All Chapters of Emerald (Book #1 of the Jewel Series): Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Nalena I knew from the moment that we were shown Seraphina’s picture something was wrong. Something just kept digging into the back of my mind. There was something about her that seemed so familiar. I let it go for a few weeks, but something kept bringing me back to her picture. I went to visit my father's side of the family about three weeks ago. Dad was happy to see me. He had always hated most of my mom's side of the family, even before the whole Emerald thing. My dad’s father was a vampire, and his mother was a witch. He kept that secret from mom's side of the family because they were weird when it came to hybrids. I think if they had known his father was a vampire and from one of the oldest covens, they would have sucked up to him. Honestly, mom even disowned most of the family after all that shit with Emerald and her parents went down. I was still in very close contact with them. Dad had moved back with the coven after mom had died. “You know her don’t you?” Alpha

Ryder I was ecstatic when Seraphina’s mom told us that Emerald was pregnant. I was even more thrilled when she told us that she had triplets. I was a little disappointed when I found out that the babies wouldn’t be as powerful as their mothers. When Alaynia told us what Emerald truly was, I was amazed and shocked. I am positive that dad didn’t even know this. This made me even more determined to get her. I started trying to figure out how to get her and those kids, but then Seraphina’s mom brought up the fact that we only needed the little girl and her mother. “I took a walk around the border today. They have increased security.” Scott commented. “That is not surprising. They have the next alpha’s and a little princess to protect now.” I remark. “Ryan is back visiting as well. His mate Lyra is pregnant.” Scott adds. “That makes things more complicated,” I state. Scott tells me that he is going to talk to his friends within the pack and see if he can find out exactly wh

Xindi I hate being right, especially about this. I have only been here two days, and shit hit the fan late last night. At around ten last night Alpha Hendirx’s pack the Forest Moon pack was attacked by rogues. Sort of; they were actually some of Ryder’s guys. They somehow caught the pack off guard, and Alpha Hendrix was killed. His mate and their three kids and a large number of the pack crossed Jason’s border to find sanctuary. Of course, he took them with no questions asked. “Well, I guess they finally got the pack they wanted,” Jason growled. “This means they have a legitimate claim over the land now. They are way too close for comfort.” Draven states. “Actually this might work to our benefit. Before any of you say anything. I don’t mean the attack. This means we know where he is now. He is no longer in hiding.” I point out. “He has a strong point,” Helm says. “Plus in all the chaos last night I was able to capture a few of the rogues. I also captured Alaynia.”

Emerald It has been two months since Ryder took over the pack. I thought it was a smark of Jason and Jackson to make him sign that treaty. I could tell by the look on his face that he was pissed about it, but since it was the only way to get Alaynia back, he had signed it. Nalena and I had not talked to her while she was here. Honestly, I am not sure I could have controlled my temper if I had seen that bitch. I know Nalena would have beaten her ass. She and Nalena had never liked each other. “Are you ok kitten?” Devon asked. “Yeah, just a little sore, but it’s a good sore,” I told him. The three of us were lying naked in our beds. I had just been cleared by Dr Crighton to be able to be intimate with them again. Devon and Nate had taken full advantage of that. I think we only slept for like two hours last night. I am not complaining, but it had been five months since the last time, and I forgot how fucking huge they are. I smile thinking about last night. I made sure t

Scott It’s been a month since we signed that damn treaty. I know that Ryder hated that he had to do that, but I also know he wanted Alaynia back. That was the only way to get her back. I was glad that they didn’t hurt her. I didn’t think they would. She was too important. I was pissed when I found out that Seraphina tried to kidnap Emerald, but I had to control myself when I saw the wounds and bruises on Seraphina. I don’t think she knew that Emerald was as dangerous as she was. I do know that she was shocked when Emerald partially shifted in front of her. “I will be bringing a couple of people here tonight to discuss how we can acquire Emerald and her child,” Mylanrian says. “Ok, are these friends vampires?” I asked. “No, they are witches.” She answers. Ryder and I look at each other. That was not the answer we were expecting. I had no idea she knew any witches. Zavian never did show up, so we guessed that he found out that we knew that he was friends with Emerald.
