Ember's POVThe next few days began with me making sure that I was invested in pack affairs. Mainly because Elise was still around and I knew that she was going to run me mad. In the spirit of avoiding everyone that was destined to make me cranky, I went out everyday."Luna Ember, I didn't know that you visited this place." A woman said. She was at the spinning machine, weaving yarn while I watched her."Yes, I do." " Please come have a seat." She said while taking a glance at my now protruded stomach.I was interested in seeing how they wove materials, coming from where we bought most things. I loved the art that went in toward this. It made me feel happy that some people had this much love for art."Would you like some juice?" She offered but I wrinkled my nose. I wasn't really in the mood to drink anything because I feared that I might end up throwing up which wouldn't be too good considering the fact that the doctor told me to ease off any stress.She sighed and glanced at me surr

Ember’s POV“Let's talk through Facetime honey.” My father said and I nodded, before switching to it. My father stared at me for a moment, his eyes mostly filled with a confused glare. He opened his mouth to speak but paused and then turned towards his mirror and started to check himself out. “What is wrong with you?” He said with a sigh. I walked around and faced him again. “Nothing, I am perfectly fine,” I said with my gaze fixated on him. “I just want to know why you brought Trent here of all people to marry me?” I asked again. “Why the warrior?” My father cocked his head down, as he always does when he was fed up with a conversation. “I brought him here because I wanted to expand my business,” he said. “I asked Xander to, but he wasn't responsive…” he paused and looked at me. “Look, Xander wasn't interested in the business and I had to look for someone else. Someone willing to do what it takes, that's all it is about.” I looked at him, squinting my eyes, I now wore the former lo

Ember’s POVIt was already glooming darkness when I looked outside and saw Trent making his way to my quarters, probably to tell me one thing or another.I felt him walk in as I sat before my dressing table combing out my thick hair and turned at the sound of him entering.“Lovely evening is it not?” I said in my usual soft voice and he smiled nodding his head.“Lovely evening it is…” he held back the next thing he wanted to say for a moment, I felt his lingering gaze on my body probably taking in the utter ethereal beauty of which I was.I smirked to myself, my own thoughts made me giggle.“If there's something you want to say you ought to say it now.” I finished brushing my hair and turned to face him.He was as charming as ever.“Well, I'm leaving the pack Ember. I'm going on an important journey and I need you to manage the pack while I'm gone. Can you do that for me?’ he asked in all earnesty looking at me.I gave a slight frown as my expressions changed whilst looking at him.“A

Ember’s POVI was busy arranging some of my clothes back into my wardrobe. I was looking for a particular cloth and it took me a while to find it. However, when I finally did, I already had a mess with all my clothes and I decided to arrange them myself. I didn’t want to bother Rose for anything because this was a mess I made myself. I didn’t believe how people here treated maids, especially Elise. They were people too and even if they were supposed to work, they deserved to be treated with respect. When insulted and revoked for no reason they start acting up. I never really saw the need for I’ll treat anyone just because one is above them. It was going to take a while for anyone here to understand that. Elise was just trying to be valid. She just wanted an obvious difference between her and the maids. And I didn’t know why she had a beef with Rose especially but I wasn’t planning on allowing her to ridicule her.My phone buzzed as I picked it up to check who it was calling me thi

Ember's POV I don’t waste another second and ring up Trent. Part of me was in disbelief at what I had just heard.The phone rang once, then twice and then he picked up.“Hello?” He asked.Almost out of breath from holding my breath for too long while waiting for him I heaved.“Trent, there is something wrong with the accounts,” I hurriedly said before he tried to end the call.I was certain he was in the middle of something important and I was unwanted company at the moment.He made a sound of annoyance and sighed.“What accounts and what is wrong?” He asked.I blanked. “I... I don’t know. We just checked and... Look, I swear, I don’t even understand how that is happening but whoever managed the account was managing it wrong, the figures don’t match but... look they’re...”He huffed. “Listen, I don’t have the time for...”“Just listen to her Trent,” Elise said, coming to my aid. I breathe out a sigh of relief.“Alright. What’s the issue?” He asked.Elise took the phone from me and re
