Miss Kardashian's POV I couldn't hold it in no matter how hard I tried. How was I supposed to hold it in? That man had bloody yelled at me because of that worthless slave! It was hard to admit, but I was currently jealous as badly as possible. What was that about anyway? Could it be that Damon was already tired of me? Could it be that was his way of letting me know that he was going to cut me off from his life? No, no, no. I shook my head in denial. There was no way I would let him off like that. He belongs to me! No force on earth could change that fact. So, I had to act fast if I still wanted to keep what was mine by right. Not willing to leave the breeze to blow over everything that had happened between the man and me, I rushed up the stairs. I saw the man come out of his room just as I was about to take the last step to the top. Of course, Evie was missing behind him. "What do you want?" He asked me calmly. My hope renewed as I felt that all he did back there in the living r
Damon's POV I didn't wait to see if the guards did as I instructed (there was no need to wait around and see anyway since I was sure that they would do exactly as I instructed them). I wouldn't even wait around if it was a must. As things stood, the only thing on my mind was to get Evie out of the presence of this woman and comfort her. I looked at where she was still on the floor, barely covered by the towel I wrapped around her, crying her eyes out. My heart broke a little. Had it always been like this for her and I was just oblivious to her harassment because I hardened my heart towards her? All for what? The fact that she got mated to me? I was a jerk, I knew it now. The poor girl had nothing to do with being mated to me. If anything, I was sure that she didn't even know that she was destined to spend the rest of her life with a cold-hearted person like me -something she might be both frightened or repulsed by. Why the hell had I been so engrossed in my own plight that I forgot
Damon's POV Another hour passed, and the woman that had been sleeping peacefully woke up. She moaned softly, and I was forced to race to her side to see what was going on with her. "Are you okay?" I asked her. She peeked at me under her eyelashes. As soon as she recognized me, she flew up from where she slept on the bed. "Easy," I warned her when I saw how she winced from the pain she felt in her arm for moving it abruptly like that. "Ma-master," She stammered out to me. "I didn't mean to-" I knew that she was going to go in for long lines of apologies, so I cut her off. "Go back to bed," I instructed her. The winds seemed to bring down the forge in her memory, and she must have remembered how she came to be so close to me in proximity. "I am hungry." She confessed under her breath. It was so small that I might have not been able to pick the words up if I wasn't a werewolf. I quickly mind-linked the kitchen head to get some food for Evie. When that was out of the way, I quickly
Miss Kardashian's POV I watched as the man who had done nothing but adored me walked out of the cell where he commanded I be kept without even as much as a backward glance in my direction. When he first ordered for me to be taken to cell through the mind link -after making sure the voice reverberated in my head, so I would have no doubt he ordered it- I thought that he might be out of his head. It was either that or to safely assumed that Evie and that man called River had performed some kind of magical spell that turned the heart of Alpha Damon all of the sudden. That was the only viable excuse I could make for the man as I sat in the prison, awaiting his impending arrival. But to hear and see him still act the same way toward me, I was convinced that his senses were no longer working. Otherwise, he wouldn't have the mind to threaten me. A whole Miss Kardashian. That too, in front of the two worthless guards. Speaking of guards, my eyes darted to the two who still had their back
Evie's POV Someone was chasing me! Chasing me hard, with no hope of them backing away from me no matter how hard I ran! And run I did, not willing to let myself be caught by whoever the force was. I continued to run until I got to the end of the street, where there was nowhere else to run or hide. The figure chasing me got to where I was and gave an eerie laugh. I shivered from the negative aura coming from the person. "Today is the day you die!" The voice yelled at me. I tried to look at the person to see if it was someone I knew, but the cloak covering the face made it entirely impossible. I couldn't recognize the voice either because it seemed to be distorted by some kind of force. The figure turned into a wolf before my eyes, and I staggered backward. Not because it was a wolf, but because the wolf was looking like a half-human and half-monster. The only way to tell that it was in its wolf firm was the black fur covering the body. I could feel the air of vengeance surrounding
Damon's POV "What happened to your back?" I heard the woman I thought was still fast asleep ask me. I pulled the shirt over my back to hide the horrendous scar I knew must be freaking her out. When I turned around to look at her, she was biting her lower lips, feeling weary that she had crossed the boundary by asking that question. And yes, she had. I remembered having a guard whipped because he asked me the same question that she just did. Somehow though, I didn't feel the urge to get angry with her. I even felt relieved that she cared a little about me, enough to know what had happened to me.But I knew I wasn't ready to let go of the secret that had lived with me ever since I was fifteen years old. If anything, I wanted to forget it and pretend that it never happened in the first place. When she wouldn't stop chewing her lips though, I sighed, wondering when she was going to lose her fear of me."Don't worry. I'll tell you what happened some other time," I told her. Her relief was
Damon's POV I didn't need to think twice about the idea of getting her a phone. It was the most plausible way to get her to be able to get in touch with me whenever she wanted to. But first, I needed to make sure she was going to be okay while I was out to get the phone for her. I ignored the work I was doing and went to see her at the library. She was still there, deeply focused on the book she was reading that she didn't even notice that I was in the room with her. I cleared my throat to get her attention. The moment she looked up and saw that I was the one, she got up from where she sat and winced immediately."Ouch!" She groaned, holding her side of the stomach.I rushed over to her. "Are you okay?" I asked her.She got away from my hold and stepped back, putting a considerable distance between us. I closed my hands which were still extended when I tried to help her."I-I am sorry, Master. I didn't mean to make you run like th-that." She stammered to me.She was still scared of m
Evie's POV When Alpha Damon came to the library earlier on, I had only pretended to be deeply engrossed in the book I was reading. Nope, I wasn't really anything even though I was a true lover of books, and he seemed to have a whole lot of them in the place. How could I be able to read anything my mind was not settled?The man that was the incarnate of the devil himself was suddenly acting like the saint on high. What was I even saying? Not a saint. The man was acting like the deputy assistant of Jesus, who came to the world to die for the sins of all men. It was unsettling to see him acting that way. And I would prefer it a million times if the man would just act like the devil he was.I was looking for ways to escape from the house without alerting either the man or any of the maids and guards around the house. I would have succeeded -I almost succeeded- but the man cut that short. I was halfway through the living room to get to the door when I began to hear footsteps coming from
