~Emily~

Emily woke up with her head pounding. A horrible bright light was shining in her eyes, and there was a terrible throbbing in her shoulder.

What happened?

She squinted. She opened her eyes a little bit more. A beeping sound was going off in her ear and she felt like she had tubes coming out of her everywhere.

She tried to move her arm but something was pulling. She looked down and saw an IV was stuck in it. She did have tubes coming out of her.

She was in the hospital.

She turned her head slightly. Brian was sitting in a chair sleeping. She turned her head the other way and there was someone in the other chair beside her.

Lo.

Lorenzo was here.

Didn’t he leave?

“Looo” she croaked out, her voice a hoarse whisper.

Lorenzo’s eyes popped open.

“Emily!” He said. He immediately kissed her on the forehead… and started rubbing her hair. His eyes had tears filling them. But why? She still didn’t remember anything.

Then Brian was there. He pulled her into a hug but she

    Emily~She was in and out. She had no idea how much time had passed. Every time she woke up someone new was sitting with her. After the first few times when her brothers, Lo, and Maeve had been there… she woke up and saw Alice. She immediately began to cry again. As Alice came over and hugged her gently. She had yarn in her hands and she’d been knitting. “Alice I’m sooo sorry..” she spurted out. But Alice wouldn’t hear of it. “Nonsense. None of this is your fault. You just get yourself better sweet girl. Charlottes hanging on. You focus on yourself. And when you get better we will make them pay for what they did.” Emily nodded then drifted back to sleep with tears still coming down her face. They must have been keeping her heavily sedated so she could heal. Still. She drifted. In and out. In and out. Once she woke and saw Nick sitting by her side. He looked horrible, like the entire universe was on his shoulders. “Nick….” “Hey there…” he said, straightening up and wiping

    ~Emily~She told them how they’d picked up goods at the first spot then went to the second one. While they were waiting there the truck pulled up beside them and sat there. She then told them how they’d followed her and Charlotte to their final pick up and blocked them in. She then remembered how they had gotten out and made up a story about looking for someone. “They asked your names?” Ellis questioned. Emily nodded. “And you told them?” Reymond said. “Charlotte did.” Emily said sadly. “What exactly did she say?” Asked Ellis. Emily didn’t know why this mattered but she thought a moment then remembered. “She said we’re Charlotte and Emily.”“So. She didn’t specify which one of you was which?” Asked Ellis. Emily frowned … she didn’t think so. But why would that matter. “Wait. You think…. Oh no. Goddess you think they were after me??” Emily asked, horrified. “We don’t know. We’re just trying to put all the pieces together.” Ellis told her. “Then what happened?” He asked. Emi

    ~Emily~She had just finished eating the beef stew and cornbread her brothers had brought her. She was still mostly in shock about what she’d found out earlier. The men that shot her used silver. They knew. Silver wasn’t as potent to them as the movies and books would make you think. However it was very dangerous. Just like the limestone in the dungeon, it prevented them from healing. It stayed in their blood stream and wound poison them eventually if they didn’t get a antidote quickly. So her being shot with a silver bullet? That was the equivalent of a human being shot with a regular one. That’s why it was taking her so long to heal. Thats why her shoulder was killing her and looked like it had been through a meat grinder. It’s why her arm was messed up.. it had gotten in her bloodstream. That’s why Charlotte was barely hanging on. It had gotten into her heart. She was so angry, and feeling so guilty. When Ellis wanted to know about the men asking their names… she knew they wer

    Lorenzo It had been a few days and Emily was about to get out of the hospital. Charlotte was still the same, no improvements. He knew it was killing Emily. She would be going back to the trial soon. He was torn because he wanted to stay here with her, but he also knew he needed to get back to the pack. He’d only been there for a day before he ran out again. Literally. That was after he had lost his entire mind. He knew something had happened. He knew it had to do with Emily. How he knew that? No idea.. but he ran all the way back to the pack house without stopping. He grabbed his phone and sure enough… tons of missed phone calls and messages. He called her brother and when Brian told him what happened his legs gave way. Luckily his desk was behind him and caught him from all out falling. When he hung up his anger was so out of control he picked up one of the chairs and threw it across the room. Janine heard all this and came to see what was going on. In his inebriated state,

    ~Lorenzo~ He made it back to Emily’s pack in no time. Looking at her in the bed with all the wires hooked up to her physically hurt. He hated it. And someone was going to pay. She kept going in and out for a while. But he was there when she first opened her eyes. It didn’t last long, pretty soon she was back under again. It took a couple days, but finally she was able to sit up and eat and talk. “Lo you didn’t have to come back.. I know your pack needs you. How long were you home for?” She asked him. Lo smirked at her. “A day.” “But I am going back. Just for a while. You’re right they need to see me. But I won’t be gone for long. I promise.”“All this back and forth has got to be killing you.” She said. “Not as much as hearing someone shot you. Not anywhere near as much as that.” He told her. He noticed some folders sitting on the table. “What’s this?” He asked as he grabbed for it. But Emily snatched it away from him. She put one folder in a bag her brothers had brought

    ~Emily~ The last few days had not been easy or good. She had left the hospital, came home to the cabin, her arm still in a sling and her shoulder still killing her. Dr. Pavarti had sent some pills home with her for the pain. She had no idea what was going on with Raleigh, or the rogue wolves in the east, or the guys that shot her. No one would tell her anything. Lo had left… he went back to his pack. She understood why. He was an alpha he couldn’t stay with her all the time. He wasn’t even her mate. She couldn’t even tell him the other day that she might not be Nick’s mate for much longer, especially after all this. She wasn’t a scientist. She didn’t know if their mate bond would even trigger if she and Nick divorced and she denounced him. Although they didn’t really need it to did they? They’d loved each other their whole lives. They had a bond that surpassed the mate bond. Now, since she had showed him the paperwork and he’d told her he thought he had met his second mate…

    ~Emily~She was back in the town hall at her trial. She couldn’t say she had missed this place. Last night after talking with Maeve she couldn’t sleep, even with the pain medicine and sleep medicine the doctor had given her. All she could think about was that the men who had shot Charlotte had most likely been looking for her. It was her fault. Maeve had told her it absolutely was not her fault, and deep down she guessed she knew that but it still stung. And she sure as hell felt guilty. At least she had gotten the information to Ellis that she’d collected. Maybe nothing would ever come of it, who knew. But she had done what she could. Reymond stood up to quiet the crowd. The crowd, which seemed to double in size today. But she also knew a lot of the pack members were there to hear about Raleigh, because it had gotten out that he was in confinement and they all had questions. “If everyone could quiet down and pay attention. I know the past few weeks have been…. Enlightening.. so t

    ~Emily~After she left the town hall she went straight to the hospital to sit with Charlotte. Alice went home to sleep a while so it was just the two of them. Alan left and went to take care of the store while Brian stayed back with the council to discuss everything going on. And Maeve headed home to cook some food for everyone. She held Charlotte’s hand and begged her to wake up. She told her all about Lorenzo visiting and how he’d thought he met his second mate. And how it was killing her inside to think about it. She told her how Caron had stood up and basically threw Nick under the bus. And how sorry she was that someone shot her. When she left Charlotte and was walking down the hallway to leave the hospital she passed a room where a man was sitting up in bed watching tv. She stopped. She backed up and peeked in. He saw her and smiled. “Hello Luna”. He said brightly. She frowned because she didn’t recognize him. “I’m sorry you probably have no idea who I am. I’m Samuel.

    Lorenzo They were coming in the pack house for a break from the rigorous training they’d been doing for a few weeks now. Lorenzo was happy to help train. But at the same time he had other pack duties and responsibilities he needed to be working on. Not to mention his mind was miles and miles away with Emily still. After he’d heard about Charlotte, he wanted to go to her immediately. But because he had been back and forth so much he decided to wait and go for the funeral instead. He had people coming into his territory those days anyway. And he didn’t want to leave Jarvis by himself to deal with all that. He had agreed to house several of the guards from his region that were training for the group that was going to the east. Part of the council had already been to most of the packs in the north, and they needed somewhere to put everybody. So he took in some of them. But that meant housing and food for all these people as well. It was a big undertaking.. and he couldn’t leave and

    Emily ……………….……………….It had been two weeks since that day in the hospital when Charlotte took her last breath holding Emily’s hand. Emily had sat there and cried until Dr. Pavarti came in and unhooked Charlotte from all the machines. Something hit Emily in that moment. And she couldn’t hold it in any longer. She screamed. A painful, heart wrenching sound came from her. She screamed some more. Then she screamed again. She got up and ran out of the hospital into the cold night air. And she screamed some more.People were coming outside that had heard her, she’d woken them up in the middle of the night but she didn’t care. Her brothers and Maeve had come to the hospital too. They must’ve been in the waiting room but she didn’t even see them. They stood behind her not saying anything. Alan was a mess… he really liked Charlotte and Emily had hoped they’d end up mates one day. Alice came outside then, tears running down her face as well. But she was holding it together. Emily d

    Emily She walked back into Charlotte’s room slowly… not wanting to face what the doctor has told her. Pam walked by her on her way out and laid her hand on her arm. “Just in case it’s what we think it is, tell her goodbye Emily. Most people don’t get that chance. But you do. Tell her everything you want.” Pam whispered as she left the room. She repeated basically exactly what the doctor had told her mere seconds ago. She wondered if they’d practiced that. A way to soften the blow when telling people their lives would forever be changed, and not in a good way. Emily was practicality full on sobbing at this point as Alice turned to her and softly smiled. “A-Alice” Emily stuttered between her sobs. “I just can’t accept what they’re say-saying. It can’t be true.” Alice hugged her tightly and then said:“It happened with my mother when she passed. It seems like the same thing to me.”Emily cried harder. “We would need a miracle Emily and I don’t think it’s coming. I’ve said my

    Emily The look on Maeve and Brian’s faces were enough to know it was bad. She didn’t wait on any explanations, or to ask any questions. She just took off running. She ran and ran and ran all the way back into the middle of the territory. Up and down the streets, cutting through woods and peoples yards to get there as fast as she could. She finally saw the hospital up ahead. She slammed through the front door and ran through the waiting room. She kept going. Get to Charlotte. That’s all that mattered. Finally when she got to her room she skidded to a stop. She opened the door and went inside. Dr. Pavarti, Pam, and Alice stood around her bed. Emily closed her eyes, listening. Breaths. Faint but there. She was still alive. “What happened??” Charlotte demanded. At her voice Charlotte’s eyes opened just barely. She had woken up???“Oh goddess!” Emily cried as she ran to the bed. “Charlotte!” She cried and cried and thanked goddess her friend was waking up. “Emily….” Dr. Pavar

    Lorenzo He had been pacing the better part of an hour. After he got a call from Brian, and found out about Emily’s hair-brained scheme… he immediately called her. She had the audacity to act like it wasn’t a big deal and then the little fucker hung up on him. He was so mad he through the lamp sitting on the table across the room. He’d forgotten all about Collins, she sat there wide eyed… as he threw his tantrum. He sighed, rubbed his hand through his hair making it stand every which way then down his face. “Fuck. I am so sorry Collins. You… you didn’t need to see that.” He said. “It’s okay….” She said shaking her head. But it wasn’t. He was her Alpha and she didn’t need to see him losing his shit. Even though he was most definitely losing all of his shit right now. “No. No it’s not okay. I haven’t been a very good Alpha recently. I’ve had a lot going on…..” he began. “Honestly. It’s perfectly fine. You’re frustrated. I get it. You have emotions, that’s normal. It’s good th

    Emily A while later she and Alan were on their way back to the pack, laughing their asses off at how everything went down. It wasn’t what she had expected, that was for sure. But she couldn’t kill a man who had just been protecting his daughter. He was a human, approached by two werewolves that he had no idea even existed… that threatened his little girl. She could understand. Although he could’ve shot the other wolves with the silver bullets the rogues gave him… She did feel better … that was for certain. Now they just had to catch the two rogue wolves. Ellis was already on it… finding their location. She would have to wait a couple days before she could try to get them to let her take care of those two. “Poor mustache.” She said. “Who??” Alan asked. “The guy— mustache. We don’t know his real name.” She answered. “I think his name is pissed his pants”. Alan answered. They both started laughing. Because he did, indeed, piss his pants when she shifted and went up to him. S

    Emily. “Stay back!” The man yelled. The other guy was keeping his eye on Alan who was staring at him so hard Emily half expected lasers to come out of his eyes. “You. Shot. My. Best. Friend.” She ground out. “And me., which I don’t even care about. But when you shot her? You made a big…..huge …. mistake.”“Listen… I didn’t..” the guy tried. But Emily growled again. Both guys watching her now looked like they were about to cry. They might know werewolves existed, but she didn’t think they’d ever seen one shift before. They were too scared. “Wait… please…..” he said. “Who hired you?” She asked him. “I … I don’t know! I never got a name!”“What did they give you? For murdering someone? What did they pay you for that?!” She spat out, her eyes started glowing … her anger getting the best of her. “Please … don’t hurt us. They threatened my daughter!!” The man said. Emily stopped. What did he just say? “What??” She asked him. “Two guys. They’d been coming into the bar where m

    Emily “Alan. Did you catch that scent?” She asked him carefully. He looked at her, knowing exactly what she was saying. “Yes.” He said. “Same ones, right?” She asked. He nodded. In that moment her phone started ringing and the two wolves jerked their heads up. She and Alan crashed down in the seat out of sight while she quickly quieted her phone. She looked to see who was calling. It was Lorenzo. Why would he be calling her… unless….“Shit.” She said. “Brian blabbed to Lo”. She told Alan. “Well may as well call it off now he’ll be here in five minutes.”Of course he couldn’t actually get here that fast. But he would try. She needed to talk to him and calm him down. So as she and Alan were scrunched down in the car hiding she called him back. They rolled up the windows just in case it rang again. They couldn’t hear them talking… but a shrieking phone ring? They could easily hear that. He answered on the first ring. “Lo?” She said quietly. “Please tell me your brother has

    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
