JEREMIAHI quickly get out of bed, loving the sound of my name on her lips once more. I move into the bathroom and set the shower running before answering."I'm in the shower mother, be out in a minute."I quickly wash as much of Emma's scent off of me as I can, which is getting harder and harder to do as I spend more and more time touching and holding her, but I am only doing it because it is my mother, otherwise I love her scent all over me.I then walk into the closet and dress. I then walk out of the closet and, as I walk out of my room, I shut the door behind me. I smile as my mother turns from the window and walks over and up to me. I give her a soft gentle kiss on each of her cheeks as I say, "Mother! What a surprise! Was there something you needed?" "Yes, your birthday is in three days and I am holding a massive celebration for you..." "But mother, I am getting too old for these birthday parties..." "Nonsense. You are never too old to celebrate your birthday. Besides, you
JEREMIAH I don't bother with a towel. I bend down to pick up my pants and then as I leave the bathroom; I bend down, picking up my shirt. I then head into the closet and find my training gear.Both Finn and I made sure this time that the warrior we had looking over Emma was someone that couldn’t be bought in any way and respected his job down to the finest of details. His assignment and his only assignment was Emma. It took a little while, but I also made sure that Emma trusted him as well.Emma hasn’t been attacked by anyone since Norman and Nathan, but I would rather she be safe than have to go through any of that again. As Emma is just coming out of the bathroom as I exit the closet, as I pass her, I say, "Your learning books for today are on the chaise under the window. Make sure Benjamin is with you when you leave to clean and return as soon as you are finished. I will still test you when I return at dawn." "Yes. Thank you, Master Jeremiah." I don’t really like it but I allow
JEREMIAHThey both take a deep breath, Joesph just smiles as Finn looks at me with a slight smile but instead of saying what I know he wants to, he says,"Jeremiah, we still need to go over some of the security patrols and protocols before your mother's celebration starts later tonight..."I start walking down the hall toward my father's office before I tell them to get lost and re-enter my chambers and lose myself in Emma's body for the next few hours. It doesn't take us long to get to my father's office, which will be mine soon. I open the door, walk in, head over to and sit down at the desk.I look at the paperwork in front of me that has all the security patrols and protocols laid out in detail on them and sigh. I snap my head to Joesph as he asks,"So, will Emma be joining in on the celebration tonight?"I hiss low at him as I hadn't decided if I was letting Emma go, and after everything that happened, I still hadn’t told Finn the full truth about Emma. He knows her as Em and tha
JEREMIAHI don’t want to attend this celebration, especially after what Emma was brave enough to do to me this morning. I want to explore it more with her, but if I don't go, then I will have my mother on my back and banging down my door with suitor after suitor on her arm.Tomorrow evening, I am planning on taking Emma into the town. I want to know if my people take to her and will eventually accept her as their Queen. I make my way back to my chambers so that I can get ready. I open the door and I am not surprised when I enter and am met with the sight of Emma sitting under the window reading the new novel I picked up for her.I knew she loved to read but to start with I was only giving her the books that she needed to learn from but I realised once we were at the cabin and what she was to me that she may need just something a little more. I also didn't miss the novel she happened to pick up and read while we were there.She puts her book down and stands as soon as she sees me. I sm
JEREMIAH I open the door to find Joesph, standing on the other side of it. He bows, "Your mother sent me as, like always. You are running late..." "I am ready. I just had to take care of something first." He takes a deep breath as I exit my chambers and smiles. We then start down the hall heading to the ballroom. When we are halfway there Joesph asks, "So, have you claimed her yet?" "No, I can't... Not until after my coronation. Knowing my mother if she knew about Emma before my coronation then she would make her a blood slave and as soon as my mother found out that she has Alpha blood she would lock her in her room and allow no one but herself to indulge in her... No, I have to be King to protect her until I can change mothers law of no werewolves in the kingdom." "Well, you need to be more careful than as you are smelling more and more like her..." I know, as I am around her more and more, the bond between us is getting stronger, her wolf’s mate bond and the bond that forms f
EMMA I have been doing everything that I would normally do; I was surprised and a little disappointed when the Master didn’t return after his birthday celebration. I was ready, after what I did and how it made me feel to see such pleasure on the Master's face, and then with what he did to me in the shower, I am ready to give myself to him. Odette is yipping and howling in my head at my decision to finally allow her to complete the mating and hopefully the marking. My excitement slowly turned into disappointment as the length of nights and days the Master hadn’t returned turned into weeks. I sit under my window reading one of my novels when I hear the door open. I look up and watch as the Master enters the sitting room. I was expecting him to do what he has been doing since my first shift, but something is different: he doesn't look at me, he doesn't approach and he doesn't kiss me like he has been doing as he heads straight into the bedroom. I put my book down and get up, following
THIRD PERSON Finn was surprised when Emma turned up at their chambers and then with what Emma had told him about Jeremiah having a vampiress.Finn knows something definitely is not right, as ever since Nathan and Norman attacked Emma he has barely let her leave his sight, he had only just started allowing her to go back to her cleaning schedule and that was only after she was comfortable with the new warrior Finn had assigned to her.Finn was confused when Jeremiah didn’t show up for any of the meetings they had planned, with either the vampire council he had put together to repair the castle or with Angie to work out ways to protect the staff once more and remind the castle guards and warriors that Angie has more power within the wall of the castle then they ever will.Finn had seen him around the castle but had been having trouble catching up with him. When he finally does catch up with Jeremiah doesn’t recognise the vampire that he finds.--------------JEREMIAH I smile a little
EMMA I woke early that evening and fold up the blanket I used and placed the book on top ready for the morning, knowing that I will not be able to stay within the Master’s chambers at least for the time being.I leave Finn and Ali’s chambers and head back to the Master’s. I quietly open the door and make my way through the sitting room, over to the bedroom. I open the doors quietly and then make my way into the closet, walking all the way into the back and slipping out of the nightdress and into a servant’s one.I then slip back out of the closet and through the bedroom. I glance at the bed and see that the vampiress is still sleeping, but the Master is not there. I look over at the bathroom and listen. I smile as I hear the shower running and then look over at the chaise at the end of the bed.I sigh as I see his towel still sitting there. I don’t think I just move over, pick it up, and then head into the b
