Emily,

Spending time with the children was a joyful experience. I noticed that my brother and the others were occupied, leaving only Kane and me to play with the kids. We couldn't devote the entire day to them due to our busy schedules, but it was delightful to roll around in the dirt and have fun together.

Kane took on the role of entertaining the children, allowing them to do my makeup and capturing pictures of the moment. I made a mental note to return the favour and make him the subject of our next play session.

It had been quite some time since I felt so liberated and carefree. Kane willingly shouldered my burdens, and I was immensely grateful for his support. I just hoped that our bond would endure the test of time.

Frankly, I no longer cared about Jake's whereabouts. His disappearance seemed like a fortunate turn of events. Even if he had been present, I don't believe he could have solved our problems. I had already made up my mind to initiate divorce proceedings without delay.

    Kane,Emily's heartfelt plea to the members of the Shadow Moon deeply moved me. It became even more evident to me that Jake's despicable actions were like the layers of an onion, continuously unravelling, and Emily had yet to accept the fact that it was not her fault.I could sense that she still blamed herself for it all, and it would take a considerable time for her to grant herself forgiveness for bringing Jake home and exposing her community to his malevolence.I sincerely hope that David and his team can track down that vile individual so that I can personally confront him for the immense suffering he inflicted upon Emily and the Howlers.If, by some chance, he managed to escape with ill-gotten gains, I will ensure his departure from our world will be slow and agonising, ensuring that he experiences excruciating pain.As she delivered her speech, I observed a noticeable shift in the expressions of my fellow pack members. Their gazes softened towards Emily, and I hoped that they co

    Emily, I could not believe it had finally happened. As Kane established the connection between us, a feeling of freedom and relief washed over me and Nia. Other than my bond with Jake, nothing connected me to him anymore. As Kane swore me in, he gazed at me lovingly with determination and resolve in his eyes. He was just as eager for the connection as I was, and I blessed the moon for him. Kane had swept me off my feet, taking away my burden and sorrow, giving me hope and a home. I could never repay him, but I blessed the moon for him. Accepting his bond, I promised to remain loyal and faithful and follow him to the end. He had absolutely nothing more to prove to earn my trust. Standing beside him, I felt honoured. Kane was a man that did not tell lies, always said what he meant; he was a man that kept his promises. Asking me to remain by his side during the ceremony was an incredible honour, and it showed his unwavering intentions towards me. I stood beside him as his Luna and wa

    Kane, Emily and I had a wild morning. I have wanted to take her like that since I saw her. When we first made love, I had to be careful because I was unsure what she liked, but she had surprised me. The blowjob was terrific, and when she gave me a show of her touching herself, I knew she was just as wild as I could be. Taking her on the floor the way I did was terrific, and the things we said in the heat of passion were amazing. Emily wholeheartedly wanted me. I could tell from her body, her response and how Nia constantly flashed. It encouraged me to do more. I never knew we would connect this deeply so soon, but it seemed the only way to go from where we were was forward. I had a lot of kinky things I would want us to try, just the two of us, and I somehow believed she would be up for it. We lay in bed spent. The Integration ceremony did not drain us, but the multiple orgasms did, and I was glad for it. Holding her in my arms, I drifted into a peaceful sleep, fully satisfied and

    Emily,Kane worked diligently into the night, solely for my benefit. I overheard him speaking on the phone with various people, tirelessly seeking buyers for our harvest when it arrived. The level of support he showed was truly heartening. Such kindness and assistance were entirely new to me, and I deeply appreciated it. Kane stood in stark contrast to Jake, and I couldn't help but question why I had ever been drawn to someone so unpleasant as Jake.Confronting the consequences of Jake's actions filled me with hatred toward him. I used to worry about his whereabouts and well-being, but now, I found myself hoping he would remain missing. When I told Kane not to bother investigating Jake's location, I meant every word. I simply didn't care about that despicable person anymore. Witnessing another man's genuine care and success made me realise the foolishness of falling into Jake's manipulative trap.Honestly, I wished Jake had fallen victim to his own enemies and would never resurface.

    Emily,Kane strolled into the room, exuding an air of relaxation and excitement. As soon as I spotted him, I rose from my seat and greeted him by the door. A warm smile adorned his face as he looked at me, his eyes reflecting the eagerness of his wolf, who knew my intentions all too well. Taking my hand in his, he playfully urged me to twirl around, curious to see what I was wearing."Ah, it's a mystery," he remarked with his deep, husky voice, and I could already feel the familiar trouble brewing inside me. This man had a way of affecting me like no one else, and my self-control seemed to vanish in his presence.Guiding him towards the elegantly set table for two, Kane surveyed the arrangement with admiration."Turning the tables, huh?" he teased, a reminder of that fateful night when he had moved swiftly, eager to formalise our relationship.As I reached for the bottle, his hand beat me to it."Let me serve," he insisted, and I watched him pour the wine into our glasses before once a

    David, For quite some time, we had been diligently investigating Jake's whereabouts. Alpha Kane surprised us with his kindness and genuine support. It was truly heart-wrenching to comprehend the immense suffering inflicted upon us by Jake. Witnessing the abundance of aid available to us now that we were no longer Howlers made me acutely aware of the extent of Jake's destructive influence. My resentment towards that despicable man grew even stronger.However, I held no blame for Emily and the choices she had made. Anyone could have fallen victim to such a manipulative and unpleasant person. I deeply admired my sister for her unwavering strength. The pressure she endured would have broken most women, but she remained resolute.It almost felt like a divine intervention when Kane came into our lives. His support seemed too good to be true, but it became our lifeline, something for which I am forever grateful. Kane not only restored our lives but also gave us hope for a better future. Desp

    David,Throughout the drive to Fox Village, I was filled with nerves, unsure of what awaited us there and what revelations we might uncover. Although I felt a sense of excitement that finally, there was a development, I couldn't shake the fear of what it could mean for Emily if Elsa's claims turned out to be true.The possibility that Jake might actually be Billy meant that Emily had been unknowingly married to a complete stranger for seven years of her life. I couldn't help but wonder how she would react to such a shocking truth, especially considering all the sacrifices and losses we had endured together.Nevertheless, the prospect of a break in the stagnant silence that had lingered since Jake disappeared was a welcome change. I held a strong hope that Elsa would provide the answers we sought and that it would lead us to something meaningful.Upon our arrival at Fox Village, we relied on the GPS to guide us to Wilson Drive.

I couldn't wait to leave all our worries behind and embrace the joys of life together.As the night passed peacefully, Emily and I slept soundly. In the morning, I left her still sleeping and attended to some pack matters. We would be away for a week, so it was prudent to ensure everything was in order before our departure. Although I knew Carlton was more than capable of handling things, certain matters required my personal touch.As I entered my office, to my surprise, Celeste was already at her desk. It was before the usual resumption time, and her presence caught me off guard."Why are you here so early?"

    Emily Three Months Later. The autumn breeze brushed gently against my skin, carrying a promise of change as Kane and I stood before the restored Howler settlement. It was a moment that bore the fruits of relentless dedication and tireless effort. The once-devastated land now stood as a testament to our resilience, a beacon of hope for a brighter future. Today marked the culmination of our journey, as we handed over the keys to my brother, David, who was about to reclaim what had been stolen from us. As David approached, his face a canvas of mixed emotions, I could sense the anticipation and thrill radiating from him.

The world seemed to hold its breath, the fate of my life and the life of my unborn child hanging in the balance.As Jake stepped away from me, people carved out a space in the clearing where the initial struggle between Kane’s men and Jakes’ rogues had ensued to create a makeshift arena for the impending clash.

    KaneThe air was tense, thick with a blend of anger and confrontation. Jake's accusing eyes bore into me, his voice carrying the weight of betrayal as he accused me of stealing his mate. The accusation hung in the air like a dark cloud, and I felt my own anger rising, a primal urge to defend what I believed was rightfully mine."I did not consent to the severance," Jake's words cut through the charged atmosphere, his voice dripping with bitterness. "You've broken the law, Kane."My fists clenched instinctively, a fierce desire to lash out and silence him. But before I could even take a step forward, Carlton's firm grip was on my arm, holding me back. My friend's voice was a low, urgent whisper in my ear, "Do not advance, Kane. Look around; there are witnesses now. Don't give them a reason to bear witness against you."My gaze swept over the gathering crowd, the residents of Gaines Village and even the corrupt chief himself, all drawn by the spectacle of our clash.

The veil of loyalty Carlos had worn was torn asunder, and the weight of his crimes hung heavy in the air. It was a stark revelation of how he had collaborated with Jake, locking away his conscience and planning to vanish under the cover of darkness, carrying the spoils of his treachery with him. The pack members' anger roared like wildfire, their collective voices demanding retribution.But amid the clamour for justice, the urgent reality remained that Emily's safety was paramount. Carlos's guilt would be dealt with, but my focus was unwaveringly fixed on finding her. With a determined grip, I took hold of Carlos, forcing him to his knees, my fingers tight around his throat. The anger in me surged, a visceral response to the harm he had inflicted upon me by abducting my mate."Tell me where she is," I growled, the intensity of my stare piercing into him, demanding the truth he could

The anticipation in the air was palpable, a tension that crackled like electricity. Richard rode at my side, his gaze a blazing fire of determination – the rightful alpha of Samyspring, resolute in his quest to reclaim what had been unjustly taken from him by his best friend.

The urgency to find her pulsed through my veins, and I knew that every passing moment decreased the chances of a safe resolution. After Carlton dropped me off at the Alpha quarters, I wasted no time. I had to get to the bottom of this swiftly.Brian and Claus were on standby for the impending interrogation of Michelle. I was determined to uncover the truth about who orchestrated this intricate web of deception. I needed to understand why Emily had been left vulnerable, who had manipulated the situation to prevent anyone from accompanying her to the lake house. My suspicion had landed heavily on Michelle, who knew Emily's routine too well.Hurrying into my room, I took a quick shower and dressed in simple attire. Time was a luxury I couldn't afford to indulge in. Emily's safety hung in the balance, and I had to act decisively. Linking up with Doctor Karen, I inquired about my mother's condi

His presence was a twisted reminder of a past I had fought hard to overcome.Jake's expression twisted with a mixture of anger and hurt. "You think you have it all figured out, don't you? You have no idea what I went through. I loved you, Emily, and I still do," He said, and I could not believe this dude.A fire blazed in my eyes. "Love? You don't know the first thing about love. All you know is manipulation and betrayal." I replied.He clenched his fists, his voice trembling. "I could have killed you the moment I saw that mark on your neck – another man's mark."
