EVE As we reached Kha's truck, his seething anger was impossible to ignore. Though I wasn't afraid of him and knew he would never harm me, his intense fury made me deeply uncomfortable. I longed for the calm of the past few days.Kha started the truck and began to pull away, suddenly rolling down the windows. Confused, I looked over at him, only to be met with a harsh accusation."I can fucking smell him on you," he spat out.I stammered, "How, I didn't... oh, I did.""Yeah, you fucking did. You had your hand all over him. I'm sure he just loved that," Kha retorted.I snapped, unable to hold back any longer. "Okay, no, Kha, we are not doing this. I only did that to save you from getting arrested today. If you hadn't freaked out like that, I wouldn't have been in that position."Kha looked at me in disbelief, his eyes flickering rapidly between red and brown. "He was sitting at the table with you when I walked in. Please don't act like I didn't walk in on something. You wanted to ta

KHA Mom turned her attention to Eve. "Would you like to help me cook dinner tonight?" she asked.Eve nodded, "Of course, but Kha and I have to head to practice in a couple of hours. Would you like to come watch?" She glanced at me with a playful gleam in her eye. Oh great, they're already teaming up on me. Internally, I groaned in mock despair. Yet, I couldn't suppress a laugh as Vance did a backflip. Vance loved Mom. She was the only other human he truly tolerated. The idea of having Lori and Eve together made him practically giddy.Mom looked at us. "Why is she going to practice with you? You're not that obsessed, are you, son? Don't be like your father, please."I sighed, knowing this conversation was inevitable. "Mom, Drake is there, and I'm having... issues with him."Mom understood immediately.Before she could voice her thoughts, I interjected, "Yes, Mom, it happened with her as well." I hadn't yet told her the part of my parents' story that eerily mirrored our current si

EVE Riding in Kha's truck to practice, I couldn't help but smirk a little as Kha panicked about his mom getting into the backseat. Good, be embarrassed about it. You need to be. I know I will never get in that backseat again, that's for sure.Kha quickly kissed my cheek as he showed his mom and me to the bench, then hurried off to the locker room to change. Lori turned to me. "I didn't mean to overwhelm you earlier, darling. I just know my son and his genes. He would beat around the bush about this until the last moment, and you don't deserve that."I nodded. "I love Kha," I said, watching Drake walk onto the field, already dressed out. He scanned the crowd until he found me and smiled.Beside me, Lori shivered. Curious, I asked, "What was that?"She sighed, looking at Drake suspiciously. "Okay, I don't want to sound biased, and I'm sure I will regardless, but honey, that boy wants you for one reason and one reason alone... so you can fix a problem for him."I looked at Lori, surp

EVE Walking onto the field, I half-expected someone to stop me, but to my surprise, no one did.Not even the coach.I approached Kha and Drake, seething myself. "Stop already," I demanded, my voice steady despite my racing heart. "This will get neither of you anywhere."Kha's reaction was immediate. "Eve, please get off the field," he pleaded, looking around at the players. But I stood my ground. "Not until you both agree to stop! I'm not kidding!" I insisted, looking back and forth between them. My presence on the field, breaking the usual norms, seemed to stun them both momentarily. It was a clear sign of my desperation for them to see reason and understand that this display of aggression wasn't solving anything.It only exacerbated the tension and the danger. This would end with one of them injured, and then I would have to live knowing I had caused it. They weren't thinking this through, or if they were, they sure as hell didn't care about my feelings here. That much was becom

DRAKE I berated myself for losing control yet again. What about this girl is making me act this way? My thoughts were a jumbled mess. Emory, my usually calm wolf, had become agitated and restless around Eve, which was entirely out of character for him.Catching the water bottle Eve threw me, I couldn't help but notice Kha's reaction, or instead, his lack of response. Perhaps his mom's presence was a deterrent to his usual explosive temperament. Holding the bottle, I deliberately took slow, measured sips, glancing subtly at Kha each time. The look on his face every time I drank from the bottle his girlfriend had given me was too enticing to ignore. It was a small victory, but even minor triumphs were significant in our complicated rivalry.Exhaling deeply, I tried to refocus on the reason we were here. "Look, we have a game tomorrow, and we need to be focused on practicing," I said, setting the bottle aside. "Let's say what needs to be said and get this over with."Kha, still se

EVE I was reeling as I stood there, wedged between Kha and Drake again, preventing them from coming to blows. Drake's words, accusing Kha of controlling me, echoed in my head. It upset me even more when I realized there was a sliver of truth in his accusation. I often find myself tiptoeing around Kha's moods and emotions. But I had committed to Kha, fully aware of his struggles, and I had chosen this path with my eyes wide open. Nothing was going to sway me from it.The next day, Kha drove us there instead of taking the bus. It was only a few hours away, and he didn't relish being cooped up on the bus for so long.I wouldn't be allowed on the bus with him if we were honest about the real reason.Before we left, Lori mentioned she was going to see Kha's dad and would meet us the next day."He probably doesn't even know I'm in the US right now," she commented.Kha chuckled. "He knows, Mom.""Did you tell him?" she asked.He laughed. "You think we talk like that? No, he used to tell

KHA The game against the other team was intense, but it became personal when an Alpha player on the other team made a derogatory comment about "my little girlfriend in the stands." Hearing that made my blood boil.I tried to channel my anger into the game, looking for opportunities to confront him on the field without causing a scene. My efforts quickly racked up penalties, and I realized I needed to back off. I knew Eve would be proud of me for exercising some restraint, even though every fiber of my being screamed for retribution.When the game ended, I was eager to have Eve join me on the field. But as I looked up, I saw that player blocking her at the bottom of the steps. Something inside me just snapped. The next thing I knew, we were in a full-blown fight. I was so consumed by rage that I barely even remember the details of the altercation.Sitting in the holding cell at the police station, I struggled to keep calm. Vance hated confinement and was going stir-crazy. I coul

EVE As Drake pulled into campus, Kha hesitated to reveal our rental location, so we decided to get dropped off at my dorm instead. The door to the dorm had been fixed since the last incident, but Kha was still wary about sneaking in."Stop worrying, and come on," I urged him, confident we could get in without trouble. To our relief, we managed to slip into the dorm undetected. We found Rissa sitting there, looking up with surprise and amusement."Really... I haven't seen you for a week, and when you finally return, you bring him?" she said as she eyed him playfully.I punched her arm. "Thanks for the heads-up, Peppy," I said.Rissa turned to Kha. "Well, I'm not allowed to tell you... I guess that rule doesn't extend to the alphas on campus."Her eyes widened as she noticed my ring. She grabbed my hand, her initial excitement morphing into a playful punch aimed at Kha, who dodged it. "Good job, alpha," she said.As I plugged in my phone, Kha sent a quick text to Lori explaining t

EVE He drove back to campus the next day, and everyone acted like nothing had happened at the game the night before. I guess Drake really did have the pull he said he did. I was in my second class when I noticed something peculiar. There were always blonde-haired, blue-eyed people around me now. Always watching. Always walking by. Constantly... monitoring what I was doing.At first, I tried to ignore it, thinking it was just my imagination. But as the day went on, it became impossible to dismiss. Their presence was too consistent, too deliberate. I was going to wait to tell Kha until we got back to the rental, but when one almost ran into me and then sniffed the air subtly, I had enough. The intrusion was too blatant to overlook any longer.I spotted Kha in the hallway shortly after and hurried over to him. "I think Drake has people following me around," I blurted out.Kha's eyes turned red, his protective instincts flaring up immediately as he looked around and noticed the sa

EVE They moved Drake to a room to watch him overnight. I helped get everything set up, ordering a few things he might need. He liked sushi too, so we ended up having a really late dinner together, sitting in his hospital room."Thanks for coming with me, seriously," Drake said between bites of his sushi. "I'm pretty sure Dad only came so fast because Lori was with him."I couldn't help it. The curiosity was too strong. "So, what's the deal with your dad and Lori?"Drake sighed and leaned back against the pillows. "They were... involved on and off. He never made any effort to hide it from me. It got so bad sometimes I started thinking Lori might be my mom too."I nearly choked on my food. "So, you don't even know who your mom is?""Nope," he said bitterly. "And my dad flat-out refuses to tell me."I glanced at him, my mind racing. "And Lori? Could she be your mom?"He laughed, shaking his head. "No. If she were, my wolf would look like Kha's.""You know, I don't have the first
