Heartbroken by her boyfriend’s betrayal, Evelyn Campbell was forced to sell her virginity to pay for her father’s medical bills, which led to an unplanned pregnancy. Five years later, the quest to provide for her son, Eddie, brought her back to her ex-boss, President Zuriel Scott, whose werewolf identity was concealed from the whole world. Her job of acting as President’s fake girlfriend was a trap, and she stepped into this silk web of supernatural world for only one thing, “I want to live with you, mommy.” The issue of his unknown paternity was destroying Eddie’s life. So, Evelyn trusted Zuriel as a father for her son’s future, who promised a lifelong companionship through mate-bond. But how did she get involved in the revenge story of bloodthirsty Alpha Zuriel? And what about that stranger from one-night stand, who came back to claim his right to his son? Hatred, revenge, betrayal: an emotional tale where love conquers all…
もっと見るEvelyn’s P.O.V.
“Are you interested in sleeping with a man for one million dollars?” A beautiful girl in a tight red gown was standing beside me confidently, her ocean blue eyes had a hint of curiosity in them. That beauty casually circled me, observing my body keenly. “You are a virgin. I am giving you a good deal.” The hint of amusement in her tone set me on fire, I screamed uncontrollably. “Are you out of your mind? What kind of question is this?” My query in response made her chuckle, she clicked her tongue. “I am a business lady, offering you a profitable deal. Don’t you wish to earn money?” After working as a secretary in the business sector, I was certain of the fact that no business executive would offer such a proposal to anyone. And we were in the public bathroom, right next to an energetic motorbike’s racing arena. Was she nuts? I was indeed a virgin, saving myself for my boyfriend. We had promised to consummate our relationship on our wedding night. But having tons of money didn’t mean that one could brazenly ask me to sell my body. I had enough self-respect to earn the money I needed. My firm resolve burst her into a fit of melodious, she flicked her hair and said, “Call me when you are ready. I need a virgin as soon as possible.” She slipped her visiting card into my jeans pocket and walked out of the bathroom, sashaying her hips. I hardly suppressed the urge to kick her perfectly round ass and cursed inwardly. “I will never see you again. Go to hell!” Breathing heavily, I was about to throw that card away when my cell phone rang, diverting my attention. My boss’s number flashing on the screen dried the blood coursing through my veins. Shoot! I picked the call and ran outside, apologizing sincerely. My twenty-minute bathroom break was bound to get a furious reaction from my boss as he scolded me. “Is this my duty to remind you of your work, Evelyn? Where are you?” Within minutes, I reached the racer’s locker room and faced my pissed off boss. President Zuriel Scott showed me his watch and said. “This is an ancient device called a wristwatch. You need to have one if you wish to continue working in Scott’s industries.” He compared me with his efficient manager, Mr. Bruce, lecturing me on the topic of the importance of time. I was praying in my heart for a miracle when an announcement saved me like the unsung hero. “The race is about to start. Please take your spots, participants.” This help from heaven ended the lecture and I dealt with the paperwork of the race. Joining the audience to cheer for my boss was also a part of my responsibilities. President Scott was a cold and commanding CEO, one of the youngest businessmen in the community. Motorbike racing was his hobby no one was aware of. People in his game circle knew him of the name “Silver Moon”, as he ruled the racing arena with his matchless talent every time. Tonight’s result was going to be the same as usual. After the gunshot, all eyes were glued on the superfast bikes, competing against each other in a nail-biting race. They clapped and cheered for their favorite contestant. But my boss didn’t let anyone cross him. President Scott won the competition with the difference of some seconds, asserting his dominance over the racers. The crowd went crazy as the host announced. “Silver Moon. First Crimson Warrior. Second Knight Rider. Third” The news of my boss’s victory relieved my worry, giving me the hope that my boss wouldn’t deduct my overtime payment because of an earlier mistake. I was organizing the file work for the prize money when he met me outside the venue’s building. “Is it done?” President Scott’s frosty voice sent shivers down my spine. I stuttered, “I-It’s almost done, President.” “Oh, come on, Zuriel. Why are you scaring her?” My boss’s best friend, Mr. Aaron appeared before my sight all of a sudden. He spoke in a meaningful tone. “Are you angry that your secretary doesn’t cheer for you like mine, Zuriel? All you have to do is ask. Evelyn will do everything for you.” My gaze traveled from his toothy smile to the half-naked beauty in his arm. Aaron’s assistant was clung to his chest like his girlfriend. The suggestive wiggle of his brows clenched my stomach, it was really out of my mind that why everyone was addressing me as a bottom lady tonight. And like it wasn’t enough, President Scott questioned me. “Evelyn, would you cheer for me like Aaron’s assistant?” What? I always wondered how President Scott became friends with a playboy like Aaron. But tonight, his query gave me the answer. I gawked at him in disbelief. It was my first job after completing my degree and due to my financial conditions, I needed it badly. My one wrong answer could snatch the only stable way of earning from me. Dreading his reaction, I tried to read my boss’s mind through his expressionless face and spoke hesitantly. “It’s not necessary to wear revealing clothes to show support. I can work hard to serve the Scott industries.” President Scott’s face didn’t change an inch to give me a clue about his reaction. My heart was drumming in my ears as he raised his brow and spoke, “At least, Bruce has hired some sensible workers in the office.” Phew! A heavy weight lifted off my chest as President Scott handed me a white envelope and said. “Although you tried your best to ruin my night, I won’t cut your pay. Work hard!” Five hundred dollars bills in the envelope soared my heart high in the sky, evaporating my worry in thin air. I was putting them in my bag when President Scott glared at his buddy. “Not every girl believes in earning quick bucks, Aaron. Mind it!” Not accepting his defeat, Aaron blamed it all on my boss. His nervous chuckle resounded in my ears. “Silly me! How can I forget that you have hired faithful puppies like you in your company? My bad!” Well, it was a fact that President Scott was deeply in love with his fiancé, who was studying abroad. He never laid his eyes on any other woman after his engagement. His loyalty for his soon-to-be wife was commendable, but it broke many hearts. My devilishly handsome boss was the most eligible bachelor in town. Anyway, I shuddered and came out to look for taxi, swearing to leave this demanding job as soon as I fulfilled my dreams. Working late nights weren’t safe for any girl nowadays. Waiting for the online cab, I was scrolling the posts on the social media when a notification popped on my screen. I gaped to read the message. “Come home, Eve. We are ruined!”Evelyn’s P.O.V.Three months later…“I, huntress Evelyn Campbell, accept you, Alpha Zuriel Scott as my soulmate!”These words completely changed the direction of my life that night, and clarified all the haze of uncertainty. My dad had informed me about his decision through a link. I was glad that Zuriel was able to secure a place in his heart.My marking also replied Walter, who left his mission and came to Zellburry pack for rescue. I couldn’t see in his eyes due to baseless guilt, and he also left the Hunter’s pack with Bex for good.Right after lady Stella’s arrest, Zuriel left all responsibilities for dad and Aaron, and booked a three months’ vacation for us. At first, I was perplexed by the idea of leaving everything behind for an outing, but the vigor of my first heat explained his hastiness. Thanks to Ivy's presence, I was able to manage my time with Eddie; otherwise, ignoring my own son for carnal desires would be disastrous. Yes, sex.With that mark of my ring carved on his
Zuriel’s P.O.V.Lady Stella’s words came out in utter disbelief, she literally lost her mind when Evelyn raised her hand.“Are you talking about this ring?”She chuckled, her blazing eyes were shooting daggers at that criminal. “You think that I am a stupid to wear my original ring in this pack? Obviously not. I was warned to take care of my possession.Now, I am happy that a fake copy has fooled a brainless woman like you.”I stepped out of the cage, and stretched my muscles, Aaron’s cold figure crushed me into a hug.“Wolfie!”He wrapped his arms around my shoulders and pointed.“Look there!”My pack mates were finally free, they knelt down and bared their necks in submission. “Only you are our Alpha, Alpha Zuriel Scott!”I noted it in my mind to order a psych consult for my pack mates after dealing with this hornet’s nest, as the only mentally questionable people could choose an Alpha like me. Now my heart was at ease to see the enemy’s warriors arrested by the Hunters, while so
Zuriel’s P.O.V.My heart was thundering against my rib cage while anticipating the worst possible outcome, but the silence followed by my Alpha command baffled me. Bruce, my only close friend in the business circle, puffed his chest with pride and said,“Don’t think about some rescue from your huntress soulmate, Zuriel.Mom took care of her beforehand.”Lady Stella, booming with delight of his son’s epic performance, smiled brightly, as if she had conquered the whole world. She opened her clutch, showed me Evelyn’s silver ring, and then wore it to flex her fake authority.“I knew that you would try to threaten me with Evelyn’s power. That’s why my daughter Ivy has poisoned her.We couldn’t arrange a fitting poison to kill her quickly, so she has some hours left before a final goodbye.”The harshness of her tone pierced through my soul. The anger took the place of helplessness to drive me crazy as soon as the shock dissipated.“You have assassinated your brothers without getting suspe
Zuriel’s P.O.V.My eyes wandered from one corner of a street to another, the absence of the blood inside the pack was a sign of relief. It could only mean that the intruders hadn’t started massive killing. So this gathering must be a formal ceremony for introduction. I removed my coat and undid the buttons for any one-on-one combat. That was my pack, and it was my responsibility to protect it. The idea of failure was already dampening my soul. “They must be rogues, Zuriel! Sneaky bastards!”Zev’s reminder hinted towards Gamma Jason’s reports, a part of my soul was hopeful to strike a deal with the attackers.My pack’s finance was solely in my hand, the duty of taking care of the entire population wouldn’t be in the favor of homeless rogues. Perhaps, they would agree to leaving in exchange for a hefty amount of money.With these thoughts swirling in my mind, I carefully approached my pack’s ground, a familiar voice wrinkled my forehead in surprise. “It’s time to get rid of the futur
Zuriel’s P.O.V.When Evelyn mentioned a deal to revive our former relationship, I was over the moon, soaring high in the sky.You can imagine whatever scenario you like for being insanely excited as my heart threatened to tear my rib cage, and danced in the symphony of love. I left my pack that night and went on the new mission given by my Luna, disregarding my Pack’s condition. As Gamma Jason, who had been promoted to the Beta position, opposed my sudden decision.“After Henry’s death, unusual movements of rogues were noticed in different parts of our Werewolf Kingdom.They seemed to be working on a dirty agenda, you should stay here and guide us for a strong security system.”I turned deaf ears to his warning, and ordered him in my Alpha command.“We have a flawless defense system in the whole Kingdom. I trust in your abilities, and now Beta Bruce is also with you.All of you devise plans for patrolling teams, and arrange for food and fuel supply in case of any war.Keep me updated
Evelyn’s P.O.V.“A sister?”I was taken aback by this sudden onslaught hurled on me, but Eddie’s question gave me enough courage to discuss Walter’s issue with him.“A newborn sister would need extra care, and you’ll have to wait before she finally becomes able to play with you.What about Bex as your permanent sister? We can be a family with uncle Walter and his daughter.”My cautious approach was difficult to comprehend for Eddie, he knitted his brow.“Uncle Walter is your friend. How can we be family, mommy?”Why was this challenging to explain normal things to a child? I sighed and fiddled with my sleeves, avoiding eye-contact with my own child.“Uncle Walter wants to be my husband, then Bex and you’ll be brother-sister.”“No!”Eddie gasped, not believing his supernatural hearing. The mobile phone from his hand landed on the bed, he narrowed his eyes. “Are you divorcing my daddy? But it’s impossible, mommy.”His firm belief shook my confidence, I calmed my racing heart and asked.
