Bitterness filled my chest. I hated this man, but he was a good father. Maybe if we’d had children of our own, things would’ve turned out differently.“The answer is no,” I said softly. “Even if you sent Leah away, I wouldn’t come back. We’re over.”Without another word, I walked out of his hospital
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
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
His hand came down to my cheat and yanked off my bra. My boobs bounced right out, he grasped one, his thumb circling my nipple. I gasped, feeling my nipple harden almost immediately, a jolt of electricity running through my body.Now Every fiber of me was screaming in excitement was his touch. I wan
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
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 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 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
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
