Scott This is not how I pictured my day going. I watch from the small cave I found as two of the pack warriors run by. When I came back here to help Ryder, I knew he was not telling me everything, but I had no idea that he was keeping this shit from me. I found out recently that Uncle Connor died because he had challenged a neighbouring alpha for his pack and was injured. The wound caused his death, so the other alpha took over the pack and land—most of the pack left since they were rogues, to begin with. I didn’t know that Ryder had been moving locations within his land and was telling everyone that he was alpha. The two of us had it out after I found out. He had no choice but to admit everything to me. I am still loyal to him. If we can get Emerald, then we can take over this pack. “Where have you been?” Ryder asked. “Stuck in a tiny ass little cave while avoiding the pack warriors,” I answered. I explained that I was out running in my wolf, and the guards caught my
Helm It has been a quiet three months. I don’t like it. When it is quiet for this long, it means that something bad is going to happen. A smile spreads across my face when I see Emerald walk through the living room. Over the last month, she has gotten bigger. Yvonnya says this could mean that she is getting close to having the babies. I am pretty sure she would be happy about this. I think she is done being pregnant. At least the weather has cooled down. I know that Devon and Nate like the fact that she has gotten bigger. This means that she doesn’t really go anywhere. Usually, when she does, Raven, Raidon, Cal, or Malachi go with her. Our cousin Xindi is due to show up today. I look outside when a loud clap of thunder is heard. “What time is Xindi going to be here?” Emerald whines. “Sometime this afternoon,” I replied. Emerald came over and sat down in a chair by me. I know she is bored being stuck inside. A storm rolled in overnight, and it was a big one. We ne
Emerald These two need to be born now. I have actually loved being pregnant. Up till now, it has been fine. This last month has been hell, though. I am having a hard time sleeping, and these two never seem to calm the fuck down. I find it funny that Devon and Nate calmed down with their overprotectiveness, but their son always seems to be rolling around in there. I am so fucking uncomfortable. Yvonnya thinks that these two could come any day. Which is in the time frame that everyone thought I would have them. I am eight months along and huge. I swear, sometimes I feel like there are more than two babies in there, but Dr Crighton has done several ultrasounds, and there are just the two boys. “I want these two out now!” I tell Devon. “Kitten, they will be here any day now. I know you are uncomfortable.” Devon says to me. “It wouldn’t be so bad if they would calm the hell down,” I whine. Devon kisses the top of my head, and we join everyone in the main room. Renee ask
Devon Nate and I had literally been here for three or four hours when dad shouted over our link that Emerald was in the hospital. Of course, I first thought that something had attacked the pack or someone, and she protected them. -Emerald is in labour. You two need to get your asses back here now-Dad -We are on the way-Me -How is she doing?-Nate -They just gave her an epidural, so she is better, but you two need to be here-Dad “Sorry Uncle Jackson,” I say. “No worries. Now let’s get you two back so you can be there when those boys are born.” Uncle Jackson states. The door to Uncle Jackson’s office slams open, and there stands Aunt Penelope. She yells at us to get out of here now and return to Emerald. None of us argues with her. Aiden, Gavin, Greg, Nate, and I take off running. Literally, we all shift and run back to the pack hospital. We are just outside where dad and Lance meet us with clothes to put on. We all shift back and pull the clothes on. Dad says that E
Nate This was not how I was expecting this day to turn out when we left for Uncle Jackson’s. I could tell Emerald was not feeling well, but she was also eight months pregnant. We had only been there a few hours when dad yelled at us through our link about Emerald going into labour. That shut all of us real quick. None of us knew what to do until Aunt Penelope slammed open the door and basically threw us out. “Well this was definitely not expected,” Devon says. “No, it wasn’t,” I said. The two of us are looking at our two newborn boys, and surprise, they are hiding a sweet little secret behind them. Those two kept a very big secret from us. They were hiding a sweet little girl. So our twins turned into triplets. “I knew there was something strange about their auras; I just couldn’t figure out what it was,” Rich exclaims. He had been saying for the last four months that their auras were strange but that he couldn’t tell us why. He made sure to tell us that it was nothi
Alpha Jason For fuck sake, there is something wrong with that woman. We all look up when we hear a loud, high-pitched squeal. I look up, and Jackson and Penelope are standing in the doorway to my office. I have little Emyria in my arms, while Devon has Nicolas in his arms. Dustin is in Nilan’s arms. For some reason, he is fascinated with Nilan. My ears are ringing from her squealing. “Hey,” I state. “OH MY GOD THEY ARE SO FUCKING ADORABLE,” Penelope screams. Jackson has sat down beside Devon and is holding Nicolas. He is rolling his eyes at his wife and her ridiculousness. “I WANT ONE,” Penelope screams. I think Jackson almost dropped Nicolas when she said this. I am pretty sure his heart stopped. We all look at her, and I am pretty sure she has lost her fucking mind. Not that she couldn't have another child but still. “Mom, stop screaming; we are all in the same room,” Aiden tells her. Penelope has taken little Emyria from me and is snuggling her close. I see h
Nalena I knew from the moment that we were shown Seraphina’s picture something was wrong. Something just kept digging into the back of my mind. There was something about her that seemed so familiar. I let it go for a few weeks, but something kept bringing me back to her picture. I went to visit my father's side of the family about three weeks ago. Dad was happy to see me. He had always hated most of my mom's side of the family, even before the whole Emerald thing. My dad’s father was a vampire, and his mother was a witch. He kept that secret from mom's side of the family because they were weird when it came to hybrids. I think if they had known his father was a vampire and from one of the oldest covens, they would have sucked up to him. Honestly, mom even disowned most of the family after all that shit with Emerald and her parents went down. I was still in very close contact with them. Dad had moved back with the coven after mom had died. “You know her don’t you?” Alpha
Seraphina (Imani) I was very happy when Scott told me where we had moved to. I knew mom had a cabin in that area. She went to see a friend three or four years ago and returned with a young girl. This young girl turned out to be a fairly powerful witch that had been sold to my mother by her family. I thought that was absolutely horrible. Seriously I had no idea what type of family sold its members, but it was not my concern. I had told mom about what happened ten years ago. She was upset with me but also had a plan. I knew I needed to try and seduce the vampire king Vaccaro. It was really not that bad of a deal. He is drop-dead gorgeous. From the start of our relationship, he made it clear that we were just fuck buddies. I, however, made sure to run off any woman that showed interest in him. This issue arose when he showed interest in some human girl. I have to admit she is beautiful and I swear I have seen her before. “I still can’t believe we found our mates,” Alayni
