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
Evelyn’s POV“God what are you doing? Stop it!” I screamed, rushing forward to pull Asher away.Sid staggered back, quickly caught by Caleb and Nora. “How dare you attack our Alpha!” Nora roared angrily.“I’d even kill him,” Asher growled, his voice cold and menacing.I felt his body tense, and I kn
My heart sank slightly.I hadn’t expected Helena to have such a deep connection to Asher. It did explain her audacity.“If we find evidence against her one day…”“She’ll pay for every bit of it.”It’s a shame we couldn’t hang that woman today. But knowing Asher was on my side was good enough for now
I sighed, rubbed my temples, and sent him off.Then Asher and I took a walk around the construction site. My heart was heavy.“…I don’t think I go to Storm Fang Pack with you,” I sighed.We were supposed to leave together tonight. He was going to formally introduce me to his council and pack members
Evelyn’s POVMy heart skipped a beat. I spun around and ran toward the commotion, everyone else right behind me.Two workers were in the middle of a fistfight. A crowd had formed around them, split into two groups, both shouting at each other and cursing. It was total chaos.I was furious. “Stop it!
I winced, a little embarrassed. “This wasn’t how I wanted you to find out…”“I knew he’s after you,” he gritted, his voice dark with anger. “If I hadn’t heard it today, how long were you planning on keeping it from me?”I had planned to hide it forever. But saying that would just make him madder, so
Evelyn’s POVSid left.He said he’d get back to Emerald Howl Pack immediately to find out the truth about my parents and give Asher and me some time to talk.We sat by the window, and I couldn’t stop my tears from falling. The truth I’d just learned felt like a knife carving a hole in my chest.“God
I remember when I was around six or seven, one day my father had a huge fight with Eason. He was a teenager at the time. I was hiding in the bedroom, trembling in fear, when they roared and smashed things in the living room. I heard Eason shouted words like “irresponsible” and “bastard,” and then my
Evelyn’s POVWhen I woke up again, my throat felt hoarse, my whole body ached, like I'd been run over by a truck.But that painful heat had completely disappeared. I turned over and lay flat on the bed, staring at the ceiling as a silly smile appeared on my face.I could still feel Asher’s seed war

The maids wiped my body, trying to cool me down, but it didn’t help. The heat wouldn’t go away. It only burned worse, leaving me gasping for air. Just then, I heard the door crash open, followed by the sound of quick footsteps, shouts, and the sound of bodies pushing. “FUCK! Why didn’t anyone tell
Evelyn’s POVThings have been so crazy lately that I even forgot it was time for my once-a-year heat. And what’s worse, this is the first time I’ve been in heat without a mate. My body’s getting hotter and hotter, like it’s on fire. Every inch of my skin felt like it’s being scorched. The heat ins
