~Emma~

A few days later...

Alpha Jayden finally came home on Saturday afternoon. He was still in coma, onboard the mental hospital vehicle, accompanied by the hired male nurse and two hospital staff that would install the breathing machine called a ventilator.

Alpha Jayden's comatose body was put in the living room for a few minutes for everyone to see while the ventilator machine was installed in the room by hospital staff.

I watched the heartbreaking moments unfold in my eyes as Alpha Jayden's body was surrounded by his loved ones.

Luna Victoria and Julie cried sorrowfully, tears rolling down their faces as they looked down at Alpha Jayden. The men wore a gloomy expression on their faces. Sadness and despair hung thick in the air.

After the breathing machine was installed successfully, Alpha Jayden was taken to his room.

I have a good glimpse of Alpha Jayden lying on the bed attached to a tube moving air in and out of his lungs via his mouth and nose. I feared he might not last long

    ~Emma~After the first time I administered my herbal medicine to Alpha Jayden nothing happened. He is not miraculously waking up from a coma and there are no noticeable signs that he is recovering internally. It was saddening and frustrating for a healer like me who wants fast action.I began to doubt myself and my capabilities. Is there really no hope anymore to save Alpha Jayden? Is it too late already?Sigh.I stayed in Alpha Jayden's room until 11:00 that night, hoping to see a favorable result but still nothing. No slight movement of his toes and fingers indicating the medicine I gave him was working to heal his internal organs.Such a bummer!"Come on, you have to sleep now. There's still tomorrow. You can't expect fast results. It's only been day one since you fed my brother your medicine. Give his body enough time to adjust to the medicine," Alpha Jett said, forcing me to go to my room and retire for the night."No." I refused to budge. I rather want to stay awake overnight to

    ~Emma~"Leave the room please! All of you! Let me handle this!" I ordered again as the worms, dark looking insects continued to come out of Alpha Jayden's mouth, nose and ears.I'm glad the royal family obeyed my command and rushed out of the room. Only one person was left behind and that was Alpha Jett.I glared at him. "Why are you still here? Go! Leave the room now!" I ordered."No! I won't leave you behind! We will face these parasites together!" he said stubbornly. "Shall I let my wolf out now?" He asked permission.I shook my head. "No. Just stay near the door! Hurry up! And cover your mouth, nose and ears!" I said.After I said that one of the insects flew to my face, I swatted it with my hand, sending it to the wall. There's more coming out of the holes in Jayden's nose, mouth and ears. So it's true! The worms are true!The worms and insects are getting poisoned by the medicine inside Alpha Jayden's body. They can no longer endure torture and come out to the surface to find an

    ~Emma~I think I drifted into a deep slumber because I was awakened to the sound of a heavy knock on the door."Emma! Open the door!" Alpha Jett said.I blinked my eyes several times thinking I was just dreaming but when I got up from the bed to walk to the door, Alpha Jett had already teleported inside my room."Calm down! What's going on?" I asked."One parasite is still alive and has entered my sister's ears! She was screaming in pain right now. You have to remove the parasite from her ears!" Alpha Jett said, panicking."OK, let's go," I said and rushed to the door. "Where is she now?" I asked while we were walking in the hallway."We brought her to her room. My father and brother are restraining her right now," Alpha Jett explained."It must be really painful," I said recalling how painful the worm bit my finger."Yes, my poor sister can't stop crying due to the pain. She told us that the worm was trying to bite its way to her brain," Alpha Jett stated."Ouch, that hurts real bad,

    ~Emma~Alpha Jett smiled and pinched my nose. "They were awestruck by your power. Even my father who is an Alpha King has no power like yours. We are werewolves, we are strong beings and we can teleport but we don't have the power of fire, so naturally, we are shocked and surprised that you have such power. They are still reeling from the shock, but they will get over it in no time."I looked at him in silence. Should I just accept his explanation? Maybe I'm just making a big deal of nothing at all."Are you sure?" I asked.He nodded his head and planted a quick kiss on my head. "Yup. I'm actually proud that my fated mate is a super girl."I shook my head. "I'm not actually a super girl," I corrected him."OK. No problem if you deny it," he said. "Let's not talk about your superpower if you are not comfortable talking about it."Indeed, I'm uncomfortable discussing my power so I change the topic quickly. "Aren't you going to check on Shirley?" I asked."Not at this time. Maybe later.

I'm not mad, I'm just a bit upset about your statement. But I can't be completely mad at you."I pouted and asked, "Why?""Because I love you," he said softly. His eyes were filled with affection while gazing at my face.Aww. My heart melted under his hypnotic gaze. I pinched his sides. "You and your flowery words! Why don't you just tell me the truth so we can put an end to all this?" I challenged him.He suddenly enveloped me in a tight embrace, knocking air out of my lungs. He planted a gentle kiss on my head. "I love you. I'm just protecting you," he said thoughtfully.My brows furrowed. My interest was piqued. I raised my head and looked into his eyes. "Protecting me? From what? From whom?" I asked, searching for the truth in his eyes.His eyes became hooded. "Babe, trust me, after our wedding I will tell you everything I kn

    ~Emma~After getting tired of pacing back and forth in my room, I lay down on the bed and closed my eyes. If Alpha Jett already made up his mind to reveal the truth then he will wake me up.I'm tired of thinking too much and worrying about his decision so I might as well sleep and rest my weary mind.I set the alarm on my phone at 12:00 midnight.Time to doze off.I drifted into sleep for about one hour when I sensed someone had appeared in my room. I quickly rose from the bed to see who it was. It was just Alpha Jett, sporting a worried expression on his face.Something is obviously wrong..."What's wrong?" I asked."We received a call from the leader of the guards in the dungeon informing us that Augusta had escaped from her cell. When the guard assigned to watch over her gave her food, she didn't eat it and there was no movement inside the cell for two days. They opened the cell and found it empty. She was gone," Alpha Jett explained.I looked at him in shock.My brows snapped toge

    ~Emma~Time went by.I continue meditating, running different war scenarios in my mind. In each of the scenarios my goal is to win and kill the enemies.Alpha King Joaquin told me that although it may sound ruthless and cruel, the only way to achieve peace is to kill the bad guys because if you show them mercy, they might return, take revenge and kill again.I take it to heart, reminding myself that this is a brutal war and it's either the enemy kills me or I kill them first.The Alpha King told me this...Show no mercy! Show no mercy no matter what!I repeated it in my head a million times and it became my mantra.Suddenly, my ears are ringing. The barrier I put up around the house alerted me that the enemy was approaching.Damn! They came too soon, they didn't even wait for the morning to come!I opened my eyes and glanced at the clock hanging on the wall. It was still 3:30 in the morning.

    ~Emma~Augusta was shaken for a bit, getting confused, I see it as a good sign of her weakness."Where is Shirley?" Augusta asked, pressing the dagger even more to Alpha Jett's neck, drawing blood."I killed her myself because she didn't deserve to live!" I said coldly.After saying that, Augusta slit Alpha Jett's neck with the dagger she was holding in her hands, then she said, "Kill that woman!" She ordered the wolves to attack me and bolted towards the portal opening and disappeared insideI waved my hand and froze the wolves, turning them into statues.Then I walked to the portal opening, joining Augusta inside.When I was already inside the portal, it was already bare, no more trees because everything had already disintegrated and turned into particles in the air. But the moonlight was still there, giving a dim light to the entire place.Augusta suddenly appeared behind me and pressed the dagger into my neck.

"Grams, thank you for giving me the chance to borrow this powerful necklace. Without it I'd already be dead by now," I said.Grandma smiled. "You are powerful on your own, child. You just need time to harness your power. By using this necklace you have tasted how good it feels to have limitless power at your disposal to defend yourself and save others from harm.

    ~Emma~It was a sunny afternoon. Alpha Jett and I were planning to visit another park within the city, the last one we hadn't visited yet.I was putting my essentials in my sling bag when my phone rang. I quickly answered it.The caller was my dear grandmother. "Hello, Grams..." I said, wondering why she called all of a sudden."Child, return home right away," Grams Dacia said."Why? Did something happen?" I asked anxiously."No, nothing bad happened. In fact something good happened today, your missing cousin Josephine finally came home!" Grams said happily."Whaaaaat? Is this true?" I shrieked in utter delight."Yes! Come back home immediately!" Grams said. "Josephine will explain everything to you about what happened to her during her disappearance. Hurry up! We will have a happy family reunion once you arrive!" she added merrily."OK, I will come home immediately, but I want to ask this question first. Did she come home alone?" I asked."No, she came home with her husband and her b

    ~Emma~The following day we woke up to a dark sky, heavy rain pouring outside like torrents."The weather is not good today," I commented, glancing at the transparent window."I think there is a hurricane coming," he said sleepily. "Today is a good day to just stay indoors, watch movies, just relax and chill," he said with a wink."Then go back to sleep sleepyhead," I said, smiling in amusement."Wake me up when December comes, babe," he joked."Okie Dokie, go back to sleep while I prepare our breakfast in the kitchen," I said, rising from the bed and entering the bathroom so I could start my day.After I finished in the bathroom, I went to the kitchen and prepared food for breakfast.One hour later, breakfast is ready. I arranged the dishes palatably on the table consisting of creamy waffles, sunny side up egg, ham and slices of ripe mangoes with two cups of hot espresso coffee.I went to the bedroom and announced, "Breakfast is ready!""Coming..."

    ~Emma~I don't want to argue with Alpha Jett now that we are caught in the middle of this blood thirsty vampire."Babe, are you gonna back out on your words this time?" he asked. His jaw clenched.I took a deep breath, feeling guilty. "I'm sorry, but what is the use of having so much power if I can't even use it to help others?""Are you trying to be a hero now?" he asked between gritted teeth."I have no choice," I responded casually. "Didn't you see the women's faces? Their eyes were stamped with hopelessness. How can I turn my back on them? How long will they stay this way if we don't save them now?" I said."But we agreed to teleport beforehand if we don't see your cousin among the caged women? And you agreed to it," he reminded me. His tone was heavy with annoyance.We were busy conversing with each other when the announcer's voice rang in the air again, bringing us back to our present surroundings.That's when we noticed that all the vampires around us had already taken their ma

    ~Emma~"This one text informs us about a vampire den who are kidnapping women, suspected to be run by a powerful vampire. Do you think we can find Lucian there?" I asked.Alpha Jett fell silent for a moment. "Although it's the first call we have that tells us about vampires, it doesn't guarantee that Lucian is the powerful vampire leader of that vampire den. It could be anyone. For your information, Lucian doesn't run a vampire den and he doesn't kidnap women randomly," he said, trying to defend his family's friend.I snorted. "But he kidnapped my cousin. That makes him a bad vampire and a kidnapper! And if the texter is telling the truth, there are many women who are trapped in that mansion. What if Lucian owned the house or he was the one running that den?""Lucian would never do such things, period!" Alpha Jett insisted.I looked him in the eyes, getting annoyed at how he still trusted and defended that vampire kidnapper. "Tell me. How well did you know Lucian? Have you stayed by h

    ~Emma~After a good night's sleep, we woke up to a bright new day. We take our time at the dining table, enjoying the morning with our morning coffee and the delicious breakfast we ordered from the restaurant across the street.While eating we discussed our schedule for the day."We will go to the mall to buy groceries after we visit the newspaper headquarters," I said."Yes, ma'am. I'll obey all your orders," Alpha Jett jokingly said.I grinned. His absolute cooperation with my cause made me happy. We no longer fight or argue and I'm trying not to get upset easily. I'm trying to focus on the task ahead. I realized that getting mad at Alpha Jett and his family will not help me in finding Lucian and my cousin Josephine.I have to block out other negative thoughts and emotions in order to focus on my mission.As long as I have Alpha Jett and my family's unwavering support, I will achieve greater things in the future, including finding Josephine."How is your family nowadays?"

    ~Emma~At 2:00 in the afternoon, we packed our bags and put them in the trunk of the car. After making sure we didn't leave anything behind, we left the house and got into our vehicle, ready to leave.Lucian's abandoned home has been our home for 7 days.I looked at the imposing old structure in front of me, sighing heavily."Are you okay?" Alpha Jett asked, inspecting my face."I'm fine," I responded with a smile. "Let's go to the city now and get this over with," I said.He replied, "Alright, let's teleport back to the area in the woods near the highway.""OK." I nodded my head.Alpha Jett initiated the teleportation process in his mind and we disappeared from the hill. A few moments later we appeared in a small clearing near the trees fifty meters away from the road. We were lucky because there were no passing vehicles at that time.He drove the car out of the woods and we traveled smoothly on the open highway."We have two main cities to choose from, West and East?

    ~Emma~The following day I woke up to a bright new day. The sun shone brightly in the sky above.The morning is great, no mosquito bites for me and my handsome companion who is still sleeping soundly beside me. I wonder when he slept, a while ago? Or he fell asleep the moment I drifted into a deep slumber.Anyways, I got out of bed, went to the bathroom and gargled water in my mouth and splashed some on my face to finally awaken my senses.When I emerged from the bathroom door a few minutes later, my companion was still sleeping so I let him be. He deserved a good sleep after staying awake last night.I exited the room and boiled water for coffee.A few minutes later, I got my mug, some crackers and settled comfortably on the chair on the balcony, enjoying my hot drink.I scanned the surrounding area and was greeted with the tranquil sight of the majestic mountains looming in the distance. This place is truly magnificent and ethereal especially during the early morning.I wonder where

    ~Emma~After six hours journey, we finally arrived at the castle aka a huge mansion situated on a hill overlooking the ocean. I looked at the gate, no guard was stationed at the massive iron rusted looking gate."That is Lucian's home," Alpha Jett pointed his hand at the massive house looming in front of us.The mansion looks like it belong to a bygone era. It has been abandoned for a long time. No movement or sound could be heard coming from the house. The only sounds I can hear are the sounds of insects and birds chirping above us, originating from the branches of the few trees surrounding the area. The vast lawn was taken over by overgrown wild plants and bushes."Do you want to enter the gate?" he asked. "Or leave and go home?""I won't leave." I said, shaking my head, refusing to leave until I saw my cousin alive. "Let's check the house and gather some clues," I responded, getting out of the car.Alpha Jett and I held hands and teleported inside the mansion. The place was huge. S
