Miss Kardashian's POV When Alpha Damon claimed that he was going to keep the space girl under his wings, I thought that he was only saying that to intimidate me into not troubling her anymore. But now, what? He was truly doing as he promised? He was indeed putting the girl under his care and even protecting her while at it? It might seem like my arrival at the things was far-fetched, but that was what I derived from the way he slugged his arm over her shoulders and the way he kept staring at me with that dark eyes of his that was enough to get anyone to plead guilty to something they didn't do.How dare that slave girl just stand still and enjoy the comfortable arm of my man for herself? Was it because she knew how much I would be hurt by the action and she had decided that she was going to do it and make me die silently as I watched on and pretended like I wasn't hurt by what I was seeing?I wanted to kill her. If only I could grab her by her hair and drag her across the entire mall
Evie's POV I was in trouble. I didn't need a soothsayer to tell me that. It was all glaring from the way Miss Kardashian stood by the door, her tall frame looking down on me where I sat. The book I had in my hands fell, but I didn't notice the entire thing. I just wanted the ground to open up and swallow me. Maybe that would be the easier way to get out of the mess I was currently in."I got you now, didn't I?" Her venomous voice rang straight to me. I died and rose a million times in my imagination of how the woman was going to deal with me. What if she decided that she was not going to beat me up this time around? What if, like the last time she treated me wrongly, she breaks my other arm and makes me have another internal damage? Or what if she decided that she was going to beat me till I fell dead?Tears began to slip from my eyes despite knowing that it was wrong to show the woman some sort of weakness about myself. She would prey on it and make me experience more emotional tur
amon's POV I watched as Miss Aurora and the pack doctor kept trying to hold Evie down to give her a shot. I could see that she was scared. She was already out of her wits that something bad was going to happen to her all over again. Even the reassuring words of the doctor and Miss Aurora had no power to calm her down. I knew that she was already traumatized by the number of beatings and maltreatment that she was forced to face all this while that she came to the pack. For the first time in my life, I felt useless. The power of being an Alpha no longer held any appeal to me as I saw that there was indeed one thing that I couldn't do with it. For the first time, I felt guilty about my existence. It was all my fault, I knew that now. I forced the innocent woman into being a shell of herself. And why? All because I didn't want to feel like a failure. Well, I ended up being the failure that I was desperately running from.My wolf whimpered within me, wanting to calm our mate down, but kn
Damon's POV I was broken at the age of fifteen. The time to grieve, vent, and heal from my raw emotions was not given to me. How could I get anything like that? I was the only child and the next in line for the position of the Alpha -a position I dreaded after seeing what happened to my parents. Right, my parents!They were the people I made sure that I never thought about ever since the unfortunate incident happened back then. To fulfill my duty as the next Alpha, I chose to shut them out completely from my life. At first, I was this scared young boy that was afraid of suddenly dying just as his parents did. Then, I decided in my heart that I was not going to end up like my parents and was intentional about doing everything that I could to fulfill that promise that I made to myself.That made me a hardened man as I had to let go of my bottled-up emotions one way or the other. The relief came in the form of anger after a man accidentally bumped into me. I ordered him to be flogged.
Damon's POV I got to the door of the room I hadn't visited for over ten years now. I laid my hands on the doorknob to open the door, and I began to shiver. My hands trembled, and I had to rest on the wall to keep myself balanced. That didn't seem to help my matter at all, and I slowly slid down the length of the wall I was resting on. I sat down on the floor and began to pant, gasping for breaths that refused to come as much as I tried.Even realizing that I was showing weakness didn't help my matter much. All I was grateful for was the fact that no one was around to see me in my weak state. Ever since my parents passed away, I made sure no one was allowed to come anywhere near their room. "No. I can't continue this way," I told myself. I forced myself to stand up from where I sat, and I opened the door forcefully before I got weak again.I moved slowly inside the room after I closed the door firmly behind me. My eyes fell on the pictures of my parents, and I sighed. After the incid
Evie's POV "Jesus Christ!" I yelled as I saw what should be considered an abomination. When I looked down and saw this thing I was staring at, it was because I was afraid of the man and I thought that he was going to penalize me when he saw that I slept on his bed for the second time again. But he chose that moment to raise his hands, and his towel also chose that exact moment to loosen itself from his waist and move to the floor.What the actual hell?I glanced up slowly, and the Alpha's black eyes met with mine. Screw it! I quickly forced my eyes to look away from him completely. Yes, I looked away, but the unholy image was already imprinted in my mind, such that I wasn't sure if I would be able to forget it anytime soon. The image even overrode the fear in my heart, and I knew that I was in a deeper mess. My cheek was stained red as my mind conjured up an image of me holding his dick in my hand to see if it was really as big as I think I saw it to be. He must have noticed my embar
Evie's POV I moved the photo left and right, forward and backward. It wasn't that I didn't see the picture clearly. It was just that I was really curious about who the parents of the man were.From every indication, I could see that Alpha Damon was the replica of his father, with the same color of hair, and the ever-black eyes that was enough to make men tremble when they came face to face with such eyes. His mother looked to be a simple woman with green eyes and wavy black hair. Now that I was staring at the picture of the two people who brought Alpha Damon to earth, I couldn't help but wonder why it seemed like I had never come across their pictures in the mansion before. True, I was always focusing on my work so as not to get on the wrong side of Miss Kardashian. Still, the fact that I had never seen even a single picture by accident made me marvel if there was more to see than meet the eyes. Even this very one I came across, I couldn't deny that my curiosity was piqued and I cou
Alpha River's POV I let out another sigh for what felt like that one million times. It wasn't my fault that I was feeling so low and down with myself, I just didn't know how to get out of my golden seat and just walk out in all these Elders. Even my wolf, Derek, was tired of all the torture these people were putting us through. I couldn't believe that for the past two hours, my Elders had been boring me with talks about how they settled fights all over the pack - something that was their primary duty. I couldn't complain about anything since today just happened to be our day for a monthly recap. And frankly, even though it sucked that nothing tangible was being discussed, it was the first time that the only notable thing that happened at the pack was countless fights - something unusual too.I might be a fearsome and ruthless Alpha, but never to my people. I treated them all with love, care, and affection. Yes, they feared me, but it was only as a subject that should fear his ruler.
