Cheyne gathered all maids and gardeners to question them about Eva. He was sure someone had backed her up to run away from the house secretly. Hence, no one admitted to seeing Eva leave the house. When Cheyne counted back all the working maids, he was missing someone."Where's Joyce?" Cheyne questioned one of the female maids coldly. The maid was scared to face cold, so Cheyne interrogated her. Her co-worker Joyce asked her to clean up the remaining dinner plates despite her responsibility to look after Cody."I'm sorry, sir. I don't know where she is," answered the maid fearfully."Aren't you the one who's supposed to be looking after Cody?" This time, it was Bryan who questioned. The maid grew paler with fear and trembling. She nodded. Her eyes almost shed tears."I was looking after Young Master Cody, but Joyce asked me to go to the kitchen to clean up the rest of the dinner plates. I don't know what happened after that." The maid shakily confessed to Cheyne and Bryan.Cheyne glare
Eva chose to give in. She finally followed Jasper Kent to come home with him. After the severe raid on Xander's mansion, Jasper moved his residence. He chose to lay back so Gabriel could not detect. He acknowledged that Gabriel would chase Eva because she was his mate."Where are we?" Eva asked as she got out of the car. She was carrying Cody. Cody had fallen asleep eventually. During the long journey from the restaurant to a stunning place, Cody was so tired then slept in her arms. It is quite a long journey."It's my house," Jasper answered briefly. He turned to Eva and then returned to the front of the house. The night breeze slightly caressed Eva and Jasper's hair. It was late at night, and she was exhausted."We'd better go inside. It's freezing at night," Jasper asked Eva again to come with him. Eva took a deep sigh and walked after Jasper. Jasper's men also made sure Eva went inside without any resistance.When Eva walks in, Jasper offers his help. Even though he was angry with
"Be patient, Alpha. We will surely find Miss Alexander," said Bryan, trying to calm Gabriel. Gabriel recently learned that one of his house's maids is a spy under Jasper Kent and Levantine's pack. The spy also took Eva and Cody to run away in the middle of the night."I cannot get rest before killing that traitor, Bryan!" Gabriel growled loudly. Cheyne forbade him from leaving the room because he was the one who found the maid."I'm sure that Beta Cheyne will bring good news to us. We will soon find out her location and immediately pick Ms. Alexander up." Bryan reassured Gabriel as best he could."What about the house? Eva's old house. Doesn't Kent also live next door?" Gabriel asked, still curious. Bryan shook his head."I sent two Sigmas over there, and he sold the house. Nobodies there," Bryan answered, still with a flat expression. Gabriel became increasingly worried. He was angry but also upset at the same time.Since finding his Luna, Gabriel has changed a lot. He grew more sens
Gabriel Xander comes to Jasper Kent's mansion to confront him now. The Levantine heavily guarded it, as he had predicted. The house was where the Levantine pack had been, and Gabriel boldly engaged them. He didn't care if there was a commotion and fighting like before. Unfortunately, Jasper was not in the house."No one allowed to come!" said Everest, who looked after the house. Gabriel did not take it—he straight-faced Everest, who was slightly shorter than him in height."I don't think twice to crush your skull if you don't move." Gabriel threatened with a growl. His eyes were sharp and overpowering. Some of the Levantine wolves looked doubtful and daunted by Gabriel's attitude. Gabriel is famous for his extraordinary strength. He is one of the most robust wolves of the famous Xander clan."You're in our place, Xander. I'm not afraid of you," Everest challenged with his arrogance. Gabriel, provoked by rage. He glared and grabbed Everest's jaw with a grab. Everest responded quickly b
"He admitted where Jasper Kent was," Gabriel said in a low, husky voice like a whisper. Cheyne's brow furrowed in astonishment. He got closer and then shook his head at Gabriel."Easy as that? A Beta will not betray his Alpha unless he," Cheyne paused as Gabriel stared unblinkingly at him. What both of them thought was the same thing. Gabriel and Cheyne shared the same feelings and thoughts for years. The way Gabriel made his decision to call Cheyne his beta was something he cherished every day, although Cheyne was not pure royal blood.Bryan Hunter was alongside, listening and watching them. He stared astonishingly at Cheyne and Gabriel, facing each other alternately. There was something that stunned Bryan for a long time. The bond between Gabriel and Cheyne, as Alpha and Beta, is powerful. Cheyne comprehended how Gabriel thought and wanted. Apart from that, Gabriel only made decisions after telling Cheyne and asking for his opinion."There are two possibilities, Cheyne," Gabriel sai
Eva was staring at Jasper, perplexed. He was talking about making friends with Cody as if he had never done something that scared her son so much. However, Eva didn't show her emotion towards his act. Eva maintained a low profile, allowing him to interact as amicably as they had. Jasper also stares at Eva. He recognized somehow that Eva didn't like the way he spoke. She could have reacted more nicely."You must be angry at me." Jasper spoke, then chuckled."Stay away from my son." Eva warned unavailingly. Jasper raised his chin, then pursed his lips, making a small gesture of nodding."I don't hurt Cody." Jasper replied. Eva rolled her eyes at him, which made Jasper hold his smile behind his lips."All I did last night was to protect you.""How could you say that? You hurt both me and Cody. Now you felt remorse!""I don't feel remorse. You are the woman that I love, Eva. I want to save you from someone who doesn't belong to you." Jasper responds with a tone that silences Eva. Eva's he
Eva gazed up into Jasper's eyes unblinkingly. She tried to absorb every detail he uttered just now. Although unclear, Eva's mind was actively working to distance itself from Gabriel. Eva was so scared when she found out that Gabriel was not a human like her. What would happen to her in the future if they kept bonding with each other? Moreover, Cody would take it as a bitter fact of his life."Are you okay?" When Eva lowered her eyes, Jasper asked. She looked so anxious. Eva shook her head. Of course, she was so scared. Jasper didn't take it as pity. He even provoked her to let go of Gabriel."You should do that soon, Eva. Do not take so much time to think." Eva shook her head again. She even couldn't cope with these situations. Jasper frowned and almost lost his tolerance. Eva appears to be highly sceptical about anything about Gabriel."I need time," Eva told him in her mind."For what? Are you waiting until he slaughters you?" Eva's eyes turned bigger.
"You cannot lead a war, Gabriel. You have created enough chaos by wandering for a hundred years to quest your Luna. Now that you said you found one, she's kidnapped. How hilarious it is to start a war." Brandt mockingly quipped Gabriel, tensing the air. Bernard sighed and then stood to approach them both."It is not funny. She is my queen. It means that you must respect her!" Gabriel replied more sarcastically, annoying."She's not considered as queen unless we crown her," Brandt began to argue fiercely."What!?" Gabriel gritted his rage."Stop it, you two!" Bernard took the dispute in the middle. He spoke firmly towards Gabriel and Brandt. Gabriel scoffed annoyingly, then walked back to his chair to sit. Bernard turned to Brandt until he got back to his seat."Can I speak now?" Bernard spoke sarcastically."I'm the leader of the elder of the Black Canis pack, yet both of you disrespect me," said Bernard with his low, wise tone. Both Gabriel
