EMMA **Flashback Cont***I open it slowly and quietly, sticking my head out carefully and looking both ways down the hall before slipping from the room. I look one way and then the other before choosing to go to the left. I smile to myself as I find a winding staircase at the end of the hall. I start slowly and carefully down until I hear some voices coming up. I look around me and see a small alcove that has some curtains hanging in front of it.I move as quickly and quietly as I can into that alcove. I smile at the orange striped cat sitting on the ledge. I then place my hand over my mouth and practically hold my breath as two male guards walk past, chatting and laughing. Just as they pass, I step back a little further and hit my back on the extremely cold wall, the small sound that escapes from behind my hand makin

JEREMIAH "I'm sorry, Master."Those soft words out of her mouth just before she collapses in my arms bring me out of my anger. I retract my fangs and run my tongue over my bite. I hadn't planned on drinking from her but she has to be part witch or something and must have enchanted me somehow. It's the only explanation as to why my body would start to react to her when it hasn't before.I shake my head, as this doesn't seem right. She only has access to the books I give her. Unless she is a natural witch, then she wouldn’t need books to cast any type of spell. I think over what just happened and if she wasn't so scared of me, she could be loving and maybe even a little more...I pick her up and carry her up the small flight of steps and into my room. There is only one bed in this cabin, as it is my private getaway, so I lay her down on my silk sheets. As I move back, I remember why I wasn't going to feed from her and sigh. I took a

SAMUEL Once that is set, I move it next to the wall so that it can't be seen. I then pick up the other pair of silver cuffs, another long pronged U nail and the mallet. I walked over to the other side of the cave and attach the cuffs to the wall, just high enough that her feet only just touch the ground and she will be stretched out.I test the hold by hanging on it myself. When I don't fall on my arse, I smile and move over to the leather sheet once more. I pick up the other chain and the Bola I had thrown in at the last minute. Of course, like all the other things I have, it is made of silver. I am good and I know that I will be able to beat both of them, but the full moon is coming and I just know I am going to need to save some of my energy for what is to come.Once I double check the cuffs and then the chain, making sure they are secure, I then make my way to the entrance. I stay in the shadow and allow my hearing to expand, taking in all

JEREMIAHAs I enter my chambers, I find Ali still working. I smile as I walk further into the room,"Ali, I thought I told you to take a couple of days?"She jumps, turns and bows,"Sir, I wasn't expecting you...""I had to do some research and lost track of time.""Did you want me to turn down your bed?"I nod and then smile as she looks around me. I know she is looking for Emma, as they are good friends. I hook my hands behind my back and slowly follow her into my room as she heads to turn down my blankets. I step in front of her, so she bumps into me as she straightens to move away from the bed.I wrap my arms around her and turn her so that her back is now flush up against my chest. I want to test a theory. I whisper in her ear, using a little command,"Drink!"I hold up my wrist. She lifts her hands and gently holds my wrist as she then leans forward, gently sinks her fangs i

JEREMIAH The thought of someone else sinking their dirty fangs into Emma's pure skin makes me nearly lose control, making me want to claim her as mine so that no one would be able to touch her without me knowing about it. I carry her up to my room now that she has shifted. The effect she is having on me is even more intense, but now that I know why, I have relaxed. As she confirms that she would allow others to feed from her if that was what I wanted, I do lose the small amount of control I had and as I lay her on the bed; I kiss her hard and make it full of my dominance over her. I follow her down, moving her slightly so that I can lie on the bed next to but over her. I know her wolf will want me to make her my beloved as soon as possible, especially since she can't run, but Emma is not ready for that yet. I know that being her Master, I can take her body whenever I like, as is my right. However, I prepared her for everything but being with me intimately as she was too young. I did
