17 year old Skylar Cross had plans. Once her brother Emmett and her graduated high school, they were going to run away from their pack. Their plan is to run an automotive shop they had slowing been building over the years. Their father, Alpha of the Silver Mountain pack, was a cruel leader and an even crueler father. Skylar was the youngest of the four siblings and regarded as a back-up for her sister, just as her brother was a backup for their eldest brother. When she finds out her father is going to sell her to another Alpha, she speeds up her escape plan. Leaving her pack behind before she graduates, Skylar starts a new life, running the shop alone. However, it doesn’t quite go as planned when the Alpha of the local pack she’s living next to takes an interest in her. Skylar, who can’t see herself in another pack, let alone near another Alpha, has to navigate this new relationship that’s been thrust upon her. Between long lost family, an overprotective retired Alpha, his son, and dodging mate bonds, all she wants to do is focus on her dream she’s worked so hard to build. Not to mention, her father is on the hunt for her to bring her to the pack she’s been sold to.

Shift Chapter 109
Sky continued to apologize over and over between her own sobs. Pulling up my knees, I curled up in the corner of the couch. I tried to take a breath but it didn’t help. My head was shaking, trying to convey that she didn’t need to apologize. She couldn’t see me though. I knew she couldn’t. I felt her absence like a hole in my soul.“Em…don’t cry…please…”I chuckled through my tears. “It’s a little late for that.”She also tittered and goddess it was good to hear. “I guess it is. How…how are you? Are you doing okay? Father isn’t…they haven’t…”Bowing my head down, I sighed. “I’m fine, Sky. Really. I’m not making waves so I’m not getting splashed.”A huge sigh was let out on her side. “I was so worried. You have no idea. I couldn’t…I couldn’t imagine what they would do to

My mouth opened and then closed. It took me a minute to process that Kelsie was being serious.“He’s mated.”She scoffed. “To that she-wolf? Please. They are all but estranged.”“He has kids. Like…my nephew and niece.”Kelsie shrugged. “So he didn’t wait. It’s fine. I’m not either.”My eyes narrowed. “What do you mean ‘wait’?”Kelsie looked at me with a look that I had seen in Sky when she talked about Justin. “I know he’s my mate, Emmett. I don’t know how. I just do. I can feel it. It sucks. I wish I could fucking ignore it. I wish I could rip it out of my heart and body. I can’t though. I can just watch the train wreck that’s happening.”“I’m sorry.” It was so immediately out of my mouth that it shocked us both.“I don’t…I don’t

Her mewing was pretty cute. I held Kelsie up, her legs wrapped around my waist and her back was against the door to the girls’ bathroom door. I’d locked it, but I made sure I pushed her up against it in case anyone tried to force their way in. One hand was under her, holding her ass while the other one was tangled up in her perfect hair. My lips were moving against hers, my tongue exploring while she sucked on it.I let my hand slip from her ass to under her shirt and under her sports bra. It was apparent that she didn’t wear the fancy wire ones that pushed up her breasts up like most of the girly girls. Getting a real feel, I realized why. She was stacked. I mean, I could barely fit the thing in my hand. The sports bra flattened and made it look like she was normal. This was not normal. This was heavenly.Shaking my head, I finally unlocked our lips. Her face was completely flushed, red instead of the light pink that she’d turned during class.

I shut the door quietly to Dad’s office and sighed. Sometimes it was just too much to deal with him. He was your atypical Alpha. All growly and power hungry. Sky’s leaving hurt his ego more than anything. Dad didn’t actually give a shit about her. He went through my phone but, per usual, there was nothing. Only a text message from Carl saying that the part I’d order was confirmed coming in on Tuesday. This made me smile. I’d finally get to talk to my sister.“Everything okay?”I nearly jumped out of my skin as I hit the bottom step. Covering my heart, I growled at Justin. He was leaning against the wall next to the stairs with his arms crossed over his chest. Rolling my eyes, I shook my head.“Can you not lurk around corners? I swear to the goddess one of these days you’re going to end up with a knife in your neck. By accident.”Walking into the kitchen, I pulled open the fridge and look

My eyes went wide and I turned to him. “What? How? Is she okay? Is she eating?”Carl laughed. “According to her, she is doing good and she is eating.”Scoffing, I crossed my arms over my chest. “Did you ask her specifically what she was eating? ‘Cause she could be lying.”“Not specifically but she was planning on making food while I was on the phone with her. So that means she was at least used to it.”I let out the breath that I was holding, my shoulders sagging. “She’s good though. She’s okay and safe.”Patting me on the head and ruffling my hair, Carl gave me a sad smile. “Yeah, Em. She is.”“Did she say…did she ask…?” I didn’t know how to come off sounding like a spoiled asshole to see if she even asked about me.“Emmett, of course she asked about Justin.”My fist slammed into his st

*** Emmett’s POV ***All this was so damn boring. Around me, the group I hung out with were chatting about a hodgepodge of gossip. Ranging from who got a failing grade on the last test to who found their fated mate that week. All of it was just background noise.We were sitting in the cafeteria during lunch and from the table we had, there was a good view of the entire room. I let my eyes roam over the whole senior class gathered until I stopped at Sky’s friends. The table they used look so empty now. Her presence was so big, even if she was being quiet, that left a void with her gone.“Emmett, why don’t you skip your next class? I heard they suspended Miss Emmy.” Diana was shameless and no matter how much padding she stuffed in her bra, it would never make her breasts look appealing to me. “We could fool around in the locker room.”“Sorry. I have to actually go to class. If I don’t, I&rs

Raine and I laid down together, our paws dipping into the pool. We decided not to go back, at least not yet. It felt good to be in wolf form. It was like we could finally breathe. We’d been holding our breath under water for so many years and now we broke through, able to take a true full breath. Kat’s look of terror also stopped us from heading back to the shop.For a long time, we were just quiet; our mind empty as we took in the forest around us. None of the creatures in the area bothered us. Once or twice a deer would make its way to drink from the pool but none of them seemed put off by our presence. That was until Raine growled at the fawn who came sniffling a little too close. They took off together after that.Normally, the forest was a quiet sanctuary for me. From the leaves blowing in the trees, to the crickets in the grass, to the sound of the river, it was anything but quiet. Instead, it was able to fill the silence the both of us were avoiding.

My arm was slung over Kat’s shoulders as she helped me down the stairs. I was limping, my right leg unable to take any weight. She was lucky I wasn’t the size of Ethan. This never would have worked. We reached the bottom floor and I snickered.“I’m not sure I would be laughing right now.” Kat eyed me worriedly.I shook my head. “I was just thinking that Ethan might have to go through another shift. He’s really getting the short end of the stick in this whole mate bond thing.”She snorted and shook her head. “Let’s not go there right now. We need to get you out.”Opening the front door of the shop, we had a couple different options. We could cross the main road and go into the National Forest. The issue with that was there were camping spots littered all over the place and if I ended up losing myself, I would absolutely scare the shit out of some campers.Behind the shop was more tree

Kat came into the kitchen yawning as I was moving around the kitchen, still talking to Carl. We basically went through the bullet points of what had been going on with me. I was selecting things to leave out. Explaining about how there was about a 90 percent chance that I had two mates and one of them was an Alpha of the pack that was only a couple hours away was not one of them.I did tell him about meeting Kat and how we were commuting back and forth, hanging out when we could. Also, that she was actually really nice and I didn’t regret reaching out. She sat down and thanked me quietly as I placed a coffee in front of her.“You’re telling me, you actually managed to get that thing off?”“Yeah. I wish I could help Em with his but it’s not for the faint of heart. It was a bad time and that’s me saying it. I don’t think I would want Em to go through that. Hopefully, Caleb will take over soon.”Carl humm
