Chapter Twelve

GALEN

I woke naked and sore, covered in crusted blood, and back in a cage inside the kennel. Red flakes cracked and peeled off my skin, coating the concrete floor around me.

It was still dark. The sun’s restorative rays hadn’t penetrated the cracks and crevices in the kennel that had been overlooked in its construction. Wind whistled through the gaps invisible to the naked eye.

The sled dogs slept through the previous night’s activities. There were times that I envied wolves with only one form. Ruled by their basic needs and survival instincts. They weren’t bound by greed, or hate or evil and selfish desires for power.

They hunted, slept and reproduced. They survived.

Talia’s wolf was a survivor too. She stood up for herself, for us and fought like hell against Bjorn and the Deofol pack.

I was terrified the alpha would kill her for her disobedience. He reminded me of the Northwood alpha - irrational and unforgiving. Except Bjorn was worse.

Much worse.

Alaska and the arctic circle proved to be a wild, harsh frontier, and the wolves who live there adapted to it. They were as hard and cold as the ice their town was built on.

And they were evil.

They knew the demons were attacking our packs, our towns, that innocent people were dying and they didn’t care. They worshiped as demon wolf god, basked in his benevolence while the rest of the world burned.

No wonder Talia’s mother ran away and never looked back.

I couldn’t blame her for that and would have done the same if I were in her shoes, but I wished she’d had the chance to prepare her daughter for what was to come. I wished Talia’s father hadn’t been so utterly destroyed by her mother’s death that he couldn’t talk about who she really was.

Someone should have told her the monsters were real and that they were coming for her.

Talia’s mother was the Bone Clan’s lost princess and Talia was their new heir. A role she couldn’t refuse, outrun or escape. The demon wolf god wanted her for himself in this world or the next.

There was just one problem.

He couldn’t have her. Talia was mine. I fell in love with her the moment I saw her walking through town. The day she’d been cast out of the Northwood pack. The same day she was supposed to move to Wichita and never look back.

How I’d never seen her before that day when she worked at the cafe was a mystery to me, but the threads of our fate had been entwined. We were orbiting around each other, waiting for the right cosmic moment to collide.

Talia was my Big Bang Theory.

She didn’t just create a new world, she created a new universe for me and she was at the center of it. My sun. With her golden hair and sapphire eyes.

I didn’t need a mark to tell me she was my mate. It was fact as far as I was concerned. I knew she was meant for me, felt it in my heart and my soul.
