Emma’s pov I opened my eyes and looked around the room again. My eyes landed on the Lycan King who was sleeping on the couch. Why is he sleeping on the couch? He could have had me sleep in the servant quarters instead. When I made a little movement he opened his eyes and looked at me. I watched how he quickly jumped to his feet and came to my side. “Do you need anything? Some water or food?” he asked me. “No thank you,” I said getting off the bed. “I am so sorry for inconveniencing you. I will take my leave now,” I said looking outside. It’s daylight now, I can leave here and try to figure out how I will get to paradise. “Leave? Where are you going?” he asked me confused. “Well, I don’t know where it is yet. But have you heard of a place that is considered a paradise for supernatural creatures?” I asked him. “Yes, I know very well where it is. Is that where you want to go?” he asked me, and I nodded. “Will you be able to give me directions? Or tell me where to go?” I ask
Emma’s pov “Listen, I have an important meeting outside the pack today. I will be gone all day, for now just sit here and relax. Your wounds haven’t healed up yet,” The Lycan King said. I nodded at this but couldn’t understand why he was telling me all this. He then got up and left while I just looked at him. I was about to get up when an older woman came into the room. “And why are you just sitting there? Do you think that we are going to serve you?” she asked me. “No ma’am, I was about to come downstairs and wash the dishes,” I explained. “Then why are you here? Go downstairs and wash all the dishes,” I said, and I nodded. I got the dishes and then stopped to look at her. “What is it wolf?” she asked me, and I looked at my clothes. “You see these clothes are really big on me and they belong to the Alpha King. I don’t want to ruin them, they look really expensive,” I said, and she rolled her eyes. “So what? Are you using the clothes as an excuse to be lazy? Don’t try to a
Emma’s pov “I asked, what the hell is going on here?” he asked again. “Uhm Your Majesty I am setting the table,” I said, and Ruth walked in. “Your majesty, please have a seat. Dinner will be ready shortly,” she said and then looked at me. I turned to leave the room when the Lycan King called out my name. “Emma, didn’t I tell you to rest before leaving this morning?” he asked me, and I nodded. “You did sir,” I said, and he then put his hands in his pocket. “Then why are you standing in front of me setting the table?” he asked me. I was about to answer when he took one hand out of his pocket and stopped me. “Ruth, I would like you to explain what is happening here. Why is my mate working? Why is she doing something that I pay you for?” he asked her. “It’s just that, we need a few extra hands today,” Ruth said and bowed her head down. “Oh, is that it? Couldn’t you have come to me and asked me to hire extra help? Why make my mate work? You know who she is right?” he asked her,
Emma’s pov “It’s about your imprint,” he said, and I nodded. “What about it?” I asked him and he seemed to be having a hard time to say the words. Why would a Lycan King be nervous to talk to someone like me? “Have you told anyone how it happened?” he asked me, and I shook my head. “Well good, I know this will be hard for you to do. And please don’t take me wrong,” he said and then sighed. “The way I imprinted on you. It has never happened in history, well the only time it happened was a long time ago,” he paused and then started pacing around. “It was so long that we all consider it as nothing but a myth,” he added. “Are you asking me to not tell people that you imprinted on me with just a kiss?” I asked him. “Yes, it would look weird if they know that I imprinted on you over a mere kiss,” he said, and I nodded. “Wait, I am not saying that it was a mere kiss. It was a good kiss, you have really gentle lips,” he said and looked at me. “Why are you smiling?” he asked me, and
Logan’s pov I had my dinner and then started finishing up some work that was waiting for me. I watched as she then got a blanket and made herself comfortable on the couch. “What are you doing?” I asked her. I watched as her eyes widened and as I touched a strand of her hair. “I thought I would sleep on the couch,” she said. I could hear her heart beating like crazy. Why is she always so scared? It’s like she is always walking on eggshells around me. “I am so sorry, I just assumed that since you said I should sleep here then I would sleep on the couch,” she said. She then quickly took back the blanket she had taken from the bed. She stood straight and bowed her head to me. Why does she act like this? “No, I am asking you why you are sleeping on the couch. You should sleep on the bed,” I said, and she looked up. I watched how her eyes widened as she looked at me. She looked at me surprised and confused. I have seen that in her a lot lately. It seems like things that are
Emma’s pov ‘’That’s much better, look how hot you look,” Taylor said. “Won’t she be cold wearing that?” The Lycan asked her, and she just shrugged. “Oh, I will get her a coat to cover up,” she said and then walked off. “You look really beautiful,” Charles said, and I just nodded. Taylor came back, I don’t know if I should even call what she is showing me a coat. It was the size of the dress, honestly, I just wanted to drag this dress down. I wish that it was longer, gosh she just wouldn’t listen to me. All she could say was that I have great legs and I should show them off. Don’t get me wrong, the fabric feels good on my skin, and had the dress been longer then I would have loved it. “Let’s go then,” The Lycan King said, and we went out. He gestured that I get into a car with him and two other guys while Taylor and Charles went into another car. When I sat down the dress went up a little more and I tried dragging it down, but it didn’t work. “That thing looks thin, I bet
Logan’s pov “This is your card, ma’am,” the person who was helping her said. I watched as my mate took it and this huge smile spread on her face. “This is mine?” she asked me, and I nodded. “Only you know the pin, now you will be able to buy anything you want,” I said, and she smiled at this. “Thank you so much, I am so happy,” she said walking out. I don’t think she even realized that she was doing this, but she jumped around a little. That smile on her face was still much intact, and I found myself smiling. This is the first time I have seen her smile. An actual smile that reaches her eyes, one with no fear or discomfort. We found Taylor and Charles waiting for us outside. “Let’s go shopping, I can’t wait to see what you will pick out,” Taylor said dragging my mate again. “Do we have to follow them?” Charles asked me and I looked at him. “Emma will be staying with us for a few months. Situations such as this will help us understand best the kind of person she is,” I exp
Emma’s pov “This should be enough,” I said looking at the pile of clothes. “Are you sure?” Logan asked me and I nodded. I was about to pick up the bags when he beat me to it. Even the bodyguards picked up a few and I couldn’t help but look at them. I am not used to this type of behavior before. No one has ever treated me with kindness like they have. In the last two days, I have felt and received more kindness than I had ever received in 5 years. “Come on, we haven’t eaten, and I am starving. Let’s go and get some food,” Taylor said dragging my hand. She does that a lot which is a little confusing for me. She is a Gamma of the Lycan King which means she outranks me. And yet she holds my hand like we are old friends. We got to the restaurant, and I looked at the menu and everything was just too expensive. “I am not hungry,” I said, and everyone looked at me. “You haven’t eaten anything since morning,” The Lycan King said with a frown. “You need to eat, girl you look like
Emma’s pov “Welcome to our pack,” an older man said as he welcomed us. He is an Alpha judging from his aura. “I am Alpha Mantis,” he said, and then his eyes landed on me. He held out his hand and as I was about to shake it Logan held my hand. “Don’t let them shake your hands,” he said and then looked at the Alpha. “You ask for a meeting with us and yet refuse to shake hands. What kind of behavior is this Lycan?” an older woman asked as she was walking in. “Forgive me Elder Mantis, but the last time we met I didn’t exactly receive good news from you,” Logan said, and the old woman smiled. “I don’t need to touch your hand to tell you what kind of fate awaits you two,” she said and then looked at me. “When that mark disappears, make sure you get as far away from him as possible,” she said to me. I looked at Logan who didn’t seem surprised that she knew my mark would disappear. “We are not here to stay,” Logan said, and I started looking around. “Can we stay for a day?” I asked
Logan’s pov What are you thinking Logan, what will you do after hearing her moans? I am already having a hard time here and every bone in my body wants. I should just put her down and put some distance between us. I looked at her and she had this cute blush on her face. “Yes, I don’t mind you hearing them again,” she said with a smile. Oh shit, I am fucked, aren’t I? “But it was because of you, I don’t know what I should do,” she said, and I smiled looking at her. “Let’s sit down first and I will help you,” I said, and she nodded. I sat down and watched as bit her lower lip. “Do you remember what you were doing that night? The night you had the sex dream?” I asked her and she nodded. “Do that again,” I said, and she nodded and looked at me. She started grinding against me and then looked at me with a smile. “Like this?” she asked me, and I found myself smiling as I nodded. She has no idea how crazy she is driving me with all of this. I just watched as she was moaning an
Emma’s pov “So, you want revenge huh?” Taylor asked me and I nodded. “Not revenge, but I would say justice. I watched them kill innocent people more times than I can count. I was always so hopeless then,” I said and just shrugged. “But you are not hopeless anymore. You have us now and we will help you through all of this,” Charles said, and I smiled. “Thank you,” I said and then looked at Logan. “First things first, the enemy of our enemy is our friend. There is a family I know for certain doesn’t like Hendricks at all,” he said. “So, how will we meet these people? It’s not like they will open their home to us so we can talk to them,” I said, and he smiled. “They actually have opened their home to us,” Logan said, and I frowned. “It’s not a trap? I have never heard of werewolves opening the gates of their pack to Lycans,” I said, and he just shrugged. “These people are different, the Mantis family,” he said, and I looked at him. “Wait a second, did you just say that the Mant
Logan’s pov “She still won’t eat huh?” I asked Addison who nodded. We all tried to get her to eat for days but she hasn’t even moved. All she does is shower and then go back to sleep. She has been sleeping nonstop and the Doctor said that she is depressed. Honestly, I don’t know what to do to help her. “You should try again,” Taylor said, and I nodded. I walked to the room and found her sitting there and looking outside. “You need to eat Emma,” I said, and she looked at me. “I am not hungry,” she said, and I frowned. “It’s been 5 days, fine, then don’t do it for you. But eat for the sake of the rest of us,” I said, and she looked at me confused. “How can we eat when you haven’t, all everyone does during mealtime is play around with their food,” I said. “Why isn’t everyone eating? Tell them to eat and not to think about me, I will be fine,” she said and then looked outside again. “What happened to her was wrong, very wrong but starving yourself won’t fix it,” I said, and s
Emma’s pov “Hello, I am Rachel,” a little girl said, and I turned to look at her. She is probably 14 or 13 years old. “Why are you here kid?” Aria asked her and she just shrugged. “My parents were killed in a rouge attack and my entire pack was taken out. I somehow survived and I was brought to this pack,” she said with a massive smile. “Your parents died; how can you be so cheerful?” Aria asked and the girl just smiled. “My mother always told me to be kind and happy. That you attract what you are, happy people attract happiness and kindness towards them,” she explained. “Not in this place, this place is like a black hole,” Aria said, and Rachel looked at me confused. “They are so heavy that they absorb everything, including light into their center,” I explained but then realized my mistake. “You will be just fine,” I said, and she nodded. We all then went about our day and came back later like always. “So how was your day sunshine?” Aria asked her. “It was okay, there was
Logan’s pov “I saw it, you care about her,” Addison said, and I frowned. “She is my mate, of course, I care about her,” I said, and she just rolled her eyes. “I am giving up on you, I have decided that I don’t want you anymore,” she informed me. “Uhm, thank you?” I said and she smiled. “Won’t your parents kill you? They almost killed Taylor when she told them that she didn’t want to marry me,” I said, and she just shrugged. “I am strong and stubborn like Taylor. I can handle it,” she answered. “I know, good luck with whatever you choose to do,” I said, and she frowned. “Oh no, I will be staying here for some time. My parents are going to kill me when they find out,” she said, and I smiled. “Do you expect me to go and sleep under their roof? They might just smother me alive,” she added. “I could see them doing that,” I said and watched as she smiled. “Emma is an amazing girl. I hope you won’t let the past affect whatever future you will have with her. Mark her as soon as pos
Emma’s pov He came out later in the morning. “I am sorry, I made you uncomfortable,” I said, and he looked at me confused. “What? No, that’s not what happened. How do I explain it?” he asked me. “I know you are nice, and you are probably doing this just to spare my feelings. But I am sorry that I put you in a position where you were uncomfortable. I feel terrible about it,” I said, and he sighed. “Just let me explain,” he said but couldn’t find the words. “It wasn’t you, it had everything to do with me,” he said, and I nodded. “I am all packed, we should say goodbye and leave,” I said, and he nodded. As he was packing I got time and showered quickly. “Are you sure that you don’t want to stay for breakfast?” Grace asked us. “Yes, we are sure. I have some urgent work to tend to when I get there,” Logan said. “I heard about your quest, I hope you have all the luck in the world,” Lucas said to Logan. “Thank you, please stay well say bye to the kids for me,” I said, and Grace n
Emma’s pov I looked at him. “Why aren’t you answering me?” I asked him. “Because you are drunk, you had wine which I must have guessed was your first time, and not let you drink it so much,” he said. “Fine, don’t answer my question,” I said and looked away. “What do you feel like doing?” he asked me, and I smiled at this. “What I wanted to do at the beach yesterday and today. What I have been waiting to do for days now,” I said. “And what is that?” he asked me, and I wrapped my hands around his neck. “I want to kiss you,” I said, and he sighed. If you told me that I would initiate any kind of intimacy with a guy then I would have probably laughed at your face. Actually, I wouldn’t even believe a word of that. A man, intimacy with one wasn’t something I even thought of it. But him, I want him to hold my hand and kiss me. I want to sleep next to him, I want him to hold me as tight as he can. “Emma, what about you ask to do all this tomorrow? When you are sober and I know t
Logan’s pov “I helped at my old pack’s clinic,” she answered. “Thank you so much, I don’t know what I would have done without your help,” Lucas said with a smile. He walked back in, and Emma smiled as she walked off. She got in the shower and the clothes she was wearing were taken away. She came out of the shower and seemed happy. “You look happy,” I said, and she just shrugged. “Of course, I am, why wouldn’t I be?” she asked me and then giggled. “You should have seen how cute those babies were,” she said. “I am really proud of you,” I said. “Come on, let’s go and see the babies,” she said. Grace was moved into a different room since they were cleaning that one. We got there and found Lucas holding one baby while Grace was holding the other. “Hello, come and meet Emily and Brandon,” Lucas said. “Hey, those names sound a lot like Emma and Logan,” I said, and they smiled as they looked at each other. “Oh, you tried to name them after us,” I said. “Do you mind, can I hold
