“Lisa. Oh my goodness, what do I do?” Evelyn said, panicking as she checked if Lisa was still breathing.The door to the house opened and Lisa looked up to check who it was and saw Diana come in.“Diana, thank Goodness. Lisa was eating and just suddenly passed out. I didn't know what went wrong?” Evelyn said.Diana squatted down beside Lisa, checking her pulse to see if she was still breathing.She found out she was and mind linked her husband.“Please come to Lisa's house, I need your help,” Diana said.“Alright. I am on my way,” Beta Luke said.“What did she eat?” Diana asked.“Pancakes,” Evelyn replied.“What happened?” Beta Luke asked as he saw Lisa lying unconsciously on the floor.“I don't know yet but from these rashes on her body. I think she is having an allergic reaction. Let's get her to the hospital,” Diana said.“Okay,” Beta Luke lifted Lisa from the floor and they made their way to the hospital.Diana swiftly put her on the bed and examined her, confirming it was indeed
“You need to be careful of Lisa. I am sensing a bad energy from her,” Viola warned.“Lisa? No, I think you mean Diana,” Evelyn said.“I mean Lisa. The one who is accommodating us in her house at the moment,” Viola clarified.“I am confused. Why will you be sensing a bad energy from her? She is a good person, she is nice to us,” Evelyn argued.“I just want you to be careful, that is what I sense from her,” Viola said.“Viola, you are jealous because she slept with your mate before you could get the chance to,” Evelyn said, laughing at Viola.“No, that is not it. I don't just know why I am getting this dark energy from her,” Viola insisted.“Alright, alright, I will be careful,” Evelyn said.***“Welcome back,” Evelyn said to Lisa as she came back from the hospital“Thank you. I am so sorry for putting you into trouble, I'll be more careful next time,” Lisa said with a smile.“It is fine. I am just glad you are okay,” Evelyn said.“Yes. I am glad it didn't affect my pup,” Lisa said, rub
“You asked to see me, Alpha,” Evelyn said as she entered Grayson's office.“The hunters have struck again,” Alpha Grayson said.“Which pack did they attack this time?” Evelyn asked, her stomach churning at the memories of the horrific ordeal her pack went through at the hands of the hunters.“Greenfield Pack,” Grayson said.“Oh my goodness! That Pack shares a border with ours,” Evelyn exclaimed as she covered her mouth with her hands.“I know. I think they are currently in that area, my source tells me that,” Grayson said.“Let us go there right now before they wipe all the packs in that area, please,” Evelyn pleaded.“Not so fast, I've sent a spy to that area to map it out first. You don't go to a battlefield without having an idea of what you are going to meet. We have to know how they operate, their strengths and weaknesses. That will help us to prepare how we can attack them,” Grayson explained.“Wise words,” Viola complimented.“I don't know why they are doing this. What do they
“I tried to reject it but he insisted,” Evelyn explained to Lisa.A pinched expression formed on Lisa's face as she stared at Evelyn with jealousy.“I told you their bond is a strong one, Grayson might have started falling for her without him knowing it,” Missy said, letting out a slight growl.“Lisa, you are not saying anything,” Evelyn said to Lisa, gently tapping her on the leg.“That is great. I don't understand why you are worried or trying to reject it. This will make you get closer to Grayson, you need to impress him,” Lisa said.“That is the problem. I don't know what he likes or dislikes. I don't know the activities the pack members would love,” Evelyn lamented.“That's simple, you just need to find out, that's all,” Lisa said.“Will you help me? Please,” Evelyn pleaded.“I am sorry. I will not be able to. I get easily tired these days,” Lisa said.Evelyn sighed, a sad look on her face, “I understand, It was selfish of me to ask you.”“No, please don't say that. I can give yo
“Why? What is wrong with it?” Evelyn asked with a puzzled expression.Alpha Grayson muttered a curse under his breath and stormed out of the square in anger.“Hyacinth and Peony are flowers Grayson hates the most in his life. How could you not ask before you used it?” Diana said, shaking her head.“What? Lisa asked me to use these flowers, she said Grayson loved them,” Evelyn said, in bewilderment.“Lisa told you that?” Beta Luke asked in surprise.“I swear on my dead parents' grave,” Evelyn said.“Stop lying! Lisa would never tell you that. She knows Grayson hates these flowers because their scents remind him of our mother. Hyacinth and Peony is our mother's scent,” Diana bitterly expressed.“Oh, Lisa is here. You can ask her,” Evelyn said as she saw Lisa entering the square.“What's happening? Is everything alright?” Lisa asked.“Lisa, why did you tell me to use Hyacinth and Peony when you knew Grayson hated those flowers?” Evelyn asked Lisa.“What? I never asked you to use these fl
Alpha Grayson gently released Evelyn from his arms, the pack members who were around them whispered amongst themselves, awestruck by the scene unfolding before them. "Thank you, Alpha Grayson," Evelyn murmured, feeling her cheeks burn in embarrassment.“Where were you rushing off to? Trying to avoid me?” Alpha Grayson whispered in Evelyn's ear.“No, I was not, I just wanted to…erm..to…” Evelyn stuttered.“You wanted to do what?” Grayson asked.“The pack members are watching us,” Evelyn said.“Walk with me,” Grayson said, clearing his throat.Evelyn rolled her eyes, dragging her feet to follow Alpha Grayson as he started walking.“I am sorry about what happened the other time. I didn't know what those flowers meant to you,” Evelyn apologized.“I should be the one apologizing,” Grayson said.“Why?” Evelyn asked, taken aback by Grayson's words.“You are new in the pack, you don't know what I like and dislike. I shouldn't have reacted that way,” Grayson said.“No, I understand. It must h
Evelyn entered the house and was surprised to see the whole house disorganized. “Lisa,” She called out, a little bit scared. She gently tried to find her way around the broken objects on the floor. She was mindful of her steps as she walked towards the room to check on Lisa. Suddenly, Lisa appeared before her in a disheveled state, her clothes torn and her hair untidy. She launched an attack on Evelyn with her claws, scratching and drawing out blood from her arm. “Ouch,” Evelyn cried out in pain and quickly backed away from Lisa. “What was that for, Lisa?” Evelyn asked, in shock. "Grayson is mine, Grayson is mine," Lisa whispered under her breath as she advanced menacingly towards Evelyn, aiming to strike her across the face. Evelyn dodged the attack, sending Lisa flying in the air and landing on the floor with a thud. “My goodness, Lisa, do not injure yourself. Think about your pup, What is happening to you?” Evelyn cried out. Lisa stood up letting out a maliciou
Evelyn slowly parted her eyelids as the dawn's light illuminated her face.She had spent the night at the square after she had run away from Lisa.Her mind flashed back to the events of the previous day, Grayson's warning and Lisa's attack on her.She sat up and noticed her cloth was rumpled. She needed to take a warm bath and change her clothes before the start of activities for the day. She could not afford the pack members to see her in a disheveled state.However, she was at a total loss on what to do, she could not go back to Lisa's house to change her clothes and she had no other place to go to.“Should I go to Grayson?” She thought in her heart.“You might run into Diana and you would not want to start explaining what had happened, she will not believe you,” Viola chipped in.“What should I do? It is a big day, I cannot appear like this before the pack members,” Evelyn sadly said.“Stand up,” Viola said.“Why?” Evelyn asked.“Just do as I say,” Viola insisted.“Alright,” Evely
“What? Who killed her?” Grayson said, jumping on his feet.“I have no idea, Alpha, I'm as surprised as you are,” Beta Luke said.“Huh,” Grayson scoffed.“I am heading there right now, wanna come along?” Beta Luke asked.“Let's go,” Grayson said.Grayson and Beta Luke hurriedly left Grayson's office and headed towards the stream.Grayson and Beta Luke found that a large number of pack members had already gathered at the stream upon their arrival.“Who found her body?” Grayson asked.“My child and her friends did. They had come to the river to have a bath when they saw it,” Tara said, coming forward.“When was this?” Grayson inquired.“About thirty minutes ago. I informed the guards immediately after the children called my attention to it,” Tara said.“Where do you stay?” Grayson asked.“There,” Tara answered, pointing to her house.“Did you touch the body?” Grayson asked.“No, I couldn't go near it. I called the guards over immediately,” Tara said.“Alright, everyone step back,” Grayso
“How are you doing?” Beta Luke greeted Evelyn as he got to her cell.Evelyn slowly lifted her head from her curled-up position as she heard Beta Luke's voice.“Just here,” She replied wearily.“I am here to ask you a few questions,” Beta Luke said.“I am listening,” Evelyn said.“The night you claimed you fought with Lisa and ran away, did you shift into your wolf?” Beta Luke asked.“Yes, Lisa was the first person to shift to her wolf form then I did the same so I could get away from her,” Evelyn replied.“What color is your wolf?” Beta Luke inquired.“My wolf's fur is cream,” Evelyn replied.“What about Lisa's?” Beta Luke probed further.“I think hers is dark,” Evelyn answered.“Okay. I would love to also ask you a question and I would like you to tell me the truth,” Beta Luke said, his gaze strongly fixed on Lisa.“Okay,” Evelyn said, rolling her eyes as she wondered what his question might be.“Do you like Grayson?” Beta Luke asked.“Huh! Why do you ask?” Evelyn replied, a little b
“When was the last time you saw her?” Beta Luke inquired from Samantha, Clara's friend and fellow servant the next day.“Yesterday at the square but she disappeared immediately after we were dismissed by the Alpha,” Samantha explained.“Does she have a mate?” Beta Luke inquired.“Yes, she does but she's not there. I saw Thomas this morning and asked him if Clara was with him but he said he hadn't seen her,” Samantha said.“Alright, thank you, Samantha,” Beta Luke said as he stood to take his leave.As he was about to leave the servant's quarters, one of the young servants ran to him.“Beta Luke,” She called out.“Yes,” Beta Luke answered.“I have some information about Clara, I don't know if it might help,” she revealed.“Yes, go on,” Beta Luke said.“I saw Clara heading towards the east side of the pack yesterday after we were dismissed. I wanted to ask her where she was going but I got distracted by something else,” she explained.“The east side of the pack?” Beta Luke reiterated.“
“What? Are you saying that she is lying right now?” Diana asked.“I just asked for proof, you only told me she was pregnant. I never saw a test result or something?” Grayson said.“I don't have any test results, you can ask Lisa when she wakes up. Please excuse me, I have a patient to attend to,” Diana said.“I want you to collect the blood sample in Lisa's living room and test it to see if it's cat blood or not. I also want you to test the blood from the miscarriage if it's hers or not,” Grayson said.“Grayson! What do you need these things for?” Diana exclaimed.“Just do as I say,” Grayson said.“And if I do not, what will you do?” Diana asked.“It is not a request, Diana. I, Alpha Grayson of the Silvermoon pack, command you, Diana Woods, to do as I say. Failure to do this will be seen and treated as insubordination to your Alpha and the necessary punishment for that shall be meted out to you,” Grayson said authoritatively.“Did you just use the Alpha's command on me?” Diana exclaim
Lisa quickly opened her eyes as he heard Grayson open the door that led to the backyard, her heart raced fast and almost popped out of her chest.She sprang to her feet and tiptoed to the backyard to check what Grayson was doing there.Her heart jumped in anxiety when she saw him bending down over the grave where she had buried Clara.“What's he doing there?” Missy cried out.“I have no idea,” Lisa replied, trembling in fear.“We have to come up with an excuse or something. Grayson must never find out what we buried there else that will be the end for you and me,” Missy said.“Alpha Grayson,” Lisa called out. She pretended to be half awake and half asleep as she walked slowly to Grayson.“I thought you were fast asleep?” Grayson said, surprised to see Lisa awake.“I was but then I heard a noise in the house and it woke me up, then I heard someone open the backyard door and I was scared, I thought my house had been burgled,” Lisa explained, faking a yawn.“I came to check up on you,” G
Grayson stormed out of the cell and communicated with Diana through the mind link as he made his way out.“Where are you?” He asked."I am at home. Why do you ask?" Diana responded."Is Lisa with you?" Grayson inquired.“No, she is in her house,” Diana replied."Did you leave a sick person alone in her house all by herself?" Grayson asked, his tone filled with suspicion.“She insisted that she would like to go to her house. She said she doesn't want to go to the hospital or come to my house so I took her home and gave her some drugs that will help with the pain and make her sleep,” Diana explained.“And you left her alone,” Grayson queried.“I came home to get some food and clothes. I will go back to her house to be with her shortly. What's with all these questions, Grayson?” Diana inquired, sounding infuriated.“Nothing, just checking up on Lisa,” Grayson said.“Since when did you care?” Diana said.Grayson disconnected the mind link, ignoring Diana's last statement, and made his way
“Why are you locking her up?” Kyle protested as Beta Luke led Evelyn away.“Can't you see I am doing that to protect her until I get to the bottom of this? Do you want the wolves to lynch her, can't you see how agitated they are?” Grayson retorted sharply.“The party is over, return to your houses. Beta Luke and I will investigate this matter and decide on what to do,” Alpha Grayson said, addressing the pack members.The wolves let out a sad howl, expressing their discontent with the way the festival celebration had ended.One by one, they began to depart from the square, whispering amongst themselves about how Alpha Grayson must be truly cursed for all these events to be befalling him.“Take Lisa away. Give her all the necessary medications to ensure she is okay,” Grayson said to Diana and left the square for the cell. He met Beta Luke on the way.“I have locked her up,” Beta Luke informed.“Yes, show me to her cell,” Grayson commanded.“This way,” Beta Luke said.“Did you believe sh
The pack members swiftly gathered around Lisa, who lay on the floor writhing in pain.“My stomach, my stomach,” Lisa cried out dramatically, putting on a show.Diana, Beta Luke, and Alpha Grayson hurried down to her side.“What happened?” Diana asked.“I was trying to apologize to Evelyn about what happened yesterday and she pushed me,” Lisa claimed, feigning innocence.“What? I didn't push you, Lisa, you threw yourself down” Evelyn cried out in dismay."How could I throw myself down when I know I'm with a child? It doesn't make sense. Yesterday, you threatened that I would never bear Alpha Grayson's pup and that you would make me regret getting pregnant for your mate. You left the house in a fit of anger after causing havoc everywhere. I came to apologize and clarify things, but you pushed me," Lisa explained, her hand gripping her stomach tightly as more blood seeped out.The pack members shared glances with one another, taken aback by Lisa's revelation about being pregnant with Gra
Evelyn walked gracefully to the stage to give an opening speech, all eyes were on her as she looked stunning in the dress Tara had given her.Alpha Grayson shifted uneasily in his seat, his eyes were filled with lustrous desires as he stared at Evelyn who was walking to the stage.The way she swayed her hips sent signals to his brain and formed imaginations in his mind.“Good morning, dear wonderful members of Silvermoon Pack,” Evelyn greeted, flashing a bright smile at the pack members.“Blessed morning to you too,” The pack members chorused with applause.“I would like to thank Alpha Grayson and Beta Luke for the opportunity given to me to plan the activities for the new moon festival this year. I would also like to thank you all, for the support and love shown to a stranger like me, and for accepting me into the pack. Thank you all. Without further ado, we will start the celebration now,” Evelyn said.“Ahoooo,” The pack members howled in excitement, clapping their hands.“We will b
