The 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
The 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 38: Introductions
Easton POV Emily slipped her arm in mine as Ryan and Hannah did the same. Emily and I walked in with Ryan and Hannah behind us and the room immediately went silent. I felt the connection with Emily return for a moment, and I could feel her immense anxiety before the connection was blocked again. My parents had stood when we entered, and we approached their table and stood behind our seats to wait for my dad to give the introductions. “Good Evening, Silver Springs! I’m sure y’all have heard rumors of some members finding their mates, and I’m sure most of you felt two new connections added to the pack link last night. I’d like to introduce you all to Emily, Future Alpha Easton’s mate and your future Luna.” My dad announced with evident joy. He paused briefly as he gestured towards Emily. Emily raised her free hand to give a brief wave to the pack before Dad continued. “I’d also like to introduce future Beta Ryan’s mate, Hannah. Both of these wonderful ladies come from the B
The Forsaken Daughter 39: Dessert
Emily POV I couldn’t figure out what to make of the day. It was overall a great first day in a new pack, but I knew I wouldn’t be with Easton every waking moment, and I wouldn’t be with Hannah all the time either. I would have to make some friends here, but it didn’t look too promising so far. The pack dinner was fantastic, and I was glad to meet the pack members who came to introduce themselves. I was concerned the kitchen staff wouldn’t be able to join, but I noticed they all found somewhere to sit after all the food had been served. It was nice to be in a pack that allowed the kitchen staff to eat with everyone else after preparing the food. I felt relaxed and content as we said goodnight to Jason and Marie and made our way to our apartment. I was utterly exhausted despite taking a nap before dinner, so quickly got ready for bed. I decided to sleep in one of Easton’s t-shirts instead of my own sleepwear. I had gotten comfortable in bed when Easton climbed in behind me an
The Forsaken Daughter 40: Flashback
Emily POV I woke suddenly to the sound of a crash followed by screaming. ‘Kyra, what was that?’ I asked my wolf. I didn’t get a reply from her so I tried to feel for Kyra in my mind, but it was like she wasn’t there. I sat up to try and look around. The room was dark, but the door was cracked letting in a small sliver of light. ‘That’s not right.’ I thought to myself as I noticed there shouldn’t be a door on that side of the bed. Then I noticed the bed seemed to be in a different position. I looked around and quickly realized I was back in my bedroom in the Blue Moon pack house. Was this past weekend a dream? There’s no way it was a dream. Panic set in as I wondered how I got here and if my dad would really have me executed for being here. His voice boomed down the hallway, distracting me from my thoughts. “You will not harm her, Kate!” He roared. Who did she want to harm? “She doesn’t belong here, Adam! And you know it.” I heard my mother sneer. “She is my daughter.
The Forsaken Daughter 41: More Confusion
Emily POV “What do you mean?” Easton asked. “I was a kid again and I heard my parents arguing in the middle of the night. Daddy was yelling at mama about not hurting some “her” and mama said she didn’t belong there. Then daddy said that’s his daughter and that mama had done enough damage with her potion.” I rushed out. “A potion?” He mumbled with confusion. “That’s what I said. And he said something to her about she said she’d be my mother so she needed to be my mother.” I trailed off as a thought occurred to me. ‘Kyra, do you remember that?’ I asked my wolf. ‘I don’t remember very much from before you turned 4, honestly.’ She answered. “So, how old were you in the dream and why do you think it was a memory?” Easton inquired. “I tried to talk to Kyra and it was like she wasn’t even there. She doesn’t really remember anything from before I was 4, and the bedding was what I had when I was really young, before I even started school. And Mary came in my room at the end.
The Forsaken Daughter 42: Early Morning
Emily POV I quickly picked up my discarded shirt from the night before and slipped it on before going into the bathroom. Easton went to the kitchen, and when I walked in he already had a coffee waiting for me. I gave him a quizzical look. “How do you know how I like my coffee?” Easton smirked and answered, “I saw you make it yesterday morning.” I was a bit shocked because I hadn’t realized he was even paying attention when I made it. “Hmm. Well now I feel bad that I don’t know how you like yours.” I playfully pouted. “Mm, I like mine the same as my Luna.” He replied before he leaned over the counter to give me a chaste kiss. “So, tall and sweet?” I deadpanned. “And strong.” He grinned. I laughed at his answer while Kyra purred in the back of my head. ‘You sure purr like a kitten a whole lot considering you’re a wolf.’ I quipped at her. She ignored my remark, but I could feel her grinning in my mind. “So, Alpha. What’s for breakfast? Sausage or……” I asked, not
The Forsaken Daughter 43: Training
Easton POV I knew it was Ryan at the door. Emily laughed as she scurried off to the bathroom. At least he knocked instead of just entering the apartment, which reminded me that I needed to set up codes for Emily and Hannah today. ‘You can come in now.’ I linked Ryan. The whirring of the lock sounded and Ryan peered his head in when he opened it. “You’re dressed, right?” He asked before walking into the living room. “Why, you don’t want to see me naked first thing in the morning?” I asked as I walked out to the living room. “He might, but I’d rather not.” Hannah laughed out. “Yeah from the smell in here I’d say it’s a good thing you told me to wait.” Ryan said to Hannah as he looked at me. “Why are you here so early in the morning, Ryan?” I questioned. He shrugged as he answered, “Dude. I texted you. We’re going to train this morning before going to the office.” I rolled my eyes as I went back to the kitchen to clean up after breakfast. Ryan and Hannah followed
