Daxton-

Once inside the house, I let my eyes wander. There weren’t any pictures on the wall but every aspect was fully Keva. I thought that after two years of being with Ethan, there would be some touch of his presence in the house, but I didn’t notice anything.

Everything, from the furniture to the décor was Keva through and through. If I hadn’t heard Keva mention she lived with Ethan for a while, I wouldn’t have guessed it. Not a single item represented a man living in the house.

The house seemed a little bare and didn’t hold any valuables, which caused my heart to ache. The once pampered little girl that I remembered, didn’t have anything decent. All the furniture looked second-hand. Even the quilt draped over the back of the worn-out couch looked to be handmade.

I could imagine Keva sitting in the small rocking chair in the corner of the room, spending countless hours pouring her heart into making the quilt. The handiwork of the quilt was without a doubt Keva’s.

    Keva-When I woke in a strange room, I wasn’t sure where I was, until I remembered what I had done after returning home. I also vaguely recalled Daxton taking me out of the house and bringing me to his house. Sitting up on the bed, I thought about everything that had happened since returning to face Ethan.I had been prepared to deal with him, but now I was starting to think I was in over my head. The pain in my heart was still raw and nothing was going as I thought it would. Perhaps I should have waited until I was in better health or had a better idea of what I wanted to do.Feeling out of sorts and like I was a little lost, I let out a sigh, as I pushed off the blanket covering me and moved off the bed. I looked around the room and noticed that the furniture was new, but a little plain. It wasn’t the quality of the furniture, it was how there wasn’t a single decoration.Placed in the center of the room was a king-size bed, with a black headboard. There was a nightstand on both side

    Keva-“Alpha!” A man yelled from the front door while knocking on it rapidly.We had just finished eating and Daxton was in the kitchen washing dishes. I offered to help, but he refused and told me to relax in the living room. Since Daxton’s hands were buried in soapy water, I went to answer the door.I recognized the man as Daxton’s Beta but had only seen him once. I could remember his name, but since it seemed like he had something important to discuss with Daxton, I stepped out of the way and let him enter the house. Daxton’s Beta didn’t hesitate as he swiftly entered the house and entered the kitchen.“What’s wrong?” Daxton asked as he continued washing the dishes.“Ethan came with some of his warriors and is demanding to see Keva.”“What does he want to see her for?” Daxton’s expression changed from calm to anger, almost immediately.“He claims that she burned down his house.”“His house?” I scoffed as I shut the front door. “That house is mine.”“Where is he?” Daxton asked as he

    Keva-Sticking to the back of the crowd, I watched silently with satisfaction. Ethan didn’t look like he was having much fun. Surrounded by pack members as they demanded an explanation while waving paper in his face, Ethan was sweating profusely.“If we knew that you weren’t the one to do all these things, we never would have accepted you as our Alpha!” One member shouted.“We don’t need an Alpha who is reaping the rewards of someone else's credit!” Another shouted.“What is going on here?” The previous Alpha asked, holding up a paper. “Why is Keva’s name on all of this? Did you lie to me so that I would accept you as my successor?”One of the members dropped the paper on the ground. Since I didn’t know what the paper was, I bent over to pick it up. After examining it, I saw it was one of the papers Daxton had shown Ethan earlier.“Did you do this?” I asked Daxton as I held up the paper.“I couldn’t let Ethan talk his way out of it or hide it. Now that the truth is out, he will pay fo

    Keva-We didn’t proceed with the challenge behind the packhouse; instead, we went to the training grounds, which is as large as a football field. As we ventured over, we passed by my house, or what remained of it. It was a pile of debris and soot. Surprisingly, seeing the house made me feel much better like my heart was lighter.After stepping onto the training grounds, I walked to one side of the field, while Ethan and Natalie walked to the other. Roughly twenty yards separated us. While I stretched my limbs, I watched Ethan and Natalie whisper to each other. I couldn’t hear what they were saying, but it didn’t matter.“Are you sure about this?” Daxton joined me on the field.“Since they issued the challenge, I have no reason to disagree. Even if I am not at full strength, I believe I can handle Natalie. Her lies are full of holes, but I remember hearing that she was never trained. She claimed that her so-called father didn’t have her trained because she is his precious daughter.” I

    Keva-“I am starting to believe that every word out of your mouth is a lie, with how easy it is for you.” I sneered.“I am not lying!” Natalie yelled with tears streaming down her face.“You really should have tried a career in acting, I think you missed your calling.” I shook my head as I looked at the audience and how they were wrapped around her finger. “Or just give everyone a stupidity reward.” I let out a small laugh, unable to hold it back.I was tempted to let the show come to an end and tell everyone the truth about who I was. As my eyes shifted from one face to the next, I knew I couldn’t let everyone off so easily. Seeing how convinced everyone was that they were on the right side, I wondered how everyone would respond when they learned the truth. Right now, Natalie and Ethan have their absolute trust.“What do you want to do?” Carter’s voice filled my head.“I don’t know. I hadn’t expected this to happen. As much as I want Natalie to suffer like I did, I am not going to s

    Keva-“This is the only way you will get their absolute trust.” I twisted toward Carter, placing my hands on his arm. “If Natalie sees what you are willing to do for her, she will begin to let down her guard. I thought about it and it isn’t enough to just prove that she is a fake. I want to show everyone what kind of people they are.”“You are asking the impossible.” Carter shook his head and shoved my hands off him before standing up to pace the room.“I know I am asking a lot, but this is the only way.” I quickly stood and placed myself in front of Carter, grabbing his arms and forcing him to stand still to look me in the eye. “You know I can handle it.”“But…” Carter's eyes filled with tears and my love for my brother increased.“But nothing. Remember when we were being trained, we had to undergo torture as well. As the future leaders of our kind, we were taught how to get through anything. If we are ever captured and tortured by enemies, we must know how to survive, keep our secre

    Keva-“Don’t stop!” I ordered my brother through gritted teeth.“I can’t do it anymore.” Carter dropped the bullwhip and took a few steps back.He has been torturing me for two hours so far and other than the whip, everything else was finished. I had numerous wounds all over my body from different torture methods, but he has only used the whip on me three times. Since I was chained to the wall, I couldn’t move much other than craning my neck to look behind me at my brother.He had tears streaming down his face and his hands were shaking. Carter was two years older than me, but currently, he looked like a small child who had done something horribly wrong and was devastated with immense guilt. I knew that each time he had hurt me, it hurt him as well, but it wasn’t time to stop.Carter cherished me more than his life and he has never done anything to physically hurt me. Each time he caused me pain, he became distressed. Thankfully I was skilled with computers and would be able to edit t

    Keva-“Do you have a problem with that?” Natalie asked Ethan.“Not at all. I am just confused. I thought all werewolves are weak around wolfsbane.”“Me and my siblings aren’t. We were exposed to it at a young age and became immune for the most part. It can still affect us, but as long as we don’t directly ingest it or touch it, it doesn’t do anything to us.” Carter explained.“Then why does Natalie need to leave?” Ethan asked.For once, Ethan seemed a little smart. Turning my head to glance at them, it seemed as if Ethan was genuinely confused, and a hint of doubt was displayed in his expression. Natalie looked toward Carter as if he would answer for her.“I, uh…” Natalie staggered back as Carter and Ethan focused on her with penetrating eyes.“You have a point. Gumdrop, if you want to stay, you are more than welcome. Since you are more immune to wolfsbane than I am, perhaps it will be better for you to use it on her.” Carter cocked his head and the corner of his mouth twitched as his

    Daxton-Tapping the end of my pen against the desk, I watched the clock and counted how much longer I would need to stay. Technically I could leave whenever I wanted to, but I had to make it appear that I was unhappy about my mate being locked up. It has already been three days since Keva has pretended to be detained by Carter.There were still a few hours until our plan to pretend to have my pack doctor announce that Keva was in a coma. Currently, Ethan is away from the territory but should return at any time. Once he returned, the show would begin. Everything needed for the plan to go smoothly was already in place, but I was becoming anxious the longer I waited.Ethan has set me up in a room in the pack house, to use as an office. I didn’t want to be away from Keva right now, especially since she was still healing. Technically it wasn’t a big deal about going home now, since Keva was at Carter’s house. I was just annoyed that I couldn’t be with her.“Daxton?” Natalie’s voice came th
