160 - EMMA
EMMA
I slowly move my eyes from Joesph’s to Ali’s, to see the smile on her face. I shake my head.
“No, that is not what I was doing… Master Jeremiah was just keeping my education up…”
“Emma, what did Jeremiah have you learn?”
“Um… Vampire history, Royal ethics, Royal procedures, Vampire social ethics and status… Supernatural history, Supernatural species and Supernatural ethics… Vampire chain of command, Royal family history…”
My eyes go wide as I realise that maybe she was right. Everything he had me study had something to do with running the kingdom. Tears fill my eyes as I ask,
“But why? He didn’t start treating me differently until after my first shift.”
I snap my head up at Joesph as he says,
“He may not have known consciously that you were his beloved before your first shift, but something in

EMMA I jump as the phone on the desk rings; I lean over and pick it up,“Emma, here.”“Is this Queen Emma?” comes a soft female voice.I sigh. I can never get used to anyone calling me that. Without Master Jeremiah by my side, I feel like a fraud. I, however, answer her as my people see me as such.“Yes. What can I do for you?”“I am sorry to hear about Prince Jeremiah. My name is Queen Amelia, Queen Isabelle and Prince Jeremiah made an alliance and a business deal with my kingdom and me.” “Okay, well, I am still willing to honour the alliance they made with your kingdom if you would like to continue with it as well?”“Yes, I would. However, we will have to update it to our signatures instead of my parent's and Jeremiah’s.”“Oh, of course. Did you want me to travel to you?”“No,

EMMAI straighten and flatten my dress a little as the plane rolls to a stop and the stairs come down. I am surprised when a young looking female Vampire steps up to the door and then walks down the steps. She walks up to me and bows slightly, I smile and do the same as I say,“Queen Amelia, it is nice to meet you.”“It is good to meet you to and to finally put a face to the wonderful female I keep hearing about. Prince Jeremiah loved you very much.”“I guess he did, he just had a strange way of showing it.”“I was sorry to hear of his passing after he and his Mother had that little run-in. However, as per our alliance, I am here to support you and to fulfil the final part of our business deal.”“You mentioned a business deal on the phone, may I ask what that portrayed?”“Sure, just a moment.”She then turns and walks back up the stairs and

EMMAI am surprised when Odette comes forward a little and allows me to extend one of her canines just enough to place that small cut on my finger. She then steps back again as I place my finger in his mouth, he latches on and sucks. I look up at Amelia and she smiles as she says,“He hasn’t latched on and fed like that for over a month.”“Did you want to get some rest? I can look after this little fella. Or I can give you that tour?”“The tour would be nice.”“Okay, follow me.”With my finger still in Prince Adonis’s mouth, I lead Amelia out of the bedroom and through the sitting room and back into the hall. As she steps out behind me I ask,“Will Emberlynn be okay in there on her own?”I feel like a real idiot when three young female vampires then step up and bow to me and then to Amelia. The middle one says,“Is Princess Emberlynn asleep, you Highness?”“Yes, Milly. Emberlynn is asleep in one of the cribs in the main bedroom. We are taking Adonis with us.”Her eyes seem to widen as

EMMA I rise early that evening and as I feed Adonis; I ring my brother.“Alpha Samuel, here.” “Hey, bro.”“Emma… Is everything okay? Do you need me there?” I laugh, as I say, “No, everything is fine. I just met a Vampire Queen that Master Jeremiah and his mother made an alliance with…”I don’t miss his growl at the fact that I still call Jeremiah Master, but I can’t help it. He was and always will be my Master.“Okay, is she a threat?” “I’m not sure. I don’t think so. She saw our exchange program and was wondering if you would consider meeting with her to maybe…”“I would have to meet her. The one I did with Jeremiah was for you, not him. It was to bring you home… Not that, that worked…” “I will visit soon. I w

EMMA I spend the next few nights split between Queen Amelia and my normal duties throughout the castle and kingdom, as I thought it would be good for her to see how everything ran even without me moving through the kingdom or castle.Amelia and the twins were due to be on the plane just before dawn to return to their kingdom. We arranged to meet in my office to make any changes and resign the alliance. I carried Adonis with me as I entered my office. I had Finn place a small portable crib in my office for Adonis so I could monitor him while I did some of the mountains of paperwork that goes with being a Royal.I had been in my office for about an hour when there was a knock on the door. I lift my head and say,"Enter..."I smile as Amelia walks in with Emberlynn in her arms, but I then frown as she is followed in by another male vampire that I didn't know and he closes the door behind him. As I am in here on my own, a shiver of fear runs through me as I know that I am no match agains
My Master! My Mate! 166 - EMMA
EMMA I was expecting it to take longer, but it didn’t take Finn and Ali to organise and set up for the changing and crowning ceremony. They set up a stage in the middle of town and called a full kingdom gathering for the next evening so that Queen Amelia could be on the plane home just before dawn. I wake up the next evening and take care of Adonis’s needs and then get ready for the gathering. As I am standing off to the side of the stage, I am not sure if I can do this, yes they all like me and have all benefited from what I have done but that does not mean that they will agree with me being crowned their Queen and then accept Adonis on top. That could be asking too much of them. I wait for everyone to settle before walking up onto the stage with Benjamin a step behind me. I walk to the front and stand next to Finn as he says, “Welcome! As you know, Prince Jeremiah visited the Bhampair kingdom and entered an agreement and the result of that agreement is Princess Emberlynn and Pri

THIRD PERSON Emma snaps out of her memory when she hears Benjamin hiss and sees him step closer to her so that he is now only an inch away from her and slightly in front of her. She looks up at the males approaching and takes a deep breath before standing up straight, then slightly stepping around Benjamin and stepping forward, much to Benjamin’s annoyance. With Benjamin just behind her, she stops and waits for Elder Elio and his son Colter to stop in front of her. Elder Elio smirks as he says, “Now that was even easier than I thought it would be… See Emma, you are weak just like you have made this kingdom weak, just as I thought you would…” Emma is puzzled at how it was so easy for him to enter the kingdom, but doesn’t let it show as she smirks at him, making his falter just a little. He doesn’t understand why she is not cowering in front of him and his males. He can’t understand how she can stand there with her head held high when she was such a little lamb when he left. Emma st

(This memory will cover the next couple of chapters and will mostly play out as it happened in Emma's POV, but I will include the other main characters' POVs in places I feel they need to be included.)EMMA*** MEMORY ***I am in my office with Adonis in his portable crib, doing some paperwork. I look up at the knock on my door and smile as Samuel walks in,“What are you doing here? I wasn’t expecting you until next week.”“The family wants to meet you…”“I know and I want to meet them, but I have just been busy. I didn’t realise that there was so much work to being a leader to anyone, let alone the Queen to an entire kingdom.”“Emma, it has been a few months now since your crowning… Besides, you need to come and check on the progress of the training in the pack. Make sure it is to your liking…”I lower my eyes and
