Skylar Choruses of ‘Sky,’ ‘Skylar,’ and my various nicknames are being shouted behind me, but they don’t follow. I don’t know if they are respecting what I want or if Sierra is keeping them back, but I just need to walk away and cool off. I walk into my back door and through the kitchen straight t
When we got to our destination, I was thrown to the ground. I heard whispering, which means these kids didn’t have their wolves yet to mindlink. The Alpha, Beta, Gamma and Delta had the power to push a mindlink through to anyone, wolf or not. It made giving directions in a crisis easier. But, un

Anything they say now to try and make me feel better is strictly to ease their own conscience. I didn’t trust them to take care of me in a real moment of need when they didn’t take care of me in day to day things. I know my place, have always known it, and now they are blurring those lines making it
Fine, go to him. I take a deep breath and sigh. Once again their needs are greater than mine. We stand up slowly and walk over to him, rubbing up against his leg. I can feel his whole body shaking in anger. We just continue to circle him and nuzzle his legs. We come around to the front of him an
