Erik in question.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“I don’t know.” He breathes out.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
A few moments later James walks
back into the room with a large knife held in his hand. He walks directly
behind Silas before he stabs the knife into Silas’s shoulder.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
I scream out in pain as blood
stains my shirt.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“What the hell, James?” Silas
growls out.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“Have we all forgotten that there’s
more than one way to get to Harper?” James questions as he removes the knife
from Silas’s shoulder.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“If we split up we run the risk of
her getting hurt either way. You’ve said it yourself, Erik, we are stronger
together.” James states before turning his full attention towards me as he smirks.
“I want her to stay. She wants to stay, and I’m not about to push her away.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
Erik nods and then rubs his hand
over his face while he glances down at his feet.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
A moment later he looks at me. “I
guess you get your way this time, Sweetheart. Ivan, Drake, and James are right;
we will be better off together.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
“So, I’m staying?” I press.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;">
He nods. “Yes, and I won’t bring
this subject up again.”</div>

Becoming the rebel leader wasn’t what Nova expected to do, but fate had placed her in that very position. After being deceived by Edric, it only seemed natural to choose the side that stood against the Nokalt.<br />
Of course being the leader isn’t easy, but with Ash by her side, Nova feels as if they can do anything. And with a rebel army behind them, the possibilities are limitless.<br />
As the days go by Nova’s relationship with Ash grows stronger, but that doesn’t keep her from wanting someone else. She wants Wade. Something is pulling her to him, something that she can’t understand.<br />
When the Nokalt attack without warning, everything spins out of control. Rebels die, and Wade is left knocking at death's door.<br />
The rebels want revenge.<br />
Nova has a choice to make. She needs to prove that she’s a strong rebel leader like her brother. She makes some difficult decisions. In the end, Nova gives the rebels precisely what they want.<br />
They attack the Nokalt where they least expect it, and they hit them hard. No one dies, but the rebels manage to capture more than enough Nokalt prisoners to bargain with. With those prisoners, Nova hopes to get the rebels that the Nokalt had taken and her brother back.<br />
Unfortunately, the rebels have other ideas. They want more than equal rights. They want the Nokalt destroyed.<br />
Nova quickly finds herself in a new world of trouble that she has no control over.<br />
Edric is the only one who can save her, but he’s got a few problems of his own. The only option he has left is to bring Ethan back to Nova.<br />
That plan backfires. The rebels don’t trust Ethan, and they definitely don’t trust Nova or Ash anymore.<br />
Nova and Ethan have only one option left. They had to escape. They have to leave the rebels behind or risk dying for a cause that they no longer believe in.<br />
Getting out alive brings a whole new set of problems. Not everything is as it seems and the people closest to Nova end up being the ones who betray her the worst. Everything that happens pushes Nova farther away from the people she loves.<br />
Edric is Nova’s only hope but will he still want to save her? Will she still want him? Will their connection bring them back together or will they lose each other forever?<br />
Only fate knows what will happen next.<br />

<b>Once again today's teaser comes from Eternal, Book Three in The Vampires of Linbridge Series. I honestly cannot wait to share this story with you guys. I've been typing as much as possible to get this book written. I'm nearly halfway there!! Anyway, I really hope you guys enjoy today's teaser.</b></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
****</div>
<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Go, Ivan. Drive.” Erik pants out
as he shuts his door.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Ivan quickly drives the car down
the driveway while more bombs go off behind us.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Holy shit, Marcus had the whole
place rigged to blow.” Ivan exclaims as he glances back in the rearview mirror.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
I remain seated with my attention
out the front windshield. As much as I wanted to see Silas I also didn’t want
to see him in his deteriorated condition.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“He’s alright, Harper.” James
reassures me. “He’s just weakened.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
I nod and bite my lip while closing
my eyes to keep myself from falling apart.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
The smell of rotten flesh was heavy
in the air along with dirt and something else much worse. It was horrifying to
be honest.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
When the smell of blood hits me I
nearly lose my control.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
My stomach groans as I dig my nails
into the seat beneath me.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Just take a little, Silas.” James
instructs.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“That’s not going to be possible.”
I grit out.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Why not, he seems to be in
control.” Erik replies.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“It’s not because I can feel his
hunger. He might seem to be in control but he’s not. The vampire is in
control.” I warn.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
James curses loudly. “Damn it,
she’s right. He’s not stopping.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Erik curses next as they begin
moving around in the backseat.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Ivan glances towards me with worry
as he pulls onto the main road.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Of course that’s the moment when
everything gets worse. While Erik and James struggle to control Silas red and
blue lights begin flashing behind us while a siren rings out.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“This cannot be happening.” Ivan
groans.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“What are we going to do? We can’t
stop, not yet.” I stress.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Erik, what are we doing?” Ivan
questions tensely.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Stop the car. The last thing we
want is a high speed chase.” Erik replies.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Ivan grunts in response before
pulling the car to the side of the road. He then quickly pulls out his wallet
while I grab the papers he would need from the compartment in front of me.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
James and Erik somehow get Silas to
calm down while the police officer walks up to Ivan’s window.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“What’s the problem officer?” Ivan
asks while rolling down his window.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“I was just curious if you knew
what was going on at the Smith farm. You came from the driveway and we had
calls of smoke and loud booms coming from that area.” The officer replies.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“The smoke was coming from the
house. I don’t know what happened but when we were driving past we saw the
smoke and decided to see if we could help.” Ivan lies easily. “There wasn’t
much left of the house so we figured that we would drive back down the road to
see if we could find some sort of help.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
I grab my phone and hold it up. “My
phone wouldn’t get a signal otherwise we would have called.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
He nods and then glances towards
his car before leaning down to look into the backseat.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Is he alright?” The officer
questions as he points towards Silas’s body that was slumped over James in the
seat.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Yeah, he’s fine, just a little
drunk.” Ivan answers.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
The officer nods before pointing
towards me. “Are you alright? You have a little bit of blood on your arm.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Before I can answer he studies Ivan
closer.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Without warning he pulls his gun
from its holster on his belt before he points it at us.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Get out of the car with your hands
up.” He orders sternly.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Erik…?” Ivan breathes out.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Just do it.” Erik replies.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Ivan nods and then lifts his hands
before exiting the car. I quickly slide across the seat with my hands up. Once
I’m out I stand beside Ivan as the officer trains his gun directly on us.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">Tuesday Teaser</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today's teaser comes from Eternal the third book in The Vampires of Linbridge Series. I've been typing away like crazy to get it written. I can't wait to share this next book with you guys.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's going to be so exciting.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyway, here it is, your teaser.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's a little short but it's going to leave you wanting more. Enjoy!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
****</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Do you guys hear that?” James
questions while tilting his head to the side. “It sounds like a faint beeping
sound.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<i>‘Guys,
there’s a red light flashing in here.’</i> Silas warns within our minds.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Damn it.” James curses. “Marcus
must have set the locks with a bomb.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“We have to get him out of there
before it blows.” Ivan stresses.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
I whimper as I turn in his arms.
“This can’t be happening.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<i>‘There’s
a timer.’</i> Silas announces. <i>‘I have
less than five minutes. You guys better hurry.’</i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“We’ll get him out, Harper.” Erik
promises. “But it might be best if you and Ivan went back by the car just in
case this doesn’t go our way.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“I’m not leaving you.” I argue.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Maybe if we all work together we
can get Silas out before the timer runs out.” Ivan suggests.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Erik and James share a look before
nodding in agreement.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Fine, but the second I tell you to
leave you better listen.” Erik explains.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
I nod. “I’ll run the second that
you tell me to.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“You better.” He replies.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
With his permission Ivan and I jump
into the hole and then grab the keys that James holds out for us. We each
quickly take a lock and begin the task of unlocking each.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
I get lucky and find the right key
for the first lock.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Smiling triumphantly I move onto the next while
Ivan, Erik, and James work quickly to unlock the others.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“What are we going to do once he’s
out?” James questions as he continues to work on one of the locks.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Erik shrugs. “I honestly don’t
know.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“We’re going to have to keep him
from killing someone.” Ivan stresses.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“If I’m full then he’ll feel full.”
I insist.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“That might not work. We can only
guess that the animalistic side of Silas will be present. He’s been starved so
the vampire side will have more control. It will also make him dangerous
towards us and unpredictable.” Erik replies.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Oh…” I breathe out.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“We won’t allow anything bad to
happen to him.” Ivan promises gently.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
I nod and bite my lip as I try
another lock.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">‘The
timer is down to two minutes.’</i> Silas announces within our minds.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
I whimper softly as I try key after
key inside the lock in my hand. When none of my keys works tears fill my eyes.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
This felt hopeless. We were
struggling against time that we really didn’t have.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Giving up on that lock I try
another.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Once again none of my keys work. My
anger gets the best of me and I slam the lock against the chains as hard as I
can.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
To my surprise the lock splits in
two, freeing a set of chains.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">‘Uh,
the clock just lost ten seconds.’</i> Silas warns.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Erik, Ivan, and James curse while I
begin to cry.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Damn it.” Erik breathes out before
sharing a look with James.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
They have a silent conversation
before James releases a heavy breath while shaking his head.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Luck would have to be on our
side.” He states out loud.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Just count the remaining locks.”
Erik demands.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“What are you going to do?” I ask.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“We’re going to see how many locks
there are and how much time we would lose by breaking them. If there’s more
time on the clock than what we’ll lose then we’ll take the risk. If not…” Erik
trails off.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
He didn’t have to say the rest. It
was easy to fill in what would happen if we ran out of time.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Silas and I would die.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Once James is finished counting the
locks he and Erik share another long look before Erik sighs roughly while
glancing in my direction.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“What’s wrong?” I press.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
He shakes his head. “It’s nothing
that you need to worry about, Harper.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
I’m about to argue but Ivan steps
in front of me. He places his hands on either side of my face while gazing
sadly into my eyes.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“Come on, Harper. We need to go to
the car while Erik and James finish this.” He pushes.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
I nod and then bite my lip as he
picks me up to help me out of the hole. Once he’s out he grabs my hand to pull
me away.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
A whimper leaves my lips as I
continue to watch the hole until it’s nearly impossible to see.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">‘Silas…’</i>
I whisper into his mind while closing my eyes.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">‘Don’t
worry, we’ll be together again really soon.’</i> He promises.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
As we reach the car the sound of
metal being broken fills the air. I listen closely as the chains fall away from
Silas’s box.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Ivan nervously bites his lip while
I wrap my arms around his waist.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
Time ticks by at a snail’s pace as
we wait.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
“They’ll have enough time.” Ivan
insists.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
I wasn't so confident.</div>
