Evelyn's POVI stared at the fire raging in the distance, my whole body frozen.That terrible feeling I’d had earlier saved me. If I’d gone back to the hotel, I’d be trapped in that fire now. That building was seventy or eighty floors, and I was staying near the top. Even as a werewolf, I wouldn’t h
“I’m not the Luna anymore.” I just wanted to help with the rescue, not take over. I would never clear a mess for Tristan and Leah ever again. I’d learnt my lesson.“Please, you’ve seen how bad it is!,” he begged.“But where’s your Alpha?” I asked, frowning. “Why aren’t you asking him?”“Evelyn—YOU B
Evelyn’s POVI didn’t want to let Sid see my vulnerable side, but the moment Asher showed up with his enticing scent around me, I broke completely.“Why…are you only here now?!” I sobbed, clutching at his shirt. “You said you’d be here… Do you have any idea what I’ve been through? You don’t know… yo
I didn’t want to make a scene with her, so I stopped and watched an ambulance taking Tristan and Leah away.“No need to worry, Miss Evelyn,” said one of the soldiers that rescued Tristan. “We got to him in time. He’ll make it.”“…Thank you,” I forced a weak smile.I didn’t understand why Tristan had
Evelyn’s POVHelena visibly tensed up.“I-I heard you were going to be on the battlefield longer than expected. So I came here early to make sure nothing went wrong with the project. Yes, I went against your order, but I only did it what’s good for us and the project…”“Lies!” I cut her off without
Asher’s eyes narrowed, his expression turning even colder, with a hint of disgust.“I hate being threatened.”“Not a threat. It’s clear you no longer trust your CFO to the point where I can’t even request a private conversation with you. There’s no point in me staying here.” She gave a bitter laugh.
Asher’s POV“Sending Evelyn out won’t change a damn thing.” My voice was cold, with a sharp edge of anger.Honestly, Helena insisting that Evelyn leave pissed me off. I knew Evelyn had trust issues. And it’s understandable after what her cheating ex-husband put her through. I’d been working hard to
If she were my mate, things would be so much easier.“Asher, let me help you,” Helena said, her voice trembling. “Your hand needs to be bandaged—”“Shut up!” I snapped, my eyes glowing red. “Say one more thing to come between Evelyn and me, and I’ll make sure you regret it.”Her eyes widened, fillin
“I still think this is a horrible idea,” Dorian groaned as we got ready. “If people find out that the Alpha’s sister and the future Luna are involved in a crime like this…”“They will praise us for taking out the bad guy of the city,” I said as I cocked the gun and tested the sight. “Where’s Asher b
Evelyn’s POV“Weakness?” Dorian looked a little wary. “Why do you want to know that?”“Holland’s been causing me trouble, and I need to teach him a lesson. Are you going to help me or are you going to side with the elders?”Dorian hesitated, not answering right away. Haley nudged him hard on the sho
I was still debating with those 2 options when a car pulled into the garden and slowly drove up to me.It stopped in front of me, and when the window rolled down, I recognized a face I really didn’t expect to see here.“Well, well, well, check it out. Who is soaking like a drowned rat? The future Lu
Evelyn’s POVMaria gave me the address and left. A couple minutes later, Asher finished his visit at the cemetery and came down, so I told him all about my little chat with her.His face darkened almost immediately, “Maria overstepped. She’s just an elder. She’s not allowed to assign you tasks. I’ll
We stopped in front of two black headstones. The engraving read: Here lie Jane and Soth Montrose. Your courage and loyalty will never be forgotten.Asher stared at the gravestones for a long moment, then gently brushed the dust off them.“They were my parents’ guards,” he said quietly. “When I was j
Evelyn’s POVThe council chamber was dead silent. I knew the elders didn’t want to accept me as their Luna, but after Asher just demoted a senior member to omega, they also knew anyone who angered him wouldn’t have a good ending.“So? Cat got your tongue?” Asher pressed, his voice cold and sharp.Th
“Not at all. It just proves she’s a failure,” Dorian said flatly.“Exactly. And I’ve heard the stories—you throw your soldiers into danger without a plan, then replace the dead with fresh recruits. You traded their lives for that badge. How dare you even call it yours?!”Helena’s makeup ran in strea
Evelyn’s POV“…It was a close vote,” Holland said nervously. “But in the end, the council decided to let General Helena stay as a member of Storm Fang Pack.”He couldn’t even look Asher in the eye while saying it. The whole room was tense, with everyone avoiding Asher’s glare.How pathetic. I though
Helena shot her a disdainful look, “Bullshit. You’re just jealous of me, like Evelyn. You can’t stand that a woman like me has earned this level of respect, so the first chance you get, you try to drag me down. Pathetic bitches.”The female elder’s face turned red with anger. “Oh, so any criticism f
