~Emma~

I was looking forward to sleeping early tonight and now that Julie has given me the go signal it's only right that I will reap my reward and that is to sleep early. But this possessive guy entered my room uninvited and was trying to flirt with me. He will never give up flirting and teasing me until I give into his charm and temptation.

He continued staring at my face, waiting for my reply. Then a brilliant idea flashed in my mind.

"You can sleep in my room tonight as long as you tell me what happened to my missing cousin Josephine. After you tell me everything, I'm yours body and soul. How about that?" I said, smiling alluringly while gazing into his eyes.

Now that I'm done healing the heir to the throne, I'm ready to go home as long as I know what truly happened to my missing cousin.

I studied his face. He was hesitant, shaking his head. He had a hard time deciding if he wanted to tell me the truth or not.

"What? You can't make up your mind?" I said, mocking him. "You are so bo

"I'm here to check on you, Alpha."Alpha Jagger looked at the woman and introduced me to her. "This is Emma my new healer. She will be my personal healer from now on."The woman protested, "But Alpha, I'm your healer! Why are you replacing me? I came back to cure you," she said in desperation.After hearing the woman speak and connecting the dots together, I finally realized she was Augusta, the previous healer.Augusta looked at me sharply and pointed her hand at me. "What can she do that I can't do?"Alpha Jagger wore a serious expression on his face while addressing his former healer. "For your information, Emma cured me in just a few hours of attending to me. She managed to kick out the dark spirit lurking in this room that gave me nightmares every night. All the things she did, you fai

    ~Emma~As Augusta and I got deeper into the woods, I was thinking about what punishment I would do to the royal family if they were involved in my cousin's disappearance.I looked at Augusta. She was acting like a robot. She kept moving, ignoring me completely."Where are we going? We are heading far away from the mansion," I told her.Augusta didn't reply to my question, instead she kept moving on."Can you answer me, Augusta?" I demanded.She looked at me annoyed. "Just follow me. Stop chattering!""Fine. But who are these people who threw my cousin's body into the well?" I asked wanting to know who they are. I want to prepare myself for the confrontation that will occur after I return to the mansion."The three royal brothers, Alpha Jett, Alpha Jagger and Alpha Jayden," Augusta replied in a serious tone.My heart skipped a beat. My hands formed into fists at my sides. I felt enraged and shocked by Augusta's revelation. Anger spread through my body quickly. The fire of destruction wa

    ~Emma~"I'm here to apologize for leaving you in the woods," Augusta said. "Can I enter your room so we can talk privately?"I shook my head. "No. Let's just talk here," I said and closed the door behind me.We stood outside the door, staring at each other."Alright, as you wish." Augusta leaned against the wall, facing me. Her brown curly hair framed her face."What do you want from me?" I asked. "Alpha Jett followed me to the forest and told me that the one who died in the well was a maid who committed suicide because her lover left her for another woman. Is that true?"Augusta smirked. "You really like him. You believed him so much.""Just answer my question!" I said in an irate tone.Augusta shrugged. "The tale of the servant girl was indeed true and what happened to your cousin is also another matter. Instead of doubting my words, why don't you go back to the old well and find out how many skeletons are lying in the bottom so you will get your answer? You can't do it, right? Becau

    ~Emma~Oscar's turned silent and avoided my gaze for a few seconds. Then he looked me straight in the eyes. "I was also confused about why she disappeared. I want to know why. On the day she stopped coming here in the garden, that is when I noticed something went wrong with her."I released the breath I've been keeping inside me. The suspense is intense I thought I'm gonna get answer from the gardener but it turn out he had no idea what happened to Josephine as well. Such a bummer!"Does she always come here in the garden every day?" I pressed further, not wanting to give up yet."Yeah. When she is not busy with her healer duties she always comes here either in the morning or afternoon to enjoy the flowers and she never fails to say hello to me. She is a cheerful woman, good and kind. It's a joy to see and talk to her every day," Carlos elaborated further.I stared at the red rose a few meters away from where I stand. What now?Then I suddenly remembered what Augusta told me that my co

    ~Emma~He looked at me, a bit hesitating to answer my question. "They had friendly conversations between them, but if you want to ask if they are chummy with each other. I really don't know because I don't watch their movements 24/7."He paused for a moment and continued, "They are interacting with each other normally, nothing out of the ordinary. I haven't seen them holding hands, stealing glances at each other or wearing that love struck look on their faces. I haven't seen them affectionate with each other. They are not romantically entangled with each other. Period." He concluded his statement."I see, how about Alpha Jagger? He is not attracted to my cousin even a tiny bit?" I asked, wanting to cover everything so I can form a conclusion of my own.He shook his head. "No. Jagger is not attracted to Josephine at all. She was not his type," he said quickly."So why is your brother Jayden admitted to a mental hospital? What is the reason why he had a mental breakdown or why he was suf

    ~Emma~Alpha Jett fell silent after hearing my question."Why are you not answering me?"As I continued observing his face, I realized that he had difficulty answering my question because before I arrived in their midst, they had a peaceful relationship. "It's the mate bond that changes you overnight. The pull of the mate bond is powerful and once you meet your fated mate, other people don't matter anymore. Am I right?"He took a deep breath and raked his hands on his hair out of frustration. Then he looked at me, meeting my gaze. "Yes, you are right.""I see... so the mate bond is the culprit. You are not the problem. You are drawn to me, attracted to me, pushed by a powerful force that you can't control. Am I right?"He nodded his head in silence."Your Moon Goddess is cruel, ripping apart a loving couple because of the mate's bond. That kind of bond leaves a bitter taste in my mouth," I retorted, shaking my head disdainfully.He groaned, looking annoyed. "Please leave the Moon Godde

If I'm not pursuing the investigation of my cousin's disappearance I will fully enjoy this moment with him.The moment was perfect.Only the two of us in this small paradise where everything was nice and laid back. We are free to do anything, enjoy each other's company and forget all our worries behind.He edged closer to me, our hands almost touching. "If we meet at another time and there is no problem between us, would you give me a chance?" he asked.I fell silent. I can't answer his question right away.My silence stretched for minutes and he was getting impatient."Silence means yes?" he asked, looking at me deeply.I smiled. "You are really under the spell of the mate bond. Your eyes say it all.""Yeah, you are right. But mate bond or not I will still like you just the same," he said, looking at me with adoration flashing in his eyes."How flattering?" I giggled in elation. A gorgeous guy was showering me wit

"Welcome back Mom, Dad!" I said cheerfully, taking a seat beside my sister.My parents nodded their heads, acknowledging my presence.My mother looked at me and said, "Your sister and brother have already informed us about the new healer. We only hear good things about her. Where is she right now? Resting in her room?""Emma is in the pool right now. We were swimming there a while ago," I answered casually.My brother's brows snapped together, his face darkened. "Huh? You went swimming with her in the pool? Don't tell me you already flirted with her? Are you planning to seduce her?" he asked, his tone laced with annoyance."What's the problem, bro?" I asked, looking at him surprised by his reaction.My brother snarled. "You already had Shirley, stick with her! Don't corrupt my private healer. She's

    ~Emma~I looked at Alpha Jett and then at Alpha Jagger. They are waiting for me to decide. I need to think of an alibi fast before the two brothers start arguing with each other."Um, guys, can I go to my room and rest? I have my period?" I said, caressing my tummy. "I have menstrual cramps," I added for good measure."Ok, go ahead," Alpha Jagger said, stepping aside as I passed by him on the stairs, heading to my room on the second floor.The moment I closed the door, I locked it securely.I went to bed and lay down, staring at the ceiling, wondering what time the royal couple would return home.

    ~Emma~Nice! Julie is in a good mood today. I might as well ask her now."Um, can I ask you about my cousin Josephine?" I begin my inquiry.Julie's brows drew together. "What about her?""We all know she disappeared. My family and I have been trying to find her, so I'm hoping I can find answers here since this is the place where everything started," I said.Julie took a deep breath. "Unfortunately I can't say much about her disappearance because she was out there in the city during her rest day. Then she didn't return home afterwards. That's all I can say to you.""Thank you for the information." I sighed inwardly, feeling disappointed. As expected Julie told me the same thing, nothing new.Julie stood up. "If nothing else, I'm going to my room.""OK. Thanks." I said, nodding my head, watching her walk away and climb the staircase. She was clearly avoiding me now.I sighed deeply. What to do next?I scanned the living room, trying to imagine what happened here? On that night when my c

    ~Emma~The royal couple were stunned by my request. I was so confident I could cure Alpha Jayden, I was willing to shoot myself in the foot. If I can't cure Alpha Jayden they won't kill me, right? At least I tried.The truth is I just want to see Alpha Jayden. Maybe he can pave a way for me to find the truth about my missing cousin. I can only take chances, grasping for straws because no one was willing to help me.What I really need to see is the body of my cousin if she is already dead and where her location is if she is still alive. Is that hard to ask?I looked at their faces. They are no longer staring at me. They are preoccupied with their own thoughts, only Shirley continues to stare at me with contempt in her eyes.She sneered. "You are so full of yourself, girl. Who do you think you are? Do you think you are the greatest healer alive that you think you can cure Alpha Jayden?" Shirley said in a mocking tone.I ignored Shirley because I'm not here to quarrel with her. I'm here
