I was feeling exhausted, my body aching from the strenuous effort of the past two days spent helping to repair the damage at the Crescent Moon Packhouse. The aftermath of the attack had taken its toll on everyone, and both our pack and theirs were working tirelessly to rebuild.
As I packed my belongings, preparing for our imminent return to America, I observed Amy walking past me. I marveled at how quickly she had bounced back from the recent turmoil.
"To be honest, I can't wait to go. This whole ordeal got to me. Werewolves, attacks, competition. I'm dying for a long bath and a movie night, just the two of us," Amy remarked as she settled down beside me.
"Me too," I admitted with a tired yet genuine smile.
"Let's head downstairs. The car must be waiting for us already, and the flight is going to be long," I suggested, rising from my seat.
Amy swiftly closed her suitcase, and together, we made our way towards

Eve’s POV When we finally arrived home, I made good on my promise to Amy, and we indulged in a movie night. It was a simple pleasure, but everything felt remarkably right. For the first time in a long while, I was genuinely happy. As we settled in, the comforting glow of the TV casting a warm ambiance, Amy finally broached the question I knew was coming. "Spill the details, Eve. What happened between you and Ryan?" she asked, her curiosity evident. I chuckled, realizing I had anticipated this interrogation. It was time to fill her in on the intricate details. "Well, you know how Ryan usually starts," I began, and Amy couldn't help but laugh. "Like an asshole?" she interjected, earning a smile from me. "No, this time it's different. He's still Ryan, but there's a change. He listens and genuinely tries to fix things. Of course, the occasional bout of alpha jealousy is still there, but we're working on it."

Eve’s POV:The next morning, Amy and I embarked on the journey to the pack house. The car ride was shrouded in an unusual silence, only broken by the rhythmic hum of the engine and the occasional crunch of candy."Are you nervous?" Amy's question punctuated the quiet, her hand dipping into a bag of M&M's.When Amy got nervous, chocolate was her go-to remedy. I stole a glance and noted that this was her second packet of M&M's; the third one, I suspected, was discreetly stowed away in the glove compartment."A little, how about you?" I replied, my grip on the steering wheel tight, my knuckles turning white. Despite my efforts, I couldn't seem to relax."I have a feeling I could gobble up at least three more of those packets," she confessed, her candor providing a small measure of comfort.My anxiety lingered, refusing to dissipate. I shook my head, attempting to shake off the tension that gripped me. It felt absurd; I was going home, so why was I so nervous?"Can we stop at a gas statio

Eve’s POVIt had been two long years since I stepped foot into the territory that was once my home, and the anticipation hung heavy in the air. I could almost taste the mix of anxiety and excitement, a strange cocktail that accompanied the prospect of facing my past.Amy stood beside me. "Ready for this, Eve?" she asked, her voice cutting through the early morning stillness.I nodded, my gaze fixed on the house. "As ready as I'll ever be."We walked towards the heart of the pack territory, where most of the houses and communal areas were. The sun was still high in the sky, but the warmth didn't reach the chill that seemed to have settled over the pack.First, I spotted Jake, one of my old buddies from the pack. We used to pull pranks together and laugh until our stomachs hurt. I flashed him a smile, but the moment he saw me, his expression turned from confusion to a mix of surprise and distrust. It was like I had grown two heads or something."Hey, Jake! Long time no see," I greeted,

Amy and I decided that meeting up with old friends was enough for today. We were both in a bad mood so we headed to Ryan's office.I missed him so much, especially now that I saw him less often; I couldn't wait to be with him.As soon as we entered, however, Amy stood in front of me with her hands on her hips."Hey, Alpha Ryan, mind explaining why no one in this whole dang pack knew about you planning to bring back Eve as Luna?" Amy shot straight, with no time for beating around the bush.Ryan, with his desk cluttered with papers, looked up, and his eyes met mine. I raised an eyebrow at him, a playful spark in my gaze."Well, hello to you too, Amy," he said with a half-smile, his eyes holding a warmth that eased the tension in the room.Amy wasn't going to let him off easy. "I heard you promised to make Eve Luna again once we are here. Well, we are here."Ryan sighed, a mix of exhaustion and resignation evident in his expression, as he put down his pen and gave us his full attention.

Cari’s POVTwo years agoYet another one of Luna's extravagant balls. Everything was impeccably perfect, as usual. I despised these events; they served as a constant reminder of how flawless her life appeared.The theme of the party was Moon Goddess, with everything bathed in white and silver to mimic the moon. Eve wore a stunning white dress that clung to her figure perfectly. Her hands, adorned with fine glitter, caught and reflected the moon's rays.She might as well have been the Moon Goddess personified. Ryan's unyielding gaze on her drove me insane. I clutched my cocktail glass so tightly, I wondered why it hadn't shattered yet.I hated her; she had it all, especially him. I had never desired anything more than Ryan. When I turned eighteen, my first order of business was to approach him, convinced he was my mate.The disappointment of finding no connection between us didn't deter me. He could have chosen me as his chosen mate, but when Eve came of age, he lost control.He marked

I woke up in the morning, the anticipation of the day ahead simmering beneath my skin. The first light of dawn filtered through the curtains, casting a soft glow in my room.The room was bathed in a quiet stillness as I rose from the bed, my movements purposeful yet betraying the undercurrent of nerves. The floor felt cool beneath my feet as I made my way to the wardrobe. Today was the day – the day when the carefully woven threads of my plan would intertwine with fate.The clothes I chose carried an air of confidence, a deliberate choice to project an image of normalcy. Descending the staircase, each step echoed with a sense of determination.I headed to the common dining room where everyone was already gathered."Cari, you left early yesterday," remarked my brother Jackson the moment I took a sip from my coffee."I was tired," I replied casually, attempting to divert his attention.But Jackson wasn't easily deterred; he decided to press me further.“You basically spend the whole tim

The border loomed before me, a threshold between the familiar territory of the pack and the unknown realm where I was to meet the mysterious werewolf. The sun dipped low on the horizon, casting long shadows across the landscape. My heart thudded in my chest as I stepped hesitantly into the neutral ground. He was already there, waiting. His silhouette stood against the backdrop of the setting sun, a figure draped in shadows. As I approached, his eyes met mine, and a knowing smirk played on his lips. "So, you decided to come," he remarked, the hint of satisfaction evident in his voice. I squared my shoulders, my nerves masked by a facade of determination. "Let's get straight to the point. What do you want, and how can you help me?" He chuckled, the sound sending shivers down my spine. "Impatient, aren't we? Patience is a virtue, my dear Cari." I clenched my fists, resisting the urge to snap back at him. "Cut the cryptic talk. I have things to do, and I don't trust easily." He circ

In the morning, I intentionally skipped breakfast, opting to avoid the company of other werewolves. My focus was solely on the impending day and the crucial tasks ahead. Despite a few friends attempting to engage in conversation, I swiftly ended any interaction. Nervous energy coursed through me, urging me to distance myself from everyone, ensuring no one would suspect that something was amiss. Obsessively checking my watch, I peered out of my window, eagerly anticipating Eve's departure for the mall, where our supposed date was scheduled. I had fed her a fabricated story about needing to go to work early in town, setting the stage for the deceit to come. With the knowledge that Ryan's flight had already landed, and he was far from our location, I calculated that the most important warriors would accompany him.

Raven didn't immediately answer the question. He looked embarrassed and broken. Ryan invited him into the dining room and offered him coffee. As we settled around the table, several Omegas bustled around, their movements careful and purposeful. They poured coffee with a silent efficiency, arranging an array of sweets that adorned the tabletop. A silent acknowledgment lingered in the air as they tactfully avoided meeting Raven's eyes. "What happened?" I asked again, my voice soft, the room now hushed with the anticipation of Raven's response. "I didn't come for sympathy, but I had nowhere else to go," Raven began, his eyes downcast, avoiding the weight of our gazes. Ryan, sensing Raven's vulnerability, gestured towards the chair, silently offering a seat. "When I got home from Italy, my father was very angry that I hadn't been able to get Ryan to sign the peace treaty," Raven continued. “Did he do this to you?” Ryan's question cut through the air, his eyes ablaze with restrained a

Ryan's eyes darkened with a primal intensity, a spark of possession that thrilled and comforted simultaneously. Then he pulled away from me."If we keep going, I won't be able to stop, love," he tells me.I can feel his body tense in an attempt to hold back his desire."I don't want you to stop, Ryan," I whisper to him."Are you sure, Eve? I've been through a lot today," he begins carefully.I can see him not getting close to me because if he did, he would lose control. But I've never been more ready."Ryan, I know what I want. I want you now, to be yours in every sense of the word, and I want you to mark me." I say and get up from the bed.I take a step towards him, and he has undressed me completely and is now looking at my body. Then his eyes return to mine, obviously seeing my determination because he crosses the distance between us and sinks his lips into mine.Our kiss is a mixture of passion, need, and the unspoken connection that binds us.

As we pulled into the packhouse driveway, the weight of the recent events pressed down on my shoulders. The familiar surroundings, usually buzzing with lively energy, now stood in solemn contrast to the somber reality we faced. "Eve, love, I'm going to go talk to some members of the pack. I must inform them of the events. Do you mind if I leave you for a while?" Ryan asked gently. "Not at all. Go and do your job, Ray." I replied. "If there's anything, call me." "Of course," I responded, sealing our brief conversation with a kiss. It was a kiss that held both desperation and reassurance, an anchor in the storm that had swept through our lives. The door closed behind Ryan as he left to address the pack, and I found myself standing in the quiet hallway, the echoes of recent events reverberating in my mind. Seeking solace, I retreated to the kitchen. Mechanically, I poured myself a cup of coffee, the familiar routine offering a semblance of normalcy amid the chaos. The warmth of the

Eve's POV: We dressed quickly, the weight of the situation hanging in the air. The revelation of Cari's suicide attempt shook me to the core. Her confessions from yesterday had been a storm, but this... this was a hurricane of despair. "You don't have to come if you don't want to," Ryan said, concern etched on his face. "No, I will come. We're together now, Ryan, and we'll get through this together." He nodded, and his hand found mine. The silent support was enough to bolster my courage. The corridors of the hospital blurred as we hurried to Cari's room, the tension thick between us. Outside the room, the muffled voices of Cari's father and brother reached us. I knocked on the door, and the old Gamma, worn and sleep-deprived, opened it for us, a mixture of exhaustion and worry etched on his face. "Alpha," he greeted, nodding respectfully. "Luna." We entered, and I stood by Cari's bed. Her gaze flickered to me briefly before returning to her brother. "Cari, this must not happen

Eve's POV My mind was a whirlwind of confusion and suspicion as we grappled with the aftermath of Cari's betrayal. The room echoed with the weight of unanswered questions, and I couldn't shake off the gnawing uncertainty that lingered in the air. "So, who the hell was the perpetrator?" I wondered aloud, my voice laced with frustration. "Someone infiltrated our pack, gave poison to Cari, wiped away the real evidence, and planted that damn wolfsbane in my jewelry box." Ryan's expression mirrored my unease, his eyes narrowing as he processed the intricacies of the situation. "We need to find the person who gave Cari the wolfsbane. That stranger is the key to unraveling this mess. He is the one who orchestrated everything." I nodded, the gravity of the situation sinking in. The betrayal ran deeper than we initially thought, and the pieces of this sinister puzzle were scattered, waiting to be put together. "Cari, are you sure you d

Eve’s POV The room fell into an eerie silence, with only the sound of Cari's muffled sobs breaking the tension. Her eyes were filled with remorse as she looked at Ryan, desperately seeking forgiveness. "How exactly did you do it, Cari?" Ryan asked thoughtfully, his brows furrowed with suspicion. "Something doesn't add up." Cari blinked at him in confusion, her eyes searching for a way to deflect the intensity of Ryan's gaze. She glared at him, a defensive shield against the probing questions. "I don't understand the question," she said. "I want to know everything. How did you get the wolfbane, where did you sprinkle it in an attempt to poison Eve, everything? I want to know everything," growled Ryan, the authority in his voice cutting through the room. I walked over to Ryan, sensing the escalating tension, and I put my hand on him, attempting to calm him down. His grip tightens, a silent acknowledgment of my presence. "Did you steal it?" I asked in turn, my voice steady. "No,

Eve’s POV After the interrogation, a contemplative hush settled in the room as everyone processed the unexpected twist in the tale. Seeking comfort, I nestled on Ryan's lap, finding solace in his reassuring embrace amid the disquieting revelations. Cari's admission that she had planned to poison me to remove me from Ryan's life hung in the air. It was a revelation that sent a shiver down my spine, as I hadn't fathomed the depth of Cari's resentment. Memories of our shared high school history, marked by occasional clashes, suddenly took on a darker hue. I always tried to be nice to her, I never reacted harshly even to her snarky remarks when I was Luna. I couldn't believe she despised me enough to want to kill me. I rose from my seat with determination, making my way decisively towards the interrogation room. "Where are you going?" Ryan asked, confusion etched on his face. "I have more questions for her. That can't be the whole story," I explained. Ryan followed me, signaling fo
