“Oh my goodness! Are you alright?” Evelyn gasped as she entered the kitchen and noticed Lisa's injured hand.“Oh, this? I accidentally cut myself,” Lisa explained, taken aback by Evelyn's sudden appearance in the kitchen.“Aw, poor you! You should be more careful,” Evelyn said sympathetically as she moved closer to Lisa to examine the wound.Lisa recoiled slightly, not wanting Evelyn to catch sight of the wound since it wasn't caused by a knife."No need to worry, I'm a wolf. It'll heal in no time," Lisa reassured.“Okay…” Evelyn responded, surprised by Lisa's sudden behavior.“What can I help you with?” Evelyn asked, offering to assist Lisa.“Do not bother yourself, please. Just relax, I'll take care of everything here,” Lisa responded warmly.“I hope you are not thinking I don't know how to cook because I used to be an Alpha's daughter,” Evelyn said jokingly."Oh no, not at all. You're my guest, so it's my pleasure to cook for you," Lisa replied graciously.“Alright, if you insist,”
“I came to tell you I am leaving and to thank you for your hospitality,” Evelyn said before turning to walk away with her heart broken by Grayson's attitude."Stop right there. What did you just say to me? Who did you say is pregnant with my child?" Alpha Grayson asked in bewilderment."Evelyn stopped and turned back to give Grayson a response, “Are you trying to act like you don't know? Your sister told me to leave because you have a chosen mate who is expecting your pup.”“Diana said that?” Grayson asked, puzzled by her sister's actions. She should have been the one convincing Evelyn to stay, not telling her to leave.Evelyn shook her head, puzzled by Grayson's apparent ignorance of the situation. She couldn't shake off the feeling that this was another attempt to humiliate her, so she made up her mind to leave.“Lisa, please show me to the main road. I am ready to leave now. I wished I had listened to you,” Evelyn said.“Alright,” Lisa, taken aback by Evelyn's abrupt outburst, resp
“He's too full of himself,” Evelyn remarked as she walked towards the border with Lisa."I did try to give you a heads-up," Lisa replied, a smug smile playing on her lips as she felt satisfied with Grayson's actions towards Evelyn.“No one has ever spoken to me like that," Evelyn confessed, her feelings hurt by the way Grayson had addressed her.“Sorry about that, it's not Grayson's fault. It is because of what he had been through,” Lisa pointed out.“What has he been through? What is going on with him? Did someone break his heart?” Evelyn asked, her curiosity piqued.“Well, something like that,” Lisa said and went further to explain what had happened to Grayson's father."Oh goodness! That's just awful," Evelyn exclaimed, an expression of shock on her face.“Yeah, Grayson has been treating ladies like trash since then,” Lisa continued, providing more insight.“How is his chosen mate handling the situation?” Evelyn inquired.Lisa let out a subtle breath, "Well…” But before she could c
“I am not lying, please believe me, Diaba, please,” Lisa pleaded desperately, her voice filled with anguish.“I believe you, Lisa. It is okay, stop crying. It is not good for the baby please,” Diana reassured.“I don't want anything from Grayson, I just want him to take responsibility for this child. I don't want to become a laughing stock in the pack for giving birth to a pup who has no father,” Lisa lamented.“That is never going to happen, Lisa, not on my watch,” Diana said.“He doesn't want the child, Diana, he doesn't,” Lisa continued crying, refusing to be consoled.“Lisa, please, stop crying. I already told you if he denies the pregnancy, I will report him to the council of elders,” Diana urged.“Council of elders!!” Beta Luke exclaimed and continued, “I will advise you not to do that, it will further escalate Grayson's anger. You know he hates the council of elders,” “If he continues to deny Lisa's child, I'm afraid I have no choice but to report him,” Diana stated firmly.“G
Grayson was walking through the woods, trying to unwind when he heard a faint cry. He decided to ignore it as he didn't expect anyone would be in the woods.Due to the presence of dangerous creatures in the woods, the pack members rarely ventured in alone.This was why Grayson loved coming into the woods. He found solace in the peace and quietness it offers.He heard the cry the second time, this time it was a little bit louder than the first one and the voice sounded familiar."Who could be out here in the woods at this time of the day?" Grayson said to himself as he made his way toward the direction from which the cry had originated.As he approached the direction in which the sound had come from, he caught sight of a familiar figure with brown hair“Evelyn?” Grayson muttered."Why is she in the woods?" Kyle said, feeling agitated at the sight of Evelyn.Grayson noticed Evelyn grappling to free herself from something, but he couldn't discern what it was from the considerable distanc
Evelyn tried to explain what had happened in the woods to Diana, Lisa, and Beta Luke but they found it hard to believe the story, especially since Evelyn's heel, where the snake had bitten her, was now completely healed."I believe you, Evelyn. Thank goodness Grayson arrived in time to help," Lisa said, gently grasping Evelyn's hand.Diana gave Evelyn a sharp look before walking away from them.“What did he say about you not leaving the pack?” Lisa asked."I didn't even get the chance to ask him about that. I blacked out in the woods after the snake bite," Evelyn explained."Let me ask him," Beta Luke said, staring at Evelyn. He had observed the longing in Grayson's eyes while he was holding Evelyn earlier. He suspected Grayson might be interested in sleeping with Evelyn, which was likely why he was asking her to stay back.“Alpha Grayson,” Beta Luke said as he linked him.“What?” Grayson responded sharply.“Evelyn wants to know why you are stopping her from leaving the pack,” Beta Lu
“Huh, Grayson is a guy! Of course, he did it for the pleasure of it,” Lisa revealed.“Oh my goodness, you must have been so hurt,” Evelyn asked.“Not really. I was not as hurt as when my mate rejected me,” Lisa explained.“But there must have been some feelings you had for Grayson, to have agreed to something like this,” Evelyn remarked.“Not really, I did it for Diana. I owe her a lot. I owe the Woods family a lot. They took me in when I lost my parents,” Lisa said.“You grew up with Grayson and Diana?” Evelyn asked.“Yes,” Lisa responded.“But that doesn't mean you should sacrifice your happiness for them. Grayson is such a jerk, how could he sleep with you when you are practically like his sister, and now he is denying your child” Evelyn protested.Lisa smiled, “Grayson is just acting tough on the outside, and trying to build a wall around his heart so he doesn't get hurt but deep down he is not a bad person. You will find out when you get to know him,” “Get to know him! That's ne
“The council of elders has requested to have a meeting with you,” Beta Luke informed Grayson as he strode into his office. Grayson looked up from the papers he was attending to, his expression tense as he met Beta Luke's gaze with a piercing look.“Council of elders?” Grayson repeated.“Yes,” Beta Luke affirmed.“What business do I have with those bunch of old fools,” Grayson snapped.“Your sister reported the situation with Lisa to them,” Beta Luke informed. Grayson's eyes blazed a fiery red, their intensity piercing through the room as his body shook with anger. His jaw clenched tightly, the muscles in his neck visibly tensed as he struggled to contain his emotions."Warn your wife to tread carefully, she is treading on thin ice with me and I will not spare her because she is my sister," Grayson growled, his voice low and filled with a warning tone.“I tried to warn her but she didn't listen to me,” Beta Luke said.“When is the meeting?” Grayson asked.“Later today,” Beta Luke sai
“Yes, don’t be surprised,” James said, his tone laced with malice. “A lot of us want him dead in this pack.” He leaned in closer, his piercing eyes holding Gilbert’s gaze. “Now, tell me—who is your Alpha, and why does he need information about Grayson?”Gilbert hesitated, but the oppressive silence and James’s unwavering stare forced him to speak. “My name is Gilbert. I’m from the Shadow Pack. Our Alpha is Jaxon. He needs this information to give to the leader of the wolf hunters. If he doesn’t comply, the hunters will destroy our pack,” he revealed, his voice trembling slightly.James’s brows furrowed in thought. “So, the wolf hunters are real. Do you think their leader has the power to kill Grayson?”Gilbert let out a heavy sigh. “I don’t know. Grayson is said to be incredibly powerful, and nearly impossible to defeat. That’s why we need a way to lure him out of the pack or find a weakness we can exploit. My Alpha also wants to learn more about his history—it’s critical to the plan.
The guards marched into the woods under Grayson and Beta Luke's command, their sharp eyes scanning for any clue. But it was as though the intruder had vanished into thin air. No scent lingered, no footsteps pressed into the damp earth. Frustration etched itself on Grayson’s face. “How is this possible?” he growled, his voice tight with anger.Beta Luke’s brows furrowed. “It’s like he’s not even a wolf… or he knows how to cover his tracks too well.”“Whoever he is, he is no longer here in the woods,” Grayson said and reluctantly called off the search.However, he didn’t let his guard down as he stationed some guards to remain in the woods while he asked the others to go into the pack and station themselves at strategic locations.He ordered all pack members to be alert, and every corner of the territory was on high alert for a stranger.In the evening, a guard near the bustling market square spotted a young man moving suspiciously.He was tall and wiry, with a hood pulled low over hi
“Alicia and Gloria, you are hereby banished from the Silvermoon pack. You are to leave by nightfall, and never return,” Grayson declared.The crowd erupted into murmurs as Grayson passed his judgment on the girls.“Let this serve as a warning to everyone,” Grayson announced, his voice sharp with finality. “Evelyn is my mate, chosen by the Moon Goddess herself. She will be respected and treated as such. This is the last time I will show leniency to anyone who dares to harm her. From this moment forward, any act against Evelyn will be considered treason, punishable by death.”A tense silence fell over the crowd, broken only by the murmurs of uncertainty and unease rippling through the pack.Grayson’s piercing gaze swept across the gathered wolves. “If anyone here doubts my judgment or questions the will of the Moon Goddess, you are free to leave the Silvermoon Pack. But know this—I will continue to protect and serve this pack with everything I have.”Though some faces in the crowd revea
The Silvermoon pack gathered at the square, murmurs rippling through the crowd like restless waves. The morning sun cast a sharp light over the clearing, illuminating every tense face. Grayson stood on the raised platform, his presence commanding silence as he gazed over his people.Behind him, Beta Luke stood stoically, and to the side, were Alicia and Gloria, forced to kneel, their faces pale with shame.Grayson raised his hand, and the murmurs ceased immediately.“Wolves of the Silvermoon Pack,” Grayson began, his voice cutting through the crisp morning air, low and commanding yet filled with underlying emotion. His piercing gaze swept over the gathered crowd, each pair of eyes fixed on him with rapt attention.“Have I ever failed you since I became your Alpha?” His voice rose slightly, the question echoing across the square as his eyes darted from face to face, searching for any sign of dissent.The crowd remained silent, a charged stillness hanging in the air as pack members e
Grayson stormed into the cell after Beta Luke informed him they had captured Alicia and one of her accomplices. His steps echoed off the stone walls, his expression dark and unyielding. The air in the room thickened with his dominance, making even the guards uneasy.“Where is the fourth wolf? The larger one with red eyes?” Grayson demanded, his voice cutting through the silence like a blade.Beta Luke hesitated. “Alicia claims she isn’t part of them. She said it was just her and two of her friends who attacked Evelyn.”“And you believed her?” Grayson growled, his tone dangerously low, his eyes blazing.“I called you here to verify the truth,” Luke replied calmly.Grayson’s jaw clenched as he turned his attention to Alicia. Without a word, he strode across the cell and grabbed her by the arm, lifting her off the ground with alarming ease. He slammed her against the wall, the impact reverberating through the small space.“Tell me the truth. Now,” he hissed, his face inches from hers.
Grayson stopped suddenly in the woods, his head tilting as Kyle caught something in the wind.“Freesia and lavender,” Kyle whispered urgently. “That’s her scent,” Grayson said, his heart racing as he took off on a run, following the faint trail.As Grayson pushed through the trees, he saw her lying in the grass, her cream fur soaked with blood and she was surrounded by three other wolves.“It’s her!” Kyle roared, emerging from within and charging forward with blinding speed.One of the wolves barely had time to react before Kyle grabbed it and hurled it against a tree with a sickening thud.“Oh no. It’s Grayson!” James whispered, his voice trembling as he said to his wolf, “We can’t fight him. Get us out of here now!”James’s wolf didn’t hesitate. With a growl, it turned and bolted into the dense forest.Kyle snarled, ready to chase them down, but Grayson’s voice cut through the chaos. “No! Let them go for now.”Reluctantly, Kyle relented, his fury simmering as the other two wolves s
Grayson stood in front of the guards Beta Luke had assembled, his sharp eyes scanning them.“Spread out and begin a house-to-house search. I want every single building in this pack scoured. Don’t miss a single room,” Grayson barked.“Yes, Alpha!” the guards chorused before dispersing quickly.Beta Luke approached, a grim expression on his face. “We’ll find her, Grayson.”“We better,” Grayson said through gritted teeth, pacing back and forth. His wolf, Kyle, was restless, growling every few seconds.Diana arrived at the scene and strode toward Grayson, arms crossed, her expression a mixture of curiosity and exasperation.“Are you sure she was taken?” Diana asked, her tone skeptical. “What if she left on her own accord? Why create such a fuss over someone who doesn’t belong here?”Grayson stopped pacing, his eyes narrowing dangerously. “She didn’t leave on her own, Diana. She’s been receiving threats.”“But still—”“Not now, Diana!” Grayson snapped, his voice sharp enough to make her fl
“How can a girl like you come from nowhere and steal the Alpha's heart?” one of the cloaked figures sneered, striking Evelyn across the head.Evelyn glared up at her, defiance blazing in her eyes. “Because I am his, and he is mine. Get that through your thick skull, coward.”The figure let out a cruel laugh, her voice dripping with mockery. “You keep calling me a coward, yet you’re the one tied up and completely helpless. You claim to have Alpha’s blood in your veins, but you fight like a weak little chicken.”“Then untie me,” Evelyn shot back, her tone cold and daring. “Show me your face if you’re not afraid, and let’s settle this one-on-one. Or are you as spineless as you seem?”The figure stilled for a moment, her hands moving to the hood of her cloak. “Oh, darling, I’ll show you my face. It’s only fair you know who’s going to make you disappear.” Slowly, she pulled back the cloak, revealing her identity.Evelyn’s eyes widened in shock. “You? You’re the one behind this?”“Yes, it’s
“I think something is wrong with Evelyn. I can sense she’s in danger,” Kyle said, pacing restlessly in Grayson’s mind as the Alpha stepped into the house.Grayson paused, frowning. “She’s fine for now. Beta Luke said she went home, and Declan is keeping watch over her. I’ll check on her after I take a shower.”“No, Grayson!” Kyle’s voice was sharp, tinged with urgency. “I’m not talking about earlier. Something is wrong right now. Go check on her before it’s too late.”Grayson let out a frustrated sigh, but he couldn’t ignore the gnawing worry in his wolf’s voice. Kyle’s instincts were rarely wrong.“Alright,” he muttered, turning toward the back of the house, where Evelyn’s apartment was located.As he approached, Grayson spotted Declan pacing near the door, his posture alert and on edge.“Good evening, Alpha,” Declan greeted with a respectful bow as soon as he saw him.“Evening,” Grayson replied briskly. His eyes scanned the area. “Have you seen anyone come by?”“No, Alpha. I haven’t
