Semua Bab Shattered Bonds: Bab 361 - Bab 370

Emerson’s my mate! I knew it! Well, I’d hoped that he was my mate. The man I’ve been in love with since I can remember is going to be mine for the rest of my life.I know I have a huge smile on my face as he escorts me to the stage for my acting Luna ceremony. All I can think about is finding a way to get under that tough exterior. I want to know the man underneath and I hope he’ll let me discover all his secrets.‘He won’t have a choice. He’s a mere man, we’re Guardians,’ Minka purrs.‘I take it you intend to find out what’s under Clovis tough exterior too?’ I ask her.‘I don’t think Clovis will give me as much trouble as Emerson will give you, but we’ll see. I love a challenge,’ she says and I nearly laugh out loud. But I restrain myself, as we step onto the stage.I look out over the pack, the pack that will officially be mine in a few months. I see my father smiling proudly at me, Riley, Clint, Uncle Eli and Aunt Grace with various degrees of pride and excitement on their faces, I

After breakfast, I realized just how alone I was going to be.First, I said goodbye to my father. He needed to head back since Rich was still in Canyon Ridge and Xander was needed at Holstin Enterprises.“You’re going to be great, sweetheart. But, if for any reason at all you’re not happy, you can always come home. You’re a Guardian. Rich will be thrilled to have you in the pack.”“Thanks, Dad. I’m sure it will be fine.”He had pulled me into a big, dad hug. “I have always wanted better than ‘fine’ for all of my children. I want you to have what your mother and I have, something spectacular, something incredible, something no words can describe. Anything less than that, isn’t good enough. Remember that, my daughter.”“Thanks, Dad.”After that, I’d said goodbye to Riley and Clint. I was truly worried about them. My family, more than any other, knows about the horrors of vampires. My mother’s skin was a constant reminder to us growing up. She’d been a vampire prince’s blood bag for seven

I have no idea what happened between our run and our shift that caused Emerson to become so…angry. It felt angry at least. He’s gritting his teeth and frowning at me. I mean, maybe he’s embarrassed that I’m seeing him aroused, but he’s not the first man that I’ve seen like that. When you live in a pack and half the time pack members are naked, you see a lot of erections.Add to that the number of times I’ve walked in on my parents or other wolves having sex in the packhouse or on the pack lands, and it’s not something new.‘But it is something quite large,’ Minka purrs.Yeah, there’s that. I mean, I know he’s an Alpha, and Alpha’s, at least the ones I know, are larger everywhere than other wolves. But Emerson’s erection was….I gulp thinking about that entering my body.‘Minka, how will it even fit?’‘Tightly. He’ll fill us so completely,’ she purrs, rolling over in my head and exposing her belly as if she’s ready to submit to Emerson right now.As concerned as I am about the dynamics o

I had hoped that getting Emerson to open up a little would help him to see that I’m ready to be his partner, not just when it comes to supporting him as an Alpha, not just as his Guardian, but also as his mate. Everything had been fine and then it hadn’t.I sigh. He said he was leaving so I could talk to Malin, but I already talked to Malin and I’m not going to interrupt her acting Luna ceremony with my problems. I wanted a challenge and I guess I’m getting one. It’s just…Cohen seems to want Malin, Rich always wanted Emlyn except when he was under a spell, my brother Xander always wanted Maeve, Clint seems to adore Riley.... so what’s wrong with me?‘Nothing’s wrong with you. You’re perfect,’ Minka says to me, but I can hear her sadness at Emerson’s hasty retreat tonight too.I get ready for bed, thinking about the conversation.‘Do you think he felt vulnerable after talking to us? I mean, we know it’s hard for Alpha males to feel vulnerable, even with their mates,’ I ask Minka.‘Dad i

My days and nights begin to develop a pattern. In the morning, I take Emerson’s warrior training. After breakfast, I run safe room drills with the omegas. That continues until just before four o’clock when I run warrior training. Emerson joins my warrior training in the afternoon and like me in the morning, he participates and spars with his pack members. Each day, we spar with someone new so that several pack members get to push themselves to get stronger. Uncle Eli and Aunt Grace also join both warrior sessions, so the pack warriors are getting stronger and faster.After my warrior training, Emerson and I run the borders, letting Minka and Clovis run and play together, but also checking to make sure that we don’t smell any unusual scents in the area. We always run the borders twice, and by the end, Clovis and Minka are playing more than monitoring the borders. Unlike Emerson, Clovis has no problem showing Minka affection, always rubbing himself against her, scenting her, and giving h
