He murmured against my neck, causing me to go hot for him. "Love is a weakness. If you think I’ll fall for it, my little mate, you’re more foolish than I thought." ________ Eve never imagined her fated mate would be the Lycan King who murdered her family. Poisoned and left to die by her ex-husband, she’s forced to seek healing from the king. Axel saves her life, unaware of their connection, while Eve’s wolf grows more desire for the man she’s vowed to destroy. Consumed by hatred and an undeniable pull, Eve faces an impossible choice: fulfill her oath of vengeance or surrender to the bond that defies reason. Can Eve resist the beast that calls to her soul, or will fate shatter them both?

I twisted, trying to free myself, but it was pointless.When Axel wanted something, he didn’t ask, he took it. His lips brushed the shell of my ear. “Why are you fighting me?” “You’re supposed to be holding court right now. They’re waiting. I can't go with you.”“Are you scared of the people who fear me? Those trembling cowards who shake in their boots the second I walk into a room?”His gaze on me was intense, that piercing hazel that seemed to burn straight through me. “I’m not scared of them. I'm not scared of you either.”A knowing smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and before I could say another word, he leaned in and pressed his lips to my neck. His kiss was hot, just above the place where my pulse jumped like a wild thing. I shivered.If he just opened his mouth and sank his teeth into that spot, jus
ShaharI drank from bottles, one after another. The liquor poured down my throat until I became drowsy and my head hit the table.Hours later, my eyes opened and I groaned. My neck hurt. My hand wiped the drool on my beard and mouth. The mattress sagged as I lay on it and my eyes closed as I hit the pillows.I woke up the next morning with one clear decision burning in my chest: to go find Crystal.The Wild Fangs Pack was about a four-hour journey by road from here. If I left before sunrise, I could make it there in time. I could’ve cut that time in half by air, but I hated flying. Something about being in the air, detached from the ground, felt unnatural. Most Lycans didn’t like it either. We were creatures of earth and instinct, grounded and primal. The air felt like a lie. You couldn’t scent your surroundings. You couldn’t feel danger. You couldn’t trust the skies. No matter how convenient air travel was, it always stripped me of control.Crystal knew her friend betrayed and manip
Shahar Axel's car screeched away. The sound slammed into me, igniting a fire that burned through my veins. I felt the urge to shatter something and unleash the fury that threatened to consume me.My growl echoed through the living room. It was a primal call that summoned the anger from the depths of my chest. My heart pounded hard.How dare they think they can waltz in here and police how I react?Axel truly hurt me. This was a deeply personal betrayal. The bond we shared went beyond familial ties. We were closer than brothers.We had fought side by side, bled together, and buried our dead together. He knew every dark thought I kept hidden, and I knew his. We didn’t need words to understand each other; a look and a twitch of the jaw was enough. That’s what made this so unbearable.The fact that he knew exactly what this would do to me and still did it anyway made me hate him. And until things took this ugly turn, I could’ve sworn I’d take a bullet for him without blinking. Now, I was
EveAxel had long since fallen asleep, but I lay wide awake, my thoughts running in circles.I hadn't even spoken when he told me he loved me and wanted to marry me. I couldn't. If I had, I might have cried,or worse, let the weight of it all crush me.So instead, I kissed him.I let my body speak for me.It was slow, deep, intense—the most passionate we had ever been. Maybe because, for the first time, my body recognized that Axel truly loved me. And despite everything, despite him not being perfect—despite me not being perfect, despite the secrets we both hid that could destroy us—there was something comforting about knowing that his love was for me and not just the mate bond.A small victory.Slowly, I sat up, careful not to disturb his peaceful slumber. The sheets slipped down, exposing my bare skin to the moonlight.I turned my gaze to Axel, watching the gentle rise and fall of his chest. The lines on his forehead softened in sleep—creases that deepened when he smiled or frowned.
Eve I paced around Axel's chamber like a lunatic, a hot mess of emotions with no idea what I was even feeling.Angry. Sad. Relieved. All of the above. I was a walking emotional roller coaster, spiraling without a safety bar.Axel had exposed our intimacy to Shahar—just like that. No warning, no consideration, nothing. And yet, this same Axel had stood up for me, had my back, and sent Nina away without a second thought. It was distracting. I should have been focused on how unbelievably annoyed I was at him. I needed to get it together.Calm down, Eve. Pacing around the room like a caged animal isn't going to change anything.I shot him a glare. "Oh, so now you're a therapist? Mind telling me how I should feel—especially since you are the cause of all this?"Axel grinned, thoroughly amused. "Me?" He placed a hand on his chest in mock innocence. "I'm innocent. I just think you might get dizzy and make an anger track in my carpet."I narrowed my eyes. "This isn't funny.""It isn’t," he a
AxelNina could not take a hint. I didn’t want to talk to her. I didn’t want to sit beside her. I didn’t even want to be near her. But that didn’t stop her from shoving herself into my space like an overeager puppy, pretending not to notice how stiff my posture was or how my answers had been reduced to noncommittal grunts.My annoyance grew with every word she spewed. I wished she would just go away.It wasn’t just that I wasn’t interested—I had gone out of my way to introduce her to several nobles, making it painfully obvious that I was trying to push her toward someone else. But she played dumb, batting her lashes and pretending the entire room couldn’t see exactly what I was trying to do.I couldn’t wait for the night to be over.Eve was still furious with me, and I had no doubt she planned to bear this grudge forever. That pleased Shahar—he looked downright smug every time our eyes met. And a small, irritated part of me wondered if it was worth it in the end.But knowing Shahar ha
EveMy heart dropped into my stomach the moment I saw Shahar. He had caught Axel and me kissing.I had never felt such dread in my life. I had seen Shahar angry before, but this was different—he looked pierced, betrayed in a way that sent me running behind Axel like a coward.I broke into a sweat, silently begging the Moon Goddess that he wouldn’t cause a scene. People were moving back and forth through the hallway, and the last thing I needed was for the entire kingdom to witness its king tangled in a scandal with his best friend’s fiancée. If Shahar lost control, this could turn into a disgraceful mess, one that no amount of damage control could fix.Shahar’s voice was low but filled with restrained fury. "What the hell is this?"He wasn’t looking at me—his burning gaze was fixed on Axel, demanding an answer, demanding an explanation that would make this not what it seemed.Axel didn’t speak.His silence only made it worse. Shahar took a step closer, his fists clenched, his entire f
EveI was in heat for the next three days. It was messy. The worst kind. The kind that had me clawing at Axel like some insatiable animal, unable to get enough. I climbed him every chance I got. He didn’t complain, of course. He enjoyed it—loved it even. He loved that, for once, I was the one reaching for him, dragging him into me, kissing him first, begging to be ravished, instead of the other way around.It felt like a live wire was buzzing in my body, demanding more. I couldn’t stop. We did it everywhere—the garden at night, his study, the kitchen storage, the garage, his car, but mostly in my room, night after night, until I was sore, but still needing more.It had never been like this with Lance. Not even when we were good. Not even in the first year of our marriage when we were trying. The difference was so painfully obvious that I almost felt stupid for ever believing I had loved Lance. With Axel, my body responded before my brain even had the chance to argue. With Lance,
Eve I stepped closer, my eyes locking with Axel's, with a silent challenge in my gaze. I knew the effect I had on him. His breath hitched, and his body tensed in anticipation. With a deliberate move, I pressed my lips to his, claiming his mouth with a boldness that left him momentarily stunned. But I wasn't one to be denied; tonight, I wanted to take the reins.“Fuck me,” I whispered in his ear.I heard a delighted chuckle seconds before our lips met. His mouth softened, yielding to my command. I could feel the raw desire that coursed through him. His body was a live wire, buzzing with pent-up energy, and at its center, a throbbing hardness that pressed insistently against my belly.My hand slid down, seeking out the source of his passion. I found him hot and rigid, the blunt head of his erection straining against his pants. “I'm all yours,” his breath caressed my neck as he spoke, causing a trickle of wetness to slide between my legs. He was ready.He led the kiss, pulling away fr
I lay across my deathbed in the intensive care unit of the pack hospital, waiting for death to come. My body was a prison of pain, each breath dragging me closer to the end.“Fight for us, Eve,” my wolf, Maya’s panicked voice sliced through my consciousness. “You can't give up now.”My cracked lips parted, but no words came out. Maya scratched against me, making me wince. My eyes fluttered closed, and a single tear slid down my temple, disappearing into my matted hair.Beside me was a manila envelope containing all the certificates of my assets: lands, investments, bank details, and everything to be transferred to my husband, Lance, and shared equally with my best friend and doctor, Crystal.Faint voices grew louder outside the door, approaching the room.“Let’s hope she’s dead,” Lance’s voice drifted through the door. “Once this ends, we’ll finally have what we deserve.”My stomach twisted, but I couldn’t make out the rest of the conversation. A sharp giggle pierced the air, too chee...
