DIANE POV

“Huh? What… what do you mean?” I stammered, my voice shaky as I noticed the smirk forming on her lips.

Someone suddenly grabbed my arm, making me jump. I turned and saw Aria. Her face was serious, and she gave a small shake of her head, a quiet warning in her eyes.

“Don’t worry,” Evelyn said smoothly, sounding full of confidence. I looked back at her, and she met my eyes with a playful glint. “You’ll understand soon enough. Want to know why?” She paused, making the moment feel longer. “Let’s make the rumors true.”

Evelyn put her hands on her hips, tilted her head, and smiled wider, daring me to say something.

How could she say that?

“Look, let’s go, okay?” she said firmly.

I didn’t want to leave. I was about to say no, but before I could, she shook her head and held my arm tighter. Without waiting for my answer, she started pulling me forward. I hesitated, but my feet gave in and followed her. She led me out of the woods, her strong will pushing past my reluctance, while I w

A gunshot rang out as she squeezed her eyes shut.When she opened them again, her breath came in a sharp gasp, surprise that she was alive. She turned around, her gaze hard and burning.“Next time, I won’t miss,” Giovanni said coldly. “Evelyn doesn’t deserve to get hurt again and if she does...”Diane blinked. “Are you fucking kidding me?” she blurted out, stunned by his words.But then it hit her, he wasn’t just angry. He cared. He cared about Evelyn and that's the main reason he agreed to work with her on getting Eveyln and John separated.Without another word, Giovanni turned and walked away, leaving Diane speechless.

    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

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

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

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

    DIANE POV"Damn it, I missed again," I muttered, frustrated, as I threw the bow to the ground.Aria bent down to pick it up, moving carefully, almost like she was unsure. "Haven't you hurt her enough already?" she said sharply. "You've been making her suffer. Maybe it's time to let her be."I turned to John, clenching my jaw. He was the reason the arrow missed and hit the tree instead of her. He was always hanging around her, never giving her space. And Aria thought I was the one who needed to back off?"Let’s just go home. You know this is the Pack witch’s territory, she might notice," Aria said, her voice low and urgent as she slipped her hand into mine. We walked away without saying anything else."But there’s no way she survived that car crash!" I said, my voice rising in anger. I ran my hands through my hair, trying to make sense of it all. "She should be in the hospital or something, barely hanging on."Aria let out a soft chuckle, which only made me more annoyed."Instead of ob

    EVEYLN“Don’t you want to go inside and rest?” Winnie asked gently, her voice filled with worry.I let out a long sigh and closed my eyes. A cool breeze brushed against my skin, carrying the earthy smell of the forest. It felt peaceful, just what I needed. I took a deep breath, filling my lungs, then slowly opened my eyes.I shook my head and looked at Winnie, choosing not to acknowledge John walking quietly next to me.“I’m okay, really,” I said with a smile. “I just want to walk a little. And now that Harry’s curse won't affect anytime soon and he can control his shifting... that’s more than enough to help me feel at peace.” “You’re right. At least now he can go to school without being bullied for it,” Winnie said.I nodded slowly, glancing at her as she exchanged a quick look with John. Honestly, she wasn’t very good at hiding whatever was going on between them, it showed clearly on her face. John, on the other hand, kept looking straight ahead, his face calm and hard to read. But

    "Hey! Let go of my hair!" she shouted, struggling to break free. She scratched at his arm, but he didn’t let go.John smirked as he finally pulled his hand away from her hair in a roughly manner.She stepped back, breathing hard. Her hands shook as she fixed her hair, her eyes burning with anger. "What’s the point of bringing up the past when you’ve already ruined the future?"John gave a dry laugh, hands stuffed in his pockets. "If you want to know why the future fell apart, shouldn’t you start by looking at what went wrong in the past?"She looked him over, her voice cold. "Wasn’t it already stopped?""You stopped because you found out I’m the heir to the Silvermoon Pack," he blurted out. "If I didn’t have power, if I were just some nobody you would’ve kept going, wouldn’t you?"She gave a dry laugh, putting her hands on her hips like she didn’t care, even though his words were true."I don’t care about the past, alright?" she snapped.

I can't wait to expose him, but first, I need proof so everyone will believe me and I'll make sure Giovanni proves it himself.I have to use my claws to tear the ropes and escape his Pack. I need to see my son and keep teaching him how to control his shift, especially since he's so young and determined to learn. Plus, the ritual is happening this evening. When I arrived at the Pack Witch’s place, I froze, seeing that we have guests here. I saw Giovanni. My fists clenched on instinct, heat rushing to my face. But then I noticed something, his eyes. They were shifting nervously, and his posture was tense, like he was being watched.The Pack Witch stood in front of him, her sharp eyes locked on him like a predator cornering its prey. It looked like she was questioning him. When our eyes met, Giovanni’s shoulders dropped, and he let out a quiet sigh of relief.If Winnie and Evelyn hadn’t

    EVEYLN“Daddy!” Harry yelled, his voice echoing through the cave. He jumped up and ran to John as soon as he walked in. Hugging him tightly.I rolled my eyes. Of course.The room felt tense, like there was electricity in the air. She kept asking questions about John to him like he held him and he looked just as confused as I felt. I couldn’t blame him, if someone asked me such weird questions, I’d be lost too.“Traffic was terrible today. That’s why I’m late,” John muttered. He spoke to the Pack witch, who slowly nodded.I watched John for a moment. He kept looking at Giovanni. Giovanni noticed and scoffed, giving a small sneer before turning away to stare at something across the cave. Now that John was finally here, I thought maybe we could start the ritual and hope it would all go smoothly.I didn’t even look at John. I was too focused on Harry, Giovanni, and my friend Winnie. They felt more important at the moment or maybe it was just easier than dealing with everything else.Harr

    EVEYLN “You want to fire Bea?” Winnie asked, surprised, as she poured orange juice into my glass.A warm breeze moved through the patio, lifting her hair while the golden sunset was gradually fading. I sighed and reached for my glass on the table.“I’m not sure,” I said, slowly swirling the juice. “But something about her just feels… off.”“Off? Just like that?” Winnie frowned and moved her chair closer to mine, its legs sliding softly on the wooden deck. She looked at me carefully. I looked around, my eyes landing on the house. Giovanni might still be inside with Harriet. I then remembered his red knuckles that I noticed when I was in the hospital. Had he gotten into a fight or something?“What do you think about her?” I asked, breaking the silence.“Me?” Winnie blinked and pointed at herself like she was surprised. I nodded.“She’s a good woman,” she said firmly, leaning back in her chair. “You’ve seen how she takes care of your kids. You better stop thinking like that.”I sighed
