Life’s Spiced Up with Some Werewolf Reads
After losing her parents, Paige vowed to survive for her son, Jaxon. But when her six-year-old is expelled for accidentally hurting a friend, her fragile world starts to crumble. As her husband grows distant and the town turns against them, Paige must uncover the truth behind Jaxon’s strange strength—and the secrets threatening to destroy their family.
“Callen!” Jax shouts excitedly when he spots him at the door. He runs towards him, tripping over his unfastened shoelace and landing with a heavy thud on the wooden floor against the wall. “I’m okay,” Jax declares before I have a chance to ask him. “Slow down, buddy, there’s no need to rush,” Callen says.…
“Just about to head home. Why? “How’s it going with the pretty lady?” he responds. “You’re not jealous, are you, Rem?” I tease. “Of course not. She’s a human. She’s not even in the same league as me to be any kind of competition.” “Well, apparently I’m not as charming as I thought. She about…
“Why would being a twin put her off me?” “Lots of reasons. If she is looking for a life partner to settle down and have children with, then the chance of multiples in pregnancy is higher with a twin parent. There’s also the worry she might mistake your brother for you one day and embarrass…
Paul puts a hand on the door handle, and then he sighs before turning back to face me. “Keep out of the woods at night. My wife was sure wild wolves inhabited the woods. I didn’t see myself, and I didn’t believe her, until I heard them one night. Keep that boy safe,” he says…
“No, thank you. Keep that one separate.” We arrive at the cemetery, and Jax puts the flowers on my parent’s headstone. Jaxon was only a day old when they died, but I have always made sure he knew about them. They had died in a horrific car accident whilst I was still in the hospital…
“It’s gorgeous, isn’t it?” Poppy says, coming to sit beside me on the window seat. “I love it. Thanks for this. I think this is the best idea you’ve ever had,” I say, nudging my shoulder against hers playfully. “You’re going to be okay, Paige. You were far too good for grumpy Greg anyway, and…
“Sorry,” he says quickly, shaking his head like he’s trying to clear it. “You must be new in town. I’m Callen.” “Callen?” I repeat, frowning. I must’ve misheard. This is Ryder. He’s changed, yes, broader, and more defined, but those eyes? I’d recognise them anywhere. They’re the same eyes my son has. “Yeah, Callen Harris,”…
Ryder and Remy raise a finger, indicating they want a beer too, and Parker heads inside. “Everything good at the school?” Remy asks as I take a seat on the wooden armchair beside Ryder. “Yeah, the pups did great. Regina said they’re really learning how to fit in with the other kids.” I nod. Parker…
** Paige’s POV ** The day I buried my parents, with my newborn son in my arms and my teenage sister clinging to my side, I made myself a promise: survive, no matter what it takes. “I’m sorry, Paige, but there’s nothing I can do. Jaxon has caused another child to require hospital treatment. Following…
I wrap a towel around myself and rush into the bedroom to call the only person I can rely on. My sister, Poppy. She recently moved away to attend university. She is studying to become a vet, and I couldn’t be prouder of her. Poppy answers on the first ring, and she listens while I…
