Kaile's point of view

The healer's face was grim as she examined Eve. She muttered to herself, her hands moving quickly and surely as she worked.

"What did they give her?" the healer asked, her voice sharp with concern.

"I don't know," I admitted, feeling a surge of frustration. "I found her like this at Ezra's castle. I think he must have given her something."

The healer's eyes narrowed. "I'll need to run some tests," she said. "But I think I can help her."

I nodded, feeling a wave of relief wash over me. The healer was the best in the kingdom—if anyone could help Eve, it was her.

The healer quickly got to work, mixing up a concoction of herbs and potions. She fed it to Eve, who swallowed it down without resistance.

As we waited for the medicine to take effect, I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. What had Ezra been thinking, giving Eve some kind of drug? And what did he plan to do with her?

I gritted my teeth, feeling a surge of anger. I was going to find out what Ezra had p

    Her POVThe light was so bright, I couldn't help but turn away from it, shying away into the darkness that already surrounded me.'No... the light', a voice said suddenly out of the void.I turned around but couldn't see anything.'Come to me', the voice said again.'Come into the light'I walked hesitantly towards the light and the closer I got the brighter it became. I wanted to stop but couldn't as I continued to walk on as if propelled forward by some unseen force around me, until soon the light enveloped me and there was nothing at all.The first thing I felt was the cold. It was so cold, I missed the warmth of the light. I gingerly opened my eyes, feeling drowsy. I blinked a few times in order to get used to the darkness around me. When I felt more oriented, I tried to sit up but the pain in my head went off like a siren, reverberating through my brain, forcing me to lie down again. I laid down for a few minutes before slowly attempting to sit up again. This time the pain was be

    Kaile's POVI stared at the strange woman who was also staring back."What do you mean you don't know?", I asked, a hint of disbelief in my tone."I don't remember", she answered.I blinked. Was she lying? But it didn't look like she was lying. I looked at the doctor."Could this be because of the attack?", I asked him."It's possible maybe she's concussed", he answered as he moved closer to inspect her."Open your eyes please", he told her and she did. He flashed a light in her eyes and examined her."Doesn't seem to be concussed", he said after a few minutes."I'm fine", she mumbled, causing all of us to turn our attention to her."I just can't remember", she muttered softly, her eyes down as she fidgeted with the sheets.Seeing her like that caused my heart to ache."Thank you doctor", I said and the doctor bowed before leaving the room.I nodded at the maid signaling her to leave as well and she bowed before leaving.With the two of us left alone in the room, I could properly take

    Her POVI stared at my reflection in the mirror. It had been three days since Kaile saved me and brought me back here. My ankle had healed and I had the last doctor's appointment just this morning. Over these three days I had been trying my best to remember something but it always ended the same way, a crippling headache. I couldn't get past the dark void and it was frustrating. There was a knock on the door and I turned around excitedly."How are you feeling?", Macy asked as she popped her head in.I couldn't help the slight feeling of disappointment I felt when I saw it was her. Macy was wonderful, she was the maid who had come to see me when I first woke up. She had later told me her name and she was the sweetest and warmest person I'd met so far but I was hoping it was Kaile. Over the past three days I was here, Kaile had never failed to visit me even if it was brief visits late in the evening. He was so kind and he seemed genuinely concerned for me."I feel fine", I answered Macy

    Kaile's POV"Thank you, Madam Cassandra, you can leave", I dismissed her after I had given her my instructions about Eve.She bowed and left. After she left, I let myself sink into my thoughts. The image of Eve smiling as she called her name flashed in my mind and I couldn't stop myself from smiling as well. Eve, the name really did suit her, the people I knew with that name had the most beautiful smiles."Kaile", Reuben called, pulling me out of my thoughts.I hadn't realized when he came into the room."What is it?", I asked."We've found the rogues we think you had a run in with", he said."That's good, well have we questioned them yet?", I asked."They're dead", he said in a matter of fact tone."Dead?", I questioned."Yes", he answered affirmatively."Where did you find them?", I asked."A little way past the inner boundary pass, almost in Ravenwood territory", he said and I furrowed my brows."Ravenwood territory? Well how did they die? Could you tell?", I asked."It looks like

    Ezra's POV"Two attacks within the space of three days! This is getting out of hand!", Lincoln, one of the elder council members, barked.I sighed and looked at Romeo, my second in command, ignoring Lincoln's outburst of anger."The attack was swift, my Alpha", Romeo relayed, catching my glance."We had a small group of soldiers around the area and they were dispatched there immediately we heard news of the attack but by the time they got there, the rogues were nowhere to be found", he continued.I clenched my fists."Casualties?", I asked."There were no casualties but the village was thoroughly pillaged, everything had been catered away, some houses were set on fire but the boys were able to quickly put them out", he answered.I groaned as I mulled over his report."My alpha, this is indeed getting out of hand. How did things escalate to this point? The rogues are getting more and more audacious", another council member said."And what is the army doing to checkmate their actions? N

    Eve's povI turned from one side of the bed, to the other, restlessly. Dripping sweat covered my face. I opened my eyes sharply sitting upright on the bed. It was a dream! My heart was thumping furiously against my chest. I moved my hands to my face dabbing it relentlessly. I picked my pillow to my chest squeezing it to myself. Fear crept into my heart slowly. This was the first time I was having that dream and it really was scary. I stood up sluggishly pulling up the blinds. The reflection of the sun hit me in the face reminding me that I woke up late. With a groan, I left for the bathroom to freshen up. Still in the bathroom, I heard the creaking sound of the door to my room. Someone was coming in? Who was that? I hurriedly washed away the soap on my face trying to get my towel hanged by the door. The dream! I was reminded. With fear, I tied my towel round my body picking up the mop stick near me. I wasn't going to give in. I must confront whoever the intruder might be. As I stood ne

    Kaile's povI left Eve's room to mine worry-stricken. I felt anger boil from within me, does she have to pass through all this? My mind flashed back to the man who wanted to have something with her. I reversed my step to my seat in the main hall. Not disappointed, I met him on his knees with his hands tied behind him. I smirked dangerously as I walked towards him. I am going to get my revenge on touching Eve. Eve? Am I been possessive? Anyhow it looks like, I'm not. I took my sit slowly my eyes on the man all through. As if the man senses the boiling anger from me, he bowed his head in regret. It is too late.“Young man, look at me.” I commanded with disgust. He was still battling with himself.“I won't repeat myself.” I warned. This time he met my eyes but not for long. If looks could kill, he probably might have been dead.“Are you not one of the servant I put in charge to guide her door?” His face looks familiar. Is he one of them?

    Ezra's povI feel relieved as I settle down to my meal. The invitation I sent to Kaile was something very intentional. I know he isn't mated yet and he might not even be thinking about it anytime soon. It was also a strategy to show off my beautiful mate even though I'm not interested in her. We are both going to be mated soon but I still feel drawn to my first love. She appears in my dream once in a while so her memory still remains fresh. I will have prefer to remain single but the pack boards won't allow that. I was drawn from my thoughts by a hand which trailed my neck down to my face. Looking up, all to see it is Lydia. A silent sigh escaped my lips as I force a smile towards her.“Good morning, Alpha.”“Morning.” I reply her coldly.“When did you arrive at the pack? I heard that you followed your brother somewhere.” I enquire.“Yes, I did. I arrived this morning.”“Where did you go to if I my ask?” I can see hesitation as I ask her the question. Why is she hesitating? Is she hidi

    Kalie's point of view I quickly carried Eve out of the castle and to my car, parked nearby. I opened the door and gently placed her in the passenger seat.As I buckled her in, Eve suddenly started to squirm and struggle, her hands grasping at her dress. "I'm so hot," she whispered, her voice husky and desperate. "I need to get out of this."Before I could stop her, Eve started to remove her dress, pulling it down over her shoulders and exposing her bare skin. I felt a surge of desire mixed with concern, and I quickly reached out to cover her."Eve, stop," I said firmly, trying to keep my eyes off her bare skin. "You can't just...we need to get you home."But Eve just kept repeating, "I'm so hot," over and over, her eyes glassy and unfocused. I knew I had to get her out of there, and fast, before things got any worse. I quickly got into the driver's seat and started the engine, peeling out of the castle grounds as fast as I could.As I drove, Eve continued to squirm and struggle in the

    Kaile's point of view I glared at Lydia, my fingers tightening around her neck. "Tell me," I growled, my voice low and menacing.Lydia's eyes bulged, and she struggled to breathe. I could see the fear in her eyes, and I knew I had her right where I wanted her.Just when I thought she was going to pass out, Lydia's lips parted, and she whispered, "E-Ezra's room... She's with him..."My grip on her neck tightened, and for a moment, I thought I was going to snap. But then I released her, and she fell to the floor, gasping for air.I turned and stormed out of the kitchen, my anger and jealousy fueling my every step. I was going to confront Ezra, and I was going to make sure he knew to stay away from Eve.As I approached Ezra's room, I slowed down, my ears straining to hear any sound coming from inside. But there was nothing. No laughter, no talking, no sound of any kind.I stood there for a moment, my heart pounding in my chest. What were they doing in there? Were they...?I pushed the th

    Kaile's point of view I paced back and forth in my room, my mind racing with thoughts of Eve. Why did she have to go to Ezra's kingdom? I knew Ezra's reputation - he was charming, persuasive, and always got what he wanted. And what he wanted was often the one thing I couldn't bear to lose: Eve.I stopped pacing and stood in front of the window, staring out at the darkening sky. What if Ezra asked Eve out again? What if she said yes this time? The thought sent a pang of fear through my chest.I tried to push the thoughts away, telling myself I was being irrational. Eve had chosen me, after all. She had rejected Ezra's offer and come back to me. But the doubt lingered, refusing to be silenced.I thought back to the way Ezra had looked at Eve, the way he had smiled at her. It was a smile that said, "I'm going to get what I want, no matter what." And what he wanted was Eve.I felt a surge of anger and protectiveness. I couldn't let Ezra hurt Eve again. I had to make sure she was safe, th

    Ezra's point of view I closed the door behind us, and Eve sat down on my bed, looking around my room with curiosity. I sat down beside her, feeling a sense of comfort with her presence."So, what's been going on?" I asked her, trying to sound casual.Eve turned to me, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "I had the craziest dream last night," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.I raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "What happened in the dream?" I asked, leaning in closer to her.Eve's face scrunched up in concentration. "I dreamt that we were... together," she said, her cheeks flushing pink.My heart skipped a beat at her words. I had been having similar dreams, dreams that felt so real, so vivid. Dreams that made me wonder if there was something more between us."I've been having dreams like that too," I admitted, my voice low and husky.Eve's eyes widened in surprise, and she leaned in closer to me. "Really?" she whispered, her breath tickling my ear.I nodded, feeling a sense of

    Lydia's point of view As I stood there, seething with anger and hurt, I couldn't help but notice the way Ezra's eyes seemed to bore into mine. It was as if he could see right through me, to the depths of my soul. I felt exposed, vulnerable, and it only added to my anger.Just as I was about to try and push Ezra away again, I heard a faint noise coming from the doorway. I turned to see Eve standing there, a look of surprise on her face.But as our eyes met, I could have sworn I saw a flicker of guilt in her expression. It was as if she knew exactly what was going on and was enjoying every minute of it.My anger boiled over, and I struggled against Ezra's grip. "Let me go," I spat, trying to keep my voice down.But Ezra just held me tighter, his eyes never leaving mine. "Not until you tell me what's going on, Lydia," he growled.I glared at Eve, who was still standing in the doorway, a smug look on her face. "You know exactly what's going on, Ezra," I said, my voice venomous. "You're j

    Eve's point of view I walked through the castle, my mind preoccupied with the recurring dreams that had been plaguing me. I was tired of feeling like I was stuck in a never-ending cycle of uncertainty. I needed answers, and I knew that the only way to get them was to go to Ezra's kingdom.I made my way to Kaie's chambers, hoping to catch him alone. I knocked on the door, and when he bid me enter, I took a deep breath and stepped inside."Kaile, I need to talk to you about something," I said, getting straight to the point.Kaile looked up from the papers he was studying, a hint of annoyance in his eyes. "What is it, Eve?" he asked gruffly.I took another deep breath before launching into my request. "I want to go to Ezra's kingdom," I said, my voice firm. "I need to find out what's going on, why I'm having these dreams."Kaile's expression turned from annoyance to outright frustration. "Eve, we've been over this," he said, his voice rising. "It's not safe for you to go to Ezra's kingd

    Lydia's point of view I couldn't help but feel a pang of pain as I glanced at Ezra across the dinner table. He hadn't even looked at me once, his eyes fixed on his plate as if the food was the most fascinating thing he'd ever seen.I tried to brush it off, telling myself that he was just tired or preoccupied. But deep down, I knew that it was more than that. He was pulling away from me, and I didn't know how to stop it.As dinner came to a close, I reached out and touched Ezra's arm, trying to get his attention. "Ezra, can I talk to you for a minute?" I asked, trying to keep my voice light.But Ezra just snatched his arm away and stood up, his eyes flashing with annoyance. "I'm tired, Lyra," he muttered, before turning and walking away.I felt a stinging sensation in my eyes as I watched him go. I tried to hold back the tears, but they pricked at the corners of my eyes, threatening to spill over.I got up from the table, my heart racing with anxiety. I felt like I was losing Ezra, li

    Kaile's point of view I was walking down the hallway when I heard a faint whimpering sound coming from Eve's room. My heart skipped a beat as I quickened my pace, concern etched on my face.I pushed open the door to Eve's room, and my eyes adjusted to the dim light. Eve was sitting up in bed, her eyes wide with fear. Her face was pale, and her chest was rising and falling rapidly as she breathed."Eve, what's wrong?" I asked softly, rushing to her side. I sat down on the bed beside her, taking her hand in mine.Eve looked up at me, her eyes still wild with fear. "I had a dream," she whispered, her voice trembling.I squeezed her hand gently, trying to comfort her. "What happened in the dream?" I asked softly, my eyes locked on hers.Eve took a deep breath, her eyes dropping to the bed. "I was in the garden with Ezra," she whispered. "We were holding hands. And then... and then someone came and killed me."I felt a chill run down my spine as Eve's words hung in the air. I could see th
