Evelyn's POV

The car ride home was quiet at first. I leaned my head against the window, watching trees blur by, but my mind stayed fixed on one thing.

I turned to him at last. “So… about last night.”

Dominic’s grip on the wheel didn’t falter, but a faint smirk tugged at his lips. “What about it?”

“You said I owe you a favor for switching rooms.” My voice was softer than I meant it to be.

His eyes flicked to me briefly, before he returned them to the road. “You do,” he said simply.

My heart sk

  • Flash Marriage with the Homeless Alpha   Chapter 60: Make Him Choose

    Amanda POV The café was nearly empty, the faint hum of the refrigerator the only sound around us. Vivienne sat across from me, legs crossed, a smug little smile on her lips like she’d won the lottery.I hated her face right now.“You said you’d ruin them,” I snapped, fingers tightening around my cup. “You swore Evelyn wouldn’t forgive him after what happened. But guess what? They’re still together.”Vivienne gave a lazy shrug, twirling her straw. “It’s not my fault she’s blind. She saw me all over him, and still ran back to him like a lovesick fool.”I bit back a curse. She didn’t understand. Dominic was supposed to fall. Evelyn was supposed to walk away. Instead, they’d just gotten closer.My voice dropped. “Do you even realize how much trouble I went through to make this happen?”Her smile didn’t budge. “Your little plan obviously didn’t work.”I leaned in, lowering my voice further. “I’m not done yet.”I slid a brown envelope across the table. Vivienne looked up, curious. “What’s

  • Flash Marriage with the Homeless Alpha   Chapter 59: Are We Breaking Up?

    Evelyn's POV The air was cold when I stepped into the small courtyard behind the herbal shop. From the outside, it looked plain, even worn down, but I hadn’t come because of appearances.The wind stilled as I crossed the threshold. The scent of burning sage and old wood filled my lungs. My heartbeat quickened, and the restless stir beneath my skin moved.The witch waited, silver streaks in her hair, sharp eyes watching me. “You came on your own,” she said. “That’s good. It means you’re ready to stop pretending.”“I’m not here for magic,” I said. “I’ve just been feeling strange. Tired. Hot. Angry. Like something’s trying to claw its way out.”“That’s your wolf,” she said. “She’s waking up.”My stomach tightened. “And if I don’t want her to, yet?”“You don’t get to choose. But you can choose how much it hurts.” She pulled a small pouch of herbs from a carved box. “This will ease the pressure. But it won’t stop what’s coming.”I took the pouch. When our fingers touched, heat shot throug

  • Flash Marriage with the Homeless Alpha   Chapter 58: Evelyn Knows

    Teresa's POV I wasn’t trying to snoop. I only came down to the parking lot to grab my tote from the car. But echoes traveled too well down there, and the moment I heard Dominic’s voice, I froze behind one of the concrete pillars.“Say that again,” he said.Cass hesitated. “Vivienne spiked your drink. We confirmed it. She planned it so Evelyn would walk in and see.”Dominic’s chest tightened. “She saw Vivienne all over me. Half undressed. It looked like we’d slept together.”Cass’s voice dropped. “But she didn’t, right?”Dominic’s jaw clenched. “Of course not. I’d know. And I don’t want anyone but Evelyn.” Cass exhaled. “She’s hurt. Exactly what Vivienne wanted.”“I know.” Dominic’s tone went cold. “And she’ll pay for it.”The silence that followed was heavy.“Do you want me to handle Vivienne?” Cass asked carefully.Dominic shook his head. “I’ll deal with Vivienne myself. Evelyn… is mine to protect.”Something in his voice made my stomach twist.Cass hesitated again. “Alpha… the cou

  • Flash Marriage with the Homeless Alpha   Chapter 57: I Want A Divorce

    Dominic’s POV“Dominic, stop moving,” Evelyn said, pressing her hand to my forehead.“I’m fine,” I muttered. The IV tugged at my arm, proving otherwise.“You nearly collapsed. Sit still.”I should’ve argued, but I thought better of it. She adjusted the blanket, smoothed the line, fussed in small ways that made me feel good.I almost felt grateful for the food poisoning. It forced me to stay still long enough for her to sit here, to talk to me again after the silence of that phone call and her business trip. If I hadn’t ended up in this bed, maybe we’d still be drifting apart.“Don’t look at me like that,” she said, catching me staring.“Like what?”“Like I’m amusing you.”How could I tell her that I just liked that she was here?By the next evening, I was on my feet. Evelyn wanted me to rest, but duty called. A banquet waited.“You shouldn’t go,” she said.“I’ll keep it short,” I promised.That was my mistake.The hall glittered under chandeliers, heavy with perfume and laughter. I st

  • Flash Marriage with the Homeless Alpha   Chapter 56: An Apology Is Enough

    Evelyn’s POVBefore I could make sense of it, Harrison’s father stood before me, his tone surprisingly respectful. “Miss Evelyn, I owe you an apology on behalf of my son. He acted without honor. Please, forgive his mistakes.”As I was trying to process his words, he opened a velvet box. Inside lay a necklace, gleaming under the light.“This is just a token of my sincerity. Please accept it.”The room went quiet, and every eye was on me. My heart thudded, but I managed a polite smile. “Thank you, but I can’t accept this. An apology is enough.”A sharp intake of breath came from my left. Amanda stepped forward quickly, smiling too sweetly. “Alpha, you’re far too generous,” she gushed. “Evelyn doesn’t understand the value and honor of such a gift. Not everyone is worthy of such kindness.”Her eyes darted to me, daring me to protest. Harrison’s father, however, barely spared her a glance. He snapped the box shut and turned back to me with a respectful nod. “No matter. The offer stands, s

  • Flash Marriage with the Homeless Alpha   Chapter 55: Don't

    Evelyn's POV His voice poured through the speaker, low and velvet, curling around me like smoke. Every word seemed to sink straight into my chest, making my pulse stutter.“Evie…” The way he said my name was dangerous, like a warning and a caress all at once.I swallowed, deciding to push him just a little further. “I was just… asking what people thought of it. Maybe I’ll send this picture to someone else, see what they—”“Don’t,” he cut in, sharp and commanding. The weight in his tone made my knees go weak even though we weren’t in the same room. “You don’t ever send something like that to another man. Not ever.”The edge of possessiveness in his voice sent a thrill down my spine. He was jealous. I could feel it. And instead of scaring me, it filled me with a secret, bubbling happiness.I bit my lip, smiling despite myself. “You sound like you mean it.”“I do.” His breath came rougher now, his voice dropping lower. “That picture is mine. You’re mine. If you want opinions, you come t
