Emily's POV.
Now here is the drill.
After what Tyler did to me, I couldn't let it slide. How could he throw my out. if not for the angel that came as a maid and showed me one of the guest rooms, I would have slept in the hallway. I wanted to teach him a lesson. He should learn how to treat a lady.
I thought all night but I couldn't come up with something. Maybe it is because I was tried and stress. So, I slept. I knew if I wake in the morning, I would come up with something nice.
I was still asleep when I heard someone knocking on my door. Told all the servants not to disturb me. I just wanted to sleep. Besides I am not a morning person. I thought I would just ignore the person and sooner or later he or she would stop but the person is so persistent.
"Go away!" I yelled and threw the thing closet to the door. It was like the person didn't hear me. Is it Tyler? I swear if it is him, I will crack his skull open. I stormed to the door, ready to unleash my anger on anyone that was present there.
"I said no one sho…" My mouth became shut immediately I opened the door and saw Tyler's mom's smiling face.
"Mrs. Bay I…"
"Mother." she corrected me. "And I am so glad you are okay. May I come in?" she said with a smile on her face.
"Of course, of course." I opened the door for her to get in. we both sat on the bed.
I have always like Mrs. Bay. She has always been warm and welcoming unlike her son. We both sat on the bed, awkwardly silent. I didn't know what I would tell her.
"I heard about yesterday." She finally said.
"Ahh." I gave her a little smile. I didn't want to involve her in this. This is between me and Tyler.
"I would like to apologize for the way my son treated you. It wasn't right"
"There is no need for that Mrs. Bay…"
"Mother." she corrected me again. She does love me. How my I supposed to get her to hate me when she already likes me when I haven't done anything.
Emily chuckled. "Mother, it was Tyler fault and you don't need to apologize for him. Parents are not meant to pay for the crime of their children." She doesn't need to apologize for Tyler. this was his doing and he will pay for it. I saw her smile and it felt nice. It felt like I had my mother with me.
"We have a Bay family tradition. The new daughter cooks for the family after the wedding. but you don't have to worry; we can do it tomorrow. Just rest today." Mother told me. I would have to cook?
First of all, I don't know how to cook. I have never been to the kitchen in my entire life. I know once or twice dad told me to learn but I ignored him. but on second thought, this could be just what I need. Like a bulb light, something sparked me and I got a plan.
"Okay mother. thank you." I agreed with a smile.
"You are welcome, dear." She smiled at me and felt the room for me to continue my sleep.
I woke around evening time and when to the kitchen. I saw a few maids in there cleaning up but one really stood out for me. it was the same maid that got me the room that night.
"Good evening, ma'am." They all bowed to me. Wow, red dawn really take respect seriously. At Crescent mansion, they don't really do things like this. I waited for must of the servants left. Thankfully, the moon goddess was on my side. That maid was the only one left.
"Hi." I said with a welcoming smile.
She looked around her. When she was sure she was the one I was talking to, she turned and bowed.
"No need for all the formalities. What is your name?"
"Maya ma'am."
"Maya, I am Emily. Nice to meet you." I said to her with a smile. She gave me a friendly smile and bowed. She didn't give up the formalities but at least she smiled.
"I will be cooking tomorrow." I informed her.
"Yes, my lady told us. We will assist you in any way we can."
"Thank you. I just want to know if there is anything I have to keep in my before I cook. I would like to buy the ingredients myself." I kept my smile up. I just hope she had something good.
She thought for a while. "The luna doesn't have any special conditions but she does choose what she can and cannot eat depending on the day." she smiled at me.
"What about the alpha?"
She looked at me strangely.
"My husband."
"Ah, he doesn't really eat here must of the time but I heard he is allergic to peaches."
"Peaches?"
She nodded.
"How allergic?"
"I know there was one time he got huge rashes and bumps because of it but the doctor came and everything was okay."
Wow, I have heard of wolfs having allergies but I have never seen it. Well, I can believe it. He is a mama's boy, of course he will have something like this.
"Thank you so much for your help, Maya. And can we keep this between us? I don't want Mother to get upset. She said I should leave everything for tomorrow."
"Of course, madam." She said with a smile and left.
Immediately, I got my plan into motion. I went upstairs and grabbed my card and car keys and went to the market. Beforehand, I browsed some recipes and got the ingredients. I also bought six bags of peaches. As they say go bigger go home.
I came back a stocked everything away but I had to be extra careful so I kept the peaches with me. tomorrow will be a good show.
Tyler's POVThanks to me throwing Emily out, I had I good night's sleep. My mom came the next day and wanted to yell my head off. I just stayed quiet. I didn't really want to argue. I just wanted to go back to sleep and thankfully she left and I did. I didn't come out the whole of the day. I just wanted to rest but also, I didn't want to see Emily. She always stresses me out.I thought about our wedding and honestly, I couldn't believe it. I am married. I know I assured Emily that we would get a divorce but right now, I don't know. It is so clear that my mom likes Emily and I mean like -like. She treats her like her own daughter. Why else would she scold me like that? But there was still hope. I know Emily will do something stupid. She always does. So, in a way, I am counting on her stupidity. The next day, I woke up early. I had a meeting with the elders and I had to be there. My mom canceled all my meetings for two weeks. She said it is my honeymoon and I am meant to be with my wif
Emily's POV"Girl, I can't believe you did that to him." Amelia couldn't just hold her laughter.After the prank I played on Tyler, Amelia called and she offered to take me out. I wasn't busy thanks to the honeymoon so I gladly agreed."But isn't it kind of irony? You are meant to be on your honeymoon and here you are chilling with me." there was a hit of sarcasm in her voice."Well, it is better than staying in that stuffy house with Tyler.""I thought you said you guys would divorce after a while," Amelia asked."Well, I don't think that is happening soon. His mom loves me to bits." I was so frustrated."Well, it is better than marrying Leo," Amelia said.Well, that's true. Marrying Leo would be the biggest nightmare of my life. "Well, let's forget about all that. Tonight, we are going to have fun." Amelia said and goggled down a shot of tequila. Amelia has always been the life of the party. Sometimes I even wonder how the both of us are friends. most of the time I am the one who
Emily's POVI can't believe how things went so badly in under an hour. Amelia and I were stuck in some jail cell with like 30 other people. Apparently, we can't get out unless we call someone if not, we will root in jail and I mean real jail time.I kept on trying to get the policeman to get me out but he didn't pay attention to me. the rest of the people were unbelievably calm including Amelia. Well, I don't really blame her. Amelia has served more jail time than I remember. She is always at the wrong place at the wrong time. "Emily, can you stop? They wouldn't let you out." Amelia said to me."Well, what else am I supposed to do? I yelled at her. She was the one that got me into this mess in the first place."Listen, Amelia, you better get up your ass and do something," I yelled at her. I have never been in a police station before not to talk of being in jail. I can't serve jail time. My skin is too fragile for jail time. The worst part of this is I can't hurt the police because th
Tyler's POVI couldn't help but stare at my father's picture and wonder where everything went wrong. Everything is moving so fast that I barely have time to breathe. I don't even know if I can handle it. But I have no choice. This was my fate even if I didn't want it, to lead, to protect and to guide.My father, the alpha just passed away and today is my coronation as the alpha red dawn pack. I didn't see the need for a coronation since obviously, this is my right by birth but this is tradition. Even in the modern age the wolves still follow their customs. sometimes, I just roll my eyes at them. I want to live up to my father's legacy. He was called "the strongest alpha of all time." He led with a lot of might and power. He handled the pack so well and was respected by all the packs in Australia. Even though strength isn't my thing, my father trained me well from a young age and I know and hope I can handle the pack as well as him. I heard a knock on the door and the d
Emily's POVFather was really angry at me at the moment and it is very understandable but this is not entirely my fault. "Emily, tell me this didn't just happen." He spoke. His voice shaking in anger.This is the first time I have seen my father this angry. He was shaking and his eyes were so dark with anger. I wanted to be afraid but I couldn't. I made a decision and I have to stand by it."Father…" I chair was thrown across the room shutting me up immediately.Father came in front of me; our nose almost touching and asked again, this time, slowly. "What just happened?"I wanted to explain everything to him but he was clearly very angry to understand anything. I looked at the chair he threw at me."Why was there another bride on the altar? Why did Leo marry another woman?" he asked yelling."Who helped you with this? Is it Amelia?" he asked. I shook my head in disapproval immediately. I can't get her in trouble. Never! "Do you know how hard it was to convince him about this marriag
Tyler's POV The coronation was over and I had a lot of work to do. There was a lot of paperwork to be done, unfinished business and so many foreign clients were called to either give their condolences or congratulate me on my coronation. In short, there was a lot of work to do and I am so stressed. My right hand, Oliver comes in and just the right time to add to my stress."Dude, is there still more work?" I asked frustrated.Oliver has been with me since when we were kids. We have been there for each other and he is the only person I trust with my life. When I asked him to be my right-hand man, I was so happy he agreed because I didn't know what would have happened if he didn't.He chuckled. "It is not work. The alpha of Crescent Pack is inviting you to their yearly party. It is kind of their tradition."What is this talk about party? Oliver knows quite well that I don't do parties. They are just so noisy and everyone wants to talk about relevant things all the time. I was about to
Emily's POV How does Father expect me to find a groom in one night? I thought he was mad and just said it out of anger till he came in the morning to remind me of our "deal". Is he crazy?I called Amelia and told her everything. Thanks to her, the plan went smoothly but this is the biggest problem of all only the moon goddess knows what he will do to me if I don't find a mate during the ball. Will he sell me? No, my father can never do that. I admit what I did was wrong but it was for his good. If only he knew what that son of a bitch planned to do to our pack.Amelia told me there was nothing to worry about, that we will surely find someone that will get my attention. Plus, she will be with me throughout the party. I didn't know she was right because almost all the men that were coming, I have had a day or two with them in the form of a blind date and they gave me the ick. The blind date was my father's wish, not mine.The theme for the party was gothic as usual; every werewolf part
Tyler's POVOliver knew I was having second thoughts about going to this party so he told Mother and of course, she made sure I went. According to her, it would be a great opportunity for me to find a bride which I wasn't interested in."Let this party end quickly." I groaned inside the car. I looked out the window throughout the journey. I wasn't really ready for all this. I knew immediately I got to that party, every alpha, luna, and their daughter would flock around me and I couldn't even lose my temper—I had to be nice. By the time I got there, the introduction was over. I felt kind of sad because I really wanted to see the alpha and his daughter before I introduced myself just to know what I was dealing with beforehand. I looked around and I could see all the ladies staring at me."Is it just me or all the ladies staring at me?" I asked Oliver who was behind me."Alpha of course they will stare. You are quite the catch this mating seasoning."Right, which mother would not want
