Evelyn's pov Kian had more or less reassured me that the disease was not going to spread but his prediction turned out to be completely wrong because in less than 2 weeks it appeared that we were in a state of emergency and people could not move around freely as they used to because the disease had spread out so much in a way that nobody had expected. Nobody knew how it came into the pack, nobody could even trace how it came about at all. It just appeared one day and started afflicting people, anybody that was infected was going to immediately develop green nauseous spots, and they would suffer high temperatures and difficulty in breathing as well, many of the hospitals were completely overrun with them and it was just getting worse everyday. I thought that Kian and I had become distant but turns out I was actually still enjoying a lot of his attention. I noticed that he was even avoiding me more than he had been doing before with the past and of course, on the few occasions that I
Evelyn’s povIt was not an easy argument and I knew that he was not going to agree with me easily from the start, which was why I pressed on with it. When I saw that he kept resisting I decided to pull out my triumph card.“If you don't agree with me on this then there's no need for me to be here. I didn't get married to you and come all the way down here just so that I can be a trophy wife, so if you're not going to allow me to do anything, I might as well as go back to my father,”There was a deep silence between the two of us that stretched out for a long period of time sd if it was never going to end before he finally found his voice again in the conversation. “You are not leaving,” he said but even as he spoke, he sounded unsure of himself and that was exactly what I wanted because I was 100% serious with everything I told him.I showed him that I was definitely leaving if he was not going to change his mind about anything. I had already packed my bags and all I needed to hear f
Kian's pov “She's just so stubborn,” I complained to my beta as he was downing his own glass of wine between the two of us. He dropped it and then after staring profoundly at the roof, dropped his eyes to the glass again to take another serving for himself. “Well, you already knew that when you married her and you brought her here, obviously you can't change her so it's either you accept her the way she is or you replace her with somebody else it's that simple really…”The idea of replacing Evelyn was leaving a very bitter taste in my mouth and that was what everybody was suggesting, but nowadays, I could not really place my feelings about her. Before it had been completely unquestionable, she was the only woman I saw that could be my Luna, however, I was beginning to wonder if I had trusted her into a position that was not meant for her in the first place.“So what do you think of her aa luna?” I asked him as he was done filling up his glass. In response, he just shrugged passivel
Evelyn's pov “There are going to be some conditions, I hope you can understand that all of this is for your safety and it won't stop you from doing what you want to do…”I know that my husband was not just going to hand me what I wanted on a silver platter just like that and the next day he proved me right when he came into our bedroom with a wig and some personal protective gear as well as some other things as well along with a lot of instructions. “First of all, I think we can both agree that it will be more sensible if you get some training first. As a volunteer, you will not be taken without some basic medical knowledge,”I listened to him attentively. It sounded reasonable enough. Of course, I had to know basic surface knowledge in order to be anything other than a burden to other people.“What's the second?” I asked curiously and he took his time before he finally responded to this question holding out the wig.“You will have to hide your identity,” he added intensely and watc
Kian's pov “Three more…we lost three more just this morning,” the head doc told me, I looked at him across his desk. He looked like he had aged an extra decade since the last time I saw him, the lines on his face appeared like they would feel leathery to touch.He was exhausted, as was everyone else as well. The nurses strapped in their protective gear coming out of the quarantine zones also looked like zombies.During this pandemic, I had to hire more staff for the hospitals. Of course, I could afford it for my people. The only problem for me was just that this sickness…such a thing was not what I was used to dealing with.I was known as an Alpha of war, and having a straightforward foe that I could attack directly was mostly easy for me, I would gather my men and then strategize then strike but this was different…so different that it was a pain indeed.What hurt so much was watching my people being buried every day, the head doctor told me that if things continued to escalate we m
Evelyn's pov I couldn't stop the bitter tears as they were rushing down my cheek, this was so exhausting…O was doing my best to understand him.After he yelled at me I decided to go to the garden in the mansion, I had not really been here before because my marriage was such a rollercoaster. I leaned back on the bench, I was trying to take him out of my mind, the cold look he gave me…the way that he yelled, I just couldn't wrap my head around it.He had begged me so desperately to come with him, I thought swinging my legs back and forward, then after all that begging he just started treating me like I was an enemy.I suddenly and abruptly stopped swinging my legs from side to side because now it was stuck in my head…it was only a suspicion so I wasn't as sure as I wanted to be.Was he using me as his revenge? Was it possible that truly his life had been so dedicated to ending my father's that he wasn't even satisfied with that, maybe he also wanted to make sure that I suffered too…it
Kian pov My wife and I were slowly becoming strangers in our own house, she wasn't making much of an effort to see me anymore and even though I was checking up on her through the servants, I wasn't personally going to meet her. We didn't even sleep on the same bed anymore and I made sleeping arrangements for myself in my office. The first time my second in command came in and saw them he didn't say anything but the longish way he stared at them and how his eyes would immediately dart to them at any given opportunity just made me fed up and I had to just explain why I had sleeping arrangements in my office.“I'm working out some things in my marriage right now,” I said as I placed more documents on my desk and watched for his reaction. It was the same face he still carried in a moment ago as if the information I had given him made little to no difference when all of them were all hankering for my relationship to end.“Well, fight all the time I'm sure that you guys will settle whatev
Evelyn's pov “Yes, I finally figured it out!” I said with joy as I lifted my head from my desk and rocked back on my chair standing up in the same movement and lifting a small piece of paper with a set list scribbled down. It had been excavated from a mountain pile of some littered around.I was excited to show it to my husband because he was going to be excited as well and I was elated myself because of that, so I went to look for him and one of the guards.He beautifully pointed me over to my husband who at that point was standing at the balcony with his second in command and both of them had a serious aura between them, my instinct told me to stop and think, so I did and then I heard my name gently coming out of my husband's mouth but despite the gentleness there was this coldness to it. My heart ached, I had been bouncing here with so much excitement that he would probably be excited to see me. I clung to the piece of paper in my hand.If I showed him this piece of paper and I to
