Ember's POV

I stared at the ceiling emotionlessly, thinking about the option the Lycan Kings offered me.

I either choose to stay for six months and they take care of every possible threat to me and the kids or I leave and while they still try to protect me, my safety isn't assured.

Everything in me is telling me to stay, after all it's their fault that my life is being threatened.

Another option to end all this is for me to reject them, they accept the rejection and we all go our separate ways but they are unwilling to accept that option. I frowned, recalling how scary they looked when I brought up the issue of rejection. If there's one thing I've come to realize it's that, they were never going to reject me and let me go so easily.

Not only do they want six months to take care of all possible threats to the kids and I, they also want six months to prove themselves to me and make me acknowledge them but I doubt I ever will.

As much as I hate to admit it, I feel drawn to them

    Alec's POV I glowered in anger, seeing how Everest dragged our mate into the office without a single respect. I boiled in anger from where I sat, holding myself back from doing something rash because all I could think about was ripping Everest hand off the rest of his body for manhandling our mate without any care in the world but I was the Alpha and I needed to remain calm and stop Tyler from doing something harsh also. He looked like he was losing it already and Everest was a few minutes away from being dead. "What is going on here?" I asked, my deep baritone voice resonating around the room. "You won't believe what I saw, Alpha," Everest began, giving her a stink eye and she glared at him in return her eyes burning in fury. It made her hot and vicious. As much as I wanted to teach Everest a lesson for treating her badly and making her this furious, I also wanted to make her look at me with those same vicious eyes, burning with desire and longing for me. "What did you see

    Ember's POVAs I walked back to my room the maids all came to a stand still, their heads bowed as I passed them. I frowned, totally irritated with what they were doing.No one moved a muscle or did anything until I walked past them and they all avoided looking me in the eyes.I didn't know what was more infuriating at the moment, the gown I was forced to wear or the maids and guards acting this way. I wish I could tell them to just stop it but recalling my previous encounter with my personal maid I doubt they would listen.They are all probably scared of getting punished like she was when I asked her to address me by my name. Now that I think of it, I don't remember her name.Was it Mabel, Maya, I shook my head in denial, none of the names sounding right. I took a final turn, stepping into my room."I'll just ask her when next I see her," I huffed in annoyance, unable to recall her name.Staring at myself in the mirror, I frowned seeing how different I looked. I suddenly miss my form

    Ember's POVI looked around, unable to believe my eyes. This could not possibly be Faye's room.Mia probably got it all wrong.I moved around, looking around in amusement at how childish the room was. It felt like it was an actual child living inside. If I haven't seen Faye already, I would think she was a five year old kid from how the room was set up.There were children's toys everywhere, a train station set up in the room, some toy animals hanging from the ceiling and so many more crazy but amusing things. I couldn't list them all.If this room truly belongs to Faye then I could understand why she wouldn't want anyone to see this.It screams crazy!For a matured lady like her to still love and enjoy playing with things meant for kids, I could imagine how embarrassing that will look like when others find out.I wonder if Alec and Tyler knew about this but just chose to turn a blind eye to it. She might be able to keep this part of her away from the maids and guards but I doubt she

    Alec's POVI flung my arms fiercely, going for Tyler's head but he dodged, swiftly going for my belly, catching me off guard.I stumbled back, panting heavily, and he grinned, having so much fun."You look distracted brother, you left your sides wide open as though you're asking me to come and feast," he said, stating the obvious.I rolled my eyes, wiping the sweat off my face, ready to go in for another punch. "You're one to talk after all, you're not the one disliked the most by Ember."Once again, he easily blocked my punch but I didn't let him off that easily, I immediately jabbed him in the belly with my knee, forcing him backwards."So, this is about Ivy?," he said, correcting me. I liked Ember more, Ivy didn't sound like her but if I wanted every other person to recognize her as Ivy, I had to do the same too."She hates me," I revealed, frowning."It's not like you've done anything to make her like you either," he replied, shrugging."I wouldn't say she likes me either but comp

    Ember's POVI kept having flashes of Brandon's dad, dead beside me and my hands filled with his blood."Murderer!" I could hear them yelling in my head, their fingers pointed at me and I shook my head, aggressively, tears streaming down my eyes."No, no, no, I didn't kill him, I didn't kill him!" My voice was inaudible and no one seemed to hear me.I crouched in a corner, my hair disheveled, my hands filled with blood and accusative glares being thrown my way. No one believed me, they wanted me dead. I could hear their incessant cries for my blood overshadowing my plea for innocence."I didn't do it!" I muttered under my breath, trying to convince myself since no one else seemed to believe me."Ember!" Someone whispered, calling out to me and I looked up, my face stricken with tears, trying to pinpoint where the voice came from."Ember, I believe you," the voice said again calmly and tears filled my eyes."You do?" I asked, every other person disappearing and I was left alone in an em

    Ember's POVI groaned in frustration for the millionth time, tired of doing nothing and just laying in bed all day."Are you ok, Ivy?" Mia asked, looking worried."Do I look ok?" I frowned, looking irritated and she remained silent, having nothing to say. The kids were presently asleep in Faye's room and I didn't want to wake them up.I've been holed up here in my room for as long as I can remember and it's frustrating, just staying in bed and doing nothing. How the hell was I to have my revenge on Brandon if all I do is sleep and wake up?As much as I hated to admit it, I was weak and couldn't even protect myself. The sight of blood was enough to knock me unconscious.If I wanted to take down the bloodhound pack, I needed to get stronger and I wasn't going to become stronger by laying in bed all day, doing absolutely nothing.I immediately sat up, surprising Mia. I wore a determined look on my face, ready to make a change."What are you planning to do Ivy?" Mia frowned, her eyes fill

    Ember's POV"I thought you wanted to tell me how to get myself off Faye's hate list? Where are you suddenly taking me to?" I frowned, blindly following Mia as she led to God knows where."You need to see what I'm about to show you first. It will help you understand better even without an explanation," she replied, grinning.Mia was about to tell me how to get myself off Faye's hate list when she suddenly stopped and said it was better if she showed me instead. I had no idea what she plans on showing me but I believe it has something to do with Faye.Not knowing where Faye was, she left to make a finding before coming back to drag me along with her.I looked around, recognizing the route we were taking. We were heading towards the training room. I was gradually becoming familiar with the entire building. It was the best thing to do since I was stuck here for the next six months."Why the training room anyways? What would Faye want there anyways? She doesn't look like the type that figh

    Ember's POVI huffed in annoyance, shuffling through the dresses in the wardrobe but none was to my taste. They were all bland and they didn't have the sparkle I wanted.I needed new clothes!There was a knock on the door, drawing my attention."Who is there?" I asked."It's me Luna," Mia replied and I rolled my eyes."I told you to knock two times and come in unless I tell you not to." She opened the door, coming in and she chuckled nervously, scratching her head."I'm sorry Ivy. I've just kinda gotten used to always knocking and waiting till I'm asked to come in.""You need to unlearn that if you're going to be my personal maid, I can't always be reminding you what to do. What's in your hands anyways?" I frowned, glancing at the packaged box in her hands."Oh, I brought this for you, Ivy," she said, handing the package item to me and I took it, intrigued."What's this?" I tore the package open, finding a flowered gown and some boots in the box, surprising me."How did you know?" I l

    Alec's POVI sat still in my chair lost in thoughts as Rome rambled on, giving me his reports but I could barely hear a word he was saying, not when my mind was totally occupied with thoughts of Ember.Never in a million years would I have expected Ember to suddenly kiss Tyler and I out of the blues in the presence of everyone. Although I was a little disappointed when I discovered that she only did it out of the influence of what she was drugged with. My eyes burnt in fury once I remembered that someone actually dared drug Ember with lecherous thoughts in mind. Too bad he died by her hands and not mine. He would have experienced worse things than death. Ember kissing Tyler and I was not the only shocking thing that blew our minds, finding out she actually killed different wolves from the Howling moon pack was more shocking. A smile crept on my face as a proud feeling washed over me.FLASHBACK Tyler and I sat still in the living room, the temperature dangerously low as we awaited t

    Ember's POVMy face paled drastically as my memories came rushing in. The headache I felt initially was now non-existent and I could barely feel anything anymore. I was still trying to wrap my head around the fact that I actually killed someone, not just one person but more than 5 people all at once."Do you remember now?" Faye asked, releasing my hands and I chuckled nervously, stunning them all."That was simply an illusion right? I can't possibly have killed a lot of people like that on my own at my current strength, right? It has to be an illusion." I shook my head sideways, refusing to accept that it was real. The best explanation I could come up with was the fact that it was an illusion. "You should really stop undermining yourself, Ivy," Faye grinned, looking at me with a strange look in her eyes. But—""Don't even think of coming up with another crazy theory, Ivy Rose," Faye cut me short abruptly, taking me aback as she addressed me by my full name. I frowned, glaring at he

    Ember's POVI groaned from my sleep, rolling on my side till I landed on the floor and let out a yelp."Fuck!" I cussed loudly, totally waking up from my sleep. I sat up on the ground, frowning as I looked around, no sign of Mia. That was strange, I always wake up to see Mia's face every morning. Not seeing her felt like I was missing something.I groaned, closing my eyes briefly as I felt a splitting headache. "Fuck this hurts," I grumbled, slowly dragging myself up from the ground. Besides the splitting headache, I felt like shit. Staring at my reflection in the mirror I couldn't help but scowl. I looked like I just came out of the deepest part of hell, looking miserable. First of all, my hair seemed to be everywhere and no matter how I tried to get it to relax, it wouldn't obey. Besides my hair, I was wearing a shirt that called me a bitch, very insulting. There's no way I would have or agreed to wear a shirt like this unless I wasn't in my right mind. Worst of all, my face looks

    Ember's POVFaye huffed, rolling her eyes as she walked in, taking a seat beside me on the bed. "I've been standing there long enough to hear you ask questions about the healer you shouldn't be asking.""Why shouldn't I be asking?" I asked, arching my eyebrows at her. "Is it so wrong for me to want to know the woman who helped my kid and also took care of me while I was unconscious?""No, it's not wrong but no one appreciates you sticking your nose in things that have nothing to do with you," she retorted, taking me aback.Ok....... What the hell was wrong with her? I gave her a weird look trying to think of a million things that could be making her act out while Mia just stood aside, silently, not saying anything. "Look," she sighed, her face loosening as she faced me."I'm sorry I sound like a bitch just now but you really should stop asking around about her. It's not going to do anyone any good. There's a reason no one knows anything about her and a reason no one cares.""But I d

    Ember's POVMy eyes slowly fluttered open as I laid still in bed, frowning. For the first time in a long time I had a different dream with no Brandon in it neither was I crying or in pain. What was more strange was that it felt so real. "Ivy, are you ok?" Mia asked, standing beside me, looking worried and I slowly sat up, frowning. "I'm ok, I just had the strangest dream and I don't know what to make of it.""A dream?" She frowned and I nodded positively. "Was it a nightmare? Did you see them again?" Mia questioned, both worried and irritated. Ever since I began having nightmares she's been worried. Although I tried to hide it from her, it's easier said than done. Nothing goes past Mia unless she chooses to ignore it."It wasn't a nightmare, this dream was different," I immediately replied, explaining. My eyes landed on the roses beside the table, my eyebrows arching at it in confusion. "The Lycan King brought it while you were asleep. They didn't want to interrupt your sleep," s

    Alec's POVI stood by the doorway, leading to Ember's room quietly as I watched her sleep, a proud look on my face. It is of no doubt that Tyler and I were the luckiest men in the world to have her as our mate. Although, she barely acknowledged us her mate but it didn't mean I'll throw in the towel easily. Even if it takes years to finally get her to fall in love with us, I'll be by her side waiting. After all, I had all the time. Time was a small feat for Lycans. A sly grin formed on my face as I recalled the intimate moment we shared, right before her fight with Faye, causing blood rush down to my lower region, making me hard. Fuck! Just the mere thought of how perfect she is in my arms was enough to fuel my desire. Turning away right after it was exactly five minutes had to be the one of the hardest things I was forced to do. In all honesty, five minutes was barely enough to show her what it meant to be mine. I didn't need minutes, I needed hours, days………years, but I knew it wa

    Ember's POV"Murderer!" They all yelled at me, calling me names and throwing things at me as they dragged me around.The pain, the shame, the torment, I could feel them all as tears rolled down my eyes in torrents."I didn't kill him. Please, believe me, I didn't kill him," I kept saying but no one was ready to listen to me. They were all convinced that I was the murderer, and whatever I said only aggravated them more.How could I possibly kill a man that loved me and treated me just like his daughter when I had no one. How can they believe I could possibly kill him?In the midst of the insults and shame, I saw Brandon and Emily standing aside, kissing, and giggling at whatever it is they found funny. I gritted my teeth in anger, remembering it all.It was all because of them!Everyone turned on me and my unborn babies because of them.They set me up!I gritted my teeth in anger, the betrayal I felt drowning the pain I felt from how I was being treated by the pack members. The pain co

    Ember's POV"Are you sure you're okay, Ivy?" Everest eyed me suspiciously. I haven't been myself since Alec and Tyler left. I kept zoning out and thinking about how good it felt when they both kissed me. I never felt this good when Brandon kissed me.This all felt different and the thought of it alone drives me nuts.How could they spark up this much emotion in me all at once?"Ivy Rose?" Everest called, bringing me back to reality."I'm fine, Everest," I assured him, smiling tight-lipped."Liar," he muttered under his breath, not saying it out loud but I could hear him. How was I to tell him that Alec and Tyler were the sole reason I was this way? I couldn't possibly tell him all the inhumane things they did to my poor, innocent body.We stood outside the sparring grounds, just at the entrance. Faye was already on the sparring grounds warming up, the guards and servants gathered around and filled the seats to watch the fight, cheering loudly for her. But for some reason, it did nothi

    Ember's POV "You know Ivy, you still have a chance to back out of the fight and save your pretty face, the horror you're about to put it through," Mia said, helping me dress up."I'm already as nervous as it is and the last thing I want is for you to give me more reasons to be scared, Mia," I replied, frowning. "If you're not going to encourage me I'd rather not hear you talk," I added. "I'm just watching out for you," she muttered under her breath, frowning and I remained silent, not saying anything. I knew better than anyone else that she was simply scared for me and I wouldn't blame her. Who wouldn't be scared at the knowledge of fighting a Lycan known as a demon. No matter how brave I'm trying to be, I still can't help but be equally scared. Mia was right, I still had the chance to back out now but it was not an option for me. “How about this; I add some laxative to Faye's meal. It would give you more chances of winning and coming out of the fight with a less battered face,"
