Evelyn's POV The door suddenly busted open and I darted my gaze to it immediately, only to see my worst nightmare. “Wh..what are you doing here?’’ I shook my head, trying to hide my unstable state of being. “The last I checked, this is a toilet.’’ He responded, folding his arms on his chest as he relaxed his back on the closed door. “It's a ladies toilet, Alpha Devon.’’ I snapped curtly. “It is?’’ He creased a brow. “Well then, let's say I came for you!’’ He responded to himself and a proud smirk formed on his lips as he started taking slow steps to me. My eyes subconsciously traveled to his legs as they approached me. I swallowed hard as my heartbeat accelerated to space, hitting dangerously against my chest. “No…stop.’’ I eventually found my voice, moving backwards as he approached me. It took me just three steps for my back to hit the wall and my blood ran cold instantly, draining me completely as I watched his smirk grow deeper. ‘‘Wha..what…are you…’’ the rest of my words
Evelyn's POV I remained still on my spot with tears flowing down my cheeks freely as I watched the cars driving away.“Hey, c'mon! He is not leaving forever, not even for a whole week.’’ I heard and the not familiar Alpha came to view, he had a cheering broad smile on his face. I manage to fake a smile at him and wipe my tears, and he sends me a nod before walking away. “Let's leave this place, Luna.’’ I heard Beta Xandre’s voice behind me and I turned sharply and started to make my way out without a word to him. I feel mad, I am mad, but not at him. I'm mad at myself and even madder at Alpha Devon, but I'm also mad at Luther for no reason at all. I dashed into the pack hall immediately, using my eyes to scan for my children. I was so done with this party, I wanted to them to leave with me and we would return back to the castle. I walked around in search of them but I couldn't see even a trace of them, I decided to believe that Merit had taken them away. It had to be!I walked
Evelyn's POV ‘‘You are leaving with me, Lynn. Like it or not.’’ He stated seriously and dragged me to himself, pulling me around the car and almost dragged the door open when I managed to pull back.‘‘Are you really in the right state of mind right now, Alpha Devon?’’ I couldn't help but ask. It is uncalled for, the way he is behaving. “You won't want to be away from the kids.’’ He snorted.“You are going nowhere with my kids either!’’ I barked at him, yanking my hand from his grip but it didn't pull out.“Get your filthy hands off me.’’ I swore. The anger simmering within me in that moment was literally beyond measure, I didn't care less about the words I used on him. “How long do you plan to keep denying who the kid’s father actually is?’’ His question drilled deep in my head. For the first time since I started this whole thing, I actually got to try and think about where it was all going to end.If I happen to be lucky enough, would I keep the lie until the children grow old
Kyra’s POV I moved around on the bed, tossing and turning, it had even become too uncomfortable to keep laying on the bed. I pushed the bedding aside and shoved my feet to the floor, standing up on my feet. I walked to my dressing table and picked my phone. I stared at it for a while before dropping it back on the table and I made to leave but on a second thought, I turned and snatched the phone from the table. I dialed Luther's line before placing it on my ear. I have been able to build back a relationship with him, though it was nothing serious for now. He would not see me coming, he would never suspect that I was on to bring him back to myself. Though he still tried to play hard but could he possibly resist me?I listened to the line ring several times but he never picked. After the fourth trial with the same result, a brief sigh escaped my lips and I dropped the phone back on the table and began my way towards the exit door, something I should have done earlier. I walked o
Kyra’s POV“Excuse me Alpha, Alpha Luther is here.’’ He informed.My heart skipped a couple of beats and I darted my gaze back to Devon who had a totally unreadable look on his face. He released a dry grunt before turning back to the closet.I swallowed nothing down my throat before speaking.‘‘Didn't you hear him?’’“Luther is not a visitor, he should know his way around.’’ He spat at me without turning.I couldn't help but shake my head with a scoff before storming out of the room. I didn't bother sparing Enzo a single glance as I walked past him.He was no different from Devon, aside from the fact that Devon is cold and cruelly nonchalant.I almost stepped out of the chambers when it struck me that I don't know where Luther is.“Where is he?’’ I raised my voice, my eyes fixed on the door knob.“Where every other visitors wait at.’’ the stupid beta replied rudely, he didn't seem to like me and I also hated him in return.With a loud scoff I pulled the door open and stormed out of the
Kyra’s POV I dashed after Luther in fury, but not before shooting Enzo a deadly glare. I can swear that I heard him scoff but what do I care? He is the least of my problems at this moment.“Luther! Luther!!’’ I yelled out as I hastened my steps towards them.I can't tell that Alexandre is puzzled on whether to keep walking or to wait since Luther refused to miss a step and continues moving forward.I was forced to run and I caught up with them as they approached the shiny sky-blue Lamborghini. Luther made to pull the door open but I slammed it back shut in fury, not minding the blazing furnace look on his literally red face. “I've been calling you, why won’t you answer me?’’ I glowered. I was also angry, it was mutual so he dared not ignore me. What did he think he just did there by breaking his alliance with Devon? “I thought you were the best at reading my moods? You can't be so blind right now not to see that I'm in no mood for useless banter.’’ He glared back. “And who sa
Evelyn's POV “Luna, we… can't… find her.’’ He panted over the phone.An electrifying shock wavered through me at once, causing a sudden disorder in my body functions. My knees became too weak to carry my weight and my shaky hands were no different. His broken statement kept ringing in my head as I fixed my eyes on Ava's. The tiny part of me that still held consciousness wondered why she was still standing after handing me the phone. Did she also hear what Marcus had said?My face folded into a frown immediately at this thought and she lowered her gaze from me. “I'm sorry, my lady.’’‘‘Scram.’’ I said and she turned around immediately while I watched her retreating figure.“What did you say, Marcus?’’ I murmured once Ava walked a reasonable distance.“I'm really sorry Luna, I don't know how it happened. She was right here before I left to get some food like you instructed, now she is gone.’’“You mean you didn't tie her up or something?’’ I pressed my forehead with my palms, pacin
Luther's POV I could sense the excitement in Xandre’s voice as he dropped the report. I was not surprised, and if not for my unpropitious mood I would have been on my heels already. “Where is she?’’ I asked quietly. At least the news had calmed me and dissolved a portion of my anger. “Right at the office.’’ He answered with such enthusiasm that further justified his excitement. I started for the office immediately with Xandre beside me, trying to keep up with my pace. Evelyn kept tagging along behind us, she hadn't said a word since Xandre’s intrusion. His intrusion was about Sara, not just some other personal business. There was not even a little amount of ardor in her, why was she appearing somewhat languid? Or I was probably overthinking, she is just still stressed out by the new update. She dare not blame me for it. I did every possible thing that could have been done to maintain an ethical relationship between me and Devon, but as expected he has proved to be an ass. I

Evelyn's POV After what felt like years of darkness I fling my eyelids open sharply to meet a blurry white surface. I blinked my lids repeatedly to clear my view when I heard a voice. Or should I say voices?I felt a warm sensation on my forehead, I traced the direction it came to see… Luther? Bloody yes! He was the one. On seeing this, my vision cleared up immediately. “Hey.’’ He called softly. I tried to sit up abruptly, but a striking pain hit my abdomen, earning a whimper from me.‘‘Fuck! Easy, you still need some rest.’’ He grabbed me carefully, helping me sit up. That was when I noticed a shadow on my left side through my peripherals. I almost jumped down from my position when my gaze caught Devon’s. “Hey.’’ His voice was so soft, it sounded weird. “What are you… what happened?’’ I faced Luther and eyed Devon again.“You're recovering,” Luther spoke, and everything came rushing into my memory. The immense coughing, the blood, my screams.“My children! Where are my childr
Evelyn's POV “Then should I get you water, my lady?” Merit came again, she was never going to get tired I guess. I ignored her yet again. She has been convincing me to eat something, but I wouldn't even respond to her.She sighed and finally left. I laid my head on the dining table, looking at nothing in particular. I felt empty. I felt dejected. My life became like a burden to me. I feel so sick and I don't know exactly what is wrong with me. Worse is nobody cares, or Luther doesn't care. He never came to see me, he doesn't ask after me. He hates me now. Even I hate myself. My children were the only pillar I clung onto. Their love was enough to keep me alive and waiting for Luther's forgiveness. I'm sure the pack members hate me now, probably excluding my maids though. I lifted myself wearily, dragging myself to the bed. I reached for my phone and stared at Luther's number, but a knock came on the door. The person came in when I wouldn't respond, and my eyes almost popped out
Alpha Devon's POV A genuine smile lingered uncontrollably on my lips. It was the first time in four years that I felt genuinely happy. The thoughts of having some tiny little feet pattering the floor sent a hearty chuckle off my lips. “We're here, Alpha.’’ My driver announced, turning the engine off. A fresh wind hit my face as I stepped out. I started my way briskly into the building. What could possibly go wrong now? I would be having my children soon! ‘‘Hey.’’ A familiar voice called out. It had better be my ears malfunctioning. “Finally. I've been waiting for you.’’ She came to view from the waiting room, and it wasn't my ears.A deep sigh escaped my lips. Turns out something could actually go wrong. My smiles dissipated.“Why are you here, Kyra?” “Why do you guys always ask me that silly question?’’ She said as she rolled her eyes. “There is no room for you here. You once misused your privilege, you can't have it again.’’ I continued my way inwards. “We both know that b
Evelyn's POV Trailing my eyes on him from his face to his feet, I knew at this moment that I both hated and dreaded this man in front of me. He was my doom! I looked away from him with a silent sigh, trying to gather up my nerves that were depleted first. “Greetings to you too, Devon.’’ I managed to produce a firm tone, even as my insides were crashing down already. Every word that left his lips, there was no way anyone around wouldn't read the meaning of it.‘‘What now? Wonder Woman in action?’’ He jeered. Somehow, I never get to miss his nasty smirks.“Cut to the chase, Devon. Why are you here?’’ I took a sharp breath, blotting up my true feelings behind an unaffected facade. “You know, Evelyn, that's one thing about you. You're so adept at gauging up your emotions. But I suppose Luther has been too foolish to decipher them, too consumed by his selfish desires to recognize your true nature! But well what does it matter now?" His previously furrowed expression transformed into
Evelyn's POV My heavy eyelids paved the way to a rather confined view, despite how much I widened them. It had become a mundanity every morning I awake, after my anticlimactic date with Luther three days ago. I sat up on my bed. Shoving my bedding aside, I went to the bathroom. Did my morning routine and retired back to bed. That is how it has been every morning for the last few days too. Nothing changed. Luther hasn't tried to come to see me, which means he was still really mad at me.I barely left my room, even if it was certain Luther never brought anyone in on the discovery. If my instincts still function correctly, then I guess the incredible knowledge was just limited to myself and the two colluding brothers. I spend the whole of my days in my room. I no longer see the kids often, except for sure they ask after me and are brought to see me. But they haven't since yesterday, and it bothered me.Sabrina isn't an exemption, except that I never approved of her visits. She had
Luther's POV My gaze didn't waver, I made sure to concentrate my attention on her and capture her every expression. She looked lost and confused. She was probably trying to think fast. But as I had plotted, she was caught off guard. She couldn't gather up an excuse quickly. My gaze on her made it even worse for her blink an eye freely, let alone come up with a believable lie. She slowly faced me when she eventually got the nerves to. ‘‘What truth? I mean…why is no one… drinking?’’ She stuttered, despite how much she tried to compose herself. “You know why. Spill!’’ I replied flatly, though my gaze on her said otherwise. She must be questioning herself inwardly, wondering if I found out about her grave secret already. But she's a champ at hiding her emotions, it was a little difficult trying to gauge her thoughts. Her shaky lips parted again, the curiosity to hear what it would say soared within me. But my hopes were shattered by the noise from the server’s entrance, quickly qu
Luther's POV She looked up to me slowly, and though I couldn't really see the look in her eyes through the dim light, I could tell solely that she had nothing but suspicion in them. Her question confirmed it all. I knew she was going to ask, she wasn't so dull. But I was not ready to disclose anything to her yet, I would make her wait and see for herself. ‘‘Luther…’’‘‘Now how are we going to find out if you don't get your round booty on a seat?’’ Devon cake at her, interrupting her speech and snatching my gaze to himself. “Language, Devon.’’ I came at him. I don't appreciate using such flirty words for my mate, it doesn't sit well with me. “Really? Whatever!’’ He rolled his eyes. ‘‘Lynn, sit, we have a lot to talk about.’’ I returned my gaze to her. I didn't know what was going on with her but I'm pretty sure fear was among them. “You wanted us to restore our brother bond right?’’ I started saying again, trying to ease the sudden tension in her.Even if I knew there was stil
Evelyn's POV I stepped out of the bathtub and went for my face towel, burying my face in it. I wiped my face before tying a larger towel around my chest. I stepped out of the bathroom to see Ember by my dressing table. I couldn't figure out what exactly she was onto by the table. She turned to me and a broad smile crawled onto her face. “C'mon, Luna.’’ She beckoned to me.A silent sigh escaped my lips as I started my way towards her. I still haven't been able to ask her anything. What if it happens to be related to her personal affairs or it has to do with her family life? Different thoughts keep haunting me, I couldn't ask her about it yet. Maybe if it happens again in my presence, then I will ask her. I sat in front of the mirror and she started blow drying my hair. “My lady, you've got a beautiful head of hair.’’ I heard her say and my gaze traveled to her in the mirror. She was smiling as usual as she focused on the hair.“Merit said it wasn't like this sometimes ago.’’ Sh
