I clenched my teeth and locked eyes with her, icy fury rising in my chest.Stay calm. Don’t let her get to you.“A waste of time? I don’t think so. You are here yourself, and that proves its value,” I shot back, calling her bluff.Her smile turned to a scowl.“You once said your board would never ap
Evelyn's POVBrother?I had to clench my fists to hold myself back from leaping out of my chair."You're Alpha Johnson’s son?" Sid asked through gritted teeth. His whole body was tensed, clearly on edge.The blonde man gave us a cold, uninterested look, as if we were nothing but some roaches, unwort
"STOP!" Helena screamed.The golden-brown giant wolf ignored the guns, snarling at Claude under the wreckage. Just as the wolf was about to bite down, I cried out, "Sid—WAIT!"I staggered to my feet, my face burning with pain, blood filling my mouth. But the physical pain didn’t matter—it was the hu
Evelyn’s POVThe next morning, I woke up early to get ready. I slipped into the white silk gown I had brought specifically for the groundbreaking ceremony. The strapless neckline showed off my collarbones, and the high-low hem—short in the front and trailing like butterfly wings in the back—added a
“Finding seats,” I said, scanning the room.The venue was filled with round tables, each marked with name cards. We needed to find us a place to sit. Standing around when the ceremony started would make us far too conspicuous.I moved cautiously, looking for an opportunity to swap out a couple of na
Evelyn's POVHe recognized me.I froze for a few seconds, then slowly turned to face him. His face darkened, coldly glaring at me without a word."So, what now?" I asked with a hint of mockery. "Are you going to tell everyone I'm here, or just have security throw me out?""Both options sound good to
"That is irrelevant. Just tell me what you think."He hesitated again, falling into silence. I scoffed, all the fleeting sympathy I’d felt evaporating."You want both of us, don’t you? Who do you think you are? The king? Or the fucking god? Stay the fuck away from me, or I’ll tell Leah that her husb
When I told him about finding our father, his whole face twisted with rage.“He’s—he’s alive?!” Eason roared.“He was,” I said coldly. “He died in the explosion.”I killed that monster with my own hands. Finally avenging the two abandoned children we used to be.“But now you understand, don’t you?”
Evelyn’s POV“…Eason?” I muttered in disbelief. “What are you doing here?”Out here in the middle of nowhere, I thought I was as good as dead. But someone actually came for me. And not just anyone—my brother.His expression twisted with anger, like my question personally offended him. “You’d be dead
Evelyn’s POVAs soon as I made up my mind to go back, I didn’t want to waste another second. Asher was still out there, alone and surrounded by enemies. I couldn’t rest until I found him.Cyrus worked fast. Overnight, he got everything ready—transportation, supplies, and a route that would take us t
He reached out, twirling a strand of my hair around his fingers. His beautiful gray eyes glimmered with something playful. “So, what do you say? I like you. I have a thing for women who drive Alphas crazy.”I rolled my eyes and tugged my hair free from his grip. “Not funny.”His smirk faltered. “I c
Evelyn’s POVI… I’m pregnant?I stood frozen, staring blankly as my hand slowly pressed against my stomach. My mind was a crazy mess.Asher and I had many sex, but we never used protection. I never really thought I’d get pregnant. Maybe it was because our mate bond wasn’t normal. Some part of me ass
A frustrated growl ripped from my throat. “Then what do you suggest?”“You still got Carnival City. Go back and focus on your work. Get yourself more leverage before returning to the table. Or just return to Emerald Howl Pack. Storm Fang Pack is a mess, and honestly? It’s out of your league.”He wan
Evelyn’s POVCyrus let out a dry laugh. “This woman is something else. Honestly, she might be even more dangerous than Leah.”I clenched my fists, staring at the TV as the interview continued.“Luna Selene, where is Alpha Asher now? Can you tell us about his condition?” a reporter asked.Luna.What
His smirk remained, but his eyes were like ice.“And you, Leah,” he continued, his voice quiet but sharp, “I don’t recall ever allowing you anywhere near this room. You disobeyed my orders.”Leah flinched under his stare, her lips trembling. “Why shouldn’t I be here? I’m your mate! Is this how you t
Evelyn’s POVPain.It hurt so much I felt like I was splitting apart. I couldn’t control my body, like I was sinking deeper into a pool of thick mud.‘Wake up, girl.’ Elin’s voice echoed in my mind, firm and urgent. ‘Now’s not the time to sleep. We still have things to do.’Right. We had things to d
