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.
Evie's POV A cock crowed in the distance, and I sighed. Two long hours of having the drop inserted into my veins with the promise that I was going to sleep, yet nothing of that nature happened to me. I didn't close my eyes for even two seconds, not to talk about sleeping for a full minute. Now, the drip was almost finished and I was still very much wide awake.No, it wasn't because the doctor lied about the reaction to the drugs. It was because my mind was lost in thought because of one man like that. I shuddered as I realized that I was about to start doing it again. I was about to start thinking about the same man all over again. Luckily for me, the door opened and I saw the doctor coming in. He seemed pretty surprised to see that I was wide awake. "I could have sworn that I was sure you would still be sleeping by now." He said as soon as he came to where I was. He examined the drip and smiled to himself when he saw that there were only a few drops left. "I calculated it right, di
Damon's POV The moment I laid my eyes on her, I ran over to where she was and hugged her tightly as if my life depended on it. She tried to get out of my hug, but I only held her tightly. She winced sharply, and I was reminded of her injury. I sighed when I released her and saw her holding her injured arm with the free one."Where did you go?" I asked her, holding her cheek and cupping it with my hand. After I returned from checking out the message the Alpha King sent to me -the letter turned out to just be about the man inquiring about the well-being of everyone at Night Wolves Pack in general- I returned hurriedly to the mansion, eager to see how Evie was faring, only to see that the woman was missing.Fear gripped me instantly. I couldn't help but feel that the woman had deliberately run away because she feared me. Why? Because of the kiss that we almost shared. I should loathe the kiss as much as I could, but I couldn't bring myself to reject it. If anything, I found myself feeli
Miss Kardashian's POV Damon had the audacity to put me onto the prison for the second time! And that too in the space of three days?! How dare that man?!No, not how dare Damon. It should be that woman who called herself Evie that I should be looking for ways to finish off. It was her. It was all her fault. If she wasn't in the picture, Alpha Damon would never change to me the way he did. Heck, I was someone the man idolised. I could still remember how he became obsessed with me very much. It had all begun just the way he was starting to behave to Evie. The man had always watched out for me and showed me care. Of course, I saw the golden opportunity in it and had easily pit myself more forward for him, and that was how we became so intimate, and I had power to weird because of my association with him. After all, no one wanted to cross path with the Alpha's woman.That was exactly why I was so worried. What if that human girl saw the same opportunity that I saw and she decided that s
Alpha Damon's POV I had to do something about the pack Elders. It seemed like they were beginning to not take me seriously because they felt that I was no longer the Alpha that they should all fear anymore. I didn't blame them. After all, about three of them had been nothing but rude to me these past few days. Yet, I did nothing to put them in their places. That gave them the gut they needed to call for an emergency meeting without any prior notice to me.What was the reason for the said emergency meeting? They all wanted to know why I thought nothing of my arresting Miss Kardashian. I didn't mind though, since I was going to call for a meeting to let them know what my decision would be about the woman and them in general."So, do any of you care to let me know why it is that this meeting is taking place?" I questioned. I sat forward in my golden seat, and I eyed each one of them one after the other."The meeting... the meeting... right... to discuss what to do about Miss Kardashian.
Damon's POV As soon as we were out of the hearing shot of the Elders, my Beta was the first one to speak."Not that I am countering your order, but don't you think Miss Kardashian might die if she actually gets beaten in front of the people she always creates fear in?" He asked.Before I could say a word, Gamma Samuel hissed. "Let her be humiliated. Who cares? That arrogant and wicked woman should get a dose of her own medicine back. Stop trying to make some kind of excuse for her." "I am not making any excuses for her. I don't like her either, but between her and that human girl the moon goddess decided to mate Damon with, I think I prefer Miss Kardashian. At least, she knows what our lineage is like and she would do everything in her power to protect it. Not like that human girl who knows next to nothing about what werewolves are." Beta Stephan protested again."You and your damn prejudice. I still think that Evie will be good for the pack. All she needs is just a little bit of tr
Evie's POV I was torn between taking the Alpha's offer or demanding for my freedom. While the thought of being free sounded nice, I knew that I shouldn't be deceived by such a thing. After all, I knew that the outside world would be even harsher than the world that I knew here at the pack. The way everyone would keep coming for my head, especially when they all realized that I didn't know anything about survival rate. When I said survival, I meant a roof over my head, a source of income, and a way to protect myself generally.What they would think, especially men was that I would be easy to pick on since there would be no one to defend me from them. Also, the fact that I would be broke played another major part in the decision that I must take. While I was at the pack, I would always be under the protection of the Alpha as he had shown the past few days. And then, I would not be forced to work till my body felt like giving way. And the plus of it all, I was going to be getting paid
Damon's POV I noticed it first before I saw what was going on. It was from noticing that the hand she had on me had already slacked off before I even saw her on the floor, which made me look for where she was supposed to be. I didn't see her, and my eyes trailed to the floor where I suddenly saw her lying there, unconscious of her environment. Fear gripped me, and I bent low to see what was going on."Evie!" I yelled. The man that was fighting with me over whether or not he should be allowed to see her raced to my side and began to shake her lightly."What happened to her?!" He yelled at me."I bloody don't know, man!" I yelled right back. The two of us began to shake her even as we continued to shout her name in the hope that she would hear and answer us. The Beta and the Gamma both came to where Alpha River and I crouched low beside the woman that fainted."Samuel, get the pack's doctor! Now!" I yelled at my Gamma. I wrapped my hands around her body and picked her up. "Oversee any
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
