Shadow Kissed (Magic Side: Wolf Bound 4) - Page 92

Okay? Joy swelled in my chest. The nightmare of being broken would be over soon.

My shard shrugged. Hell, I’m not going to miss out on all the fun with Jaxson if it’s as good as you say it is. And seriously, I’m not going to leave our friends and family in danger. Would you?

Of course not. We were the same.

She gave me a wolf grin. And why pass up a great opportunity to get killed again by a god? I’ve already died once. It’s only deeply traumatizing.

I dipped my head. Thank you.

She turned to look me in the eyes. But let me run with Mom one last time.

My stomach twisted. I needed that as much as she did, if not more so. Can you take me to her?

With a decisive shake of her fur, my shard headed back toward the waiting pack, and I followed.

Jaxson approached cautiously with an expectant look, and I gave him a nod. Success.

My shard eyed him with an appreciative, if slightly apprehensive look.

As we neared the pack, the ghost wolf alpha stepped forward. You have chosen to rejoin the land of the living.

Yes,my shard replied.

He bowed his head. I have given my word. You may go.

A great weight slid off my shoulders. He’d been so cold, I was terrified he would still try to stop her.

It was really happening. I was going to be whole. Head spinning with elation, I advanced to stand beside my shard. How do we…reunite ourselves?

The alpha’s reply sent low reverberations through my body. Run together and become as one.

My heart began hammering. May we run with the pack?

The ghost wolf alpha’s eyes turned hard. One day, but not today. You have made your choice, and now you must leave my lands. Your place is not with the dead, but with the living.

My stomach knotted, and my shard whined in protest. As if in response to the sound, a silver wolf darted down the hill.

I knew her instantly from her scent, even though I’d never seen her like this: my mom.
