Daylight breaking through the tree canopy teased Jimmy out of a solid sleep. Blinking, he forced out the grogginess as the world came into focus. The room was unfamiliar, but the man in Jimmy’s arms was not. Blankets up to his nose, Sawyer slept like the dead, not even registering Jimmy’s movements. He hadn’t recalled Sawyer dozing so soundly since the night of Irwin’s attack. Jimmy drew the covers down, exposing Sawyer’s shoulder. Pink and freshly healed, a bite scar left a neat ring in th

When Jimmy's condition stabilized, Maddie's gaze flitted to the ceiling, a child-like joy on her face. Sawyer knew this woman was his mother, but her behavior made her practically a stranger. In a matter of minutes, she'd gone from ruthless avenger, to focused elder, to flower child. Her eyes retained their wolfen amber, and the rest of her appearance continued to be youthful and pristine. “Mom?” Maddie's every motion floated, reactions delayed a touch. Her focus drifted as if mildly d

Got my first shot this morning. I guess that means I don't have to respond for four weeks?

Had Sawyer grown up a religious man, he’d pray to have his night vision stricken and block the sight of the hellish carnage strewn across his mother’s backyard. Sweat rolled over his injured body, soaking his clothing as he stepped carefully, avoiding the fresh corpses. He’d never seen a dead person up close before, and now there were so many, he wished he could forget the horrors he’d seen. The smell… he worried it would be tattooed inside his nostrils forever. His and his family’s surviva

Good to hear!
-
I don't want to be part of the clean up crew on this one.
-
Danners pretty much answered this one. More is on the way. We're not done yet.
-
this is pretty damn close to what I had in mind. Instinctive like this would function greatly off of intent. So far, only ranks of delta wolves have been swayed by the howl. Jada and Sawyer aren't wolves yet, so being rabid (or potential rabids) would affect them differently.

I'm hoping to touch on these things and answer a few hanging threads

we're not done yet.

There's still more to come so we can see where our cast will go next. It's been hard lately not to reply to comments, but I risked giving spoilers so I had to hold back for the last few weeks. It's nice to be back.
-
There's still time for explanations and tying up loose ends.
-
thank you for reading!
-
writing this made for a crazy week. I'll be glad to get things a little more back to normal.
-
thank you! It was a huge effort to get here.
-
I'm not even dignifying that with a remark.
-
The casting couch is my job. Get your own for the CJverse
-
Me too!!
-
coordinating all the details took a serious effort. By the time I finished, I was extremely exhausted.

Panes of glass exploded, slicing Jimmy's skin as he and Fergus burst through the window, unhindered, into the December night sky. Catching the light from behind, the crystal-like shards pirouetted, weightless and sparkling. Time slowed mid-air. Unhappy of their attempt to evade its grasp, gravity cancelled their freefall and dragged them to the earth below. Sharing his wolf's consuming rage, Jimmy failed to manage the impact, crash landing with equal force as Fergus. Clods of soil mixed in the d

Or none of you... 😄

You all have no idea how hard it is to stay quiet. If I answer one question and not another, I could give credibility to the various theories rolling around, so I’m gonna sit back with my popcorn and watch you all hash it out. see ya Wednesday! 😄

“Stay inside!” Jimmy shouted as he charged out the back door. Sawyer’s heart jumped into his throat, knowing what that likely meant. Danger stirred the dark presence inside him. He made to follow, but Jada stood, and grabbed his sleeve with her only good hand. “What just happened?” Jada asked. She’d been scarfing down her second sandwich and had already put a dent in the leftover mac and cheese. Some color had returned to her face, but arriving at healthy would take longer than they ha

Keep discussing! As you can imagine, I can't comment much at this point, so pardon my lack of participation, but don't let that stop you! See you next Wednesday!

Grinning like a dope while he drove may have made Jimmy look like a fool, but he didn’t care. He and his wolf in absolute agreement was a rare event, and Jimmy intended to enjoy it while he could. Sawyer loved him. Accidental blurting or not, he would take it as proof and let it ease his doubts. Their relationship, for all its timid pacing, had been on a good path before the mauling pushed everything under a spotlight. Sawyer’s scent could still drive Jimmy to his knees, but he worried
