And left it as empty as it was supposed to be. Just like one half of my heart. Asshole. Gasping again, she stomps her foot as the spoiled teen she is. “You never told me!” “Of course, we didn’t, Sese,” I chuckle as I pull myself up into the tree house. “It was our special hiding place.” She pou
Emma - Present I groan as I open my eyes, the whiteness of the room making it hard for my sight to focus. Sensing feeble sparks running from my hand along my arm, I squirm in my bed and turn my head to look down at my body. “Hey,” Kai looks at me with a worried expression, leaning in to get into
One of the doctors pierces the tube running into my wrist with a syringe, injecting a bluish serum. I take a deep breath and close my eyes as I feel the liquid finally reaching my veins, entering my blood circle with a burning sensation. Settling my gaze on Kai, I concentrate on his gorgeous face,
Emma I wake up with my heart bouncing in my chest. But that’s not the first thing I notice as the room is filled with his mouth-watering scent. Sitting up, my eyes don’t need long to adjust to the darkness. Ace is standing leaning against the wall, his arms crossed over his broad chest. “Wow,”
Emma“You can’t get out of bed yet,” Kai says worriedly as he tries to keep me from getting up. I shake my head, looking at him pleadingly. “They assess Serena today, or not?”“Maybe,” he grimaces, making me tilt my head. “Kai, please,” I beg him, making him sigh. “I need to be there. We can’t los
“Yes,” the judge replies happily. “And what a coincidence, right? Your beloved sister will surely feel more at ease with her brother during the testing.” ‘The brother she hasn’t seen nor heard of for five years,’ my wolf snarls before retreating into the back of my mind.Kai steps forward, holding
Emma “No! Stop!” I scream, panic expanding in my chest. Kai reacts too slowly, and even if he would be fast enough… There is no way to stop Ace. I watch the scene playing in front of my eyes in slow motion, my heart twisting as I see Ace attacking his sister. Serena rips her eyes open before sh
Hugging myself, I wait for him to say the last dreaded words while my stomach turns. “I have to insist on keeping her here for better training.” “I can’t leave her here,” Kai says, his desperation practically rolling off him. “I promised my mother that I would bring her back home.” The Judge flas
Emma“Please stop fighting,” Serena sobs as she is still standing between us. I grimace while my heart drums louder against my rib cage, but I hold my head high, not wanting to submit to his insane brainwashed state. “This is bullshit and you know that. You didn’t sewer the bond because you know de
Emma “Ugh! I can’t do this anymore!” Serena whines while Ace towers over her with his arms crossed. “You are making it more difficult than it is, Sese. Stop acting up.” Serena lets her arms slump, groaning. “We have been training for hours. I feel like pudding and Emma just got out of the hospita
Kai“You really don’t need to carry me,” Emma giggles as she snuggles into my arms when I pick her up as soon as we get out of the car. I grin as I walk up the stairs and thank the Omega who comes to open the front door for us. “Why? Are you already tired of your princess treatment?” “Never,” she
Emma “No worries,” Doctor Davies laughs as he enters the room. “I know how mates are. There is nothing that could surprise me anymore.” He turns around, looking at me, and he flashes me a big smile. As if he didn’t just treat my severe burns because of my mate’s touch. The best thing about Docto
“How bad is it?” I ask lowly, and he tilts his head, caressing my head as he flashes me an encouraging smile. “It’s all good. You got burned pretty badly, but it will soon be better. Your wolf is doing a great job.” I sigh, closing my eyes as I feel tired. “I feel a lot better already.” “That’s g
Emma My body floats in the jelly-like water again, and I fill my lungs with a deep breath before I open my eyes again to focus them on the dark ceiling. Like the last time, the flickering lights aren’t enough to enlighten the room, and I sigh exhausted as I feel my wounds close with a sizzling se
Ace - Five Years Ago “We have to stop,” Emma whispers as soon as I break the kiss, only to claim her lips again. “We will get caught.” I chuckle, biting into her lip, making her mewl lowly. “Only if you keep talking.” “I’m serious, Ace. If they find us here we will hear it until the end of our da
Emma My heart pounds against my rib cage as I try to keep my breathing steady. I’m frozen to my spot as I stare up at him. “Mate.” Jax’s rough voice vibrates through me, making goosebumps rise on my skin. “You called for me?” I’m only able to shake my head slightly, my body shivering as if I had
“Sorry, I had to mix a new ointment as the one I had prepared was gone.” I try to sit up slowly as she halts in her tracks, sniffing the air, and closes the door behind her. “Don’t let them sneak into your room without taking responsibility for wanting to be with you. They got that from their fath
