William Redd.Peter and Parker arrive just as Emma recognizes me as her mate. But the scream that leaves his lips, when he asks what she had said, left me paralyzed again.I look up and know it’s not a magnificent sight, since Emma has her skirt hiked up to her waist. I am naked, sitting on the floor while she is curled up on top of me with her head on my shoulder.Emma looks at him and says, “William is my mate too, Peter. I haven’t entered a trance yet and I don’t know how many more minutes I have of sanity. But I need you to accept him too, Peter. You three are mine, as I am yours.”I see Parker place a hand on his shoulder as he says, “You can’t deny her this, Peter. And William is like our brother. There is no one else I would like to share her with, other than you and him.”Peter looks down and whispers, “Why didn’t you say anything, William?”“Because you said it yourself that you didn’t want to share her, even with Parker. I tried to avoid staying separated from her to please
Emma Spencer.Feeling the sharp pain of William’s bite, I fell onto the bed, panting heavily. I tried to open my eyes, but something stopped me. It felt like someone snatched my consciousness from my body and sent it somewhere else. It all felt very familiar, like the time Parker marked me.When I finally opened my eyes, I saw only darkness around me. Cold darkness, which only reminded me of loneliness. I was alone. Not even Mia was with me.I sat on the cold floor and hugged my legs with my head against them, while I regulated my breathing. I was trying to prevent my anxiety from skyrocketing and getting ready to scream madly because I didn’t know what was coming.A light breeze ran down my back, which sent a shiver through my entire body. I frowned and looked up. The darkness slowly gave way and gave way to something I had not seen before. A forest.Confused, I stood up suddenly. At first, I was scared because I didn’t know what this was, but then, everything became clear. I was see
Emma Spencer. Without pausing for another word from her, I fix my gaze upon her, anticipation building. I pounced on her, hugging her tightly. My tears fall as I respond to her, “thank you for giving your life for me, mom.” She, for a moment, remains motionless, but when she hears me speak to her, she hugs me back even tighter. I feel her tears fall as she replies, “I missed you so much, my girl. I understood that your safety relied on me not seeing you again. However, now that you're here, it's important to get yourself mentally and physically prepared for what's about to happen.” We separated as we both wiped away tears. On my right side I hear someone say, “Clarissa is right, Emma. You must prepare. You hold the fate of all Lycan in your hands.” I turn my head and see Artemis walking towards us with Hecate. Once they get to where we are, Hecate tells me, “You see what your family’s magic can do. But your heritage is even more powerful than Clarissa’s.” Artemis smirks, satisfied
Peter Bennett Emma opens her eyes wide and sits up quickly, panting, looking everywhere. She watches us while we stare at her, and I know that our faces only show... Fear. Yes. The three of us were terrified of losing Emma. Now, at any moment, she will enter the trance again and perhaps for as long as it lasts this time. “Fuck! Emma! Don’t do shit like that again! You almost scared the three of us to death!” I yell because I am so furious with her right now as I place my hand over my face. “What happened?” She tells us, frowning, very confused. “You died! That what’s happened!” William yells too. “It’s not possible. I was just asleep, like what happened when Parker marked me.” Parker takes her hands and says, “No, babe. You weren’t breathing.” She blinks many times while trying to regulate her breathing when she hears us so distressed about her. “I’m fine, guys. Really, I’m fine. But it’s so hot in here!” I raise an eyebrow at her as I slowly run my fingers up her leg, startin
Emma Spencer. I open my eyes slowly and the dim light coming through the window makes it difficult for me. Time seems to have slipped away from me, leaving me clueless about the day or hour. I only know that every fiber of my hair hurts. I never thought breathing could hurt so much. I try to move, but I find myself tangled between several limbs that are not mine. I look to my right and see William is there. Behind him is Parker, and to my left is Peter, sleeping peacefully. The stench of blood and bodily fluids irritates my nose. What the hell happened? I feel like I’ve been hit by a train. With great difficulty, I sit up in bed. I look around and see that the room is destroyed. It’s like there was a barroom fight in here. “Good morning, darling.” I look at Peter and say, “What the hell happened in here?” William places his hand on my waist and with his eyes closed he tells me, “Your heat. That’s what happened to us, love.” "Shush! Please be quiet, I implore you!” Parker cries,
Emma Spencer. After we came out of the heat trance, we went to see Maddie. We stayed with her during the afternoon and then returned with Peter to the mansion. William and Parker stayed with her. They feel even more possessive of Maddie than they do of me, which I love. The reason we’re coming back is that I haven’t yet interrogated the wolves that ransacked me and my parents’ house, and that’s something Mia needs to do. We don’t know why, but I agree with her. Mia has to take control of that interrogation. I sigh as Peter stops the car engine. He stares at me and says, “A penny for your thoughts? You are so quiet, darling.” I hang my head to the side and say, “I’m just thinking about how much my life has changed this week. My story has so many secrets, so many plots, that I never imagined that something like this could happen to someone. My convention days seem so far away…” Peter takes my hand, kisses it, and then places it on his heart, saying, “I know, honey. It’s a lot. Your
Emma Spencer.I’ve always known I could do that. I discovered it by accident when I was little, but the boy I did it to ran away terrified of the vision I had forced him to see. He was a human child. Now I know. Honestly, I don’t blame him. It’s quite scary when a person stares at you and without asking, you start seeing images in your mind, like a movie.After that incident, I avoided doing it. Although there were times when I was blamed for things I hadn’t done, and I wanted to show everyone that I had proof of my innocence. But I couldn’t. If I did, I risked them thinking I was a freak.So, I had to learn to outsmart others and always keep evidence of everything. So, I could survive school, university, and graduate school. Outsmarting everyone and thinking five steps ahead of everyone else.Peter says to me over the mental link, “What the hell was that dear?”I sigh, look at him and tell him through the link, “a skill I haven’t used since I was a child.”He frowns and says, “So it’
Emma Spencer.When I heard that dean Sheldon, who has been fundamental in my professional development, is actually Harry’s brother, my blood ran cold. I was left in an actual state of shock, unable to move.My brain was frantically trying to search for a reason, just one. But I couldn’t find any. How come he’s Harry’s brother, but he always helped me? Was it to keep me neutralized? Is everything Harry’s plan? I don’t understand!Peter’s growl snaps me out of my dazed thoughts. For a split second, I thought he was going to lash out at Rick, but I realized he’s frustrated. Like me.“Calm down, Peter. We get nothing out of getting upset.”“How can you be so calm, Emma? The dean is his fucking brother!”“I know. I’m just as shocked as you are, and I have a million questions.” Then I turn to Rick and say, “Last names are not the same. Are you sure they are brothers?”“The surnames are different because they are mother’s brothers. Patrick is older than Harry. He is the son of the first marr
