  “You are so beautiful,” he breathed again before he leaned to take a nipple into his mouth and Emily let out a small cry at the sensation. Without breaking the contact of his lips on her erect nipple, he lowered her to the ground. There bodies crushed the flowers underneath them as he slowly pulled his mouth away from nipple to giving it a lavish lick before pulling completely away.

  “Why…” she began, but he forestalled her question by finishing to undress her. His hands slid down her legs where the leggings rested at her feet where he pulled off her shoes and slid the rest of the clothes off her body.

  He worked his way back up her body kissing her legs as his hands followed her. At the apex of her thighs, he gave a sniff smelling her sweet arousal, but although he growled, he would wait for that pleasure. He continued up her body kissing her stomach before sliding back to her breasts and nipples going back and forward keeping them erect. He licked one and then the other one last time before he raised himself over her and he saw the passion in her eyes although they were clouded with apprehension.

  “It will be fine,” he whispered as he kissed her lips passionately and Emily, trusting Jay, as she ran his hands over his back and down his arms. She caressed his chest playing over his nipples and he growled with pleasure.

  They continued their love play until Jay leveled over her, “Ready, sweetheart?”

  Emily unable to talk nodded her head as Jay made him self comfortable between her legs and she felt his erection at the junction where no man has touched before.

  He kissed her hard on her lips before they traveled across her cheek and down into the notch of her neck. Emily tilted her head as she did in her vision and she felt his canines extend before he hesitated for a moment and Emily tightened her arms around his neck in permission.

  Her body tensed as his teeth bit into her neck and he penetrated her at the same time. Emily felt no pain from either one and she moaned in pleasure as his teeth retracted and he licked the wound close. Then he leaned up to kiss her lips deeply as he began to make love to her impaling himself deeply into her with each thrust and Emily tightened around him as she met his rhythm. Then Emily felt her body tighten as he plunged one last time and she screamed in pleasure as Jay growled his, and both of their bodies exploded as their orgasms rocked through them stealing their strengths.

  Jay slammed his mouth to hers as their bodies shuddered in the afterglow of pleasure. They collapsed against the ground crushing the flowers more. Emily opened her eyes to look into the sky as Jay rested against her his face in her neck.

  “That was definitely worth the wait,” she said hoarsely.

  Jay chuckled huskily as he leaned up looking down at her with glittering green eyes. He kissed her sweetly whispering, “Thank you”. Emily blushed as she knew what he was thanking her for and she relaxed against the earth as he started all over again.

  Miles away, Victoria getting ready for her date felt a cold draft fill the room. She frowned at the draft and yelled, “Turn up the damn heat”.

  She did not think anything else about it, but off in the corner a light shimmered briefly before it disappeared.

  Later that evening, Jay and Emily exited their field of wild flowers. Jay loved the blush that covered Emily’s cheeks at the looks they were getting from the other wolves. Emily now carried Jay’s scent letting the other males know that she was his and off limits.

  They had dinner as they both were hungry, and as they were eating, her teacher came over.

  “I hear that you are leaving tomorrow,” he stated as he sat down at their table.

  “We were as there is something we need to do before we head home,” Jay answered. Their teacher nodded his head before looking briefly at Emily who was focused on her food and did not notice the look.

  “You need to seek answers,” a voice drifted through her head and Emily glanced up sharply to look at the teacher. He nodded briefly to her, and then turned, and walked away.

  Emily’s eyes followed him before Jay said, “Emily”.

  She glanced over at him to see his eyes were narrowed, but not in anger and she swallowed as she felt her body heat up from his look alone.

  They went up to their room and before the door was closed, one could hear Jay say, “I promised myself something while were out there.”

  “Really,” Emily laughed, “What was that?”

  Before one could hear the answer, the door closed and no more was heard for the night, or if it was, it was ignored.

  Towards dawn, Emily shifted then stilled in Jay’s arms.

  “Myra,” she asked in surprise as she looked around and noticed she was in the field of wild flowers again.

  “Is this…” she began and Myra “the Old One” laughed.

  “No, merely visiting you in your dream world. I picked a place that means something special to you for our little talk,” and her eyes twinkled as the blush crossed Emily’s face.

  “Remember when we talked before about Victoria,” Myra asked.

  Emily nodded; “Something about Victoria using black magic…” she stopped there and paled.

  “Is she a witch?” she whispered.

  Myra shook her head, “No, she is a werewolf. She is not a very strong one because she relies on her looks instead of working on her own strength.”

  Emily nodded her head in understanding as Myra continued, “Victoria does not know yet what is going on though she has continued to go to the pack house. She knows Jay is not there but she believes that Stan likes her, and hopes to insinuate herself as Jay’s mate into the household.”

  Emily frowned but did not say anything.

  Myra said softly, “He was telling you the truth: you need to seek answers. You do not need to fear Victoria. While you help Garrett, seek the answers about Victoria…” She disappeared and Emily said confused, “Myra”.

  Then she heard clearly, “Victoria was from Garrett’s pack, and he knew her true mate.”

  Chapter 22

  Jay looked over at Emily as they finished the last leg of their trip to Garrett’s pack. He frowned as he focused on the road. Since early that morning, Emily had been silent and thoughtful as if something was on her mind. Jay disliked it when Emily did not talk to him although he could use their mate link to see what was troubling her; he preferred that she told him.

  Finally not able to take her silence any longer he asked angrily, “Okay, what is bothering you, Emily?”

  When she threw him a confused look, he explained, “You have been silent all morning. You have not talked to me the whole trip which tells me something is bothering you.”

  Emily bit her lip as she looked at him wondering what he would think if she told him about her dream.

  “Jay,” she began hesitatingly, “Can I ask you something without you getting upset?”

  They stopped at a light that was red and he turned to her with a quizzical look.

  “Go on,” he said quietly as the light turned green.

  “You told me that you confused the lust you felt for Victoria as the same sensations one feels for a mate. Is it possible that Arnold did the same thing as you concerning Victoria?” she asked.

  Jay was silent for a moment in shock as her question echoed in his head.

  Emily saw his reaction to her question and she sighed in relief. The question did not anger him as she thought it might as she observed the thoughtful look on his face.

  “I don’t know if Arnold thought the same thing or not,” he admitted finally.

  “Is it possible that she is his second mate?” she asked her eyes focused completely on his face so she did miss his look of surprise.

  He said slowly, “It is possible. I met Arnold a year before I met Victoria, and we were good friends although we were from different packs. Once Victoria came into the picture things changed although I did not realize it at first until Arnold to
ld me that he was going to mate with Victoria. I lost my temper and accused him of stealing my mate, and he had been surprised but at the time, I had not paid attention to his reaction. It was the last time that he and I had talked to each other.”

  “If I told you that Victoria was not originally a member of his pack, what would say?” she asked him seeking some answers before talking to Garrett.

  Jay eyes widened and he glanced at Emily quickly before turning his attention back to the road, “I thought she was for when I met her she was with Arnold and his pack members.”

  He glanced over at her, “What is with all these questions about Victoria?”

  Emily sighed as she put a hand on his forearm and she said, “I had a dream last night.” Then she proceeded to tell him about her dream, and the more she told him the tighter his jaw became.

  “Are you telling me that Victoria used some kind of black magic?” he asked harshly.

  “I don’t know,” Emily answered honestly, “From what Myra told me, she knows some basic things but she is no witch.” She noticed the set of his eyes and she squeezed his arm, “Jay, what you felt for her was real. The only thing she did was to enhance the feeling until you thought it was more than just lust.”

  They pulled up to the pack house where Garrett was a member and they were expected because Jay had made a call to the Alpha for his permission to come and see Garrett.

  Jay turned off the engine before he turned to Emily, and he had to laugh, “You are comforting me about my sense of ego that I was under some spell.”

  Emily giggled as she shook her head, “If you had not been attracted to her, I seriously doubt the spell would have worked.” Jay saw the look of pain and jealousy pass across her face and her eyes turned completely amber for a moment before they went back to brown with amber highlights.

  “I love you,” he whispered sliding a hand behind her neck to pull her to him and she whispered, “I know” before he grunted and kissed her.

  He broke the kiss as he said breathlessly, “Let us go see Garrett.”

  He had to laugh as it took Emily a moment to come out of her daze and she muttered as she climbed out of the car, “How is it that a kiss can turn my mind to mush.”

  Jay laughed again as they headed up to the pack house’s front door.

  Garrett walked into the pack house ten minutes after they arrived with a sigh as he wondered why his Alpha called him. Ever since his return from the training camp, he had made the point of staying away from the pack house unless he was needed by the Alpha. His wolf immediately caught the scent of his mate and he had to rein him in as he walked into the den.

  “Good, Garrett, you are here,” his Alpha said as soon as he entered the room.

  “Alpha…” he began until he caught another scent and his head jerked in surprise.

  “Emily, Jay,” he said and she smiled.

  “Surprise to see us, Garrett?” she teased as she walked over to give him a hug.

  He hugged her back tightly until he heard Jay growl.

  He laughed as he released her, “Definitely possessive, isn’t he?”

  Emily tilted her head to the side her eyes shining, “He is, but I love that about him.”

  They all heard the purr that followed and Garrett looked at Jay noticing that there was no embarrassment on his face.

  “So what are you two doing here?” Garrett asked wrapping an arm around Emily’s shoulders as they walked over to Jay.

  From the corner of her eye, Emily saw the young woman from her vision clench her fists. She felt a sensation as if she was being drugged and then it hit her.

  Jay, she is a were-witch, she mind linked before she passed out.

  Emily opened her eyes slowly as Jay looked down at her.

  “Emily,” he sighed grabbing her up into his arms. “You scared the life out of me when you collapsed.”

  “Sorry,” she apologized as she wrapped her arms around him while her mind fought off the spell the woman did on her.

  “Are you sure about what you told me?” Jay said softly as they heard the footsteps coming to the room. Emily just nodded her head as the door opened, and Garrett walked in followed by his Alpha and the young woman.

  “Emily, are you okay?” Garrett asked walking over to the bed and Emily sensed the tension from the young woman. Emily reacted fast and threw up her mental block which caused her to stumble back.

  “How…” she sputtered as the Alpha looked on in shock as Garrett too watched in confusion.

  The Alpha shook his head as he said, “I am Alpha Dillon and this is my cousin, Celeste.” He sent Celeste a glare as he said, “You need to apologize Celeste.”

  She folded her arms across her chest as she cocked her hip to the side.

  Garrett asked in confusion, “What does she need to apologize for?”

  Emily seeing his confusion and frustration said quietly, “Celeste is a were-witch.”

  Garrett’s eyes widened as he looked at Celeste, “Are you the reason that Emily collapsed?”

  Celeste fidgeted under his stare and she cried out, “All right so I was.” Then she glared at him, “But you should not have hugged her.”

  As Garrett stared at her, Emily saw realization dawn as he said quietly, “And what shouldn’t I hug my friend?”

  Celeste blushed as she muttered incoherently.

  Emily laughed as she sat up with Jay’s aid, and she said, “Garrett, Celeste knows who her mate is.”

  “But she has not shifted yet?” Garrett asked with a frown.

  Celeste answered this as she dropped her arms from her chest, “I am one of the few were-witches whose powers come before their first shift.” She stared at him with a complete look of adoration, “I have known that you were my mate since I was 14.”

  Garrett walked over to her and raised a hand to her face as he said, “The Beta told me that you were his mate although I knew it wasn’t true; I also knew that you had not shifted yet so…”

  She turned to her cousin, “I told you, Dillon.”

  “Damn,” Dillon said running a hand through his hair. At the others look of confusion, he explained, “Celeste had a twin sister who died when she was 13 in the same attack that killed Celeste’s parents. Unfortunately, she was my beta’s mate and he lost it. I though he was over it, but Celeste has been telling me that he had been very possessive of her in the last year or so. I just thought she was imagining it but if he told you that she was his mate, Garrett, then maybe there is some truth to it.”

  Emily asked, “Was she one of the few too? Did she know who her mate was?”

  “She was,” Celeste confirmed, “But she did not who her mate was at that time although she probably would have known when she turned 14 like me.”

  There was a knock on the door after her explanation and it opened before anyone said “enter”.

  A pregnant woman entered first and from Dillon’s smile, everyone could see that she was his mate, followed by a sandy haired man who was frowning.

  “Honey,” the pregnant woman said, “Is everything okay?”

  “Everything is fine, sweetie,” he said as he walked over to her and pulled her into his arms.

  The man started to say something as he narrowed his eyes on Garrett whose hand still rested on Celeste’s face, but before he could Emily said quickly, “I am hungry.”

  Everyone looked at her and laughed as she blushed and hid her face in Jay’s chest. The only person who was not laughing was the Beta who was looking on with narrowed eyes.

  She peeked up at Celeste and Garrett, and she noticed the look of fear that came across Celeste’s face before she turned to Garrett with a smile. The Beta growled and walked out of the room.

  Dillon sighed as his mate said, “What is going on?”

  Dillon said to her, “I will explain later.” Then he looked at Emily w
ith a smile tugging at his mouth, “Let’s get you something to eat.”

  The next day was Celeste’s 16th birthday and she was excited for she told Garrett that she would allow him to mark her. Garrett was just excited as he sat with Jay and Emily in the living room of his house.

  “Excited,” Jay teased.

  Garrett said seriously, “I have been waiting for this since I was 16. I am just lucky that she wants me for her mate.”

  “Garrett, there is nothing wrong with you,” Emily said with a frown. “Why would you think something like that?”

  Garrett ran a hand through his hair before he answered, “I had an older brother who discovered his mate when he was 16 too, but she was a year younger and had not shifted yet. Instead of waiting until she shifted, he told her they were mates. She seemed at first happy about it, but I found out differently later on.”

  Emily was about to ask a question when her vision blurred for a moment.

  Celeste was crying, “I am not my sister, I am not your mate!”

  The Beta stood over as he looked down at her, “I will not let anyone else have you. You were supposed to replace her, but instead you wanted that mutt. I would have been a much better catch then him.”

  Celeste moved her hands quickly but he hit her fast knocking her out, “I know what you are just like her.”

  He picked her and ran off into the woods.

  Emily came out of the vision shaking as she said, “Celeste is in trouble.”

  Jay was up and reaching for the phone before Garrett could even react.

  “Dillon, it is Jay. Is Celeste there?” he asked looking at his pale-faced mate sitting on the couch.

  Jay listened to what was said before adding, “We will be there in a few minutes.”

  He hung up as Emily eased to her feet.

  “Celeste just went missing. Dillon said that he got a brief message from her before she was cut off,” Jay explained as they ran out of the house.

  Garrett was frowning as they got into the car, “Why did I not feel anything?”
