EVELYN POV

Even after all this time, coming back to this pack still stirs something deep inside me, a connection I wish I didn’t have. It feels like the ground remembers me. Leaving wasn’t easy. Even with Harriet in the hospital, it took me two days to pack. I made time because I had no choice. This wasn’t just another visit, it was something I couldn’t ignore. My Harry was in danger.

Ahead, John’s car led the way, winding through familiar roads. He insisted on taking the lead, and I let him. Not because I didn’t remember the way I did but because he needed to feel in control. So I stayed quiet and let him.

From the backseat, I caught glimpses of pack members turning their heads, trying to see into my car. The tinted windows kept me hidden. But I could feel their curiosity pressing against the glass, their need to know who had come with their Alpha.

We stopped in front of a villa, a two-story building with walls so polished they looked newly built. The place felt untouched, like no on

    EVEYLNI sighed and rolled my eyes as I started up the stairs. He followed closely behind, carrying Harriet in his arms. His grin widened, and for some reason, it made my chest feel heavy. When he asked me that question, I knew it wasn’t true—but still, I couldn’t bring myself to deny it. Why couldn’t I just tell him the real reason?Beta Andrew reached the top of the stairs and opened the first door. “Here we are,” he said, stepping inside.I followed him in. The room was spotless, with a neatly made bed and crisp sheets tucked perfectly in place. At least I wouldn’t have to worry about cleaning just unpacking and putting our clothes away in the cupboard.Bea wouldn’t be here until later, she’d told me earlier she had some things to take care of.Just as I opened my bag and started pulling out clothes to hang in the cupboard, my phone rang.I glanced at the screen and saw Elena’s name. A small smile tugged at my lips as I answered."Hey, babe! Where are you?" she asked curiously. "Be

    EVEYLNThe moment we arrived at the villa, we rushed toward the commotion at the gate. Six men stood there, their tense stances making it clear they weren’t welcome. The guards had blocked their path, refusing to let them in.One was about to enter like he was trying again but the guard their shook his head, his hands still spread across the gate.Andrew stepped forward, his voice sharp. "And who the hell are you?" he demanded, eyes narrowing as we got closer.The men didn’t back down, but their heated glares bore down to those guards. I studied their faces carefully, and then it hit me, I recognized one of them. As if sensing it, they all shifted their attention to me, lowering their heads in respect. Not to John, who stood tall beside me, but to me alone."They say they’re from the NightShade Pack, Alpha," one of John’s warriors said, his tone laced with sarcasm, meanwhile John scoffed like he understood what the situation was. Of course, I already knew too that they were here beca

    GIOVANNIAfter the meeting with Diane, I stormed out and as I reached my car, I slammed my hands onto the hood, the metal shuddering. Her smug little speech about her new plans echoed in my head, each word grating on my nerves like nails on a chalkboard."How the hell did she find out?" I muttered through clenched teeth, my voice sharp with anger. I glanced around the parking lot, my mind racing. Who told her? Does she have someone feeding her information?The thought made my blood boil. She was always one step ahead, always pulling strings I didn’t even know existed.Straightening up, I clenched my fists, a slow smirk creeping onto my lips. What can I use against her? How do I make sure she never tries to control me again?I shook my head, my jaw tightening. No one controls me, I growled, the fire inside me burning hotter. I’m Alpha Giovanni. I control and I don’t get controlled.I pulled into my private garage at the Pack, shutting off the engine. The low hum faded.Carlo came rushi

    EVEYLNThe strong, scent of herbs and burning incense filled the air as we stepped into the Pack Witch’s cavern. It was filled with old skulls, bones and oil carrying the echoes of old rituals and quiet prayers to the Moon Goddess. This was a sacred place where sacrifices were made, secrets were shared, and the pack sought guidance from forces beyond our understanding.John and I sat on a long, worn bench, the softness of hare fur beside us. He leaned in and murmured, suggesting we summon her instead. I shook my head, firm. "No, we go to her. That’s how it’s done." As Alpha, he had the power to command otherwise, but tradition still mattered to me, at least.The old woman’s sharp eyes locked onto my son like daggers. He kept his head down, avoiding her stare. I could understand what he was feeling at that moment, the unease. It wasn’t surprising, there was something unsettling about the Pack Witch’s gaze, her brows furrowed but her eyes were wide.Pack witch's eyes are always like tha

    EVEYLN John’s face went stiff the moment he saw her outside. It was obvious he hadn’t expected her to be there. Diane’s eyes found me first then her expression twisted, like she was surprised to see even my figure here since John didn't tell her about my coming to this Pack, before it hardened into anger. Her hands clenched into fists at her sides.She opened her mouth to say something, but before she could, a feminine voice spoke from behind her.“What’s going on out here? Come inside.”A middle-aged woman stepped into view, her diamond earrings catching the light. She had the kind of quiet authority that made it clear she was used to being listened to. Her sharp eyes flicked to Diane, who immediately softened, her expression shifting just enough to look composed.“Yes… Mum,” Diane said, her voice suddenly sweet and controlled. “It’s nothing, really. I just saw John outside with… her.” She gestured toward me, forcing a smile. “I guess I got a little upset.”The woman, John’s mother,

    JOHNWhat did she even mean by that?"How is it too much?" Charles asked as he drank water from the glass cup and yes he was right about it."I'm just trying to help Eveyln" Diane barely looked up as she replied, she was a bit offended with what he said. "Because if she’s surrounded by controversy, it’s going to affect you and your campaign." Her fork clinked softly against her plate.I glanced at Evelyn. She looked tense, her jaw tight, but she kept eating, like she was trying to pretend the conversation wasn’t annoying her."Alright, that's enough," I snapped but in a low voice . "He was asking her, not you."Diane lifted her head, meeting my eyes with a concern laced in her voice. "I’m just worried about my father-in-law. That’s not wrong, is it?" Her voice was light, like she needed someone to tell her it was okay. The dinning room fell silent for a moment, the only sound coming from the quiet clinking of cutlery. I watched my mum, her gaze fixed on Evelyn as she ate.Then, fina

    EVEYLNMy mind raced, desperate for an excuse to leave. I shouldn’t have come here in the first place, and now there were only thirty minutes left until my son’s ritual. Time was slipping away too fast."Your kids… they’re Alpha John’s, aren’t they?" she asked.I froze, my eyes widened as I stared at her, completely shocked by her question. My plate was half empty and suddenly, I had no appetite at all."I knew it," she muttered, spinning her wine before placing the glass down with a quiet clink."So that’s why you joined this pack? To be with John?" she pressed, her gaze locked onto mine."No!" I blurted out, shaking my head. She couldn’t be more wrong. "I didn't join this Pack, like I said earlier...""If John asked you to rejoin this pack, would you?" she asked with a soft voice. but her eyes studied me closely."With all due respect, ma’am, I’ve moved on," I said, keeping my voice as calm as possible.

    JOHN I tried to steady my breathing, but my thoughts were racing like a storm. Elvis had been shot with an arrow, and deep down, I knew Giovanni was responsible. The thought made my chest tighten. Once this ritual was over, I would find him no matter what.“Sacred smoke, cleanse my spirit. As you rise, take away the darkness around me. Fill me with your light and pure presence,” the Pack Witch said in an old voice with her eyes closed and her hands spread apart as the fragrant smoke curled into the air. This cleansing prayer was the first step of the ritual, an important part before any magic could begin.“Where is she?” she asked sharply, her eyes scanning the cold, shadowy clearing as the trees rustled in the wind.I sighed."Continue the ritual without her. She might not come at all… or she’ll be late," I said quietly, folding my hands in front of me. My head was bowed, my voice was shaking and my heart as I stood near Harry.He lay motionless on the wooden structure designed to l

    EVEYLN The first thing I did that morning was rush to the hospital to see her. My chest tightened as I pushed open the door to her room, empty. The bed was made and she was gone.Panic bubbled in my throat, but then I saw it, a small folded note left on the table beside the bed. My fingers trembled as I picked it up."Thank you for risking your life to save me, Ms. I’ll escape and break everything. Please don’t come looking for me."She didn’t even sign her name. No clue, no hint of who she really was.Clearly, she didn’t want me to find her.Maybe John was right. Maybe I should just let it go. Honestly, I never would’ve imagined that a man as respected as Jude could raise someone like Darwin—a twisted, perverted and reckless son who preyed on young girls.But then again, she said her own parents sold her off to him. Maybe they knew exactly what kind of monster Darwin was. Maybe that’s why they handed her over without a second thought.What gets under my skin the most is knowing he

    EVEYLN“Please… don’t worry about me,” she said softly, her voice barely above a whisper. “Thank you for saving me, but…”Her voice cracked. Then, as if the weight of everything she’d been holding in finally broke loose, she began to cry. This had an effect on me as I had to fight the sting in my own eyes.“My life… it’s only going to get worse from here,” she choked out.I looked at her, helpless.Goddess, what can I possibly do to ease this young girl's pain?I didn’t even know her story. But the sorrow in her eyes told me more than words ever could, she’d been through hell. She was beautiful, short golden hair and eyes wide and soft like a doe’s. I didn’t want to bother her with questions. She’d been through enough and she needs rest. So, I let it go for now.“We’ll come back tomorrow, to check up on you,” I whispered to myself as we quietly left.A few hours later, I still couldn’t sleep.We had returned to the mansion, where everything was quiet. Even the troublemaker was asleep

    JOHN“Let’s leave,” I urged her, reaching for her arm.But she pulled away, shaking her head hard. Her finger shot toward a crowded spot in the distance, eyes wide with urgency.“We have to save that girl first, John,” she said, voice trembling.I turned to Solomon. He caught my look and gave a quick nod as he’d heard Evelyn too, and he understood.A rough voice barked behind me. “You twat! Do you even know what you’ve done?”Three men stood there, rage burning in their eyes. One of them clutched his hand, blood dripping between his fingers. I glanced down at my claws, one of his fingers lay at my feet. “Fuuuck! What are you?” the man screamed, his voice breaking from pain and fear.My claws was sharper than any freshly-forged blade, than any normal Alpha wolf because of the special features I was brought up with. One hard strike was all it took to kill.The air was filled with an overwhelming mix of blood, sweat, moans, sperm and too many creatures. Vampires. Hybrids. Strong wolves.

    "She's still not answering, and she's not in the club either," Solomon said, letting out a sigh.John’s chest was beating. A strange feeling crawled over him, like something wasn’t right with Eveyln. He couldn’t shake the urge to go find her. "She probably took a taxi home," Solo added, scanning the area.John's eyes swept the street, and then he froze. There it was, the car he dreaded to see. Giovanni’s.His heart skipped a beat."Maybe... she’s with Giovanni," he muttered under his breath."But we've checked everywhere. They're not inside," Solomon said, glancing around with uncertainty in his eyes.That was when a chilling thought gripped John, a terrifying 'what if' that twisted in his gut as he remembered how Elena and Giovanni drugged her so that he would take advantage of her. Without a word, he pushed into the club, his pace quickening as he stormed down the hall lined with private rooms.He started throwing doors open one after another."Boss, you got to slow down, we might

    WARNING: SOME CONTENT MIGHT BE TOO DARK. The girls exchanged a glance, hesitant, their eyes flicking back to the card in her hand. “We can’t,” one of the girls said quickly, shaking her head. “The bartender is the one who’s supposed to direct you.” With a mysterious smile, she dipped her head and slipped out of the restroom, leaving Evelyn standing there with more questions than answers. Evelyn exhaled shakily and made her way to the bar. She placed the card carefully on the counter, its glossy surface catching the dim light. The bartender’s eyes widened the moment he saw it. He snatched it up, glancing left and right as if to make sure no one else had seen. Not a single word passed between them. Evelyn stayed silent, her pulse thudding in her ears. Without explanation, the man disappeared into the kitchen. Moments later, a female bartender took his place, wiping the counter as if nothing had happened. Evelyn blinked, confused. “Where’s the other bartender?” The woma

    UNIQUE CLUBHOUSEGiovanni lounged on the couch, a glass of expensive wine cradled in his hand. In front of him, two naked bodies having sex as the lady's legs were widely spread apart, moaning out loud, but he barely wasn't even enjoying the show displayed at his front. His grip tightened on the glass, knuckles pale, eyes shut tight. Evelyn’s voice echoed in his mind. Her words from earlier clung to him like smoke.“You seem stressed, Alpha,” came a sultry voice.A woman stepped into view, wearing only a lacy bra and panties that did not cover much of her ass and boobs. She sank onto his lap, her skin warm against his.“I’ve missed you, you know,” she murmured, tracing a slow finger along the bridge of his nose. Her lips formed a pout as she leaned in closer.Giovanni caught her hand mid-motion with his eyes opened. “Is that why you came to my pack? To become a maid?” Giovanni asked, his voice low, almost disbelieving.She nodded with a small, teasing smile. “Of course. It’s been age

    EVEYLN"I..." he stammered, still looking angry. "I'm sorry.""I get why you acted like that, but you went too far."I stood up as I sighed. There was nothing more to say. Nothing I could do to undo the decision and if I could, I wouldn’t think twice.I walked to the car, each step slower than the last. Reaching it, I stopped, resting my hands on the cool metal. A sigh escaped me. I opened the door, ready to slide in, when someone caught my eye.“Wait... is that Mimi?” I shut the car door and started walking in her direction. She was speaking to someone, but my eyes were locked on her alone. My pace quickened—I had to catch up. What was Mimi doing near the palace? More importantly, what was she doing in this Pack at all?"Where are you heading to, ma'am?" I didn’t respond. No point. He would follow me anyway, no matter what I said. Let him.Just then, Mimi turned and began to walk away. A small house stood between us. I picked up my pace, weaving around it quickly, determined not to

    EVEYLN.“The Pack witch just told me everything, Evelyn. It’s best if you stay here,” I shook my head, tightening my jaw. “And since when do you get to make decisions for me, John?”He sighed, running a hand through his hair. “I’m just doing what needs to be done. This is probably where you belong now. I haven’t even taken your things from the Nightshade Pack yet…”“Don’t even start,” I cut in, my arms folding tightly across my chest. “You think it’ll be easy explaining to them why I’m suddenly moving to the Silvermoon Pack? Everything’s happening so fast.”My eyes followed the strangers as they carried box after box into the mansion.I caught John’s gaze as he looked me over from head to toe, a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips.“My shirt suits you,” he said, cocky as ever.I rolled my eyes. “What are you going to say to her?”“She’ll have to accept it,” he replied casually before disappearing into the mansion.I let out a long sigh. This whole thing felt like a bad idea, even

    EVEYLNI tucked the pictures away as he left. Then I slipped into his shirt, I didn't pick Giovanni's call but I will talk to him later, atleast I just meet him before today ends. I walked out of the room with the phone still in my hand.Downstairs, the dining table was already set but no one else had arrived yet. I didn’t bother waiting. Lifting the cover off one of the dishes, I grabbed a spoon and started eating the pankcakes.“This is just so annoying,” a voice snapped from behind.I looked up. Diane was walking into the dining room. Her eyes widened as soon as she saw me and then she let out a loud hiss.“So you can’t wait for everyone else before digging in, huh?” she said, crossing her arms.I paused mid-bite, lowering my spoon.“Sorry,” I mumbled. “I was just really hungry.” She just wants to pick a fight.Diane dropped into the chair across from me, yanking the cover off her plate aggressively. Her cold eyes darted toward me before she stabbed at her food and started eating
