~Ashton's POV~ I was sitting in the car staring at the road in front of me... I don't know where should I go and what should I do. I never felt like this before... I have never been so depressed in my life before... Not even when I got to know I was adopted. This hurts bad... So bad that I don't think I would ever be able to take this feeling out of my heart. Blaze told me how it feels when our mate cheats on us. The pain doesn't feel any less than thousands of ice picks inserted into your heart and acid running down through your veins. It is so painful that it kills you from the inside. Though I didn't feel even a bit of what he told me, still I felt hurt seeing my only woman in someone else's arms in front of me. Never in my worst nightmare, I thought of this happening. She was always mine... Made for me, born for me but now... I had no other option but to see her losing herself in the warmth of someone else. Her body used to loosen up after my touch... The stiffness in he
~Evelyn's POV~ His hands caressed my knee which was exposed to his touch as I was wearing a skirt. I shivered as his rough yet gentle touch gave me butterflies in my stomach while he smiled at me assuring me everything was fine. I want to believe that everything was fine but whatever happened between us in front of Ash wasn't good. How could I be so careless that I forgot we were three in the room, not two? Ash was never ready to accept this mate bond... He never even thought of Jayden and me being in the same room but today he witnessed the worst he could ever see in his worst nightmare. I shouldn't have done this... "He is fine, Evelyn. I know this. I can feel his anger and sadness, not completely but if it's out of control, I can. And he is not at his worst at this moment," Jayden said while caressing my leg. "But it shouldn't have happened in front of him... We both know what he feels about this bond," I said while shaking my head. "I know... But what is done is done
~Evelyn's POV~ It's been almost two hours since I was at Warren's mansion, but I didn't get a chance to talk to Ash even for once. Neither did I get a chance to corner him somewhere where no one would be able to hear us, nor he was giving me his attention. In front of our families and friends, it looked like we both were happy while standing beside each other, but only we knew what was going on inside our hearts and minds. I thought it would be easy after all Ash and I were together without Jayden around us, but it was more difficult than I thought. He was not paying attention to me. Paying attention seemed far different, he was not even sparing me a glance. Never in the thirteen years of our friendship and five years of relationship, he has ever ignored me... this is the first time in eighteen years I have experienced what ignorance feels like. I thought I was in a bad shape and mood after Jayden avoided me, but Ash's ignorance was way worse than that. It pains me when h
***Long chapter ahead***~Ashton's POV~ I would have danced in excitement if this thing had been said before Bambi and I went to California. Exchange of rings after thirty days... I chuckled at how crazy our life is. Now, I am forced to think how crazy it can get with each second passing. We were already having issues with the triangle forming between us, and now, with this marriage angle coming in, I am sure we will be having a burning experience in our lives. I gazed at Bambi's wide eyes and open mouth, and I sighed, her reaction was expected. I don't think I should expect something else from Jayden. He won't be any different than her. "Dad..." Bambi nudged her father in a very low voice, but he just smiled at her and declared our wedding date, which was exactly after thirty days. Her gaze moved towards me for help, but I shrugged while pressing my lips together. I can't say anything in this matter because it was always me who wanted to get married in the first place.
~Jayden's POV~ I have never waited for anyone in my life ever. I always used to be on time for every meeting and if anyone used to delay by even five minutes, I used to walk out of the place. Yes... I hate waiting. And here Ashton is making me wait for freaking twenty minutes. Only the moon goddess knows what is taking so long for him to settle things inside his house. By looking at the number of cars standing outside the mansion, I thought everyone left but I was wrong. "What is it?" I impatiently asked him in our mind link. "One of our guests is badly drunk here and we are trying to get him in the car so the driver can drop him off at his place. Come inside when the car leaves," He said. I groaned while resting my head on the back of the seat, I fucking hate waiting for someone. If it wasn't for my brother, I would have left long ago. "Mate as well," Dominic said. A smile appeared on my face hearing about my mate... My mate... she is the best thing that has ever happene
~Ashton's POV~ While Jayden's eyes were moving everywhere on the road with his window open to catch even a small whiff of Marcus's scent, my eyes were glued on the road for any sign of Mr Jose. It was Marcus who took him from our place so I am sure he didn't have any plans to be our driver and do the job nicely. For sure he has something very dangerous up his sleeves and I don't want any human to become his prey. We were 2 miles away from his home when my eyes fell on a man dressed in the same blue suit as Mr. Jose and he had 2 people around him who were... Fucking vampires! They were trying to drain him by having his blood! "Stop the car," I hurriedly said. He abruptly pushed the brakes and as soon I got out of the car, I knew it was Mr Jose. Those Vampires flew away seeing Jayden and me getting out of the car and we made our way to Mr Jose who already started turning blue. "He fucking threw him on the footpath," I growled. "Fuck... we have to take him to the hospital. T
~Evelyn's POV~ "So what was the issue last night?" Mom asked as I took a mouthful of pancake. Last night... I guess I would call it the most intense night of my life. There was so much tension in my whole body last night thinking about every worst scenario when Ash and Jay were out that I can't even tell. Jay... Just like I like to call Ashton Ash, I love to call Jayden Jay... It makes me feel connected to them more and I feel a lot more stronger connection with them. I am glad they didn't have to get into their action mode but Marcus... He is still out there planning something against Jayden. And now when he knows about Ash and me, only God and he knows what he is planning against us. "There was a man with not-so-good intentions in the Warren house last night. Jayden and he have a history so it was best to take precautions," I said after taking the last bite of my pancake. "Speaking about Jayden Conner, how is he? I mean I heard he is the same as Ashton in looks but in na
~Jayden's POV~ My blood boiled when Ashton told me that his friend scented vampires near Marcus's hideout. What the heck is he doing with Vampires? Or does he know that some shit leech was already after Evelyn? That fucking be not true because if it is, then we have a great danger looming over our heads. We reached a bushy area near Marcus's hideout and Ashton nodded to a few other werewolves who were waiting for us to join them. Everyone went their separate ways to seal all the possible routes of Marcus getting out of our hands and we cautiously came out of the car. "Why do I feel like something badly rotten was here?" Evelyn asked while sniffing around the area. "That's how dead bodies smell," I said while holding her hand. "You... Vampires?" She asked. Ashton and I hummed in response and she tightened her grip on my hand. Seeing how tightly she held onto me makes me feel that she had very bad encounters with them. I will fucking rip them apart if they dared to get cl
~Third Person's POV~ Emma woke up with mixed feelings in her heart. Even though the pain was still there, Evelyn was able to replace it with happiness. She was over the moon after knowing she would be welcoming a new life in her family after so many years. A shiver ran down her spine as the memory of her twin newborns flashed in front of her eyes and she shook her head, "I won't let anything happen to my grandchildren." She remembered what Evelyn asked for and mind-linked Jayden, asking him about his whereabouts."In my office as my mate doesn't want me to enter our room..." Jayden huffed in the mind link. "How long has it been?" Emma asked. "The whole night, Mom... Ashton will be back anytime soon and then I will talk to her," He sighed."Where's Dad?" Jayden asked. "In the shower..." She replied. "I'm coming to see you," Jayden said and walked out of his office. Emma was waiting for Jayden to arrive but instead of only Jayden, Ashton and he both reached her which brought
~Evelyn's POV~ It's been only a few hours since I found out about my baby and I am already feeling as if my body is changing inside out. I know it's my brain constantly reminding me of the life growing inside me but the constant feeling of something moving in my stomach is making me feel ticklish and making me feel more protective towards myself. Even in the massage parlour, I didn't let the masseuse put pressure on my back or stomach. Everything was going fine until she asked me if I was pregnant. How the heck did she know about this? As far as I remember, the OB told me that my pregnancy would be different than werewolves then how she was able to point it out?"Our scent changes when we get pregnant. Maybe she caught two scents in you," Estelle said. "That means Jayden will be able to identify it as well?" I asked. "Yes..." I sighed, that means I have to tell him before Ash. I can't hide this from him for a long time. But I wanted to tell both of them together about our
*** Trigger warning- Please skip the dungeon part if you find it triggering.***~Jayden's POV~ It was not a shocker for me or Ashton to find out about Vincent as he is also a blood-sucking leech but I was indeed amazed by the acting that he did all these years. Looking back on the conversation that I had with the vampire council earlier, I wouldn't have ever doubted that it was Vincent, the oldest vampire in the council, was killing people behind everyone's back. The way he was taking the lead and acting so calm... That was a thing to praise. He did a great job of concealing his identity for so many years... He not only killed so many innocents one after another but also tortured so many women by making them his pet. I'm glad Ashton was always with Evelyn... At least he wasn't able to catch her... I checked my phone one more time to see if Evelyn texted me back or not and sighed. I thought I would talk to her about this and tell her that Ashton was on his way home but this girl
~Third Person's POV~ Ashton's heart was filled with peace and excitement with the thought that everything would go back to its place in just a few hours. Sarah and Emmett called all the council members from the werewolf, vampire, and dragon communities for an urgent meeting to reveal the person behind all these attacks in the human world and punish the person right there. Where every single person in the council was puzzled by the sudden meeting, dragons were enjoying it. Their playful and deadly nature was making the fact more exciting that they would be the ones killing the vampire and his whole army in just a snap. Ashton stepped inside the conference room with Sarah and Emmett and instantly he caught the eyes of every single person sitting there. The werewolf council knew it was Ashton Conner but for dragons and vampires, he seemed Jayden Conner. But unlike Jayden whose aura is powerful and deadly, his aura is calm and mysterious which excites the dragons and confuses the
~Ashton's POV~ Even though I was by my wife's side all night, I still didn't sleep and kept twisting and turning the whole night. It was torture for me to leave her side right the next day after our wedding, but I had to do this. Her smooth leg was tangled between my legs with my hand resting on her left breast and chin touched with her head but still, I couldn't sleep with the thought that I had to leave her side to meet the councils in the morning and that too without telling her. I am sure she must be giving a hard time to Jayden after knowing that I left, but I hope she will understand this. I know I have to hear a lot from her on this, but as long as I succeed in what I am about to do, I am happy to hear anything that she wants to say. I just want to see her safe... And the only option to make sure she stays safe is to go and implement the plan that I forged with Emmett and Sarah. I took a sigh of relief as the plane landed, and I quickly checked my phone. A groan left m
~Jayden's POV~ I don't get what's wrong with her. I understand she is mad because Ashton or I didn't tell her he would be leaving, but her reaction... Why doesn't she understand that she can't talk to me like that? I do not want to dominate her or behave like those dominating alphas, but she also needs to understand that she can't use that tone on me. I don't act like an alpha around her because that is my comfort home space where I don't want to boss at all but whenever she uses that voice on me, I don't want anything but to growl and tell her I won't take that attitude from her. But... I am glad I didn't do what I had long to do then. It would have worsened the situation more. I will talk to her when she wants to. I don't want to approach her right now... We ran back to the packhouse so I could finally go to the dungeon to get some answers from my so-called aunt, but suddenly I felt that some footsteps accompanying me left my side. I gazed at my left and saw Jake wasn'
~Evelyn's POV~ Jay slammed the door after him and went out of the room which enraged me more... I asked him to leave me alone for some time not to slam the door on my face. "He didn't slam the door on your face... You are standing far away from the door," Estelle said. "I was looking at the door so it means the same thing!" I growled and sat on the couch. "Evelyn, you-" Estelle tried to say something but once again I started to get the same weird feeling in my stomach that I got a few moments ago and I ran to the bathroom. Again I threw the little amount of water out of my stomach and sighed, what the heck is wrong with me? First Ash left without telling me anything, then Jay behaved as if it was me who was at the fault, and now this... What the heck is wrong with us? "I think I know..." Estelle whispered in my head. "What? What's wrong with me?" She is my wolf... She resides in me... For sure she must know what's wrong with me. "What is it, Estelle?" I asked while was
~Jayden's POV~ The rose scent of my mate entered my nostrils and I pulled her back to me. Her soft naked skin brushed against my naked body, giving me the best feeling in the morning and I kissed her shoulder, making her move closer to me. I love how we feel in each other's arms... These tingles and the spark flowing between us intensify ten times more in the morning just like the feeling of getting inside my mate in the morning. "Jay..." She mumbled in sleep. Her sleepy voice hit me hard and my length instantly hardened which hit her butt. A soft sound came out of her mouth which made it more difficult for me to keep my dick to myself and I gave her a soft and slow thrust. "Baby..." She whispered in the most cute voice. "Hmm..." I kissed her shoulder while caressing one of her breasts with my one hand and rubbed my fingers on the bean sitting at the top of her flower. She turned around to kiss me but I went on top of her and parted her legs at both of my sides. I swiftl
~Jayden's POV~"She won't be liking it..." "I know she won't but I have to. I don't think we have any other option if we want to end this stuff right now only," Ashton sighed. "It might take you days and you just got married," I said while running my fingers through my hair. Whatever he was saying or suggesting was right but I couldn't let go of him like this. He just got married... How can I let him go and tell his newly wedded wife that he is not here to be with her? That he might not be with her maybe for a couple of days or more? I can't do this... It will be very wrong to Evelyn. "She will understand. I know," He said. "I know she would but it would upset her a lot. Her wedding had already been ruined and now this..." I sighed, I don't know what should I do. I want to put an end to our current situation but at the same time, I don't want to hurt Evelyn as well. "Tell her after I leave... Not before that," Ashton said. He gazed at my disagreeing face and sighed, "
