Evelyn's POV
We all rode the bus silently, no one uttering a word after I had gone silent. Even Clara and Janice just sat beside me, as they gave physical support for me to be strong.
I took a breath of sigh before snapping everyone's attention to me. "Alright, clearly Xavier is that version of little evil sinister mind that would do anything as a minion of Esmeralda. So, let's stop him."
Silver would've appreciated me for the encouraging small speech I gave right now.
"Um... Eve. We have already been doing that. Why do you think we're on a bus in the first place?" Janice voiced out after a 10-minute silence we had like we were mourning for someone's death.
Well, yeah, death of my love.
"To get a room in a motel and definitely to eat something, 'cause I'm hungry," Clara replied to Janice with her eyes fixated on her phone's screen.
Evelyn's POVI spread out my palms against the flooring of the bus as my mind felt like it was ripping apart. The others quickly crouched down to my height, calling me out but I could hear them from distance."Why is this happening to me?!" I groaned, frustrated, irritated, hurting, and hoping. It was a wild whirl of emotions, twisting in my head.I don't know whether it was my head or Xavier's because I felt everything at once. The ones I don't think I was capable of.The trust was the most needling my brain. I could hear something but everything stayed weirdly uncleared."Evelyn, get a grip!" Clara tried to push me out of this misery."I can't- do something." I choked out, unable to take in the new feelings."What do we do?" I heard her ask Jace.Jace was skeptical as he worriedly looked over me. I was able to ma
Clara's POVIt's me again because I missed myself."Because clearly, no one missed you. Not even our mate because you thought it would be best to fall in the case of hit and run." I rolled my eyes at Eclipse's accusation.She's never not ending this and she's gonna get the least of it.Maybe even squeeze it to get more of it. Every last drop counts.Describing this makes me go hungry for some strawberry milkshake."So, what are we gonna do now?" Janice asked while I was talking with my consciousness."We are first gonna go to In and out then get some sleep, probably a little shopping-" I was cut off."Did you forget we're on the bus because of Xavier? The Oh-so-Xavier who's gonna pipidipapidi poo your grandmother to present from past." Jace said, annoyed."I do remember that. But Evelyn nee
Evelyn's POVI needed a distraction.And my family was a very good excuse for a distraction. Like literally. They took my mind off Xavier in mere minutes by their own little circus show."Don't move!" Janice growled lowly, taping Clara's mouth. I was holding onto her as she tried to escape from my lap.Clara mumbled something, glaring at her before she paused, and then it hit us."UNTAPE ME THIS INSTANT. I'M LUNA FOR GOODNESS SAKE! WHAT TREATMENT AM I GETTING!?" She screamed in our mind links.My brain fuzzed a little due to the sudden receptive noise pollution from her. "Gosh! I didn't know your volume could increase in our mind links." I hissed, clutching my head as I felt an ache coming.I had let go of her and not knowing how she was sitting on my lap, she fell on her back the instant I let go of her. I gasped, looking at her shocked plastered face that soon morphed into small tears escaping from her eyes."I'm pregnant, you shackle heads..."Her choice of words though. I muffled m
Evelyn's POVThis has got to be some nightmarish day where I just woke up on the wrong side of the bed. There's no way I marked him."This never happened!" I cried out, covering up the mark."That must be why I was able to mind link you, Evelyn," Clara said with her eyebrows knitted.I stayed silent, turning away as they all gave me a look of displeasure or it was something I was finding myself in my eyes. I didn't know Xavier had the pack mark. We never civilized like two normal people. Every day with him was drawn into suspicion or accusation."We'll talk about this later. Right now we gotta settle in for a night." Mom spoke up, standing up as the bus came to a halt.It seemed we've reached our destination. The board of San Deigo could be seen over the motel that mom planned for our stay there for a while. Janice gave a worried glance at me as she climbed down the bus. Mom was out by the steps of the bus do
Evelyn POVI wasn’t going to agree to her newest punishment idea which only benefitted her. She clearly wanted Xavier for nothing but her personal use. “Xavier won’t be even staying alive once we stop him from all that stupidity he’s doing,” I stated, standing up and wanting to take a walkout in the rain.As much as that sounds displeasing, getting away from Clara sounded better. Gosh, I sound like I’m on my periods.Man periods that is.“We can’t just kill him. He’s your mate. If he dies, you won’t be able to live for long.” She said, her tone lowering at the latter words.I turned my head to her, placing my hand on the doorknob. “That would’ve been a case if I ever loved him, but I don’t. So if him dying sounds better then I want nothing other than that. We may as well get away from all kinds of trouble once the last of Esmeralda's relations ends.”“I’m one of her relations.” She whispered. I closed my mouth, staring at her piercing eyes that was wanting me to give Xavier another c
Evelyn’s POV Janice stretched out her hand, showing the parcel she had brought which would tame the wild wolf a.k.a none other my Luna, Mrs. Clara Millard. She sniffed the parcel, eyeing the packet and then at us before she stood upright, clearing her throat. “Well, I’m glad you both made it here in one piece.” She took the parcel from her hand, placing it on her other hand when she noticed the bottom was wet. She scrunched her nose, disgusted as she picked it up and saw her sleeve getting dirtied. She whirled her head at Janice who was grinning cheekily. “Mind I get an explanation?” Clara demanded. Her demand was sadly rejected. “No. I’m tired, let’s just eat and sleep for the day.” Janice yawned, moving away from the sun rays that were falling on her face. “You’re right though. I have no idea where Xavier could be at this moment.” Clara emulated her yawn, rubbing her eye as she spoke in a lousy tone. Watching their yawns made me sleepy and yawn as well but I sub
Evelyn's POVThe moment I entered the room, I decided to turn back around and rather die in hands of Xavier or be a beggar on the road."Uh uh where you going?" Janice turned me back around, hooking her arm over my shoulder."Just... on a little stroll. Yeah." I tried to play with excuses knowing I suck at them.Even Clara is smart at giving excuses. Well her life is an excuse itself."In this weather?" Janice raised her brows at me expectantly looking for an answer or she was just bemused and played along to my act of escape.I stammered, "Uh... Yeah 'cause why not?"She looked boringly at me before shaking her head in dismissal. "I thought you would be better at this but you clearly need some classes.""I need sunglasses but the kind that blocks my view entirely." Jace muttered, standing behind me with a shocked
Evelyn's POVI pointedly looked at the bag that was emitting some weird aura around it. I just couldn't divert my attention from it."Your arms are so thin." Clara commented, snapping me back to the present situation."Huh? No it's not-..." I looked down at my arms and realized she was talking about Xavier's arms. "Ah... yeah he's weak."Clara measured my wrist, wrapping her fingers around it. "Man... too much weak."I shrugged, finding it strange that I got comfortable in his body pretty quickly or... I just haven't took a trip to the bathroom.I'll just hold it in when I have to go."What's in that bag?" I asked, bugged by its presence."I'll tell you in the room.""Why not now?" I can't wait patiently."Because it's... dangerous." She stated, knocking on the door.
