EVOLETThe following morning, I thought Mom would stop me from stepping out into the public after what happened with Allen. But she didn’t.Instead, she advised me to make sure both Cadell and Trent where near by, so that Allen wouldn’t dare to get closer to me.“If that crazy man makes any move, Wolfy can bite his legs off while Kitty plucks both eyes out. You won’t get into trouble for defending yourself. At least people would be around to witness it themselves.”“Right, I’ll keep that in mind,” I had responded through my teeth, finding that advice kind of horrifying.Still, I took her advice and left home with both Cadell and Trent to start my training for the day. But Cadell suddenly canceled the plan without any reason, surprising Trent and I.“Is he okay? He has been acting weird all morning,” Trent asked as we both walked behind Cadell.Nodding, I responded to Trent’s question, “Yeah, he is. I think he has something else to do today.” I lied, knowing well that Cadell’s behavior
EVOLET “So, Um… How’s Wolfy and your little Kitty cat?” Derby asked, grinning at me. But I didn’t return the gesture after her sudden drama with Trent. Thanks to her, Trent had to sit at a different table feeling uncomfortable with Derby’s presence. He even suggested that I talk with her and get her to leave on time. That request left me upset, because I know Derby is a nice and friendly girl. But to Trent, it was the opposite. “You didn’t come along with your pets. Is it because of them?” she asked, signaling to Trent and Cadell, who sat three tables away from us. I still didn’t answer her but frowned. That was enough to show Derby how I was feeling towards her. With a sigh, Derby lowered her head and said, “Eve, I’m sorry. I don’t know what came over me.” “Well I want to know. What happened back there? You just switched from the sweet Derby I know to a Crazy girl who has never seen a guy in her life before!” “I think that’s where the problem is,” she muttered, drawing
EVOLET“What makes you say that?” I finally got my voice, lifting my brow at Trent.He had his mouth opened at first but went shut. Then with a light smile, he said, “Don’t mind me. I think I’m just assuming things.” He chuckled, rubbing the back of his neck.“Today’s encounter with your friend is just getting to my head. You know I’m an Alpha, and as a man of Royalty, I find it hard to relate with anyhow person, especially people outside my kind.”“I think I understand you,” I said, showing him my support.Trent sighed and nodded his head, saying, “Forget about the question. I’m sure Derby isn’t that bad. She’s even better than Cadell. If I can live with that kind of guy under one roof, then why not Derby?”I laughed on hearing Cadell’s name from his mouth. “I’m going to agree with you on that,” I chuckled along with Trent, who got to his feet and said, drawing closer to the window, “You’re right. I just need more time to understand her. There’s no harm in that.”“Now that’s much bet
EVOLET“Fancy seeing you again, Omega. How have you been?” Gamma Dave smiled, giving a light bow in the open, making passers by gawk at us, especially at me.They might think he’s being respectful, but even an ant can tell that his bow and greetings are nothing but fake. I am not stupid.“Gamma Dave, nice to see you again.”“Are you sure, Evolet?” He questioned, lifting his brow in doubt. “Your face doesn’t rhyme with your words.”“Same with yours, Gamma. The people around may think this is how Wolf Fall’s Gamma has been treating me in the Alpha’s home, whereas it’s the opposite,” I smirked, tilting my head to the side.Hearing my take on his approach, Gamma Dave chuckled out like I have made a joke, rubbing his chin. “I won’t deny that, Evolet. We haven’t been on a good page from the start.”“Oh Waw. What a surprise,” I rolled my eyes.“But that’s in the past. Now you’re like the face of the pack. There’s no day I don’t hear about you, after the great heroic act you carried out that
EVOLETThe night was finally here and I couldn’t wait to head down to the arena and watch the games for Derby’s sake.Even though Gamma Dave’s action had almost changed my mind about heading to the battleground, I shoved that animal aside and stood on my promise to Derby.She’s my friend after all, and I want to show her my support. But that can possible when Mom leaves for her work.I must say, I’m happy she’s starting tonight, otherwise she would have said no, if she wasn’t heading out.“Goodness, I forgot my purse,” Mom groaned, rushing back into her room.I, on the other, sat on the couch with both Cadell and Trent, watching my Mom run about, looking for what and what she needs for her night work. It’s not as if I can’t help her, but I don’t want her screaming at me again.When I tried to assist her in getting her things ready, she asked with a frown, “Why are you acting like someone who wants to kick a problem out the door? Did I ask you to help me?”All because I tried to help o
EVOLETLike mother, Like daughter!I don’t know how Fiona’s mother spotted me when her eyes are supposed to be on her daughter!Goddess! This is a problem. What can I do?“Answer me, Evolet! Are you at the arena?!” Mom yelled, getting furious.“Mom, I’m…”“Don’t make me leave this place and head back to that house to find you absent!” She roared, interrupting me. “If I discover you’re not there…”“Maybe that will be enough for you then,” I suddenly said, sounding bold. “It’s best you leave your work and head down here right now, since you feel Fiona’s mother is right and your daughter is in the wrong.”Mom went silent. She couldn’t speak on hearing my response to her rage.This was the best approach. Maybe, just maybe, she’ll buy my lies and stay back. I don’t want her leaving the store and storming back home, just to discover that her daughter was lying to her.Goddess! Help me out here.“Isn’t that right?” I questioned, still in my strong tone. “You believed what that woman said, fo
EVOLET“It’s the only option left,” I groaned, dragging myself into the forest after managing to escape Gamma Dave and his men’s brutal attack on me.Those monsters showed their true colors in a few minutes. They didn’t care about the people in our path, but flung them aside like trash. They were so desperate to get me.Every corner I ran into, they where there.I was lucky to have dodged one of them when he slashed his claws at my ribs, with the goal to pin me down. But it was by the goddess’s grace that I made it. I only ran off into many corners to cover my tracks from them, diving into the forest with a bleeding rib.“Just a few more steps, Eve,” I moaned, leaning against a tree to check the wound given to me by that beast.It wasn’t that serious, but it ached.“If only my wolf was active, I would have healed up quickly,” I sighed, covering that area while heading deeper into the forest.I have no destination in mind at the moment, just a plan. No matter where I run to, I’m sure G
EVOLET“I knew it,” Gamma Dave choked out, chuckling in Cadell’s grip. “The moment… I watched that video for the tenth time, I had a feeling that the… the grumpy fellow going head to head with my Alpha… was the Rogue himself,” He chortled, ignoring the fact that he was at Cadell’s mercy.Cadell didn’t say a thing but kept his cold gaze on Gamma Dave, tilting his head to the side. Looking at his face, I could see the same fury he had when Beta Dean tried to force himself on me that night.That face expression is enough to tell me the doom Gamma Dave is about to face. And this time, I won’t yell out to Cadell to stop. He can die for all I care.“What’s next, Rogue? I now know your secret identity!” Gamma Dave bragged, grabbing Cadell’s hand, trying to break free. But it was impossible.Despite being in his wolf form, he couldn’t overpower human Cadell. He looked like a complete loser at the mercy of a child.“You are in so much trouble, Omega!” The idiot still had the guts to talk to me
QUEEN CHRISELDAAfter all my effort to protect and guide him on the right part, Allen dares to blame me for his own stupidity?!That ungrateful wolf had the guts to stand up to my face and question me, the Queen?!“Allen!” I groaned, feeling so mad and frustrated!I had no idea on what to do anymore. The whole people of Wolf Fall are after him. They now know the truth behind his lying teeth!It’s not just my people that saw that horrible video, but werewolves from other lands!Alphas have been trying to contact me to know what is going on, and… and I don’t have anything to say to them.What do I want to say? That the video is fake and it’s just a prank being pulled on my son?Nobody is going to believe that lie after what they watched. That video clearly shows Allen as a pervert.Worst, he tried to force himself on Evolet’s friend!What kind of a stupid child did I give birth to?!“Foolish! How could you do this to me?!” I vented out, scattering his room in rage!“I warned him but he
ALLEN“You… you can’t be serious. He’s not dead. I saw him yesterday before…” My voice trembled.I was finding this hard to believe. I wanted Thelma’s words to be a joke or a game she planned with Dean, but her expression… Goddess, it’s true!“It’s really terrible, Alpha. The guards had to drop his body at the hospital while I made my way down to the mansion to give you the heartbreaking report,” she said, glancing at the damsels then back at me.She didn’t announce this out for anyone else to hear. The horrible news was meant for my ears alone.Horrified by this, I decided to head down to the hospital and see things for myself.Thelma came along. She kept those damsels off my path, until we were sitting in my car, heading down to our destination.I drove to the hospital with fear. My whole hands were shaking while hanging on to the steering wheel.I was begging the Goddess to wake me up from this horrible nightmare taking place. Everything is supposed to go my way. It’s supposed to b
ALLEN“Fool! I warned you, but you didn’t listen!” She struck a punch to my chest, causing me to stagger back into the room.My guard had to flee at the sight of the Queen’s wrath. He didn’t want to get caught up by in her rage.“You’ve ruined everything! All my effort in planning a better future for you, you’ve ruined it all, you… you… ARGH!” She roared, grabbing my collar and slamming my back against the wall with her wolf strength!I’m supposed to react and stand my ground, but this is my mother.That’s the only thing holding me back.I lifted my head and stared right into the Queen’s eyes. She had so much fury buried within for me.“I warned you to stop this habit and behave yourself, but you felt your mother was controlling your life and doesn’t want you to enjoy yourself! Can you see where your merriment has led you to, your Majesty?!”She dragged me closer and tossed me back again at the wall roughly.I stayed there like a complete loser, listening to my mother point out all th
ALLEN“What do you mean by difficult? Aren’t you wolves?!” I questioned the guards furiously.They quivered before me and replied, talking about my Beta’s trail, “Alpha, we were tracing his scent from his car but… It suddenly vanished.”Their report made no sense at all!“Vanish as how?! Did he puff out of the face of earth or what?” I questioned, finding their story totally stupid.But their face expression began to trouble me. Even the sorceress’s mood made me wonder if Dean had really disappeared like these guards were saying.This can’t be possible. His scent can’t disappear like that. Dean has to be somewhere around!“Where last did you pick his scent?” The sorceress questioned, giving all her attention to my men.They felt more relaxed with Thelma and told her all they discovered while looking for my Beta.“We had to sniff again and trail where he had gone, but it kept taking us to a dead end and that’s all,” they shared.Thelma who was listening, hummed at their words and said,
EVOLET“Hey, where’s your Wolf?” one of the girls asked while we were entering the dining room.I looked at her direction and replied, “He’s resting. He has been playing all day.”“Aww! Such an adorable creature,” she and two others commented, finding it sweet.But Cadell isn’t resting. He’s not back yet.Derby who walked next to me with Trent in her hold, asked in a whisper, “Have you called your Mom to see if he’s on his way? It’s getting kind of late already.”“No need for that. Cadell is not a kid. He’s older than all of us here.” I chuckled, taking my seat.“He’ll be back. That’s how he flows.”That’s how Cadell moves after all. He loves the night.I’m sure he decided to roam around for a little while. When he’s done, he’ll come back.We were soon joined by Alpha Allen, who was looking a bit rough from the hair down to his shirt.His upper buttons were opened, like someone who just came out from a steamy room filled with… “Shit, he was sleeping with another woman,” I pointed out
CADELL“Are you okay?” I asked, holding Evolet closely while hanging on to a window away from the throne room.She was shivering in my arms because of her wolf, but managed to nod with a smile. “Yeah, I’m good,” she responded, lifting her head to look into my gaze.Her eyes were still glowing because of her unfixed necklace. There was no time to attend to it, since Chriselda’s guards came rushing inside to search the room.But my Evolet’s beautiful eyes… Goodness! I might get lost in again if I stare for too long. I need to control my feelings until the time is right.Then I can have my Eve to myself without having to hide anymore.“Hey,” She called, lifting her brow at me with a smirk spreading to the side of her lips. “Why are you staring at me like that? Could it be that my acting skills left you blown away?” She asked, teasing me.I smiled, holding her firmly.“You’re really beautiful in this dress. It fits you perfectly,” I said, looking down at the purple gown she was putting on
QUEEN CHRISELDA“Tell me… Who’s a better Queen between the late Violet and I?” I asked my maids while staring at my reflection in the mirror.“Um… Between you two?” They mumbled amongst themselves, looking terrified.I saw their faces through my mirror. It looked as if I had asked a very dangerous question that will take their lives away.Well, maybe that’s what will happen, if their answer affects my mood negatively.“You of course, Luna. You are better than the late Queen Violet!” They chorused, smiling at me.But their grins are just fake!I can see through their faux response. They think that dead woman is better than me!“Okay. What’s your take on that Omega called Evolet?” I asked, turning around to face them. “Do you think she possesses the qualities of a Luna?” I lifted my brow, waiting for their response.Among the seven maids who stood before me, only five were wise enough to stay shut while the other two… “She does, my Queen! Evolet is an amazing girl.”“My honest opinion L
QUEEN CHRISELDA“Move,” I ordered my guard while taking my seat in the back of my car.He pulled out of from the premises, driving out into the pack.“Where exactly are we going, my Queen?” Beta Dean asked right next to me. He looked confused because I didn’t tell him where we were heading to. I only ordered him to come along and he obeyed.“When we get there you’ll know,” that was my only response.He said nothing after that. He just sat there quietly.Unknown to him, I’m thinking about that Omega girl. She has taken away my peace from this mansion, and I desperately want to get something to use against her!My plan was ruined at the arena. I invited that man and promised to give him something special, if he could get Evolet under my control.But the plan failed because of that stupid girl!That power given to that stranger by my sorceress, became a waste!It was at that period I needed Thelma’s help in taking out Evolet, but she has decided to devote her time in finding the spirit w
EVOLET“We don’t have any more time,” I said, pacing about in my room.The others watched, understanding how troubled my mind was over the situation we were facing.They were also in the same mood.Queen Chriselda’s second action has revealed how serious and desperate that woman is to ruin me.The first was her strange decision at the arena with that man. The glare she gave since I refused to do what she wanted, and the weird aura I sensed from the stranger, proved the Luna’s mission to take me out.Cadell also confirmed it. He immediately recognized the energy as something from the sorceress herself.That means the Queen and that old witch coated the stranger with something to bring me down!The more she keeps displaying her true form, the more I can feel a great danger lurking around.But that won’t stop me from carrying out my missionWe need to act real fast before they try another crazy attack on us or even get a clue of our mission here.“Allen or Chriselda? Who should we handle
