EVELYNI froze, my heart racing as his words sank in. I swallowed down my saliva as a bitter scoff escaping his lips, and I couldn’t help but stare, confusion clouding my mind.“Could you… could you explain how that even happened?” I stammered, my voice barely above a whisper. The doctor sighed, rubbing the back of his neck like the memory was still pressing on him. “Alpha John almost destroyed my life,” he began, blinking his eyes as he continued . “He wouldn’t leave me alone. Kept hounding me, demanding to know where you were. Said I was the last person to see you.”Jeez... This is about John?I blinked, trying to process his words. “But how does that lead to you almost… losing your job?” I asked, my voice steadying just enough.“He threatened me,” the doctor admitted, his voice dropping. “Said he’d have my license revoked. He’d ruin me if I didn’t tell him what he wanted to know. It was relentless , that I was scared at a point that he might threaten me with my family. I couldn’t
JOHN "And you're absolutely sure you didn’t talk to any worker while you were there?" Beta Andrew asked, his eyes narrowing as he leaned forward. I nodded. "Yeah, I’m sure," I muttered, my voice tight. He sighed, running a hand through his hair. "Man, this is so damn hectic," he said, shaking his head as he stared at me.A storm of anger churned inside me, so fierce it felt like it might tear me apart. How could this have happened? I was so close, so close to getting through to her, to bridging that distance between us. But then this had to happen. A memory slammed into me like a knife to the chest. Giovanni, his hand on her face, wiping away her tears—or whatever it was sliding down her cheek. The image burned in my mind. How dare he touch her? Who the hell is he to do that? And for how long has this been going on? I couldn’t sit still, everything that had happened today pressed down on me, suffocating me as I paced back and forth in the lobby, Beta Andrew sat on the couch, wa
EVELYN POVGiovanni and I sat on the couch in the principal's office, on his table it was the little statue of moon goddess and a pile of files on top of each other on his table and on his shelf. The man had just come in from outside, still looking slightly disoriented. When he noticed Giovanni who was sitting down beside me, his eyes widened for a moment, but then he shrugged it off and took a seat across from us.The woman who had accused us was also there, sitting stiffly across from me. She shot me an angry look, her glare sharp enough to make me roll my eyes."We’ve received reports that your children have been causing a lot of trouble at this school..." The principal began,Before he could finish, the woman cut him off sharply. "Exactly! Her kids need to be expelled, or else this school will be stained with disgrace. It’ll be a shame if the school does nothing to protect the safety of the other students!"The middle-aged man who I assumed was the principal, smirked at her words.
EVELYN“Shut your mouth!” she hissed. “I don’t know what you’re trying to do, but stop making things worse for her. How can you be so cruel to an innocent little girl?”I scoffed, barely able to believe what I was hearing. A bitter smirk twisted my lips as I muttered under my breath, “Cruel, huh? That’s rich coming from you.”Just then, my phone rang. I glanced at the screen, it was John. I hissed under my breath, quickly rejecting the call before turning on “Do Not Disturb.”Why’s he bothering me now?"If you don’t accept," Giovanni began, "then, in case you’re unaware, we have another piece of proof, a certain proof, that you’re lying. And that your daughter here is the real bully." His sharp gaze locked onto her as he raised an eyebrow. "If you can’t even bring your child here in the presence of the principal, then how do you expect us to believe your so-called proof is authentic?" I blinked, my breath hitching as Giovanni’s words lingered in the mind. My mind raced. What proof?
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 POVI ended the call abruptly and tossed my phone onto the cluttered surface of my office desk. My heart pounded as I scanned the room, the muffled hum of voices from outside reminding me of the chaos waiting just beyond these walls. The reporters were everywhere, circling the building, desperate for answers. I had no choice but to stay hidden."How on earth did the media find out about this?" I muttered, crossing my arms tightly over my chest. My pacing filled the room with the soft echo of hurried footsteps from me.Simone, leaning casually against the doorframe, raised a skeptical eyebrow. "But you were there yesterday, weren’t you?" I stopped in my tracks, shaking my head firmly. "I wasn’t there. But..." My voice trailed off. "But what Evelyn? I don't want them to create a bad impression of you, you are supposed to make sure that security measures must be followed!" Simone pressed, his tone sharpening as he straightened up, watching me closely.And then it hit me. John ha
JOHN POV The words hit me like a lightening struck. My grip on the phone tightened, my knuckles turning white. My mind raced, Evelyn’s face flashing before me again—her smile, her laugh, her everything. And also the twins... Most especially Harry because I spent some time with him but there isn't any resemblance between us or was it because I didn't care enough to check very well?My kids? My kids? The weight of it settled in my chest, pulling me under. I couldn’t breathe, placing my hands on my chest."Don't worry, I would still verify if this is true Alpha John, just leave it to me"My eyes widened as Andrew’s words playing in my mind. It felt like someone had punched the breath out of me. "Was it not the same lady you called barren? How the could they be your kids John?" Zae muttered in my mind as he hissed, though I don't know if he was angry or disappointed at me because he wasn't in support of all things Ill things I did to Evelyn.My chest tightened, my jaw slackened, and fo
EVELYN POV I stood outside her window, the cold night air brushing against my skin. My eyes softened as I watched her, curled up and fast asleep, like a porcelain doll. The moonlight danced across her peaceful face, and for a moment, I forgot to breathe. She was perfect, my future Luna. How I wished I could step inside, just to be closer. But I couldn’t. The door was locked, and Bea, the one person I trusted to help me, was nowhere to be found. Even she was asleep. I clenched my fists. "How could she ignore my calls?" I muttered under my breath, after everything I paid her to handle this, she knows I’d show up tonight. She knows how important this is to me.My gaze flickered back to her, guilt creeping into my chest. She looked so fragile, so innocent, and yet here I was, standing outside like a thief in the shadows. I let out a shaky breath. Of course, she’s tired, I whispered to myself, the words heavy with regret. After what I did at the bar…I ran a hand through my hair, the mem
EVELYNEverything felt like it was spiraling out of control, and I couldn’t take it anymore. I turned, ready to flee the suffocating space of the bathroom, but his hand shot out and grabbed me. A sharp wave of disgust rippled through me, his touch making my skin crawl. My fists clenched at my sides, breaking his bones didn’t seem like such a bad idea right now.“Get your hands off me!” I snapped, twisting in his grip, but his arm wrapped tighter around my waist, pinning me in place. I struggled, yanking at his hand, but he wouldn’t let go.His breath brushed against my ear, sending an unwelcome shiver down my spine. “Do you know how much it healed me to know you recognized my perfume scent?” he murmured, his voice low and honeyed, almost seductive. But I stood my ground to to fall for it even though the alcohol was betraying me."Why weren't you at the construction site, Ms. Xavier?" he asked, his smirk curling into something devilish. The sound of that awful name made my stomach chur
EVELYN POV I couldn't understand why this was happening, why she was accusing my daughter without any real evidence. The only thing she pointed to was the mark on the middle of her head.“Mummy, please... I really love this school. I don’t want to leave,” my daughter whispered loudly as she rested her head on my shoulder.Her words hit me hard. It was the only thing keeping me from pulling them out of that awful school. How could anyone love a place like this? But I couldn’t bear to see my child upset. I was the kind of mother who would do anything to make my kids happy, whatever it took.And let me tell you, my dearest child won’t be the one facing the Anti-Bullying Committee. Oh no. I’ll make sure her child does instead. That evening, I found myself at Mr. Simone’s exclusive bar, the kind of place reserved for only the most select guests. The dim lighting cast a warm glow over the polished mahogany counters, and the low soft music filled the room. I had dragged Winnie, my ever-lo
