Evie's POV After turning and tossing all through the night with sleep still eluding me no matter what I did, I gave up on the cause. My eyes were opened all through the night. Not just opened, all my thoughts were centered on the man's chest. Once the first crow sounded, I jumped off my bed and went straight to the hall. When I got there, the Omegas were already going about their duties."Good morning, everyone," I greeted even though my morning was anything but good."Good morning, Miss Evie." They all greeted back. Then, they went back to their duties, chatting away as they worked. I smiled as I noticed how different they were around me. Initially, everywhere was always as silent as a graveyard whenever I was around these people. If a needle dropped during those times, we would easily pick it up because we would hear the sound and know where it fell. Now, they didn't mind that I was around and could listen in to their conversations. "Miss Evie?" Grace called, bringing me back to
Damon's POV Frustration was my middle name all through the night!Not just because I got a hard erection that refused to go down, but because even Leo wouldn't stop bickering at me about how much of a failure I was. He made it clear that despite all my boasts and ego, I still couldn't get a girl to fall for me. Of course, I had nothing to say as an excuse, knowing that he was right. So, as soon as the day broke, I went straight to the training ground.It was going to be a full moon tomorrow, and as such, the pack would need to go for a run together. I needed to train the warriors just in case we encounter another pack while on the run. Or worse, we might encounter rogues. While it would be easier to talk to the Alpha of a pack and have us go each of our ways, it would not be so with rogues as they were always looking for packs to attack so they could take over the territory for themselves."Who else would like to challenge me?" The leader of the warriors, Darwen, said.Wordlessly, I
Evie's POV I struggled to get up, not wanting the Alpha to meet me at that spot. Few people already felt that I was meriting a favor from the man because I was exchanging my body for the supposed favors. If he actually ran over to me with the way he panicky called my name, there was nothing I would say that would convince those people that I was not in any sort of relationship with him. Not even one of hatred.But if only the pain in my side didn't pick up each time I tried to get up. I looked at Alpha Damon and saw that he was almost halfway through where I was. I shook my head at him to stop him, but the man was too engrossed in getting over to me to even notice my sign."Miss Evie!" I looked to the side and saw the newest couple of the Omegas rushing toward me. They got to where I was and both knelt beside me, glancing me about like they were protecting me."What happened to you?" The woman asked."Someone hit me in my side of the stomach, and it hurts a lot. I think the person
Damon's POV The way she was scratching her neck was suspicious, but I decided to let the matter go. I had already acted like a fool once, but I was not going to repeat the action the second time.When she fell at that training ground, her eyes squeezed shut tightly, and her hand holding her side while she panted like someone almost breathing their last, I thought that was the last I would ever see her. That single thought clouded my sense of reasoning, and I had begun my race to her side, damning all forms of consequences that might come with it. If it weren't for the two people who surrounded her, my brain would not have returned to normal, and I would have still been clouded by my need to be with her and comfort her.Even though the two people with her acted like a friend, I still stayed back to watch her reaction to them and see if she was comfortable. When I was sure of that, I returned to the mansion to wait for her return.Of course, I couldn't think of a reason why I should ca
Damon's POV I walked on without any destination in mind. All I knew was that the single harmless question Evie asked me had indeed opened a can of bad memories that I would love nothing else but to forget about."Alpha Damon!" A voice yelled in front of me. Startled slightly by how loud it was, I looked up, only to see my Gamma walking toward me. Beside him was Miss Aurora. It also didn't escape my notice that the two were holding hands as they advanced."Great to see you," I said in a sarcastic voice, hoping that the man would take my hint and leave me alone."Great to see you too." He answered instead. I snorted at him. Knowing who Samuel was, I knew that he recognized the sarcastic comment but simply chose to just ignore it."Good morning to you, Alpha Damon." Miss Aurora said, bowing her head in respect."Good morning," I answered her greeting."Oh, right, Alpha." Gamma Samuel said with a smile. He went behind Miss Aurora and wrapped his arms around the woman, engulfing her in a
Miss Kardashian's POV "Is she dead, or is she not?!" I growled at the warrior in front of me.For his response, he went on his knees in front of me. The kind of anger that took over me as I watched him do could only be described as me wanting to kill him off. It was very obvious that he failed, and I have little tolerance for people who failed me."Tell me just one good reason why I should not order for you to be dead right now!" I stormed at him. "Tell me!"He began to tremble where he was on his knees in front of me. I kicked him with my right leg, using my wolf strength. He stumbled backward, and I hissed tremendously. Instead of lying down low, he got back on his knees and crawled back to where I was. His hands held my legs, and I closed my eyes to control my anger."Failure!" I hissed at him. I had sent him over to kill Evie that morning after I saw her going over to the training ground. Of course, I couldn't do it myself, hence the reason why I used him. He was a part of the w
Damon's POV The night of the full moon finally arrived. After I finished the file I was working on, I got up from the chair I sat on and stretched to relieve my tensed muscles. If there was one part about being the Alpha that was tiring, that would be part of the paperwork that I had to do every day. Having to sit at a spot, with nothing else to do for hours other than watching letters and figures carefully, was another pain in my ass."What's with the gloomy face?" My Beta asked me.Before I could respond, my Gamma snickered."He's probably on heat. You know how the full moon gets to him, and he usually goes to that Rose to kill off some of the heat in his body." He said, reminding me of something that I wished I wouldn't be reminded of. Yes, there was a high tension in my body. One that has always been there ever since I began to practice how to achieve partial shifting. I learned too late that by learning to do that, I was drawing in more energy from the full moon than the rest o
Evie's POV The moment the horn sounded, I knew that it was time for the pack to go on their monthly run. Everyone in the pack, except the Omegas and a few humans like me, were going to be there to partake in the power of the full moon. I always found the concept of shifting intriguing.I wanted to see it with my eyes one day, the way these people would shift from being humans to being animals, all in the brink of an eye.Back at the slave quarters one night like this, one of the Omegas had offered to show me what the shifting was like. Of course, I had agreed, finding it hard to keep my excitement at bay. But alas, I couldn't witness the shift as the Omega was in excruciating pain just because she wanted to shift. I made her stop after she tried for about five minutes. That was when she explained why they never joined the pack during the run.All the Omegas either have trouble shifting at all, or they had small wolves that could be compared to puppies, or the wolves were too weak to
Evie's POV Life was a lot easier now that Alpha Damon and me decides that we were going to talk about everything that had happened in the past and see if there was a way we would live to fix our broken relationship. And that was exactly what we did.Now, we were back to the pack. I smiled as people walked up to me with a smile on their faces, especially Miss Aurora and Grace."Hey, friend. I'm so happy for you." Miss Aurora said, hugging me. I returned her hug and even gave her a smile."Thank you," I responded."Now that you are actually having your mating ceremony with the Alpha and you are going to be the Luna, I don't know if I would still be able to relate with you as I did when you were just our head of servants," Grace said, a sad smile on her face.I held her hand and gave her a light squeeze. "We are friends, Grace. That is what you and Miss Aurora know," I told her. And I meant every word that I said. There was no way I was going to leave the people who were my friends jus
Alpha Damon's POV "How dare you, a reputable private investigator, claim that you cannot track a aingle person?!" I bellowed into the phone.I was now very frustrated. Where could she have gone after running out on me like that? That was the last thing that I thought she would ever do. Or what exactly had gone wrong? The worse part of it all was that not one, not two, not three private investigators had seen her anywhere around. "Damon, I found her!'' Samuel yelled even before he opened the door and showed me his face."Where the fuck is she?!" I yelled instantly, already picking up the car keys even as I asked the questions."Her grandfather's," Samuel told me. He gave me the name of her grandfather and my mouth was left wide open."That is the Alpha King!" I exclaimed."Exactly!" Samuel answered, rolling his eyes. That had to mean just one thing - Evie was not a human as we all assumed."By the moon goddess!" I yelled. I didn't bother to stay around for any more talk. I rushed ou
Miss Kardashian's POV "How the hell did you fail again?!" I yelled at the witch mother for the third time. I watched as she was still on the floor where she fell, panting hard like her life depended on it.She had started whatever spell she was casting in earnest. For some reason, all had looked like it was all going well until a scream tore out from the witch mother, and she stumbled backward. She fell on her ass and never got up since then. I didn't need to be told that she had, once again, failed to remove the obstacle blocking my path."You promised me you will kill her!" I yelled again. Now, I was no longer frustrated. I was tired. Tired and angry that nothing seemed to be working in my favor. I fisted my hands to my sides as I looked at the witch mother in agony.This was all her fault! All she had done was promise me and not fufill that promise over and over again."It seems..." She panted out. "It seems that... she is a werewolf... and I have accidentally unlocked that in her
206Evie's POV I remembered everything now.The fact that I was not alone as I thought and I had a grandfather who was still alive somewhere. I remembered the road to his place as well. Even if I didn't, the man was the Alpha King, so it would be easier to find my way to him. With nowhere else left to go, I decided to visit the man.It wasn't as if I had much of a choice anyway. I didn't know anyone else that I should go over to tell them the kind of burden I was carrying in my heart. Even as I made my way to his place, I wasn't sure if I should go. A whole lot of years had passed by, and I was no longer sure if the man was still alive. Still, I had to make sure."Stop right there!" The guards at the gate yelled at me the moment they spotted me. Their bows and arrows and swords were ready to spring into action if they considered me as a threat to them in any way. I raised my hands up to show them that I was not in any way a threat to them or the others."What is going on?" I heard a
Alpha Damon's POVStorming out of the restaurant and into the parking lot, I moved my wild eyes frantically searching for any trace or clue of my date, Evie, but couldn't find any. I could have gone after her immediately, but a couple of waiters had seen her violent reaction and held me back.Fucking lucky them I had enough self control to not throw them all across the room. Now that I was going after her, I couldn't find her."Why did she fucking leave all of a sudden?" I muttered to myself. "Was she in some kind of pain?"I tried to imagine what might have gone wrong but I couldn't think of a thing that might have made her leave."Fuck." I snapped, landing my already clenched fist on a random wall, leaving a dent but I'm too carried away to notice a thing. It was so sudden, because she fucking went from smiling to screaming. I brushed my hair back and closed my eyes and reminiscing the warmth I felt from her smiles, how beautiful and delicate she looked as she tried to stop herself
Evie's POV I had no idea how long I must have kept running through the night, because my entire body was screaming at me, yelling and begging to be allowed to take a break. But my mind was racing with pain, torment and torture.Nothing had broken me as bad as the truth.I endee up back at the mansion, and stagger up it's stairs. The guards stationed for security all flicked towards me, worried and scared of losing their heads if anything happened to me. Unknown to them, my injuries were internal."Miss!""Are you alright?!""Call the nurse—!""No!" I yelled, "Stay away from me and stay back in your posts!" They were startled and unsure, but I didn't wait to look at more of their reactions. Shivering, I wiped my tears which kept pouring down my face, pushed the heavy doors open and stormed in. In my blind flurry, I did not see Grace coming from the other direction, and I bumped into her, causing whatever she was carrying to crash to the floor deafeningly."Miss Evie!" She gasped, han
Evie's POV Despite the warm and cosy environment of the restaurant where I was having my date with Alpha Damon, there was still a certain tension charging the air between us. His dark eyes was watching me with intensity, and mine kept bouncing back and forth between the both of us.A waiter appeared by our table, holding a smoking cold bottle of wine. "Your wine, please." She smiled, wrapping a white towel around the bottle before tipping the rich, scarlet liquid into both of our tall glasses. "Enjoy." She gave a bow and left us alone in tense silence. Although, the tension only seemed to be coming from me. Alpha Damon's domineering and confident aura was unshakable, indestructible and everything in between. In his dark dress shirt which had the top bottons undone and tousled brown hair, he looked every inch like the powerful Alpha of the Night wolves pack that everyone dared not defy."Have a taste of the wine, it's the best." He said, raising his glass towards me.I did not reall
Miss Kardashian's POV "We are sorry, Miss Kardashian, but we would like to let you know that we have no desire to oppose Miss Evie as the future Luna." One of the Elders, the one who was chosen to share the news with me, said to me.My eyes flashed anger at the man. So, they had all chosen to defile me at the end of the day?"You don't care if I tell the Alpha your wrongdoings?!" I screeched at him."Even if you threaten us, we still won't stand with you. Alpha Damon is changing into a more humane person, and we all know it is because of Miss Evie. And you want us to chase her away? Why? So we can resume the reign of terror you pushed the Alpha to do when you were still his favorite?" He countered back.I raised my hand to slap him but his words stopped me."If you slap me, I won't hesitate to do the same. You can't report to the Alpha as you are no longer in favor with him." He said with a knowing smile. "Delusional woman like you should get something else to do and not rely on a ma
Alpha Damon's POV The Elders had all called for an emergency meeting the second day after I announced Evie as my mate. I didn't know what the motive of the meeting was, but I was at peace because I knew that we were not under any attack.Still, I knew that whatever it was that they wanted to discuss so urgently that they had to summon me had to be something that was very important or they wouldn't have done that. I would know once I got to the meeting hall."Let's hurry up," I told Samuel. Stephan was not with us as he went to check out a trail about the former managing director that I fired from my company, who went awol on the people I sent to capture him."Yes, Alpha." My Gamma responded.We got to the meeting hall and saw that all the Elders were already present. However, when they saw me, most of them became uncomfortable. It was so bad that I spotted sweat on the foreheads of two of them, while another one seemed to be sweating all over. Somehow, I felt that whatever it was tha
