Luca,My discussion with Emma was helpful. It was necessary to get my father away from Karolyn. It did not mean I would have to forgive him for what he did, but it would save many lives. The longer he was with her, the more dangerous the cult would be to us. I decided to discuss the matter with everyone, this time, including my wife and mother in the discussion. My uncle might not have meant any harm by his behaviour. Still, he was stylishly disrespectful, and I needed to correct that.I was eager to have breakfast with everyone in the morning and announce my decision. So I linked my guests, mother and Catalina, to inform them we would be eating together. Then I gently woke Emma up. I hated to be the one to disrupt her sleep because she looked peaceful and beautiful in bed, but I needed to act quickly. As things were, every second mattered, and I did not want the issue to be more complex than it already was. I kissed her gently, and she woke up a bit confused. She blinked a couple of

Luca, Marcelo left my office a scared and broken man. I never expected Tomas to be this efficient, but the fire of dangerous ambition had always burned brightly in his eyes for those who cared to see. I turned to my darling wife the moment Marcelo left, and the look on her face showed she knew what she had done. I went to lock the door to my office and sat on the couch. Rolling up my sleeves and unbuttoning the first few buttons of my shirt, I motioned her to join me on the couch. She looked nervous, indicating she knew what was about to happen. "Stand before me, Emma," I said, and she stood expectant. I eyed her body and unbuckled her jeans. I rolled it down, and she stepped out of it. She had only her tight t-shirt and red thong panties on. "Emma," I growled, and she looked away. I pulled her close and rolled down her panties. She was soaking wet from anticipation, and I chuckled. "You have been a naughty girl, Emma. I warned you not to keep things from me, but you did anyway.

Emma, I walked back to the restaurant and saw Tomas sitting; true to his words, he brought flowers. I saw him in a different light now. Whereas I never took him seriously before, I was a bit afraid now. I was fearful of what he was planning. He had proven to be a ruthless man with no heart. He was sly and a master planner. Gibson stood no chance with him, and here we were, playing hide and seek with him. Maybe he knew I knew, or maybe not, but the thought of it all made me afraid of him. He turned towards me and smiled. I knew he could smell me, so I wasn't surprised. I did not smile at him because, under normal circumstances, I wouldn't. I went to sit at the table, and he handed me the bouquet of flowers. I took them from him politely and thanked him. "How have you been, Emma?" He asked, and I sighed. "Great, actually," I said, and he nodded. "I think it was a bit disrespectful for Luca to do that to you in the club that day," he said, sticking his nose in my business. "Why did

Luca. While we moved, we were given rubbing alcohol to rub on our skin. It would confuse our scent but not hide it completely. I was grateful for the help I was getting. As powerful as I was, these omegas had saved my life. I owed everything I would do henceforth to them. I watched my wife hide her fear completely, giving me the strength I needed to push on. I was grateful for her. As we moved, I was glad I did not disclose the hideout to any of my guards. There was no way those people would kill them. They were bound to torture them to get some information out of them. Thinking about the precarious situation they were in broke my heart. Soon the attackers would know that they had nothing to offer and would either initiate them if they felt they were worthy or kill them. Knowing my men, I knew they would choose death first. We entered a storage closet with a wall that looked like a hardboard. To my surprise, the doctor slid the thick board to the side, opening the way to a tunnel. I

Emma, Luca and I walked to where Katya was with both her grandparents. Theo was in tears. He did not know he had a granddaughter, which was for the best. If not, Luca's brothers would have taken her and escaping with her would have been difficult. "She is beautiful," Theo said, holding her. Lacy was still mad at him, and they stood apart. I had never seen them stand apart before, but he deserved it. I doubt she would forgive him. She had mourned, and she was over it. "Emma," Tevin said, and I looked up. I knew it was time to discuss our plan, so I thought of an excuse to give Luca. "Luca, we want to check something in the forest, hope you do not mind?" I told my husband, and he frowned at me. "Shouldn't the guards be doing it?" He asked, and I smiled. "But I want to; please don't stop me," I pleaded, and he looked at me critically. I could see he knew I was up to something. He gave up and sighed. "Okay. I need to sleep anyway. Do not take too long," He said with so much trust, a
