Emi POV The first three days were the same, yoni and Jackson would come in tie me up, and began slicing into my skin below my breast running to my thighs while covering my face with a cloth and pouring water over me suffocating me. I struggled and cried out which fell on deaf ears because No one could help me, I was fighting on my own, and no matter how much the fellow capturers growled and screamed for them to stop.. it only made them prolong it. But today… today… wasn’t a usual day… they didn’t cut me… they didn’t tie me up they escorted me out of my cell and into a room, at first they sat gave me food, which I didn’t touch, I was really suspicious.. especially when they came a little too close for comfort. They went out of the room locking the door behind them and then almost instantly loud screaming incoherent music played from the speakers above me, next the TV that I thought was a wall started something horrid images of werewolves and vampires tearing into humans. I instantl
Emi pov. The torture was starting to get to me… I felt trapped and my skin began to crawl everytime one of the super natural beings stared at me. I knew they meant me no harm but those images and the music created a underlining paranoia I couldn’t get rid off as for My so called gifted senses is all but gone after I failed to smell anything other than my own blood Regarding Samuel began accepting my blood before the tortured started, he didn’t drink directly from me but from a small bowl like dish I had. I bleed sometimes from wounds sustained from beatings but he stopped drinking them, but now as I watched him slurp the blood from I couldn’t help and shiver of disgust but at the same time Samuel was the that brought me back made me laugh and held my hand after every beat while I cried… without him I wouldn’t be sane I would have gave in to the pain. “You need to fight Em…” Samuel whispers through the cell gates holding my hand delicately in his. “I did… but they still carved me.
The dungeon door flung open as the ruckus sound grew ungodly. The loud feral growls and the screaming and shouting had everyone standing up in excitement and fear. We rose when we heard hurrying footsteps hoping that it was our rescuers only to be greeted by the worse of the guards, Yoni and Jackson. A startled scream left My lips as my cell gate was flung open and all the guards barged in at once. “LEAVE HER ALONE!!!” Samuel screamed shaking the cell gate that separated us as my screams became louder as their rained blows after blow down on me. Blue-eyed voice boomed the next scream as they watched in horror Jackson dragged me out of the cell bloodied and bruised in the direction of the exit. “Please don’t… don’t put Me in there…” I begged seeing the door and room “Please Jackson!!! Please!!” I screamed as I was flung into the room landing hard on the tiled floor but this time Jackson didn’t leave nor did some of the guards or yoni when they closed the door behind them. The screa
6 years later… I know what you thinking … that’s so much of time!!!! But truly it wasn’t… Well not for me anyway… it took me 6 years to get over what happened down in the dungeons… 6 years for me to get put together enough so I could go back to school finish my honors and then masters while still holding down a lecturing job at the university and almost the same amount of time away from my family. … I no longer stayed with My pack… I was still a pack member, I still ran an underground operation taking down hunter packs or sometimes kept tabs on dangerous packs or covers that ran rampant and was disregarding certain laws.. but I no longer stayed with Ian or Thomas. Actually, I lived in a three bedroom apartment which I shared with Emanuel. We worked in the University together in Copenhagen, in one of the terrotries belonging to Ian and Thomas, while Ian and Thomas lived in Aars… and travelled to Edinburgh every two to three months because they established an additional territory the
“Let me get this straight… we have to go t,o Glasgow where Ian, Lzzy and the girls are in order to attend a meeting with your ex and his chosen because he is incompetent “ Emanuel starts I pause my packing thinking back to Noah's last words and then remembering him... I shake my head trying to forget those dark brown eyes that always haunted my dreams... but it wasn't in the nightmare sort of way, more of in a very inappropriate way... deliciously inappropriate. I clear my throat trying to will the last dream out of my mind focusing on the task at hand. "Noah isn’t my ex … or my ex-mate. We were never together....” I sayand going over to my drawer startPlease pack underwear. “please don’t tell me you still have feelings-“ Emanuel groans in disgust as I snap my head towards him “I feel nothing for him, … Now are you done packing?” I ask and he rolls his eyes “No. I have… clothes at my… coven… at the house in Glasgow, maybe if you stayed once a while you would know that…” He says
Ian and Lzzy pulled me into a hug after they got their spawn off me handing them into Emanuels awaiting arms. "Gosh, I missed you..." Lzzy says in a motherly tone that she used to use on me when we were teenagers. She was doing much better now, we did think that she was going to slip when we heard about Zander's and Ruby's and their daughter's death, but she went the opposite way. She became the mother she was meant to for Anna and Emma were... conceived a few months later and everything just settled from there. Though... The gaping hole that we felt from the doctor's death was evident, they became like family to us and their daughter, Zahrah, was Anna's best friend, we held out hope for years that Zara was alive and just missing but after years of searching, still no luck. I am brought back to the present as my brother hugs me tightly, "It's so good to see you Little moon..." He says pressing a kiss to my forehead making me scrunch my face at their over affection. "You not
“Alexander…” I say smiling walking down the steps over to him making him stand up straight with his smirk drop and being replaced with a neutral expression. “How are you?” I ask politely when I was in front of him, making Noah scoff, which I choose to ignore “I’m fine wailer… how are you?“ Alex says smirking down at me making me blush “I did not wail, and I'm well thank you. for asking” I say quietly in amusement remembering the circumstances of our meeting as we stare unblinkingly at each other as countless questions swirl in my mind. He was the Alpha of Hybrids, He Alpha of the Barbarian Pack, He was the Alpha that protected me and hid me within his pack when I went into hiding and he was the man that I couldn't forget that haunted every part of my dreams. I wasn't sure how long I was gawking at him but It must have been a while because I could smell Noah's jealousy and Alexander was no longer smirking down at me he had a small genuine smile while his eyes danced with a mixture of
The marathon was great Anna was cuddled next to me fast asleep on the floor along with Emma, and Emanuel was resting on the couch behind me and I was lost in thought while I rested my head on the couch. Some Animation about princesses played in the background as Lzzy and Ian walked into the lounge along joining me on the floor sitting on either side of me after picking up their kids and handing them to a now wide awake eager Emanuel, who readily accepted them and walked upstairs to tuck them in. I leaned into Ian's shoulder as he wrapped his arm around me affectionately “what’s wrong little moon…” he asks quietly while Lzzy ran her fingers through my hair. I wasn't sure what to say to them, speaking my thoughts out would make everything too real... and I wasn't sure if I was ready for real or heartbreak... I was much more comfortable in my fantasy world with Alexander where he did the most despicable and wanton things to me while shivered in delight, being mated to him opened the d
Alex pov I walk around the field with Ian both of us with blades in hand looking at the carnage that was left after the battle. We were quiet as we plunge of blades into the enemies that were too badly injured giving them a quicker death while we sent some to the infirmary on our land to get treated. I sighed softly looking around and seeing some of my men that carried the dead away while others worked with Beta female Amber to record our dead. The realm had lost no man, some were injured but not badly enough that required immediate attention. Amber declared that all dead were to receive a proper last rite, that all werewolves were to be burned as per tradition and that their wolves were to be sent back to the goddess. We didn't question the order when it came we knew that the Assyrian valued the wolf souls even if the human was evil. "So much destruction for revenge ...." Ian says as he kills another badly injured wolf."I guess you can see it as such but to them it was for a cau
Alex pov It's been three days since I last saw Isaac, three days since Greogry's execution, and three days since I sent the Herd into Hiding with Mark, Ivy, and Theo.We were all on edge waiting for news that didn't come, waiting for the impending war that sent most Earthlings pack on guard and sticking to their own. I did not hold a grudge against any of them, it was the right call considering this battle, if we lost, will eventually spread to their land which they needed to defend. I sighed watching my pack train in their center thinking about the next step when I heard the marching feet approach the door and the Assyrians to file in lining themselves against the wall as the royal army followed behind. There was mutual respect between the two but I could sense a competitiveness that tugged in the air around them. I tilted my head in interest as Isabella walked in with Amber close behind both with fresh splattered blood across their armor. I straightened my back sending a piercin
Issac povI yawn rolling my shoulders back leaning against the blood-splattered wall as the unconscious filth dangled from his restraints. He was soft for a wolf, both stubbornly pompous while simultaneously begging for mercy everytime I brought my fist to meet his skin. I was holding back on my punches and only using a quarter of my strength but it was enough to make him pass out. Honestly, is this what our earth kind as come to weakass wolves with no kind of loyal- "Issy! What you doing?" I hear Mia's voice float into my mind diverting from my rant to my Queens."Nothing much, torturing a prisoner for information, awaiting your beta's female presence, wishing I could break every pathetic wolf that assumed just because they are werewolves they hold power." I list. "The usual then?" She asks and I smirk nodding amused as I answer a "yes." making her chuckle before we both go silent for some time before she speaks again. "I know being close to Emi... hurts sometime... I am sorry I
Alex pov.My warriors climbed the trees pulling down vampire spies and rogued wolves who growled with their yellowing teeth. Emi was at the house as we cleaned up our lands and dragged the prisons to the dungeons when an unexpected or rather expected visitor arrived. I gapped at Isaac who was all grown and stood tall with a quarter of his pack warriors on Ian's front lawn. They all wore their Assriyan clocks in pride with their muscles protruding and glistening in the setting sun which took nothing away from the female warriors that stood just as steady next in formation."Pleasure to see you again, Alpha. It's been a while," Isaac says with a smirk and a small bow which I returned before my eyes swept the crowd trying to spot the silver-haired pixie which was never too far away. " She is still away." Is all Isaac says as my eyes snap back to him taking in the powerful auras radiating off the wolves but I could not sense his which meant he was hiding it.I swallow slowly as questions
Emi pov...Everything was calm and silent as we all ate our dinner that night nothing amiss, nothing threatening unless you count Noah's nasty stare. It didn't help that Alex was taking his gaze as a threat to us while I became oblivious to it. I was relatively calm and within me, my demon was settled. She was strong but quiet in the back of my mind and it sometimes felt overwhelming. Alex said that it was natural to feel like that but he said it was attributed to the tribrid venom and the fact he was an Alpha.We finished our meal but stayed at the dinner table talking amongst the clan when Noah excused himself, and walked to the kitchen before returning the most delicious chocolate cake known to man. "A congratulations..." He says to Alex as he lowered it in front of causing the whiff of chocolate to tickle my nose. My mouth watered as Alex grunted in thanks and asked him to serve it while he went back into conversation with Papa Ian. Noah cut a generous slice for each of us and
Gregory Pov... This was bullshit, absolute bullshit! I was a Lord, an Elite, in the Vampire world but Now I am shunned out of my own clan because that demonic filth comes as a close relationship with my Clan master that he can get away with murdering my brother and torturing Viven! Who gives Sergei, the clan master, my former clan master the right to dictate terms to me! To make me bleed over the Calishk stone! To make me prove my innocence! He is supposed to be protecting me under Vampire law! and what about the Vampire law!!! Does the law not suddenly apply to Emmanuel, that other filthy mudded blooded waste of air, but it applies to me?! How is that fair? My family line is dead because Of Alex and now I'm shunned from my clan, lost my power, everything because I dared to go after his pack and mate... Ok... I know where Sergei is coming from... He was a clan master and the werewolves warned him about coming near any of their pack. They even sent their stand-in warlord, Aplha
Emi povI couldn't have been happier carrying Alex's child... I always wanted to be a mother ever since I held Anna in my arms it just felt right but Now having one of my own with my soulmate meant so much more. I smiled during dinner with my family as Noah and Charlotte joined us out of duty not invitation. "I think its time we toast..." Papa Ian says standing up from his seat and rising his glass to Alex and I as a bright blush erupted on my face. "Congratulations on the new life that is growing within you... May they be as special and wonderful as your bond." Papa Ian says as the rest of the family and charlotte join in while Noah looks between us stormily. We ignored him moving on to the desert. I cuddled into Alex's side talking rapidly to Lzzy and Tavia about my upcoming bundle when Noah cleared his throat and stood offering his hand to Charlotte who did not accept it. That was odd I think to myself as she swatted his hand away and pushed her own chair back and stood a slig
Lzzy, Emmanuel and I stand in the bedroom looking down at the 5 different pregnancy test, all qith the same result, according to the fancy one I was 6 weeks pregnant…. 6 weeks.. I was so excited and anxious. Emmanuel stared wide eyed at it and started to pace while lzzy squealed next to me “you need to tell Alexander…” Emmanuel says and I nod, I immediately became anxious and knowing Alex he would have felt it and would call in 3, 2, 1, right on cue Emmanuel phones buzz to life, Emmanuel cleared his throat before answering “is she OK? What’s wrong? Did the doctor say something?” he asked worriedly and I groan taking the phone from a Emmanuel who looked like he was going to blurt out that I was expecting straight away . “Babe, I’m fine… I was watching a documentary, a horror movie actually with lzzy and my anxiety spiked. “ I say “why do I feel like you lying to me?” Alex asks suspiciously and I roll my eyes “Alex… aren’t you in a meeting?” I ask and he grunts out a yes “and don’t you
“I’m OK… I’m fine… and I’m not going anywhere.” I say between kisses and he groans nodding. I pull away biting my lower lip “I get that you nervous because I just came back Alex… I know you are anxious but you can’t guard me every minute of everyday. I love you… and I need you to be OK for me..” I say “I can’t loose you Emmi… I… can’t… I …” he with such truth that it made me ache “I’m right here… right here… always…” he nods shoving his face in my neck breathing in my scent deeply. We pull away sighing deeply. “I’ll be waiting for you in the shower…” I say and he nods.After using the loo, brushing my teeth, I get into the shower and stand under the comfortable stream, it wasn’t long before I heard the door opening and closing and felt Alex arms wrap around me he rubs his now clean shaven face against my shoulder and I sigh as strong electric pulses radiate across my tummy “do you want to wash your hair?” he asks and I nod “I brought your toiletries, from home.. and why are you lookin
