Crimson Path

“When the blood of an innocent is spilled, there’s a price to be paid and it must be paid in blood.” These are the words that keep Taylor going. After the father is labelled a traitor and executed for the death of their previous alpha, she is forced to go the run with her sister. With nowhere to go, a group of people that she begrudgingly has to trust, she sets off to find the truth and to avenge her father. No matter what it takes. All Rueben wants is his mate and a peaceful life, away from his family and pack’s constant judgement and cruelty. They expect a violent and cruel person who shows no mercy, but that is exactly who he refuses to be. In a dark twist of fate, he becomes exactly what his father and pack hoped he’d be. But it comes at a cost. Now a creature that craves blood, violence and death, his only ray of hope is the love and happiness he’ll get with his mate. But what if he and his mate have been fated to be enemies? One thirsty for revenge and the other thirsty for love, both finally meet with conflicting agendas. And a secret that will tear them both apart. After all, innocent blood was spilled... and a price needed to be paid.

The Younger They Are, The Quicker They Succumb II

When I came too, I was still in the cell, Aden and Jenna were still passed out, and my arms and legs felt like gelatin. I couldn't get them to work. And it didn't help that each breath made my chest hurt both physically and emotionally. 

Emily was gone and I didn't know where too, or what for? And i was helpless to stop it from happening. Was there anything I could possibly do? She needed air, fresh air and probably medication. As little as she was, she had gotten exposed to such high amounts of wolfsbane.

With a lot of difficulty I crawled to Aden and Jenna and tried to get them to wake up. 

"Aden. Aden, Jenna, you guys need to wake up." I called to them.

"Jenna, get up. I need help." I told to her "Both of you, get up right now." I said trying to raise my voice a little. But that hurt my throat and my ears. 

"What is it cousin? The bathrooms are where they usually are, by the far corners." mumbled Jenna 

"Jenna, Emily is gone." I yelled.
