Evelyn “I heard you signed the deal with Alpha Drake.” Lucian's voice resonated to my ears, stopping me in my tracks. A smile curled on my lips. I hadn't expected the news to remain a secret, and I had even planned to tell him myself. I turned back around, folding my arms across my chest. "I see it was about time I stepped forward. And I know you the news will come to you, without the need of me telling you." I replied. Lucian's brows knitted together. I wasn't sure if he was unaware he was doing that or if he did it intentionally. I know he had asked Harold to keep an eye on my every mood. "Meaning?" he asked, clearly puzzled. I didn't have much time to waste there. The way he had handled me earlier had only worsened my mood. If it weren't for his mother asking me to bring him lunch because Maya was still preparing the rest of the soup, and the other maids were occupied, I would have stayed far away from Lucian. His mother had mentioned that Lucian didn't like his food to be delay

Evelyn"Gabriel, how do you see this? I don't understand this phrase. Does that mean if we fail to meet up to the standards, we'd be at a loss?" I said, passing the laptop to Gabriel. Alpha Drake had sent over the drafted contract to us. We were going through it to make sure everything was good before we signed it. Contracts are bound by terms and conditions. We can't rush into things just because we want to achieve our goals faster.Talking about goals, Lucian and I haven't interacted much. I haven't even seen him since the day I left his room. Maybe because I was busy with the deal. I leave the house early and come back around evening time. Erica is handling Mason quite well, so I don't have to worry about taking him around to and fro from Daekin pack to Mooncrest pack. It's safer for him to stay in one place."No, we won't be at a loss. Why do you have me? If I'm not here, I'm sure you'd be panicking just because of this single sentence," Gabriel answered. I didn't miss the wink he

LucianI found it funny seeing myself holding a baby. Not just any baby, but the woman I claimed to hate—no, I do hate her. She's too prideful and full of herself, thinking she's the strongest woman alive. And her mouth, it never stops running.As weird as it felt, a sense of peace engulfed my heart when I held the little boy. It was as if we could communicate through our hearts. His nanny and my mother had tried to calm him down, but to no avail. However, as soon as I crouched down to the baby cradle level, the boy went quiet. I wanted to stand up and leave, but I found myself staring at the boy, and before I knew it, I was scooping him into my arms.Now, with his mother sitting in front of me, her eyes locked onto mine, they weren't doing any favors for my mental state. My wolf growled inside, reminding me of my goal, my mission to thwart whatever plans she might have regarding my pack. But every day was a new discovery with her.“My pack isn't a cheap pack, you know,” she replied t

Evelyn A yawn escaped from me as I sat up on the bed, feeling aches all over my body. My eyes immediately landed on Mason, who was sleeping peacefully beside me. I couldn't help but smile at his innocent face. "My cute troublemaker," I whispered, leaning forward to plant a gentle kiss on his cheek.As I leaned back, my smile faded as I recalled the events of last night. I hadn't forgotten a single detail, and I couldn't believe I had let my guard down with Lucian. I wasn't actually that drunk, just a bit tipsy. When he asked who I had been drinking with, I had mentioned Gabriel, knowing it would provoke a reaction from Lucian, maybe even make him jealous.Jealousy? Why did I want him to be jealous? I wanted him to care, to feel something for me, something strong enough to affect him. I couldn't deny that I had enjoyed the kiss, and part of me wanted more. We had kissed right outside his door, but it had been cut short when Mason started crying. I had left abruptly, without looking ba

Lucian"I think this time around, we should approach it differently. We've been following the late Alpha's plan for all these years," Frank, the pack minister, suggested. I had convened a meeting to discuss the upcoming carnival event, a tradition established by my father. Every mid-year, the pack's leader organized carnival activities to bring the pack members closer together.Carnivals were nothing new to me. In the past, I had often skipped these events to pursue my activities outside the pack. I saw little value in forming bonds with the pack members. Occasionally, my father would insist that I participate even for a couple of hours, but I would always slip away.Now, circumstances were different. I was no longer that young boy. The weight of responsibilities rested on my shoulders. I might not be enthusiastic about the carnival, but I had to uphold the pack's traditions. That's why I had gathered the senior pack members who had been with us since my father's time. Their insights

Evelyn “Nice. I like the scent. And the blends are smooth,” Alpha Drake commended as we toured the coffee factory. His satisfaction signaled that we wouldn't have any problems with our deal.“Do you want to check other parts?” Gabriel asked.“I don’t think I need to check any more parts. I’m impressed by this. Let’s do this!” Gabriel and I exchanged looks and a smile spread across my face. Gabriel gave me a thumbs-up in return.“Thank you for your trust, Alpha Drake. While we are at it, why don’t I show you the perfumery plants?” Gabriel suggested.“Sure.”“I will head back first then.” I left Gabriel to take the lead and made my way back to the pack house. On the way, I decided to stop by Mrs. Nora’s house.“Hello,” I greeted with excitement as she opened the door.“Evelyn. You finally remember this old woman,” she said, inviting me inside. I hugged her tightly. “I didn’t forget you, Mrs. Nora. I was busy with work.”We settled on her sofa, and I plopped down. Mrs. Nora gave me a st

Evelyn For the life of me, when Lucian mentioned we would be going for a war, the only thing that gripped my heart was fear. I had even begun thinking about how Mason would be able to cope without me. Obviously, war means a serious fight. I might get out alive, and I might end up losing my life. Several scenarios and scenes had gone through my head as Lucian drove to the said war ground, only for me to see myself sitting in front of an old man with Lucian attacking him with his eyes.At that moment, I realized Lucian had toyed with my emotions and made me believe I was going for a war. I was just waiting for us to leave the place so I could give him a piece of my mind. But the way the heated conversation between him and the old man was going, I don't think we would leave the place anytime soon. It felt as if they were actually in a war. That must be it."Alpha Caden, you know I'm not a man who follows people around to get his work done. I do things at the comfort of my pack, but to m

Evelyn "Erica, can you help me hook this necklace?" I got Erica's attention as she was getting Mason ready. I stood in front of the vanity mirror, all set for my dinner meeting with Gabriel.Wait... he didn’t say it was a date. Did he?“You’re looking gorgeous, Ma’am. As always,” Erica commented as she clasped the hook of my necklace. I ran my fingers over the small pearl. Gabriel gifted me the necklace three days after I gave birth to Mason. He said it wasn’t a gift, but I knew he was just shy to admit it. I was sure he'd be happy when he sees me wearing it tonight. I hadn't worn it since then.“Thank you, Erica,” I said after admiring myself for a moment. I knew I didn't look bad. I had chosen a dress that would complement my figure. Don’t get me wrong, it wasn't tight, but it had an open back and a one-inch slit in the front, making it slightly revealing—not too much, though. Gabriel isn’t a lustrous man unlike Lucian. You can’t deny that he made you feel good with his touches an

Evelyn Two months later Two months have passed since the turbulent events that brought both Gabriel and Lucian together as co-alphas. It's been a time of adjustment and change for our pack, and for my family as well. Lucian and Gabriel, against all odds, had found a way to work together as leaders. It wasn't always smooth sailing, and they still had their moments of disagreement, but they managed to keep the peace. As for Mason, he continued to grow and flourish. Both Lucian and Gabriel shared responsibilities in his upbringing, and it warmed my heart to see the bond forming between them and my son. The unity in the pack grew stronger too. The members had initially been skeptical of the co-alpha arrangement, but seeing the two powerful leaders working together for the greater good had won their respect and loyalty.Despite the challenges and interruptions in our personal life, Lucian and I had also thrived as a couple. Our mating bond had deepened, making our connection stronger

Lucian The room's tension was palpable as Alpha Drake and Alpha Dominic locked their eyes on Gabriel and me. It was clear they hadn't anticipated such a smooth resolution. Gabriel spoke up, breaking the silence, and leaned forward."Alpha Drake, I'm sure you understand the consequences of breaching a contract," Gabriel said firmly. "You already agreed to do business with us. You can't back out just because you've received a better offer. That's not how business works."I nodded in agreement, backing Gabriel's words. "It's important to honor your commitments. We all need to uphold our end of the deal."Alpha Drake and Alpha Dominic exchanged glances, seemingly caught off guard by our united stance.Alpha Drake sighed, clearly frustrated by the turn of events. "Well, this wasn't what we expected. We'll have to consider our options and figure out a solution. But for now, it seems like you both have made up your minds."We could sense the tension in the room easing a bit as Alpha Drake s

Evelyn The room felt heavy with tension as Gabriel and Lucian decided on the Alpha competition, with Mrs. Victoria's agreement. My heart couldn't help but race, and a sense of unease settled within me. The outcome of this competition was a matter of immense concern.Mrs. Victoria took a deep breath and spoke up, her voice trembling slightly. "I just hope that this competition doesn't lead to violence. Our pack's safety should come first, and I don't want anyone to get hurt."Both Gabriel and Lucian acknowledged her worry, and I couldn't shake the feeling of unease that hung in the air. The fate of our pack and the relationships between the brothers were at a crossroads, and it was hard to predict the outcome.I knew there were challenging times ahead for Mooncrest, and I could only hope that the competition would be resolved peacefully, without harm to our pack members. The nerves wouldn't leave me, though, and I could only wait and see what the future held for us.**As the time of

Lucian I paced around the room as the revelation sank in. If I said I wasn't shocked by the news, I'd be lying. I had never imagined something like this would happen. I turned to my mother, who was seated with her hands rested on her lap, with Evelyn by her side."Why, mother? Why did you have to hide such a truth from me? Why now?" I lamented.My mother's voice quivered as she looked at me with remorse in her eyes. "I'm sorry, Lucian. I never anticipated that keeping this truth hidden would lead to such a predicament for our family."I ran my hand through my hair, the weight of the situation pressing down on me. "Even if Gabriel is my brother, he has no right to the Alpha position. Not after everything I've done for this pack. It's not going to happen.""Have a seat." She said. I didn't make a move and also my eyes didn't waver on hers. I took a deep breath and turned my emotions still raw. "Mother, I don't want to hear what you or Gabriel has to say. Nothing is going to change my

EvelynLucian rushed back inside and hastily put on a shirt and jeans. I followed suit, wearing my nighties from last night, my heart pounding with worry. Together, we hurried out of the room and made our way to Mrs. Victoria's.“What happened mother?” Lucian asked the moment we stepped inside.Mrs. Victoria's frail voice quivered as she spoke, "I... I couldn't breathe, Lucian. Something was crushing my chest." She coughed weakly, struggling to catch her breath.Lucian knelt beside the bed, holding her hand gently. "We'll get you the help you need, mother. Just hang in there."I stood by their side, my heart aching for Mrs. Victoria, feeling helpless in the face of her distress.Lucian swiftly pressed a button on his phone and called for medical assistance, and within minutes, the pack's doctor arrived to tend to his ailing mother.My heart pounded as I watched the doctor examine Mrs. Victoria. Lucian's concern mirrored the fear I felt deep down."What is wrong with her, doctor?" Luci

Evelyn My mind was somehow at ease after finally telling the truth about Mason being his son. It felt as if a weight had been lifted from my shoulders. Since then, he wouldn't let Mason out of his sight.At some point, I felt like he doesn’t even have time for me. Whenever he came to his mother's side, his first statement was about Mason. We were still facing problems from other packs, although Lucian had taken care of the smaller packs. However, Alpha Drake and Alpha Dominic still remained threats to us.As for the Deakin pack, we had them under control. Mrs. Nora had already explained to them, and I had also played my part. I had apologized for the problem the news had caused. A knock sounded from the door followed by Lucian's voice. "Evelyn, are you there?" I had intentionally locked the door, knowing he would want to enter. I wanted to see how he would take Mason away."Yes. But I don't want to open the door. I know you're here for Mason, not me," I retorted with a glare, as if

Lucian "Harold, prepare for security. Our pack is under attack," I declared as Harold entered the room."Alpha Drake and Alpha Dominic have joined forces. We have to protect our pack's people. Prepare our men for the fight!"I grabbed my phone and started to move towards the door. "Where to, Master?" Harold inquired."I have to make sure Evelyn and Mother are safe. Do as I say. I will check up on them."As I rushed out of the room, I couldn’t shake off the worry for Evelyn and my mother. The unity of Alpha Drake and Alpha Dominic was a serious threat, and the safety of our pack members was my top priority.I contacted our head of security and updated him on the situation. “Gather all available forces and secure the packhouse,” I instructed him. “Make sure our people are protected.”With my heart pounding and my mind racing, I hurried towards mother’s part, praying that Evelyn and my mother were safe. The future of our pack depended on our ability to defend it.As I entered the house,

Evelyn Lucian and I embarked on the journey to the company where the conference would be held. The grand hall was swamped with reporters and journalists, all waiting for him to address the issue at hand.As we walked in, Lucian squeezed my hand reassuringly. "Don't worry, Evelyn. We'll get through this together."I nodded, appreciating his support. "I know we will. Just be yourself, and they'll see the truth."With that, we made our way to the podium, ready to face the awaiting crowd.Lucian cleared his throat and began speaking into the microphone. "Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for being here today. I'm sure you've all seen the recent news that has raised questions about our pack. I want to address these concerns openly."He continued to speak, explaining the situation and emphasizing our commitment to integrity and unity within the pack. I stood by his side, watching as he faced the crowd with confidence and determination.As he finished, the reporters bombarded him with questio

EvelynA chuckle escaped me as Lucian playfully tried to tickle me. We walked inside the house together, and Lucian’s mother turned to look at us. I composed myself quickly, realizing her serious expression. She was holding Mason in her arms.“Mother,” I greeted, attempting to maintain a straight face.She didn’t hold back. “I see you two no longer stay in the pack. Care to tell me what you’ve been up to, Lucian? And you, Evelyn, looks like you don’t care about Mason anymore. I’ve turned into a babysitter.”Lucian and I exchanged glances, struggling to contain our laughter. Mrs. Victoria’s stern gaze was enough to make anyone crack a smile.Lucian managed to keep a straight face as he spoke to his mother. “Mother, it’s not like that. We’re still very much a part of the pack, but we needed some time alone.”Mrs. Victoria’s expression softened, and she couldn’t resist a small smile. “I know, dear. I’m just teasing you. It’s good to see you both happy together.”I sighed in relief as Mas
