Another captivating chapter, Shana. Your amazing ability to weave in and out of scenes is true talent.
Now that the Breedline finally has Tessa's location, I fret something is going to delay her rescue.
It also looks grim for Mia ad Sebastian had managed to capture her and his son. Looking forward to your next post.

I loved the photo and still marvel at how you manage to do the "blending" of wolf and human in the picture. I've seen some other "blend" such as headshot of a person above a city's skyline but yours are unique.
The story, as usual, was brilliant, complicated, intriguing, and full of action. You have some fabulous shock tactics which don't allow the reader time to take a breath for a single moment. Edge of seat!
Suggestions below, and I hope they're helpful.
The decisions they were faced with right now was some place between right and wrong. ~ Left as it is, the sentence would be grammatically incorrect (decisions being plural, "was" singular). The best I suggest is to use a verb instead of "was", e.g.
The decisions they were faced with right now STRADDLED some place between right and wrong.
When it came down to saving his precious family from the monster like Sebastian Crow ~ "the monster like SC..." You need to delete "like" or turn "the" into "a"
"If you try to put up a fight, I'll shoot you right in front of the baby," a deep, cold voice demanded Mia didn't recognize ~ >a deep, cold voice Mia didn't recognize demanded.< You could also add "that Mia didn't recognize", but the "that" is actually unnecessary.
Ever fondly,
Aki

Thank you my dear friend :)
Your kind words and thoughtful suggestions are fantastic. Always here to learn and you are a big help. Thanks for keeping up with my story. I know it's hard to find time in our busy day to keep up with FanStory, but I do appreciate you.
Your fan,
Shana :)
Comment from Samilla
Your plot is engaging, however very wordy (for me). Some of the passages you write out should be changed to "show, don't tell". Readers appreciate not being stuffed with the same idea. For instance, when you write about emotions....let them tell it, rather than explaining their feelings.
That being said, your dialogue is engaging and believable. For myself, I have trouble with too many characters being introduced at one time. What is the purpose? Who is your protagonist?
You have done a lot of work on your story and setting, which always makes a different world seem plausible.
Happy Writing!

Wow, what a terrific ending to whet the appetite of the reader Shana. A fabulous ending to this episode. I wonder if Steven had anything to do with it. There's no doubt the members of the covenant are angry, so they decide that blood must be spilt. Poor little Arius, taken from a very anxious and angry Mia. Well done, dear friend Shana, outstanding episode. Well done, blessings, Roy
Typo : a deep, cold voice (that) Mia didn't recognise.

I so happy to hear you enjoyed this chapter. I'm afraid others did not so well. You definitely brought the shine back into my day. Thanks for everything you do. It means a lot to me.
Always your fan,
Shana :)

Yours is a terrific well told story, with a little pinch of everything to please readers. Faithful family people, with a great, tight, set of principals to co-exist. Good characters, wonderfully evil antagonists, great synopsis, and a spectacular plot, well dine

Thank you! That speaks volumes :)

The universe you have created in this piece is admirable. My only comment would be to show, don't tell. I would love to have more insight into the characters' inner dialogue.
