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
Eva's POV ."It's so nice to finally be able to talk to you like this. Anubis told us a lot about you and Az... he seems so obsessed over you..." During the breakfast, the former alpha female of the Midnight pack said happily, trying to open me up more.Even though I felt grateful for her efforts, I kept my mouth shut because I wasn't still ready to trust strangers fully. But I admit that I liked the energy of Az's biological sister... "Mom... Stop sprouting nonsense!!" Aziel cried out loud, pouting hard like a spoiled little girl.I swear if he kept acting like that any longer, he would turn into a girl for real! Isn't there a wolf in his head to remind him to act like an 'alpha'? "That's not nonsense! You were so obsessed over her!! Otherwise why would you go all that trouble to adopt her into our family?" "MOM!!!" Unable to bare with his mother's slanders, he cried louder this time earning a warning growl from my 'overprotective' elder brother."Okay okay... Geeze... Kids these
Eva's POV ."D-do we have to buy all this?" I asked, reluctant to be a freeloader.I admit that I'm in need of decent clothes and I need to buy a dress for tomorrow too... But that doesn't mean that someone had to draw out a whole bank to do so."Of course we do." Dhalia replied, adding another bag to the dozen or so bags in Anubis's hands."But I... don't have money...""But I do." As soon as those words left my mouth, Anubis deadpanned, not leaving any room for me to argue."Fine. You still owe me sixteen years of spoiling anyway..." I gave in, muttering the last part under my breath."What did you say?" "Nothing." Avoiding my elder brother's accusing glare, I said hurriedly before Dhalia could drag me into another shop.It was really tiresome to go through a shopping trip with Dhalia but at the end of the day, she still managed to buy me everything I needed. And some things... Well... I didn't even know for myself that I needed those. But after lunch, I had no strength left in me
Eva's POV .Even though I already made up my mind, I failed to forget my mother's constant warnings about a certain alpha. But still... I believed what I'm doing is right and I didn't care how selfish that would make me in others' eyes. Yet, this ache..."Eva... you alright?" Dhalia's concerned voice rang out and I blinked few times, trying to gather my focus on her."I- yeah. I'm fine." I lied, not wanting to share my burdens with her."You look paler. I know it's your normal color but today... it looks paler than normal. You sure you are okay? Maybe you should rest more. It's just yesterday you woke up from a coma. So..." She ranted on, her hands nervously fidgeting with my hair."I'm fine. I promise. I'm just nervous. That's all." I reassured her but she didn't seem like she's convinced.But after some pondering, she just gave in and started applying her 'glamour' on me. And I should admit, her 'glamour' in styling is on a completely another level.Yes, it was tiresome. But I rea
Chaos's POV ."Alpha Nightwalker is speaking..." I answered the phone robotically, not paying attention to the caller ID."Today is Eva's birthday. I thought you would be interested in to know." When Aziel's emotionless voice came through, I sat up straight and I felt Eros perk up his ears to listen more."What?! Today?""Yes, today. If you want to come I'll inform the border patrollers to grant you entrance. If not, forget that I said anything. Bye.""Wait!" Before he could hang up I disturbed him in a hurry, but I had no idea about how to continue or what to ask and I think he guessed that too since he volunteered to reveal more information."The party will start at six in the evening and she'll be around there till nine or ten. If she's willing, you can talk to her there and I'll make sure that Anubis won't disturb you.""Thank you, Az. I'll leave right now.""I'm not doing this for you. It's for her. I just think that you being here would help her go through the shift without fee
