EMMA

Anger boiled inside of me, burning me up from the inside. A loud growl escaped my throat right before my fist collided with the wall. My fist punched the wall three more times before someone pulled me away from it. I turned to face them and let loose a vicious snarl. How dare they stop me.

My back collided with something hard, and my anger kept boiling inside of me. Something wrapped around my neck and pierced into my flesh. The pressure of it helped me focus through the anger. My chest heaved, and I focused on the sparks around my neck. The haze dissipated with each second that passed. I looked up and saw Handsome looking down at me. I nodded as much as I could with his hand around my throat. His hand left my neck, and he leaned down, kissing the punctures to close them.

The reality of it all hit me, and I slid down the wall until I was sitting against it. I was pissed. No, I was furious. This was bound to happen no matter how much they tried to assure me that it would not. I

    EMMA We made the plan for Doc to come draw some blood and run a gamut of testing on it through a separate testing facility located in Johnson’s sector. It made sense that they had some off-the-grid facilities for things they could not exactly publicize. Plus, we could trust Doc not to mention the project to anyone else. The information was far too sensitive. We all trusted that he would understand that. Xander walked me back to my room and leaned against the doorway. I could see how much tonight weighed on him. I really hated how the night turned out because today had been perfect except for the shadow and my slight breakdown. “Want Kai to spend the night with you?” he asked. I wound my arms around his waist and looked up into those copper eyes that I had fallen for the first time I saw them. How the fuck did I get so lucky? They both did not leave me high and dry after this craziness. I was fairly certain that many people would have. No, they stayed beside me and fought for me. T

    XANDER Emma’s side of the bed was cold by the time that I woke up. Healing her veins took a lot out of Kai, so she probably slipped out when we were passed out. If there was even just one solace from last night, it was that Kai could help heal those veins. There was at least a temporary solution even though we were not able to fix it just yet. It helped lift some weight off our shoulders. Yesterday started out really fucking awesome. I finally got to truly kiss Emma, not to mention that I got to taste her too. She was delicious and so perfect and all ours. Then she sparred with me and royally kicked my ass. It took every ounce of patience not to take her right then and there. Oh, then that blowjob still had me seeing stars. Taking her to the bar was the highlight of my…well, life. So, I possessively laid claim to her so that nobody would fuck with her. I refused to tolerate it. What was better was that she wanted me to claim her in front of them as well. Her body had fit so perfect

    XANDER She cleared her throat and clasped her hands in her lap. She was trying to fight back a smile at my words. I knew that she truly cared for the wolf counterparts. Kai and I were shocked with what Astrid had told Emma about how the wolf counterparts hated the way he was being treated. “So, this whole mindlink thing is newer to me. Can images or memories be shared?” Emma was always so reluctant to see herself how everyone else did. She really had made quite the following. Those who had met her, with the exception of a few assholes, loved her already. The pack was drawn to her. “Fairly easily, yes. You need to focus on the image or memory you want to share and push it out through the link.” It was a very valuable tactic for patrolling and interrogations. If they came across something they needed us to witness, they could open up the link entirely, and we could then watch it in real-time. Or, if facts needed to be corroborated, it could easily be done that way. There had also be

    EMMA Mates. Xander said that we would be mates, one way or another as long as I wanted it. I believed his words. They wove their way down into the deepest parts of me and unlocked something I had never allowed myself to long for – a future. I finally allowed myself to realize that I desired a future with them more than anything. There was no longer a need about the here and now when it came to them. I could not only desire a future with them, but I could have it as well. No matter what, they would be mine, and I would be theirs. How the fuck did I end up in this place in life? Alpha Xander was feared around the country, and rightfully so. His hands could destroy life itself without hesitancy or effort. Yet his hands brought me nothing but pleasure. He was the sweetest person to me. He loved me and chose me above anyone else. He could easily have his pick of women, yet he chose just me. I would not lie and say that it did not leave me a little bit on the smug side of things. Not t

    EMMA I held her eyes and pointed in the direction that Kai went. “Because that is Alpha Kai who saved this pack from annihilation time and again. His reputation as Black Devil strikes fear into outsiders, keeping them away from our borders. There is not a single thing that he would not do to protect his pack. It is because of his sacrifices that you live in such a free pack. Two years ago, he singlehandedly disarmed both the Maegeon pack and The Blue Ridge pack to free a group of twenty-three pups who were kidnapped and nearly auctioned off as sex slaves. If I remember correctly, nine of the pups were from this very pack.” ‘Let me know when you shift back, Xander,’ I said. I heard his chuckle through the link but did not turn around, making sure I was not the one who broke eye contact first. This was a battle of wills, and my fight was a whole lot stronger than hers. She would submit to me by the time that we were done here. I pointed behind me with my thumb. “That’s Alpha Xander

    EMMA Xander scooped me up bridal style and ran towards the packhouse. I looked up at him, taking in his handsome face that was filled with such determination. It was easy to see that his torture of me also tortured himself. Two could play at that game. My fingers trailed down his neck and across his collarbone. My lips connected with the juncture of his neck that would one day bear my mark for all to see. I teased it with my lips at first and then my teeth. He angled his neck to the side, to give me more access. I bit it harder than I ever had before. A growl slipped from his lips, making me do it again. We made it to our bedroom in record time. He nearly tore the door off the hinges to get it open and kicked shut with a loud thud. That predatory aura oozed off him, making my thighs clench. My breath whooshed from my lungs as my back collided with the wall. His lips captured mine with bruising and demanding force. It was hard, rough, and I needed more of it. He bit down hard on m

    XANDER ‘How did we get so lucky?’ Kai asked, as we dressed and walked towards the War Room with Emma in our arms. ‘No fucking idea,’ I answered honestly. I really had no clue as to why we were brought together, but I was eternally grateful, nonetheless. She was everything we could want and then more. Nobody could be our equal except her. She was not afraid to challenge us or put us in our place when she felt we needed it. The list of people that could get away with that was limited to very select names. We have not even slept together yet, but if this foreplay was any indication, we would find the highest planes of pleasure. I loved how I did not have to hold back with her. Not to mention that she enjoyed when we were rough with her. I was initially worried about that given Blacktree’s maltreatment of her, but she thrived off it with us. It made everything that more exciting. The way she stood up against Freya was downright the sexiest thing I ever witnessed. Freya threw accusatio

    XANDER “I need to take care of some work. Would you like to join me?” I asked. Her breathtaking smile was all the answer that I needed. I knew Ethan had patrol duty tonight, so it would just be her and I. Surely, we could get something accomplished. ‘Keep telling yourself that,’ Kai laughed, but I just ignored him. I knew that Emma would keep me on track because she took this just as seriously as I did. For her to make it a condition made me proud as hell. I could and would worship her curvaceous body later. “I’ll meet you right there,” she said before jogging up the stairs. I let myself take in the nice view of her ass, remembering what we did earlier. Who would have thought that this she-wolf would crave that type of stimulation just like I did? I shook the dirty thoughts from my mind before heading to the office. Yeah, she would be my downfall, but I would gladly fall for her. The trade proposals had to be narrowed down drastically. It was impossible to accept every proposal,

    EMMA I went into labor during the middle of the night, and it scared the living shit out of my mates. It was adorable while also being a little comical. Most soon-to-be fathers were like that. We had everything ready because we knew it was possible to go into labor a little earlier than expected because of having twins. Oddly enough, this pregnancy had no true complications. Most shifters who had multiples typically had complications. However, I was thankful that everything had gone as smoothly as possible. The sigils truly helped with the pain of the delivery because it would have been torture otherwise. I felt horrible that I did not already have these on hand for when Bellamy was born. “You have this, Emma. One more push and your baby boy will be here,” Tilly said. It had been ten very long hours of labor, but it would be worth it in the end. Kai was sitting behind me, lending me strength during this time. He had a hold of one leg while Xander had a hold of the other. The thre

    EMMA It was still very surreal to think that I had been in Tylaphina’s realm for six entire months. However, I was able to bring back messages to Papa and Leonidas from our family. They were amazed as I told them about spending time with everyone. Their parents wanted me to tell them how incredibly proud they were of them both. They were proud of Papa for being the King that our people needed. They watched as he transitioned to the ruler of Aedrul and were thankful for how he protected everyone that he could from Selene until she could be taken care of permanently. They were proud of Leonidas for everything he did to help Papa rune Aedrul. His strength and perseverance made the entire Venscothi line puff out their chests in appreciation and admiration. My mates and I wasted no time in completing our bond in wolf form as well as completing the Goddess of Fate ceremony. It was very intimate and quite pleasurable. It was interesting to say the least because we watched as our souls mom

    EMMA The pain from Asry’s shards slicing through me disappeared. Had I died? Nae did not say that was a possibility, but even she could not see every outcome. “No, you are not dead,” a melodic voice said. I opened my eyes and was in a beautiful field that was adorned with flowers of every color. My body was bathed in incredible warmth from the sun overhead. It was so peaceful, and my heart felt whole. It was a nice change from it feeling ripped apart, so there was that at least. There were wolves of all sizes sitting around, curiously watching me. It was a little creepy, but they looked happy. A beautiful woman stood between two of the larger wolves who looked as big as Krosthani. She was easily seven feet tall and had an ethereal glow around her. Her light brown hair cascaded in waves all the way to her waist, and her eyes were the most vibrant honey color which complemented her light bronze skin tone. “My name is Tylaphina, and it is because of you that I am free now. I was the

    KAI “Why would you do that?” I screamed at her. There was only one explanation of how I was unharmed when she was not. She used Nata’s magic on me when I did not even realize it. She saved me instead of herself. I had never been more furious with her than I was in this moment. Macario and Tilly needed me to move away from her, but I could not do it. I could not let her go. “We have to let them take care of her. She needs them. Come on,” Xander said. I could hear the same anguish in his voice that I felt. I placed a kiss to her lips before setting her back on the ground and standing up. He pulled me a little further away to where Zane was. We watched as they assessed her. They spoke lowly to one another, but none of us could hear it. ‘She used Nata’s magic to protect me,’ I told Xander. I collapsed to the ground under the weight of it all. It was me that should be there and not her. She always took every fucking risk, putting everyone else before herself, when she should have pro

    EMMA The success of tonight depended on my ability to play my part perfectly. Thankfully, that was one thing I excelled at no matter in which life or situation it was necessary. I steeled my shoulders and turned around slowly to see Asry’s smug face smirking at me as if he was the one in charge right now. As if he was the one who fooled me. Oh, how the mighty would fall. “Can’t say that I’m surprised that you’re here with mother bitch,” I said dismissively. “Ungrateful brat. Who do you think you are?” she hissed at me. I looked at Asry imploringly who just laughed and waved me on. He did not care about Lenora one damn bit. He probably was not wanting me to kill her, but I still would. This was something that I thought about extensively since we put this plan together. I needed to make him believe that I would consider being on his side. Then I would kill her so that she was out of our hair while also ensuring that his vessel was no more. This would solve one of the issues tonigh

    EMMA Couples danced around the room, twirling, and dipping their partners. There was a string quartet playing on the balcony that oversaw the room. Acoustics amplified the music throughout the room as if it was right beside each of us. Despite the mission of the night, it was great to be in my Handsome’s arms once again. I loved sharing moments like this with my amazing mates. They were near and dear to my heart. No matter how much time we spent together in life, it would never be enough. Kai’s copper and silver eyes peered into mine while a handsome smirk pulled at his lip because he was thinking the same thing. We learned how to read one another better than any mindlink ever could. ‘Anything?’ I linked out. One of the sigils ensured that there was no evidence of a mindlink between any of us. That was the only way that we could pull this off. It also kept an open line of communication among everyone while in this room. It was a bit awkward right about now because there were many

    EMMA The stress about tonight faded away the moment that my eyes locked onto my mates. I was never able to comprehend what I did right in life to have them willing to stand next to me no matter how crazy or bizarre the situation was. They were beside me every step of the way from that night at Olly’s until this moment as they pulled me between them. “You are absolutely stunning, love,” Xander said. He and Kai stalked around me to get the full view of my look. The matching low rumbles from their chests showed me that they certainly approved. “Doll…” He could not even finish his thought because his eyes flashed with an intense desire. “You get even more gorgeous every time my eyes look at you,” he said, caressing my cheek with his thumb. My body instantly flushed in response to his words. It was not certain that I would ever get used to everything they made me feel. I felt cherished, complete, immensely happy, and I felt loved most of all. All of those emotions flooded through my bo

    EMMA We all ate a late breakfast together. It was not a joyous occasion, but we tried to make it as lighthearted as possible. The mission tonight was weighing heavily on everyone’s mind. It was not something that we discussed or alluded to, but it was the gigantic elephant in the room. I was really trying to keep my emotions under control because my mates would feel them and worry. We could not change what would happen tonight because we all knew the truth. Asry was too dangerous to let live. He would never stop coming for me or my family. We had to take him out of the equation to ensure our safety. I had a feeling in my gut that Nae’s vision of me being in a coma-like state was going to happen. This was the one thing I had to keep from my mates because they would call all of this off right here and now. They already felt guilty enough about me being in harms way, but there was nothing that we could do about it. I would just bury that thought as deeply as possible so that it did not

    EMMA I woke up between my sleeping mates and smiled at them. They gave me the best ending to our night yesterday. That bath was perfect and incredibly relaxing. Today was going to be difficult on all of us but more so on them because they would be fighting against their instincts to protect me at all costs. Was I terrified to face Asry today? Absolutely. I would be a damned fool to feel giddy about facing an ultimate evil that wanted to enslave me as his Queen. However, that terror would solve absolutely nothing. For the time being, I would just shove that terror down as far as I could. Everyone needed to remain focused for today because our futures could finally begin once he was gone. A mischievous grin tipped my lips up as I looked between the two of them. Eenie…meenie… My gaze landed on Xander, so I carefully maneuvered myself until I was eyelevel with his glorious cock. I remembered the first time I saw it and how excited it made me. It still did to this day. I would never get
