Hazel’s pov

I sat across Evelyn, gazing at my half eaten breakfast, trying to make sense of everything that happened. She was making an effort alright, but I couldn’t help thinking that there’s something more to this.

“Hazel?” her voice brought me back from my thoughts.

“Yes?” I said with a confused look on my face.

“The food park. Would you want to go with me?”

I blinked, not knowing how to reply. “A food park?”

She beamed at me. “Yeah! It’s a lot of fun and the food there is amazing too. We can try different types of cuisines, maybe do a little bit of exploring while we are at it too. It’ll be good to…bond.”

Bond? Right. That word, I wondered if she knew what it meant.

To be honest everything within me wanted to tell her to get lost but I knew it would be rude of me to say that to someone who was trying to be close to me. She was trying to be nice and here I was thinking of how to be mean. I wanted to say no, that I couldn’t go, but I knew that I couldn’t do it.

There was no excuse

    Evelyn’s povIt was late, the moonlight barely shining on the path as I headed to find Leif in the dark shadows near the edge of the pack lands. He was leaned against a tree, his arms crossed and his eyes sharp when he looked up at me. He must have sensed my seriousness because he pushed off from the tree to stand tall.“I need you to do something for me,” I told him.He smirked. “What now, Evelyn? Another one of your schemes?”I rolled my eyes. “Don’t act so self-righteous. You’re here, aren’t you? You know what I always call you for so don’t act so scared now. Listen, tomorrow Hazel and I are going shopping, and I want you to set up an attack.”“An attack?” He arched an eyebrow.“Yes, an attack!” I bit out. “Get some of your men—masked, obviously—and do it. Make it look real. I want her scared as hell, but don’t hurt anyone on our side. I’ll take care of the rest.”Leif tilted his head to the side, narrowing his eyes as he studied me. “And what’s your endgame this time?”I took a st

    Evelyn’s povThat morning, I felt ready for what was to come that day. I got up and put on something nice but not over the top, it had to be responsible looking and it was what I hoped Orion would think if he saw my outfit. In the dining hall, Hazel was already there eating and already dressed up.“Good morning” I said with a smile before sitting across from her.She looked up, a little surprised. “Good morning, Evelyn.” Her voice was soft, hesitant.I poured myself some tea and picked up a slice of toast. “So, are you excited for our shopping trip today?”Hazel gave a small smile and nodded. “Yeah, I guess. I haven’t really gone shopping like this in a while.”I chuckled lightly. “You should not be bothered about a lot of things. I’ll handle the cost. You should just give on what you need. Clothing, cute shoes and maybe even accessories.”She laughed a little, and I noticed she was starting to slowly let her guard down with me. “I just really need some casual clothes… or a few dresse

    Evelyn’s povA soft knock on the door made me jump, and my maid stuck her head in with a worried look on her face. “My lady,” she hissed, slipping into the room and closing the door behind her.I pushed myself up, wincing as I did so. “What is it?”She hesitated before speaking. “Everything is going according to plan… but the Alpha seems suspicious.”I sighed and rubbed my temples. “I know. He’s not a fool.”She nodded and stepped closer. “What’s the next step?”I took a moment to think, then a slow smile spread across my face. “Now we play the long game. I’ll make it look like I’m walking away… giving Hazel time to heal. But I’ll be close enough to strike when the time is right.”My maid bowed. “Understood.”I tossed myself back against the pillows, squeezed my eyes so hard that a few tears spilled out. I would be an angel in Orion’s eyes—for now. Hazel had made it through another day, but I wasn’t finished with Hazel yet.Orion might have thought that he could keep me away, but he w

    ~Hazel~The moon goddess is a player.There is no other reason why she would put two people from different classes together and make them mates. I am so convinced that she enjoys the show that goes down here.She must love to have a lot of fun hurting werewolves’ feelings.It was the coming of age month when all the werewolves who hadn’t gotten their mates went to this huge party with the sole aim of finding their mates. My best friend, who is an omega by the way, found out that her mate was a beta from another pack, but he rejected her coldly, with the excuse of not being up to standard.Not him talking about standards with his duck face.This is the reason I’ve prayed fervently for the past three weeks that my mate would be an omega, just like me, and he would love me forever. That was the only way that I could leave this hellhole that had been created for me by my step-parents.I was still musing when I felt a kick to my shin. I cried out in pain, stumbling over the bucket of water

    ~Hazel~I tried not to think about what happened at the alpha’s pack house when I got home that evening. But no matter how much I tried, I couldn’t get it off my mind.Was it because I was supposed to find my mate tonight and I feel like I might have cheated on him with the alpha?I glanced at the array of old dresses that I’d combed out of my tiny wardrobe. Tonight was the mating and coming-of-age party, and I needed to look good enough for my future mate.After doing enny mini moe, I picked a green dress that matched the color of my eyes. It was an old one that I’d gotten through charity, but it was better than nothing at all.I put it on and looked in the mirror. Even the dress couldn’t take out the stamp of omega in my body. I still looked every bit of it.“No other man is permitted to touch you”His command kept haunting me.I mean, I didn’t care that minutes after he had shoved his tongue down my throat, made me feel his erection, and left me all confused with his command, I hear

    ~Hazel~ I ran until I couldn’t feel my legs anymore. That should have been enough to take away the agony that I felt, but it wasn’t. My chest felt constricted, and now, the pain was more blinding.I couldn’t tell if this was more painful because my fated mate didn’t totally reject me before marking another girl as his luna, or if it was just because my fated mate might be under the sheets with someone else.Ryder.How much I hate him. I hate him for making me this pathetic. I hated him for humiliating me in this manner, and I hate him even more for leading me on and then dumping me in the gutter after he was done…“Why did you have to touch me in those breathtaking ways? Why did you have to take my breath away in the nicest way possible if you had no intentions of bringing me back to life?” I cried to no one in particular.I took a deep, shaky breath and straightened my spine. If the moon goddess thought that her game to destroy me was going to work, then she had something else coming

    ~Hazel~“I need to question her privately. Please excuse us”The werewolves in attendance, including Freya and my step-parents, filed out of the interrogation room, but not after giving me disgusted looks. Once the door had shot behind them, Ryder stalked towards me, his anger evident.“I ordered you not to let another man touch you. How dare you defy my orders?”“You might be the alpha, but you do not own my body. I can do whatever I want with my body! My body, my choice!”“Hazel!” he growled, his grip tightening on my arm.“You do not want me as a mate, so why do I need to obey that sort of command? Another man found me attractive and wanted me. He made love to me and I liked it”I could see the veins shooting out on his forehead. His eyes were almost crazed, and his grip on my arm was becoming unbearable. I tried to wiggle out, but he held me even tighter, and then pulled me to his body.His breath was heavy and labored as he grabbed my face. He brought his face closer to mine, his

    ~Hazel~I awoke to the van’s bumpy ride, and an uncomfortable feeling on my back. When I tried to move, I felt a pounding in my head and some burning on my wrists.The van stopped short and before I could understand what was happening something grabbed at me with clawed fingers.The wolves that had thrown me in this van to begin with were now pulling me out, their laughs piercing my ears and grating against my very last nerve as I was blinded by the white hot lights shining from the van's high beams.“Goodie, you’re up,” one of them jeered into my face, flashing a set of serrated sharp teeth beneath the dim glow trickling from the headlights. His fingers sank deeper into the skin of my upper arm when he shot his arm directly through mine to drag me forward. “Hope you didn’t get too comfortable back there Sleeping Beauty because nighty-night time is gonna be a thing of the past once we show you where you’re headed.”Panic bubbled in my chest, but I forced myself to keep calm. “Pleas

    Evelyn’s povThe moment I entered my room, I summoned my maid. She came quickly and made a little bow. “My lady?” she said, as she always addressed me.“Well, I want you to get something nice for Hazel this morning, chicken and peas, or whatever else she likes best.”I could feel the tension rise between us as the maid had not expected that from me.Her eyebrows rose, but she didn't say anything. "Yes, my lady," she said eventually. "And do you want me to prepare it with... the poisons or with anything else?"I narrowed my eyes at her. "No," I told her, just as firmly as before. "Not yet. Eventually, yes, but for now I need her to think I'm someone who cares about what happens to her... someone she can trust. I’m trying to lure her in so she can be on my side and not be against me. That way maybe we can be friends and I can show her that I’m not so bad.”The maid hesitated in a bow for a moment before she nodded. “I’ll see to it at once.”“See that you do.” I waved her away and watche

    Hazel’s povI woke up that morning feeling intense pain in my stomach. If that was the only problem I was having then I wouldn’t complain, but to top it off, my head felt like it would explode from the thumping going on in it. I suddenly got nausea and felt like throwing up but held it back as I laid in bed.I winced in pain and put a hand over my stomach, willing whatever it was causing this havoc to subside.There I was, just closing my eyes to try and get the pain away as my head throbbed mercilessly when a knock came at the door. I groaned louder. I was not in the mood for visitors. Grunting, I pulled myself up from the bed and trudged over to open it, every step causing my headache to increase tenfold.A frown instantly formed on my face at what stood before me – Evelyn, all perfect smiles and sugary sweet expressions.The rage that filled me up that morning was nothing to write home about. I just wanted her off my sight and I would do anything to have her gone. “What do you wan

    Evelyn’s povI couldn’t move after hearing that. I was frozen in my stead. My heart pounded in my chest in a furious manner as I held onto my stead and prayed for the best.She was pregnant? With Orion’s child? My head spun and each gasp became harder than the last as I sucked for air that wasn’t there.Before I knew what happened, I turned around and was tearing down the hall as I ran back to my room. “This can’t be happening,” I whispered to myself, feeling like my heart was about to beat right out of my chest. “No one is taking Orion from me—not her, not her child.” I paced across the room, my mind working at a mile a minute. This wasn’t a threat; this was an invasion. If Hazel thought she could come waltzing into my pack and take Orion was her man, she had another thing coming.My wolf started to bring up ideas.“Maybe we should shove her down a bridge or something. I don’t like to share.”But I growled. “You don’t need to tell me twice. I want her gone and gone for good. I hate

    Evelyn’s povOrion was standing near the entrance, deep in conversation with one of the guards when I arrived back at the packhouse. His powerful aura dominated the space, but as soon as he noticed me, his eyes locked onto mine. I didn’t look away. Instead, I held his gaze until he started walking toward me with that same commanding stride that made everyone step aside.I sighed softly, bracing myself. This was going to be tricky.“Thanks for finally showing up,” he said with a frown. “What were you really thinking?”“My alpha, I have no idea what you’re talking about,” I said with an innocence as he growled and got close to me.“What do you mean by that?” He growled. “You took her to a club. You took hazel to a club without even consulting me. Why would you do such a thing?”I bowed my head, letting a subtle tremble creep into my voice. “Alpha, I’m so sorry. I wasn’t thinking. I really am. Please forgive me. I don’t know it would be bad. I only wanted to bond with her in some way. Th

    Evelyn’s povI swirled the drink in my glass, the golden liquid catching the muted light of the room. The music vibrated through my feet, but my thoughts roamed elsewhere. Where had Hazel wandered off to? Not that I cared—I pushed her from my mind and took another sip. She can handle herself.“Where’s your friend?” The bartender asked me as I shrugged.“How the hell should I know?” I asked as I took a sip of my drink. “She can get lost for all I care. This is a party. Maybe she’s somewhere else failing someone.”I was about to bring the glass back up when a figure slipped onto the stool beside me. My gaze flickered up, and for a split second, I winced before painting on a smile. It was Kael.His muscular shape had me turned on temporarily and if he wasn’t the beta I would have gone for him. But I wanted to have a partner who would be second to none and would be strong enough to make me higher than everyone in the pack.Being with the beta wouldn’t give me the same confidence as being
