UNDER THE ALPHA'S UMBRELLA Chapter Forty-One
"What are you doing here?" Evelyn sneered, her tone dripping with disdain."Huh, I see you've got some wings now," Lisa retorted, her eyes cold and her body stiff with resentment.A heavy tension hung in the air between them, thick with unspoken animosity."I live here now," Evelyn declared proudly."What? That's not possible," Lisa snapped, her breath trembling as she gritted her teeth in jealousy.Evelyn let out a soft chuckle, "Grayson offered me the cabin at the back of the house. You can ask Diana if you don't believe me."Lisa’s expression darkened, and she took a step closer, her voice low and dangerous. "You think Grayson will really fall for you? You think you can just waltz in and take everything that belongs to me? He’ll never choose you. He will just sleep with you and toss you away like he did to the rest of us,” Lisa said.Evelyn held her ground, her chin raised slightly as she looked Lisa in the eye. "I am not taking anything from you, Lisa. Grayson is mine, he is dest

The next morning, the sun had barely risen when Evelyn made her way to the training grounds. She had been up early, her thoughts racing with everything that had happened between her and Grayson. The way his eyes had lingered on her the day before... the chemistry that had simmered between them.She knew it was there. She could feel it in every word they exchanged, every glance they shared. And as much as she tried to convince herself it was all just playful flirting, deep down, she knew something deeper was brewing between them.As she approached the training grounds, she saw Grayson already there, his stance commanding, his figure strong and authoritative. His eyes met hers as she walked towards him, and for a moment, there was nothing but a silent understanding between them."You're early," Grayson said, his voice calm but still carrying that underlying edge.Evelyn smiled. "I thought I might get a head start," she replied playfully, her eyes scanning the space around them. It was

Evelyn turned quickly, her heart racing, a flush crept onto her cheeks as she began to make her way toward the edge of the field.Grayson’s eyes followed her retreating figure, a mixture of frustration and something else he couldn’t quite place, stirring in his chest. He clenched his fists, trying to shake off the remnants of their closeness. This was not the time or place for these emotions, not when they were in the middle of preparing for a dangerous mission.Beta Luke caught Grayson’s gaze and gave him a subtle, knowing look, but he didn’t comment on what he’d walked in on. Grayson couldn’t help but feel a twinge of embarrassment—he knew that the chemistry between him and Evelyn wasn’t exactly subtle. But he wasn’t ready to deal with that now. Grayson cleared his throat, pushing the distracting thoughts aside. He quickly turned to the men, who were whispering among themselves about what they had seen.“Let me have your attention,”Grayson said, his voice loud and clear.“The mi

Evelyn ran desperately through the thick woods, the relentless storm belting her with raindrops. The deafening roar of thunder echoed through the trees, filling her with a primal fear that gripped her very soul.As she dashed through the dense forest, a tree suddenly loomed in her path, its outstretched branch tearing through her clothing. Ignoring the searing pain, she pressed forward, knowing her relentless pursuers were hot on her trail and she had no time to spare.Evelyn had witnessed her pack's destruction at the hands of the werewolf hunters leaving her with a sense of loss and helplessness. The ruthless human organization was on a mission to eradicate all werewolves, systematically targeting and destroying packs one by one, leaving death and devastation in their wake.Evelyn had managed to escape from her Pack, but a few of the hunters saw her and gave her a hot chase into the woods.“There,” She heard one of them calling out.She had been spotted, and the hunters raced toward

Grayson stormed into his room, slamming the door behind him in frustration.“Women!” He muttered to himself as he clenched his fist.He remembered how deeply his father had loved his mother, only for her to betray him by running away with her lover, leaving behind him and Diana.His father whom he had always seen as a strong wolf was left shattered, unable to bear the scorn from the Pack after being abandoned by his mate as an Alpha, he tragically took his own life because the pain became too much for him.These memories lingered vividly in Grayson's thoughts. Grayson had succeeded his father and had grown to become like him, fearless and powerful. He had earned his Pack's respect by conquering all the rival packs who posed a threat to them, making his fame spread wide in the West region as the most revered and respectable Alpha.Grayson was determined not to jeopardize everything he had achieved by falling in love with a woman. He had closed off his heart to them and viewed them sim

“What?!” Diana's eyes widened as conflicting emotions stirred within her. On one hand, she felt joy that her brother would finally have a pup, but on the other hand, she feared he might reject Lisa and the pup.Diana quickly opened the door to her office and ushered Lisa inside. She scanned the corridor to ensure that no one was within earshot of their conversation. She closed the door when she was sure no one was there and made Lisa sit in a chair, she sat in front of her.“Are you sure of what you are saying, Lisa?” Diana asked.“I am Diana, why would I lie about something of this magnitude?” Lisa confirmed.Diana paced her office as she thought about the situation at hand. She looked at her friend and could see that she was so worried. Why would she not be? Grayson had discarded her and now she found himself carrying his pup. What if he rejects the pup too?Diana walked back to her friend, enveloping her in a comforting embrace, she solemnly said to her, “I swear by the Moon Godde

Evelyn stared at Alpha Grayson who had suddenly stopped in his tracks looking startled.She found herself captivated by the alluring blend of Sandalwood and blueberry musk emanating from him.A rush of emotion swept over her as she stared at the man who stood tall and proud, exuding an air of confidence and authority. His chiseled jawline, piercing gray eyes, and strong presence would command attention in any room. His broad shoulders and muscular build gave him an aura of power that seemed to radiate from within and made him stand out.“This must be the Alpha,” Evelyn mused to herself.Time seemed to slow down as the world around her faded away, leaving only her and this dangerously handsome Alpha locked in a silent exchange of emotions. At that moment, she felt a surge of adrenaline, a fluttering in her chest, and an overwhelming sense of warmth spreading through her body.Suddenly, a red line emerged from Grayson's wrist, causing him to groan out in frustration, "No, No!"

Grayson headed directly to his office, and as he approached the entrance, he turned and firmly said to Beta Luke who was still following him, “I would like to be alone.” Beta Luke respectfully bowed and left Grayson to be alone. Diana tried to follow Grayson into the office, but he closed the door in her face and locked it from inside.Grayson vented his frustration by pounding his fist on the wall as soon as he entered his office. “'What is happening to me?” he thought. “Why did that girl affect me so deeply?”“She is our mate,” He heard Kyle saying to him.“I don't want a mate,” Grayson replied to his wolf but a heavy feeling settled in his heart as the words left his lips.His hands trembled, his heart pounded erratically, and sweat glistened on his forehead as fear consumed him. His worst nightmare was unfolding before his eyes and it appeared he had no control over it.“Damn the fucking bond” he cursed out.He wanted to kick her out of the pack to never see her again, but he

"Are you coming?" Grayson called out to Evelyn as he reached the door and noticed she wasn't following him."I am," Evelyn replied, giggling softly.They walked back to Grayson's house in silence. Each step was filled with unspoken words, their minds occupied with thoughts and emotions they couldn't yet express.“Why are we going to your house?" Evelyn asked, finally breaking the silence."Don't you need a place to stay?" Grayson replied."Do you have a room for me in your house?" Evelyn asked, a hint of curiosity in her voice."There is a small cabin at the back of the house, you can stay there, if you want," Grayson answered calmly."What about your sister? Will she be okay with it?" Evelyn pressed."Let me worry about my sister," Grayson firmly replied.They arrived at Grayson's house, and he led Evelyn to the back, where a cozy cabin stood, adjacent to the gym area.Evelyn stepped into the cabin, her eyes scanning the cozy space. Though small, it had everything she needed—a well-d

The elders left the room one by one as the hearing ended, their footsteps echoing down the hall as they dispersed."Are you alright?" Beta Luke asked, noticing Evelyn staring blankly, lost in her thoughts."I'll be fine," Evelyn replied softly.Don't think too much about the punishment, It’s nothing too serious. Our pack members rarely allow outsiders to care for their elderly or sick. The work you'll be doing mostly involves keeping the pack grounds clean, which isn’t even a heavy task—the servants handle most of it. So don’t let it weigh on you," Beta Luke said with a gentle tone, trying to lift her spirits."Thank you, Beta," Evelyn said, offering a small but genuine smile.Beta Luke gave her a nod before quietly departing, leaving Evelyn and Grayson alone in the room.Evelyn stood and walked to the window, her posture slumped, her eyes downcast as she stared outside into the open space, taking in fresh air.Grayson also got up from his seat and stood a few paces away from Evelyn,

FLASHBACK TO THE STEPS LISA TOOK TO MAKE HER PLAN WORK.“Where can we get blood from?” Lisa said to Missy as they got home.“Can’t you draw from yourself?” Missy replied."It won't be enough to fake a miscarriage. I need a large quantity so that it will be more convincing," Lisa said."Hmm, where can we get blood?" Missy wondered, her eyes suddenly drifting toward the cat.“What about her?” Missy said, referring to Lisa's cat."Hell no, that's my pet," Lisa snapped.“"Think about the bigger picture, Lisa. She's worth the sacrifice," Missy urged, trying to convince her."No, not her. She's like family," Lisa protested."Then where are we supposed to get that much blood? Should we go hunting?" Missy asked."Let's give that a try," Lisa agreed.Lisa stepped out of the house, the chill of the night air biting her skin. The moon hung high, casting pale beams through the thick canopy of trees as she ventured into the woods.She scoured the underbrush, eyes darting for any sign of movement—a

“I will do no such thing,” Lisa protested, her eyes flickering around the room, avoiding direct contact with anyone as if searching for an escape. Her breath became shallow, quickening as the weight of the situation pressed down on her.“Why not? Are you hiding anything?” Grayson probed.“I am not hiding anything,” Lisa retorted sharply.“If you are not hiding anything, then change into your wolf form and let's see if these furs that were picked on the road belong to you or not,” Grayson said.“Are you sure of what you saw, young man?” Robert probed.“I swear on my life. I would not dare to lie before the Alpha and the council of elders,” Tom said.“Evelyn kindly shift into your wolf form” Robert commanded.Evelyn closed her eyes as she took a deep breath allowing Viola to take over.Her human form disappeared, replaced by a majestic wolf standing tall and strong.The wolf's coat was a soft, creamy hue, almost glowing with an ethereal beauty.Grayson’s eyes locked onto Evelyn’s wolf,

"That is why I said 'suspect,' Alpha Grayson. I haven't called her a criminal yet. Her ability to defend herself will prove whether she's innocent or not," Robert retorted sharply."Her innocence should not even be in question at this hearing. The trial should focus on whether she pushed Lisa or not. How did she become a suspect in a murder case that occurred while she was locked away in a cell?" Grayson said."Why are you speaking on her behalf, Alpha Grayson? Let her defend herself," James said.“I was not talking to you, James. I have the authority to speak on behalf of anyone I choose to. And as your Alpha, I command you to never speak out of turn during this hearing. You will only speak when you are asked to," Grayson declared authoritatively.The elders gasped in shock, their eyes widening and mouths slightly agape, exchanging uneasy glances.The air grew heavy with tension, their disbelief palpable as they processed the harsh reprimand directed at one of their own.

“What do they want this time?” Grayson muttered, a hint of disdain in his voice.“Lisa and Evelyn have been summoned as well,” Declan added.“Is the hearing now?” Grayson asked.“Yes, my Lord, it is,” Declan said.“Alright, you can go. We will join the elders shortly,” Grayson said, dismissing Declan with a wave of hand.“They must have heard about Clara's death, I think that's why they are summoning us,” Beta Luke said.“Clara? Who is that?” Diana inquired, raising her eyebrows.“The servant who claimed to have witnessed what happened between Lisa and Evelyn,” Beta Luke clarified.“Oh my goodness! She’s dead? How?” Diana gasped, covering her mouth in shock.Grayson rose to his feet with a steady, purposeful motion, his movements carrying a quiet intensity. His posture straightened, and his shoulders squared as he turned toward the door.“Are you leaving now?” Beta Luke asked.“Yes, let's get this done once and for all,” Grayson replied with a shrug.“Alright, I will go with you,” Bet
