(Alexander’s POV)
My eyes opened at midnight instantly, I got up from the bed and got ready for the meeting. The whole mansion was silent, when I walked out of the room. I took the back entrance and walked towards a clearing that only I knew off and reached the destination within 5 minutes.
“My, my, look how grown up you are” I heard her voice only and looked around to spot her but nothing was there except for trees.
“If we had to talk, then you have to show yourself” After a second, I stopped moving with hands crossed against my chest and waited for her.
Within a few seconds, she was in front of me in her glorious black gown with red pearls in it and a big smile on her face.
“Hello…Aunt” I had a smile on her face while
(Evelyn’s POV)I was missing Alex, don’t know how but in a few days only he made me fall in love with him. The feelings I never experienced were now coming out more prominently for him. And the kiss we shared was the best feeling to experience.So, the next day, I tried to get Alex’s number with Mia’s help and she won't even tell me how she got his number but the main thing was I had his number now. For the last 3 days, I saved his number in my phone and just looked at it without getting the confidence to call him.“What are you looking at, just call?” Mia and I were standing in the staff room. She was continuously pestering me to call her but I wasn’t able to.“I-I can’t, what if he doesn’t want to talk t
(Evelyn's POV) It's been three days since my parents died and I have been cooped up in my house since I returned from their funeral. I have been lying in my parents room since then and only got up for the washroom and nothing else. In these three days, someone might think that I am a living-dead person because of my appearance. My phone was also continuously ringing since that day and only two people kept on checking me by sending messages or calls. Yesterday, Mia even came to look for me but without opening the door I asked her to leave. Everything in my life has come to a halt, I don’t even know how to start my life again or even if I want to or not. My parents photo was still in my arms when again someone rang the doorbell. For a few seconds I ignored it but the person continuously rang and eventually, I got up. “Mia, I said I don’t want to see anyone…pls leave” I said through the door thinking Mia was there but some other person replied. “Not even me?” I can remember that voi
(Alexander’s POV) After the first call from Evelyn, I waited everyday for her call but there was none. I wanted to call her in return but was not able to get time, whenever I would decide to call something or the other came in between. The other day, on her call Aliana also woke up and now mind was totally focused on the attack and golden rogues… “They did have the same routine, Alpha King…” Brian and Chris have been keeping a watch on their pack since the time we got to know about them. Everyday they would report me of their movements but it's been 4 days and still no suspicious activity. “Do you really think those guys said the truth?” Brian hesitated before saying and my eyes connected with him immediately indicating the anger that erupted in me after listening to this from him. “Uh, I am so-sorry”. “There is definitely something and I can feel it” I said with a stern voice and they both nodded their heads. After an hour, Brian came into my sister's room where I was spend
(Alexander’s POV)We took a break from watching movies and it was around 3 in the afternoon. Evelyn went to the kitchen to get some snacks when my phone started ringing…“Chris?” I heard his panicked voice over the phone and the second he told me what happened, the ground slipped beneath my feet.“Alex?...Alex!” Evelyn's voice took me out of my trance and I looked at her. She was looking at me with worried eyes.“What’s the issue?” She kneeled down in front of me while just sitting still thinking about what Chris told me a minute before.“Alex…Look at me, now tell what happened? Who was on the phone? Is everything alright?” She asked me questions of whi
(Alexander’s POV)After taking a tour of my burned house and giving a few instructions to my head personnel, I went to my cabin. The moment I entered Alaina and Ashley looked at me.“You are back!” Ashley ran towards me to give a tight hug. We both then walked towards Alaina.“How are you?” I kissed her forehead and sat in between both of them while they put their heads on my chest.“What will happen now?...Everyone was giving us side glances, when fire broke out…they have lost trust in us, Alex”.“I will handle everything and now I am not going anywhere”.“But that girl?” Ashley looked up at me.“She has come with me…”.“What? But why?” Both of them looked at me with shocked faces.“I know it’s risky but she wanted to come and I was not able to say no” They both didn’t say anything and we all just sat there without further conversation.After a few hours, they both went to their rooms and I called Evelyn.“Hello?...Eve, are you ok?” “Alex, I am fine… How is everything there?” “I am
(Evelyn's POV)Since the time I have come to Alex’s cabin, I could feel something eerie. As if someone is watching me but I didn’t ponder upon it more and enjoyed the time with Alex’s sister’s. The second Alex came, there was tension on his face and I could clearly sense something was eating him alive.The second I entered his room and saw his tired face, I hugged him and wanted to show support the way he showed me when I was on my lowest point in life. I don’t know what came into my mind but that minute, I poured my feelings to him even though I was aware that he would not say it back. The time I asked him to take me with him, he was hiding something from me, I can feel it.“The dinner is ready, let’s go” I said after a few seconds and led him downstairs. During
(Alexander’s POV)“What are you saying?” Brian yelled when I recalled to him the whole story about yesterday.“I don’t know how it happened…Aaron just flipped out after seeing that rogue drooling over Evelyn” I sighed and sat on my chair.“So now, she knows about wolves!”“Kinda… But I don’t know how long I can keep this from her. There are so many things going on right now and I don’t know what to handle first!” “Alex, calm down. We all are here, just relax” He patted my shoulder in a brother kind of way to calm my emotions.Being an Alpha king of the biggest and powerful pack is not the easiest thing and I understood now, how my father would handle it so perfectly. Since his death, this is the first time I am facing a situation like this and I don't even know where to start.“Alpha king, I have arranged the meeting with alpha of golden rogues for tomorrow at the hotel” Chris entered after a few minutes and left after relaying the message.After handling a few things regarding the r
(Evelyn’s POV)I knew that Alex was hiding something from me since the time I saw him worried and that slash on his abdomen. There is definitely something going on in this place and I have to find out. With that goal in my mind I left Alex’s place and fighting with him was just a part of my plan to stay away from him…“Mia, you know what to do, right?” I immediately called her after reaching the hotel.“Yes, I have informed her she will take good care of you” And ended the call before packing my bag and leaving for my destination.After an hour, I reached a house and rang the doorbell. The door was opened by an old lady…“Hello, Mrs. Clove?” I asked and she nodded.“I am Evelyn, Mia must have told you about me”.“Oh yes! Come in dear…Mia said that you wanted to stay for a few days” She invited me in and I looked at her beautiful home.“Thank you so much for letting me stay” She just smiled at me before going into the kitchen. After drinking the water she got, we walked towards the roo
(Evelyn’s POV)The sun was shining warmly through the large windows of the mansion’s living room, casting a golden glow over everyone gathered there. I sat on the plush sofa, my laughter ringing through the space as the younger members of our group surrounded me with endless jokes and playful banter.Chris had just finished an exaggerated imitation of Magnus’s battle stance, earning hearty laughter from the group, including me.“Hey!” Magnus protested, trying to keep a straight face but failing miserably.“I don’t look like that!”“Oh, you do,” Veronica quipped from her seat by the fireplace, a smirk playing on her lips.
(Alexander’s POV)The morning sunlight filtered softly through the curtains, casting a warm, golden glow across the room. I stirred, my senses slowly coming to life. My first instinct was to tighten my hold on the warmth in my arms, and then my eyes fluttered open.There she was, Evelyn, my mate, lying peacefully against me. Her hair was spread across the pillow, her soft breathing steady, her face serene. After so many days of fear, chaos, and uncertainty, seeing her safe and sound felt like the most beautiful thing in the world.My heart swelled as I just lay there, watching her. I drank in every detail of her face, the way her lips were slightly parted, the soft curve of her cheek, the way her eyelashes rested gently against her skin.For a few moments, I did nothing but stare, letting the weight of everything we had been through fall away. Then, unable to resist, I leaned down and placed a tender kiss on her forehead.“I love you” I whispered softly, my voice filled with so much e
(Evelyn’s POV)My eyes widened in shock. I blinked a few times, trying to process the revelation."Daimon’s mother?" I repeated, my voice a mix of disbelief and curiosity. Alex nodded, his face etched with gratitude."Yes. She’s the one who helped us bring you back. She’s the reason I could get to you in time. She stood against her son to save you... to save all of us".My heart felt a strange pang. Daimon’s mother, a woman who had likely witnessed so much pain and darkness, had still chosen to help them. It was a surprising, even humbling thought. And before I could say anything else, the woman took a few slow steps forward, her eyes soft and warm. She moved as if the world around her didn’t matter, her focus solely on me.
(Author’s POV)The air was thick with anticipation as the seconds seemed to stretch on forever. The entire group stood outside the mansion, their eyes fixed on the second hole that had appeared in the sky, its swirling darkness ominous and uncertain. Everyone knew this was the moment that would determine everything.Suddenly, the hole rippled, and out of it stepped Alex, carrying Evelyn in his arms. His face was hard, his eyes filled with a mixture of exhaustion and relief. Behind him walked Daimon’s mother, her presence calm and serene amidst the chaos.A collective sigh of relief went through the group as they rushed forward to meet them. Veronica, her eyes wide with concern, immediately approached Alex.“Take her inside” She urged, her vo
(Author’s POV)Daimon’s sharp eyes darted around the crumbling chamber, his expression darkening. His monstrous army shifted uneasily, growling in confusion as the shaking intensified.Then, with a deafening crack, a hole formed in the air…just like the ones Daimon used to traverse realms. But this one was different, its edges glowing with a fierce golden light that seemed to purify the dark energy surrounding it.Daimon’s eyes narrowed in confusion and alarm. Before he could react, a figure stepped through the hole… Alex emerged, his aura radiating fury and determination, his eyes blazing with the primal rage of a protective mate. His fists were clenched, and his every step seemed to shake the ground beneath him.“Daimon!” Ale
(Evelyn’s POV)Next day, I opened my eyes to see a few of the monstrous creatures surrounding me. The second I stood up, they dragged me through the dim, foreboding corridors of Daimon’s realm. The walls seemed alive, pulsing with a dark, sinister energy. Despite my resistance, their grip was unyielding, forcing me forward into an even darker, colder chamber.The moment I stepped inside, an overwhelming heat washed over me. The center of the room was dominated by a vast pit of glowing, bubbling lava, casting an eerie orange glow over everything. Around the edges of the chamber stood Daimon’s monstrous army, their grotesque forms motionless yet intimidating. Their glowing eyes fixed on me as if awaiting a command.At the far end of the room, Daimon sat on a massive obsidian throne, his posture casua
(Evelyn’s POV)I'm not sure how many days had passed since I was kidnapped, but every day I woke up with the hope of being back home in Alex's arms.I was sitting on the cold, stone floor of the room Daimon had confined me in. The air was thick with a malevolent aura, but I refused to let it break me. My hand rested on my stomach, which I now subconsciously cradled whenever I felt the overwhelming despair creeping in. My voice was soft but firm as I spoke to the child growing within me."Your father is strong," I murmured, my eyes distant as I envisioned Alex."He will find us. I know he will. He won't stop until we're safe in his arms... You’re so loved already, little one. You’re our hope...our strength”.
(Evelyn’s POV)My eyes fluttered open, head heavy and throbbing. I blinked several times, trying to adjust to my surroundings. The sky above me was a swirling mix of dark purples and crimson reds, streaked with jagged lightning that seemed to crackle without sound. The ground beneath me was solid, yet it shimmered faintly as though made of some otherworldly material. Twisted trees with blackened trunks and blood-red leaves loomed in the distance, their shadows casting eerie shapes across the barren landscape.This wasn’t Earth.My breath hitched as the realization sank in. I pushed myself up, my body trembling, and tried to make sense of everything. The last thing I remembered was standing at the edge of the battlefield, watching Alex fight. Then…my heart raced, someone had touched me, and everyth
(Alexander’s POV)The conference room in the mansion was thick with tension. Everyone was seated around the large oak table in the center, their faces a mix of determination and worry. Maps, ancient texts, and enchanted artifacts were strewn across the table, but none of it seemed to offer a clear solution. I stood at the head of the table, my fists pressed against its surface as I leaned forward, my gaze dark and focused.“We have to find a way to get into Daimon’s realm,” I said, my voice low but filled with authority.“I don’t care how dangerous it is. Evelyn is in there, and we’re getting her back” My aunt stepped forward.“Alex, we all want Evelyn back, but this isn’t just about wanting. Daimon&
