Gaius’s POV

Shock!

Disbelieve!

I could see the two emotions clearly reflecting in her eyes. While I could understand what was going on with her - simply because I was feeling the same way - I didn’t want to prolong the matter in any way.

“You…” The disbelief in her voice stretched for over ten seconds before she was able to find her voice again. “You…” And again, she lost her voice.

I sighed, knowing that it was only a matter of seconds before the words would plopped out of her mouth.

“Yes, we are mates,” I affirmed to her, hoping that she would let go of the matter since I already gave her the confirmation she wanted. However, she quickly proved me to be wrong.

“How?!” She bellowed.

At that, I got a little irritated. If she thought that I wanted to stand in front of a prison bar and go through a question and answer series, then she was wrong.

Also, if she thought that the mate thing was only shocking to her, again she was wrong. I was just trying to hold off whatever roller co

    Gaius’s POV. “I refuse!”The effect of the words made me feel like crossing over to the other side of the room and strangling the good for nothing man to his death. However, I knew I couldn’t. That was what brought me here in the first place when I could have easily gotten my mate out of the prison hold the man had her in. “All for the greater good!” That feminine voice came over me again, making me release the tightened fists by my sides. *Just a little bit more, and we can kill off the man.* My wolf, Leon, growled within me, also fighting for control just as I was. “Alpha Gaius!” A voice beckoned in urgency behind me. I turned around and saw my guards storming in into the room where I was with Alpha Cyrus. “We came as fast as we could.” This was from my Gama, Dan, who rushed to my side, all his body tensed to indicate that he was ever ready for whatever command I was going to issue next.“You dared to bring your soldiers into my territory?!” Alpha Cyrus stormed at me. I hiss

    Evelyn’s POVTHAT MAN!Not in a million years could I ever have thought that that man would end up being my mate. A second mate at that. And how weird could it be that the man ended up looking exactly like him - my dead mate. Archer Hartwood. Just as the name came to my mind, so did the memory of us together. Even though it was only for a short while, it was one I would not forget in a hurry. And I had thought that we would have a lots of time on our hand to create many more beautiful memories. And even as I tried my best to stop the memory that threatened to burst forth, it still came. That night when he had died. It had all looked like a dream to me when one minute we were laughing and chasing each other around, and the next minute, a scream had rented the air and all I saw when I went to the place the sound came from was the dead body of my mate, Archer. Somebody had thought it fun to take a knife through the heart of the man and had left him there in his agony to fend for

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   Freedom.

    Evelyn’s POV“You are free.”Those words felt like a million and one dancing butterflies in my stomach because of how excited I got at hearing them. Might never seem like a huge feat to most people, but for someone like me who has always been bounded by people and the kind of situation I found myself in, they were a whole lots. But while it felt a whole lot of good to finally be free and have the freedom to do whatever I wanted with my life, I realized that I didn’t even have anything to begin the life with. Not even a change of clothes. Sheepishly, I looked at the man whom I could now refer to as my savior. “Would you like to come with me?” He asked, even as he mounted on his bike. I didn’t wait for any other invitation before I jumped on the bike and sat behind him. Before I could say jack, he ignited the bike and zoomed off on full speed. His guards, who accompanied us, all got into the four cars that were parked around and flagged us about, still trying to protect us. At that

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   The past in the present.

    Evelyn’s POV If embarrassment was a person, I was sure it would be me at that point. Worst of all, I couldn't even move to cover my nakedness or even turn around to protect my body. All I felt was being glued to a spot, not able to do anything at all. “Sorry.” I heard Alpha Gaius apologize in a small voice - a complete contrast to his usual masculine one - before he turned around to give me some privacy. The women with me took that advantage and quickly got my night dress up. Once they were sure I looked presentable, they gave me encouraging smiles and sped out of the room, leaving me alone with my new found mate. By the moon goddess. “Sorry about earlier. I thought you were done with the whole thing.” Alpha Gaius apologized the moment he turned around. He stared directly into my eyes, and I felt myself burning away in his brown eyes. I blushed like a teenage girl, and found that I couldn’t stop it even if I wanted to. My nipples contracted - my first sign of arousal. When I

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   The grief and comfort.

    Gaius’s POV. The tears that she had managed to stop before came back with full speed. They streamed down her soft cheeks, and I found myself feeling guilty for being the reason why she was like that. Not after I had promised myself that as long as I was breathing, she was never going to be sad again. Still, I was right in everything I did. I was right in my thoughts. She was supposed to belong to my brother. She would have, if the man was still alive. “Evelyn, listen to me…” I began but her head shaking broke me off. I wanted to keep mute as she had insinuated, but something in me kept pushing to explain to her. “Archer…” I began again, but again, I had to stop because of how much hurt was reflecting in her face. I knew exactly how she was feeling at the moment. It had come as a rude shock to me when I heard the news of the death of my only brother. The news had quickly reached me that he had been killed by an unknown person on the very first date he had with his mate.

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   The revelation.

    Evelyn’s POV. I suddenly found myself back in the elevator, going up to the top of the floor to see my husband and announce to him about the baby we were going to have together. My wolf, Bree, was busy sharing in the excitement and the hope for what the future would bring for us with Alpha Cyrus now that there was a baby in the picture. Everything seemed to be going just fine. Until then!Halfway through the elevator ride, the elevator door suddenly opened. Before I could have time to react or even acknowledge the presence of the strange man who came in, I was knocked down with a hit in my stomach and the stranger was out of the elevator, leaving me bleeding and close to death. “No! Not my baby!” I screamed, swaying my hands in the air in the bid to protect my baby. I flew up from the floor and gasped for air while looking around. That was when I realized that what I just faced was a nightmare of the past. I was not in the past, but rather on the bed. I sighed and reached for th

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   The truth about Alpha Cyrus.

    Evelyn’s POV. That idiot had killed my first mate!By the moon goddess!I was going to kill him and make sure that even his corpse would be left in the field or the mountains or wherever for vultures to feed on. How dare he!“And do you want to know why?” Alpha Gaius's voice trembled as he let out. “Just because Archer had sworn an oath that Cyrus was not going to commit all his atrocities. At least, not as long as Archer was breathing. Which was why the evil man killed him.” He explained. It was hard to comprehend the words. To think that I had always thought that my ex husband had been nothing but good and kind to everyone - except me - all these while, only to be dealt this news of his cruelty. How could a man with power think that the next best thing to do was kill another person just because the person was trying to stop them from committing evil?Was all that I knew of Cyrus a facade then? Was he worse than Rogues whom we had all been warned while growing to steer clear off

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   The leverage.

    Gaius’s POVI could see it in her eyes. The depth of disappointment she had in her ex husband. Tinted with the disappointment was grieve for herself and maybe some guilt. I knew she was overwhelmed by everything that had been going on. While it seemed a little cruel that I was dumbing everything on her, I knew that it was something that was necessary. Not only would it help her to take her stand seriously, but it would also help her to kill whatever feeling she might still have left for the man. “I am so sorry. For everything each of you had gone through in the hands of that monster.” She said after about a minute or two of silence. Lisa and Adam nodded their heads to show that they heard her. “Evelyn,” I called to get her attention. She raised her head to look at me. “Like I said, there is a fourth associate. They were supposed to be a part of this meeting but they couldn’t make it here tonight. When the time is right, you will meet them,” I explained to her. She nodded her he

    Evelyn. “Aaarrrggghhh! Let me go!” I yelled as two men who held either of my hands attended to drag me off. The last thing I knew before I found myself here was the moment when Alpha Gaius asked me to hide inside the car while he went after the people who were firing against us. The next thing I knew was that someone banged the door of the car open. Here i co to d scream or get the attention of the Alpha, I was knocked out. Now I was awake and I found two men dragging me in the floor like I was some sort of animal. “Leave me alone!” I reeled at them again. When they continued to pretend like they didn’t hear me and continued to drag me off, I held my feet into the soup to give me some strength in order not to be moved. “Walk on your own or we will force you!” One of them threatened in a thick dark voice that was as formidable as his huge body stature. “Where are you taking me to?!” I yelled at them. Instead of getting a response, I saw them look at each other. Then one of them

    ARIELI could here scuttlebutts as I approached the gates to my house. The day at work had been grueling enough, and all I wanted was a hot bath and some peace. But instead, I found myself drawn to the commotion just outside the building.Two guards were standing stiffly, arguing with a young woman. Her tone was sharp, and her gestures wet animated, as if she was trying to convince them of something. From a distance, she looked oddly familiar.“What’s going on here?” I asked, walking closer. The guards stiffened immediately, recognizing me. The young woman turned to me, and I froze.“Alice?”My twin sister stood there, looking all desperate and defiant. Her auburn hair was disheveled, and her blue eyes were mirrors of my own as she glared at me as if I were the cause of her predicament.“Miss Evander,” one of the guards, Brandon, began cautiously. “This woman claimed to be you. She tried to gain entry, but we could tell it wasn’t you by her scent just at the last minute before we let

    Evelyn. “Welcome,” I greeted my mate the moment I sighted him from afar. I rushed to his side and attempted to kiss him. I noticed the subtle way he shifted sideways so I wouldn’t accomplish my mission. I looked at him but didn't say anything. I attempted to kiss him again but he repeated the action. I couldn’t help but think that he was doing whatever he did deliberately. “Are you okay?” I asked him. From all indications, it was clear that he was fine. I became more worried that I might have unknowingly done something wrong to him. “Did I do something wrong?” I asked, rushing to his side when I saw that he was no longer where I was standing. To that, he turned around. “When I walked in here, did I tell you that you did something wrong?” He snapped at me. The volume of his voice made me shiver and I found myself moving away from him involuntarily. As I took each step backward, tears began to drop from my face. I couldn’t fathom why it was that the man had snapped at me that hars

    Alpha Cyrus“You dare!” I heard Alpha Gaius yell from where he stood at the entrance of the door. I took a good look at him and saw that his eyes were blazing red. Even before he moved with speed from where he stood and was soon standing in front of me. “Do you want to die?!” He growled and held my throat. I staggered backward and tried to move away from him but it proved abortive. I soon found that it was not possible so I held his hand with mine to get him to move off. When I realized that I could not break free, I began to slap his hand. My eyes began to water and I couldn’t hold my breath for long anymore. I tried to control myself to get my wolf out on the surface so that my strength would match his own but because I couldn’t concentrate, it was hard to come to terms with my wolf. I had to save myself. “Alpha Gaius!” I heard a man yelling suddenly. I couldn’t turn to look at whoever it was as my eyes were already closing to the dark oblivion that was reaching out to me. “Yo

    Gaius. There was only a day left for the coronation of the Luna. Once we were done with the crowning and all, I was ready to bash anybody who spoke ill of my mate. Compared to the punishment of the Elder, the punishment would be worse. “Is everything ready for tomorrow’s occasion?” I asked the Elder that was in charge of the ceremony. “Yes, Alpha Gaius.” He answered, nodding his head to support his words. “Good,” I said, nodding my head as well. When everything was discussed about tomorrow, I released the man to go on his own. I was about to call the person in charge of the clothes needed for the occasion when the Beta walked in, a gloomy look on his face. “Alpha.” He called in a solemn voice. I knew that something was wrong somehow. “What is it? What’s happening?” I asked, looking at him. The phone in my hand was long forgotten for its purpose. Silently, the man handed me an envelope. I collected it from him with curiosity and quickly opened it to read. I sighed when I saw tha

    Evelyn. “This one is hot on your body!” Alpha Gaius breathed against my neck, nuzzling his nose against my back, sending tingling tingles down my spine. I shivered against his touch and moaned in pleasure when he moved his hand against my breasts, and inched closer to him to give him closer access to the breasts. The clothes I was putting on barely covered the breasts anyway because of how transparent it was. “Hmmm.” The Alpha breathed. His hand squeezed my right breast while he licked my lips with his mouth. His palm played along my bare legs for a little while, then he moved them up to my thigh and he punched me lightly. "Ouch!" I said in faked horror. "What's the plan?" "The plan is for me to fuck the hell out of you," he paused in his words and kissed my neck. "And make sure you can't walk properly for the next two days after I'm done with you." I moaned softly. I knew he couldn't tell if his words had aroused me or if it was his wet tongue circling my neck. Whichever one

    Evelyn. “And on that note, I will be holding a coronation soon for Evelyn to become my Luna!” I heard the announcement the moment I arrived at the open field after Grace came to call me about my mate punishing one of the people who were the protesters during the attack. A coronation? For me to become the Luna officially?“That is such amazing news, Luna,” Grace said with so much excitement in her voice. “Now, everyone who looked down on you will all get it from the Alpha and they won’t ever say anything bad about you again.” She said, jumping up and down in excitement. I looked at Grace and all the way he was feeling excited and I felt bad because I wasn’t sharing in any of her joy and enthusiasm. While a coronation felt amazing to be held for me, I had the kind and thought that it was just not worth it. Of all the problems we had, coronation was just not part of them at the point. There were other pressing matters which required attention and urgent care. “Luna?” Grace called, s

    Gaius. With the anger in me, I swiftly moved to the cell to interrogate the assistant manager and see if he would be able to produce the name of another person that was under the influence of Alpha Cyrus and working in my pack for the man. As I walked through the corridor of the dungeon, a voice called out to me from the dark cell. “Alpha Gaius.”I turned to the side to see the Elder that had revolted against Evelyn while I was away and left her in charge. I turned very well to look at her and hear what she wanted to say. “I didn’t know you were back, Alpha Gaius.” She let out in a somewhat surprised tone. She moved out of the dark and came to the entrance, the bar holding her away from her freedom. “Please get me out of here.” She pleaded. I took a good look at her and wondered if she was part of the people I thought I could trust but she wasn’t there as I thought. If not, I saw no reason why I would trust my people to take care of my pack and my Luna but they would end up being

    Alpha Gaius. Finally, after walking around and trying to strengthen the walls and station more men around, we were finally done for the day. Tired but feeling fulfilled that all was able to work out, I went back to the mansion, knowing that Evelyn would still be waiting for me. I got in and saw her sleeping on the couch. I sighed and shook her to wake up, knowing that she must have fallen asleep while waiting for me to return. “Hey, Kitty,” I called to her when she stretched and opened her eyes. “You’re back.” She said, sitting up straight. I nodded at her, and patted her head gently. “What’s going on? What was in the letter?” She asked immediately. “Why were you sleeping on the couch? You should have slept in the room,” I said to her, still patting her head. I knew that she was curious about the letter but I didn’t want to tell her anything so that she wouldn’t get worried about all that was going on. “I was waiting for you.” She said, yawning. “What was in the letter?” She aske
