Eva was ecstatic to be reunited with her family. She kept a watchful eye on her siblings, determined to keep them safe from Tina's grasp. Eva couldn't believe that Tina had managed to trick them all. She realised that Tina was far more cunning than she had initially thought. "Daddy, where is mummy?" Eva's ears perked up as she heard her younger sibling's question. She noticed the sadness in her father's eyes as he tried to come up with an answer. Eva knew it wasn't the right time to tell them the truth. "Your mother is away on a business trip, but she'll be back soon," he replied, trying to sound as reassuring as possible. Just as the atmosphere began to tense, the Alpha burst through the door, looking cross about something. Eva was relieved to see his face soften when he saw the twins. "How are my favourite twins today?" he grinned at them, picking them both up in his arms. The twins were yelling excitedly about ice cream, and the Alpha nodded to Tim and Eva befor
"Your mate?" Alpha Morgan circled Rachel suspiciously, and his eyes narrowed as he took in her trembling form. He growled lowly, and his hackles raised as he sensed the tension in the air. John hung his head in shame, his eyes downcast as he nodded. "She's telling the truth. I'm having an affair with Alexia," he admitted, his voice filled with regret. "She satisfied me more than her." Rachel gasped in disbelief and fell to her knees, her heart pounding. Alpha Morgan was horrified at this admission and turned to Sebastian with blazing eyes. "Did you know about this?" he asked, his voice laced with anger. "No, alpha, this is news to me. I thought he was Alexia's mate," Sebastian answered honestly, his eyes darting nervously from Alpha Morgan to John and then resting on Alexia. “Why would you lie, Alexia?” Sebastian demanded his old friend's knowledge, but she did not want to explain herself. “He’s with me now.” She threw a filthy look at Rachel and wrapped her ar
Inside Alpha Morgan's office, the tension lingered in the air as Alexia, Rachel, and John sat anxiously, waiting for the truth to be revealed. The room was dimly lit, casting long shadows on the worn bookshelves that lined the walls. The Alpha took a deep breath, breaking the silence over them. Rachel's heart pounded as she braced herself for what was to come. She hoped that the truth would finally clarify the confusion that had enveloped her life. John, on the other hand, wore a mix of apprehension and guilt on his face, knowing that he had played a significant role in this complicated web of deceit. Alpha Morgan cleared his throat and started to recount the events that had led to this moment. He spoke of forbidden love, a secret affair, and the consequences that followed. He revealed the true nature of Tina, the woman who had once been Eva’s stepmother, and the dark secrets she had concealed within her heart. As the words spilt from the Alpha's lips, Rachel could fee
Eva knew that for proper healing to occur, a confrontation between Tina and the pack was necessary. The wounds she had inflicted were deep, and forgiveness could not be granted without acknowledging the magnitude of her actions. Despite her reservations, Eva decided it was time for Tina to confront the consequences of her betrayal. Eva approached Tina, her eyes filled with pain and determination. She knew this conversation would be difficult, but it was a crucial step towards the pack's healing process. Tina, face filled with remorse, saw the anguish in Eva's eyes and hung her head in shame. Their conversation mixed tears, anger, regret, and apology. Tina pleaded for forgiveness, her voice trembling with genuine remorse. She admitted that her actions were selfish and driven by fear. She confessed that she had been envious of Eva's love and happiness and allowed her insecurities to blind her to the damage she was causing. Eva listened, her heart
The next morning Eva awoke and stretched out her body as the previous day's events flooded back into her kind. She felt happy that things with Tina were finally sorted and they could all move forward. Sebastian lay asleep next to her, and she smiled to herself. She felt so lucky to have him and how he stood by her side, he was terrific. She remembered how her ex-boyfriend had treated her like rubbish the minute that she had left her hometown. “What a loser.” Eva chuckled to herself as she got out of bed and went towards the bathroom. She stared at her reflection and got undressed to have a shower. The water hitting her body felt so refreshing. As Eva stood under the cascading water, she let her mind wander, reflecting on the past few days' events. The coldness of the water on her skin felt invigorating, washing away the remnants of sleep and leaving her feeling rejuvenated. Lost in her thoughts, memories of her ex-boyfriend resurfaced. How he treated her after s
“The twins are safe. We found them but Tina is nowhere to be seen.” One of the warriors came to inform Tim and Eva. “What? Where?” Sebastian hurried over when he heard the news. “Just on the edge of the pack border. They are safe now and ok. The Alpha wants to see them and ask them what they may know.” The warrior continued to say. “Oh thank goddess!” Tim gasped rubbing his forehead while Sebastian breathed a sigh of relief as he hugged Eva to his chest. “I need to see them first.” Tim suddenly said a hint of urgency in his voice and the warrior gave a nod and gestured for them to follow him. “Eva, are you ok?” Tim turned to his oldest daughter and frowned as she suddenly threw up all over the pathway. “Eva!” Sebastian exclaimed. “Tim, go to the twins. I will see to Eva.” Eva could only shake her head weakly. She felt as though all her energy had been drained from her body. Sebastian wasted no time, scooping her up into his strong a
Alpha Evan approached Tim with a heavy heart, his face etched with a combination of sorrow and determination. He could hardly bear to deliver the devastating news, but it was his responsibility as the pack's alpha. Taking a deep breath, he spoke softly but with unwavering resolve, "Tim, I need to share something with you..." Tim's eyes met Evan's, and concern etched across his face as he sensed the gravity of the alpha's tone. His heart skipped a beat, fearing the worst. He swallowed hard, bracing himself for the words that would shatter his world. His voice trembled as he asked, "What is it, Evan? Please, tell me." Evan took a moment to steady himself, aware of the crushing weight his words would have on Tim's soul. In a sombre tone, he began his painful revelation, "There was an attack, Tim... Tina... the rogues ambushed her. They outnumbered her and caught her off guard. Despite her valiant effort, she didn't survive." Time seemed to stand still as the words sank in. Tim's breath
Eva Smith sighed as the bus screeched to a stop. Looming out the window she saw people waiting for their loved ones. She knew she was not going to be as lucky as them. Nobody would be waiting for her since nobody had wanted to know since her mother had died in the accident her drug-addicted step father had caused. He had gone awol before the police could find him, leaving Eva practically an orphan. Since she was only seventeen years old she was still a child in the eyes of the law. That is how she had come to find herself back in the quiet town of Newpark. Today would be the first time Eva came face to face with her biological father, after ten years. Eva's parents had got divorced for reasons her mother never wanted to divulge. Eva had not seen her father since the day he walked out. At first, she received calls and letters but that did not take long to fizzle out when her father met someone new. Eva could not help but feel worthless and unimportant. Of course, her mother had
