Emma Grey

I should get some sleep now.

“Emma!” A loud voice suddenly booms through the roof, keeping me awake.

Well, maybe not.

The sounds of steps thunderously rumbled through the stairs as I braced myself, expectant for mom to return home. I shut my eyes tight, planning on disguising myself to sleep when a hand gently shook my shoulder. 

“Emma. Are you asleep?” A familiar whisper went through my ear. Hang on, I knew that voice.

I slowly opened my eyes; head turned to my back when Lina came into my view. Her eyes crystal with tears which had my brows knitted.

    Nathan Black “Mr. Black, there are some matters I need to attend to. Please, go ahead as I will follow along later.” My sudden utterance had caught father’s attention as he shot me a skeptical look. Ethan and Allan had long walked towards Sir Joshue’s house leaving me and father not far behind. We had reached the Solis Pack when a sight pulled me in as I stepped on the field. The brown locks graced through the winds had my chest bloom with colors, enchanted by the view. I struggled to keep my eyes on my father, unwilling to hint a single clue to not alert my father of her existence. Yet. “I see. Though, do ensure not to be late. You do know a great leader would never be late on any occasion. It is unacceptable.” A nod was all I gave in response to his leader's related talk. The ongoin

    Emma Grey “I need to leave for now. Though, I will meet you again when the meeting is over.” My eyes gazed on his retreating figure, wishing he could stay longer. His gentle smile still lingers in my mind. It had been a startlement even to myself at how much I burst my tears in front of him. I had swore to myself not to. I have gone through it for how many years, surely I could just smile through the pain. However, when his lavender scent basked in mine, and the sight of him appeared in front of my very eyes, I couldn't help it. It feels as though my body had the mind of its own as my feet rushed towards his embrace. It never occurred to me that I would meet h

    Nathan Black The meeting room was situated in a room next to Sir Joshue’s office. As to why they decided to build an office in their house was also a wonder. Mayhaps it was easier to keep the secret within a small range of people. I have been in the room for half an hour and during that time, it was filled with silence. No one had dared to say a word. The atmosphere was suffocating with my rage, my mind whirled to the possibilities on who could've caused her such pain. Gratefully, Ethan had elbowed my side with curiosity filling his eyes. It successfully brought back my conscience again. “What had got you so worked up, bro. I almost drowned in your wrath just now

    Emma Grey “I am impressed. You surely knew you did wrong. Baring yourself in front of me like this, the little worthless Emma.” A sinister grin falls on her lips. I should've known I wouldn't be this fortunate. How deluded could I be? “Mom…” My lips quivered. Cold sweat washed over me. How can I let it slip through my mind that mom could possibly be here. This is the one place she would be if not elsewhere. If only I wasn't blinded by the temporary comfort encast upon me. Then, I could have used my brain better and saved myself from these circumstances. Why am I so foolish?

Where the heck are you going?” Allan heralded out for me, irregardless of that, I couldn't let myself decelerate. I need to be there fast. “Damn it. Just follow him.” Ethan and Allan had run after me. I could hear the heavy steps vibrating on the ground as they slowly advanced nearer and nearer towards me. Father was probably left behind dumbfounded by the whole situation. Though, I will notify him later about this when I'm sure she is safe. As of now, my mind only fills with her. &nb

His eyes had been focused forward, giving me an opportunity to take him in .My eyes trailing to his full brows, the mole under his black dazzling eyes and his sharp jaws before it falls to his lips.

    Nathan Black ‘Thank you for being here.’ It was captivating. How her brown locks shimmer under the radiant sky. How her eyes twinkle gleefully while having my heart knocking on my chest. How her beautiful smile gracefully makes its way through her lips. It all was so mesmerizing that I had to avert my eyes from her. Dazzling even. The warmth radiating off her was addicting, yearning for me to be as close to her. “Sure.” The tone must have sounded cold for her, seeing as she was about to leave. A feeling of loneliness attached itself

    Emma Grey “Were you expecting anyone, mom?” Lina enquired, breaking the quietness in the room. She shook her head, frown deepen with her eyes sealed to the door. It had my stomach twisted in fear. Who could it be? Before I realized it, Nathan had already made his way to the door with his brunette friend not far behind. My mouth opened, attempting to stop him when nothing came out of it. What is he doing? It could be someone dangerous. What if– Sir Joshue and my mom suddenly came into my thoughts. What if it was both of them? What if mom already told Sir Joshue about what had happened.

Feeling the chills of the morning air seeping through my thin nightgown, I hug myself tight.It was still early. The sky was navy blue, not yet letting the moon hide itself for the sun to rise.My eyes trained towards the lake, calm from any alive movement. Most of the living must've still been in a deep slumber, lulled by the peaceful dawn.Good thing Nathan had chosen a house with a magnificent view, enchanted my eyes with the beauty of its nature.A fond smile slipped through my lips, reminiscing the early days I had been in the Luna Pack five years ago.The first time I had met his father, it was rather awkward to say. Though, it all went better after Nathan's appointment ceremony, as he showed him the ring.The silver band of his late wife, the one he must've missed to the moon and beyond.

    Emma Grey"Are you sure this is all you need?" My eyes wandered across the luggage, particularly searching for any missing necessities to fill in. "Let me see. The toiletries are here, my shirts and my pants are here…" I patted the neatly folded clothes, before turning my head towards Eva. "What else do I need?" "Hmm… Maybe some snacks for traveling? I'm not sure either."I bit my inner cheek, contemplating if I should bring along my blanket. Truthfully, I never knew preparing all this stuff was somehow stressful. Formerly, we were strictly forbidden to leave the area if it wasn't permitted by Sir Joshue. Thus, it didn't ever latch into my mind for me to prepare the stuff for leaving.Now that I had to clear out my wardrobe, I don't even know what else I should bring along with me. I did have to live there for a long period of time in the Luna Pack. Luna Pack.I still can't believe it.He invited me. Nathan invited me! I almost squealed the moment he laid out the invitation. To

    Emma Grey"Nathan, are you home?" I hollered.A sudden nudge from Lina had me facing her as quick. My knuckles instinctively stilled, hovering the wooden door. My brows were narrowed as I hushed, before huffing a breath, calming the anxiousness pulled in my heart. "You startled me, idiot."She snickered apologetically, "Oh, sorry. I forgot you're on your toes today." She placed her palm on my back, rubbing it in an attempt to calm me down. "Relax, I was just wondering if they're really in there or with Eva."I exhaled a breath, accepting every comfort I could possibly receive in this moment. It had me on edge since this morning. If Lina hadn't mentioned her conversation with Ethan regarding the matter, it would surely be completely far from my mind.Not when she told me they would be leaving anytime now, that their father had deemed for their return.Really, how can it slip out of my mind that Nathan would be leaving anytime sooner. The past days had been the happiest I've ever been

    Nathan Black"Father had called, again. We need to head back later this week, Nat." A hum left my throat. My head tilted on the headrest of the velvet sofa lazily, finding the ceiling rather interesting than the whole conversation.Even my eyes had almost fluttered closed sleepily with how cool it was inside the guest house, seeing the sunlight almost burnt the bird's nest to dust just outside the window."Nat, do you hear me?" Ethan's voice once again greeted my ear drum, sounding more urgently. I glanced at him sidedly before darted my attention again on the white ceiling.Huh, weren't there supposed to have four lamps? One, two, three… Ah, there's four. I knew I counted them right–"Nathan!" He hollered incredulously. I heaved a sigh heedlessly. "I know."It wasn't the first time father had sent those from our pack, urging for our return. It had been several days past since the hearing, so most of them, including Nico had already returned to Luna territory.Though, he was quite

    Emma Grey"Cause we're more than just a pack."Her eyes flew across the crowds, before it found mine. With her precious smile, she muttered, "We're family."I felt my lips trembled, overwhelmed with emotions meant behind the words she had spoken.To protect one another, regardless of our wolf and gender, be it a Beta, an Omega or even an Alpha. We should've done this long ago, away from the nonsense idea Sir Joshue had instilled in our mind. And like a puppet, we had dumbly followed his false teaching, without even complaining about the damage he'd done to each one of us.That we had seen our own people sacrificed with our own eyes, and yet, not once had anyone ever spoken aloud of it.If we could change it all together, I'm certain there would be a brighter day for the future of the Solis.Just then, her eyes flickered to the whole crowd, hardening her gazes yet again. "Now, to begin the said hearing, I'll now present to you all of the criminal offenses," She glanced on him, disgus

    Nathan BlackPredictable.The corner of my lips lifted, amusement laid itself within my eyes. It was as if he was extremely desperate for the hearing to lack success, carrying the exact same act I had fortunate he would do.The commotion was left unblase as Eva's eyes caught mine. Good thing we met this morning."Now." I mouthed towards her, averting my sight towards Joshue. It would be entertaining to see his face crumble to the depth of sea, decayed to the deepest ocean.And seconds pass by before Eva's scent spreads through the air, eloping the people's agitation into thin air. I must admit, watching his sneering turned to a frown was pleasing to the eyes. The confusion and irritation in his eyes confessed every inch of despair he felt.The corner of my lips lifted higher as his eyes darted promptly towards mine, seeing the irritation blasted into a rageful sight.As I said."You…" He growled, baring his teeth towards me.Predictable.–(Joshue Miller's Resident Earlier)"You ca

    Emma GreyEva had been excellent in her public speeches ever since we were children. But looking at her now, on a stage for a very special occasion as this really did place her in a new light.One that suited her the best."Eva's really awesome, don't you think?" The words slipped on its own, flowed unconsciously as my eyes trained on her composed figure. "Yup, I agree! Do you know how many packs there were for having a woman as a leader?" Lina muttered, glancing at me expectantly.And as much as I wanted to retort her anticipation, I must admit I actually had no idea how many there were. Truthfully, I had never heard of any woman becoming a leader. Though, I couldn't comment much on it, as I too, hadn't known of the outside world other than my very pack.Thus, a shrug was all I could muster. "Beats me."She sighed, "Yeah, that makes two of us. Kind of makes me want to leave this place and explore the world."I felt my lips twitch into a hollow smile. Someday, Lina. I'm sure of it

    Nathan Black"Mrs Eva Grey, the stage is yours."Eva nodded towards Thomas, marching her feet onto the center of the stage, reluctantly giving her speeches. I admit it was one of the most exasperating things to do as a pack leader, thus, I kind of understood her disinclination.Besides that, it seemed I was a bit late to the hearing, though it was only due to Eva asking me for assistance in some matters pertaining to the event today.I guess I was an exception for running a bit behind the schedule. Good thing I had managed to spot Ethan instantly among the crowds."You didn't return home last night." I muttered heedlessly, stepping to Ethan's side, a meter away from the stage. It seemed he had been here for quite some time, seeing him almost bored to his bone.As much as I wanted to arrive with Emma earlier, it was necessary for me to discuss some matters with Eva. Which was why I had to take a detour towards Sir Joshue's house early this morning."And you must've been relieved I d

    Emma Grey"Nope. Stay away from me."My brows knitted in confusion, noting how Lina had held her hands towards me. Her eyes glimpsed unimpressively while creating a distance between us.We were all called to the field for Eva's hearing today. And recognizing her silhouette from afar, I excitedly ran up towards her, albeit, the second I patted her shoulder, she jumped on her feet away from me.What's wrong with her? The second I attempted to march a step closer, she hastily shuffled backwards as though she was uncomfortable with my presence."What're you doing?" I uttered in bewilderment. She eyed me suspiciously, raising her eyebrow expectantly towards me that I almost felt offended by it."You're with him last night, weren't you?" She accused, though not that it was all false. However, the way she muttered it incriminatingly had me almost on my toes.More importantly, how did she even know that? Because, after we had kiss– I mean, pouring our feelings towards each other, Nathan had i
