Chapter 56
Emery
"I feel so out of place here, Emery. I'm not family, I shouldn't be here.” Miss Beatrice states from behind me.
I turn around and smile at the older woman and then hug her, "You have been my family for almost three years, Miss Beatrice..."
"Enough with the 'Miss Beatrice' then, just call me Bea," she cuts me off, "If you are insisting that I stay then you must introduce
me to everyone."
Grinning, I link my arm through hers and I start making our way around the party. I'm honored to introduce my former instructor;
she's done so much for me and my mates and deserves to be recognized for it. It's only when we are about halfway through
when I hear a low growl and the word 'Mate' comes across the crowd.
Shockingly, it's my uncle Brent that is standing there staring at my former instructor. I was hoping that they would hit it off, but I
never imagined that he would have a second mate like his sister. I cover my mouth and chuckle.
"Wait, what does that mean? Why is that man staring at me, Emery?" Bea asks worriedly.
"Do you not feel anything towards him?"
"Huh? I mean, I am attracted to him, of course, he looks like a Greek God but..."
I burst out laughing, "Bea, you are his second chance mate!"
"What? Get out of here; he doesn't want these old bones!" She scoffs and then notices that he is beelining his way right to us
and turns her back to him, "Oh, my God, Emery...he's coming over here!"
"Of course he is; he's coming to collect his mate." I chuckle at the look on her face.
"Look at me, Emery! I'm not even pretty at the moment! I just threw something on and barely put any make up on!" She runs her
fingers through her dark hair with silver highlights.
"You look beautiful, Bea; I promise." I try to reassure her.

"Hello, I don't think we have been introduced yet." I glance up at my uncle as he stands behind Bea, waiting for her to
acknowledge him.
She turns slowly, "Hi, I'm Beatrice but my friends call me Bea."
"Uncle Brent, this is my former instructor from the school I went to. She's also been helping me and my mates out of the little
situations that we seem to keep getting ourselves into." I smile as I look back and forth between the two who are now just staring
at one another, "Oh, I think Decker needs me; will you be okay here with Brent?" I ask Bea and all she does is wave me off.
"Yeah, yeah, I'm fine dear. Go do what you need to do." I chuckle and then walk away, in search of one of my three Alphas.

I find all three of my mates, on the ground, under a pile of pups. I swear if I didn't know any better I'd say that they were all still
pups themselves only in full grown Alpha bodies. I remain where I am, smiling at the sight before me. All three brothers look so
sweet as they smile and laugh with the kiddos, making fake monster noises and coming up onto their knees, causing the pups to
tumble to the
"--ding into pages now
ground, laughing their little butts off.
I'm not sure what I did to deserve them as my mates but I will never take them for granted. I love each of them the same and yet
differently but just as fiercely as the others. Instead of disturbing them, I slip away and make my way down into the cells. I've
been. wanting to come here all day, but kept getting distracted.
"Hello Luna..." The two guards greet me and I acknowledge them. with a warm smile.
"Hello to you as well. Would one of you be so kind and escort me to the prisoner. I would like to have a word with him, and I
doubt your Alphas would be happy if I went on my own."
"Of course, Luna!" The bigger of the two steps in beside me and we continue down the steps to the cells.
"Has he given you any trouble?" I ask the guard.
"Not that he can but no, he's been pretty quiet."
"Hm, he probably doesn't know what to do with himself now that he doesn't have his magic." I smirk as we walk down the lighted.
hall..

Since he's pretty much human now, he's kept in a reinforced glass cell, so we can see what he is doing at all times. The guard
stands off to the side as I step up and study the man lying on the cot. He has it much better than I did that's for sure.
"It doesn't feel good, does it? Being locked up and away from your loved ones." I speak loud enough, so he can hear me.
I hear his laughter first before he sits up and stares at me. It really is too bad that he's psychotic because he's a good-looking
guy and could easily find someone good for him if only he hod goodness in
him.
"Couldn't stay away from me, could you?" He licks his lips, "I much rather prefer you naked, Emery."
Kiki growls, "It's Luna to you, asshole!"
"Oh, did I hit a nerve on your wolf? I should have killed the bitch. when I had the chance."
'Just ignore him, Kiki. I just have a couple questions and then we will rejoin the party.' I say soothingly.
'Fine, but just know that if I get the chance, I'm going to be the one to tear his balls off."
I chuckle inwardly, 'It's a deal.
I turn my attention back to my uncle, "Can you at least tell me why you thought that it would be a good idea to kidnap your own

flesh and blood and plan to take her against her will, against fate?"
"I don't need to answer that but I will tell you this...you would have been treated better than all of my whores." He fucking winks
at me and my stomach rolls.
"You are fucking sick; do you know that? I am so glad that you will never have the chance to hurt anyone ever again." I sneer.
"Are you sure about that?"
"Oh, I am quite sure, Colin. The only time you will ever leave this cell is when you are going to your death."
"Then do it already, and quit stalling."
I grin smugly at him, "We are only waiting for your mother to arrive, so she can watch her precious son perish before we end her

well."
He begins to laugh hysterically, "I find it funny that you think my mother will take my death laying down. She will bring the whole
council down upon your territory!"
"Oh, we are counting on that." I smirk one last time and leave him standing there, gawking at me. He's thinking hard about what
I'm saying and now it's beginning to dawn on him that we may just have the upper hand and that we may just win this war. I
mean, I'm no psychic or anything but I'm good about reading people, and I know I have the wheels turning in his head now.
The guard falls in beside me once more as we make our way up the steps; Colin is pounding on the glass as he calls out for me
to come back. Fresh air hits me as we open the door to the outside. world only to find three big Alphas walking our way, all with
frowns on their faces.
Asher is the first to say something, only it's to the guards and not me, "Pass it on to the other guards on duty that their Luna is
not to visit the prisoner without one of us present."
"Excuse me?" I cock a brow, "Since when are you the boss of what I can and can't do?"
"Since you became our Luna and are now under our protection. You will not put yourself in harm's way ever again." This coming
from Holden this time and I put one hand on my hip as I point to him.
"I suggest you rethink your words, mate! I can take care of myself," I turn towards Asher, "And if I want to go down and talk to a
prisoner, then I will! I even took a guard with me because I knew you wouldn't want me going by myself, but don't ever say that I
can't see a prisoner." I turn towards my last mate who has
remained quiet and cock my brow at him.
Decker holds his hands up defensively and takes a step back. I point at him as I look at my other two mates, "I suggest you take
some pointers from your younger brother because he's the only one who seems to know how to keep his mouth shut." I step up
to Decker and press my lips to his briefly, "Thank you for not being such a hot head. Looks like you will be the only one getting
lucky tonight."
I turn and glare at my other two mates and then start to walk away, only to hear Holden and Ash growl at the youngest of the
three, "Kiss ass!" I grin and just keep walking. '
Thank you so much for reading, peeps! =)
