Evelyn’s povI sat in the gardens.Normally I came here for the breeze and the quiet, the flowers that made this place feel less like a random place and more like something that still belonged to me.But today?Today, it all looked dead.Not because it was, God no, the roses were blooming and the wind was gentle. But I didn’t feel anything. No peace, no calm, just this ache in my chest and this pounding in my head that wouldn’t stop.I wrapped my arms around myself. Maybe I could just sit here and disappear for a few minutes. Maybe if I closed my eyes hard enough, I’d wake up in Charming with the twins kicking or back at Redwood with Leo teasing me about my weird cravings.But that wasn’t happening.Then I heard footsteps.I didn’t even need to turn. I knew exactly who it was. That humming that followed was awfully familiar“You seem happy,” Raya’s voice came.I didn’t answer right away. I just exhaled and tilted my head back, eyes to the sky.“I don’t have time for this,” I finally m

Evelyn’s povOne minute I was standing. The next, I was on the floor, bleeding.I couldn’t even process it. My hands clutched my stomach, blood warm and sticky between my fingers. It wouldn’t stop. It wasn’t stopping.The pain… god, it burned. Like fire under my skin. Healing wasn't kicking in, why the hell wasn’t it kicking in?I looked up, trembling, breath ragged. And there she was.The girl.The one I saved.Still holding the knife like it was nothing. No remorse. No fear. Not even guilt in her eyes. Just… nothing.“I… I helped you,” I choked out, staring at her like she was some sick joke from the moon goddess herself. “Why…? Why are you doing this?”She tilted her head, gave me a half-smile.“Oh, I’m just doing what I was paid to do,” she said, like we were discussing the damn weather.I blinked. “Paid to…?”She stepped forward, slowly, like she had all the time in the world. “Someone wants you dead,” she said casually, dragging the blade across her own palm just for the hell of

Evelyn’s povThe room was quiet again, just the soft beeping from the monitor and the low hum of something mechanical. I stared at the IV tube, the clear liquid dripping into my veins, and for a moment, I forgot Tyler was still sitting there.Then he moved, sat down like he finally decided to stay.I didn't look at him,i didn’t want to break the silence first. Not this time.He opened his mouth once, then stopped, again.Like the words were stuck in his throat.Then finally, he said, “Do you… do you know why we can’t stand each other?”I turned my head toward him.Seriously?“I just told you,” I said, confused. “It was a girl. You both fell for the same girl, and… she died.”Tyler shook his head slowly. “No. It wasn’t that simple.”He paused. His voice was low now.“It was how she died.”That made me go still.My heart thudded once, loud enough for me to feel it in my ears.“What do you mean?” I asked.He rubbed his palms together like he was trying to warm them up or rub something of

Evelyn’s POVThey found her.That girl. The one who stabbed me.Even just thinking about it made my stomach twist, not from pain this time, but something uglier, betrayal? Anger? I didn’t even know her name, and yet she held a knife to my stomach like I meant nothing.I turned slowly to Marc, who was still standing at the door like a goddamn statue.“Where?” I asked. My voice came out dry, cracked, but loud enough. “Where did they find her?”He didn’t say a word.I narrowed my eyes. “Why are you just standing there? Say something, anything.”Still, nothing.I pushed myself up slightly from the bed, wincing as a tug of pain shot up my side. But I needed to see his face properl, I needed to know what the hell he was thinking.He just stood there, watching me like I was some kind of puzzle he was trying to figure out, then he chuckled.I blinked. “What the hell is so funny?”“Just…” He shrugged. “Look at the irony. The great Evelyn Williams. Two Alphas ready to kill each other over you…

Evelyn’s POVThe morning felt… heavy.I blinked up at the ceiling, my body sore and too damn tired to move. My side ached where I'd been stabbed, and my head felt like it had gone through a blender, I didn’t want to think about yesterday, but the flashes kept coming anyway, I groaned, forcing myself up, that’s when I noticed it, that scent.It was familiar and comforting. A little citrus, a little pinewood. My breath hitched.What the hell?I turned quickly, and my eyes landed on him, Leo.Sitting casually in a chair near the window like he hadn’t been gone for days, weeks even. Like he hadn’t left me here with crazy people, and murder attempts.“Leo?” I blinked, rubbing my eyes just to be sure I wasn’t imagining things.He chuckled, his arms crossed. “Yeah, I’m real. You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”“Shut up,” I whispered, pushing off the bed. I ran to him, flinging my arms around his neck. “Oh my God, Leo.”He held me tightly, it was solid, warm and very real.When we finally pu

Christian Blackwood's POVThe sun was doing its best to fry the whole damn compound. I was sitting outside the mansion, legs crossed, arms thrown over the backrest of the sofa.Bluestone had a certain charm. Annoyingly clean brickwork, manicured hedges, flowers that probably cost someone’s paycheck. Tyler might be a hot-headed bastard, but I’ll give him this, he knew how to make things look expensive.I closed my eyes and let out a slow sigh. Peace. For once. The breeze didn’t bite, the birds weren’t chirping like they were on meth, and I was just about to lose myself in that rare moment when I heard the damn heels.Click. Click. Click.Fuck, I didn’t even need to look.My smile died before I opened one eye.Raya.She stood there like she was waiting for me to beg her to speak, I didn’t move I just looked ahead, trying to pretend the sun was more interesting than whatever drama she came with this time.“Well?” I muttered, my tone low and flat. “What can I do for you on this beautiful,

Leo Thanper’s POVI walked through the hallways of Bluestone’s hospital, boots echoing against the tiles. Everything about this place worried. The smell, the silence, the concern on every damn face that passed me. I didn’t want to be here. But I came anyway.A few minutes ago, a beta showed up at the gates with a message. Christian Blackwood wanted to see me, urgently, no details, no context. Just that Evelyn was involved.I didn’t even wait to change clothes. I drove straight here, ignoring the guards who looked like they wanted to stop me at the gates. But they didn’t, not today, because something was wrong.And now I knew why, Evelyn was in an accident, they were supposed to protect her. She was under their roof, nder their damn command. They swore she’d be safe. Now she was lying unconscious in a hospital bed.I clenched my fists, jaw tight.They said she was stabbed. Stabbed, right in their mansion. In their territory, with all their guards and wolves and cameras, someone still g

Tyler BlackwoodI kept walking but my mind wasn’t in it. That man, Leo, there was something about him. I know I’ve seen his face before. Four months ago, after Evelyn was mistakenly injected with my damn sample, he was ways hanging around her, I didn’t think much of it then, but now? Now it’s coming back. That face, that always calm face, i’ve seen it somewhere before all this mess started.And I knew he’s hiding something, te way he looked at me earlier, I able to tell he lied straight to my face… I knew I've also seen him around my mansion a few times too, back when Evelyn and I were still together. I don’tvknow how but I know."Shit," I muttered under my breath.I kept walking, not even sure where I was going. Evelyn probably doesn’t even want to see me, not after the last time we spoke. I said things I shouldn’t have, I even kissed her. Why the fuck did I do that? If I'm being honest, it was because I still wanted her. Living with her again after all these years made me realize s

ChristianIt had been three fucking days, three long, brutal, mind-numbing days. I hadn’t slept. I hadn’t eaten. I didn’t give a shit if my body broke down. We searched every damn street, every back alley, every pack line. Nothing.Not a single fucking trace of her. I stood outside Tyler’s mansion now, drenched in sweat and dirt, fists clenched so tight I felt my own claws trying to break through skin. Leo stood by the gate, face blank, but his eyes were dark. Tyler was pacing the front yard like a caged beast.“I’m telling you,” Tyler muttered, yanking the wood from one of his betas, “they knew what they were doing."“No shit,” I snapped. “But who are they? Rogues don’t move like that. And they sure as hell don’t leave zero trail.”Leo leaned on the SUV, arms crossed. “She’s not just some Luna anymore. She’s carrying a child, one of yours. That’s motive enough for half the goddamn continent.”I turned sharply to him. “What the hell is that supposed to mean?”“Nothing,” he shrugged. “

Leo ThanperThe sun was already up, but I didn’t care. I grabbed the edge of the stone block and dragged it across the yard. It was damn heavy, but I kept moving it anyway. My muscles burned like hell, sweat ran down my chest, and my throat was dry, but none of it mattered. Working out was the only thing that helped clear my head these days.Everything had gone quiet after Evelyn was found. Thank the moon for that. It could’ve ended worse. It had been months and it felt like just yesterday Raya. I never liked her. She always had that desperate gleam in her eyes anytime Christian so much as breathed with Evelyn. But to abduct Evelyn? Just to stop her from giving birth to his child? She lost her damn mind. And now, thanks to Evelyn’s testimony, she was locked up. Good. She deserved it.I straightened up and reached for my towel, wiping the sweat off. The yard smelled of wet earth and pine, Redwood’s scent. My pack. My home.A door creaked behind me, and one of my betas jogged over.“Al
