Chapter 28

Emma marched forward to her room. She didn’t know what was wrong with the twins or why they thought they could transform their aggression on her. She walked to her bed and fell down heavily on it, her eyes magnetized to the ceiling.

Obviously, she didn’t know why she suddenly missed her parent so much. She wished she could go back home, but she had already set her leg into this, and there was no way of going back.

“I miss you, Mom,” she muttered, her heart freezing with different types of questions. Maybe if she was still with her mom, she wouldn’t be facing all this nonsense from those dramatic twins.

Suddenly, her phone vibrated, and she flinched, sitting up on the bed and holding her chest. She was scared for a second.

She picked up the phone and realized it was Damien calling. Happily, she slid the green button and pressed the phone against her right ear.

“Hello, Damien,” she whispered happily.

“Emma, how are you doing? I heard you moved to the pack. You didn’t even think to inform me. Is that how it is?” Damien asked on the other line.

Emma inhaled loudly. “Trust me, I didn’t want any of this, and I didn’t plan for any of this. But I had no other option. But I won’t lie… I miss you. This place feels more like a prison,” she admitted in a low voice, praying inwardly that nobody would hear her from outside.

“Is that so? You know your mom said you can come back home anytime if you feel ignored or overly threatened at the pack. Don’t overstress yourself because of anything, okay?” Damien said.

Emma nodded, even though he couldn’t see her. “I know.”

“So, when are you coming back? Or are you not coming back again?” Emma asked, raising an eyebrow.

“Of course, I’m going to come back and check up on you. I’ve just been really busy these days. But as soon as I get the chance, I’ll visit you, okay?”

“Okay, I’m going to trust that,” I replied happily.

“Okay, I have to go now. Talk to you later. Bye.”

He didn’t give her the opportunity to reply before he hung up. Emma stared at the screen, almost feeling like she could see through it to him.

She dropped the phone, scratching her body tiredly. Just then, she heard a knock on the door, Emma froze on the spot, wondering who it could be.

She counted her steps toward the door and opened it slightly, only to find the twins standing there, their angry eyes piercing through her. She wanted to close the door immediately, but they were quick to yank it open. The door swung fully, slamming against her hand, but they just pretended everything was okay even though her hand was burning with pain.

“What do you think you are doing? Don’t you even have respect for any of us? Did you forget we are your Alphas?” Kale asked, his brows furrowing.

Emma inhaled sharply. “Of course, I know that you are my Alphas, and you deserve every respect from me. But still, I don’t think you have the right to just come to my room, knock, and then force your way in. Just because I opened the door doesn’t mean I can’t close it. At least, this is my room. This is my territory, and I have every right to protect what belongs to me,” she replied, her eyes lowering to the floor.

The two went silent for a second, and it was only Kale’s scoff that made her raise head momentarily before she dropped it back.

“So, you’re defying us, right?” he asked.

She quickly shook her head. “Of course not. I wouldn’t dare,” she replied, hoping that would settle their mind and they’d let the conversation slide.

But the two didn’t seem like they were here just to exchange words.

“Anyway, we are here to give you your final warning,” Kale muttered, his voice cold. “As I’ve said before, you don’t smell like my mate, and I would never pray for the Moon Goddess to make you my mate—or my twin’s. So listen up. Anything that will make us cross paths in this pack, make sure you ignore it. Make sure you don’t come near me in any way, especially in private. If such a thing happens, I will punish you in a way you will never forget in your life… perhaps even in a way that takes your life.”

Kale’s threat made Emma heart pound faster. She wanted to reply, but before she could open her lips, Jayden’s voice roared through the room.

“And that’s it. You know I don’t like talking too much. What my twin said is a fact. If we catch you poking your nose where it doesn’t belong, going where you shouldn’t go, or stalking us, that will be the end of you. Forget that our father is backing you up like a kid. If you dare cross my path or step on my tail, I will make sure you smell your own hell,” Jaden added.

Emma was lost of words for a second, but she couldn’t just let them say whatever they wanted and get away with it.

She lifted head, glaring at the two of them in annoyance. “Is that all?” She asked.

The two looked shocked for a moment.

“If that’s all, then that’s it. I’ll make sure to follow each of your rules. I won’t cross paths with you. I won’t meddle in your business. I will make sure to avoid you in every way. So if that’s all, we can end this conversation right here,” she smile wickedly.

She didn’t wait for the twins to respond she slammed slammed the door in their faces.

She inhaled loudly staring at the door as if it was the twins. 

“Let keep the calm,” she turned and walk to sit in the bed with her heart still racing heavily.
