He dropped his head, his fingers brushing over the back of the armchair. “There’s a lot happening back at the pack. Rumors. Tension. Mother thinks it might be better if you... returned.”“To what? The same place where I was cast out? The same home that turned its back on me when I needed it most?” I
Caspian:“You ran over to tell her, didn't you?” I said, looking at Elias, who raised an eyebrow at me.The man hadn't seen me. Seeing him, watching him head to Valerie's villa, I did not expect him to want to come with me, but when he did, I did not expect her to be welcoming him inside. That's all
“Did you really believe that whatever you told her was going to make you to get back to normal, was going to fix up whatever relationship that's two of your hottest siblings?” I asked, raising an eyebrow.“If I needed fixing when it came to anything, trust me Caspian, I would have fought you a littl
Valerie:“I want you to give this to Mom.” I said, looking at my brother who frowned in confusion as he looked down at the pendant that I had in my hand.“You can't be serious, Valerie. It was a wedding gift from her. She gave it to you when you were getting married. You cannot be seriously returnin
Simply because it included my son, had it not included him, had it not included Adrian, I was going to ignore things. What good did I have intruding in something that did not concern me?I walked inside the house without bothering to knock on the door. I did not need to knock on it anyway. It was th
Caspian:I took a deep breath as I walked out of the villa, knowing that this was not something that I was going to be getting out of easily.And though I did not want this to happen, I knew that it was going to be the one way for me to be able to control things, for me to get to Valerie, to push me
Eva:Never in my life did I feel as blind as I felt today.Never was I as angry as I was today. I was not just angry, I was furious. And right now I wanted nothing more than to break the man who broke me so badly. But I knew this. It was not his fault. He was merely seduced. It was her fault for com
“Do you really think that Caspian is not going to be looking for me? Even if I do leave, he is going to end up sending search parties to find his son. Do you think that it is going to end well for me if he finds him?” She asked, taking a seat in front of me.“That is something that I can deal with.
Eva:I read the paper, the message, three times before throwing it in the bin as my heart raced against my chest.Daniel, who was asleep, did not acknowledge the war that his mother was going through. I did not want him to, but this was getting too hard for me to be able to handle on my own.“Take c
Caspian:The room was dimly lit, the soft glow of the lanterns casting shadows along the walls. The steady rhythm of Valerie’s breathing filled the silence, but it did nothing to ease the tightness in my chest.Just as she has been for the past few days.She was still unconscious. Still unmoving.Th
Giovanni:Eva paced the length of the dimly lit study, her arms crossed tightly over her chest, her movements sharp with frustration. I leaned back in my chair, watching her with mild amusement as I swirled the dark amber liquid in my glass.She was angry. Impatient. Reckless.Typical.“You had her,
Caspian:Valerie looked small.I had never seen her like this, pale, still, vulnerable. The woman who had spent the last few months defying me, challenging me at every turn, was lying unconscious on the infirmary bed, her breathing shallow, her body still.The sight twisted something deep in my ches
Caspian:Something was wrong.“She left the pack grounds, Alpha.” Mateo said, looking at me. I have been looking for value for the past hour. I needed to speak to her and yet she was nowhere to be found. “If you are going to ask about Adrian, he is in the pack, he's in the villa. She went out for a
“You are an interesting woman. No wonder she took your place, Eva.” The man said, and I raised an eyebrow.“I see that you have managed to find yourself a new toy to play with.”“And I am surprised that a Caspian is not putting you in place. You seem to forget that I am the alpha and not her.” The m
Valerie:I knew that I shouldn't be feeling bad for him.I knew that this was a path that he drew for himself, that everything that he was getting was a result to the consequence of his choices.When I looked at him, when I saw his pain in his eyes as Adrian called him Alpha Caspian, I couldn't help
Caspian:I walked through the halls of the packhouse, my mind clouded with thoughts I couldn’t shake.Words that I did not want to allow myself to digest.Nor did I want to allow myself to see them in this normal. Because I knew deep down that it was not.Alpha Caspian.That was what Adrian called m
Valerie:I walked through the halls of the pack house, my steps steady, but my mind was far from calm.I was still angry. Still irritated. And if I let myself think too much about everything that had happened, the accusations, the betrayal, the way Caspian had thrown me into this mess without a seco
