Felix was her husband’s second in command, the pack’s beta. He had never liked Emily. She didn’t know why, she had only ever been nice and respectful towards him. But he had never approved of her. He had always looked at her with disdain and hatred, and didn’t respect her authority. When it was time for the lashes, he didn’t hold back. In fact, she thought he would’ve kept on going if Nick hadn’t told him to stop. Whatever the reason, Emily was sure Felix was feeling quite proud of himself in this moment. She heard the door open and a moment later a small figure was walking up to her cell. “Luca!” She said seeing her son. The guard unlocked her cell to let him enter. He had brought a salve for her cuts. She wondered if Nick had ordered him to do this, probably the opposite. Nick had always spoken to their son as if he was grown. She hated that he put so much pressure on him, he was still just a child. But he was heir to their little kingdom, and Nick wanted him to be taught the ins and outs of alpha life as soon as he was old enough to understand what they were. “I brought you some medicine.” He told her. “Thank you, Luca.” She said. Emily reached for him, but he moved back quickly. “What’s wrong Luca?” “Did you do it?” He asked her. “Did you really kill Aunt Susan?” Emily sighed and closed her eyes. She felt that Luca was way too young to understand any of this.. but his father had insisted on him growing up quickly and had too many adult conversations in front of him. So she decided to tell him the truth. “Yes Luca, I did.” Her son looked down defeated. “But there’s so much more to this that you don’t know yet.” Luca looked at her, a confused look on his face, he slowly began shaking his head. “Aunt Susan loved me.. she always brought me presents and let Andrew come and play.” “I know this is hard to understand.. but Susan wasn’t who you thought she was.” Emily explained. Still, Luca didn’t look convinced. She supposed it was a difficult thing to take in at seven years old. Susan had been nothing but nice to him and Olivia… and now Emily was telling him she wasn’t a good person. “When I become alpha nobody will die. Nobody will kill anyone. I won’t allow it.” Emily smiled at her son. If only it were that easy, she thought. But she didn’t want to dispel his dreams of a peaceful future, so she kept quiet. “Mom… Andrew was gonna be alpha too just like me. But his daddy kicked them out, and he was really sad about it. So I decided to make him my beta.” Luca was telling her. Emily got tears in her eyes. It was always the children that suffered from the sins of the adults. The people that were meant to protect them, always ended up causing the most harm. Still. She couldn’t find it in herself to feel bad about what she had done. She loved Andrew, he was her nephew after all. But she hated Susan with such a passion it outweighed everything else. “I’m sorry Luca,” she began saying. “I know you don’t understand everything right now….” But Luca interrupted her. “You took that away from him, mom. Now he doesn’t get to be alpha.. because his dad kicked them out of the pack.. and now he can’t even be my beta.. because you killed his mom!” Werewolf law forbade orphans from being high ranking officials. So no matter that Andrew had been the son and nephew of alphas, he could never be beta. Unless of course his father, Caron , decided to take ownership and claim him as his own again. Emily didn’t know if that would happen or not… she wasn’t sure what kind of man Caron was as she didn’t know him that well. But all of that would play out in the future, whatever happened.. there was no use worrying about it now. She could see that Luca was getting increasingly upset, and she started to reach over and take him in her arms when the door opened once more.

Emily Nick walked down the stairs into the dim lights overhead. He took one look at the scene before him and told Luca to go back to the house and watch his sister. Luca immediately got up and ran out, not saying goodbye to Emily. Emily looked at her husband with disgust. Even though he was her mate, she was finding it increasingly difficult to feel any sort of love for him anymore. The pull that had been there in the beginning, was almost gone. Too much had happened, and he had turned into someone she didn’t like, much less want to be in the same tiny cell with. “Do you regret it?” He asked her simply. Emily scoffed. “No, Nick, I do not regret it. I would do it again in a heartbeat. I would take the lashings again, I would sit in this cold damp disgusting cell again. I would take whatever punishment you throw my way AGAIN!” She yelled at him. “Besides you don’t even know what happened. You never once asked me… you never once stopped to think of any other scenario exc

Nicklaus Nick went back to the pack house after speaking with Emily. He needed to check on his mother, Sophia, who had been very frail for a long time, but had gotten worse since the death of her daughter. Once he and Emily had married, he had set her up in a beautiful cabin just a mile away from his home. But when she became increasingly sick, he moved her back into the pack house with him and his family so he would be close in case she needed him. His mother had once been a powerful Luna, standing side by side with his father for years as they headed up the pack. And when his father had died from an ongoing illness.. she still continued to take care of the Luna duties. Nick had been very young when his father passed and he became the official Alpha. He was merely 14 years old… and barely had become a full wolf just a year prior. So Sophia had mostly ran things until he was older. Years later he met Emily.. they married and mated and she became official Luna. Nicklaus knew

Emily Emily didn’t know how long she had been in the cell. She couldn’t see daylight and she was only brought one meal a day. This was of course to keep her weak, and keep her from being able to shift. Oh how she would love to shift and be able to run through the woods. Stretching her legs and being out in the open cold air sounded heavenly. Emily’s wolf was beautiful. Her white-blonde hair had nothing on her solid white wolf fur. And she was large. Her lineage made sure of that. Her father had been a very powerful alpha himself. And when she married Nick and became Luna, it only added to her power. A power that she would always keep, no matter what happened. She was lucky in that way, she guessed. Because her family was so strong.. and important. They were the oldest family of wolves in all of the Americas… dating back to the beginning of their kind. Her ancestors had been some of the first. That day she was allowed to bathe, if you could call it that. The guards brough

Lorenzo (Lo)Lorenzo stood watching the side of the building, waiting for Emily to come around. He could smell her, though faintly, the moment he had gotten there. Her scent was strong.. and amazing… by far the best thing he had ever come across in his life. When she was within a few miles of him, he could pick up on it. It was something like fall leaves and cinnamon, with snow and embers of a fire, and then that little something extra that was just her. Exquisite. Werewolf scents were interesting things. Each pack had its own scent.. with each member of said pack carrying those smells along with a little of “them” so each person was individualized. They each had a little something extra to set themselves apart from everyone else. That particular scent couldn’t be described in words though… there was nothing to compare that part of a wolf to. It was kind of like twins, or triplets. They all looked the same, but maybe one had different color eyes… maybe one had a freckle of their

Lorenzo When he had heard the news about Emily it took everything in his power not to tear the world down getting to her. He was barely twenty three years old in wolf years, but he had the power of a decades old alpha. If she had done what they were accusing her of, then she had a damn good reason. Emily was strong.. she always had been. But she had the kindest and most loving heart of anyone he knew. She would never take another life unless it was deserved. She was getting closer.. he could tell. Her smell was getting stronger and the hairs on his arms were beginning to stand up. His body was vibrating and his wolf was pushing on the inside…. wanting to come out. Whereas Emily’s wolf was large and majestic, beautiful, and the most mesmerizing silvery white like the snow color, Lorenzo’s was exactly the opposite. With his shaggy dark hair and light brown skin, his wolf was the blackest of black. And he made about two of Emily, as big as she was. And where her eyes were a gorgeo

Emily She sat there.. shocked at what she was witnessing as Luca, sweet little Luca was standing in front of everyone at her trial, announcing why they were there. She looked over at Nicklaus and began to snarl at him.. her wolf eager. Even though he was her mate.. she felt no love towards him at this moment. He had done this.. he had made Luca stand up there. Hell it was probably Sophia’s idea. That woman was the root of all evil. She turned and looked behind her, seeing Olivia sitting there with Andrew. They both looked like lost pups. Olivia had no idea what was going on and poor Andrew.. he was staring at his dad, Caron, no doubt thrilled to see him after so long. But Caron wouldn’t even look at him. Which caused Emily to further believe that he suspected Andrew wasn’t even his child. She shook her head. What a mess. Maybe she shouldn’t have done what she did. Maybe she shouldn’t have let her feelings and emotions get the best of her.. No. No matter what.. she did the righ

Emily After a few more documents were read and a few more official things were said the director introduced the rest of the council. She recognized two of them, and two she did not. She felt a little put off by the fact there were no women sitting up there… and her fate would be left up to these five men. But what did she expect. Then the director called Nicklaus to come to the front of the room. Emily had such mixed feelings for him at the moment. As much as she hated him, for keeping secrets and lying to her, and the way he had treated her…..and what he was doing to Luca… he was still her mate. And while she certainly didn’t feel the same connection that she once had… or the pull to him anymore.. she still had some love for him deep inside her. Emily reached up and felt the mark that ran up the side of her neck, the one from the bite he had given her when they mated. It used to tingle and spark when either she or Nick touched it but now.. now it was just a dull ache. She look

LorenzoHe was going to kill half of the wolves in this room before it was over with. Starting with Nick… who tried so hard to keep his wife and pack ‘in check’ that he forgot about common decency. He clearly hadn’t even seen what happened between Emily and Susan yet he ordered her to be struck with lashes and to a trial? Not to mention his beta, Felix, who Lorenzo currently was imagining punching his skull in. He spent the entire time they’d been in there staring at Emily. When she finally looked at him he had the fucking audacity to wink at her. Lo almost came out of his seat at that. His teeth began to protrude as his K9’s started to come forward. A low menacing snarl left his throat. A few people sitting around him kept watching him out of the sides of their eyes. He guessed they worried what he might do. But he didn’t care. He was an inch away from losing it and he dared someone to say something. The third man sitting at the table in the front of the room said he had no

Emily She and Alan had made it into the human town. Being there was making her feel sick, and making her think about the trip here with Charlotte. They’d passed the tattoo shop where they’d gotten matching tattoos… and the place where they got their hair cuts. She was getting angrier and angrier the more she remembered everything. Now they were in the next town. The one where the guys had first shown up. She knew the addresses that Ellis had given her, where the men had been seen… at least allegedly. But just as a precaution she wanted to go to the loading docks where she and Charlotte had gone. Alan argued they were probably only there to follow them, and she knew as much. But she wasn’t leaving a stone unturned. But they weren’t there. She even stopped and asked a few people if they’d seen the truck the guy drove. So they headed to the first address, which was a house. But when they got there no one was home. The next place was a bar type restaurant where Emily had planned to

~Lorenzo~He and Collins walked out into the huge great room in the pack house. The fire was burning warmly and a few of the pack members were mulling around. He could breathe out here. Being in that little room with her was more than he could take. She sat down on the huge leather sectional that sat in front of the fireplace, while Lo still kept his distance and went and stood by the fire. “Now. What did you say you needed help with?” He asked her. She finally looked at him and bit her lip as if she was afraid to ask anything now. She really needed to stop biting her lip. He zeroed in on the movement, his eyes darkening. “Oh um. Right. So. I want to apply for college in the town.. I went to the human college in our old pack… and I need to get my transcripts sent over here… and yeah so anyway I don’t want to lose all the hours and classes I’ve already taken so I want to hurry and get in before the next semester starts. But when I asked your beta if he could get me some informat

~Emily~ The next day after the trail she and Alan were ready to put their plan in motion. They didn’t tell Brian anything, except they were going to Alice’s store. They would apologize later. They drove right by the scouts at the gate as Emily smiled at them and they waved them on through. “So how’d you manage this?” Alan asked her. “Ellis.” She said simply. Alan jerked his head and looked at her. “He knows??” She just grinned at him and kept driving. When she had told Ellis her plan he wasn’t necessarily on board with it. But he also knew she’d find a way with or without his help. “Emily we don’t know everything yet. These people are dangerous. And we don’t know who hired them.” He had said. “But we’ve got a good idea.” She said. “Yes… but we also need to prove it. And the only way to do that is some kind of concrete evidence. Even if you can get them to tell you it’s still just here say. We need some sort of digital or paper footprint to prove it.” She nodded her head un

~Lorenzo~ It had been several days since he’d spoken to Emily. He wanted to call her but he didn’t want to make things worse. He knew she needed him there, and he had to be here. There wasn’t anything he could do at the moment. But he felt like he’d abandoned her. He had spoken to Brian a couple times and gotten the latest that was going on. Alan had been busy taking care of the store for Alice so he hadn’t talked to him. And hearing Emily’s voice would probably just set him into high gear to go right back to her. So he hadn’t called her. And she hadn’t either. Maybe it was for the best for them to spend a little time away from each other. But it was killing him just the same. Cyrus — Mr. Manning— had come by and agreed to take the job as trainer. Lorenzo told him if he decided he didn’t want to do it, he could probably find a place for him to train here in his pack. But he knew how important this job was, so he had agreed. He told his family as little as possible about wha

~Emily~ The following day after the trial she was going to pull her brother aside and ask him to help her. She had spent the entirety of yesterday afternoon and last night planning. She knew she was taking a risk but she didn’t care. She was going to get some answers. As she started to leave the town hall once they’d dismissed, Ellis asked her to come to his office. He wanted to show her something. “I must ask that we keep this between us for now.” He told her as she nodded. “The day I went and searched the area where the fight was… I found something. I haven’t told anyone except Reymond and Red. I was going to tell you soon but… you went out of town then everything with the shooting happened. I wanted to give you some time before adding this to your plate.” He told her. That means whatever he found was bad. She thought. “Okay.” She said. He got out a key and unlocked the bottom drawer of the desk. He pulled out something wrapped in cloth with a string tied around it and l

~Emily~She was anxious for the trial to end that morning. She needed to go home and make a plan. She knew what she was going to do she just didn’t know how. She also needed someone to go with her, someone she could trust… but also someone that wouldn’t try and talk her out of it. Brian most definitely would. He’d tie her to the chair if she so much as gave a hint what she was planning. And no way was she going to involve Maeve with her being pregnant. Lorenzo was gone. He would never allow her to do it either anyway. So that brought her to Alan. The council had called someone forward while she was lost in her own head and she was shocked when she looked up and saw Samuel standing there. He looked much better than he did a few days ago. She wondered if Dr. Pavarti had listened to her suggestion… and if that’s why Samuel was standing there right now. She exchanged a look with Ellis, who slowly shook his head….She understood. They wouldn’t mention anything or ask him questions the

~Emily~THE PRESENT She hadn’t left Charlotte’s side in hours. Alice and Dr. Pavarti were currently discussing the possibility of moving her into the towns hospital. But was that even safe? They hadn’t caught the men who had done this yet. What if they had someone on the inside and found out they were moving her? But he had given her the treatment for the silver. It was her heart that was the major problem now. She’s been shot literally right through it. The bullet that had passed through her upper shoulder and hit Emily had barely even hurt her because of the angle it had gone in. Alice came back inside the room then. She looked at Emily and took her hand. “You need to go home and get some rest.” She told her. But Emily shook her head. “You go rest, Alice. I’ll stay here.”Alice just smiled and sat down beside her. Emily began to cry. “It’s all my fault.” She said. Alice reached over and rubbed her head and hair. A tear fell down her cheek. “Emily. I want you to listen

~Nick~THE PAST He sat by the hospital bed holding on to Emily’s hand. The machines she was hooked up to were beeping, wires were coming out of her body everywhere. The smell of bleach and medicine and cleansing agents was stinging his nose. He stared at Emily.. her hair in tangles, some blood was dried on her neck from the wreck.. she was still beautiful. She looked peaceful laying there, although he knew she was probably being plagued with dreams that were anything but. Please wake up. Please wake up. He thought. The ambulance had come after the wreck and transported her to a human hospital. He wished he could take her back to the pack hospital but he didn’t know how to do that without raising suspicion. They’d been taking good care of her here though. Charlotte had insisted on coming with him. And you couldn’t tell that girl anything once she’d set her mind to it. But it had taken them a few hours to figure out where she was. He had finally pinged her phone location..

~Emily~THE PAST She and Nick were expecting their first baby. She was so happy and excited and so was he. Emily knew Nick wanted an heir. But she also knew he was just happy to have a child with her. Her and Charlotte had been busy decorating the nursery in between all the other pack duties she now had. But she loved it. Emily was in her element. Although it was a lot of work… it made her feel fulfilled. She had only just found out about a month ago… but she had been dying to tell people. The morning sickness probably made it obvious to some. She and Nick were supposed to be traveling to the Whitetail pack that day. It was to be a quick turn around trip… only to get some paperwork from Caron that Nick didn’t trust to send through a courier. He had said it would be a fun little get away just for the two of them. He could see his sister and feel safe that he had the papers. Emily could care less about seeing Susan. But she had agreed to go with him anyway. But the night befor
