She had no time for tears, or strength because her body was burning more and more and the pain she felt was unbearable, both physically and mentally. “Emma, wake up, you can’t give up,” a familiar voice that she hadn’t heard in a long time came into her head. “Stone...“, she barely said. “Yes, I am and I want you to listen to me, you have to endure, now is the time for the transformation, which we both waited for a long time.” “I promise you that this will be a lot of pain because the transformation will be faster than you would expect, but I also promise you that this is the first and last time, that it will be like that.” Stone said, sympathizing with her pain. Emma felt every bone in her body take on a new form, cracking and twisting as her body twisted strangely as cold sweat poured down it. Her screams were such that, if someone had been present, the blood would have frozen in his veins, but in half an hour she felt the pain subside, and her senses became extremely strong,
Shortly after leaving, a familiar voice was heard near the cabin, where they both went to get dressed, because as much as they wanted to, now was no time for tenderness, and Hope ran like the wind into both of their arms, leaving Derek and Anna behind her. Now Emma could see the wounds on Arden, which were already healing, but that didn’t make it any easier, finally hugging her little girl and the man she loved, she could be truly happy. She tried not to cry when she saw her friend alive and well, who couldn’t help but burst into tears when she hugged her, which saddened Derek even more, regardless of the circumstances, since her round belly was already showing. Emma saw that which made her even happier for everything, hoping that one day she too would get the same chance for happiness. The witches had already largely restored the state to its former condition, except that the dead could not return... This was something that they would have to deal with for the rest of their life
“Emma, if you can come earlier tonight so we could prepare all for our guest’s dinner tonight, I’ll help you with Hope, sweety”. “Yes, Luna”, I just need to bathe Hope, and we’re on our way there”. I put on my sneakers, black skinny jeans, and a shirt, my sandy-colored hair was in a messy bun, I took Hope with me and started walking to the pack-house. “Oh, thank God, I ’m so nervous because of Maison’s guest, he’s such a stiff person, I never know what he’s thinking”, Luna said, taking Hope, and going to the kitchen while I followed her. I thought he and Alpha Mason were high school friends?“, I asked her while I was preparing dinner. “Yes, they were, but back then Arden was already changed because of his parent's death." " He was only 15 when a pack of the rogues killed them, and he needed to take the Alpha role which I believe made him the strongest Alpha leader of a most powerful pack ever”, She said it was a bit sad though. “THE STONE HEART PACK”?!, I was asking in shock,
I woke up in the living room, hearing familiar voices and a discussion, which made my headache stronger. I immediately remembered what had happened before I lost the ground under my feet and I automatically got up because I was scared for Hope. ” Shhh, Hope is in Luna’s room and sleeping soundly”. Jane tried to calm me down. “I was waiting for you to wake up to tell you not to worry and now I’m going to her right away and you rest, everything will be fine.” Why did I have a stupid feeling that she was wrong, because of all that yelling from the kitchen I knew nothing good would come of it. “Damn it, Arden, how could you even think to say such a thing to her, to anyone, let alone your Mate”, I never heard Alpha Mason talk like that to anyone. "She’s not my Mate !“, Arden hissed. I saw Mason look at him with disbelief. “ Such pathetic thinking, Alpha Vulcan, especially when the Goddess gives us a unique chance to find our soulmate, and I don’t think you young people can judge Em
I broke, as I ran down the hall in a cold sweat until I heard voices from the kitchen. I stopped, not believing what I was hearing. My little Hope’s voice echoed from there, while another was unknown but it was a woman’s voice, trying to silence the loud laughter. I slowly crept close, trying not to be noticed, and was in disbelief after the sight I saw them. Arden and Hope were sitting and eating breakfast, while an older woman watched them from the corner of her eye, while she was working in the kitchen. “Mom didn’t tell me we were going to visit you, Uncle Arden,” Hope said calmly, looking at Arden he had a serious facial expression, but when he heard her, he almost choked with juice, not knowing what to say to my little girl. He wasn’t used to children, especially a direct one like my Hope, which put a smile on my face... Who would have thought... He coughed, with still serious facial expressions. “This week mom and I are supposed to go on a picnic by the river,” Hope said
“Emma, don’t look back and don’t stop, as long as you have the strength, run as far as you can,” her mother, holding her hands, said with her last strength. Emma cried looking at the young woman, whose once golden hair was red with blood, as was her body. She was disfigured and unrecognizable, and her father was dead, along with Alpha and the other members of the pack, if anyone survived, it wouldn’t be for long. She remembered when she arrived in the pack, together with Elena, who was an omega from her pack, who had taken care of her since birth, and masked Emma’s scent from Alpha into the omega protecting the little girl. She was the only child of her parents and they lived together with her grandfather, who was the former Alpha of the Moon Pack, because her father took over the leadership, of course, but when Emma was born, her existence shouldn’t be known because of the prophecy from a witch, who was killed by Emma’s grandfather had said on her deathbed. So Emma became an o
While he carried her in his strong arms, he could feel that she was shaking even in her sleep, which made his anxiety even worse, with the last knowledge he could extract from her, in only one way, he was not sorry to mark her, he already regretted the way he did it. He wanted it to be different. He knew that the first time he saw Emma, he was mean to her, thinking the worst. He’s insulted her, truth be told, The real reason was that he was captivated by her appearance at first glance, but also by a character that gave her the strength to fight, regardless of her past and fragile appearance. He put her down on the big bed in his room, ‘their room’, he thought, because he had already ordered that the smaller room next to it be transformed into a room for Hope, who was now enjoying her time with the nannies, and although he knew that Emma would need much time letting him into her heart. He prayed that it wouldn’t be like that, because he would be with her to change it, no matter ho
Luna Sara looked at her husband, Alpha Mason, with understanding. She was walking slowly away from the office, with the excuse that she would make them coffee, for which she knew she would wait a little longer, considering that she wanted to leave the two men to talk about everything in a more relaxed and private manner, at least as far as Alpha Arden was concerned. Although she would find out all the facts anyway, she wasn’t ready to immediately face the new facts that were related to Emma and Hope, knowing that all this would affect the lives of all of them. “Khan is 5 years older than me, but our parents always called us twins because of the similarity that couldn’t be explained.” “You know how Alpha can feel their Mate earlier, and that day, when the boundaries were attacked he was learning how to take over the title from our father, so he stayed longer in the office.” " When he heard what’s happened, he came, and on the spot, he found father, his beta, and dead rogues, among
