Semua Bab Bound to the Alpha Brothers : Bab 81 - Bab 90

Cyrus When I arrived last night, I didn’t get to see Kolton. Apparently, he was indisposed, but I sensed it was all a strategy to humiliate me. I didn’t go searching for him and simply went upstairs. I’d asked Brock and Cameron to stay put. I told them that I’d let them know tomorrow—which was now today—what my decision was. They could either keep looking or go home and call the search off. Depending on my interaction with Kolton, I would’ve made the decision, but since I didn’t get to talk to him, my team was on standby. I left my bedroom in a pissy mood. I was thankful that Leonora wasn’t lingering around or I would definitely take my frustration out on her. Her father kept making me look like an idiot and I didn’t appreciate that. Why would he invite me for dinner only to blow me off when I accepted the invitation?This time, I felt sure that I’d find him in his office. I wasn’t wrong. He was there with his daughter. Not entirely alone, but not as alone as I hoped. I met her ga

EvaThe new place was dusty and impossible to live in. Before we settled, we had to clean. Everyone got their hands dirty and helped make the space beneath the ground more hospitable. I was dead exhausted by the time we were done. I couldn’t even move my legs as soon as I collapsed on top of the mattress we placed in the office space, which was the space Nox and I would be occupying for the time being. It wasn’t fair to the others that we got to get some privacy and they didn’t, but he was the Alpha of Ghost Moon, and technically, I was the Luna. If we couldn’t get a few privileges, then what was the point?I waited for him in the dark. He showed a few hours later, exhaling sharply as he closed the door. He sank onto the mattress next to me, a groan leaving his lips. “Nox?” I said. He turned his head to face me. “You’re awake?”“I was waiting for you,” I told him. I felt his warm hand on my cheek and sighed contentedly. These were the moments that made all of this worth it. I h

EvaMy heart was slamming against my throat. I was in a permanent state of disbelief. How had such a thing happened? We’d spent the whole day alert. Nox wouldn’t leave the roof for a second. He tried to play it cool but he was very nervous. I’d only managed to get him down from there like fifteen minutes ago so he could have something to eat and rest for a bit. And within that time, we’d been attacked. To make matters worse, whoever was out there knew his name. Currently, Nox and I were barricaded in the office. It had been a mistake and now we were going to pay for it. We should’ve ran when we had the chance. Nox had been so busy supporting at the people who came downstairs that he didn’t have a chance to go up. He was protecting me, and now, I’d landed us in this situation. He wanted me to hide in the office but I couldn’t leave his side, and when more and more of the intruders came down here, we were both forced to hide. Nox was out of bullets. “Shit!” he cursed. “Fuck!”His d

EvaI awoke feeling like my head was filled with lead. I could barely move my head without feeling like my skull was splitting in two. The pain was so intense that I couldn’t open my eyes. There was a terrible buzzing sound in my ears that made me feel like I was surrounded by wasps. I groaned and tried to roll over. A sound in the room made me open my eyes abruptly, ignoring the pain. I saw a woman dressed in a white uniform leaving the room, which so happened to be the room at the clinic. I’d been here before, and the idea of being back was so depressing. I was here. What happened to Ghost Moon and Nox hadn’t been a dream. The woman—a nurse—returned with the doctor behind her. I tried to remember his name but nothing came to mind. He approached me with a small smile on his lips and said, “Hello, Eva. Welcome back to the real world.”“There’s nothing real about this,” was my answer as I tried to get into a more comfortable position. “My head hurts a lot. Is there any way I can get

Eva“No,” I said. It was the only word that I could even think about uttering. “It’s the truth,” she insisted. “I had to run away from Kolton to hide away here. I was afraid of him and afraid of what he could’ve done to you. I didn’t want him to ruin you the way he did his daughter, Leonora. She’s a terrible person. And you, Eva, were always meant to be good.”“You’re my mother,” I said even though I couldn’t quite believe it. It wasn’t a question. Right now, I wasn’t even sure of what I felt about this. Maybe my senses would return to me slowly. “I knew the Convent would be your best shot at freedom,” she told me. “I knew they wouldn’t mistreat you. It wouldn’t be like abandoning you in front of someone’s door and letting them treat you as they wished. No, in a convent, there would be religion. You’d be treated fairly. It was also the last place he’d look. Meanwhile, I stayed here, where it wasn’t that far away. I changed my identity and worked for the Daxen family. If Kolton ever
