Evelyn's pov Kian didn't seem to believe that his people would have any problem trying to swallow down the information that they were going to be having a complete stranger that they had never met before introduced as their Luna, maybe it was so hard for me to imagine because I could not even think of doing that on my own side, just popping up with a complete stranger that nobody knew anything about and as these thoughts started to run through my mind I realized that was exactly what I did. My people had expected Alex or that time because we were dating and we looked like the perfect match in person and on paper because why wouldn't we be if nobody else knew that he was shamelessly sleeping with my stepmother, of course, we would look like a great match together but then his brother had come and completely swept me of my feet. At first, it was not exactly love. I could say I was attracted to him at that point and really I was desperate. But as Kian stretched out his hand for me ope
Kian's povJust like how I had hoped and expected, the party for my new mate was successful. Many people came in attendance flooding into the mansion and of course, I could see some faces filled with shock and surprise. For many years I had claimed that Hailey was going to be the next Luna.But fortunately for me, she had added to her own downfall, if it wasn't for the fact that she was so desperate to oppress others and put them below her feet many people might have actually decided to support her but the only advantage that she had was her father and I would deal with him at a later time when he eventually found out about what was happening, but for now I was ready to pass in the beauty of being with my mate. As I looked at her soaking up the new attention that she was getting has the Luna of the most powerful park in the world, I couldn't help to admit that it was a great look on her and initially, at the beginning of the party, she had been a bit awkward and strange but as things
Kian's pov Her eyes widened up like saucepans and her entire body was trembling like someone that had been thrown into a snowstorm without protection. The desperation was thickly and broadly written all over her face as if somebody had done it with a permanent marker. “Kian, what about my father?” She said, holding on to her last straw and desperately so as well, without any shred of shame to be found in her. SAe tried to approach me but I gave her another warning look with my eyes. I wouldn't hesitate to shove her away again if she was ready to break the boundaries that I had clearly set, so she remained close to the couch brushing her leg awkwardly against it. “What about your father?” I repeated, with my hands still crossed against each other but my emotions were not as unmoved as my face remained to be. While Hailey was a pest, I couldn't describe her father in the same way. In fact, it was the opposite. I actually respected the man a lot. “How do you think my father is going
Hailey's pov I returned home with frustration and anger pouring out of every single pore in my body like sweat. Kian had practically thrown me out on my face because he said I shouldn't be around when his precious wife returned. Imagine the humiliation. Saying that I was baffled and flabbergasted was an understatement of the century. Before now, Kean had been so charming to me to the point that he was almost patronizing and now it's a made-up set he was. As I matched into the dining room of my home I was given an outlet for my anger when the main served some of the food immediately I shrieked. “Why is there lobster on this table?” I demanded from the maid and she looked at me blinking her stupid eyes rapidly with surprise and shock. Yes, I had specifically demanded for seafood to be added to my lunch but now I wanted somebody to vent my anger on and what's a better victim than her? She tried to speak through a wobbly voice that I had specially requested for seafood and immediatel
Evelyn's pov “Are you sure that you're going to be okay? Trust me there's no pressure at all and I am not doubtful about your skills or anything but if you feel like you don't want to….”I allowed the hairbrush to swim across my hair again while staring at my vanity and the reflection of my husband sitting on the bedside as he was speaking to me as if I was about to go into a war when in reality it was nothing like that or at least it was far less threatening than a war. He was having a meeting with his special advisors and his Beta, and naturally as is Luna, I felt like I had to be there, this was partially because I wanted to contribute to the territory and also because I was beginning to feel more and more like a pampered doll rather than a person.Everyday I eat extravagant meals and not only that, the clothes that I wear are practically out of this world. It felt like every single one had been tailored just for me and while that was true and I was extremely flattered by it even
Evelyn's pov The first thing that was discussed was the adjustment to the budget of the pack, areas that needed to be cut back, and areas that needed to be fueled with more finances. I tried to pitch in but the moment I peeled my lips open there were about five other voices to immediately drown it out.I would awkwardly fall into silence, I didn't want to appear rude and inconsiderate by talking over other people even though that was exactly what they were doing to me.The discussion continued for a while and I just prompted myself to keep quiet for that part of the meeting and observe what was going on, besides I had just moved into this territory, so I wasn't socialized enough to know what aspects required finances or not. I thought that at some point I would be invited to speak on a matter since it would come off aggressively if I tried to overpower an entire room, however even my husband didn't look at me while he was discussing, he was just thoroughly pressed on the meeting whi
Evelyn's pov “Does the alpha know that you are leaving?” This was one of the first questions I was brushed with when I got to the garage and the chauffeur was making some regular checkups on the car.I was taken aback by his question, and before I could even get a chance to answer it, he was already shooting another one at me. “If he does, did he write you a note of permission?”At this point I wasn't sure if I was supposed to get angry or chuckle.“I don't believe that I'm a child that needs permission to write one just to go out. Besides, it's not like I'm running away. I'm just going to grab some lunch. Maybe you can even recommend some places for me…”The Chauffeur gave me a long hard look before he finally spoke again, stuffing his hands into his pockets.“So, from what you have been saying you don't have written permission? Or anything to prove that he has permitted you to leave?”After the disrespect that I got from that meeting, having a chauffeur looking down on me and even
Evelyn's pov Hearing his voice made me calm down a bit and so did the crowd. They immediately dispersed running. I was looking at them when the back seat door was flung open, he entered and began to check me like a doctor. When he was sure that I was fine, he turned sternly to the chauffeur and told him to drive back into the mansion again. He didn't say another word even as we returned back to the mansion and he grabbed my wrist, of course, not enough to hurt me but enough to jolt me a little bit.Both of us went to the living room and the large luxurious space was completely void of any servants including the guards who were immediately dismissed only to stand at the front door and to keep their ears to themselves. When we entered the sitting room, he let go of my wrist and I sheepishly found the couch to sit on. He went to sit on the opposite one and he was looking across to me with a look I clearly recognized as disappointment mixed up with a fair dose of annoyance.“Evelyn, wh
