Emma’s POV"Emma!" comes a female shout from nowhere, my body shakes at her loud voice.I look up and see Roberta standing behind me. "Emma, why you are here? Aren’t you supposed to have a class now?"“Oh!” My body is too frozen in my seat for the moment, I glance down at my watch, “sorry. I must have lost track of time. The professor changed the time today.”"I can see, something is bothering you," she stares at me, sighs softly, and then slides her arms around me and gives me a hug.I childishly pull out my tongue at her, she rolls her eyes and pats my shoulders. “If you want to talk about it, it doesn't have to be now. Not if you don't want to.”I bite my lips, don’t know where to start.“I think it’s dinner time,” she says, “on me.”She drives her car to a Mexican restaurant and ploughs through great pies of shredded dried beef and tacos; it’s the best delicious meal any of us have eaten in months.She folds a piece of smoked salmon and places to me, "delicious salmon, really amaz
Emma’s POVWhen I go home, I get a massage from Jordy."I'll be in London with my business partners for several days. I'll be glad if you're willing to call me. And I just thought I'd tell you I'm planning on telling you something."I’ve got many phone calls and text messages from him, but I stop myself from replying.Instead, I content myself with reading his messages every hour or so, then swiping up to close down the app.“Emma, do you like the clothes that I bought it?”“I’m sorry, Emma. I didn’t mean to hide something from you. Please call me, I’ve called you many times.”“Call me, or send me a message, Emma. I just want to preserve the fragile happiness we are building up. I just want to do all I can to protect it.”...Every time I do so I put my phone away with the anxiety and tell myself that this will be the last time reading his messages.I tell myself that over time the spirit of the phone calls and messages will dead, that I will stop caring about them or wanting to read
Emma’s POVI didn't sleep last night, I law awake on the sofa, gazing up at the ceiling, and ran over and over the conversation I have talked with Jordy and Austin.It's as if everything has shifted, fragmented and settled in some other place, into a pattern I barely recognize.I can't tell anyone, that is almost the worst part. But I have to go to school no matter what happened.As I walk into the grand foyer, I accidentally hear people murmuring about me, let's just say that their words are very mean.In the crowd, many curious gazes at me, and some people even glare at me with eyes shot daggers.This hostility carries on through the whole day. A girl even splashes me with a cup of coffee; one guy teases me and asks me if he gives me some money, would I will give him oral sex.I feel very uncomfortable about the vicious attention, everyone's heads snap at me no matter where I am.But as soon as I turn around to search for the speakers, the voices die down very quickly.I'm so nervou
Austin’s POVHow did I know Emma has no place to live?I move my eyes to avoid her gaze, trying to hide the awkward face.Barbara sneers and cross her arms angrily, "Emma, such bitch like you doesn't need any attention, as long as a person has a brain surely won't live under the same roof with you."I scowl at Barbara, feeling angry about that. "Shut up, and get out of here immediately."I can't deny that Barbara is a bitch and a complete shrew, she fooled me, and even try to hurt Emma."Austin, you sneer at me? I'm trying to help you to see Emma's stinky mind," Barbara yells at me with flooded tears.I roll my eyes, my patience is running off at this moment."What the hell is this story about you loving this slut recently?" Barbara shouts at me before her eyes take in my suit. "And you are actually falling in love with her, this brat?" She asks in disbelief.Emma is our pack Beta's kid, I love my pack with all my heart but I won't sacrifice my happiness to marry her.“You promised th
Emma’s POVRyan and I walk together to the main house just as the rain begins to fall harder, and I curse under my breath at the weather.We plan to hold a party tonight, and the heavens think it's fit to send down a mixture of rain and ice.I hold an umbrella and Ryana is at my side leading me along. I pause inside his door, my shoes are muddy from the damp ground. As I look around, I can't see tracking the filth across the floor.“Emma, come in!” Ryan gives me a pair of slippers and grabs my hand to the parlor.My gaze stares out the window anxiously at the rain-slick streets, Under this weather, Austin is crazy enough to go swimming, is he seeking death? Then why should I care about him so much?Ryan goes to close the window, and the sharp pitter-pat of rain from outside fades to a distant sound.The rest of the groups start to talk about gossip and their hobbies. The more they laugh, the more worried I feel.Why I can't control my feelings toward Austin?One of the group members i
Emma’s POVMy body begins to shake, "Austin, I'm so very frightened..."He doesn't give me the chance to finish the sentence. He firmly grasps my hand and pulls me along with him down the hallway."But Ryan -""It's too late, he is already asleep. My apartment is here," he ignores my protest as he throws open the door to the apartment, pulling me inside before closing the door.He hugs me in his arms and holds me close against his chest, my body instantly surrounds by his perfume, a heady aroma."Let go of me,” I demand as his fingers now curl about the top of my arm and pull my body toward him until our bodies are almost touching.The distance is close enough that I can feel the heat of his muscular body and breathe in his seductive combination of aromas.Then I can feel his engorging manhood and it growing longer and thicker."You're perfectly correct in your statement, our relationship is lack eagerness and warmth, and this is no longer true," he murmurs.I feel so very good in his
Emma’s POVAfter the passion night, before Austin wakes up, I sneak out of his bed and go home with Ryan.Ryan and his friends thought I slept at Ryan's house, and they didn't know what happened last night.But when I arrive home, Tara texts me that I’d better move out as soon as possible, there is no cheap place to rent.She suggests the place she told me about last time, but I’ve heard from the news, that many creepy rich landlords use the cheap rent to lure the girls and force them to sell their bodies. So I told her I didn’t like the place.Austin says he can offer me his apartment. Jordy suggests I can live in one of his houses near my college.But I decide to think about it and try to look for another cheap place to live. Recently I sleep at the coffee shop at night while taking away my other stuff in the attic room.It’s cold today, I’m in my nightdress still in my dirty attic room, put a pile of paper on my lap, and want to write a letter to Roberta.The coffee shop has a big
Roberta’s POVEmma doesn’t show up and starts her work today, it’s not regular for her.I ring her phone three times without an answer, her phone is set to voice mail.The weather is changing from one minute to the next, maybe she has a fever or she is sick. I’m a bit worried about her, so I decided to visit her.I stand outside the building where she lives, it’s hard to see inside the house. I directly walk into the house, inside the attic room is chaos.There are no nights on but the furniture and Emma’s personal stuff I know are gone; the ground is a mess of broken vases and cups, and picture frames on the floor.uThe terror grips me.“Emma? Emma! Are you there?” I start to shout Emma’s name, but no one answers.There is something that looks like human legs under the bed, I feel terrified from my body, like some cold part of me is watching the scene unfold.Emma is in her nightdress, her face is pulp.“Oh my god!” I scream as I pull her small torso to me, checking she has a pulse:
Jordy's POVI know I love Emma. And I know she needs that kind of strength and respect in marriage and would never be happy unless she knows we are strong enough to guide her.Marriage is born to be sacred. And a lady is mine now. Logically, I know that women are not property, even if we are married.But still, marriage vows are sacred.As Emma makes her way toward the altar, everything around me starts to disappear, her face, her smile, and her tears are the only thing I see.She is too pure, too perfect. She is the perfect - my angel. And she is about to be my wife today.As Emma's dad passes over her hands to us, a thought rings over and over in my head.She was perfect, so, so perfect . . .When we settle into our places, the priest begins to speak, Now may Emma, Jordy, and Austin stand up in front of me.""Emma, have you come here to enter into Marriage without coercion, freely and wholeheartedly?" "Yes! I have!""Are you prepared, as you follow the path of marriage, to love
Emma's POVToday is my wedding, and I still can't quite accept that I'm getting married.I'm so nervous!I'm tense and stressed.Dad insists on picking up the bill for thousands of guests invited, and he also covers my personal expenses. My brothers Richard and Elton organize the church and the castle - the venue for the reception.Hundreds of guests will take jets to the wedding and lives in the castle and royal hotel for the next three days to celebrate.7:00 am rolls around all too soon, and I'm sitting on the bed, getting ready to be two men's wife.I can see the morning of the wedding dawned bright and sunny.Even though I'm pregnant, my boobs growing bigger and my weight gaining more, it makes me look gorgeous.The two men I'm marrying are my first lovers and the fathers of my twins, and I'm proud of it.Suddenly, the door opens. Two women enter my room and scream."Ohh! Look who is the most stunning bride today!" Lydia yells out as soon as she sees me."You look absolutely beau
Emma's POVDad and my two brothers ask me to meet them the day before the wedding to discuss the gifts they have prepared for me since I was born. Dad expresses that he believes I deserve a more extravagant wedding, but the mischievous twins in my belly never fail to keep me on my toes.At midnight, they knock on my belly, saying "hi" to their mommy, which leaves me both exhausted and overjoyed. Therefore, I am eager to have our wedding done quickly.Jordy, Austin, and I enter the room, finding Dad already seated on the sofa with a serious expression."Dad!" I exclaim, realizing how much I've missed him as soon as I see his face.My two handsome brothers, Elton and Richard, shake their heads, unable to contain their laughter."Are you hungry?" Elton asks, knowing that his nephew and niece are always ravenous and demanding food."What delightful treats have you prepared?" I ask, my mouth watering as I scan the tables.Richard smiles and signals the maids to bring me some food. I sit o
Emma's POVI feel a man's hand holding my waist. I turn as Jordy leans over the bed. His fingers twine in my hair, "Morning Emma!"He says drowsily, reaching to touch my cheeks."Morning!" I murmur as he gently nips at my lips. "I... I thought it might be someone else."He arches his brows, "last night I made you feel wonderful, remember that?"Yes, he certainly did. I think of his lips, and hands, and the thick, hot part of him that invaded my body.He was passionate. He was strong and loving and kind, even when Josephine tested his patience. Even when he turned me over his knee and spanked me, he held me afterward and stroked my hair and comforted me.He sits up and gets dressed. Not just dressed to wander in the home, but dressed formally, in a deep blue ensemble with an intricately tied cravat.I feel something quite strange about him."Why are you dressing so formally?" I sit up, clutching the sheet to my chest, for I'm still naked. I look at the whole of him. "You look very hand
Emma's POVIt had been almost a week since Jordy had slept for most of the first forty-eight hours, and then, astonishingly, he began to look better.His skin regained its color, and the blue shadows around his beautiful eyes disappeared. His wounds healed, and he started eating, walking, and doing sports.I knew he was feeling better when he insisted that I try things I would have never eaten before. Some foods like spicy creole curries and seafood whose names I didn't recognize.And today is the day we go home.Austin went to Dad's office to discuss our wedding, Lydia and Mom had some private matters to attend to, and they flew home two days ago. Dad and my brothers needed to deal with business.So, I drive Jordy to our home.When we arrive at the castle, Jordy says, "Can you do me a favor?""Yeah."Jordy rubs his chin with puppy eyes. "I haven't shaved my beard for many days."I sigh. "But I don't have a razor here...""I have one." He takes my hand and leads me to his room.I have
Jordy's POV"Jordy, open your eyes, Jordy... Jordy!" I heard a voice calling by my ear repeatedly.Many times I tried to open my eyes, but it was futile, as my body and mind were trapped in darkness.When I wake up from my unconscious state, without needing a doctor's examination, I know I have a high fever. My chest is in pain. In the car accident, several bones in my chest may have shattered.When I try to move my head, I feel like a jumble of pain. "Ouch!" I moan."Jordy?! You're awake!"Before I react, before I try to catch my breath, Emma brings her hand up and cups my cheeks, sliding her thumb over my cheekbone."Emma?" I say, lifting my head to kiss her. But the pain stops me.While I'm grappling with that, she closes the distance between us and her mouth meets mine.Darkness burns to ash then, bright white and cleansing. Every pain, every thought, everything goes from my mind in a second as her life moves over mine.Emma is kissing me!She never kissed me like this. So much ac
Emma's POVSadness, dizziness, pain, and blood...Where am I?"Jordy!" I gasp, sitting up with his name on my lips. Opening my eyes, I blink, feeling as if I've been sleeping for a year.I find myself lying in darkness, surrounded by the early morning hours. As someone pulls back the curtains, warm blankets are piled on me.My head spins with the movement, and my stomach lurches, causing waves of nausea.Turning to my left, I see my brother Elton sleeping beside me, a blanket pulled up over his legs.Where am I? And why do I feel so groggy?And then the memories flood back, crashing like a car wreck. I remember Jordy saving my life, and Austin pulling Jordy's body out of the car. I recall someone wiping my forehead and whispering something."You're awake!" Elton says nervously, gripping my hand firmly.Elton remains by my side, visibly exhausted from lack of sleep, and as soon as he sees me waking up, he firmly holds my hand."Water..." I rasp.He quickly picks up a glass of water nea
Emma’s POVIt's a quarter to ten, and my brother Elton plans to take me out to a fancy restaurant to celebrate the fact that he is going to be an uncle.We talk about names for my kids and how excited our dad and brothers are.I bite my lip and ask him, "Elton, do you think I should contact Jordy and Austin and tell them about it?""I don't know," he says."You were an eighteen-year-old girl when Jordy wrecked your life. And Jordy is a playboy; he owes you the security of marriage. For him, marriage has to be a life sentence."I furrow my eyebrows; I don't understand why Elton doesn't like Jordy."He is my partner, and he proposed to me. We're going to get married."Elton shakes his head. "Your real family, Dad, your two brothers, will provide you and the twins with a safe haven and the recognition they need for a better life.""But I love them, and they love me. They will be happy when they hear I'm pregnant.""I'm sure, Emma... Did they call you or try to contact you recently?""Han
Barbara's POVIf I killed Maura, Austin would marry me, right? "Hey, wake up!" Someone shakes my body violently, I open my eyes from a deep sleep and groan as the pain from my wounds pierces through my sleep.I sleep on a mat laid on the top of a haystack. Rest has been elusive lately, as they provided no clean blanket to keep me warm or enough food to satisfy my hunger.In the darkness, a man holds a knife and wears a big smile.The knife had a blade finer and sharper than any razor. If it slices a warrior, he might not even know he has been cut, not immediately.I can tell he has slaughtered many werewolves, both the blade and the handle were wet."Who are you?" I ask, my gaze fixes on his knife."My name is Albert, I come here to help you get out of here. Your enemy Emma is still alive, but she won't be returning."His words shock me, widening my eyes in disbelief."That pathetic worm is alive? I push her off the cliff!""Yes. You'd better hurry up, there is no time to talk about
