CHAPTER 11
Gabe's POV I knocked softly on Emma's door, and she opened it with a bright smile. "Hey, Gabe!"Her eyes sparkled, but I could see a hint of sadness lingering behind them. She looked a little down, and I knew exactly why."Hey, beautiful," I said, stepping inside her room. "How are you doing today?"Emma shrugged, her smile faltering for a moment. "I'm okay, I guess. Just feeling a little...lost." she said I knew she was thinking about our triplets. We had been searching for them for what felt like an eternity, and so far, every lead had turned up empty.I wrapped my arms around her, pulling her close. "We'll find them, Em," I whispered. "I promise. We won't give up until we do." I assured her. Emma nodded, her eyes welling up with tears. "I know. I just feel so helpless sometimes. Like we're never going to find them." Emma said her eyes showing her deepest emotions. I held her tighter, trying to reassure her. "We will, Em. We will. And until then, we have each other." I said. As

Emma's POV I walked through the forest, my senses on high alert. I had been searching for my triplets for what felt like an eternity, and I was starting to lose hope. But I couldn't give up. I had to keep trying.As I walked, I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. I focused on my sense of smell, trying to filter out the distractions of the forest. I had to find them. I had to know they were safe.At first, there was nothing. Just the usual scents of trees and wildlife. But then, I caught a whiff of something familiar. My heart skipped a beat as I recognized the scent. It was him. It wasn't my precious babies.I opened my eyes and followed the scent, my heart racing with excitement. I walked faster, my senses on high alert. I couldn't lose the scent now. I had to find them.As I rounded a bend in the path, I saw something that made my heart leap. A small piece of fabric, caught in a bush. I recognized the material instantly. It was from one of their clothes. But it wasn't their scen

Emma's POVI sat in the parlor with Gabe, my mind racing with thoughts of my missing children. Angelo's promise to help me find them had given me a glimmer of hope, but I knew we had to act fast with or without his help. "We need to come up with a plan," I said to Gabe, my voice firm with determination. "We can't just sit around and wait for something to happen." I said not wanting to depend too much on other people's help. Gabe nodded in agreement, his eyes scanning the room as if searching for inspiration. "We've already alerted the pack," he said. "But we need to think outside the box. Whoever took the kids is likely to be hiding them somewhere we wouldn't think to look." Gabe said. I nodded, my mind racing with possibilities. "We need to think like they do," I said. "What would we do if we were hiding children?" I asked. Gabe's eyes locked onto mine, a spark of understanding between us. "We'd want to keep them close, but hidden," he said. "Somewhere we could easily access them

Gabe's POVI stormed out of the parlor, my anger and frustration boiling over. Seeing Emma again, being near her, it was like no time had passed at all. My feelings for her were still there, simmering just below the surface.But then she had to go and mention him. Angelo. My rival, my enemy, the one person who could push my buttons like no other.I couldn't believe he was back, and that he was trying to help Emma find her kids. I didn't trust him, not one bit. He had an ulterior motive, I was sure of it.I walked out into the cool evening air, trying to clear my head. I needed to focus on finding the kids, not on my feelings for Emma or my hatred for Angelo.But it was hard. Emma was still the one person who could get under my skin, who could make me feel alive. And Angelo... he was the one person who could push me to my limits.I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down. I needed to be rational, to think clearly. But it was hard when all I wanted to do was go back inside and cl

Emma's POV I stood in the room, surrounded by Gabe, Augustine, and the rest of the team, all of us scanning the cameras and monitors for any sign of the kids. The tension was palpable, and I could feel Gabe's eyes on me, watching me closely.Gabe’s eyes were swollen. He had not slept well since I arrived at Chicago. He had been busy sourcing for different ways to find the children. I miss my past life. I miss Gabe. I miss us. Aside the abortion part, Gabe had treated me so well. His family had taken me as a part of them.Outside, a team of searchers was combing the forest, sniffing out any trail that might lead us to the kids. I could see them on the screens, their flashlights bobbing up and down as they moved through the darkness.Gabe stood close to me, his arm brushing against mine. I knew he was trying to comfort me, but I could sense his unease. He was trying to be strong for me. I know. But his emotions were betraying him.He was waiting for Angelo to show up, his eyes scannin

Gabe's POVI couldn't believe what I was hearing. I had been standing just out of sight, watching Emma and Angelo talk, and now my blood was boiling."If you accept to be my mate," Angelo had said, his voice dripping with smugness.Moreover this wasn't the time for all of that. We needed to be engrossed with finding the children.I felt a wave of fury wash over me. How dare he? How dare he try to blackmail Emma into being with him?I didn't want to hear her response. I didn't want to know if she would agree to his twisted proposal. I turned and walked away, my fists clenched at my sides, my eyes red with fury.I couldn't bear the thought of Emma with him. I couldn't bear the thought of her being trapped in a mate bond with that manipulative, power-hungry...I pushed the thoughts aside, focusing on my breathing. I needed to calm down, to think clearly. But my mind was a jumble of anger and fear.I walked faster, putting distance between myself and the scene behind me. I didn't know wha

Emma's POV I pounded the earth, my feet carrying me away from the scene. Away from Angelo's expectant gaze. Away from the question that had left me breathless.Be my mate.I couldn't answer him. I couldn't say yes, not when my heart belonged to someone else. But I couldn't say no, not when the fate of my children hung in the balance.I was stuck in a dilemma, torn between my love for Gabe and my desire to protect my kids. I knew Gabe would be heartbroken if I chose Angelo, and the thought alone was enough to bring tears to my eyes.But what choice did I have? Angelo held all the cards, and I was just a pawn in his game.I ran faster, my sweat-drenched hair plastered to my face. I didn't know where I was going, I just knew I had to get away.Away from Angelo's demands.Away from my own doubts.Away from the fear that I would lose everything I held dear.I ran until my lungs burned, until my legs ached. But still, I couldn't escape the truth.I was trapped, caught between two loves, tw

Esmeralda's POVUrghhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!! I watched Emma and Gabe's interactions with growing unease. It was clear that Emma had feelings for him, and Gabe seemed to return them.But Gabe was mine. He was my mate, my partner, my everything.I had been patient, waiting for him to come around, to realize that I was the one meant for him. But now, I saw that Emma was taking him away from me.That outfit she wore, the one that made her look like a perfect mate, it was all a ruse. She was trying to steal him from me, to take what was rightfully mine.I had been quiet, observing, waiting for the right moment to strike. But now, I couldn't keep silent any longer.Emma thought she could just waltz in here and take everything from me? No, I wouldn't let that happen.I seethed with anger, my heart burning with resentment. How could Gabe be so blind? Couldn't he see that Emma was Useless ? Just because she had triplets for him.. And so? I knew I had to act, to make my move before it was too l

Emma's POV I couldn't shake off the feeling of unease that lingered inside me. Esmeralda's words kept echoing in my mind, "You're so perfect, Emma... But perfection is boring. And you're so... replaceable.” I remembered her threat when I mistakenly clashed with her in the Corridor. I knew I had to make a choice, but my heart was torn. I couldn't bear the thought of hurting Gabe, but I couldn't deny my feelings for Angelo either.As I lay in bed, I realized that I couldn't choose between them. I couldn't break anyone's heart, not now, not ever.So, I made up my mind. I would leave. I would leave this place, these people, and these complicated emotions behind.I would go to Chicago, to search for my children. I had to find them, had to know they were safe.And then, I remembered what my friend had told me about a mage, a powerful being who could help me locate my children.I had to try, had to visit the mage. It was my only hope, my only option.I packed my bags, my heart heavy with s

Gabe's POVI walked quietly beside Emma, leading her to her room. She was lost in thought, her mind consumed by the journey ahead. I couldn't blame her. I was nervous too.Once we reached her door, I turned to her and whispered, "Get some rest, Emma. We leave early tomorrow." I kissed her forehead lightly. She nodded, her eyes barely meeting mine. I could sense the tension between us, but I knew it wasn't the time to address it.I waited until she was inside her room before I made my way to Carly's room. My sister was sitting on her bed, reading a book."Hey, sis," I said, closing the door behind me.Carly looked up, a curious expression on her face. "What's up, Gabe?"I took a deep breath, knowing I had to be careful. "I'm leaving tomorrow, Carly. I'm going to Chicago very early."Carly's eyes widened in surprise. "What? Why?"I hesitated, unsure how much to reveal. "I'll tell you everything when I get back, I promise. But I need you to keep this a secret for now. I don't want Esmer
