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
Evelyn's pov Kian had promised me that he would protect me from the dangers of the outside world, that was the physical dangers. But this was something beyond what our eyes could see and what we could touch. Even as I was in this gigantic Mansion surrounded by guards, the fact that this person was desperately after my life, so I decided that instead of sitting like a waiting dog I was going to try and find this person. “Do you have any plans for this evening?” My husband asked me and I smiled at him as cordially as I could, denying anything of the sort, but why I could lie with my lips, I could not hide the troubled look on my face and he quickly picked up on it as he usually did with everything about me. He usually read me like a book and so whenever he never pointed out something being wrong when it was, I knew that it was because he didn't want to acknowledge it. “Evelyn, I don't want you to worry at all. Trust me, I have every qualified person working around the clock to make
Evelyn's Pov I couldn't believe it when we stepped into the club, for me it was like a dream come true after several days of living like a caged bird inside of the mansion. It was as comfortable as it could be with servants attending to me and everything being placed on my lap at a single wave of my hand but I also wanted to live. I didn't want to just be pushed around like a doll. I was so happy that my husband understood this, we had left the mansion through a back secret exit, making sure that only those who my husband trusted the most would know about our departure and the time of it. He said that he was suspecting that somebody inside the mansion might be giving in outsiders information which would explain how they knew I was leaving at that time.I was obviously troubled by that information but he told me that I shouldn't have to worry too much because it was just a suspicion in his mind and it was completely possible that at the end of it all, he was just being worried for not
Evelyn's Pov My eyes moved from one person to another, there were 5 men all of them looking rather rugged and it wasn't hard to smell the rogue on them. All of them were looking at me as if I was just a piece of flesh and I remember this feeling…it was a cold and dark and bitter place for my heart to go down to but I remembered it. I closed my eyes and told myself that I was not as weak as I had been back then because I had gotten stronger with training but I was still out of their number from the looks of things and I couldn't call for help before I would be able to grab my phone, someone would probably attack me. My heart was pounding with a realization that these people were probably watching me the entire night and it was only now that they decided that they were going to come and get me as I was no longer surrounded by guards and my husband was also not around. So this had been clearly planned but how did they know that I was even going to be at this club in the first place?
Evelyn's pov I had screamed so loudly by the time I opened my eyes, I saw that all the men were flying in the air as if they had been struck by powerful wind and all of them were only stopped when they hit the walls with great force that knocked them out.My eyes were glued to them as I was trying to wrap my head around what just happened. That was when I noticed that the nick on my elbow was not as small as I had initially taken it to be and I wrapped my fingers around it to stop the blood from flowing. Now it was in this awkward position that I had to somehow fish out my phone from my purse and call my husband, he immediately picked it up before the phone could ring for more than 2 seconds and he was pleading for me to come back to the dance floor. I quickly explained the situation to him and because of my injured elbow, I was not able to hold on to the phone for very long before it fell from my hand. I was worried that he did not understand everything. I said but turns out I had
