Evvie’s POV:“Wait.” He said, cutting me off.He tilted his head, watching me with a look I can’t decipher.“You’re not here so you could reject me or the pack, are you?” He asked, and I scoffed.“Believe me, I am.”Before arriving the territory, I did my own research, knowing everything I had to know about the guy.His name is Logan Elias Reed. The only heir to the Shadow Blood Pack. Once he’d taken his rightful position as Alpha, he began to thirst for more.Leaving his pack in the care of his beta, he proceeded to satisfy his thirst and went about a nationwide hunting spree.One by one, he turned down each alpha, leaving them all begging for their lives. In exchange, they offer him their packs.A bunch of spineless Alphas who don’t think twice about giving up their packs to save their own skin. This is precisely why my pack, the Black Moon Pack, relies on no alpha, but on each other.It disgusts me to think they took one look at this monster of a man and decided they’d better escap
Evvie's POV:He swiped his car keys from his pocket and turned to Logan’s huge-ass wolf. Unlike mine, his was the color of pure white. He's beautiful, and I've been fighting the urge to stare at him as we ran our way back. My wolf has been watching his every move in awe, making it difficult not to gawk at him.“I ask your permission to take my sister home, Alpha.” Ethan said, bowing his head in submission.Logan’s eyes glazed over, letting me know they were having a silent conversation through mindlink. Whereas I stood there awaiting his decision. But that just won’t do.With a huff, I strutted straight to my brother’s truck. I refuse to let him or the alpha make decisions for me like this was five years ago.I won’t take bullshit from anyone anymore.I decide what to do. And right now, I decide to go home, take a nice, sweet, bubble bath, and go to bed in nothing but my underwear.Yep, the decision is final.“Where are you going?” Logan’s deep voice floated in my head.“Home. I don’t
Zachary’s POV:“Fuck!” I growled, stomping inside my tiny apartment.I picked up the first thing I set my eyes on and banished it right out the window. My nose flaring as an overwhelming rage swept over me.I thrashed the whole room, recalling the words Ethan said about half an hour ago.“She belongs to the alpha, now. There’s nothing you or I can do to reverse this.” He snarled, grabbing me just as I shifted back to my human form.Duncan howled in pain, anger, and frustration as our eyes followed the Alpha’s wolf out the door.“He’s going after mate!” He roared. I then released a thunderous growl that shook the entire packhouse, but since it couldn’t reach Evvie or that asshole for an alpha, it’s useless.“Go home, Zach.” Ethan ordered, like our roles as Beta and Gamma were reversed.Instead of taking his advice, I snapped my eyes to him and snarled.“We had a fucking deal.”“The deals off. Fate has decided. You had your chance!” He barked, and my stomach sunk at his words.I opened
Evvie’s POV:The sound of my phone buzzing made me stir awake as I extended my hand to grab my phone under my pillow. I was half-asleep when I answered, pressing the phone against my ear with my eyes still shut.“Hello?” I greeted in a groggy voice.“Hey sleepyhead,” Pixie.“Goddess, do you know what time it is?” I asked, groaning.“Girl, you tell me.” She giggled and I groaned, forcing one eye open to look at the time above my screen.“Fuck!” I hissed. My head instantly jolting up from my comfy pillow as I glared at the screen.Pixie snorted whilst I plopped my head back down.“Can’t blame me. This is when I normally wake up.” Working night shifts as one of the elite warriors on the hunt? Yeah, waking up at exactly 12 noon became my norm.“Where’s Casey?” I asked, rubbing my eyes.“She’s in her room. Typing away as always.”“Right.”“What time did you arrive?” she asked.“Around four p.m. yesterday, I think. Why?”“I suppose you’ve already reunited with… that guy?”“Who?”It took me
Logan’s POV:When my mate rejected the pack, I knew she just made the biggest mistake in her life.“So…” Carlos started as he leaned against the wall in my office whilst I sat back in my chair.“Why did you let her do it?”“Do what?” I asked, acting clueless.“Renounce the pack. You know what that would do to her wolf.” Carlos thought I wouldn’t notice it. But his furrowed brows and tense muscles easily gave him away.“Since when did you concern yourself with a woman?” I asked calmly.“Since I found out she’s going to be my luna!” He snapped.“She’ll come back.”I know it.“The consequences would be severe.” Carlos added, letting out a breath.“Which is why she has no choice.” I smirked. Just then, a knock came on my door. And the scent of strawberries and roses invaded my nose instantly, making my mouth water.I nodded at Carlos who pushed himself off the wall, opening the door.“Alpha.” Marcus, the former Gamma of this Pack, walked in with his daughter by his side.My lips tugged u
Evvie’s POV:Barrak was right. He’s always right.After walking out of the pack house, I barreled towards Ethan’s truck. Slipping into the driver’s seat, I ditched the keys and triggered the ignition using the wires. It was one of the many things we rogues developed as a skill. My heart thundered in my chest as I reversed, accidentally bumping into a flashy red mustang parked out front. Ignoring a pair of dark eyes boring holes into my back, I punched the gas and drove off.Angry tears threatened to spill out but I fought them back.“Mates are so fucking overrated.” Barrak’s voice flitted through my head.Barrak was right. He’s always right. I thought to myself, and my mind just drifted off.TWO YEARS AGOIt was one of those days. We just finished training under Barrak’s watch. It was just me and him in the locker room.Pixie wasn’t feeling well, so she told me she was heading back first. I had offered to accompany her on the way in case she fainted, but she refused, leaving me alone
Logan’s POV:“Are you going to tell me why the fuck my mate is tied up in a chair and knocked out?” I growled, letting my aura slip out.Carlos barely winced, but he staggered back and hit his back against the wall.“Calm down, Alpha, I can explain.” He said, holding his hands up in an attempt to tame the seething beast inside me.Against my wolf’s wishes to tear our beta into pieces, I withdrew my aura, taking in deep, slow breaths as I closed my eyes to silence my raging wolf.“You let our mate go. I don’t like it,” Tristan grumbled nastily in my head.He was right, and I was about to as soon as Carlos tells me what the fuck was going on his head.My wolf growled again. The sound echoing strongly across the four walls in this empty room in the basement of the pack house. I had no idea why my beta brought her here, but there was one thing I was sure of. He is going to suffer severe consequences way worse than the kick she’d managed to land to his balls.Besides, I couldn’t bear to wa
Evvie’s POV:If there’s one thing I absolutely hate the most, it is the idea of being forced into anything.I growled, my voice dripping with venom as I huffed in frustration.“Is he fucking sick in the head?” I lashed out at no one in particular.I could feel my blood boil as I recalled the smug look on his face when he looked down at me.Fucking coward.“Or he’s just pissed.” Vana butted in my thoughts, making me huff at her.“If anyone should be pissed, that would be me.” I hissed.I could feel Vana walking in circles in my head and my eyes roll.Couldn’t she stop purring for one minute?“Well, you did call the Blood Alpha a coward.”I scoffed at her. “Excuse me, whose side are you on?”“Oops. Gotta run.” She snickered and suddenly backed off.And I wondered where the fuck does a wolf in my head could possibly run off to.Leaving Vana alone, I returned my attention to my surroundings.I had never been to this area of the pack house before. Most of the times I came here had been whe
