The unexpected alliance

Stefan’s POV“Stefan! What in the bloody name of the gods do you think you’re doing?” Emilia’s shrill voice echoed through the walls of the mansion as she stomped down the staircase towards me, where I was seated in the foyer. She was steaming with rage. “Why did you bring that woman here?!”I lifted my gaze from my phone and stared up at her, my expression darkening. “I brought her here because she needed help.” I tried my best to keep my tone calm and composed even though my insides were beginning to boil in anger and irritation. “Would you have preferred I left her to die?”Emilia’s eyes narrowed and her nostrils flared. “This has nothing to do with her life. This has everything to do with you bringing her into her home. You could have easily taken her to the hospital to get medical treatment. Our mansion is not a home for treatment!”“Sit yourself down, Emilia.” My patience was beginning to snap now, and my tone bore a strong warning that Emilia knew all too well. “You succeeded

Confronting the villain

Eve’s POVThankfully, the next morning, I was feeling a bit stronger, although the ache in my body still lingered. Because I had been lying in bed all day yesterday, hurting and beating myself for letting Vesper have his way with the pack, Jade suggested we take a walk in the garden to clear my head. At first, I had tried to turn her down, but her annoying persistence made me give in.As we strolled through the familiar, vast, and colourful garden with Jameson tagging along, I half smiled at myself as I watched him chase after butterflies and point at the vibrant flowers. I felt glad and a little relieved that Jameson was smiling again after the incident of that night. I hated that he had to witness all of that.I breathed in the fresh air with my eyes shutting momentarily. Somehow, it calmed my frayed nerves. Opening my eyes again, I took in my surroundings again, feeling nostalgia wash over me. It amused me that this used to be my home some time in the past. Everything about this ma

Reignited Passion

Stefan’s POVIn the solitude of my study, where I was going through paper works at my desk, the soft pattering of the feet of a child distracted me, followed by the faint sound of a bouncing ball. Before I could look up, the door of my study burst open, and the small figure of Eve’s son dashed inside. The boy, whose attention was on chasing the ball, didn’t notice any presence right away and accidentally bumped into the side of the desk.The impact caused the ball to ricochet off a shelf and then knock over my coffee cup that I was holding on my hand, causing its content to spill over the white shirt that I was putting on.“Shit.” Stunned, I looked down at the dark stain that was now spreading across my chest. I blinked repeatedly before lifting my gaze to the boy standing in front of me, looking mortified now.“I…I am so sorry.” He stammered, his eyes wide with horror, as he realised what he had done. He quickly bent down to retrieve the ball and clutched it nervously in his hands a

Eve’s Rules

Eve’s POVMaintain at least a five-foot distance from each other at all times.No unnecessary conversations unless they pertain to the safety of Moonsong packAbsolutely NO physical contact under any circumstances.I stared at the list in front of me, playing absentmindedly with the pen between my fingers and my lips tightened in a straight line. I nodded approvingly. This was good.After what had happened between Stefan and me at his study yesterday, I knew that I needed to set clear boundaries if I was really going to be here for this short period of time. Yesterday, my stupid heart had raced again. Even more than they used to. The last thing I needed was Stefan’s proximity to cloud my thoughts. This wasn’t about rekindling old flames or revisiting past mistakes. This was about getting my throne back. Nothing more.Even as I tried to assure myself this, my silly mind travelled back to the moment of yesterday when I had walked in on him looking hot and breathtaking in his shirtless

A Love That Burns

Eve’s POVThat evening, I was back to Stefan’s study. Again.I hated it here. Every single time I was in this space, things always almost happened between us. Things I could never bring myself to control no matter how much I tried to.I tried to steady my breath and then took a step back as Stefan moved closer to me. “What is it?” He asked me in that low, dangerous whisper that always sent shivers down my spine. “Cautious of me?”Then, he proceeded to close the space between us, his hall figure towering over me. He was so close that I could feel the warmth radiating from his body. I tensed at once as his large hands found the back of my waist. His grip was firm, yet gentle. It sent fire to my skin and the butterflies in my stomach fluttered again. Push him away, Eve!Slowly and gently, he brought my hands up, wrapping them around his neck. I sucked in a shaky breath through my mouth as my hands rested on his broad shoulders. The tension between us was so thick, it felt like it could

A Special Invitation

Eve’s POV“I love you so much Eve. And if I let this rage this over, I won’t stop. I won’t stop until I destroy everything and everyone that hurts you.”I pressed my palms against my eyes, trying to push the words away but it only seemed to grow louder. “Everyday, I am fighting the urge to tear this world apart for you. And that is because I love you, Eve! I know I’ve been a total asshole to you for years but I love you! I’ve always loved you! I love you so much that I might lose myself. And that is why I am holding back.”Ugghhhh!I grunted and threw the bed covers off of me as I sat up on the bed. It was almost two in the midnight and sleep was refusing to take over me. It annoyed the hell out of me.Maybe a drink would help.Sighing, I slipped out of bed and made my way down to the kitchen. My bare feet padded softly against the cool floor as I walked down the stairs. Once I got to the kitchen, I found a glass and poured myself some water. As I drank the water, I let the cold liq

The Thief of the Moment

Stefan’s POVAmidst the chattering and the clink of crystal glasses in the ballroom, my mind kept going back to Eve and I checked my wristwatch constantly for her arrival. But she was nowhere in sight. Maybe she was running late.As I moved through the crowd while they greeted me in respect and exchanged pleasantries with me, Emilia hung around me like a leech. Her perfectly manicured hand rested lightly on my arm as she hovered around me. Obviously as a show of possession. She played the role of a Luna so flawlessly just like she had always done. I couldn’t help thinking of that with a mild irritation. Every move she made seemed rehearsed. Her smiles never quite reached her eyes. She was trying to be ‘that’ Luna so hard and it was pretty obvious. I suppressed the urge to shrug off her hand a couple of times and take a step away but I didn’t want to embarrass her in front of everyone. “Lycan Stefan.” Alpha Calder of the Elixir pack greeted me once I reached the table he was sharin

The Dinner Party

Eve’s POVIt seemed as though all eyes gravitated towards me as I stepped into the grand ballroom. Jade had put in so much effort to make sure I looked stunning in a way that didn’t speak volumes that I put in so much effort.From the distance where Stefan stood with Apollo, I caught his eyes transfixed on me. In a way, it made me conscious of myself. But in a good way.This wasn’t my first time making a head turning entrance at a party. It was something I was used to and because of that, I wasn’t feeling anxious.As I walked into the party, ignoring the hundreds eyes on me, I noticed Emilia and a small group of girls sending me hateful glares. Emilia looked as though if she had the opportunity, she would rip me to shreds and pieces this instant.At the same time, I spotted Stefan’s mother heading straight towards me with an all-too familiar look of disdain. Her sharp features and icy glares were as intimidating as always and I paused on my heels, waiting for her to reach me.I braced

Flames Ignited

Eve’s POVI blink away the tears that had welled up inside my eyes fast as I hurried upstairs while dragging my torn dress behind me. Thankfully, no one seemed to notice me.Once I reached a room, I didn’t think twice before pushing it open and stepping inside. Once I was inside, I crumbed to the ground and allowed the tears to fall down my cheeks. My heart burned in anger and hatred.Of course, I wasn’t surprised that Emilia had gone that length to embarrass me but I blamed myself for giving her the space to do that. And I blamed myself more for agreeing to attend this stupid party in the first place.Wiping the tears off my eyes, I forced myself to get up on my feet and for the first time since I entered the room, I let my eyes take in my surroundings.And then my breath stopped at once.The pastel colored bedroom sent a wave of nostalgia through my body. The small vanity desk, the bookshelf that lined one of the walls, the paintings of lavender flowers and dandelion fields on the w

Desperate for an Escape

Eve’s POVStepping out of the room, I adjusted my dress and took in a deep breath before walking back into the party. The heat of my kiss with Stefan still lingered on my lips, the feeling of Stefan’s hands gripping her waist, pulling her in. Fuck. I had been careless and allowed myself to stupidly get swept up in the moment. I couldn’t help but wonder what could have become of us if we hadn’t been interrupted by that call. Would I have stupidly given myself to him again?As I rejoined the party, I caught sight of Stefan discussing with some Alphas and when our eyes met for a fleet of a second, I noticed how he seemed to pause and lose himself from the conversation he was having. My heart fluttered at the heaviness of his eyes on me and I found myself reliving the forbidden moment that we had just shared in that room.Thankfully, one of the Alphas pulled Stefan’s attention back to their conversation. With his attention diverted again, I let out a deep exhale that I didn’t know I h
