EVELYN

I didn’t say anything. Words felt useless with everything that was happening. Instead, I gently scooped her up and carried her to the bathroom. Warm water ran over her skin as I washed her carefully.

Once she was clean, I brought her back to the room and dressed her in a purple flared gown that swayed like flower petals. I tied her hair into a simple ponytail, letting a few soft strands frame her face, then slipped on her tiny black shoes.

Deep down I know she's wanting to call me mummy.

“You look so pretty. And so strong,” I murmured, kneeling to meet her eyes.

She smiled.

Then, the door creaked open.

John.

My heart jolted, as I clenched my fists at my sides, barely stopping myself to yell at him.

"I made breakfast for both of you. Yours is in the dining room," John said, his voice soft and low.

I knew he was speaking to me, but I didn’t even glance his way. Instead, I gently patted my daughter’s hair, keeping my smile soft. Without a word, I stood up and walked past him, i

    EVEYLN"I don't know either," he said, his brows furrowing. "She just walked in and started moving like a snake."He motioned for me to sit on the couch, then took off his suit jacket and sat down himself. I hesitated, still trying to process everything. Should I go after her and ask for an explanation, or just stay and sit down?I shook my head and without saying another word, I turned and walked out of his office, my steps quick and determined. I scanned the hallway, trying to figure out where she might have gone. Then it hit me, she could be in the women's bathroom.That wasn’t like her. The Mimi I knew would never act this way. There had to be a reason. I couldn’t believe it. And the bigger question remained, what was she even doing in this city?My phone rang from inside my bag. I pulled it out and saw Giovanni’s name on the screen. I answered right away."When are you free? I’d love to visit and discuss something with you," he said."Gio, I’m at the company right now, but I’ll b

    EVELYN "Are you daft? Don't you know I prefer my coffee with less sugar?" Diane yelled, her eyes wide with anger as she glared at me. Her hands shook with rage and immediately, she splashed the hot coffee all over my face.The burning liquid ran down, and I flinched, my heart racing as I wiped my eyes. The sting of her anger hurt more than the coffee itself.Have you ever seen a pack where Luna is still neglected and treated like a slave, even after getting married?Well, that’s me. I’m Evelyn Matthew, a 20-year-old girl who is mated to the powerful Alpha John from the Silver Moon pack. He was my second chance mate, a sparkle of hope after my first mate cruelly rejected me. It was the most painful experience of my life, a memory that haunts me since I was barely 18. My parents are dead, and now I live in the slave quarters where most omegas and orphans stay and are mistreated by the citizens of the Silver Moon pack.When I found out that my second chance mate was the Alpha of the pac

    .EVELYN Everything I was feeling at that moment came to a sudden halt. I slowly lifted my head, as I strained to comprehend what I just heard. A sharp wince escaped my lips, my body protesting as I attempted to shift my weight onto the edge of the bed. What was he talking about? Rejection? My heart sank like a stone in my chest. As I gazed up at him, my eyes widened in disbelief. I couldn't even stand on my feet properly because of the cold shivers running down my spine as soon as he finished that statement. My knees went weak. "Alpha John..." I managed to whisper, my voice trembling. “You heard me.” He interrupted coldly, his tone sharp and brutal. I shook my head in disbelief, and gathered my strength to stand up straight. I looked up at him and noticed the tight lines etched across his forehead and the way his jaw clenched. He was dead serious. But why? He picked up his shirt from the bed and wore it, standing by the window. His back was turned to me, the fabric of his

    “That push was hard, Evelyn,” Diane began, her voice trembling as she wiped away her tears with the back of her hand, a pout forming on her lips. “Why…why did you have to do that when you knew that I was pregnant?” She sobbed more, exaggerating her expression.What... What is she saying? I felt my heart pound in my chest, each beat echoing the fear that coursed through me. When did she ever tell me she was pregnant? What kind of insane accusation is this? "If anything happens to my child, my heir, Evelyn, I won't let you off easy. Is that why you pushed her so hard? So she would lose this baby? Why are you so heartless?" John's voice was filled with disappointment directed at me, and he shook his head, his brow furrowed. His fists were clenched tightly at his sides, knuckles white as if he wanted to punch me.He fully believed her. Just how much did she have him wrapped around her fingers?"Please, believe me, I'm just finding out—"Before I could finish, Diane's loud cries drowned o

    EVELYN POVWait, what?My mind was spinning as I tried to understand what he was saying. Confusion hit me hard, and it took a moment for the shocking truth to sink in.The guards opened the back door of the car with cold expressions while Alpha John hurried into the front seat. “No! This can't be happening!” I gasped as panic took over. I shook my head vigorously, fear flooding through me.“No! You can’t do this!” I shouted, struggling against the guards who held me tightly. I thrashed around, but each attempt to break free only made them hold on more firmly.No! There's no way he was going to force me into giving my kidney out to Diane!"Please, just leave me alone! You can't do this to me!" I cried, my voice shaking and tears streaming down my face. I felt desperate as I struggled against the guards' strong grip. I managed to break free with one arm, but their other hand held my other arm tightly.The guards glanced at each other, showing no sign of sympathy.“No! Please! I won't l

    EVELYN POV My eyes fluttered open and it seemed like I was getting pulled out of a dark sea. A dull pain filled my head and spread through my body.I blinked against the bright light, my eyelids feeling heavy as I tried to open them.I couldn’t even remember when I passed out. The last thing I remembered was the doctor’s words:“If Alpha John finds out we’re not finished with the first stage, he’ll kill us…”As my vision cleared, I slowly turned my head to the right. Each movement took a lot of effort. My heart sank when I saw the heart rate monitor on the wall, beeping softly. Wires connected it to my chest and left hand, tying me down.Taking a deep breath, I turned slowly to my left, feeling dread in my stomach. There, hanging from an IV pole, was a blood bag, its red contents swaying gently. It was connected to my hand. That was when I realized. I could feel the emptiness in my veins, knowing that my blood was being extracted from my body without my permission.This was the ‘fir

    EVELYN POV“Life is cruel, Evelyn. We live today and die tomorrow—that's just the meaning of it all…” Her voice dripped with disdain, each word slicing through the tension in the air.“Are you really having kidney problems? Answer me, you bitch!” I demanded, my voice sharp and fierce, a fire igniting within me. At that, she erupted into a harsh, mocking laughter that echoed in the room. She spun around, her smile wide and taunting, so that I could see her well. She was perfectly fine and healthy."Of course not, you idiot! Can't you see the game I’m playing here or are you just dumb?!" My breath caught in my throat. Oh, Moon Goddess!"So you’re faking it?" My heart pounded wildly against my ribcage. I shook my head in disbelief, trying to sit up, but my body felt heavy and unresponsive, sharp pains radiating through me with each movement. I couldn't believe this. She was just lying about having a failing kidney??? So I was about to lose one of my kidneys for nothing? “I have a pi

    ALPHA JOHN XAVIER."Don't worry," Nurse Aria assured calmly. "Once the kidney transplant is done, it will ease the pain she is feeling."We stood outside the ward Diane was in. I nodded, but I still felt anxious as I watched Diane writhe in pain on the bed. I stepped inside and sat beside her. Each shallow breath she took reminded me how close I was to losing her. After the blood transfusion, her health progressed a little, but she was still in pain. At least she could sit in a wheelchair now, even if she couldn’t walk. Seeing her like this made me want to protect her with my life.I couldn't wait to crown her as my Luna. We were childhood sweethearts and I held her dear to my heart. We had to break up since she was leaving the Pack to further her education. It broke me completely.Since she returned, she brought a peace to my heart that I didn’t know I was missing. Her presence calmed the chaos in my life. I knew Evelyn was trying hard to win my heart. I saw her efforts in cooking

    EVEYLNNo matter how hard I try, I can’t remember what happened last night. It feels like trying to solve a puzzle with missing pieces. But one thing is clear, I woke up feeling hands on me, my pussy aching and I was completely naked. How did that happen?The only thing I clearly remember is that I was with Elena. After that, everything is a blur. I think John might’ve come over, but I’m not sure.I paced around the room, my heart pounding. I grabbed my phone and checked the time. My stomach dropped when I saw five missed calls and a bunch of unread messages all from Elena.With shaky hands, I hesitated before opening one of her messages.She kept asking where I was, saying she had been looking for me. But it was her last message that made my heart skip a beat."I'm sorry, but it looks like John had another drink with you. Please stay safe I think he was forcing himself on you, and I can't find you."I read the message over and over, struggling to make sense of it. No… John wouldn’t

    JOHNI didn’t want to do this with her, not like this, not when we haven't mend our relationship properly.Evelyn was drunk, but it wasn’t just alcohol. There was something else in her system. Something stronger. Elena must have drugged her. But why? To hand her over to Giovanni so he would fuck her? How long has she been betraying Evelyn? Or did Giovanni forced her to this to Eveyln?A bad feeling settled in my gut. Someone was watching us.I closed my eyes, focusing on the air around me. My wolf, Zae, stirred inside me, sharpening my senses. A scent lingered. It was familiar, but I couldn’t place it.Evelyn lay unconscious beneath me. Her breathe was shaking. Her body trembled, even in her sleep. Guilt stabbed at me as I brushed a strand of hair from her face. I should have just left her room right? Fuck.But that scent… it was still here. Someone was nearby. Near the window.My jaw tightened. Should I go after them?I hesitated. I couldn’t leave Evelyn like this, exposed without an

    EVELYNHis eyes didn’t show much, but the way he froze told me everything, I had surprised him.Heat rose from my skin, like fire in the air around me. My hands gripped his collar. His eyes locked onto mine confused, not knowing what to do next.“You need to sleep,” he said softly.He tried to pull my hands away, but I held on tighter. My heart pounded as I leaned in, closing the space between us. Then, without thinking, I pressed my lips to his, desperately. He didn’t move, didn’t kiss me back, but I didn’t stop. Gosh I never knew this whiskey would be this strong. ""Evelyn, you're drunk. You’re not thinking clearly, okay?" John said, his voice low and careful. I could see the tension in his clenched jaw, the way his hands stayed at his sides, refusing to reach for me. He was holding himself back, afraid of making a mistake of taking advantage of me, I'm sure that's what was in his head."John," I spoke in a hushed tone, "if you won't, then I will."Before he could react, I pushed h

    EVEYLN "What? She went that far, and you’re just going to let it slide?" She said in a loud voice as I sighed. I had no idea what to do next. "If I were you," she said, leaning in, her eyes gleaming with mischief and defiance, "I’d march straight to the leader of the women’s group and show her exactly how nasty I can be. Let her see the ‘bitch’ she’s so determined to paint me as." I swirled the whiskey in my glass, watching the amber liquid catch the dim light before taking a quick shot. The burn clawed at my throat, making me wince. It had been a long time since I’d gone out drinking. Tonight, I’d only called Elena, I knew Winnie and her new lover were off having their own fun. "That’s a bit much," I muttered, placing my empty glass on the table. "No wait, what if you just moved into the mansion?" Elena suggested, a sly grin creeping onto her lips. "Think about it. It would be fun. If I were you, I’d make her life a living hell. Give her a taste of her own medicine." A p

    GIOVANNI"I did what you asked. All I want is for you to protect me," he pleaded, his voice shaking.I poured coffee into my cup, a smirk forming on my lips. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Elena sitting cross-legged, laughing wildly. He was kneeling on the floor.For a moment, I thought about pouring the hot coffee on his face, burning away the nerve he had to ask me for anything like that."Is that what I asked from you?" I asked, the smirk on my face growing."Exactly," Elena added, mocking him. She tilted her head, her smirk matching mine. "Did they get anything from you?". She’s definitely enjoying this more than I am.If only John had taught his workers some manners instead of coddling them. Now at the idiot ordering me to do something for him."No, he didn’t. I escaped and ran here," Chino stammered, his voice shaking. But his eyes, those eyes didn’t show the fear I could feel inside of him. Poor soul."Then congratulations, you’re saved!" Elena announced, clapping slowly,

    JOHN"Yes, boss," Andrew muttered. "He was found dead this morning. Luckily, not everyone in the pack saw it."I stared at Chino's lifeless body on the forest floor. Blood trickled from the side of his head, forming a dark pool below him. The wound was obvious, a bullet had gone straight through his skull. Had it been he never escaped he wouldn't have been dead, now look and I have to question him."Any idea who did this?" I asked, my voice tight with anger.Andrew shook his head, his face serious. "My guess? Probably animal hunters.""No," I growled. "Remember I banned all pack members from hunting after that werewolf was killed by mistake. They wouldn’t dare break my rules." "Get the car ready," I said firmly. "We’re going to see someone."Andrew hesitated before speaking. "If you're thinking about meeting Giovanni, he’s not in town right now," he said cautiously."Where did he go?" I asked, narrowing my eyes."I'm not sure," Andrew admitted with a slight shrug. "But his men told

    JOHNI burst into the mansion, my footsteps echoing through the hall. My chest rose and fell as I fought to control the anger threatening to take over. Just as I was about to head straight to Diane’s room, the smell of roasted chicken and herbs drifted from the dining room, catching my attention.Inside, Charles and Vera sat at the table, calmly eating, the quiet clink of their forks against their plates filling the space.I clenched my fists at my sides, forcing myself to stay calm. The anger burned inside me, but I couldn’t let it show. Not yet.“Hey, son, is everything okay?” Vera asked. She turned in her chair, looking at me with concern. My sudden entrance had clearly disrupted their peaceful dinner.“No, Mum,” I bellowed. I stepped closer, scanning the room. “Where’s Diane?”Vera frowned slightly and set down her fork. “She just left,” she said gently. “She said she’d be back this evening. Why do you ask, son? Come and have something to eat.” Was it Aria’s place she went to, or
