If I could put a love and sad on this together I would. ❤️ 😢 You are kicking my ass. Thanks for “sad-i-pillar”, new one for the emotional arsenal.

This chapter really hit me hard. After being my mother’s primary caretaker for three years in her battle with Parkinson’s disease, she died at the start of Thanksgiving week last year. Life was really hard taking care of her and balancing my responsibilities as a single parent….it’s been harder still going through grief, adjusting to my new normal and reconnecting with my son the way I couldn’t when being a caretaker dominated my life. Honestly, I got to the part where Kyan told Noah (my son’s name, btw) “You should only ever feel as sad as you feel.” and I broke down and had a good cry. I’m going to have to finish this another time. Grief has seasons and serendipity is real; you publishing this right now blows me away…. I think though the grief is different, this story is going to kick my emotional ass to read because my Noah and I are moving on & I know with your HEA heart @Mrsgnomie this story will parallel the light waiting at the end of the tunnel we see. I guess this is my very long winded way of saying thank you, lol, this story will be cathartic for me. 💔💝

Oh my gosh. 💔 What a terrible situation for this family but am glad to see a new story from you @Mrsgnomie. Will be interesting to see the recovery from this loss as a family & Kyan finding love again….Perry too.

Crazy dogs/crazy kids….there’s not much difference, is there? Lol. I’m sure (hoping?) it was welcome chaos, 🤞 bet that rest was especially sweet, 😊. Thanks for staying up to read my comment. 🙏 🍻

One of your most satisfying HEA’s. 💝 Thanks, Gary. 🙏 🎁 🍻

I thought I read all of your stories by now….the title looked familiar but when I got to the end, I saw no reaction and no comment. () Seems like I’m supposed to read this now….today. I’ve shared with you what I’ve been going through in dealing with the death of my mom these past six-ish months and while this story is about loss of the romantic kind, it’s also a story about hope and new beginnings and starting over, things that I’m doing now for different reasons-among that too is also the hope of starting over romantically. While I have been blessed with the support of incredible friendships during this time, I’ve faced mourning & family drama without that special, right someone by my side & I miss that….this story reminds me that even looking at 50 in three and a half months, there’s still time for me to find him. 🙏 🎁 It’s been my belief that your stories are the gifts that keep on giving….my serendipitous stumble onto this new story that I thought was an old one is proof of that. I’m off to part two now….more breadcrumbs on the path to my new normal. Bless you always, Gary. Cheers 🍻

Thanks so much for the invite, but that Korner seems quite crowded & I don’t do crowds. 😉 I’m a Korner of one, with great appreciation for the antics of the masses. 💐

I think being teacher’s pet, you might get by with using the “T” word, lol.

@Danilo Syrtis, just don’t call them a:

@84Mags, they soooo love each other.

I’m going to miss the “Heckle and Jeckle” show as much as the insightful comments. The “Heckle and Jeckle” meme I picked didn’t take, so:

That would be wonderful….Corbin’s got a great soul.

I believe animals and babies can see through the veil and that it thickens for most people as they get older….most; some will always retain sensitivities of “otherness” and some can see it plain as day.

I quite like getting the shaft

“I think Sebastian is going to contact his IT guru, Lex.” HI LEX❣️❣️❣️❣️ I was going to ask if Lex could detect the supernatural in someone’s aura-lo & behold, you answered before I could, lol. ❤️ that the whole pack is learning sign language. I took up ASL in high school and didn’t keep up with it, I’d be fluent by now if I did; I think it’s a beautiful form of expression. Quite the cliffhanger….I like it and look forward to the cure and battle to come….it was heartening to see life back in Caleb. Nicely played.

Okay folks, this is it. Whether you like it or not, it's the last chapter in this story. I hope you've enjoyed the ride! Wow. Even though I knew it was coming, it snuck up on me anyway, lol. Going to read now….and thank you. 🎁

I think the human equivalent is like a “come to Jesus” moment where they are made to see the error of their ways (probably by any means necessary, i.e. a verbal or physical ass kicking), lol.

This chapter put a lot of meat on the bones of their plan to defeat Huntington. Speaking of meat…. “Currently, there was an unofficial stand-off between Mama and Sandi. Each woman tried to one-up the other in the cooking department. It was good-natured, or at least Tyler thought so.” With so much going on, I guess the guys could be excused for neglecting to tell their family about Elijah’s shapeshifter ability-to anyone but Mama Williamson, lol: “Mama cuffed him and Elijah on the back of their heads. Austin and Ashton’s reactions were instantaneous. Their wolves growled at the threat to their mates. “Don’t you growl at me!” Mama reprimanded. The twins immediately backed down, eyes wide, ears pinned back in surprise. Tyler saw Papi and Declan trying not to laugh, turning their heads to avoid getting caught. He suspected the rest of their table was in a similar state.” The “mother’s tone” is universal and any mother’s child everywhere knows to “bare their neck” when it is spoken, lol. What followed after her acceptance of Elijah’s skill was a true example of mother’s intuition: “It was you!" She poked Elijah on the shoulder. "You pretended to be Tyler the summer you were sixteen and supposedly went to visit your mother’s cousin for a long weekend.” Mother’s intuition=the greatest bullshit meter in the world, lol. “There was a hardness in her eyes that he recognized. The same hardness he saw reflected in Ashton’s eyes when his brother was caught in a memory. It was the same hardness he knew his own eyes gave off when he dwelled on the past. Some things were meant to break you. When they didn’t, remnants remained to remind you of what you went through. “ Strength borne of adversity is the strongest there is….this passage moved me the most in the whole chapter. It reminded me about what people say about scars: "Never be ashamed of a scar. It simply means you were stronger than whatever tried to hurt you." It’ll be interesting to see who blinks first in this cat and mouse game between Sebastian & Co. versus Huntington-animals (and people) are most dangerous when cornered.

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR PROMOTION!!!!

Lol!! I was surprised by their easy acceptance of the situation too, but it’s already been established how close knit the family is, with Kaya (as well as Tyler and Elijah) involved in potential danger, I think the safer choice was to get the herd out of the “line of fire”, (when in actuality being with the Montana pack might bring them directly into it 🤔) I think our Mega Alpha may also have had something to do with it….Sebastian seems to be one of those people who command instant acquiescence, like listen first and ask questions later, lol. Guess it’s par for the course with his position.

Wow, say what you really feel, lol. Me too!!!! All dem babies ain’t get here because she’s “religious”. 😉

Being the bad pussy he is, Huntington also had no way of knowing if the shifter revelation would have been well received by the Williamson’s-I think he hoped for a lot of upset & upheaval for distraction and diversion.

Or the car? Or were they both:

It’s about to be on and poppin’!! To be a fly on the wall of the plane to watch the Williamson’s reactions when the mate convo went down. (fly on the wall gifs & memes are yucky, lol) Alpha traits aren’t sex specific, we now have three strong willed women in the pack- (Sandi, Becca & Mama Williamson) I wonder how the energy of each will work around each other-will there be natural deferment or boundary issues? Next stop: Ass Kickingville.
