Carlos leaned forward, his piercing blue eyes locked on mine. "I managed to recover the surveillance footage from the night of James's murder," he said, his voice filled with a mix of triumph and gravity.

Eva's grip on my hand tightened, her eagerness and nerves noticeable as we both held our breath, waiting for Carlos to continue.

"It wasn't easy," Carlos said, his brow furrowed. "The data was almost destroyed, but my team worked tirelessly to revive it."

My heart pounded in my chest, my expression intense as I asked the question on both our minds. "What's the quality like? Is it clear enough?"

Carlos hesitated, his eyes betraying a hint of concern. "It's a bit shaky, crackly... like an old CD, but it's still manageable."

I nodded, determination coursing through me. "Let's see it," I said, my voice steady and sure.

Carlos pulled out a flash drive and inserted it into his laptop, the soft whirring of the machine cutting through the silence in the air.

    EvaAs Lorenzo pulled up to my place, I breathed a sigh of relief, a gentle smile playing on my lips as I felt the lingering tension from our passionate kiss."Thanks for the ride," I said, reaching for the door handle, ready to head inside and process the whirlwind of emotions that had swept over us. My face had already turned bright red because of the kiss, and the thoughts of it."Wait," Lorenzo said, his hand on my arm, his concern evident in his voice. "Are you sure you're okay? You should rest.""What?" I felt quite perplexed."Your face," he pointed. "It's extremely red.""Ohh," I muttered, trailing my fingers against my face. "I'm fine. Nothing much."He nodded, his brow furrowed in thought. "Remember to take your meds if you feel any symptoms coming back," he reminded me, his protective nature both endearing and comforting."I will," I promised, my hand over his, our eyes locking in a silent exchange of passion.Lorenzo walked me to the building door, his arm around my waist,

    EvaI cautiously opened my eyes, bracing myself for the anticipated agony, but the expected searing pain never came. Erica stood before me, her face distorted with a mix of rage and jealousy as she towered over me. I couldn't help but feel a strange sense of relief as my skin remained untouched, free from the horrific acid she had threatened me with.With a raspy cough, Erica hastily concealed the bottle, her once-confident demeanor replaced with a sense of sadness and unease. Her gaze remained fixed on mine as she tucked the bottle back into her bag, as if daring me to question her motives."That wasn't even acid," Erica said, a condescending smirk playing at the corners of her mouth. "I don't know why you screamed like that."I swallowed hard, my body still trembling with the aftershocks of her sinister charade. Although I felt relieved, the fear and trauma of her actions lingered in the air like a suffocating fog."It was just water," Erica continued, her tone laced with mockery an

    LorenzoMy mother's expression hardened, leaving no room for negotiation. "I won't say another word until you drink the tea I prepared for you. The sedative they used has left you weak and vulnerable, Lorenzo."Despite my glaring defiance, I couldn't ignore the heavy weight of fatigue that pressed down on my body, making even the simplest of movements a challenge."Fine," I muttered, reluctantly accepting the cup.The soothing aroma of the tea enveloped my senses as I drained the contents in one large gulp, eager to get to the truth that lay hidden beneath my mother's cryptic warnings.I handed the empty cup back to her, my gaze unwavering. "I've done as you asked. Now, tell me what you know."My mother's eyes narrowed, her voice dropping to a conspiratorial whisper. "That woman, Lorenzo... she's not who you think she is. She murdered the Alpha of the Wild Song Pack's brother."A smirk tugged at the corner of my mouth as I shook my head, disbelief and determination mingling in my hear

I rushed inside, fueled by a potent mix of worry and hope.A nurse greeted me with a warm smile at the reception desk. "Alpha Lorenzo? I assume you're here for—""Eva," I interrupted, urgency bleeding into my voice. "How is she?"The nurse's expression softened, her tone gentle. "She's recovering well. You'll find her in room 304."I didn't even respond or look twice at her. I simply ran off, took the stairs two at a time, my heart thundering in my chest as I closed the distance between us.Room 304.I pushed open the door, my gaze sweeping across the dimly lit space until it landed on Eva's sleeping form.My heart skipped a beat at the sight of her.Quietly, I approached her bedside, the sound of my footsteps muffled by the stillness of the room."Eva?"

    LorenzoI groggily opened my eyes, greeted by a pounding headache and dry mouth. The events of the previous night were hazy, but the hangover was all too real. I winced, trying to recall how I ended up in bed.That's when I saw her – a lady lying beside me, naked. My gaze drifted to my own bare chest, and my mind went blank. What happened?I panicked as I scrambled to piece together the fragments of my memory. Last night, I saw Eva's face, heard her voice, felt her presence. But this wasn't Eva!"Eva?" I whispered, confusion etched on my face.The woman beside me stirred, smiling softly. "Morning," she said, her voice husky with a smile on her lips.My heart sank. This wasn't Eva. It was Erica."What are you doing here? No, I mean... what happened last night?" I asked, desperation creeping into my voice.Erica's smile faltered, and she sat up, pulling the sheet around her. "You don't remember?"I shook my head, feeling a wave of anxiety wash over me."We... uh... we had a lot to drink

"No, Thelma, I'm okay. I'm not hungry."Her expression softened. "Then, I think you need rest, Eva. Sleep will do you good."I nodded, feeling emotionally drained. "Yes, that's what I need."Thelma helped me get comfortable in bed. "If you're hungry later, let me know."I managed a weak smile, nodding in agreement.As she tucked me in, I closed my eyes, allowing fatigue to consume me.A few hours later, I woke up f

    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.

    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 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
