The Wolf Hunter's Mate 16. The least I could do
Emma was silent the entire ride to her new home.Knowing he was demanding too much of her at the moment, Jamie remained silent too. Although he hated putting her in this position, a little part of him couldn’t help but rejoice that he would now have her in his vicinity. He would no longer need any pathetic excuse to see her in the bar or constantly think about her safety. Keeping her close was definitely a decision that arose out of pure concern for her wellbeing, but there must have been a selfish part of him that craved her presence in his life.Jamie was reluctant to address his growing feelings for her as much as he thought it important to kill them. A week ago when he realized that she was his chosen one, he thought it would be easy to dismiss what he felt for her for he prioritized his mission over anything in life.

Emma rushed to close the door as she heard footsteps approaching her. Stepping away from it, she took a seat on the mattress and pretended to be busy with her phone. After several seconds, when the door to her room still didn’t open, she let out a sigh of relief. Jamie wasn’t coming to her, after all.Propelling back on the bed, she stared at the roof in wonder. She couldn’t ignore the conversation she’d overheard between the two friends outside. A funny feeling tugged at her heart, making her question if she indeed realized that Jamie cared about her more than he let on or if she was simply imagining things.If Jamie was truly the beast that she imagined him to be, he would not have come to her rescue last night. He felt responsible for her, and it was the first time any man ever did so much as ca

Emma wiped her tears away in an attempt to console herself. Clearing her throat, she was just about to speak up when his voice reached her.“Emma.” He said in a strict tone, like a parent to a child. “Open the fucking door.”“Go away, Jamie.” She said through a broken voice, “I want to be alone.”For a few seconds, all she heard was silence. She was grateful that he listened to her for once and heaved a sigh of relief. However, it was cut short when she felt another knock on the door. The knocks traveled down the entire surface of the door from above downwards. When it reached her back, the resonance turned dull, and he ceased his movement at once.

The next morning when Emma woke up, Jamie was already preparing himself for a busy day. Having spent the entirety of last night working, he had little energy interacting with her when she waved him a hi in the kitchen. He was just mentally calculating what his day was going to be like when he spotted her, and caught up in his own thoughts, all he could offer to her in kindness was a nod of acknowledgement.Although she was beginning to get more tolerable than most people he interacted with, he wished she would leave him alone at least this morning. He had an important meeting coming up and he wanted his focus to be fixed only on that.“Any news about my job?” She asked, leaning onto the counter top.He ignored how she lazily rubbed the sleep off

Jamie punched the elevator button as he came to stop in front of it.Every time he met his parents, he realized why it was that he preferred to stay away from home. Six years ago, their lives had changed for ever, and none of them ever remained the same. As time progressed, they grew further apart from each other, emotionally more so than physically. His parents were still together, but he doubted their love for each other persisted. His mother was clearly unhappy with how things were in the family, and oftentimes, Jamie suspected that she felt the most lonely.His father took care of all the pack matters and kept her away from duties, for she wasn’t capable of separating emotion from any situation. Owing to this lack of competence, Maria only had time for herself and no idea how to spend it. Perhaps if she had better things to worry about, sh

Although it has been only two days since Jamie promised to find her a position at the Plaza, Emma was growing rather impatient. Her heart was refusing to rest from all the anxious beating, awaiting some good news just as she was. Much to her dismay, Jamie scarcely gave her any time these past couple of days. He left before she woke up and would only return when she was fast asleep.Jamie was a rather reserved person in general, but lately, it looked like he was making extra effort to avoid encountering her. If she didn’t know better, she would have assumed that he was doing it on purpose. The thought crossed her mind several times now, but she always turned her suspicion down by wondering why he would possibly want to ignore her when it was himself that proposed her to live with him. It was only his busy schedule that was to be blamed and nothing else.

The credits were rolling on the TV screen as the front door unlocked. Emma was drifting back from her sleep when Jamie’s face emerged before her, making her blink a couple of times to confirm it was indeed him.“Hey,” She said, her voice groggy, as she sat up on the couch.“You have a room to sleep in.” He said as he turned around to get rid of his shoes.”I was waiting for you, I didn’t mean to fall asleep.” She said, rubbing her eyes.He turned around to eye her with curiosity, “Why?” He said, as he walked to her in slow steps.Shrugging her shoulders, she looked up at him, “Well, about my job of course.”

”Emma, calm down!” Elena exclaimed into the phone, “What did you do?”“I did…” Emma clasped her eyes shut, “Ugh, what was I thinking?”“Emma, tell me what happened. You’re worrying me.” Elena said in a serious tone, as though she was a mother looking to discipline her child.Emma reeled in a deep breath, “I kissed Jamie.”For a few seconds, she was only greeted with silence on the other end. “You did what?”“Yes.” Emma said, “I k

The Wolf Hunter's Mate 117. The better man
Emma released a strangled cry as he neared her. Inching backwards, she tried to get up on her feet and get away from him, but she couldn’t. Before she could do so much as raise up on her feet, he kicked her down, stamping his foot on her chest. Crouching down, he held her hands and pinned them to the ground, rendering her immobile. She widened her eyes as he inched his face closer to her, feeling completely helpless within the confines of his body. “Let me go!” She screamed, eyes filled with fear. “Please!” “You deserve to die in my hands, just like that bastard that tried to take away my daughter.” He said, “These hands have killed so many of you, you think you will be spared my mercy? Never. I’d rather die than let you go.”Raising his knife, he angled it right above her abdomen. Emma’s eyes widened in surprise as she realized what he was doing. Her baby.. No! He couldn’t do that to her baby. “The venom in your body..” He said, “It’s supposed to kill your ability to shift into yo
The Wolf Hunter's Mate 116. Last wishes
Emma released a tearless sob as pushed the flush button on her commode. Leaning back onto her heels, Emma sat down on the bathroom floor as her head began to spin. It was the third time in a row today that she was retching in the bathroom, emptying all of her stomach’s content. She had no clue why she fell so sick suddenly that she couldn’t even keep a glass of water inside her. It was perhaps due to the stress that she’s been experiencing lately, which only aggravated as Jamie left her alone there.She felt her body burn as beads of sweat collected on her forehead. Wiping it off, she slowly reached for the wall for support and brought herself to stand on her feet. Although wobbly, she made her way to the basin and ran the tap, splashing some water on her tired face. As she looked into the mirror, she realized that she looked hideous. Dark circles covered the skin under her eyes as her face shrunk to reveal her bones. She looked visibly dehydrated, in desperate need of help and rest.
The Wolf Hunter's Mate 115. On your side
The emotion within Jamie swirled in all its fury, growing so magnanimous that he struggled to contain it within himself. He felt himself shake, growing suffocated with each passing second. He could no longer stay in the room. His feet took him away from his mother, going to the window. As he reached it, he swung them open and shoved his head out, reeling in a deep breath. He felt beads of sweat trickle down his forehead and along the tip of his cold nose. She felt a touch on his shoulder then, urging him to turn around but he resisted. “Jamie, please.” His mother sobbed, “Look at me.” “Get out of here.” He said in a low voice. “Jamie…” “I don't want to look at you.” He said, whirling around. “You and your husband, what a fucked up pair you are. One kills his own child and the other covers for him. That was bloody loyal of you, mother.” “What else was I supposed to do?” She cried, “If I had revealed the truth to you, he would’ve killed me too.” Jamie scoffed, looking away. There
The Wolf Hunter's Mate 114. A hidden truth
Jamie could hardly get the scenes of that afternoon out of his mind. Any lingering hope he had regarding his father instantly diminished as he realized up to what extent he was willing to go to keep the aims of the brotherhood fulfilled. As he rolled on his bed, he realized that perhaps he made a mistake coming here, for he could now see the true nature of his father. At least if he was away, he could have found comfort in the misbelief that his father was a good man, a man who had the heart to at least spare some mercy on an unborn child. But now, he was facing the dark reality he would prefer to have avoided. He didn’t need to know that his father had zero regard for what Jamie wanted and cherished. His aim was more important to him than Jamie’s happiness, and if it meant killing his wife and child for it, then so be it. “You cannot let a rogue carry your child, Jamie. How could you have made that mistake?” His father had said that afternoon. “She is my wife.” He said. “That is
The Wolf Hunter's Mate 113. Move his heart
The tension in the air was palpable, making Jamie remain alert to every small movement. The familiar scent of wood and musk was hardly making him feel at home, rather, he felt out of place. Although it had been a mere few days since he was last at this place, it felt like an eternity ago, merely in the wake of everything that had happened in the past few days. Jamie shoved his hands into his pants pockets as he looked over the view from the window, watching over the people that roamed around in their backyard. Nothing was out of the ordinary, but it felt so different to his people once again. When he first arrived at his father’s house, he was greeted by the same people he once assumed to be his loyal friends. Just in a matter of a week, they revealed their true colors and proved to him that they would always remain loyal to the pack and its leadership. He knew he couldn’t blame them, for they were merely doing their job, but he couldn’t help the distaste he’s developed against them
The Wolf Hunter's Mate 112. I'll come back for you
Goodbyes were never easy. There was seldom anything good about your loved one leaving you. Whether it was to reach better places or to go back to fix things in the past, a departure always came with a possibility that the distance they’re going to create between them might be permanent. A harmless journey once took her entire family away from her, and she had no reason to believe that it might never happen again.As Emma watched him pull the zipper of his bag close, she realized that it was time. When he first broke the news that he would be going back home to settle things with his father, she was elated. It was precisely what she wanted him to do and she was glad he made up his mind without her having to reopen the conversation. However, as the night progressed, the reality of it sank in, a new fear creeped inside her. She struggled to accept that he was going to come back to her within a few days as promised, and instead, her mind tried its best to convince her that nothing in her
The Wolf Hunter's Mate 111. His world
“How are things faring?” Jamie said as he overlooked the lush greens of the mountain top. He had just stepped out to have a word with Rafa while Emma got busy with preparing dinner for the two. After reaching their new house, the two of them were occupied with cleaning it and making it comfortable for use for a few days. Since it was rather cold than at home, Jamie had to step out into the forest to find some wood for the fire. After it was all set up, Jamie received a message from Rafa that things have calmed down and that he could reach him whenever he pleased. Jamie instantly stepped out as he was eager to know what happened. “It was alright.” Rafa replied, “The men have arrived a few minutes after you have left and were surprised that we have managed to get you out of here. We tried to sell them some bullshit, but they obviously didn’t fall for it. They could understand that we planned your escape, but that was about it. They couldn’t do anything more than that. However, I did s
The Wolf Hunter's Mate 110. Run
As the night progressed, Emma lost track of time. Jamie refused to give in to her demands, yet kept her in a constant high throughout. Sparing no mercy for her desperation, he had his way with her, and by the end of it, they both collapsed on the bed. The last memory she had was of Jamie pulling her back against his chest, burying his face in her neck as he whispered to her, “I love you.”She fell into a peaceful slumber after that, chasing her dreams in the darkness. When she was next transported back into reality, she jolted awake to the someone banging on the door. She woke up with a gasp, looking at Jamie who had just risen up. Pushing the duvet off his body, he quickly donned his shorts and headed to the door. Light flooded into their room as he opened the door and the person on the other side started speaking. Emma remained submerged under the duvet and closely watched them, trying to listen to their words. However, she could barely make out anything and only deduced that ther
The Wolf Hunter's Mate 109. Worthwhile
“Sleeping without me?” He asked as he pulled his shirt over his head, revealing his bare skin underneath. Emma watched as he proceeded to unhook his pants next, pulling them down his legs, “I thought you were avoiding me.” “I was.” He said as he climbed into the bed and then onto her. Careful not to crush her under his weight, he pulled her legs apart and wrapped it on either side of his hips. Leaning down, he stole a kiss from her lips. “I’m sorry,” She said, “It was not my intention to-” “I know what your intention was,” He said, cutting her off with his lips, “And I’m not angry with you.” “Then why didn’t you come up to meet me?” “I was busy with something else,” He said, “And I needed some time to contemplate what you said.” Emma looked up at him in puzzlement, awaiting him to elaborate. He rolled beside her and pulled him along so that she could be sprawled across his body. Resting her head atop of his shoulder, he planted a gentle kiss on her forehead. “I realized that y
