Lorenzo I devoured Eva's lips, our bodies pressed together beside the door. Her arms wrapped around my broad shoulders, her fingers trailing around my skin as I deepened the kiss. My arms encircled her waist, pulling her closer. Just as we were lost in the moment, my phone rang, shrill and insistent. I groaned, reluctantly breaking away from Eva's lips. I glanced at the screen, my eyes narrowing at the unknown number. The caller wasn't a saved contact, so I rejected the call, my thumb swiping across the screen with a swift motion. I turned to Eva and noticed that her lips were swollen from our kiss. My gaze locked onto hers, my eyes burning with desire. I lifted her off the ground, my arms cradling her body as I carried her to the bedroom. The soft glow of the bedside lamp cast a warm light on Eva's face as I laid her down on the bed. I hovered above her, my lips claiming hers once more. The world around us melted away, leaving only the sensation of our bodies entwined. But the pe
EvaI woke up to find Lorenzo thrashing beside me, his body rigid and drenched in sweat. His whispers pierced the darkness, "No, no, no," each word laced with desperation.My heart racing, I sat up and wrapped my arms around him, pulling him close. His skin was slick with sweat, and his muscles trembled beneath my touch."Lorenzo, are you alright?" I whispered, my voice soft and soothing. I stroked his hair, trying to calm his racing heart.His eyes snapped open, and I gasped at the tears streaming down his face. His breath came in ragged gasps, and his body shuddered beneath my touch. Was he crying? I couldn't believe it, but that was actually the least of my worries.I simply held him tighter, my fingers tracing gentle patterns on his back. "Hey, it's okay. You're safe," I whispered, my voice a gentle breeze on a summer day.As I spoke, Lorenzo's trembling subsided, replaced by deep, shuddering breaths. His eyes locked onto mine, filled with a haunted expression."What happened?" I
LorenzoI sat up in bed, my eyes scanning the empty room immediately after Eva crept out, thinking that I was asleep. I hadn't slept; my insomnia was a constant companion. But it wasn't just the lack of sleep that troubled me – it was Eva's confession.Letting out a deep sigh, I tried to rationalize my emotions. Our contract was ending in three to four months, and our nurse-patient relationship would conclude in a year. Feelings were out of the picture.My phone buzzed, breaking the silence and my deep thoughts. I answered, my voice firm. "Yes?""Good morning, Mr. Monroe," Miss Evelyn, my secretary, chimed in."Good morning," I replied, my tone neutral."What's the reason for the call, Miss Evelyn? It's quite early." I glanced at the clock – 4:30 AM."I apologize for the early hour, sir. You have a meeting with the Smithson Group at 10 AM today. I wanted to confirm your attendance and brief you on the agenda."I rubbed my temples, trying to shake off thoughts of Eva. "Go ahead."Miss
EvaI stood before him, my voice trembling like a leaf in an autumn gust as I spoke. "The article about Alpha Lorenzo, our upcoming marriage... Did you see it?""I saw it," he replied, his tone as neutral as a winter sky, giving away nothing.I felt a surge of frustration, my hands clenched into fists so tight my nails dug into my palms. "What are we going to do about that?" I demanded, trying to keep my voice from rising like a stormy tide. "I thought we weren't supposed to make it public… yet."He shrugged, his shoulders barely moving, as if the weight of the situation was a feather on his broad shoulders. "It has happened and well, we don't need to do anything about it. We'll just let it flow," he said, his words dripping with nonchalance.I laughed, a bitter sound that tasted like ash in my mouth, and shook my head so hard my hair whipped around my face. "Let it flow? You mean let the lies flow? We're not even getting married, Lorenzo! We're just pretending to be engaged for four
LorenzoI bit my bottom lip, trying to contain my frustration. How could Rita post that article without my permission? I thought we had an understanding.As I arrived at the packhouse, I nodded curtly at the pack members who greeted me, my mind still reeling from the news. Then, I barged into my mother's chambers, where she was receiving a massage from the servants. They bowed down and quickly left, sensing my tension.Eva followed closely behind me, her presence quiet and unassuming."Ah, the new lovers in town!" My mother looked up, a warm smile on her face. "It's so lovely to see you both."I didn't return her smile. "Mom, what did you tell Rita?" I asked, my voice low and even.My mother's smile faltered, and she sat up, her eyes locked on mine. "What are you talking about, dear?"I clenched my jaw. "Don't play dumb, Mom. I know that you saw Rita's post. What did you tell her?""I didn't tell her anything bad, Lorenzo," my mother shook her head. "Well, Rita called me last night an
LorenzoAs we finished dinner, Mother began to wrap up the evening, preparing to send us off. "It's getting late, Lorenzo. I'll have the driver drive you and Eva home."I glanced at Eva, then back at Mother. "No need, Mother. It's already late. I'll just stay over."Eva's eyes widened, and she leaned in, whispering, "Lorenzo, isn't this too much? We can still head out."I ignored her concern, focusing on my mother's reaction.Her face lit up with a warm smile. "Wonderful idea, Lorenzo! You and Eva can stay in one of the guest rooms. I'll have a servant show you to your room."Eva's unease was noticeable, but I reassured her with a gentle smile."Thank you, Mother," I said, standing up.A loyal servant appeared at the doorway. "Right this way, Alpha."As we followed him, Eva's hand brushed against mine, sending a spark of electricity through me. I resisted the urge to take her hand, knowing that I couldn't overstep my boundaries, especially after rejecting her that way.We reached one
EvaLorenzo's arm wrapped around my waist like a vice, his hot breath caressing my damp neck as he drove his cock in and out of me from behind. I moaned, the pleasure bordering on pain, and my body instinctively tried to pull away, but his grip tightened, holding me firmly in place."Please, Lorenzo," I whimpered, my voice thick with desire. The bedsheets tangled around our entwined bodies, slipping down as his movements grew more fervent.A low growl rumbled in his chest as he thrust faster and deeper, his body pressing against mine as if trying to merge with me. My legs trembled, my core clenching around him, and a sharp, pleasure-filled cry escaped my lips."Sshh!" he hissed, his hand clamping over my mouth, silencing my moans. "My mom is in the other room."He stilled, and I nodded in understanding. In the next instant, he buried his cock inside me again, and I bit down on my lip to stifle a scream."Sshhh!" he warned again, his annoyance evident in his tone."Sorry," I whispered,
LorenzoMy eyes snapped open, and I found myself lying on the bed, utterly confused. Despite having had sex with Eva beside me, I realized I hadn't slept at all. Frustration welled up inside me as I noticed my unusual state. "Why am I not sleeping? What's going on?" I thought.I glanced over at Eva, watching her slumber, the soft sound of her snores filling the air. With a deep sigh, I eased myself out of bed and made my way to the dining area, where a bottle of wine beckoned. I poured a glass, the rich aroma wafting around me, and took a sip, feeling the warmth of the liquid spread through my chest.Feeling a bit tipsy after a few more sips, I returned to the bedroom, desperately hoping that this time, I'd be able to drift off. I closed my eyes, willing my body to relax, but my thoughts continued to race, refusing to let me find peace.Groaning in frustration, I sat up once more, my gaze landing on my discarded jacket. An idea struck me, and I hurried over to it, fishing out a small
EPILOGUETWO MONTHS LATERThe sun cast its golden rays upon the lush gardens of the Night City Pack's estate, where Eva and Lorenzo's wedding celebration was in full swing. The air was alive with laughter and music as pack members and guests from far and wide gathered to witness the union of Alpha Luna and her beloved.As the newlyweds shared their first dance, all eyes were on them. Eva's elegant white gown shimmered under the sunlight, her hair styled perfectly to showcase her radiant smile. Lorenzo, dashing in his tailored tuxedo, gazed lovingly into her eyes.The crowd cheered and applauded as they swayed to the music, their lips meeting in a tender kiss. The pack's elder, who had officiated the ceremony, beamed with joy, his eyes misty.Nearby, Eva's friends and pack members couldn't help but tear up, overwhelmed with happiness for their beloved Alpha Luna. The atmosphere was electric, filled with love and gratitude.As the music faded, Lorenzo took the microphone, his voice boom
LorenzoI leaned in, my lips brushing against Eva's in a tender kiss. She let out a soft laugh, her eyes sparkling with joy."What are you doing?" she teased, her voice filled with warmth.I rubbed her stomach gently, my voice brimming with love and affection. "Baby, please come fast. Your dad is waiting for you."Eva's smile widened, lighting up the entire room. Just then, her phone beeped, signaling a new message.Peering over her shoulder, I saw that it was a message from the Wild Song pack members. I couldn't help but grin as I read the heartfelt words expressing how much they missed her and longed to see her again."They've invited you to the pack," I said, my voice laced with excitement.Eva looked up at me, a hint of uncertainty in her eyes. "Should I go?"I chuckled softly. "Is that even a question? Of course, you should go. But don't worry, I'll be right there with you."Eva nodded, relief washing over her as she realized she wouldn't have to face the pack alone.THE NEXT DAY
EvaA sinister gleam filled Mona's eyes. "I heard you're pregnant, Eva."My mind spun, my voice trembling. "How did you know that?"Mona's smile widened, revealing a hint of cruelty. "Oh, I know everything about you, Eva."To my horror, she reached out and touched my stomach, a chilling intimacy in her gesture."I'll help you get rid of it," she whispered, her voice dropping to a low hiss. "I know you don't want the baby."I recoiled, my body trembling with fear and disbelief. "I never said I didn't want the baby."Mona's grip on my stomach tightened, and I tried to pull away, only to find that heavy chains bound my wrists and ankles, rendering me utterly helpless.With a flourish, Mona produced a dagger, its point glinting ominously in the dim light. I watched in horror as she traced the blade across my stomach, a wicked grin playing on her lips."You won't need this burden," Mona hissed, her eyes filled with a terrifying madness.A searing pain erupted in my stomach as the dagger sl
EvaRising from my seat, I followed the nurse as she led me to the lab for tests. With each step, my mind raced, conjuring innumerable possibilities.Anxious moments stretched into an eternity as I awaited the results, lost in a whirlwind of thoughts.Eventually, the nurse returned, her voice calling out, "Eva Chapman, please proceed to the doctor's office. Your results are ready."I stood up and went over to the door, which I knocked, my heart hammering in my chest, and entered.A woman with a warm smile greeted me. "Hello, Eva. I'm Dr. Rachel Thompson. Welcome. Please, take a seat."I complied, curiosity piqued by the doctor's optimistic demeanor. Could it mean that my test results were normal? Was I truly alright after all?Leaning forward, Dr. Thompson's eyes shone with kindness. "Eva, I have good news and...complicated news."My heart plummeted. Complicated? A feeling of dread washed over me. "What do you mean?" I asked, attempting to maintain a facade of calm.Dr. Thompson's smi
Eva Six hours ago... Standing beside Thelma in our cozy kitchen, I methodically chopped vegetables for dinner. The tantalizing aroma of sautéed ginger usually filled me with warmth and comfort, but today it was suffocating. I covered my nose, scrunching my face in disgust. "Thelma," I choked out, "I...I don't know what's wrong. This smell is nauseating." She turned to me, her brow creased with concern. "Eva, are you alright? You normally love the smell of ginger." I shook my head, a wave of nausea washing over me. "I don't know. It just...ugh." Before Thelma could respond, I bolted out of the kitchen, my hand clamped over my mouth. I raced to the bathroom and collapsed to my knees, retching violently into the toilet. The intensity and suddenness of my illness left me bewildered. After splashing my face with cold water, I stared at my pallid reflection in the mirror, unease settling over me. What was happening? With a deep breath, I gathered my courage and made my way back to th
Mona I ran through the dense forest alongside Erica, our footsteps pounding against the earth. Finally, we stopped and looked back, seeing no one pursuing us. "Fuck!" I exclaimed, running my hands through my hair in frustration. "Can you stop screaming?" Erica snapped, her expression stern. "What if they hear us and come for us? It's all your fault." I scoffed, turning to her. "You're not a saint, Erica. And don't try to tell me what to do." "I'm done following you, Mona," her anger flared, her voice rising. "It's not like I killed James; that was your doing. I'm not a murderer. I'M OUT." My grip on her arm tightened. "Where do you think you're going? You can't just leave." "Watch me. We're over," Erica said, her eyes flashing with a firm tone in her voice. I felt a surge of panic, my mind racing. "You can't just walk away." Erica's gaze hardened. "I can, and I will." I seethed with rage as she walked away. Without thinking, I grabbed a big stone and screamed, charging behind
Eva As we settled onto the sofas, Thomas and Lorenzo sat opposite us, their faces etched with concern. I grasped Thelma's hands, my eyes locked on hers, silently encouraging her to share her story. "Thelma, what happened? How did you get kidnapped? How did you escape? Please, tell me everything," I asked, my voice gentle yet urgent. Thelma's eyes welled up with tears, her body trembling as she struggled to speak. I quickly wrapped my arms around her, pulling her close in a comforting embrace. "Shh, it's okay, Thelma. Don't force yourself. You don't have to remember," I whispered, softly patting her back. Lorenzo nodded in agreement, his voice filled with relief. "Yes, we're just glad you're back home, safe and sound. We were so worried about you." Thelma's sobs intensified, her pain and fear palpable. Thomas came to us and leaned forward, his eyes reflecting his empathy and concern. "Take your time, Thelma. We're here for you," he said, his tone soothing and supportive. As her
EvaAs Lorenzo excused himself to transfer the files to Rita's phone, she turned to me with a warm smile."Let's exchange numbers," she suggested, handing me her phone. "After all, we'll be sisters-in-law soon."My eyes sparkled as I entered my number, a hint of amusement in my voice."Actually, we aren't officially engaged yet," I clarified, my lips curving into a gentle smile.Rita's brow raised as she questioned me. "What do you mean? Haven't you two gotten engaged yet?"I hesitated, unsure of how to explain. "We did, but...I gave him back the ring.""Why would you do that?" she asked, her curiosity piqued.My voice dropped to a whisper as I confessed. "I got caught up in a situation, and returning the ring seemed like the only way out."Rita's expression softened, her eyes locked on mine. "You're hesitant because of what happened with Christopher, aren't you?"I nodded, my heart heavy with uncertainty."Don't worry," she reassured me, her tone gentle and understanding. "Lorenzo lo
LorenzoAs I entered my apartment with Eva by my side, I immediately made my way to my drawer, rummaging through its contents with a sense of urgency.Eva observed my actions, her curiosity piqued."What are you searching for?" she inquired, her voice tinged with concern."The flash drive," I replied, my brow furrowed in concentration. "You know it contains crucial evidence of Mona's involvement in the murder."Eva's eyes widened with alarm. "Let me assist you," she offered, her tone resolute.Together, we combed through every nook and cranny of the apartment, leaving no stone unturned. Yet, the flash drive remained elusive, and my worry deepened, my jaw clenched in frustration."Are you certain you kept it here?" Eva asked, her gaze searching mine."Yes, I'm positive," I affirmed, my voice firm.Eva's eyes locked onto mine, her voice a gentle whisper. "What if Mona and Erica found it and took it?"My face darkened, my fist clenched in anger. "They wouldn't dare," I growled, my teeth
