Eve saw his lips had pressed together so hard that they looked white from the lack of blood. “Did you grow up here?” she asked, squeezing his arm. Arec nodded again, not taking his eyes from the house. “I left once I had the chance to do so and bought the house I’m living in,” he told her. He looked at her and smiled, saying, “Besides meeting you, that was the best thing that has happened in my life.”“Was it that bad?” Eve asked, frowning. Arec tore his eyes from the house and said, “It was, but since she’s still the pack leader, I couldn’t go far.” “Do you have to stay in town?” she asked. “Why couldn’t you move far away from her?” Arec pressed his lips together before answering. “Lycans are bound to their families,” he told her. “Even if we don’t get along, we have to stay together for the strength and saf
Once Bella had completed her makeup, Eve stared at herself in the mirror. “Is this really me?” she asked, staring at the beautiful woman in the reflection. Bella appeared over her shoulder and smiled, putting her hands on Eve’s shoulders. “It’s really you,” she said. Meeting Bella’s eyes in the mirror, Eve asked, “Will this make your mother approve of me?” Bella’s smile faded, and she said, “I’m not sure even this will make Mother approve of you, but don’t let that get you down. There’s not many people she does approve of.” Eve smiled wryly at Bella and said, “I get the feeling she approves of Sabrina.” Bella rolled her eyes and said, “Don’t even get me started on that woman!” “I take it you know her?” Eve asked. Grimacing, Bella nodded, saying, “Unfortunately, I’ve had the not-so-pleasurable experience of meeting her when Mother was trying to pawn her off on one of my brothers.” “She did what?” Eve asked, her eyes wide. “You mean she wasn’t just trying to get her together
“You should just tell Linda that you’ve got a family function with my family tomorrow night,” Arec said. Eve bit her lower lip as she looked at him before nodding and saying, “That makes sense.” She bent over her phone as she typed the message. Biting her lip as she waited for Linda to respond, she grinned in relief when she read her friend’s message. “She’s okay with waiting until next week,” she said. “Glad to hear,” Arec said. “I don’t want you to think you can’t keep up your friendships now that you’re a werewolf.” Eve sighed and said, “Well, it won’t be the same. How am I supposed to tell her I’m unavailable three nights out of the month?” “Maybe she won’t notice?” Bella said, shrugging with a hopeful look. Eve shook her head and said, “I think Linda’s a little smarter than that.” “I’m sure she is, but it’ll take her time to catch on,” Arec said. “By the time she does notice, maybe you’ll be able to tell her.” Eve’s mouth dropped open, and she blinked a few times bef
“What?” Arec asked, hurrying toward Eve and taking the paper out of her hand. He scanned it and looked at Michael. “Mother has issued an official invitation to Eve to come to the family compound,” he said, holding the paper up. Michael walked to his brother and took the paper from his hand to read it. Arec put his arm around Eve’s shoulder. Lowering the paper, Michael looked at them and asked, “What’s the plan?” “Go and meet your family,” Eve said. “I don’t think I have any other choice.” Arec shook his head and said, “I don’t think that’s a wise idea, Eve.” Eve took the paper back and skimmed it again. “It doesn’t look like I can get out of it, Arec,” she said, shaking her head. Arec strode toward her and took the paper out of her hand. Crumpling it in his fist, he said, “You do have a choice, Eve, regardless of what my mother thinks.” Eve shook her head and said, “I don’t want to cause any trouble between you and the rest of your family.” Arec laughed without mirth and
At the sound of Eve’s voice, the man on the other side of the room looked up. “Eve? Is that you?” he asked in a scratchy voice. Eve started toward him, but Arec touched her arm, causing her to stop and look at him with raised eyebrows. Arec shook his head and stepped in front of her. “Why did you turn Eve?” he asked, glaring at the other man. Craig turned his focus from Eve to Arec. His expression soured, and he snarled at Arec. “You!” he said, struggling to his feet. “Why couldn’t you have just left well enough alone? Why did you have to get in between us?” Arec snarled back at him and said, “You shouldn’t have changed her!” Craig sneered at him and said, “You should have minded your own business!” “Eve is my business!” Arec growled. Eve stepped in front of Arec, putting her hand on his chest. “Stop it,” she said, looking at Arec before turning toward Craig. Stepping toward him, she asked, “Why did you turn me, Craig?” “Because we’re meant to be together,” he said
Arec listened for any sign that Eve was rampaging as he walked to his room, but the hallway was silent except for his footsteps. He paused when he reached his door, listening for any sign of Eve inside. He heard a faint noise, then a scratching at the door. A faint whine from Eve on the other side of the door brought a smile to his lips, and he whispered, “I’ll be right in.” He opened the door and stepped into the bedroom. Eve leaped at him, licking his face. He laughed as he put his arms around her. “I missed you, too,” he said, nuzzling her fur. He glanced toward the window and added, “It’s almost moonset. I hope you’re ready to change back into your regular form.” She yipped, causing him to laugh. “I hope it’s not painful for you,” he said, walking toward the bed. Eve followed him and jumped on the bed. He sat beside her and leaned against the headboard. She rested her head against his stomach as he rubbed her ears. They remained that way until Eve shifted and whined.
Arec led Eve up the stairs to the kitchen, where Michael and Bella waited. Eve growled when she saw them, and Arec patted her head. “It’s okay, Eve,” he said. “It’s just my sister and brother. You know them.” Eve pressed against Arec’s leg but continued to growl at Michael and Bella. Arec looked at his siblings and said, “I’ll be right back.” Michael and Bella nodded in unison as they stared at Arec, who led Eve out of the kitchen. “We’ll see how you do in my room,” he told her as they mounted the stairs. “I’m hoping that you won’t tear it apart while I’m gone.” Eve just panted as she loped up the stairs beside him. She sniffed the air as they neared his room and ran to his door, scratching to get in. “I can tell you know which one is mine,” he said as he opened the door for her. She bounded inside, smelling everything as she explored the room. Arec grinned at her before shaking his head. “I’ll be back in a few,” he said. “Make yourself comfortable, and try not to des
Arec stopped in his tracks as the other man stood from his crouched position in front of the door. The other man grinned at him and asked, “You didn’t expect to see me here, now did you?” Looking at Arec before glancing at the werewolves, he added, “You can change back. They won’t attack you for now.” Arec hesitated as he looked at the werewolves surrounding the man. Then he grimaced and shifted back to his human form. “Hello, Samuel,” he said. “I should have suspected something like this, but I never thought it would be from my own family.” His brother chuckled and said, “You should have known better than to have gotten involved with a werewolf.” Arec raised an eyebrow and nodded toward the werewolf pack surrounding his brother. “You should talk,” he said, crossing his arms over his chest. The werewolves growled low in their throats, but Samuel growled back at them, causing them to quiet. “This is necessary to get your… girlfriend back with her own kind and for you to co
“The werewolves are back?” Bella asked, getting to her feet. “They are, and they brought reinforcements,” Michael said, looking grim. Arec put his fork down and got to his feet. “How many are there?” he asked. “More than last night,” Michael told him. Bella looked at Arec, chewing on her lower lip. “Do you think we can take them all?” she asked. Arec pressed his lips together and took a deep breath. “We have no choice,” he said. “Let’s go.” Michael and Bella hurried down the hallway as Arec walked to the door. Putting his hand on the door, he whispered, “I’ll be back soon.” He heard a whine in response and closed his eyes before removing his hand and hurrying after his siblings. Arec found Bella and Michael with Ray and Julia in the living room. “How many are there?” he asked. “It looks like at least twenty,” Ray said, frowning. Arec frowned and pursed his lips. Bella twisted her hands in front of her and asked, “Can we take that many?” “Of course, we ca
