EVELYN

What kind of meeting had that been? And why was everyone so fixated on John?

I was just about to slide into the back seat when Solomon opened the door for me. Before I could get in, Darwin stepped forward, his hand catching the edge of the door.

Solomon tensed, ready to shove him back, but I gave a quick shake of my head to stop him.

Darwin flashed a smug grin.

“What do you want?” I asked, crossing my arms and staring him down.

He clutched his chest dramatically, like he was in pain. “That girl, ma’am. You’ve no idea how much it hurts not seeing her for nearly five days now.”

My fingers twitched with the urge to slap him, but I settled for pressing a finger against his chest hard like that would change anything not knowing it would make him even more creepy.

“It’s her life,” I said coldly. “And this is where you back off.”

His smirk didn’t fade. “Or what?”

I let out a sharp scoff. “She’s a child, Darwin. Don’t you have any shame?”

Even as I spoke, I couldn’t figure out why I w

  • Rejected And Betrayed: Chasing My Luna Back.   183. Position — Luna.

    DIANE“Before you leave, won’t you have one last cup of tea with me?”The voice came from my left. I turned and saw him walking toward me, a smirk tugging at his lips. He slipped his hands into his pockets like he had all the time in the world.I let out a quiet sigh and dropped my luggage on the floor. I wasn’t in the mood for tea or anything, really. I just wanted to go, like they all seemed to want me to.But a few minutes later, we were sitting in the lounge, steaming cups between us. I could feel his eyes on me, watching too closely.“So, you’re just going to leave like that?” he asked, like I was making a selfish choice. Just like Mr. Charles, always assuming things are simple, like his son does.I looked down at my tea. “All the evidence points to me,” I said quietly. “It’s not like I have a choice.” “If Benjamin had taken that project, you wouldn’t be here stressing yourself,” he said, shaking his head like it was all so obvious.I scoffed, knowing exactly what he was implyin

  • Rejected And Betrayed: Chasing My Luna Back.   182. Very sensitive.

    EVEYLN"Why aren’t you saying anything, Alpha John?" one of the elders asked, narrowing his eyes. "You know this could spark a huge controversy if anyone from our pack sees this video or saw her at this place."John scoffed, then slowly raised the phone in his hand, studying the screen with a blank expression. My heart sank. The weight of the moment pressed down on me like a storm cloud. Just like that, my day was ruined—shattered beyond repair."Have you all even taken a moment to watch this properly?" John asked, his voice cold. "I’m honestly disappointed in every single one of you.""This is a very sensitive topic," another elder muttered. "And... It looks recent.""Of course it’s recent," Diane chimed in, arms folded smugly. "She was there just last month. I was trying to cover for her, actually."Wow. Listen to her,playing the hero now, like she hadn’t just thrown me under a bus in front of everyone.But something wasn’t adding up. How did she get that video?I was sure there wer

  • Rejected And Betrayed: Chasing My Luna Back.   181. Judging her.

    EVEYLN"Are you sure you want me to sign the papers?" she asked, one eyebrow arched as she looked at John.John scoffed, not even sparing her a glance. He leaned back in his seat, eyes distant, like her words weren’t worth his breath."If I sign them, your life will be chaos. Are you ready for that?"Von slammed his palms on the table, making the glasses rattle. "Are you seriously threatening the Alpha?" he growled. "It's good you're finally showing your true colors..."She didn’t flinch. Her eyes flicked to him with a cold edge. "John knows exactly what I mean. And you should probably keep your mouth shut."My jaw dropped. She just disrespected an elder like it was nothing. That wasn’t bold, it was reckless.A wave of gasps rolled through the hall. Von looked ready to explode, but the elder beside him laid a firm hand on his shoulder and pushed him gently back into his seat."So John, what do you think?" she asked, her gaze fixed on him.What’s her angle now? Does she have something

  • Rejected And Betrayed: Chasing My Luna Back.   180. Divorce papers.

    DIANE "I'm having second thoughts here. Are you sure she's going to get it?" I asked, my voice laced with doubt.I took a slow sip of my wine, the glass cool in my hand as I watched him glance at his watch."At least she still has time to change her mind," he muttered.I raised an eyebrow, then gave him a look. "No way you just said that," I said, rolling my eyes."It would ruin her," Benjamin said. "Everyone would be talking. She’d have to hide her face, unless she wants to be stoned in the streets."He added the last part with a sarcastic chuckle, but I didn’t laugh. I let out a quiet sigh, the weight in my chest still heavy. It didn’t feel like enough."I want more than that," I said, my tone tightening. "I want her to stay the hell away from John. And I want John to understand, he has no other choice but to be with me."Benjamin didn’t respond right away. Instead, he pulled out a file from one of the messy stacks on the table and placed it in front of me. Curious, I looked at it.

  • Rejected And Betrayed: Chasing My Luna Back.   179. Won't approve it.

    JOHN“I… I don’t know what you’re talking about.”“Sure,” he scoffed. “Go ahead and deny it. Then I’ll show Evelyn the proof, the paper you signed, promising you’d never cause trouble and that you’d always be on our side.”My hand hit the table hard. The loud crack surprised me. My heart raced, pounding like an alarm. Cold sweat broke out on my skin, even though it wasn’t cold.He was right. Damn, he was right.But that was back then. Before I really knew who Evelyn was. When I first heard a woman would lead the DeepBlue project, I laughed at the idea. I had no idea it was her until the Nightshade Pack’s 300th anniversary celebration. That’s when everything changed. Damn... why is it that just when things start going smoothly, something comes along to crush it?"So don’t even think about taking Diane off the throne," Lucas warned, voice cold. "With that evidence, I could ruin you for life. You’re not even worthy of my daughter. It was all just transactional and you know that."I clen

    JOHN"I don't know if I can still keep you as my driver," I said quietly, eyes fixed on Solomon, whose head hung low in shame.I shifted my gaze to the other side. "And I don't know if I can keep you as my..."I let out a long sigh looking at Andrew."...Beta.""I'll accept whatever punishment you give me," Andrew said firmly.I rolled my eyes. "You’ll be demoted to dungeon guard duty. I’ll start looking for a replacement. I was considering Solomon for Beta, but..."I shook my head, dismissing the thought. Not anymore.Turning away, I called out to one of my warriors coming inside the palace. "How's it going there?"Ezra looked up and gave a small smile. "Smoothly. I found out Carlo is staying at the Narco Pack. But don’t worry, I didn’t tell Giovanni I was watching Carlo."I stopped in my tracks, disbelief creeping into my voice. "What? What’s he doing there?"Ezra’s brow furrowed. "Not sure yet, but someone from that pack might be helping him."Ezra continued. "I overheard Alpha Rom
