Emily

The Present.

Emily woke the next morning with a start. She had barely slept any the night before. Memories were plaguing her mind, plus her run in with Lo the night before hadn’t helped. After a quick shower and breakfast, she and her brothers made their way back to the middle of the community…. back to her trial.

Her brothers had told her the man who she had been calling ‘Red’ was actually named John. However everyone did in fact call him Red because of his hair. They had never met him either until now…. but had heard of him, and believed him to be fair.

Emily certainly hoped so. Reymond, who was head of the council, that Emily knew from past pack meetings was a good man. She knew he would listen to all the facts before forming an opinion. Then there was Red….. whom her brothers believed to be fair.

That left three other council members. The fourth man, who’s name was James Arthur but everyone called Jay was known to be extremely stubborn in his ways. He had staye

    Emily She could see it the moment it happened … when Nick realized what he had said. He’d stuck his foot all the way in his mouth and down his throat. So much that he seemed to start choking and had to cough a moment before he could answer. Emily knew there should’ve been guards there that night. But then so much had happened since then, she’d forgotten to even question it. “Oh yes… well…. They weren’t there.” Nick said. “Where were they?” Reymond asked. “I’m…. Im not sure.” Nick said. “Isn’t that something you ought to know?” Glasses guy asked him. “I’m afraid that seeing my sister on the ground and my mate as her wolf took precedence to everything else.” Nick was getting snappy. “Alright…” Red tried to calm the room down some, “who was supposed to be there?” Nick looked down a moment then said he wasn’t sure. But they had archives of who was on patrol that night…. There were wolves who were members of the guard, they signed a sign up sheet and wrote the area where they w

    LorenzoLorenzo had gone back to the cottage he was staying at after the trial had ended for the day and immersed himself in work. He could really go for a run.. he needed to let his wolf out and stretch his legs. But he knew Nick’s guards would be out and on high alert. Surely they knew there would be many non-pack wolves on his land when there was some event going on. He decided to run up to the pack house and let Reymond- the head of council- know he’d planned to go for a run. That way Nick couldn’t say shit about it. In fact, Nick could take his permission and shove it up his ass. Reymond was absolutely fine with this plan. He told Lorenzo to let any other non-pack members he saw that they could shift and run around the territory at night as well. Lo loved the fact that the council were going over Nick’s head. But that was the law after all. When Lorenzo got back to his cottage something was off. Someone had been there. He sniffed the air, recognizing the owner at the same tim

    Lorenzo He and Janine were still laying on the ground. He didn’t know how long they’d been there but after they’d finished round one.. they went for round two and then three. They were laying there, not talking just enjoying the sounds of the stream trickling when they heard in the distance a sudden ‘POP!’ Lo jumped up looking around. “What was that?” Janine whispered. “Is someone else out here?” It was very possible another wolf or one of Nick’s guards were out… but they were well into the middle of the forest, the guards should be on the perimeter. And it was the middle of the night… it was doubtful another wolf was out so late. “Shhh!” Lo shushed her, listening closely. But he didn’t hear anything else. He turned to Janine. “Maybe we should head back.” He said. So they shifted back into their wolves and started their way back through the forest. After a moment of walking they heard the ‘POP!’ sound again. Something was out there with them… and it was big. The popping s

    Emily THE PAST Emily felt foolish. She’s actually thought the worst was over. The pain she’d been dealing with all day was the most awful thing she’d ever felt. But Elenora had explained to her that was just her insides changing and shifting slightly, getting ready for the rest of her to make the switch. Apparently all wolves had a break period in between the two— thank goddess….. who must’ve known they’d need a moment to rest. Once that was all explained, her father told her it was important that she eat plenty of food to get her strength up. So they went to the kitchen to have some of her birthday cake. She was sore all over. Her body aching in ways she never knew was possible. She was moving slowly.. and sat down in the chair at the table very gingerly. They all sang happy birthday to her. Her father, Maeve and Elenora… and her brothers, who had returned home. They were only missing Lo. After cake her dad, who was a wonderful cook among everything else… fixed up a meal

    Emily The Present. The most amazing news came the next morning. And lucky for Emily it meant she could go back to bed. She had gotten no sleep the night before… after tossing and turning for hours she decided to go on a run. But while she was out she came upon an unfamiliar wolf. Someone that wasn’t part of her pack. Unfortunately for her it turned out to be Janine. There shouldn’t have been any wolves that far into the forest. She made sure she went deep enough in that she wouldn’t run into any guards or scouts… or visitors. Not to mention it was the middle of the night. Of course, Lo was there with her. She hadn’t even been able to scent him because he had Janine’s smell all over him, mixing the two. And she knew what that meant. The thought of Lorenzo and Janine sleeping together made her stomach churn, even if she had no right to feel that way. After that debacle she still couldn’t sleep. Finally around 5 am she drifted off, only to be awoken a couple hours later. It was

    Emily. She and Charlotte walked into the little store where Alice stood behind the counter. She was helping a customer so Emily took a moment to browse the aisles. She got a couple funny looks from some of the people shopping, but after she looked at them right in their eyes, challenging them to say something, they subsided and bowed their heads. She would not hide. Especially here in her own pack that she was Luna of. She was thinking about Charlotte’s father and what happened to him as she browsed. Now that he was gone, her best friend had to go into the towns to purchase the store items. And that made Emily very nervous. She wished there was a better way. “Emily!” She heard Alice say. She walked over and took Emily in her arms, hugging her. She truly loved Alice. She was the best kind of person, loving and loyal. “Hello Alice! How are you?” Emily asked her. “Oh I’m soldiering on dearie. But how are YOU?” She asked, looking at Emily worryingly. Emily smiled at her and

    Emily They were getting ready to leave when Emily remembered she’d brought some flowers for Alice. She had kept some from the ones she and Charlotte had planted around the cabin. “Oh Alice I almost forgot, here we brought you this flowering bush. You can plant it outside or leave it in this pot and keep it inside.” Emily said. “Oh…. Thank you child. But… what is it?” “It’s a rare purple hydrangea.” Emily told her. “It might lose its leaves when it turns really cold but it’ll survive.”“Well it’s beautiful! Thank you dearie! I’m sorry if I seem ungrateful I assure you I’m not. I just thought for a moment you were giving me Monkshood…”. Alice said with a laugh. Emily and Charlotte exchanged looks. “Um no Alice of course not….” Emily said. “Sorry dear, of course not. It does favor it somewhat and I just thought you might’ve gotten it out of Sophia’s garden.” Alice said. Emily stood there a moment, not speaking, a frown etched on her face. Again, she and Charlotte exchanged gl

    EmilyTHE PAST She had swimming in a black hole… at least that’s what it felt like. She was surrounded by darkness. But then suddenly it felt like a vacuum was sucking her out of the pit and she was swept back into the real world. Her eyes popped open and she jerked up from where she had been laying. Someone had put her on the couch. She took deep heavy quick breaths trying to calm herself. What just happened??People were talking but they sounded muffled. Like they were speaking inside a bottle. She looked around and saw everyone staring at her with worried expressions. “What. Happened.” She managed to get out. “You passed out.” Her father told her. “Probably from the pain.” Elenora said. “But we can’t give you the medicine yet… it’ll slow the transition down too much.” Emily felt okay at the moment. She was still dizzy and sore and burning up, but she wasn’t having the horrible pains at the moment. “Okay…..” she said. “I think I’m better now….”But then another pain hit her

    Wedding continued Emily Emily could not stop the waterworks that were happening. Tears streaming down her face as she sobbed at the letter. She sat it down beside her and patted it gently while she tried to calm herself enough to look at the dress. When she pulled it from the box, she immediately began sobbing again. She had never seen anything so beautiful in her life. The dress itself was the lightest pinky-tan color on the bottom. It was sleeveless and the top was fitted and covered with white lace and flowers. The bottom was flowy and had several layers to it. The train was long and white and was also covered with flowers and lace. It was literally enchanting. And absolutely perfect. So she had her dress and decorations and food.. now she needed some bridesmaids. ~~~~~~~~~~When the day finally arrived Emily was a bundle of nerves. As a special gift to her and Lo, her dad had gotten ordained and was going to marry them. When he walked into the room where she was getting

    THE WEDDING EmilyFor the past couple of weeks, she had been working nonstop planning everything. She wasn’t the type of girl who had to have all the bells and whistles and sparkles, however, she did want everything to be perfect for her wedding. When she had married Nick, she had let Susan and Sophia make most of the decisions. And none of it had been what she would have chosen to do… so this time, she got to do it right. She knew they’d need a large area with tons of seating. People from all around would be coming. Several different packs from near and far would attend. People from her home pack of course, even people from Nick’s pack would come. Lorenzo’s pack would’ve filled an entire valley alone. So the first thing she did was find the perfect spot … and surprisingly.. or not.. it ended up being right outside her new cabin. There was a huge open space on one side of it. The other three sides were blocked off by a mountain, a lake, and a forest.. but the front of her house

    Emily Nothing had ever felt as good as this. She didn’t care that sticks and grass were poking into her back. She stared up through the trees to the stars in the sky.. or maybe that was just her vision because she was losing herself. Lo continued his onslaught with his tongue. He licked and sucked and kissed.. he added a finger, then another. She couldn’t be still. It was too much .. it felt too good. She squirmed and whimpered and cried out. “That’s it baby…” he said. Then he went back in… attacking her with his mouth. He slowed down then. Torturing her. But goddess it was good. He lazily flicked at her with his tongue.. every so slowly … growling and causing vibrations as she climbed higher and higher. “Loooo…” she breathed out. “Mmmmmm” he hummed into her. Her body began to shake as she kept going higher and higher. He picked up his speed.. he added another finger. His other hand held her open as he kept going faster and faster and faster…. She went over the edge. She

    Emily Emily couldn’t wait to see Lorenzo. Being away from him for two weeks was killing her. Of course she had enjoyed her time at home. She loved seeing her dad and Brian and Maeve and June. She had gotten to snuggle little Charlie … and it was as if Charlotte was there with her. She wished they could all live in the same pack together. Her and Lo, their children… her brothers and dad and Maeve and now the baby. And Juniper of course. If she could just have them all with her every day.. it would be a little piece of heaven here on earth. She got to tell Andrew that he was officially adopted. They both hugged each other and cried. He asked her if that meant he could call her mom now .. and she smiled so big her cheeks had hurt. “Yes Andrew. You absolutely can call me mom.” It had been a beautiful reunion with all her children. But now she was headed back to Lo’s pack.. which would soon be her own. Alan and Collins were returning as well in a couple of days. Alan stayed a lit

    Lorenzo Emily had been gone back to her pack for only a couple of days, and already he was losing it being away from her. The hole she left behind was sucking the life out of him. He was moody and felt sick.. and bit the head off anyone who looked at him sideways. She would be returning soon… with the kids. He just had to hold off a little longer. He knew she needed this time with her dad and June and the rest of her family. Alan had gone too and taken Collins. Lo still couldn’t get over how that had all worked out but he was glad. Alan was the best fit for Collins. He knew they’d make each other happy, and he was happy for them both. Alan was one of his best friends and had the biggest heart, just like his sister. He was more like a brother to Lo.. him and Brian. Although Emily never got anywhere near the sister category. But they’d grown up together. The truth was Alan and Collins were a perfect fit. They bounced off each other in the best ways. Alan would bring Collins out o

    Emily In the days following her and Lorenzo’s engagement, and their… special time… afterwards, Emily was on cloud nine. She felt a rare peace that she had never had in her life. It was an odd feeling… not worrying, but she was grateful for it. She would be returning home in a couple of days. She had to wrap up some things there and then she would be moving to Lorenzo’s pack… permanently. She was a little nervous of how the kids would do with all the changes. But they could visit her dad and Maeve as much as they wanted to. Speaking of Maeve, Brian had called her that morning with the news. She had gone into labor in the middle of the night, and the baby was here. Emily was so happy for them, they’d both wanted their own child for such a long time. “What did you name her?” Emily asked Brian. Brian paused on the other end of the phone. “How did you know it was a girl? I haven’t even told you that part yet. Emily… did you get one of your feelings about the baby?” He asked nerv

    Emily Her breathing was erratic as she watched Lo watching her. He sat up on his knees and grabbed both of her ankles, yanking her back down. She gasped. “Lo…. What are you doing?” She asked him.. reaching up and touching the mark that was still on her neck. He growled. “I know you want to wait Emily. But I’ve got to touch you. I want to touch you. I … NEED .. to touch you.” He ground out. Her body shivered at his words. Want and need exploded as she released a small moan without meaning to. Lorenzo sniffed the air. He looked at her. She knew he could smell her as his eyes began glowing, his wolf coming forward. She made a pained sound then as he ran his hands up her legs and stopped at the elastic of her pants. Before she knew what was happening .. he had jerked them down to her ankles. She gasped. “Lo….” She said. He growled at her. She plopped her head back down… no longer being able to hold it up as he crawled slowly up to her face. He looked at her and smirk

    Emily The kiss turned frantic, hungry..Emily was clawing her way up Lorenzo’s body. He was so tall she literally tried climbing up. But then he stopped her…“Wait .. I had a whole speech…” he said. She grinned at him. “Okay. Let’s here it.” She said smiling. Lo got back down on one knee. He took her hand and kissed it. Lo down on a knee was still about as tall as Emily he was so huge. She grinned at him waiting. “Emily Caroline Elkwood. I have loved you my entire life. Even before the mate bond, through it and after it. I’ve always loved you. You’re the best part of every day…. you’re the best part of me. You’re my reason. You have the kindest soul of anyone I’ve ever known and the biggest heart there ever was. As bad as it sounds, I’m glad that rogue pack took mine over so I got to come live with you.”Emily had tears in her eyes as he continued. “You’re the most beautiful creature I’ve ever laid my eyes on … but you don’t even realize it. You’re funny. But you don’t know t

    Emily She had spent the entire afternoon with her horse, Storm… riding him and brushing and feeding him. She loved that animal already.. she had been telling the kids and her dad all about him during the phone calls. She got word that Lorenzo wanted her to meet him at the house soon. But she wanted to run back to her room at the pack house and shower first. Her crazy purple hair was still wet we she started out. She figured Lo had wanted to ask her something about the furniture or some of the outside work that the builders were finishing up. She had been in jeans and boots all day while riding so she wanted to dress comfortably. She threw on a long sleeved fitted cropped workout shirt and some sweat pants with her tennis shoes. She grabbed her big puffer coat to head out the door when she stopped. Her breathing got ragged as she looked down at her clothes. This was the exact outfit she had on in the safe room…. With Nick….. with Raleigh…She threw her coat down and immediately
