Parker Bennett. After spending the night in the cabin with Peter, we returned to the mansion. Maddie really wanted to come back with us, but our intuition told us it was better for her to stay there, accompanied by the guard and her grandparents. Well, our intuition was correct. Noah called a while ago and told us what had happened. On the one hand, I feel extremely happy that Emma could finally transform into Mia. But on the other hand, I feel disappointed that I didn’t get to witness it. I know that at some point I will meet her, but that does not take away the feeling of regret that I have, that I should have been with them. “It was William’s night, Parker. We had already had her, Peter had her too, and it was his turn. Also, let’s be honest. None of us would have reacted the way Emma and Mia needed. Feeling her suffering through the bond was truly heartbreaking torment, and we didn’t even see her.” “I know Fenrir. I was there. The guard had to chain us and lock us up so we woul
Emma Spencer.What the fuck is happening to us? Why do I feel so on edge with my emotions? I have always known how to manage them well. But now, I feel overwhelmed by everything. I feel filled with multiple thoughts that I can’t process. I sigh, thinking about that.“Dear, we’re here. Are you sure you want to enter? You can always stay in the car.”I frown as I say, “No, Peter. I am going with you.”I see how he sighs and, saying nothing else, gets out of the car. Parker opens the door for me and helps me out. He takes my hand, and we walk towards the entrance. A strange feeling of attraction washes over me. It is difficult to explain. I feel like something is pushing me in. It’s like something is calling me.I swallow hard at the lump that has formed in my throat and before we touch the door; it opens completely. A woman whose hair is white and long. It falls in cascades up to her waist. Her blue eyes shine and with a tender smile she tells me, “I’ve been waiting for this moment for
Emma Spencer.As soon as I saw Sheldon being taken away, I let out the breath that I had been holding. I put my hands on my mates’ chests, hoping to calm their wolves. I tell them over the mental link, “calm down, guys. We won’t get anywhere if you transform. I need to know more about the coven. Please!”“Doll, don’t wait for us to sit there watching you be in danger. That will never go to happen. Your well-being is our principal goal, Emma.”“William is right, babe. We will protect your life at any cost. Even if we must give ours for you.”“There is no need for me to add anything more to what is being said, sweetheart. The three of us are on the same page. This is non-negotiable and you know it perfectly well.”Looking at all of them and I can feel the tremendous love, concern and protection they want to give me. I sigh, and wanting to hold back the tears, I tell them, “Don’t even say it as a joke. I can’t live without you.” Then I take a few deep breaths, trying to calm my nerves, w
Emma Spencer.After what happened at Sheldon’s house, we returned to the mansion. Elizabeth and I agreed I would return tomorrow, since I must train my powers. They are manifesting themselves in a way that I did not expect at all, and if I think about it carefully, it scares me.I fear what could happen if I can’t control them. I think what scares me the most is hurting my family or not being able to defend them when the time is right. My people need a powerful leader and I know I am one. But I am also aware that I need help. I need to be taught and trained.Elizabeth made me promise, repeatedly, that I would not take off the blessed ring, not even to sleep. According to her, the ring matches the magic of its owner. This means that if its owner practices black magic, then dark things will happen. Actually, I have no desire to check whether or not what Elizabeth says is true, so I prefer to believe her.My mates agree with me. It’s better to avoid... I mean, just in case.“You’ve been
Emma Spencer.After James left, my family arrived at the mansion. None of the boys allowed me to get up, since my attitude has made them anxious. Surely Parker must have told them about what happened during the afternoon and also what I asked him to find out about James. I insist, there is something about him that doesn’t give me confidence.“I feel the same way, Emma. There is something in his eyes, as if he is hiding something.”“And his hands? Did you notice his hands?” I asked Mia.She seems to think for a few seconds, until she tells me, “They were cold.”“Exactly, Mia. Werewolves or Lycans never have chilly hands, because of their high body temperature. Doesn’t that seem strange to you?”She frowns and then says to me, “What creatures have cold hands? Because clearly that man is a supernatural being, but a wolf? Wolf, it is not.”After my conversation with Mia, where more doubts than certainties arose, I went to sleep. With each breath, I felt my questions drift further and furt
Emma Spencer. “And with that concludes my presentation on educational innovation. Thank you all very much for attending.” Patrick Sheldon, the dean of the university, says, “Ladies and gentlemen, this was the keynote presentation by Dr. Spencer, interim professor at Stanford's University.” I can see how the audience stands up, applauding me. Some shout, “Well done!” and I can’t help but smile. I step off the stage and come face to face with the university’s principal benefactor, Mr. Peter Bennett. He is the most coveted billionaire in the country. I look at the gigantic man standing in front of me. Extremely tall, a wall of pure muscle, brown hair a little longer on top than on the sides, almond-colored eyes, full lips, powerful jaw, and freshly trimmed beard. He wears a black suit, tailored. Attractive, manly, every woman’s dream, which makes your panties wet, just by looking at him. With a perfect smile drawn on his lips and his fixed eyes looking at me intensely, he tells me w
Emma Spencer.After witnessing that pathetic bastard who, unfortunately, is still my husband, fuck his secretary in my house, I got in the car and pressed the accelerator. I know I can’t go to my mother’s house. Not yet. I need to process everything I see.Maddie can’t see me like this. God heavens! Maddie. How will I justify her daddy is a bastard? What will I tell her when she asks me why don’t we go back home? She may only be five years old, and Albert may not be the best of parents, but she doesn’t miss a beat. Sometimes I feel like talking to her is like talking to an adult, in a small way.Fuck! I’m so shocked! And honestly, I’m too stubborn to cry.Fury flows through my veins like thick, burning lava. While I’m arguing with my inner self about which path to take, my cell phone pulls me out of my thoughts.I stop on the avenue and see who is calling, and it is none other than Albert-moron! I cut the call without wanting to listen to that insignificant worm and block his number.
Peter Bennett. Hearing her voice through the speakers caused me to freeze in my position, unable to move forward. My intention was never to attend the conference. Also, I had given up going, not because of the topic itself, but because my meeting with dean Smith was more relevant. Therefore, I had never expected to be in the auditorium. Apollo, my wolf, stirred inside my head, demanding to see her. He needed to know to whom belonged the melodious voice that spoke, whose speech was full of ingenious sentences and novel discoveries. I leave the dean talking alone and head on autopilot towards the auditorium. I stand at the door, watching the tiny figure behind the podium. My wolf jumps in my head, absolutely crazy screaming, “mate, mate, mate, mine, mine, mine!” giving me a big headache. I never got married, because I always believed that I would find the love of my life one day. I didn’t think that, at thirty-six years old, I would find her. Although it makes me wonder, why is sh
