Damon's POV It was apparent that I just spent the energy of the woman on the bed with me. Yet, I wasn't ready to let go of her. I still wanted more from her. So, I slid up her length on the bed where she was still trying to recuperate."I know I should ask for your permission before I do anything else, but I don't think I can bear a rejection from you right now," I told her gently."Don't worry. You won't get a rejection." She said, assuring me. Her hands wrapped around my neck. She leaned up slowly and captured my mouth in a hot, searing kiss. "I am your woman, after all." She sounded so unsure when she said that.It was evident that she was tired. I knew that only her adrenaline was keeping her going at this point. I should leave her be, but it was proving to be a difficult task for me. I didn't know if it was because the full moon was out today or because I had gone so long without a woman. Whichever one it was, I just knew that I wanted her.I gladly gave in to her kiss and wrapp
Damon's POV I stretched my taunt body and hissed at how my bed seemed somewhat hard. The pain in my body added to that, and I suddenly wondered why my soft bed turned hard overnight. As I stretched, I noticed a hand draped over my lower waist while a head rested on my chest. I chuckled as memories of the previous night washed over me. I opened my eyes and smiled at how she was holding me like I was going to run away if she released me for even a second. My body was taunted again at how hard the bed was, and I made a promise to myself to get her a much better bed. I closed and opened my eyes to stare at her. The first thing my eyes fell on, this time, were the two punctured marks on her neck.Wait a second!Two punctured marks?!"I flew up from the bed, carelessly dislodging her as I looked again and saw that the marks were indeed there."By the moon goddess!" I yelled in a voice loud enough for the entire pack to hear, if not the entire world. As expected, the woman woke up."What
Evie's POV I couldn't understand exactly why the Alpha had rushed out like he was stung by a cobra all of a sudden. Or maybe I did know why.It was because my presence was the cobra to him. He must have been awfully devasted when he realized that we were all alone the next morning. What more? We had sex together the night before.I sighed as I got up and went straight to the bathroom to freshen up. I didn't have the time and the energy to brood over something that had already happened. We both knew what we were doing, so there was no need for regret even if I felt used by the man.When I was done cleaning and dressing up, I left the mansion. Everyone had the grace to act normal around me and pretended like they didn't hear me moaning like a harlot the night before.I walked aimlessly all over the pack just to get the heaviness I felt off my mind. By the time I walked for over two hours, already deep into the forest, I knew that it was not going to help. Even the chilly morning didn’t
Damon's POV I had to tell Evie what I had done before anyone else would notice and tell her, but for the life of me, I didn't know how to face her. The only reason why I still felt a little at peace was because I was sure that even if anyone saw the marks on her, they would assume that she knew what they meant and she must have given her consent.Since they all knew she was mine, they wouldn't run their mouth around her. At least, not for now. Or maybe they would be so ridden by jealousy over the fact that she belonged to me and she had managed to snatch me for herself - something that they all failed to achieve over these years - that they would do exactly the opposite of what I thought of them.No! I shouldn't allow that to happen! I had to go in search of Evie and explain things to her. Now.I left where I was pacing and went to the door, only to have it slammed open in my face."Ouch!" I mumbled in pain, holding my nose together to keep the burning sensation out."My goodness, Al
Evie's POV I was the fool for thinking that because the Alpha suddenly changed toward me and treated me better, he was now a good man.How dare he claimed that the marking he gave me was nothing but a mistake?If I didn't know that the mark meant that I was going to be his wife, his life partner, the words might not have just so much, but I knew and that made it even worse. All I heard and subtracted from his words were that I was not fitted and never would be fitted to be called his partner.And what?How could he have tried to make it look like the marking would benefit me the most? Why should I care that I would be regarded as the second most important citizen when I knew that my life was going to be nothing but you're torture from the moment that the news about me carrying his marking began to spread? These savage people would kill me once they found out that truth.And what about Miss Kardashian? The woman saw nothing except the fact that the Alpha treated me well and announced
Evie's POV "Has any of you seen Evie around today?"I looked at Grace from where I hid behind the sofa to indicate for her to say no. She looked at me, then at the Alpha who asked her the question. By the time her gaze would settle back on mine, I could see that she was scared of lying to Alpha Damon about my whereabouts."Please," I mouthed to her. She turned away from me and bowed her head to the Alpha."No, Alpha." She lied smoothly.I heard the man sigh. For some reason, I felt that he knew I was hiding away from him. That had been the routine ever since a week ago when the incident of the marking or no marking had occurred. I hide away each time I heard the man's footsteps or voice, then he proceeded with looking for me until he let go and did other things on his agenda."Fine. But if you see her, can you let her know that running away is not going to cut it? I need to talk to her about what to do." He told Grace."Yes, Alpha.""I'm leaving now." He said, raising his voice a li
Alpha Damon's POV "Evie!" I yelled when I saw her eyes closing slowly. I bent over and grabbed her before her body would hit the cold hard floor. Even as I wrapped her around myself, my eyes still darted around to see if I could get a glimpse of the culprit.If I did, I swear to the moon goddess that whoever it was would be breathing their last and that was on a period.How bold of the person to attack somebody when they were with me! They must be tired of living.The guards stationed at the meeting hall raced to where I was and bowed their heads quickly before they surrounded me, their weapons ready to shield me."Find that damn shooter for me!" I yelled at them. I pointed in the direction the arrow came from. "There!"I picked Evie up and rushed back in the direction of the mansion. On the way, I mind-linked the doctor to come over. I also got Stephan and Samuel to let them in on what was going on. All the Omegas began to wail the moment they saw me rushing Evie in."She's not goi
Miss Kardashian's POV"So, did you do what I asked you to?" I asked the moment the doctor stepped into his office. He seemed startled by my voice as he looked up. When he saw me twirling in his chair, he sighed."How did you know she is going to be injured?" He asked me even as he took off his coat and hung it on the wall. He turned to me and sighed. "But no, I didn't do what you asked me to. There is no way I am going to kill an innocent person because you asked me to. Especially not when the person in question is a person I like." He turned away from me and began to sort his pieces of equipment back into place.How dare he refused my order? I thought as I banged my hands on the table in front of me, disrupting everything on the table as he had disrupted everything I had laid carefully to plan.It was such an easy task that I set before him. All he had to do was mix poison into the ointment that he was supposed to use on the wound that vixen whore acquired from the marksman I sent 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
