Evan's POV

My chest rose and fell faster, not from the run, but from a realization that came too late and struck far too hard.

Viola.

Her name felt like a direct blow to my head.

All the pieces that had felt wrong since this afternoon suddenly fell into place. The pressure in my chest. Jacob’s unnatural restlessness. Ethanis crying without any clear reason. The faint scent seemed to call to me without a sound, stirring my deepest instincts.

She has been here all this time.

So close.

  • One Night with The Alpha's Twin    Chapter 40

    Evan's POV My chest rose and fell faster, not from the run, but from a realization that came too late and struck far too hard.Viola.Her name felt like a direct blow to my head.All the pieces that had felt wrong since this afternoon suddenly fell into place. The pressure in my chest. Jacob’s unnatural restlessness. Ethanis crying without any clear reason. The faint scent seemed to call to me without a sound, stirring my deepest instincts.She has been here all this time.So close.While I was busy denying it, cutting off contact with my family, and insisting that I no longer cared. I buried her name, locked away every memory of her, and forced myself to believe it was all over.It was never over.I forced myself to focus. Emotions could follow. Regret could come later. The battlefield does not wait, and one small mistake could cost her her life.I studied the narrow gap between the rocks carefully. Eight Rogues. Two are guarding the northern side, one near a fallen tree, while the

  • One Night with The Alpha's Twin    39. Finally Found You

    Chapter 39Evan's POV I was still in my room when the voice entered my head without permission.“Evan.”The voice was heavy, deep, carrying authority without needing to rise. Alpha Aldric, my father, never changed. Even through telepathy, his presence felt as if he were standing right in front of me. As if Silvermoon Palace was still the center of the world, and every major decision had to pass through him.But beneath his voice, there was another presence. Softer. Finer. Laced with worry.Luna Elsa.My mother rarely spoke unless something was truly urgent. And they almost never called me together like this.That meant trouble.My hand paused at the button of my coat. The room suddenly felt smaller. The candle flame on the table flickered, its shadow dancing along the stone walls of my chamber in Nightclaw. I took a slow breath before reluctantly opening the mental link.“What is it?” I asked flatly.“Evan, listen to us,” my mother’s voice slipped in first. Warm, yet fragile. Too fra

  • One Night with The Alpha's Twin    38. Tragedy at the Bloodmoon Festival

    Chapter 38Viola's POV The scent of moon blood was already in the air even before the sky began to change color.It was not something an ordinary nose could detect. It did not come as fragrance or rot. It crept beneath the skin, slipped into the bones, and vibrated inside the blood. As a Moon Warden, I never mistook it. There has always been an ancient connection between me and the sky, between my pulse and the moon. And since this morning, that connection had felt different.My chest felt heavy.Every breath carried an old echo, like a call from somewhere impossibly far yet painfully close. My body reacted faster than my thoughts. My fingers trembled slightly. My hearing sharpened. The energy around me felt denser, as if the air itself had grown tense.The Bloodmoon was almost here.I stood on the inner stone balcony of the castle, my fingers resting against the cold railing damp with evening dew. From here I could see the main courtyard of Nightclaw growing busy. Warriors moved in

  • One Night with The Alpha's Twin    37. The Horse Keeper

    Chapter 37Evan's POV Night in Nightclaw is never truly silent. Not an empty, lifeless silence, but one that feels alive. A silence that breathes. As if the castle’s stone walls, the ancient trees surrounding it, even the ground beneath my feet can hear every step and watch every breath I take.I lie on my back on the narrow bed in my small room near the eastern stables. The old wooden ceiling stretches above me, darkened by age. Thin cracks run across it, faintly illuminated by moonlight slipping through the small window at the side of the room.One arm covers my eyes.But my mind remains wide awake.The scent of dry hay, horse sweat, aged wood, and damp stone still clings to my clothes and skin. Usually, that smell calms me. It is part of my disguise. A reminder of my role as nothing more than a stable hand, a man without rank, without threat.But tonight, nothing feels calming.What unsettles me is not the smell. Not the sounds. Not the shifting shadows outside the window.It is t

  • One Night with The Alpha's Twin    36. Invisible Bond

    Chapter 36Viola's POV Ethan’s cries in the garden finally faded, but the unease in my chest only grew stronger.I stood behind the thin curtain of the garden hall, my heart beating faster than it should. My arms still felt empty. Just minutes ago, I had been the one holding him. The warmth of his small body seemed to linger against my skin, like a memory that refused to fade. Now Ethan rested in another man’s arms. A stranger who had only been working in the royal stables for a few days.Jack. That was what the omegas called him.From where I stood, I could see his broad, straight back. He was tall and solidly built, even by Nightclaw standards. His shoulders were strong, his arms defined by hard labor. His skin was darker from the sun, contrasting with his simple, slightly worn work clothes. His beard was thick and not carefully trimmed, like a man who cared more about his duties than his appearance. The faint scent of hay and earth still clung to him.There was nothing about him t

  • One Night with The Alpha's Twin    35. Evan and Ethan

    Chapter 35POV EvanThe moment the baby settled into my arms, the world seemed to narrow.The grand hall of Nightclaw was still packed. Torches mounted along the stone walls burned brightly, their flames swaying in the draft from the towering doors. Shadows stretched and shrank across the high ceiling, shifting with every movement of the crowd. Pack members stood close together in a tight circle around me. Some held their breath. Others whispered softly, trying to guess what was happening.But all of it slowly faded.The murmurs, the scrape of boots against stone, the faint clink of weapons brushing by accident, even the crackling fire began to sound distant. It felt as if I stood in a separate space, just me and the small child in my arms.All that remained was the warmth of his tiny body and the sudden instability of my own heartbeat.His name was Ethan.The name surfaced in my mind without introduction. No one told me. No one whispered it. It was simply there, as if it had been wai
