Over the next few days, Emma got a constant visits from Carrington and Emily. She was properly fed, even though she rejected most of the meals. Morris didn't go to see her, and it was for the best because Emma was so engrossed with anger that he would have ended up with a broken nose.The faithful night came and Emma was forced to dress in a white dress with a garland on her hair. Emily looked luscious herself as she swayed her hips into the room. “Finally, Morris is going to fuck you. Can't wait to hear the screams,” she announced.Emma, who was staring out the window, which, has become her new favorite place to be, turned to face her. “And, why do you think I'll allow that to happen?”“Well, you don't have a choice. Don't play innocent. You have had Clyde buried deep inside you before. This is no different.”Emma remained silent, not in the mood to exchange words with Emily. Somehow, his mind couldn't picture or tolerate another man touching her except Clyde. It was like the mere t
“Because I love you. If I don't, Maverick will, and he's going to hurt you,” Morris replied, his tone bitter. “I convinced my father to let me have you after this. If not, he could easily dispose of you because you're worthless once I have drawn your blood.Emma looked at Morris with anger and disbelief. “How could you do this? How could you come unto my world only to wreck it? What did I do to deserve this? Is this me paying for my parent's sin, which I have no clue what it is?”Morris looked at her with cold, calculating eyes, masking his emotions. “You should be honored that I have chosen you to be my mate. I could easily have had you killed afterward. Do you think anyone cares what would happen to you? No. I'm your best option,” he said, his voice dripping with arrogance.Emma shook her head in disbelief. “I won't let you do this to me. I won't let you take away my freedom,” she said, her voice trembling.Morris looked at her with a pained expression. “Emma, please. I don't want t
Days upon days passed, with Clyde burying the dead and rebuilding the damaged parts of his pack. He went as far as tightening the security of the pack, allocating more wolves under Liam's command to take care of security. During this time, Clyde was a burning flame, thin with patience, ferocious with action, and unapologetic about punishing disobeyers. He neither gave room for compromise nor allowed the thought of Emily's betrayal to guide him.Clyde sat in his dimly lit office, his mind consumed by thoughts of revenge against Carrington. He had meticulously planned every detail, envisioning the moment when he would make Carrington pay for all the pain he had caused. The satisfaction of his revenge had become an obsession, blinding him to everything else around him.Suddenly, a jolt of pain shot through Clyde's body, causing him to gasp and clutch his chest. He felt Emma's anguish, her suffering piercing through the bond they shared. His eyes narrowed in frustration, resenting the in
The air was heavy with a mixture of fear and desperation as Emma fought for her life. Morris, a beast of a man driven by primal desires, had cornered her in the dimly lit room. She could feel the warm trickle of blood flowing from her neck where his sharp teeth had sunk in, marking her as his prey.Emma's mind raced as she struggled against Morris's overpowering strength. With each passing moment, her resolve intensified, fueled by a desperate will to survive. She clasped her bleeding neck, her fingertips stained crimson, and her eyes filled with determination. Morris's eyes gleamed with a predatory hunger, his face contorted into a cruel smile that sent shivers down Emma's spine.“Please, Morris!” she pleaded, her voice trembling with a mixture of pain and fear. “You don't have to do this! We can find another way!”Morris's laughter reverberated through the room, cold and devoid of any empathy. “Another way? There is no other way, my dear. You were meant for me, and I will claim you
Emma's world spun out of control as the weight of Carrington's accusation bore down upon her. She desperately clung to the sliver of hope that Clyde, could not possibly be the one responsible for the heinous crime that had shattered her life.“You're lying!” she cried out, her voice quivering with a mixture of fear and disbelief. “Clyde couldn't have killed my parents. He wouldn't…”But before Emma could finish her sentence, Clyde's sinister smirk widened, confirming the devastating truth she had refused to acknowledge. His eyes gleamed with a twisted satisfaction as if reveling in the pain he was about to inflict upon her.“Oh, but I did, Emma,” Clyde admitted, his voice laced with chilling nonchalance. “I hunted them down that fateful night. I took pleasure in watching the light fade from their eyes, knowing that it was all for you.”Emma recoiled as if struck by an invisible force. Her heart shattered into a million pieces, and tears streamed down her face, mingling with the blood
Emma's heart pounded in her chest, the anguish, and betrayal fueling a wellspring of untapped strength within her. As memories flooded her mind, piece by painful piece, the weight of her past came crashing down upon her.She remembered the night of her parents' murder—the chilling darkness that enveloped her, the deafening echoes of their pleas for mercy, and the searing pain of loss that had haunted her for so long. The very people she had sought solace in had been the architects of her anguish.A surge of fury coursed through her veins, awakening a power she had long forgotten. It bubbled beneath her skin, a bolt of energy waiting to be unleashed. With every step she took, the shackles of her perceived weakness shattered, replaced by a newfound determination to fight back.“You thought you could control me, manipulate me, but you were mistaken,” Emma declared, her voice resonating with a blend of determination and righteous anger. “I may not remember everything, but I remember enoug

Clyde was clutching where the blade of the sword burrowed into him while losing blood. His eyes also landed on Emma's neck, seeing the but marks. “Are you okay?” he croaked despite his pain. He wasn't worried about himself, as he knew it was going to start healing the moment he pulled the sword out of his chest. But, that would be much work, as he needed to break off the tail and pull from the hilt. That was no time for that.Emma hissed and stepped back when he wanted to reach out to her. “Don't,” she warned.Clyde swallowed hard. “The night your parents were murdered, I was the barrier between you and Clive killing you. I hauled you over my shoulders and took to flight when he came after you after killing your parents. I'm not sure you remember. But, there were the two of us that night, with me fighting Clive.”“You're lying, Clyde. All you've done has been nothing but lie and cheat. I rather believe Carrington than you. That way, I know that Carrington wants me for something. But,
