168 - EMMA
(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

My Master! My Mate! 169 - EMMA / SAMUEL
EMMA I still don’t remember much of my life with Samuel before our 7th birthday party and then a lot of what I do remember is the cold and dark from the cell Master Jeremiah kept me in and even when I was in his chambers it was always cold with only a small amount of light.As I got older, he allowed me a little more freedom to come and go as I pleased out of my cell but only within his chamber and then once I turned 18; he surprised me even more by allowing me to attend that celebration, dancing with him while everyone watched and then taking me somewhere private for my first shift.I didn’t know much about mates, but when Odette had come to me and said that Master Jeremiah was ours, it explained a little more about how and why I was drawn to him and even when he was punishing me I had always felt safe with him. At the time, I never knew why, but I never had the courage to ask him about it either.I could feel he felt it too
My Master! My Mate! 170 - EMMA
THIRD PERSONAfter Samuel mentions Norman, Benjamin allows Samuel to talk to Finn as he has to rein in his temper not only from what he was told about what Norman did, but her personal guard at the time was helping him.It had taken him a while to earn both Prince Jeremiah's and especially Emma’s trust to be allowed so close to her. Benjamin’s eyes then land on Emma’s sleeping form laying against Samuel. He then remembers the two days she had spent with him and his partner, Matt.Benjamin’s heart and chest then pull tight and he has to take a moment to remember to breathe. He turns away from Samuel as he remembers the short conversation he had with Matt before Queen Isabelle, had sent him out on an assignment.“You know she has done this on purpose, don’t you?”“Then don’t do it…”“Ben, Honey. I have to. It is part of my job and if you didn’t alre

EMMA I look around for our bags, but I don’t see them anywhere. I look over at Samuel and again he smiles.“Already at the packhouse…”“Arr… I hate it when you do that. Stop reading my mind…”Samuel puts his hand on his heart and fakes being hurt as he says,“Sis, you wound me… I would never. You actually asked where they were…”“Wait, no I didn’t…”“Yes, you did.”“No, I didn’t” “Yes, you did.”“Come on, you two… We are not going into one of those debates… Please let's move to the packhouse…”Finn huffs as both me and Samuel laugh and start walking, while still debating, as he leads us to the tunnels. We follow the tunnels until we get to a fork where Samuel says,“Okay, going to the right takes us to the packhouse and going left takes us to the barracks and the training field. So follow me and we will go to the packhouse where I have rooms set up for all of you, including a crib for Adonis.”As we walk down the tunnel and get closer to the packhouse, I have to ask,“Sam? Are our M

EMMAHe then surprises me as he closes the gap between us wrapping his arms around my waist pulling me to him and taking a deep breath before laughing as he picks me up and spins me around, saying,“It’s okay big sis, you are back now and we can make up for everything that you missed…”It takes a moment but I then start to laugh along with him until there is a small cry from the monitor on the ground next to where I had been kneeling. Marcus puts me back on my feet and says,“Your little one?”“Yes, Adonis. Did you want to come to meet him?”“Sure.”I pick up the monitor and we walk back to the packhouse and back to my room. I make sure that after we enter that the door is shut tight before moving to the bedroom and picking up Adonis. I place my finger into his mouth, and he sinks one of his small fangs into it and starts drinking.I then return to where Marcus is standing and waiting. I smile as I walk over to him and show him, my son. Marcus smiles and then looks around the room bef

EMMA He then runs back toward the house, shifting into his wolf once more. I look at Samuel and he chuckles.“His wolf Xander, he's very excitable at the moment. Our mother just had triplets, 2 more daughters, and another son.”My face must have fallen as a really bad feeling and thought passed through my head. Samuel is quick to say,“No, Em, Jeremiah was not one of the fathers… And our mother and fathers were not trying to replace you in any way. Our fathers are Alpha’s that like to have sex with their mate and sometimes that is just what happens…”I go red at his description of our fathers with our mother and smile a little, as the other reason I am here is to be with Allayna while she gives birth to Samuel’s first lot of pups. I look at him and say,“Too much information, bro… Too much information.”He chuckles, “Come, let's go and see the others.”Nerves hit me again as we continue walking up to the house, this time as we walk in Dad, comes out wearing a pair of jeans and a blac
My Master! My Mate! 174 - EMMA
EMMA I looked at him, shocked, as I now remembered that this house was for our Alpha family only. No one else was allowed to stay. Tears fill my eyes as I look at them and whisper,“You would allow them to stay here? You would change things for them to stay here?”I make a guess, that the male I see approaching through my tears must be Daddy N. He places his hand on my cheek,“Of course, we would make the changes you needed, we know what your position is with the vampires and we know that you need that little more protection so yes we are willing to allow them to stay so that you can be close to us.”I smile up at him, and he then leans down and places a soft kiss on my forehead. He then steps back and looks at Samuel.“If Allayna hasn’t gone into labour, I’m sure your mother will have breakfast ready for about an hour and a half before dawn…”He turns and looks
My Master! My Mate! 175 - SAMUEL / EMMA
SAMUEL I felt a little queasy when I felt the pain come from Allayna and then saw the liquid gush from her over the bed and drip onto the floor. I then stood there in a little shock and was surprised when I saw Benjamin hit the floor. I moved around the bed and crouch down to check on him just to make sure he was okay.Once I know he is just fine, I get back to my feet and sway a little, but manage to keep myself upright and my dinner in my stomach. I look to the door as it opens and in walks Mother, holding Adonis, being followed by Finn. I had a feeling that both Finn and Benjamin wouldn’t leave Emma’s side. She is the Queen of their kingdom, after all, and they don’t trust anyone else with her protection.I watch as Mother walks in and gives Adonis to Emma, who then places him on her shoulder. I am not surprised when I see her flinch and then go and sit down. Mother walks over to Allayna’s side and Finn crouches down, shaking his head as he picks Benjamin up off the floor and plac
My Master! My Mate! 176 - EMMA
EMMA My smile falls as I watch the tears slide down his cheeks. When he doesn’t answer me, I reach up, ignoring the slight burn in my hand as I wipe away the next tear and say,“Hey, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean…”“It’s okay Emma, it's not your fault you don’t know…”“What do you mean, I don’t know... Benjamin, what haven’t I been told this time?”I say, trying to lift his spirit just a little, but it doesn’t work. He then sighs as he says,“Just after the failed bonding and coronation ceremony, Queen Isabelle sent Matt on a mission. We both knew why she did it and we both knew that it was a suicide mission. However, we also knew that his not going would be worse. Queen Isabelle didn’t take kindly to disobedience or failure, as you know…”“Ben, where is Matt?”More tears leave his
