Chapter 3 The Deal

The announcement made by Selena in the family group was quickly responded to by the group members. Especially Emilyn, she immediately refused to meet with her Mate.

"No. As always, I refuse. And don't meddle in my Mate's business." Emilyn replied quickly.

"Yes, my lady. James and I will always be your shield."

Percy typed back to Emilyn. As usual, Percy was very excited when dealing with Emilyn's mates.

"That person is from the Bloodvenom Pack. This involves the lives of our family. I hope you will be wise."

Selena typed back to Percy, before she locked the group so that no more messages could enter.

"It's always Percy being the stupid guy." Selena snarled behind her cell phone.

"James. I hope you can understand our situation now."

Selena sent James a message.

The next morning, all the members had gathered at the Moonstone residence. With the exception of Emilyn, she was still quietly curled up in her thick blanket.

Tok Tok

"Go away James! I want to sleep," Emilyn replied quickly.

Emilyn knew very well that it was James who knocked on the door. Not long after, there was the sound of footsteps moving away.

"I don’t get married with my Mate," Emilyn said, pulling up the blanket.

Not long ago the knocking sound came again. It was loud and continuous.

Tok tok tok

"Hurry up and prepare to bath. The family and special guests have been waiting for you since earlier," A woman so loudly.

Emilyn growled in annoyance. Her scent could recognize the person she was avoiding was in her house.

"Yes, I'm coming," Emilyn replied quickly, not wanting to hear her grandmother's hoarse voice again.

Finally, Emilyn decided to wash her face and put on a little makeup. At least her face didn't look too dull and miserable.

"Who the hell is that ignorant bastard," Emilyn muttered to herself in the mirror.

After finishing her makeup without taking a shower.

She had to climb the stairs from the second floor of her spacious house. Anyone would complain if they were in the Moonstone family home.

Entering the living room, Emilyn's gaze fell on the masculine man who was obviously’s Mate. She could not smell the man's scent from a distance. Because a

Lycan could not smell the scent of a body he had just met.

All the family had gathered, including his grandmother who still looked young and gracefully sipped the tea in her hand.

"Perfect. Two annoying people in one day." Emilyn was annoyed.

"Grandma's looking at my appearance again." Emilyn grumbled before sitting down.

"Very good. You guys should finish this damn guy off right away." Emilyn thought happily.

Ekhem…,

The deafening sound automatically made Emilyn turn to the source of the sound.

Lucyana Moonstone, mother of Jack Moonstone. Lucyana was of pure Vampire descent and married a pure human, Damian Moonstone. But it was unfortunate. Damian did not want to be a Vampire when he died.

"Sorry I'm late," Emilyn said trying to be polite with a flat face.

"Emilyn. Look at yourself. Soften up a bit in the presence of your Mate," Lucyana said.

"It doesn't matter. No matter how gentle I am, it will never change my Lycan form into a beautiful and gentle wolf. Let alone a beautiful blood-sucking woman like you," Emilyn's sarcasm was unacceptable.

Emilyn never got along with Lucyana because Emilyn always rejected her Matenya, which annoyed Lucyana.

"Emilyn! Be a little polite. What you say!" Jack snapped not liking what Emilyn said.

"I say a fact," Emilyn replied lightly.

"Daddy. Don't bother Emilyn, just let her be. Maybe she's still upset because lately her sleep has been disturbed because of the nightmares that always come every time there is a new Mate," James interceded.

"What? Nightmares? What do you mean?" the man interrupted.

The man who claimed to be Emilyn's Mate frowned. He suspected that something was being hidden from him about Emilyn's past.

"Not a bad thing," Jack said briefly.

Jack didn't know that Emilyn had another nightmare. Jack was worried that Loye would continue to haunt Emilyn.

"Emilyn did not want to share it with us. But I will tell you that Emilyn has had twelve mates so far. The results were all rejected, some withdrew and also some...,"

"They died because they didn't want to reject me," Emilyn countinued with a smirk.

The man stared in disbelief at Emilyn. The man's irises seemed to have many questions.

"I'll talk to you about it later. I'm sure you already know clearly the purpose of my being here," the man said with an unreadable look.

"I will marry Emilyn as soon and take her with me," the man continued quickly.

They were silent for a moment. Emilyn and her future

Mate's gazes met. Unreadable to each other.

"Sorry. I'm not interested in being your Lun,." Emilyn said firmly.

It was exactly what the Moonstone family thought. Emilyn would definitely reject Mate’s back.

"If you don't want to. Lady Selena will never get the water of immortality," threatened the man gently.

"What a hassle!" Emilyn screamed inwardly.

How could she let her Mommy not drink the water of immortality. It was a confusing situation for Emilyn.

"Alright," Emilyn said reluctantly.

"Sweet girl. I will pick you up tomorrow morning. Our wedding day will soon be held at my Pack," the man said with a faint smile.

A little talk before leaving Moonstone's house. The man seemed to smile proudly while Emilyn showed her annoyed face.

James and Percy still looked incredulous at Emilyn's decision. Throughout the conversation, James and Percy were silent, holding back their emotions because of the Alpha's threats.

"I don't love that man. I just want a quiet life and most importantly, there's no way I'm letting Mommy leave all of us. Also, it would be very dangerous if James and

Percy killed the Alpha of Pack Bloodvenom. I've thought it all through. You don't need to ask too many questions." Emilyn said before being bombarded with questions.

"You're smart Emilyn. Just like I wanted," Lucyana praised.

"I don't need your praise," Emilyn said as she walked away from the Moonstone family.
