Chapter Seventeen

*Zack's POV*

It has been 2 months since I have been turned into a vampire. My bloodlust is overwhelming, and I have been told it would be like this for a few years. My new powers are amazing. I have never felt such strength and agility. I have speed, strength, night vision and mind control. My future is looking bright. I stay with the vampire who turned me so he can show me how to use my powers and overcome my blood lust. I have not been around humans or the wolves since I turned.

The turning experience form human to vampire was excruciating. I felt like every bone in my body was broken. I could feel my fangs extend through my gums and moving the rest of my teeth to accommodate them. My blood felt like it was boiling my skin off and my eyes felt like they were melting out of my head when they adjusted to my new vampire vision. Now that the pain and torment is over, I feel like a completely new person. With becoming a vampire not only came the blood lust but also came heightened emotions. I was more ready than ever to gain my Emily back.

"How are you feeling today?" My mentor asks me.

"Hungry." I say to him. I am always hungry. The hunger feels like it is eating me inside and out.

"That's normal. Which is why we are living in the middle of nowhere. We cannot take the chance of you smelling humans or wolves. You would become uncontrollable and not be able to stop once you get a taste of fresh blood."

"I am just ready to get this under control so I can get me girl back." I say to him.

"You still have a few years, but the good thing about all of this is that you will have forever with her. Wolves stop aging when they hit 25." He says positively.

"That's good to know. A lifetime of sex and obedience." I say picturing my future in my head.

"I will go find us some food. Be back in a while." He says and leaves.

I am looking forward to the future. I can use my mind control to bend Emily to my will. She will be the perfect partner. I will no longer have to fight with her. I can just control her. I cannot wait to erase that boy wolf and her children from her head. The look on his face when he realizes his mate no longer knows who he is will be priceless. One thing I did before being turned was store my sperm. Emily may have to give up her children with her mate, but she will be able to have a child with me. My future with her are limitless. We will have our family and happy ending.

*Emily's POV*

Being home with our pups and Braxton has been a dream. Seeing him interact with our pups is one of the happiest moments of every day. He is an amazing father. I still feel sad that I missed out on their first few months of life, but we have an eternity to make up for it. Braxton and I have set a wedding date for us again and we are planning to tie the knot in 2 days. I did not want to put our marriage off any longer. We belong together and I am tired of waiting. The twin’s bedroom was more than I could have ever hoped for. Braxton had the room painted a pale yellow to make the room neutral for both pups. He got 2 cribs for the pups. Leah's crib is white, and Logan's is black. They sit side by side. Braxton had the ceiling painted a pitch black accompanied with stars and a full moon that the pups can see from their cribs. He had a toy box custom made with both their names on it. It is half white and half black and sits beside their closet door. Their closet is stocked full of diapers, wipes, clothes and blankets. He has made everything so perfect.

Today I have a checkup appointment with the doctor to check on my internal healing. Before meeting Braxton, I never imagined having children. I thought I would be stuck with Zack. When I found out Braxton and I were having twins so soon after we were together, I never thought about having any more children. But when someone tells you that you may never be able to have children again your heart breaks. When I hold our pups in my arms, I think about never getting to experience this again and it breaks my heart. Braxton does not talk about it, but I know he has always wanted a big family. I can see it hurts him as well to think that our twins may be the only kids we have.

A few days after arriving home Braxton broke the news to me that Zack escaped. The coldness that swept over my body was overwhelming. I still do not know what to think or how to take the news. I am scared he is going to come for me every day. Braxton always has 5 wolves posted outside our home and anytime I go anywhere I have 2 wolves that follow me. Braxton has a full crew constantly searching for Zack and I know he will find him someday. We just have to be patient.

I pull into the pack hospital parking lot and take a deep breath. 'Everything is going to be fine.' I tell myself. I get out of the car and head into the doctor’s office. My two bodyguards a few feet behind me. Braxton is probably inside waiting for me to arrive. Sure, enough when I open the doors, I find him immediately. He comes up to me and folds me into his arms. "It's going to be okay baby. No matter what." He says.

"I know. We can always adopt if we get worst case scenario." I shrug it off.

We walk into the exam room and I undress from the waist down. The doctor comes in shortly after and starts his exam. After taking some photos and taking some blood he turns to look at us. "I am happy to say that you are healing better than I could imagine. It looks like you guys will be able to have more children one day." He says smiling at us.

Braxton and I look at each other and both smiles. "Thank you, doctor." We say at the same time.

The doctor bids farewell and I get dressed. Braxton takes my hand, and we walk out of the pack hospital full of hope and bright thoughts of our future.
