CooperWell, he's on his knees, begging for another chance. I'm spending time with family this week for the holiday. I'll try to update daily but there may be some days I won't have time to write.

Shattered Bonds Chapter 50: Rich
She wants me to reject her. She wants to leave me. I can’t breathe. I can’t….I can’t get air into my lungs. As I drop to my knees, willing to do whatever it takes to get my mate back, I see her look of absolute shock. “Richie, what are you doing?” She whispers. From the corner of my eye, I see Cayd and Lily’s look of shock. I’m not sure how to read Aolis’s expression, resolve maybe? I focus on my mate. “My father told me that if I loved you, if I really loved you, then I should humble myself in front of you. Only you, Emlyn. You are the only person in my life that I would get on my knees for. You are the only person I am willing to give up everything in my life, to have. You and our son. And I did. I walked away from my title. I walked away from the pack, because nothing in my life makes sense without you, Emlyn. The lyrics of that song you sent me? They were like the story of my life. The woman does make the man, Emlyn. I was stronger, better when I had you by my side. Without yo

I don’t know what is going on with this council, I need to speak to my mother about it. But for now, there is a room full of people who I haven’t seen in months, family and friends that have never met my son. Before we’re even out of the courtroom, my mother has taken Leander from Cayd and is cooing over him, Aunt Angel right beside her. “Thank you, Emlyn.” That’s all Richie has time to say before we’re swept into hugs and congratulations. “Are you back, Emlyn.” My father asks me. “Yeah, Dad. I’m back.” He glances over at Richie. “Want to talk about it?” “Maybe tonight we can catch up. I’m going stay a night or two in Safe Haven, letting you and mom spend some time with Leander before heading over to Canyon Ridge.” My father lifts his eyebrow at me. “Yes, I think we need some time together this evening.” From there, I get hugs from Emerson and Leana before getting scooped up by Cohen. “So, does this mean I no longer have an acting Luna?” He asks me as he puts me down from the s

I can’t watch them leave, so after tearing myself away from Emlyn and Leander, I walk as fast as I can to my car. I’m about to pull out when Cayd jumps into the passenger seat beside me. “Hang on, big bro. I’m going with you.” I turn and look at him. “I’m going back to Shadow Falls.” “Yeah, me too.” He says, giving me a typical Cayden smirk. I shake my head and start the car. It’s good to have Cayd back. He catches me up on our way back to Shadow Falls. I’m shocked to learn how many different ways Emlyn has tried to break the Guardian bond and I’m thankful none of them worked. If any one of them had…I can’t even think about what would have happened if they had. I pull off a couple of exits before the exit to Shadow Falls. “Where are we going?” Cayd asks. “Emlyn and Little Leander need a new car, so I’m going to get one and take it to them tomorrow.” “Good. It’s about time you stepped up.” “It’s past time. But she’s willing to give me a chance to prove to her how serious I am,

I’m nervous to see Richie this evening. I’m not sure how to interact with him now. Everything used to be so easy for us, but now, it’s just awkward. I’m helping out in the kitchen, making sure that the meals will be ready for the pack when I see Emerson heading to the front door. I look at the time and I know that Richie is here. I walk out in time to hear the end of their conversation. “Emlyn invited me for dinner, Emerson.” “I’m aware. She’s willing to give you another chance, Richard. Do us both a favor and don’t fuck it up. I won’t forgive you a second time.” “I have no intention giving Emlyn or anyone else a reason to doubt my love and commitment to her ever again.” “Welcome, Richie. Come on in.” I step up and say. I’ve had enough of my brother’s Alpha posturing. I invited Richie here and while I understand his need to protect me, my issues with Richie are just that. Mine. “Leander is sleeping right now, but he should be up soon.” I gesture for him to come inside, and he gi

After dinner, Emlyn puts Leander down. Or, she was trying to before Aunt Grace came in to hold him, stealing him away and telling us not to rush back. “Maia was desperate for a run after having each of you.” She tells Emlyn. “Go. Enjoy your run.” It’s been a long time since Finley has run with Morrigan. She is thrilled to be back in her wolf form as she races around the pack lands yipping and howling her happiness. Each time she howls, I hear the answering howls from not only her pack, but mine and Cohen’s as well. Morrigan pushes Finley and we’re running hard to keep up with her. When she’s finally had her fill, she slows down, finding the lake on the Safe Haven territory and stopping to drink, panting happily. Finley, I can tell, is just as tentative about approaching Morrigan as I am about approaching Emlyn. So he slowly walks toward her and when she turns and looks at him, he lays on his stomach and crawls over to her. She watches him but doesn’t snarl at him to stay away. She

When we arrive at Canyon Ridge, I let Richie get Leander out of the car seat as I walk up to Cohen who is waiting for me. “Rich isn’t going to try to fight me for you, is he?” He whispers in my ear as we hug. I chuckle. "I don’t think so, he’s on his best behavior right now." Richie walks up behind me. “Cohen.” He nods his head in greeting. “Hey Rich. Long time, no see.” I frown, they just saw each other a couple days ago at the council meeting. “Here, take Leander, I’ll get your bags.” Richie says. “Need some help, Rich?” Cohen asks him. “She’s moving in Cohen, what do you think?” Cohen snickers before turning to me. “You’re on my floor, last room on the right.” He says before moving off to help Richie with my bags. I walk in, saying hello to everyone. They all seem very excited for me to be here. I’m excited to be back in a Luna role. It feels right and since I was meant to be Richie’s mate, I was also meant to be a Luna, so it makes sense. I head upstairs, chatting with so

“How do you want to handle this, Emlyn?” Richie asks me. He had told me that Gwen was in the cells, where she has been since he realized what she had done. “Is she still alive?” I ask. “Unfortunately.” Richie replies. “Let’s call an all-pack meeting at sundown. She didn’t just hurt us, Richie. She hurt your entire pack.” “Our pack.” He clarifies. “This was meant to be your pack too, Emlyn.” I don’t argue. “You should consider inviting the warriors, sprites and omegas that left because of her. She hurt all of them as well.” “I’ll call Emerson right now and ask him to let them know.” He pulls a phone from his back pocket and calls my brother. I go to move off his lap, but he holds me in place. When he’s finished, he mind links his patrols to let them know that we may have visitors, our previous pack mates, this evening. He then sends an all-pack mind link, requesting everyone to meet in the training field at 5pm. I look at my watch. That gives me a few hours to get Leander settl

When I hear Gwen screaming for me, I feel the pull of the spell. I immediately go to Leander, holding him against me and taking a deep breath of his scent. Since he’s nursing so frequently, he constantly smells like bourbon-soaked peaches, sometimes it’s stronger than others. Right now, it’s strong and it’s exactly what I need to ignore the pull of the spell. I bury my face against his body, breathing deeply. It isn’t long before I feel a surge of power wash over me. Suddenly, it feels like a fog is lifted from my body. If I thought my son’s scent was strong before, it’s nearly overwhelming now. I can smell him clearly and Emlyn’s scent is all over him, her peach smell so much stronger than I’ve ever smelled it before. And I know that Gwen is dead. I breathe a sigh of relief as I stand up, heading down to see my mate. As I walk down the stairs, there is a lot of chatter from the pack members. It smells like Emlyn had the twins plan a feast, whether she meant it to be a celebration or

Shattered Bonds Epilogue: Quinn
Nineteen Years Later“Mom, why do we have to go to this Beta ceremony?” Genevieve, my daughter, one of the twins, asks.“It’s not a Beta ceremony, Gen. The vampires don’t have Betas, you know that,” I tell her.“They’re second in command, mother, that makes them Betas,” she argues.“And besides going to see your cousins take their place as the mates of Urien’s second in command, it will be a good opportunity for you to look for your mates.”Malin’s daughters, Kayleigh and Sasha, found their mate, Lorenzo, the son of Ennata and Demetrius. Demetrius had been Drake’s second in command until he decided to retire with Ennata and move to the city to help Xander and Maeve with the witches. Now Lorenzo is taking over as Drake’s second in command.“Mate or mates?” Marcella, the other twin asks.Unlike me and Malin, both of our twin daughters are identical twins. It caused a lot of worry for me and Malin while they were growing up, wondering what would happen if our daughters were mated to one p
Shattered Bonds Chapter 34: Emerson
Watching my mate on her birthday had been one of the best feelings in the world. I know every man in all three packs had hoped that she would be their mate. But she isn’t. She’s mine. All mine, forever. And tonight, I get to claim her in the last possible way, officially making her my Luna.Last night, we’d watched as Malin had taken her official place as Luna of the Canyon Ridge pack. It was special for Quinn, but I’ll admit to feeling jealousy when Cohen announced to everyone that Malin was carrying his pup. After finding out at Quinn’s birthday party that my sister, Emlyn, Quinn’s sister, Leana, and her sister-in-law Maeve were all pregnant, and now hearing that her twin is pregnant, I suddenly realize that I want a pup too.I’ve never given much thought to how many pups I want. I need an heir, and of course, I’d like to have a little girl that has Quinn’s sweet personality, but otherwise, I hadn’t thought much about it. Until now. Now I know that I want pups with Quinn. I don’t eve
Shattered Bonds Chapter 33: Quinn
I’m exhausted and pleasantly sore between my thighs, but I don’t care. I’m wearing my mate’s mark, wearing my new necklace, and it’s my birthday. Emerson skipped warrior training this morning to spend extra time with me. We’d finally fallen asleep and I’d slept soundly for a couple of hours laying on top of his body.I feel his fingers softly rubbing over my back.I grumble, knowing he’s trying to gently wake me up.“I don’t want to get up either, birthday girl, but we have a party to get to,” he says.I snuggle against him, not budging. He chuckles. “If you don’t get up, I’m going to take you again.”“Is that supposed to be a deterrent?” I ask him.“You must be sore, Quinn.”“Not that sore,” I say, looking up at him.His eyes darken. “Damn, you are one sexy woman, Quinn. And you look fucking incredible wearing my mark. You know what?” he asks, sitting up and lifting me as he gets off the bed and walks into the bathroom carrying me.“What?” I ask.“I want to take my mate while I look a
Shattered Bonds Chapter 32: Quinn
Emerson and I have been together every night for the past month. He’s tried every possible position, explored every inch of my body and found places that even I didn’t know I liked being touched. But tonight feels different. I can feel it in the air around us, feel it in him, and feel it in our wolves.“What does my sweet mate want for her birthday?” Emerson asks me.“You. Just you,” I say and he leans down, kissing me slowly and deeply, as I wrap my legs around his body.“Just me, not my mark?” he asks, his warm breath blowing against my ear and moving to my neck, making me shiver.“Having you means I get to wear your mark and I ge to put mine on you as well.”He growls as I lift my chin, exposing my throat to him. I feel his canines graze over my mate mark, the feeling of it so much more intense now that it’s my birthday.“Not yet,” he says, before flipping us over. “I thought my little Guardian might want to be in control on her birthday, to ride me any way she wants before sinking
Shattered Bonds Chapter 31: Emerson
The day has finally arrived, the day when I can leave my mark on my mate and it will finally, finally stay. I’ve been looking forward to this day for years, literally years, since the first moment that I recognized Quinn as my mate.Even though I know I can’t leave my mark until midnight tonight, I still wake my mate by sliding inside her. I look forward to my evenings with Quinn and waking up with Quinn. I make a point to see my mate throughout the day. Then nights and mornings are when it’s just us and I can be me and she seems to thrive on me being me. I was so terrified for so long that I would hurt her, that I’d scare her off, that it never really occurred to me to trust that the Moon Goddess would give me the exact mate that I needed to fulfill every dream and fantasy that I’ve ever had. But here she is, in my arms, screaming my name. Fuck, I love waking up to her body contracting around mine and my name coming from her mouth.Even though I’m behind her and we’re both laying on o
Shattered Bonds Chapter 30: Quinn
I love being in Emerson’s room. Well, it’s ours now. Going to bed at night is so much more enjoyable. And everything about Emerson has begun to fall into place. During the day, he still shows me affection, more than he used to, but it’s at night that he strips away his reserved side and gives me everything that he is. And what a man he is.Our first night, he was careful with me, in the sense that we didn’t have sex. But that didn’t mean that I didn’t have one of the most intense nights of my life, at least up until that point. I know my mate wants control, and I’m happy to give it, as long as he gives me what I want. Just to be sure, I ordered some sexy lingerie, wearing it every night, just so Emerson can rip it off me. It seems to be all he needs to let go. And oh wow, I’m not even sure I realized how many ways my mate could take me, but Emerson wasn’t kidding when he said he wanted to know all the ways he could make me come by my birthday. It’s like he’s on a mission and every nigh
Shattered Bonds Chapter 29: Emerson
I let her sleep about an hour before I wake her. We need to get ready to have breakfast with her sister and Cohen before we head back to our pack. I pull her into the shower with me, laughing at her sleepy grumpiness.“None of that or I won’t wake you up like that again,” I say to her.“I need coffee,” she pouts as I push her under the shower. “And how come you’re not exhausted?”“I didn’t have as many orgasms as you did,” I say smiling, exceedingly pleased with myself. I counted ten. I made my mate come ten times. Now, I need to see how I can increase that number.“You know, you called me greedy, but you’re awfully greedy when it comes to giving me orgasms,” she says as I wash her hair.“Are you complaining?” I ask, smiling at her.“Nope. I like that greedy side of you,” she says and I laugh, truly laugh.“And, I love seeing this happy side of you,” she says softly and I look down at her.“You did this. You make me this happy,” I say, kissing her nose.That seems to make HER happy and
Shattered Bonds Chapter 28: Emerson
I wake for the first time with my mate in my arms. I’m not sure I’ve ever slept through the night. It’s not that I don’t sleep, but I tend to toss and turn. I can tell that I didn’t move all night, my body, mind, and soul all at peace having this fascinating and incredible woman beside me.I look down at her, her white, blond hair spread out across my chest, a stark contrast to my dark skin tone. I’m not sure I expected her to give herself to me so completely. I kept Clint’s words of advice in my head, and he wasn’t wrong. Quinn giving me control over her perfect body, letting me taste her and fill her had been beyond anything I’d ever experienced, well, at least until I’d had my first orgasm inside her. I thought I’d died and gone to the Moon Goddess’ realm. Yeah, I know I’m going to want to taste and fill this woman every damn day. I can already tell that I’ll never, ever be able to get enough of her. And now, I’m excited to find all the ways I can dominate this body and to see what
Shattered Bonds Chapter 27: Quinn
There is something extremely attractive about Emerson being so dominant. I can tell he’s on the verge of losing control and the only thing keeping him in check is dominating my body. And oh, holy mother Moon Goddess, is he dominating my body.I’ve touched myself, found my own release many times in my life, but this…this is way beyond anything that I’ve ever made myself feel. And he hasn’t even moved past my breasts. I didn’t know it was possible to come just from your mate sucking your nipples, but I’m here to tell you, it is possible. At least if you have Emerson licking and sucking on them like they are the most incredible thing he’s ever put in his mouth.His hands are everywhere, his mouth is everywhere, and while I want to be a participant in this, our first of what I hope is many matings, he’s overwhelming my senses. On top of that, he seems to want and need control and I’m willingly giving it to him.When he commands me to say his name when I orgasm again, I feel heat flooding m
