Goodbye For Now
It was hard saying goodbye to everyone the next day, but everyone was leaving. It would be weird, once they were gone, to have the pack back to just me and my wolves, at least for a few months. The mages that would be joining us would be back soon. We still had to figure that out, and I’d need to add on to the house. Now that I’d built Sam and Starla’s house--which was no longer Sam and Starla’s house--and I had built the entire school, I felt confident enough to make the changes that needed to be made to Grandma’s house so that it would accommodate all of us.
I just needed to wait until all of my power was restored and until I was fairly confident we weren’t abou to get attacked. With my luck, I’d pass out from building onto the house and then some new monster would rear its ugly head.
“Goodbye, Harlow! I’l

School. The place I both dreaded going back to and was happy to see. I walked through the doors of Whispering Hollow High School feeling like I hadn’t been there for ages. The students were even staring at me like they wondered where I’d been. I knew I was way behind and probably in danger of having missed too many days that semester. The same could be said for all of my packmates who had been out fighting evil and hiding from dragons for just as many days as I had been. So we all walked together to the principal’s office to find out if Mr. Short was going to require us to do anything other than to make up our missing work. “Well, well, well,” he began folding his arms and looking at me like he was my father and he’d caught me sneaking in past curfew. “If it isn’t Harlow Nightingale.” “Hello, Mr. Short, sir,” I said. “We are back.”
Mage of Wolves Give me a Break
As happy as I was to be able to go back to school, I was just as happy to be home after school was out. Brice and I had gotten quite a bit done on the play once he stopped fooling around, and he wanted to work on it more, but I was done with school work. I wanted to go into my room and collapse on my bed and not think about anyone or anything.Of course, that was too much to ask for. The second I walked in the door, Sam wanted to talk to me. Normally, I wouldn’t mind that one bit, but I could tell by the look on his face, this wasn’t one of the things I was going to enjoy talking about with him.He pulled me into the living room as I was trying to take my backpack off. It dropped to the floor. I pulled my hand away and asked, “Can you give me a few seconds?”“All right, but this is real
Mage of Wolves Crazy Dream; Crazier Reality
I didn’t think I’d sleep that night. I was exhausted, but then I usually am. I figured I’d stay awake thinking about what the pack was finding out on their trip to the forest over by the river. Would they be able to figure out what was going on with the pink trees without me, or would this require my mage powers to solve?I only spent a few minutes staring at the ceiling before I fell into a deep sleep. I knew I was either dreaming or had fallen into another realm because I was in a forest where all of the colors were messed up, much like the one Fionna and Cody had made, but this one was different. The trees weren’t brown and green like they were supposed to be, but the trunks weren’t pink either. They were all different colors. It was like a rainbow forest. And it was beautiful.I wandered aro
Mage of Wolves Little Shifter Gone
“Damn it, Brice! Just tell me who it is!” I shouted, throwing myself out of bed. I started to pull clothes out of my drawer like I was a normal person who needed to change clothes before I went to help, but then I remembered I’d have to change my shape to get there quickly anyway, and once I landed I could just change my clothes into anything I wanted to wear--like a long silver ball gown. “It’s Mel,” he said. “It was crazy! It all happened so fast.” “Wait--Melanie fell into a portal in the pink tree? By herself?” He nodded. “We were going to go after her, but we couldn’t. Not all of us, of course, but Alec and me. And Ben. But the tree wouldn’t open up for us. So we are hoping with your magic you might be able to get it to cooperate. Maybe you can get her back without anyone having to go in there after her.”
Mage of Wolves I'd Like to Phone a Friend
I had no idea what to do about Melanie’s disappearance or the new revelation that there are apparently such a thing as wood nymphs, which I thought perhaps someone should’ve told me about prior to me being introduced to one. Standing there in the middle of the forest, in the middle of the night, on a school night, mind you, I was growing more and more frustrated by the second.I finally decided I needed help with this, so I materialized a cell phone and called Maggie. She was the only person I could think of who might be able to help me, and I figured it was the middle of the day in France so at least I wouldn’t be waking her up.She answered pretty quickly, probably recognizing that it had to be urgent for me to be calling her at that time. “Hi, Harlow. What’s going on?” she asked, a tinge of nervousness in her voice.
Mage of Wolves Harold
“Harlow, please be careful,” Sam said. “You are all emotionally worked up, and I am afraid you’re going to end up getting sucked into that tree the same way Mel did, and then what are we going to do?”I stepped away from him, rolling my eyes as I went. I just needed some space. “It’s fine, Sam. It’ll be fine. Maggie gave me some things to try, so I’m going to try them.”He shook his head but left me alone. I surveyed the rest of my pack. They were all patiently waiting, in their human forms, which told me that they were in support of me doing what I could to try and open this portal back up.I had never tried to change the color of something this way before. I figured it couldn’t be too difficult if Francis could do it, so I concentrated on the trunk
Mage of Wolves Threads
The portal was closed, but I didn’t know for how long. Part of me wanted the monster to just come right on through now so that I could deal with him and have it over with. But I knew I wasn’t anywhere near full strength at the moment, so I wouldn’t be able to defeat him that easily, and there was no one else around with the power to help stop him. Except for Francis and the hell if I was ever going to ask her to help me with anything ever again.“Melanie, how are you?” Joshua was asking as he sat on the ground with her, his arms around her.“I’m okay,” she said. “Just scared. And my leg is sore.” She was shaking, her hair messy, and sweat at her hairline. She was also covered in some sort of a light dusting of green powder. The green was the same pukish color as the wood nymph.
Mage of Wolves Worried
Keeping my eyes open at school the next day was almost as impossible as it had been to keep them open while Sam was taking me home. I was guzzling coffee by the gallon, and going to the bathroom every half an hour or so, which was annoying. At least none of my teachers refused to let me go.During Ms. Piper’s drama class, Brice and I struggled to work on our reenactment of the dragon fight and the rescuing of our friends from the evil mages. Brice wasn’t tired like me. Wolf shifters could survive on just a couple of hours a night. I was envious of him for that at the moment. But he was distracted. I’m pretty sure Brice should’ve been diagnosed with ADHD a long time ago. Maybe he wouldn’t still be in school a year after he should’ve graduated if he’d gotten some help focusing when he was younger. He’s super smart, but when he’s in a mood like this,
