EMILY'S POV
I smiled in my dream as I felt a sweet smell wafted through my nose and I wondered who was making those delicious pastries this early in the morning.I stretched lazily on the bed but my body ached badly as I did. I wondered why.My eyes opened gently, almost blinded by the brightness of the room. I closed them gently once more.I opened them again but a banging headache set in. I noticed the room I was in was not my room.I looked around the room and fear set in as I saw the bed I was in. A soft girly bed and I became worried."It can't possibly be what I am thinking, right? There is no way things like that happen?" I say with a hopeful voice as I raise the duvet and my eyes widen in shock seeing that I am naked."Ahh!" I yelled, not believing it. I was so frustrated wondering what happened to me.I tried to access my memories and I remember how the car I was in bashed the strange man's car, how I invited him on a date but my brain went fuzzy when I started drinking the wine…the wine was the problem." I bet it is just that I vomited on my clothes and they were changed only!" I am trying to be optimistic but the feeling between my legs is saying otherwise."Ahhh! I am doomed! Something is wrong with me?" I yelled, but I sensed something unusual within me and I grew awfully quiet.My wolf! I screamed in my head. I could not believe that I could feel it without changing first and that was supposed to be last night."Sheera! Is that you?" I asked because that was the name I decided to give my wolf and I heard her purring.'That is not the only thing that happened so take it easy.' Sheera purred and I wondered what she was saying.My wolf's first words to me were strange so I decided to ask a question."What? You think something more terrible could happen to me after sleeping with a stranger and losing…my chastity?" My eyes went to the stained duvet and I hissed in disgust.My eyes welled up in tears because I knew it was all because of my foolish acts of trying to get revenge on Ethan when I could have completely ignored him.'You are going to find out later.' She says.I tried to recollect my memories wondering what could be wrong and how I landed myself on the bed with a stranger but I found it hard as I felt a banging headache.I hissed in frustration knowing what might be the consequences of getting myself drunk the other night and I decided to get out of bed. I felt sore down there and I wondered how rough the man was with me.'Bastard!' I cursed but I felt something strange in my body. Sheera shut herself out after her words to me but I noticed she was making a slight movement trying to communicate with me but I was too occupied to care.I walked into the bathroom to clean up because I knew I had to go back to the pack house.My feet were all shaky as I walked towards the bathroom and I cursed at the handsome demon that made me this way and abandoned me but I knew it would have been more awkward to wake up next to him.I shrieked when the cold water hit my skin and I looked at my body that was full of love bites by the man and I hissed in disgust.I felt a stinging pain in my neck and I wondered what it was so I decided to check it out in the mirror to find that it was a mark…a mate mark!"What? What is this?" I yelled looking at the mark. I was beyond surprised to find it there.Moon goddess! What is this? Did I just get mated to a man while drunk?' I thought and I slumped on the floor not believing it and I wondered what other bad luck could befall me in just a day.I might be a misfortune."What am I going to do? How am I going to hide this?" My voice got shaky as tears streamed down my face because the emotions were so overwhelming.If I knew my silly plan to get back at Ethan with a stranger was going to get me into trouble, I would not have attempted it at all."Now, because of my stupidity I got mated to someone that I didn't even know his name," I screamed. I tried to not let my voice get loud so I wouldn't get the attention of anyone nearby.Good riddance! What am I going to do now?'He is our mate, Emily, we have to find him,' Sheera whispered and I scoffed at what she just said.How am I going to find someone I don't know anything about? How am I to find someone who abandoned me after placing his mark on me?My life is a mess!My tears mixed with the water as I walked into the room because at that time that was my safe space.I have disgraced myself and also humiliated my whole pack.I didn't get married to the person they betrothed me to. I went ahead to sleep with another man and also got marked by him."What? He is handsome? That demon ruined me!" I yelled, and after some time. I stood up from the ground with a resolution.'If I don't tell anyone, no one is going to know..it's going to be my little secret.’I dressed up and walked out of the guest room, shaky trying to bury my secrets in the room and I hoped the secrets were never going to come to light...Inside that room, I lost my chastity to a stranger…while drunk.I thought walking away from it was going to get me off it…only if I knew.EMILY'S POV They disengaged and then I led the way, we walked together into our room. Where Lucien lay.His eyes were half closed but he could recognize us all. He stretched out his hand to Liam. Liam took it.“What is happening? It's been a long time since the family was completely like this. It's been a while since I saw Liam.”He breathed. "We are going to try something. We hope and pray it works.”“What?” "Just watch and see. Be calm.”I stepped aside, Liam let go of his hand and we moved away from him. Lucas closed his eyes and held his father's hand.His essence began to glow in his heart and split in half. We watched with groped hearts and pensive spirits as Lucas shared his essence with Lucien. Immediately it was complete, Lucas slumped on the ground, his skin paled out a little, and his hair turned grey.I ran to him, touching him to see if he was still warm. He was and I breathed in great relief.Liam touched me.“Attend to father. I can handle him.” I nodded and stood u
EMILY'S POV There I'd nothing to say you need not disturb yourself self my Luna”He looked a little my way and then continued driving.“You saw me. At the trance you had in the cave, didn't you? And you didn't fail “ He looked at me and immediately our eyes crossed he couldn't lie anymore.“I didn't, I instantly knew it was not you. But I was carried away for a moment and I almost failed.”"Oh, I see. It's very understandable. He played with our minds to know the secrets we harbor that will lead us to evil if given the chance” “I thought so too. It was a very funny plan though and it works well if you do not know who you are with very well.” Dion Wright said."When we get back, you are granted a two-year leave. Go marry and have a what young man do. That will automatically fix this problem”" Thank you my Luna. I hope that I can find a woman like you” he said lightly.Our conversation ended we did not speak again even when he wheeled the car into the palace. I stepped out and looke
EMILY'S POV The old she-wolf looked back at me. She smiled as she saw the relief on my face. “You have come a long way."I nodded my head laughing.“Well, it all ends here. Remember this before you meet the creature you must not harbor any secret in your heart.”She looked at the bag of weapons Dion was carrying.“You should know that you are not supposed to take that in with you.”Dion smiled and spoke for the first time in hours.“We can't take chances. If there is no need to use it then we will not use it.”“If you say so. Be careful though. I will wait here.”I looked at her. “You are not coming in with us?”“Yes. I will hand you my staff so that it will serve as a symbol to the creature that I brought you but I cannot go in with you. You will have to answer for yourself by yourself.”I huffed ‘This is just great ‘“My Luna let's get going. The earlier the better.” Dion whispered into my ear“Of course” I took the staff from the lady and we began to make our way into the mounta
EMILY'S POVHeartbroken I pulled out of Dion's arm and yelled out into the forest.“How dare you ask me to come here without having the solution to my problem. I believed you existed like you have said and I followed the map. I came here. How can you tell me what isn't true? Does it amuse you to play with the heart of the wounded? Guess you deserve all that has happened to you and your people then ”My tears wet my clothes and My head ached because of anger. Amid my yelling, I heard a chuckle of an old voice.“So you came? I am impressed, Luna. I have never seen someone as desperate as you are. You must love this husband of yours so much."I looked toward the voice, and Dion looked too. An old Woman emerged from the burnt forest. “I am the One who sent you the letter. Honestly, I simply replicated the letter indeed to those I told that I had the cure to the problem. No one had ever honored my invite before and then the city was still in full bloom. I certainly did not expect that t
SOME MONTHS AFTER.EMILY'S POV I carried the baby down and Lucas took him from my hand. He cuddled the little pup and he giggled loudly.“At this rate, we will all be heard," someone spoke behind me, it was Liam, dressed in the robe of his father.Lucas stuck his tongue out at him, “Stop whining about your brother mini-Alpha Liam.”Liam glared at him. And Lucas laughed his ass off as usual." Asshole come along you know we have a patrol this evening and I cannot do it alone.” Liam beckoned on his brother. Lucas excused himself to keep the child inside.Liam looked at me. Who was silently watching them?“Are you going out again?" He asked his voice sober."Yes apparently... I have news that a man in one of the kingdoms in the east has some information that might help me.”He heaved. “Another assumption.”I gave him an accusing look."Mother please get me right, am trying to say I want my father to be healed too, it's just that… it's been roughly a year and a half since he got t
EMILY'S POV" Am what… " I let go of him. And pulled myself up On the bed.“Am with what( am pregnant? How?… I mean how come? I.. I didn't see any sign, there was no sign at all.” Shock is written all over me.Lucien kissed my cheek. “My warrior wife was too busy to notice."Seriously I could not comprehend how I was with child the whole time. And still did not know despite all the stress I went through. So many thoughts were going through my head at the same time. Lucien's came to my rescue.“Stop thinking. You just woke up, nothing is going to make sense for now but by tomorrow morning, you will be more fine. Okay? “I breathed, my nerves still not calm maybe it was because I was very confused or maybe it was because I was sitting in between Lucien's legs and he was staring at me with his cold ecstatic eyes filled with passion.“I missed you so much.” He muttered and my heart fluttered. He kissed me, going deeper. I missed him more and I got carried away, pressing him on the bed for
