Aiden explained that his father had broken the lower part of his leg when they were living in the wild and he had set the bone wrong. Due to his fast healing, the bone healed improperly. I was disappointed by that. The only way it might be repaired is if it was broken and reset correctly. Zurac came down the stairs with damp hair and still limping. "Aiden, would you take Yutu with you? I want to see if your dad wants a bit of relief for his leg," I said to the young boy. He nodded his head and lifted Yutu. Nicole followed after the pair downstairs to the basement full of kids' toys. Zurac came into the living room and I patted the cushion next to me."Have a seat and pull up your pant leg. I want to examine your injured leg," I told him firmly. He huffed and did what I asked. I lifted the leg to my lap and could see the jagged scar."Why didn't your golden blood heal it correctly?" I asked curiously and he glanced at me with confusion."How did you know that I carry gold blood?" I la
"No, I'm not leaving with you, Tarkik. My life is here now," I growled bitterly and he laughed and told me fine but he was taking his son. I looked over at Zurac and pleaded with him for help. He looked pained and mouthed that he couldn't interfere with the boy's actual father. Tarkik dropped me to the ground and yanked Yutu, making him cry out in pain. The boy shifted, ripped his clothes, and started biting Tarkik. I jumped on his back and wrapped my arm around his neck telling him to let Yutu go. Tarkik tossed our child hard against the ground and all I saw was Zurac drawing back and punching Tarkik in the face."Don't you dare hurt that child or his mother," he growled menacingly and I dropped back as Tarkik fell unconscious onto the ground. Zurac lifted Yutu and hugged him to his chest asking if he was alright. I cried hearing him say, "I'm alright dad." Raina was wrapping Tarkik's wrists behind his back and propped him up against the slide. I went to my shitty ex-mate and patted
I was jerked awake and dragged off the plane with Zurac being led out by several hunters welding electric cattle prods. "Oh my, you're as beautiful as ever, Emma. Even bald you're stunning," Brian said to me. I shivered as his rough fingers trailed down my cheek. He neared my ear and told me he enjoyed rutting between my legs and licked my cheek. I gritted my teeth and heard Zurac growling threateningly. I was yanked forward as Brian made his way in front of Zurac. "Ah, a former hunter, how interesting. I'd back the fuck down pretty boy or I'll gut you right there. You see, my beast has been enhanced and enjoys killing very much," he spat. Zurac pulled on his chains and was prodded by two of the Hunters. I pleaded with my eyes for him to be obedient."Keep them together, Issac. I'd like to have him watch while I have my way with his bitch," he said sincerely and walked off like the cocky prick that he was. "I'm going to kill that fucker," Zurac grunted. I glanced up at him and saw f
Zurac kneeled down and held Tarkik up with his hand on his collar bone."Emma, don't touch the poor man's back, it's been burnt to the bone," he said firmly and I gasped softly and looked up into Tarkik's eyes."You saved me,'' I said and cupped his cheeks. He attempted to smile and groaned instead."Can your wolf heal you?" I asked frantically and he closed his eyes and shook his head. Aisha sighed and told me it appeared as if he no longer had his wolf or his Adlet, he was just an ordinary human. I ran my hand down his cheek and turned to Zurac."He can't heal, he no longer has any supernatural gifts," I told him and he exhaled deeply and told us to wait a moment. I watched him head towards the plane and yell out for the demon couple. I watched Grace heading toward us and furrowed my brow when she raised her hands and pressed them onto Tarkik's back. Tarkik gritted his teeth and passed out so Zurac helped him off of me. Zurac and Mortas carried the unconscious man to the plane and Gr
Zurac and I waited for Raina. Thankfully she'd been at the Dulce facility and would be here soon. A buzzing sound filled the air and Mortas pressed a button on an intercom on the wall.The bartender said there was a woman downstairs for her brother. "Send her up," he ordered and grinned at us. The door opened and Raina waltzed inside with her black hair falling loosely down her back. She looked lovely. Her green eyes raked the room and fell on Scotty. I watched as the Adlet jumped up and rushed to her. She fell back as he tackled her and started licking her face. I snickered as what Circe told me about Rain being associated with Scotty's mate made sense. Zurac grunted and was about to get up and I stopped him by pulling his arm."They're mates, leave them be," I said softly and he eyed me perplexed."So your baby daddy is going to be my sister's mate? Well shit, it could have been worse. He could have been yours and stole you from me," he said firmly and I chuckled softly that he had
The reality of my life was that it was surrounded by heartache and unfortunate death. I feared for Zurac since all my other mates had met untimely endings. Yutu loved the man like his own father and he and Aiden had grown extremely close. The pair would run off together, learning things from hunting to farming. Today they were going to learn about skinning and tanning hides. I held my protruding belly as I watched the plane landing on the runway. Raina and Eric were coming for a visit. I covered my laugh at seeing Raina's bigger belly and Eric dotting on her. It was obvious that he loved her and the moon goddess should allow them to be mates. They both had retired from the hunters and had taken half of the captives for their pack. Raina wobbled towards me and we attempted to awkwardly hug each other, but our baby bumps were in the way."Eric proposed and I said yes," she said excitedly and showed me her shiny rock."Abby's getting married after she has her baby and I have mine. We'll
"I'm Kenan Thorpe and my associate is Seth Jackson. Thank you for the brief meal and please don't run off. I would hate to terminate you doctor Rockford," the white-haired man said. I clenched my teeth and looked up at him and realized that his irises were very odd and goat-like. "You've heard of me?" I questioned him and he looked at me like I was daft."Of course doctor. You were one of our lesson studies and one of the highly wanted individuals by the world's military because your blood is very unique and could eliminate the entire project which ironically fell apart irregardless," he mumbled sourly. Seth ran his fingers through his thinning sable hair and surprised me by saying that Kenan was mixed with the DNA of some demon named Ezra. I snickered at that and he eyed me angrily. I cocked my brow and smiled."My mate carries a demon fire wolf and my best friend is marrying Ezra, I'm far from impressed and hardly terrified. Especially when my mate who is Alpha follows my scent and
Kenan shook his head at me."I'm human too and can see your resemblance to you when you had your wolf. Wolves go by scent and with your wolf gone you smell just like every other human in the world," he told me frankly and I scowled. My vision was so blurry I just wanted to cry. I gritted my teeth seeing through blurry vision the lovely woman I knew was Monica, nursing my child. I stomped my foot, having enough of this bullshit. "I demand an audience with the Alpha and you as well, Raina. I know your mate was Scotty the Adlet and I know I had golden blood that was unique and took gifts of those not naturally born. I'm Emma, the blind, fatter, dumpier human version but nonetheless still Emma Rockford. Ask me anything and I'll answer," I said firmly and Raina rolled her eyes and told us to get into the shed along with the rogue. We were shoved inside and I heard the door lock and cursed bitterly. Clasping my fists I started doing jumping jacks in place because of my insecurities."What
