The sound of laughter filled the hallway. I had just woken up to start cleaning, as I had to scrub everywhere clean before the morning came.Why were they laughing so happily when it’s still midnight? I wondered. I know my foster parents don’t talk much to each other except when it’s time to punish me; that’s when they become best friends. I tiptoed to the door of their room, placed my ears on the door and tried really hard to hear what they were discussing.“I can’t still believe that in a few days we will have all the money we need. I can’t wait for her to be gone. I want her far away from here! I hate seeing her face”. The malicious tone in her voice made me instinctively aware that they were talking about me. "Oh, my sweet darling, you just have to put up with her for a few more days, and she will be the last problem for us to worry about!” My eyes widened in shock. I couldn’t believe they were talking about me. Or could I be mistaken?“But hold on, the Alpha is willing to pay
Evelyn’s POVI felt a cold splash of water on my body, my eyes flung open and I jumped up immediately.“Get your fucking ass up!” Asher sound resounded in my head, my vision were still blurry as I had just woken up.Memories of the previous night flooded back to me and I remembered the sinister smirk Asher had on his face before I had passed out, my heart pounded against my chest as I felt a surge of anger flow through me.“What did you do to me!” I screamed examining my clothes and body to see if he had done the unthinkable. I rushed towards him and held his clothes tightly.“Asher what did you do to me?” I asked him again in fear. A slap landed on my face as he grabs my neck choking me before his lips curled up in a smirk.“What do you think I did to you?” His eyes scanned my boobs as he licks his lips. I felt my skin crawl and bile run up from my stomach to my mouth making me sick.“You pervert!” I tried to kick him but he threw me to the floor. “I hate you, you are a monster.” I c
Evelyn’s POVI paced around the room as several thoughts went through my head, Mei said she would be back soon to take me to the Alpha and before she left she told me to shower and wear one of the dresses she had picked out for me.Meeting Alpha Devon felt like my world was coming to an end, i couldn’t believe I am going to loosing my innocence to a complete stranger, not just a stranger but a cruel Alpha.I had always fantasized about meeting my mate, we mating and having beautiful children, but who would have thought this is what fate had in stock for me.I pulled off my dress and my figure illuminated in the mirrors in front of me. Pale patches and a few scars were scatteredall across my body plus the new scrapes and bruises from the day before, I ran my fingers through my scars, I used to hate looking at my body but I have grown used to the scars they had even started to blend with my skin.There are a lot of beautiful girls with clear skin and in good shape so why did Alpha Devon
Alpha Devon's POVI didn't know exactly what to think, her outburst left different thoughts running in my head and I can't seem to decipher any of them. I quickly pushed her from my grasp and she staggered a bit. “What did you just say?’’ I roared. She slowly brought her palms to her mouth as if trying to take back what she said and I couldn't help noticing how shaky she was. How can such a weakling be my mate? The fact that I bought her with my money makes it even more meaningless. Her silence was demeaning, I felt anger surge through me and in a flash I grabbed her chin and pushed her to the wall, slamming her back on it. She let out a painful whimper while I tightened my grip, drawing my face closer to hers.“What makes you think we'd be mated?’’ “I'm…sorry'’ She was literally struggling for breath as she spoke.But something in me believes we are mates and that's what angers me more. I felt the rush of a tingling sensation when I grabbed her waist earlier and Ian kept actin
Evelyn's POVMy tears kept flowing nonstop as they dragged me like a useless tool. I should have known I have an ill luck, I'm fated for woe and nothing good. What was I doing, thinking a noble Alpha would be my mate?The guards stopped in front of an iron door and one brought out a bunch of keys from his pocket. He selected the right one and inserted it into the keyhole. I felt my heart leap at the sound of the door unlock and I turned to them.“Please don't do this, you don't have to put me in here. You can find an abandoned room or toilet or anywhere else but not just here please.’’ I pleaded as memories of the nights I spent in my foster parent’s dungeon started flashing through my head. “I'm sorry Miss, we can't disobey the Alpha.’’ the same guard that unlocked the door said. He grabbed my arm to push me inside but I held back with my second hand.“What do you think you're doing?’’ he roared angrily. “You can't also be heartless, I've been pleading” I yelled back before rea
Alpha Devon's POV I opened my eyes to the rays of the sunlight, penetrating directly into them from the window. I slowly tossed over to the other side of my bed to hide from the light but I felt it again, a cold sensation against my left thigh. A throaty groan forced its way out of my mouth and I sat up on the edge of the bed. I looked down on my pants and as expected, it was overly wet from excessive release.What is that dirty omega doing to me? It's been three days since then but I still can't seem to shake her image off my head. I'm definitely overthinking, she probably wasn't as sexy as I'm imagining. What's with these illusions? I need to stop this craziness before it gets out of hand.Not only have I been slipping into thoughts of her but I've also started having wet dreams about her. This is a huge red flag, I might get forced to do what I would overly regret. I know she is my mate or rather, she was my mate because I've rejected her now, the mate connection is supposed t
Alpha Devon's POV “Alright. I was kidding okay? But it won't be too bad if it eventually becomes true” he smiled dreamily that I started trying to figure out what was so sweet about her.“Get the fuck outta here...” I rushed towards him but he ran before I got to him, he ran into my bedroom, laughing maniacally. ~End of flashback~“C'mon. I told you that was just me pulling your legs.’’ He rolled his eyes, heading for the passageway.“It's just a harmless warning.” I shrugged, following behind him. Maybe I just can't afford spending my money on a value only to let it off to someone else. She is mine, mate or not, she belongs to me.“Speaking of her. I haven't seen her around, isn't she out of the dungeon yet?’’ Luther continued. I really didn't want to go into the conversation but I also don't want to behave suspiciously. ‘’She's not.’’ I said as simply as I could and Luther turned to me but I kept my gaze ahead of him.‘’It's been three day now Devon.’’ The fact that he called
Evelyn's POV I remained still, lingering in my spot on the floor. Not even an ounce of strength was left in me. The violent pinches from my tummy resumed and I curled up closer, clutching my stomach weakly.I didn't hear any more sounds from the guards and I started wondering if anyone actually came or talked— maybe it was my imagination. My hope of leaving this place is not up to the size of a mustard seed, it feels like I've spent my whole life here and the skies are only an illusion or a figment of my over-active imagination. An unusual brightness came onto my face and the vision within my closed eyes reddened, I tightened my eyelids in discomfort. ‘’Get up!’’ I heard a thick voice bark at me, echoing in the room. Now I'm sure I wasn't imagining things at the beginning. With my eyes still closed, I gathered every single strength, left in my nerves and pulled myself up, to my knees. My bones creaked and waves of pain enveloped me. I remained on my knees helplessly. How does

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
