ADRIAN'S POVI stood there, staring at Xerxes, trying to make sense of his behavior and all the rubbish he was saying. I didn't seem to understand why he always found some reason to fault Zero, even when it wasn't her fault. It made me wonder why he was always so quick to blame her whenever something went wrong in battle. A suspicion crept into my mind, and I found myself pondering if Xerxes had feelings for Zero.As I continued to gaze at him, my expression must have become one of contemplation because Xerxes finally broke the silence. "Are you listening to me? Wait.…why are you staring at me like that?" He asked as he noticed the look on my face. "What are you thinking about, Adrian?""I'm just wondering why you always find fault with Zero. It seems like you blame her for everything that goes wrong."Xerxes scoffed. "That's ridiculous. Zero is a great fighter, no doubt about it but I don't trust her. There's just something weird about her. I have this nagging feeling in me that she'
EVA'S POVI paced back and forth in my room, my thoughts consumed by the worry that gnawed at me. I had told Adrian about Xerxes, warned him about the danger he posed, but I couldn't help but feel like he wasn't taking me seriously. The guy thought I was just making up stories but why would I even do that?My expression must have betrayed my anxiety because I could feel the tension in my face, the creases forming in my forehead, and the worry lines etching themselves around my eyes. I couldn't shake off the feeling that something terrible was going to happen, and the thought of Adrian being hurt by Xerxes made me anxious.I continued to pace, my footsteps echoing against the wooden floorboards, as I tried to think of what else I could say or do to make Adrian see the truth about Xerxes. I couldn't shake off the feeling that Xerxes was hiding something, that he was dangerous, and that he would bring nothing but trouble if nobody stopped him.My worries only intensified as I imagined th
ADRIAN'S POVI stood there, frozen, as Eva hurled question after question at me. She stood before me, arms on her waist, and I couldn't help but notice how her fiery gaze was fixated on me. The way she looked at me made me feel like I was under a microscope. She wasn't scared of me like she usually was and I was shocked.It wasn't until she mentioned our relationship that everything hit me like a ton of bricks. "Even if we aren't on good terms, you shouldn't be sleeping around with Zero or other girls," she said, her voice rising with each passing word. "I've been faithful to you."I couldn't believe the words coming out of her mouth, the boldness with which she was speaking. I had never seen this side of her before. It was like she was a completely different person. "Wow, what happened to Eva?" I wondered, amused by her boldness.My expression must have given away my shock because she narrowed her eyes at me. "What, did you think I wouldn't know?" she spat. "Her scent is all over you
EVA'S POVI felt a piercing pain in my chest as I saw Zero standing there in Adrian's room, half-naked. It was as if the world had stopped turning, and all that remained was this moment of betrayal. I couldn't believe my eyes. I thought that Zero was my friend, that she would never do something like this to me. But there she stood, with her shirt off and Adrian's hands on her waist.I was seething with anger. My eyes narrowed, my lips tightened, and my fists clenched at my sides. I felt like I could explode at any moment, but I managed to keep myself together.As I turned to leave, I heard Adrian's voice calling after me. "Eva, wait! Let me explain!"But I didn't want to hear it. I didn't want to be reminded of what I had just seen. I didn't want to be reminded of the way Zero had betrayed me. So I ran back to my room, tears streaming down my face.I slammed the door shut behind me and collapsed onto my bed, my heart pounding in my chest. I couldn't believe this was happening to me. I
EVA'S POVI was frozen in terror as the chaos swirled around me, the sounds of screaming and crashing filling my ears. The marketplace was supposed to be a place of lively chatter and haggling, but now it was a scene of pandemonium. I felt Zero grab my arm, "Come with me," she said urgently, leading me through the throngs of panicked people.I stumbled after her, my heart pounding in my chest. Zero led me to a quiet corner, behind a stack of crates."Hide here," she said, pushing me down to the ground. "Stay low and don't move until I come back."I looked up at her, her dark eyes meeting mine. "But what about you?" I asked, my voice trembling."I'll be fine," she said with a small smile. "I need to see if I can help others get to safety."And with that, she was gone, darting back into the fray.As I watched Zero disappear, I felt like I had to do something to help too. The chaos of the marketplace was overwhelming, and innocent people were falling left and right.Without a second thou
EVA'S POV I woke up to the feeling of someone kissing my forehead. My eyes slowly opened, and I saw Adrian standing beside my bed, holding a tray of food.It was a surreal moment, and I couldn't believe what was happening. Was I dreaming? Maybe I was because the Adrian I knew now would never do that, never.After the attack yesterday, Adrian had taken me to my room and made sure I was comfortable. I was still a little shaken up from everything that had happened including seeing Zayn.But Adrian made sure that I was okay before leaving my room last night. He was acting all tough throughout the night, trying to protect me, and by the look on his face, I could tell that he was worried about me. It was almost unbelievable but I could see how worried he was.As he placed the tray of food on my nightstand, he turned to me and asked, "How are you feeling, Eva?"His voice was soft and gentle, and I could sense the concern in his words. It was a stark contrast to his usual tough-guy demeanor,
ZAYN'S POVMy heart was pounding in my chest, and I felt a flutter in my stomach as I thought about her. Eva, I mean – just the thought of her sent shivers down my spine.I had experienced a spark of dopamine when I touched her earlier that day, and I wanted nothing more than to be with her again.As I stood there, staring out into the night sky, I couldn't help but feel restless.My mind was consumed by thoughts of Eva, and my body ached to be close to her.I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down. But it was no use.My heart was racing, and I could feel the blood rushing to my face. I wanted her. I needed her. And I was ready to do anything just so I could see her and be with her again.I should have gone back to my base after the attack and everything, but I couldn't bring myself to leave Adrian's territory. Not when Eva was here, somewhere.I had a plan. I was going to watch her, unnoticed.It was risky, but I had to see her again. I had to know that she
ADRIAN'S POVI was a bundle of nerves. My heart was beating rapidly against my chest as I frantically searched for Eva. I had seen her come out of the courtroom, but now she was nowhere to be found.My mind was running wild with scenarios of what might have happened to her and with the recent attacks that had been going on, I was extremely worried. Had she been kidnapped? Was she hurt? All these questions flooded my head as I walked around the mansion searching for her.I searched high and low, but I couldn't find her anywhere. The anxiety that was consuming me was palpable. I wasn't normally like this but I had no idea what had gotten into me lately.I looked under every nook and cranny, searching for any sign of her. My eyes darted from left to right, taking in every detail of my surroundings, but Eva was nowhere in sight.Just as I was about to go crazy with worry, I bumped into Xerxes. "Do you know where Eva is?" I blurted out, desperation lacing my voice.Xerxes shook his head,
EVA’S POVI had been preparing for war ever since I received the letter from Zayn. My heart was beating fast as I adjusted my warrior's wear, making sure everything was in place. Alpha Desmond stood beside me, he was ready for the fight.I couldn't attack Zayn's pack first, not knowing where they were located. But that didn't stop me from training every day, pushing myself to my limits. I had to be ready for anything.As I looked outside my room's window, I could see my pack members getting ready for battle. Some were sharpening their swords, while others were checking their bows and arrows. I could sense the tension in the air, the anticipation of what was to come.Alpha Desmond placed a hand on my shoulder, his voice deep and reassuring. "We're ready for this, Eva. Just remember to stay focused and stay alive."I nodded, taking a deep breath and trying to calm my nerves.

ZAYN'S POVAs I watched the informant scurry away, I caught sight of a Beta wearing a hoodie with the Bahki emblem. And I knew instantly that he was sent by Eva.I could feel my blood boiling with anger. She had the guts to send someone to spy on me, to try and gather information about my well-being.The Beta came up to me confidently and spoke, telling me to follow him quietly, along with Roy. He threatened me, saying that he would have no choice but to wound me aggressively if I didn't comply.I chuckled at his audacity. Did he really think he could intimidate me? Funny guy indeed.I decided to teach him a lesson, to show him who was in charge. I challenged him to a duel, and he accepted without a single thought, his eyes gleaming with confidence.We fought fiercely, our movements were fluid and precise. But I was stronger and more skilled, and soon I had the upper hand. I could see the fear in his eyes as I closed in on him, the blade of my sword poised to strike.With one swift bl
ZAYN’S POVThe cheers of my pack members filled the air as I stood over the fallen body of the Alpha. I had done it. I had defeated him, killed him, and taken his place as the new leader of the pack. It was a moment of triumph, one that filled me with pride and joy.The pack members gathered around me, clapping me on the back, and congratulating me on my victory. I felt a sense of gratitude wash over me, knowing that I couldn't have done it without their support and encouragement.But suddenly the pain hit me, a sharp, burning pain that shot through my fingers. I tried to hide it, to keep the others from noticing, but they could tell that something was wrong. They were all staring at me with concern and worry etched on their faces.Some persons came forward, offering to help me, to take me to my room. I knew I needed to act fast, to keep everyone from seeing the poison that was inside my fingers. So when they carefully aided me and brought me to my room, I gave orders for them to lea
ZAYN’S POVA few years had passed and I had finally found a pack I could call mine, and we had grown strong and fierce together. We trained together every day, pushing ourselves to be the best we could be. Even my son, yes Roy, had grown up to be a handsome young boy, and I was proud to call him my son.As I and Roy trained together every day, I could see the determination in his eyes. He was always eager to learn, always eager to improve. And I was happy to be the one to teach him. It was my wish for him to grow up to be a strong and competent man, just like I was.I trained with Roy and the pack every day until I began to feel a desire burning deep within me. I wanted more than just to belong to the pack and train – I developed the urge to challenge the Alpha of the pack, to prove that I was strong enough to be an Alpha as well. And so because of my desire, I trained harder, pushing myself to be the best I could be.I could feel the love of my pack members and I knew that I had thei
EVA’S POVAs I lay on my bed, staring at the ceiling, memories of that fateful night came flooding back. The night I fled from my pack, searching for the aura that had intoxicated me. It seemed like a long time ago, but I remembered it like it was yesterday.I closed my eyes and let my mind wander back to that night. I remembered the way the moonlight had filtered through the trees, casting shadows on the forest floor. The cool breeze had brushed against my skin, and I had felt alive.I recalled how I had stumbled upon Zayn. He had been washing himself in the river, looking handsome and breathtaking. I had been so surprised to see him there, but I had felt drawn to him.I recalled the good memories we created in such a short time together. I had felt a connection with him, a bond that I had not felt in a very long time. It was like he had understood me, like he had seen through all my pretences and defences.As I lay there, remembering everything, I couldn't help but smile. It had bee
ZAYN’S POVI awakened and quietly sat up, I didn't want to wake Eva up. I was feeling utterly betrayed as I watched her sleep peacefully on the rocking chair after breaking my heart with her hurtful words.My heart sank. She really didn't care about me at all. Her reason for wanting to leave was stupid!! Just because I was an Omega. It felt like there was a crushing weight on my chest, and I couldn't breathe.I always thought we were deeply in love, that our bond was unbreakable. But I guess I was wrong. Eva had no qualms about leaving me behind, she was ready to leave me to bear the brunt of the hurt alone.I couldn't help but wonder if I was ever truly loved by her. Did she only stay with me because she thought I was an Alpha? The thought made me sick to my stomach. I felt like a fool for trusting her with my heart.I tried to hold back the tears that threatened to spill, but it was a futile effort. One escaped, then another. And before I knew it, I was sobbing like a little girl un
EVA’S POVWhen we arrived at the hut, I couldn't help but notice how Zayn had dashed away from the beast.I stood there for a moment, trying to catch my breath as I patted Roy to sleep.Zayn was panting heavily beside me, his eyes filled with fear. He seemed so shaken up, so scared. And I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in him. I mean, I could have just taken on that beast without so much as batting an eyelid, and here he was, acting like a frightened child.I tried to push those thoughts aside and decided to focus on what mattered but I couldn't. I needed to know more about Zayn's werewolf rank.I cautiously approached him. "Zayn, what rank are you in the wolves?" I asked, trying to keep my voice calm and level.Zayn looked at me, his eyes filled with surprise and confusion. "What do you mean?" he asked, his voice shaky."I mean, what's your rank? Alpha? Beta? Omega?" I pressed.Zayn hesitated for a moment before answering. "I'm an Omega," he said finally, his voice bare
ZAYN’S POVI trudged along the dirt path, my heart heavy with sadness. My feet carried me to the river, a place where I often went when I needed to clear my head. The sound of the water rushing past the rocks was soothing to my troubled mind. I sank onto the grassy bank, my eyes fixed on the water. I couldn't help but think of Eva and the baby.My thoughts were consumed with her and the fact that she now had a child for Adrian. I just couldn't believe it. I was terrified. I feared that the baby would become a barrier between us, preventing us from sharing a future together. As I sat there, my mind racing with worry, I suddenly realized that Eva had not said anything to me about not wanting to be with me. If this baby was going to be an issue, she would have told me right away. I let out a deep sigh. I loved Eva more than anything in this world, and I was determined to make our relationship work no matter what. I gazed out at the water once again, my eyes fixed on the ripples danci
ZAYN'S POVI knew what I had to do as soon as I noticed that Eva had been bitten by a snake and the poison was coursing through her veins. I could see fear in her eyes, and I knew that time was running out. I had to act fast.I felt a surge of adrenaline as I ran out of the hut and into the forest, my heart pounding in my chest. As I ran, my mind raced with thoughts of a type of herbal leaf that cures snake bites.The leaves were the only thing that could save her at that moment so I had to find them.I darted around trees and dodged through bushes. And after what felt like an eternity, I finally found the leaves. My heart swelled with relief as I plucked them from the ground.I sprinted back to the hut with the leaves clenched tightly in my hand. Eva was barely conscious when I reached her and her breaths were shallow and labored.I knelt beside her and took a deep breath. I had to be calm and focused.I took out the leaves and crushed them between my fingers, the sweet scent of the
