Thank you, Chris. It seemed like a good place to end things.

Sorry to disappoint, but even in a world with Ethan and his gifts, death is irreversible. I thought about dragging out Levi's death a little longer, but then it just becomes gratuitous.

Thank you, Gee.

It's fun for me to see that reaction from people. His introduction was as a throw away character, much like Chris. A bully to be put in his place and tossed aside. Then I came to like him.

Love this

Thank you, JT. I already have one in the works, so we'll see how well my characters talk to me. If they behave, it will come sooner rather than later.

What? You think this is the Easter special about some guy locked away in a cave for three days? I write lycan stories, not vampire fiction. 😈

The stunned membership sat in silence. A large contingent of hunters moved to protect Dorian’s family, especially his nieces and nephews. Their signature rifles were unshouldered and held at the ready; one aimed at Levi’s head. Aiden’s eyes glowed red as Ethan’s again shifted between red and blue, causing a purple hue that startled his mate. “Why is it guys like you can’t resist the evil villain monologue when you’re standing over your victim? You always think you’re going to get away with y

It's always a pleasure to know readers enjoy it more than once. I know there will always be some errors in the story. After the major edit job that was completed last year, I've put Running to bed as far as making further changes. That is Caleb's forest as far as he's concerned. If you want to go there, you have to behave.

And that makes me all kinds of happy.

All they would really care about is that a challenge was issued and accepted. How that came about would be irreverent. Beyond that, all the people from the losing pack would need to be accepted by the winner, with the exception of wolves to willingly opted not to join. Follow the basic paperwork so everyone knows what's going on and don't try to sell off people and your good.

Stop teasing my readers. You know the story ended with "fades to black." lol

Okay, you and Centex need to stop fighting over the silver dildo.

Thank you Quixo.

I guess the wolves need to take up a new form of polo.

Now that's a response that only my favorite Cen Tex Hairy Sub could come up with. ❤️

Thank you, Centex. If my boy sees comments like this he may not say "Yes, Sir," or "Yes, Alpha," as often.

Levi was actually a fun character to write.

Thanks, Chris. Damn my readers are all succumbing to blood lust. I love it.

Snowflakes, tears falling as ice crystals, that is very genuine for Ethan.

Once Dorian knew of the McKinney families actions as Levi said there was no point in keeping him alive. He would have presented a problem for the family since they’d lost control of him. With how powerful they were, most if not all the wolves would reluctantly or otherwise follow out of caution. The pack members have their livelihood to consider and the McKinney’s ultimately were their employer. As Dorian said, the family played the long game. They most likely had contingency plans if the alpha became aware of what was happening. Levi underestimated Dorian’s intelligence and his ability to strategize beyond the short term. He also failed to find the cameras in his hour long search of the office before calling for help. Remember, when the call was made for anyone wishing to lead to step forward, no one stood. Even the leader of the Hunters didn’t make a move to challenge Levi. In the hierarchy of wolves, the lower ranks tend to follow like sheep. Levi, though not well liked, was viewed as an accomplished leader. Through all the expansion of the pack, no one challenged Dorian for leadership to put a stop to the territorial ambitions even though he made plenty of enemies. No Lycan Council laws were broken, except possibly for Dorian’s murder. Levi used underhanded tactics to get Dorian to challenge others, but they were all legal fights that resulted in both packs going to the victor. As Levi pointed out when the Shasta Pack was taken, he’d submitted the merger paperwork with the Council as soon as their alpha was dead. If other alphas at the Congress found out about the poisoning, there’s no way of knowing how they would react. If Pit River willingly accepted Levi as their alpha, it’s an internal decision that would not affect the Council or Congress. The most someone could do is challenge him for leadership and odds are, the family would have some plan for winning. Yes, it was predictable that Levi was the bad guy. I did consider changes to that, but was happy with the story as the way it unfolded in my mind. Dorian’s trust in his “friend” while misplaced was based on how he perceived the world around him. It was both emotional and physical. For Levi’s part, he could be a good friend when it suited him and he did have feelings for Dorian in his own way. But he didn’t have the physical strength to fight guys like Dorian. A wealthy runt with a strong mind who knew how I find protection until he became powerful enough that his strength didn’t need to be physical. Dorian going outside the pack to Ethan and Aiden, instead of finding someone within to confide in was based on the McKinney’s hold on everyone. No matter how loyal he thought someone might be, there was a chance, a risk the family could have their claws embedded in that person. For Dorian that meant enlisting the assistance of the men who’d helped put things right at the Council.

I'm sure you're suggestion would have been just as enjoyable to watch.

Don't make me skip a week. I'm starting to think my readers like the guy they thought was an asshole in RWTP. Hmm... Cover him in silver. I like that.

😈 So in other words, let the fur fly.

I have some vicious readers. I do enjoy that.
