POWERS OF THE FORBIDDEN Chapter 40
EMILIA POV“Do not do something you’ll end up regretting, Seth. Let her go,” Lucas warned him, but I was pretty sure that killing one of the members of the Werewolf Council and holding another captive was enough for him to regret it later in his life and never think of doing it again.“You do know that you’re cornered, don’t you?” I reminded him, gesturing at all of the soldiers who were sworn to the Elders. “The moment they get you, it’s all over for you, Seth. Think about this and let her go before things get ugly for you.”Seth only laughed mockingly at us as he drew his knife closer to Penelope’s neck and looked around at the guards, who were stuck on the fence of defending Penelope and risking her life and letting Seth remain like that to keep her alive.“You really think I’m cornered?” he asked me, his eyes turning darker than they already were. “I will get them all killed in only a few seconds.”The minute he announced that, I could hear swords being drawn and swung as Seth’s s

EMILIA POV“Here we are,” Seth introduced as we stepped within the borders of Fangsbane, making a gesture of holding out both of his hands to showcase the pack that he claimed was his. “Welcome to Fangsbane Pack, where you’re supposed to belong, Emilia. Too bad that you went against me.”“When and where do you want me to address the people?” I asked, going straight to the point to show him how uninterested I was in his words and his antics.“Quite eager, aren’t we?” He chuckled before facing me fully with a frown. “How long will it take Lucas to gather his soldiers and come back to this pack for you? Don’t lie to me.”“He’s not going to,” I assured. “I told him to stay back.”Seth looked around at his men, who scoffed as if silently telling him that I was the last person for him to trust. Then, he grabbed me by the hair and swung me to the side so that I would bend in an uncomfortable position.“You’re hurting me,” I informed him as calmly as possible as I realized that a part of his

EMILIA POVThere was heavy silence in the room as I looked at the bodies laid on my feet in absolute panic. I was stuck between the thought of returning to call the attention of the assistants in the kitchen and going out to investigate on my own.“Daemon? Katarina?” I said lowly as I looked around, my forehead breaking into a sweat as I waited a sound to finally point me out to whatever was happening and what had happened to those soldiers.Taking the other route of having to go to the soldiers, I crouched beside the body of one of them as I attempted to figure out where the blood was coming from and if he had puncture marks close to that of a vampire’s fangs.I turned the warm body around and found a deep gash across the neck, which could only mean one thing – a silver blade.There was a dull thud which came from the living room, and I stood up immediately, making up my mind to see it through to the end.“Is there someone out there?” I called, taking slow and intentional steps towar

EMILIA POV“W-What?” I stuttered, unable to hear my own voice through the cries of outrage from the members of Fangsbane Pack, who were demanding for my head to be chopped off and served on a silver platter to the other animals of the forest.I had just made a fake confession to something untrue that Seth had blamed me for, only for him to turn around and point the accusing finger at me for something else entirely?“You are ridiculous!” I said loudly, and he used that as a play on the already heated emotions of the people as he still kept his index finger pointed at me.“Do you hear how she talks? Do you all know now just how vile and fowl she is?” As he asked his question, and with each word that he said, they all cheered him on and pulled me down even louder.“Can you all believe that while I was thinking about letting her go, even after she murdered Alpha James in cold blood, she was busy going on a killing spree until the kitchen assistants all held her down?!” The people foolishl

EMILIA POVWords could not express just how emotionally drained and tired I was from having everyone want something from me. I was not the last being on earth, but they all made me feel so in a sick and terrible manner.“What do you mean? It’s only a child that’s still growing in my stomach,” I reminded my uncle, who had just claimed the unborn child in my stomach as his ticket to becoming the Alpha of Fangsbane, just the way Daemon had laid claim earlier.At the reminder of Daemon and why he had chosen me in the first place, I narrowed my eyes suspiciously at Carlos. “Why this baby, in particular? Why do you want my child as your ticket? If you want to be the Alpha of Fangsbane, you can get it as easily as challenging Seth for title and winning in a one-on-one battle.”As if I had said the one most ridiculous thing his ears had ever born, Carlos scoffed at my words as he told me, “You’re just a silly girl who knows nothing. Did the vampire say anything about you and the child?”I cou

EMILIA POV“What in the world is going on in here?!” Carlos rushed into the bedroom, stopping at the door as he looked down at the floor, his eyes chasing the cracks to the walks and to the ceiling until he finally landed his attention on me, letting me know that the only place that had been affected was the room that I was in.“I have no idea what happened,” I admitted, getting out of the bed in panic and seeing that even the bed had been split in half, making me wonder how I had survived that.“This is insane, Emilia. I really don’t know whether to take it as good news of your progress or to see it as a potential threat to the lives of the people around you.” Carlos slowly walked into the room, grabbing me by the hand and taking me outside. “You need to learn to be in control of that thing before Seth gets a clue.”“I’m sure nobody is going to tell him. You’re not going to tell him, are you?” I asked.“That would just be utterly foolish of me to do. By the way, don’t you realize tha

EMILIA POVDaemon stood in front of me with a cruel smile, digging the spear straight into me.I heard screams fill the air as the pack members who had been hunting me down finally caught up to see what was going on.“Isn’t this what you all wanted?!” Daemon yelled at them through a maniacal laughter as my grip on the spear loosened when I fell to my knees in front of him, gasping shortly for air while tears blurred my vision.Everything that had happened, and I was just being made to know that it was all for nothing. Nobody cared. Everybody was so wrapped up in themselves and the people they owed loyalty to, to even notice my presence and all I had suffered for.“Why?” I choked out at Daemon. I hated the way he smiled at me. I hated the way he pushed the spear deeper into me as if taunting me and wanting me to feel even more pain than I already was, both in my heart and in my abdomen.“It’ll be over soon, Emilia. Just close your eyes and learn to remember it. Embrace it. Let the pain

EMILIA POV“Lucas is dead!” The words flew out of Katarina’s mouth faster than I could give her a thought, and I stood there like one of the other animals in the woods whenever they were experiencing the shock of seeing a wolf in the forests.“What do you mean by that?” I scoffed. “You wouldn’t be here if Lucas were dead. He was the one with the most control of the kingdom. How did all of the power slip out of his hands so much that even his Iife slipped faster than he could imagine?”“He was in the process of trying to prevent us from passing news like this,” Daemon added, his voice dark.I walked back and away from them in total denial until my back hit the wall behind me, making me realize more times than one that there was a lone pack out there that we would probably lose the ability to call home if we didn’t return.“They’re going to take over the throne, Katarina,” I raised. “You might think that they’re guarding the seat for you while you’re away, but slowly, they will start to
