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

    Emily THE PAST A bee was stinging her. A gigantic bee fromthe feel of it. She tried to swat it away but someone grabbed her hands. She came to just as Elenora was finishing the first shot. She’d put it right in Emily’s stomach, and Maeve was holding her arms down. Another blast of pain hit her then. This time in her upper body. Her shoulders and neck felt like they were on fire. “Aarrggghhh!” She screamed. Oh goddess when would this ever end. She was writhing in the floor, nothing was giving her any kind of relief. She had to do this. She had to make it. She knew after the first shift that each subsequent one would be easier and quicker. She remembered from her brothers doing it. Like them, she didn’t stay and watch the first one. In fact her father wouldn’t let her anywhere near them… he’d been afraid it would scare her too much. But by the second time, it had been loads easier. They’d told her the second shift went about 2/3 faster and hurt 2/3 less than the first one. Th

    EmilyThe Present. The following day they’d planned to spend at the lake. Her brothers were going to cook out and later they would go for a run and then watch a movie. It would be the perfect day… hopefully. That morning after breakfast Charlotte came over and they all went out behind Emily’s cabin to the lake. It was pretty cold so they couldn’t get in but they could still enjoy it. “So what movie are we going to watch tonight?” Charlotte asked no one in particular. “Oohh something scary.” Emily said. “I was thinking we could watch Twilight.” Alan spoke up. They all busted out laughing at this. Emily wanted to enjoy the day as much as possible because tomorrow, she’d be back at her trial. So she decided to go in and fix everyone a drink. While she was there someone knocked on the door. She thought it might be Lo, until she caught the scent. Emily dropped what she was doing and rushed to the door, jerking it open before they had a chance to knock again. “Hi sister!” “Maeve

    Emily After they’d all had a good laugh at Alan they started making dinner. The boys were grilling steaks while the girls made the drinks and the sides. Emily’s mouth was watering as the smell of the grill wafted through her cabin. She built a fire in the fireplace and they all sat around the table to eat. Halfway through the meal Alan, who they were still making fun of, said he had gone over today to invite Lorenzo to come eat with them. Emily popped her head up at this. “He didn’t want to come?” She asked. “Don’t know… he wasn’t there.” Alan told her. “Oh…” she said. “He’s gone.” Alan continued. What? Gone? “What do you mean?” Emily asked him. “He left. He’s gone.” Emily dropped her fork and everyone stopped eating to look at her. He’s gone?? No. Surely not. He wouldn’t leave without saying goodbye to her, would he? In the middle of her trial? Was this because of what had happened last night… she wondered. Maybe she had upset him by what she said about Janine. Or ma

    Emily THE PAST She couldn’t believe it. She’d made it through her first shift. Once she got a little acclimated, she noticed everyone was staring at her and not saying anything. And because she couldn’t actually speak she tilted her head at them. “Emily…. It’s…. You’re incredible.” Her dad told her. “So much like your mother.”Nothing her dad could ever say would make her prouder than those words. “Erm.. Emily… here come look in the mirror”. Maeve was telling her. It took her a second to get her legs to work, but once she took a couple steps it was like she’d been doing it her entire life. When she got to the mirror, she was absolutely shocked at what she saw. Surely this wasn’t right… someone was playing an elaborate trick on her. Because there in the reflection, was the most beautiful amazing wolf she’d ever seen. She was huge, first of all. Well over twice as big as most wolves her age. Then there was her color… a sparkling, bright, silver white. The rarest of all the colo

    Emily The Present. Emily was very much dreading court that day for whatever reason. Maybe because she had gotten two days off to spend with her family… maybe because she had such a wonderful time those two days. The freedom she had held on to so tightly, in the event that she lost it all after this trial… was lingering. Or maybe it was because she knew Lorenzo wouldn’t be there. The last time in court they’d told Nicklaus to bring the scheduling forms. These told the names of the guards and scouts and what location they were assigned to and what time. She wondered if he would produce the paperwork like they’d asked for. She didn’t have to wait long as it was the first thing that Reymond, head of council brought up. Surprisingly Nick did indeed have the papers. He brought them to the front of the room and gave them to Reymond. “I assume you’ve already checked this? As your memory didn’t serve you as who was supposed to be at that post where you found your wife and sister?” Reym

    Emily. The other wolf who had been on patrol that night was named Samuel. He was still pretty young and impressionable.. and a new guard. He was still in the training phases. So she wasn’t surprised when the fourth man on the council… Jay…. asked if he was present and Nick said no. “And where is he?” Jay asked. “He is unfortunately indisposed at the moment. He came down with a severe sickness and is in the doctors quarters. The doctors quarters was the wolves equivalent of a human hospital. Although it was much smaller. They didn’t need anything big though because of their healing abilities…. they seldomly had to go to such extremes. And their “hospital” included only one doctor.. the pack doctor that took care of an entire community of werewolves. And then of course there were one or two nurses.Emily thought that was awfully convenient that he’d suddenly come down with a mysterious illness. She often wondered what lengths Nick’s family would go to in order to stay in their pos

    Emily Emily sat back in her seat and smiled just slightly. She had wondered if Felix would lie straight to the councils face… but even he wasn’t immune to their power. She peeked over at Nick who looked somewhat angry, as she assumed he would. “Why not?” Asked Red, looking over to Emily while speaking to Felix. “ We were told it was because she had been gone. It was the first day of the week and she would continue doing the schedules when she returned.” Felix said. Emily had gone to visit her father and brothers in the days before this. She had returned to the pack the first night of that week, so the list had already been done. “So who made the list then?” Red asked. Emily noticed that only Reymond, Red, and the glasses guy were the ones who ever really asked questions. Jay, the older fourth man barely spoke, and she hadn’t heard the third man say anything at all. The third man on the council was a dark skinned, dark haired wolf named Amund. She knew of him in the same way s

    Epilogue Emily The last few months had been the happiest in her life. She was overcome each and every day with the amount of peace and love she felt all around her. The pack had taken to her immediately. Everyone had each others backs here… everyone looked out for one another. There was no backstabbing and no secret plans of takeovers. She wasn’t worried constantly about someone trying to kill her. And .. best of all .. she had Lo. She had him all the time. Gone were the days of him having to leave. No more waiting weeks or months or years to see him. He was always there. She was settling into her Luna duties easily. She had done them for so long there wasn’t much to learn. The only difference was the Crow pack was massive in size compared to Nick’s pack. It was even bigger than her home pack so there was a lot of work to be done. But she didn’t mind it. Emily looked down at her arm.. the small crow tattoo looking back at her. She had gotten it right after the wedding. She sti

    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
