I was utterly shocked. I couldn't believe what just happened to me. This new attitude of Zayn was becoming unacceptable to me. I started feeling more and more annoyed with his behavior lately. Zayn had always been a little reckless and impulsive, but recently it seemed like he was actively trying to push my buttons, all the fucking time. It was starting to wear on me, and I knew that I needed to confront Zayn about it before it escalated into something worse. I didn't want to be the one to kill my best friend – I don't even know what my father was planning on doing to him.The reason why my hands are tied is that Zayn is like a brother to me. We had been friends since we were kids, and we had been through so much together – he's always had my back. But ever since Eva, ever since Zayn had started having feelings for Eva, he had become more and more daring, more willing to take risks and do things that I considered as stupid or dangerous. I knew that Zayn had developed feelings for Eva,

ZAYN'S POVAs the moon hung high in the starry sky, I tiptoed away from Eva, leaving her to rest in her cocoon of blankets. But as I made my way through the stillness of the night, a voice within me growled and snarled like a restless wolf, chastising me for my disobedience. I clenched my jaw as I felt the anger and frustration boil within me – my wolf wasn't happy with me.The night was quiet, and the air was heavy with the weight of my thoughts. I walked with my head down, lost in a maelstrom of emotions as my wolf relentlessly nagged me for my recent display of magic. I gritted my teeth and my steps grew more deliberate as my wolf's constant chatter became an unbearable noise.Despite my inner turmoil, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement at the thought of using my magic once again. It had been so long since I last wielded it, and the mere thought of it sent a thrill down my spine. But at the same time, I knew that I wasn't supposed to be using my magic. The rules were cl

EVA'S POV"Zayn, wait!! Please stop!" I shouted, I saw him bolt out of the room and my body was pushed to follow him, almost like force compelled me to. "Zayn!" I called after him, I had left Adrian in the room and he was bleeding profusely but Zayn didn't listen to me, it was like I wasn't even speaking.I pushed my body faster and I almost tripped, I took a few turns around the pack house – he had shown me turns I could take so I could get to places quicker and after the last turn, I was in front of him and my eyes were teary."Zayn, you can't go!" I begged him but his eyes widened in horror and his hands were covered in Adrian's blood. He was trying to say something but he looked like he was having an internal conflict so I decided to take steps closer to him, "it was just an accident, Adrian is fine I promise." I was about to cry, his eyes shook in horror and he was finally able to speak."Stay away from me! Not a foot closer Eva!" He warned me and I froze in my tracks, he was bre

EVA'S POVI never thought that being locked in a dark room would be so unbearable. It's been days since I had seen the light of day or heard a human voice that wasn't my own. I had been surviving on a meager amount of food and water which was barely enough to keep me alive. But the worst part of it all was the loneliness. The silence in the room was deafening, and it drove me insane.I kept thinking about Zayn. He was the only one who could make me feel less alone. He was my happiness, my support, my everything and I missed him dearly. I don't know why he ran away and left me here with Adrian. I begged and pleaded with him not to but he didn't listen, he pushed me away like I meant nothing to him and ran off like a scared little boy.Every night, I dreamt about Zayn. I see him in my dreams, standing in the doorway, with his arms outstretched, ready to rescue me from this hellhole. But every morning, I wake up to the same darkness and the same emptiness. The hope that he'll come back w

ZAYN'S POVAs I sat beside Zero, basking in the warmth of her presence, I couldn't help but feel grateful for the bond that had developed between us in such a short time. It had been weeks since she brought me to her pack, and in that time, we had become the best of friends. But I hadn't been able to tell her my whole story. I wanted to tell her everything, I wanted her to get to know me well because I knew almost everything about her but she knew almost nothing about me. She had become my best friend so I shouldn't keep anything from her.Taking a deep breath, I turned to Zero and mustered up the courage to finally share my whole story. "Zero, there's something I need to tell you," I began, my voice shaking slightly. "It's about my life and my Luna, Eva."Zero's ears perked up, and she turned to face me fully. "What about her?" she asked softly."I'm in love with her and she's my mate," I admitted, feeling a weight lift off my chest. "But she belongs to someone else, someone who's li
