Gaius.

My head hung low and my shoulders slumped as I took the last corner before I got to the main road. As I walked, I couldn’t help but feel bad. Of all the things I had expected from all the ordeal of the previous days, it wasn’t that I would be leaving the love of my life at the camp of the enemies.

But I had done that.

I left her there.

I knew she convinced me by herself that I should go as she was sure that she was safe there. However, now that I was back on the road, without her, I couldn’t help but wonder if she had only told me away because she was in so much danger that she wanted me to save myself first.

I shook my head, refuting the thought. My foot stepped on a board that creaked and I sneered in anger.

She couldn’t have been in any danger. If she was, she would have told me through the mindlink when we were using that to communicate. She didn’t say anything of such though and I didn’t see her fidget because she was tense or anything.

Even though I didn’t know who

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   My 'husband'.

    Evelyn's POVEmpty. I had woken up to another empty bed. I reached the spot where my 'husband' should have slept and it was cold as ice. His scent wasn't there. It was everywhere else, but not on the bed. He hadn't slept here last night. I lay still on the bed, staring up at the ceiling, trying to fight the tears that burned the corner of my eyes. This wasn't new. This wasn't the first time. You would think that after being married for eight months, I would be used to this by now. Used to being ignored, to being tortured and tormented emotionally by a man I had foolishly given my heart to. I rolled out of bed and trudged out of my room. I could hear the maids moving around the building, cleaning and chattering. "Luna." They bowed when I walked past them, downstairs. I was following a scent. The one scent that made my heart beat faster and blood rushing through my ears. I found him in the kitchen, naked down to the waist, holding up a frying pan. His dark hair was to

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   All the same.

    Evelyn's POV "C-Clara," I stuttered when the couple did not stop their obscene act. "What... What's the meaning of this?" She ignored me for a while and I grew angry. "Clara, stop this right now!" She sighed, tossed me a scathing look before disentangling from her lover. Naked, she climbed off the bed and strutted toward me. The last time I had seen her, her skin had been so pale and white. Now she looked so vibrant, it was confusing. "I thought you were sick. I thought you had the disease," I whispered, backing away with each step she took toward me. "Oh, please." She scoffed. "May the goddess forbid. I am hale and hearty as you can see." Roman approached the room then. He shoved me aside, causing me to fall to the ground while he laughed cruelly. "The gig is up, Clara?" "I got tired." She shrugged while I looked on in disbelief. "For how long was I supposed to pretend to be sick? She already married the Alpha in my place, so what's the point?" I gaspe

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   Threats.

    Evelyn's POV My heart beat faster as I reread the text. Run? What did that mean? Was it Raven? Was she trying to threaten me into leaving Cyrus? "No," I shook my head, sniffing. "He's mine! Cyrus is mine!" I sent him a series of texts, demanding where he was and reminding him that he was supposed to have dinner with me. I got nothing in response, so I waited. By ten that night, my husband walked in, reeking of Raven's scent. "You're late," I sniffed, not moving an inch from where I was. He ignored me, ready to walk upstairs. "I made dinner." "It's late," he replied gruffly. "I had dinner already.” "With Raven," I spat, and heard him growl. I could hear the maids creeping out of their rooms, probably ready to witness another one of the many scenes of us arguing. "It's late, wife. If you're not eating, then go to bed.”"My name is Evelyn!" I yelled, rising from my chair and storming over to him. "And I am your Luna. Your wife. Not that crazy woman!" He stopped in h

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   Stripped of her title.

    Evelyn's POV When I woke up, it was in a ward room. I was surrounded by the relieved faces of doctors and nurses. For a minute, I wondered why I was back in the hospital. Then, it dawned on me. I hastily tried to sit up, clutching my belly. "My baby," I croaked. "Please tell me nothing happened..." The doctor's relieved expression slowly shifted into a grim look. "I apologize, Luna Evelyn." He spoke, and my stomach dropped. "By the time you were rushed here, you had lost the baby." My body trembled. I closed my eyes, leaning back into the bed, trying not to break down. "Did my husband bring me here?"There was silence. I didn't have to open my eyes to know that they were staring awkwardly at each other. Their silence meant one thing. Cyrus hadn't known I had bled all over his elevator. At least not yet. "I would like to be alone," I murmured, turning my back to the doctor and nurses. I didn't make a sound but hot tears slipped down my face as I cried. I had lost m

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   Let me go!

    Evelyn's POV "Let go of me!" I screamed as the soldiers lifted me in both arms and carted me out of my home. "Let go this instant! Cyrus! Cyrus, you can't be serious!" I looked over my shoulders as I was being dragged away from my home. A maid had a sad look on her face as she closed the front door. The soldiers shoved me into a car and drove while I screamed. They arrived at the pack prison and left me down to the dungeon. A place kept for hardened criminals and dangerous people. It reeked of dirt and blood and sweat. I could hear the hollering of the prisoners as I got led through a small hallway down to a prison at the end. I had stopped screaming. What was the point? No one could save me. I had been rejected by my family, treated as dirt, and used as a pawn over and over. And then I yearned for the love of a cruel man who treated me like a prisoner. Because of his lover. "I'm sorry, Luna." One of the guards mumbled in apology as he opened the jail gate. I wal

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   Archenemies and Mates?

    Gaius’s POVShock! 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

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

    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

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   You are free.

    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   The agreement.

    Evelyn. I heaved a sigh of relief when I finally noticed that my mate had realized the danger that lurked in front of him while he was trying to rush forward to save me. I was not going to let him fall into the traps these people had set up for him simply because of me. “Let him go! I am going to stay here as your hostage, so let him go!” I told Lolita, the woman who held me as a prisoner. Her evil laughter filled the air and I briefly wondered about the whole air that surrounded her to turn her into such an evil person. I didn’t have to think far though. If it was Alpha Cyrus, then anyone could turn evil because of him. “Why should I listen to you?” The woman answers with a snort. I wanted to shout at her that she promised not to harm anyone as long as I complied with her so there was no reason for her to go back on her words. I however held my peace, knowing that shouting wouldn’t stop anything at that point. “Please,” I pleaded, my voice very low and sober. I was ready to do

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   Found you.

    Alpha Gaius. Shortly after seeing that Evelyn was missing, I transformed back to my human form. I searched through the compartment where there were always clothes kept just in case of an emergency like this. I found one and quickly grabbed one. I changed as fast as I could. Once I was done, I sniffed the car some more and also the air so that I would be able to get enough of Evelyn’s scent that was not tinted with those of the people who came to get her. I followed the scent and found myself passing through buildings and alleyways, places I was assuming they took so they wouldn’t be in the open for anyone to question them. I thought it was going to be very easy to get to them but it turned out that the journey that I thought was going to end soon was one that lasted all through the night till the dawn of the next day. Before I could fathom what was going on, I was in the middle of nowhere, compared to when I was still working in dark alleys. Soon, I found myself tracing my mate’s s

    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

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   It is done.

    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
