Evie's POV I was at the center of a garden, and my arms spread widely apart. I was inhaling the smell of the sunflowers that surrounded me, masking the air with all the goodness they had to offer. I closed my eyes and listened to the air swishing, making it seem like it was singing a calm, melodious tune. I felt myself drifting and drifting into its world of melodious tune as someone kept tapping me awake. Wait! Someone was tapping me? That felt like the wrong thing to feel. I opened my eyes with full force as I noticed that whoever the hands belonged to was not ready in any way to let me be. I tried to slap the hand away, but the person held my hand firmly, halting the impending attack I was planning. "Calm down. It is only me." The voice said to me. I relaxed as I realized that it felt somewhat familiar to me. I looked to the side and saw Alpha River sitting at the side of the bed I was resting on, his hand still holding mine. He squeezed it to reassure me and even smiled at me
Evie's POV It felt unique -to be out on a date and not have to worry about anything and everything. Knowing that no one was going to ask me to do things that I didn't want to just because it pleases them despite my discomfort. Also, knowing that I wouldn't be punished by some entitled bitch who felt that the world revolved around them and their breathing alone was refreshing to think of. And it was in the joy of that that I decided that I was going to enjoy my fresh breaths in peace, without having to worry about anything. Perhaps, the feeling of having my freedom was another reason why I was so open to Alpha River and told him everything that was on my mind, including my past. Well, as much as I could remember about my past anyway. The rest were just a blur of my raw emotions that I wanted to let out to someone who understood my plight. I guess I found the person in the form of Alpha River "I became an Alpha at the age of eighteen." He began. "For everybody else, I was already a
Alpha River's POV The way her eyes widened in fear, almost as if she had been expecting me to ask her to do something for me, was one that wouldn’t leave my memory in a hurry. I mean, it was not like I was going to ask her to give me back her life which I saved, but she was making it look like that was exactly what I would be asking her to do. And why was that? Simply because she thought that I was another Damon in disguise sent to torment her and her soul forever. Just how badly did she have her trust issue eat deeply into her? How far gone had Damon damaged her that a simple word of doing someone a favor already had her on edge? I smiled as I thought about the advantage I already had from the way she was being cautious. She might be weary of me and my request now, but once she knew who it was for, she wouldn't hesitate to make sure that it was all gone in the blink of an eye. After all, the task I was going to set before her required that she fucked the shit out of the man who s
Damon's POV When I had thought to enter the mansion area through the back route, I didn't think much about it other than the fact that I want Alpha River to see how disrespectful he had acted when he came to my pack land without prior notice. What I didn't expect was that I would stumble upon something so pleasant to my ears. And I heard it all. Every word that has transpired between River and Evie. The way the man had blatantly asked Evie to be his spy and how the woman had refused him and his offer. The way he had tried to be insisting and the woman had also insisted that she was not going to do such a thing no matter how hard he tried to get her to do that. To say I was impressed would be saying the least about these things. I was both impressed and happy. Yes, I stopped doubting her loyalty after she led me straight to that cloaked man. I had even had it at the back of my mind to announce her freedom as a slave to the entire pack just to show my gratitude to her. But the way sh
Damon/Leo's POV I continued racing through the pack's gate until I got us to the pack's gate. When I got there, I was stopped by the guards at the main gate who were frightened to see a wolf walk through the pack softly. I didn't bother to say anything to them. I knew that the moment they saw my golden eyes, along with my white fur, they would bow their head and let me through. Even without that, when they see Evie on my back, they would know who was walking. My thoughts worked. Once they realized one of the two, they all cleared the way and bowed their heads to me in respect. Seeing all the guards at the gate must have made Evie apprehensive because she tried to get down from my back. I turned my golden eyes at her and growled softly, warning her not to try what she was about to do. She must have seen how I was because she stopped and just sat there calmly as she did before. But there was one thing I noticed that was different about her. And that was the fact that she seemed to be
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
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
