If a tree falls, does it make a sound?
If a mind breaks, can anyone tell?
If a soul leaves, does anyone notice?

She could feel the heat of the flames lick up her arms, dancing playfully along her skin with a searing kiss. Loud snaps, cracks, and pops filled her ears as she surveyed the carnage in front of her. Trees, centuries-old, kneeling before the destructive power of the fire, keeling over with no fight left at all. Her bones shook and vibrated as she felt the great thuds of the massive giants tumbling down all around her. Despite the chaos of the fire blazing around her she was calm, in the eye of the storm. She was the picture of righteous fury focused, Kali incarnated. And in the center of the flames, the heart of the destruction, there he stood.

Trees fell, and she listened.
Her mind broke, no one could tell.
His soul left, and the whole world took notice.

My Mother Runs With Wolves

51 parts Complete

A genetically unique but emotionally lost teenager must figure out who she is within her mixed-up, warring world of Shifters and Wolfstalkers. ***** It wasn't Maddie's choice to be born a half-breed, half Shifter, half Wolfstalker -- a hunter of Shifters -- and it wasn't her choice to keep her identity a secret. But after trying to attend high school like any normal sixteen-year-old, things quickly spiral south when her Stalker uncle finds out about her and catapults her out of anonymity and into the awareness--or possibly the crosshairs--of The Order of the Wolfstalker. Maddie must think fast and figure out a way to keep herself and her family safe, or risk losing everything. Including her life. [[word count: 70,000-80,000 words]]
