2024-07-26 04:53:00Easton and Ryan showed us the rest of the offices and that’s when it finally registered that the Alpha floor was the top story. The floor below the offices and conference room had guest rooms for visiting Alphas, and below that were living quarters for wolves residing in the pack house. The floor containing the living quarters seemed much larger than the ones above it since it was more like a dormitory and didn’t need to deter unwanted guests. In the middle there were large communal bathrooms where the other stories would have been separated to the sides.
We walked down the stairs to the bottom floor and I could tell what Easton meant about the front and back being separate. The first floor contained the pack kitchen and dining room on one side, and a large common room on the other side. Walking through the hallway to the back, we entered a large event room. The event room had tall ceiling, and stairs leading up both sides with balconies overlookRelated chapters
The Forsaken Daughter 30: Never Quiet
Easton POV: Before I began showing Emily around the pack house, I decided I needed to program her fingerprint into the lock system. I explained the reason for remodeling and extra security, and I couldn’t help but shudder as I remembered walking in my bedroom to find a naked she-wolf. Dallas tried to take over and rip her limbs off before tearing out her throat at the unwanted intrusion. I could tell Emily sensed my disdain at the memory because I felt her bliss and relief through our bond. I was worried she would be jealous as I recalled the story. I knew the false rumors that went around about me. We went to the Beta floor to meet Ryan and Hannah and I was not surprised to find him eating cookies so soon after breakfast. I also wasn’t surprised he didn’t save me any. As we showed the ladies the office floor, I was growing more and more anxious. I was worried Emily wouldn’t like the interior design of

Emily POV We decided to go to a diner for lunch when Easton mentioned he had to get his keys. While he went to our apartment, Hannah and I decided to look at the common room. Ryan went to the kitchen to get us some water. We had barely stepped inside the common room when I felt someone squeeze my ass. I knew it wasn’t Easton and I turned around to see a guy who couldn’t be much older than eighteen smirking at me. “Hi gorgeous. You look like my next girlfriend.” He said. “Strange. You look like the next person to get their ass handed to them by me.” I retorted. “Aww, honey. You couldn’t if you tried.” He grinned as he reached his hand towards my face. Hannah scoffed at his remark as I grabbed his arm and twisted it around. He raised his free hand in attack, but I quickly spun around and used the leverage I had to force his body to the ground. I was fuming with anger as I told him, “If you touch me or say anything else remotely inappropriate to me you will die.” I turne

Easton POV I got a quick rundown on what happened in the common room while we were on the way to the diner. Ryan was right; I really do have myself a badass Luna. I was thinking about the fact that it’s unusual for females to have an Alpha aura when we pulled up to the diner. We went in and the diner suddenly went quiet. ‘Is that what usually happens when you show up in public?’ Emily mind linked me. ‘Not really.’ I linked back. As we walked to the corner booth, I could hear the other customers begin to talk again. “That’s the next Luna, the tall one.” I heard someone whisper as we walked by. “I heard she knocked out two warriors at once” Another whispered. The noise slowly began to build back up. I stopped to turn back towards the whispers, but Emily nudged me to continue. We sat down as the noise began to slowly build back up. A young she-wolf quickly made her way towards our booth. “Alpha, Beta,” she started with a wide smile, “here are your menus. What can I get you

Emily POV I didn’t miss the whispers as we walked into the diner. ‘Word sure travels fast around here.’ Hannah’s voice giggled through the mind link. ‘And inaccurately.’ I noted. When the waitress approached us, I wasn’t sure if her wide smile was the same reserved for everyone or if it was due to my mate. I could tell her quick glare was reserved strictly for me, however. She looked similar to the she-wolf from the common room, and I could detect a small resemblance in their scents as well. ‘I will rip her to shreds if she touches our mate.’ Kyra growled in my mind. ‘The glare was for me as the she-wolf that handled her sister, not as Easton’s mate.’ I replied, urging her to calm down. I wasn’t expecting the waitress to be snarky, but I was expecting Hannah’s protective retorts that followed. I made a point to get her name and thank her when she brought our drinks out. I knew she had given me Diet Coke instead of Dr. Pepper because the color was slightly off. The othe

Emily POV I know Hannah knew I wasn’t staying behind to go to the restroom. I also know she would’ve done worse than Kayla if she thought someone had messed with her sister, or even me. “What did you tell them?” I asked Hannah with a laugh as Easton laced his fingers in mine. “That we’ll be getting food again in a couple of hours?” Hannah meekly tried to avoid it. “Marjorie doesn’t take anything out of her employees’ pay, especially if she says something is on the house.” Easton informed with a chuckle. “Really, Hannah?” I laughed. “Well, I know you won’t tell anyone. You never tell people about the good you do. Always trying to do everything behind the scenes.” She mumbled. “I don’t do things for public recognition. I do it because it’s the right thing to do. The only recognition I ever wanted was from my family and I gave up on that a long time ago.” I muttered. “Well, you’ll get a lot of recognition here. Better get used to it, Luna.” Ryan said with a wink. I sighed. “I mi

Emily POV Easton and Ryan were chuckling as we crossed the street. “You were serious when you said you graze, huh?” Easton questioned me playfully. “Did you think I was joking about food?” I shot back with a laugh. “Oh, Emily NEVER jokes about food.” Hannah deadpanned. “You don’t get hangry do you, Luna?” Ryan asked with a worried look. “She most definitely does. I bet she ate right before leaving for the gala the other night.” Hannah answered. “I do not get hangry! I was just fine yesterday between breakfast and our late lunch!” I retorted matter-of-factly. “Yeah, passed out, in the hospital, probably slept in the car, and probably had some ‘ahem’ *stress relief* a few times too.” Hannah muttered with a giggle. “Hannah!” I exclaimed. ‘Well you weren’t hangry, baby girl. Maybe it was the stress relief she mentioned.’ Easton’s voice joked in our mind link as Kyra spoke up, ‘Definitely was that.’ ‘Keep it up and you’ll see hangry.’ I suggestively replied to Easton
Last Updated : 2024-07-31The Forsaken Daughter 36: More Control
Emily POV We left the cafe and walked back to Easton’s car. I couldn’t help but notice how the downtown area seemed like the perfect place to shop or just spend an afternoon. It was already late afternoon, so Hannah and I wanted to shower and change before the pack dinner. Can’t exactly show up to our introduction dinner looking like we’d been shopping all day. “So, what do y’all have to do tomorrow?” Hannah questioned as we drove to the pack house. I looked at her and realized she was asking Easton and Ryan. That’s right. Tomorrow is Monday so they will probably have to get back to work. “We have to get debit cards for the two of you and I have a few meetings to reschedule, but that’s it. Luke is handling some of our stuff and Dad is filling in the rest so we can kinda take this week to show y’all around and whatnot.” Easton casually replied. “You don’t have to take a week off. We can show ourselves around just fine.” I mentioned. “Yeah, I don’t want you getting behi
Last Updated : 2024-08-02The Forsaken Daughter 37: Connection Issues
Easton POV I could tell Emily was feeling overwhelmed, but I couldn’t figure out how she was managing to completely block our connection at times. It wasn’t a block I could feel, and it didn’t feel like anything was missing. It was just like the connection and bond never existed. ‘Dallas, can you block the connection completely?’ I asked my wolf. ‘Not like mate can. She would feel it if we blocked it.’ He replied and I just hummed in response. I tried to recall anything I could about Fae and softly stroking Emily’s hair while she took a nap. I was grateful for my mother handling the introduction dinner tonight. She loves planning events, no matter the size, so I knew she was more than happy to do so. I had got lost in my own thoughts when Emily rolled over. I hadn’t noticed she was awake. I kissed her forehead and asked, “Sleep good?” She snuggled her head into my chest. “It was the best nap I’ve had in forever.” She mumbled. “Oh, so you’re a frequent napper then?” I jo

The Forsaken Daughter 73: Wise Words
Easton POV I felt like I’d lived an entire lifetime in the past three days. I could only imagine how Emily felt. I didn’t know anyone in the pack was part Fae, so it was a shock to learn Kent’s mate Michelle was. When Michelle agreed to speak with us upstairs, I thought we would just be discussing simple Fae abilities and maybe how Emily could use them. I definitely was not expecting Michelle’s grandmother to literally pop in and drop the answers to Emily’s questions right into our laps. I sat quietly while Aisling and Emily spoke, trying to take everything in and wrap my head around it. When Aisling said Emily’s mother was the Fae princess it explained why Emily had such a powerful aura and Alpha command. ‘So she’s technically a princess, too.’ Dallas preened. ‘I guess.’ I replied. ‘Definitely explains why she’s stronger than her dad.’ My heart clenched when Aisling said she would take Emily to the Fae kingdom, but I was quickly relieved when she added that she would t
The Forsaken Daughter 72: Real Answers
Emily POV “The entire Fae Kingdom?” I questioned. “Yes, dear. Your mother was the princess.” I blinked a few times as the words registered. I downed the rest of my drink before slowly standing and walking to refill my glass. If my mother was the princess, what does that make me? Surely they don’t expect me to rule the kingdom one day. I suppose that could also explain why Alpha commands don’t work on me and why I’m stronger than my dad. Everyone in the office quietly watched me as I walked back to the couch and sat down. “Who in their right mind marks some mediocre she-wolf when they’re already mated to a freaking PRINCESS?” I half-shouted to no-one in particular. I then remembered Easton saying he bet it was a love potion Katherine used. I turned to look him.
The Forsaken Daughter 71: Family
Emily POV We walked into my office and I walked straight to the bar. “Coffee or cocktail?” I offered. “An Old-Fashioned for us, please.” Kent replied. Easton had followed me to the bar and instructed me to sit while he made the four of us drinks. I went to sit on the couch and motioned to the chairs to instruct Kent and Michelle to sit as well. When we were all sitting, I took a deep breath as I contemplated where to begin. Easton gently nudged me. I took a large gulp of my drink before starting. “So, this information is confidential. Can y’all assure me you won’t discuss this outside of this room?” I asked. “You have our word. It remains between the four of us.” Michelle stated sincerely. “After we mated, I learned that Katherine is not my biological moth
The Forsaken Daughter 70: Startling Surprise
Emily POV Michelle was the opposite of most of the she-wolves I had met in Silver Springs, or ever, really. It was apparent that she had a no nonsense attitude and I was a bit taken aback at her grave demeanor. I felt an instant connection with Michelle for some strange reason. She didn’t seem to be overly friendly or over talkative, but I could sense something in her that seemed to tie us together. My wolf could sense it as well. ‘I don’t know what it is but it’s intriguing.’ Kyra mumbled to me. I was surprised to learn she was originally from the Conecuh Forest pack. Everyone I had met from that pack was usually playful and unserious. Like Jake without the arrogance and douchery. I told her I was originally from Blue Moon, and she looked at me quizzically for a brief moment and asked, “Who are your parents?” Hannah sensed my hesitancy and blurted, “She’s Alpha Adam’s oldest daughter.” “Well, I’ve always doubted the rumors about you, and after meeting you I’m glad I
The Forsaken Daughter 69: Smells like Teen Spirit
Emily POV Easton chuckled and slowly slid out of me. “It’s definitely my new favorite pastime.” He started to move away from me, and confusion washed over me until he reassured me with a light kiss on my forehead. “I need to throw the condom in the trash.” I hummed at his statement as he walked off. My eyes started to flutter closed, and I felt Easton slip back on the couch beside me and pull me close in his arms right before I drifted off to sleep. I woke up when the urge to use the bathroom hit me. I was cuddled close against Easton, and was thinking of a way to get up without waking up. I finally decided there wasn’t a way to do so since we had fallen asleep on the couch and I was between him and the back cushions. I tried to sit up, but he tightened his grip around my waist and mumbled something in his sleep. “Babe.” I whispered. I moved one hand to his cheek. He hummed in response and his eyes fluttered briefly. “I need to get up.” I said. He opened his eyes and loc
The Forsaken Daughter 68: Killing Time
Emily POV I don’t know what I was expecting, but it wasn’t for Easton to kiss the mark on my neck and ask, “Do you like this?” He continued to lick at the mark and kiss it and I couldn’t stop the small moan that escaped me as he did. “I more than like it.” I whispered. I slid my hands underneath his shirt to lightly stroke his back. His hands cupped my ass and I knew how I wanted to spend the time before dinner. He pulled his head from my neck and our lips met instantly. It didn’t take long for Easton to lift me, and I wrapped my legs around him. I grabbed the bottom of his shirt and pulled it up. He pulled his lips from mine just long enough for me to pull his shirt over his head. I was glad he’d decided to wear a polo shirt instead of a button up. Easton had walked us to the couch, and he sat down with me in his lap. I leaned back and pulled my own shirt off. His eyes darkened as he looked at me. He reached around to unhook my bra, and I let it fall. His mouth went to o
The Forsaken Daughter 67: Alone Again
Easton POV I followed Emily into the kitchen and ignored Aunt Evelyn’s teasing. I leaned on the kitchen island and watched Emily start the coffee maker and get creamer and a bottled water out of the fridge. She caught me watching her and leaned over the island to whisper, “Anything you’d like to share with the class, Alpha?” “I definitely don’t want to share this with anyone.” I murmured. Emily stood to walk back and add creamer to her now-finished cup of coffee. She put the creamer back in fridge and asked, “Did you want anything?” “I think we gotta wait for what I want.” I winked. “Well, can’t say I’m surprised by that.” I heard Aunt Evelyn say from behind me. “Well, at least I’m not trying to drag her off with y’all in the living room.” I mumbled. She smirked at me and looked at Emily. “I have that monthly dose for you. It should be effective within twenty-four hours of taking it, so I suggest using other methods for the first day or two after.” She handed Emi
The Forsaken Daughter 66: Relief
Easton POV When Emily got out of the SUV I let out a breath I didn’t realize I was holding. I was relieved she was finally back in my sight after only a few hours apart. I gave her a tight hug and started to passionately kiss her, but quickly remembered our audience and pulled away. I looked at Callie when I heard her giggle. “Told you they were miserable.” She winked at Emily. “Babe, you know it’s normal for newly mated couples. Besides, Easton got teased enough today by Aunt Evelyn.” Luke laughed. I turned to glare at him and saw that Luke was watching Ryan and me knowingly. I guess he had experienced this feeling when he and Callie were newly mated. I told Emily they could go upstairs and we’d get the bags, but she said it would be quicker if we all got them. Callie suggested taking them to their suite, so we decided on that. Once we had all the bags, I turned to dismiss Kent and Mitch. I was taken by surprise when Kent and Mitch looked to Emily and asked to carry the
The Forsaken Daughter 65: Online Shopping
Easton POV “Aw, come on! Can’t we play a few more games?” Ryan whined. “Fine.” I grumbled. “We’re playing Mario Kart, though.” I knew it would be a good idea to distract myself (and Ryan) from the fact that our mates were out shopping without us. We walked over to the side of the arcade where game consoles were. We sat down and grabbed three controllers to start our game. Several Mario Kart races later, Ryan and Luke were both pouting at my wins. “How do you always beat us in this?” Luke mumbled. I shrugged. “When you’re the best, you’re the best.” I smirked. Ryan huffed in annoyance. “I’ll win one day.” “Not today. It’s time to go back to work.” I said as I stood up. Ryan and Luke followed me. “Why is it so empty in here today?” I asked as we walked towards the exit. “Probably because school isn’t over for the day.” Luke said. I took my phone out to check the time and grumbled internally. Time seemed to moving slower than usual. Luke seemed to know what I
