Chaos's POV."What's wrong with her? Why didn't she wake up?" I asked impatiently as the head healer of the pack finished her examination."I... I don't know, alpha... She... It seems like she's in a coma..." She muttered uncertainly."What exactly do you mean by that?! She was clearly in a good health an hour ago!! What could possibly go wrong for her to fell into a coma all of a sudden?" I questioned both from her and myself while running my fingers through my already messed up hair.It was just a hug for goddess's sake! And it wasn't even my idea!!So, how could something like this happen? Could it be that it triggered some bad memories of her past?"Thea... Could- Could something painful from past trigger this kind of reaction?" "Could be... Why did you ask something like that, alpha?""She was tortured in her pack and used as a slave since she was little...""Oh, then it's totally possible that she would suffer from chronic pain, post-traumatic stress disorder or depression an
Eva's POV .I don't know how long I've been unconscious but when I my senses wake up, the first thing that it registered was the thick citruses scent mixed with a faded earthy one. And without a second guess I recognized that citruses scent is my brother's. But the earthy scent... Whose scent was that?"Eva... are you awake? Can you hear me?" Aziel's voice whispered near my ear."Mmh..." As I try to speak, my dried throat started aching painfully, so I kept my mouth shut. And I didn't want to open my eyes either, because the light wherever I was in was way too overwhelming for me even with my eyes closed.So I just act blind and leaned for Aziel's support as he carefully helped me to get up."Here... Drink this." Aziel said pressing a cold glass onto my lips."It's just water..." When I hesitate to take a sip, he reassured quickly in a smiling tone as if he found it somewhat funny."What are you laughing at?! This light is too much for my eyes!!" I complained miserably as soon as my
Eva's POV."Mine!" As my mate's possessive voice rang from behind us, I grabbed Aziel's body for my dear life not wanting to deal with him right after I woke up."Don't come any closer!" Sensing my fear Aziel warned fiercely, covering my body more.But from the looks of it, it didn't reach that possessive wolf's ears. "Chaos!! You are scaring her, you mindless beast!!!" Aziel snapped, this time more louder than before.Fortunately, it somehow managed to gain his attention and his steps faltered as his possessive aura starts to fade away."You! Don't come near her!!" Scooping me in his arms, Aziel warned and started walking away."Wait!""Now what?!" Aziel snapped at him again, but instead of looking at him my mate stared right into my eyes and asked a question that I had no answers for."Eva... You... are you that unwilling to accept me, a heartless beast according to your knowledge as your mate?" As his words flew away with the soft breeze, I just stood still beside my brother unab
Eva's POV ."I thought the Silverdawn pack only exists in folklore and children's bedtime stories." After everyone was settled down in Alpha's office Ezra commented, starting the conversation.Even though it took some time to convince alpha Nightwalker, he finally agreed to free Anubis since both Aziel and I didn't want to leave his side. So now, here we are, packed in a huge yet typical alpha office waiting for Anubis to explain everything clearly."Now, it is... But sixteen years ago it wasn't. Back then, Silverdawn was a very prosperous pack and everyone lived their lives as happily as anyone could ever be. We had everything we needed even though we didn't interact with other packs and outsiders. On the other hand, no one knew about our existence for sure either. So, it's not surprising that outsiders have only heard about our village through those folklores." Anubis explained, caressing my hand softly. Since the moment we recognized each other, he always showed his affection tow
Chaos's POV."She lied!!" I growled out loud after she escaped with her two brothers, startling both my beta and gamma."Alpha?" Ezra called, his voice full of confusion."She lied to me about the mate bond!!!" "She...Eva is your mate?" Theo asked, throwing a look at Ezra."Apparently" "And you aren't sure?""Do I look like I'm sure? I somehow saw her original figure, the one that man mentioned earlier!! And when I asked her about that, she denied it again and again and again!!!" I snapped at Theo, annoyed with both his questioning and Eva's lying."Then why is she here? If she denied the bond-""I brought her here forcefully." I admitted, interrupting my gamma."That explains why Thea looked so mad ever since you called her to treat Eva." Ezra guessed, looking so smug about his discovery.Goddess, how I wished I could beat that look out of his face forever!! Unfortunately, he is my beta and is like a brother to me. So, I guess I can't do any permanent damage to him unless I could
Eva's POV ."NO!!!" I woke up with a start, screaming out of my lungs in raw fear and it probably might have awaken the whole house along with me."WHAT HAPPENED?!!" Without a second delay Anubis rushed into the room shouting, his voice laced with panic and worry."A- Anubis... Anubis..." I reached out, desperately calling his name."I'm here... I'm here. Everything will be okay. I got you..." He whispered into my ear, carefully embracing my sore body.I guess, I might have lost consciousness sometime around two to four AM and if I could, I would erase everything out of my mind without even leaving a single trace behind.But, unfortunately... I couldn't.The stinging pain at the base of my neck... the soreness between my legs... and the aching pain at my waist and back... Every single part of my body stood against me as witness for the things I had to endure throughout the night. Yet, I still didn't dare to admit that my own mate did that to me...It's okay for him to know nothing ab
Chaos's POV .The moment I opened my eyes, the first thing they caught was Eva's fragile body covered in hickeys and bruises all over and her facial features showed so much of distress that for a moment I even forgot how to breath in."What have we done, Eros?" I muttered slowly, totally disappointed in myself.If this is anything else, I would never waste my breath like this, guilt tripping my own self. But now... I can feel myself slowly giving in to the bond and I didn't wish to see her like this ever again.'She won't mind it. After all... we're mates, right?' 'Did she look like she wouldn't care?' I snapped at Eros, recalling the way she kept begging and pleading to stop until she couldn't anymore… 'If something bad happened because of this... I would never forgive you!''Look who's talking! You are the one who didn't want to have a mate in the first place!! So the way I deal with MY mate doesn't concern you!!!' Eros growled back no giving the slightest shit about my warning.
Eva's POV ."She should wake up anytime soon now. I felt her pulse shifting. Please stay calm for a little while, second alpha..." I heard an unfamiliar female voice saying, but I didn't found it in me to wake up that easily.There wasn't any pain or discomfort in my body but, I found it a challenge to open my eyes or even move a muscle. It was like I've been living in water and now my body couldn't adapt to the gravity and light on the land.How long have I been out exactly? "They why does she still look like this? What's going on with her? If anything bad happened to her I will-""I swear to the goddess, alpha... Lady Eva is totally fine. Because she was in a coma for so long, her body may have had difficulty adjusting to the surroundings quickly. We should give her body more time to adjust." The female- most probably a healer explained hurriedly, disturbing her 'second' alpha.What was that position? Second Alpha..? Could it be that...I inhaled the air deeply and carefully, payi
