บททั้งหมดของ Moonlight Knows My Name : บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 20

Eve’s POV I listened as the sound of Astrid’s heels faded down the corridor,exhaling heavily as silence flooded in. I stared into the mirror, noticing the smear of my lipstick, the wetness of my eyes and just how pale my skin had become The woman that stared back at me obviously looked a far cry from the woman that walked into the funeral today. This stupid confrontation had managed to dig out memories I had buried far away, of course I knew the pain of the damage he did to me wasn’t healed, but I didn’t need to resurrect themDorian’s face was nothing but a whole reflection of my buried books of humiliation I shut my eyes, trying to calm myself, forcing my mind out of the black hole it had just been thrown into I thought of Danny and the events that took place before I changed my mind I had left him at the cabin before the ceremony; He sat happily, playing his game on the tablet Malik had given him only recently. I had left him with enough snacks and his favorite cartoon to keep

Malik’s POV The rain grew heavier hitting against the windows. I stood at the fireplace trying to get a little warmth. Meanwhile, something didn't exactly feel right to me, my call with Morwenna hung above me. Eve had retired to her bedroom for the night after suggesting I leave in order to maintain the peace between myself and Morwenna, “If only she knew.” I thought to myself She left before I could speak so I just told myself she was tired and probably needed to rest after the whole drama from today. But my wolf stayed restless I tried ignoring the feeling gnawing at me, throwing another log into the fire. The crackle from the burning log filling the air, Images of her eyes during the dinner flashed in my mind, the pain and distance in them. The way her body tensed up whenever Dorian spoke. It was everything from a person still nursing an old wound. And I had to know the story I couldn't help the giddiness I felt when she was around me, I had to know I wasn't about to

Dorian’s POV I pushed the lodge doors open. Adrenaline pumping so much pace to my legs as blood rushed to my head I had no reason to be here anyway, she belonged to someone else, yet I couldn't help it, I couldn't help how my heart thundered in my chest at the mere thought that she was in danger “Eve?” I called out. My voice echoing through the building No answer I ran to the room where I suspected to be hers. The closer I got to the doors, the louder the sound of a distant heavy breathing, I increased my pace with my every step heavier than the last I got there, examining the broken door in front of me, inside was Malik crouched, scanning the ground, his eyes glowing My gaze darted around searching for her But she was here My chest clenched. I couldn't stop myself, I lunged at him, grabbing him by the collar, slamming his back hard against the wall. “ What the hell did you do?” I roared. “Where is she?” My voice shook with fury. “What have you done to her, Malik?” He just

Eve’s POV By the time the storm eased, the house had gone quiet too. I sat by the edge of the bed clutching Danny’s shirt in my hand. My knuckles had gone pale against the fabric. He was asleep now exhausted from the drama and chaos of the night.I could still feel Dorian’s touch against my face, the way his fingers shook when he took the ropes off me.The door creaked open and Malik walked in, his hair still damp from the rain, his eyes moved from the bed before landing on me “Hey, you should get some rest.” He said quietly“I'm fine.” He watched me silently for a second before walking further in, his boots making soft sounds against the floor. “No, you're not Eve. You were tied up in the middle of nowhere with your son…” he stopped himself, his jaw tightening. “You’re not fine.” I shifted my gaze actively avoiding his. “Danny’s fine now, that's enough for me.”He watched me for a while before sitting on the couch just beside the bed. “ Who was it?” I hesitated. “I didn't see.”“

Eve’s POV The air outside had gone thick with silence by the time I broke out of the quarters I had been locked in I made my way to the lodge as planned by myself and Malik, I packed only the things I could not afford to lose. When the doors opened, Malik’s voice swam in. “It’s time.” I looked behind him. “Danny…?”“He’s safe now.” He said, stepping into the room. ” My men took him across the borders, by now he should be back in the human world. They can’t hurt him.” “You did what?” I scoffed in disbelief “It was the only way,” he said. “They were going to search the lodge for anything that incriminated you, sure if they found him, they most likely would have taken him to get you to admit to what they wanted to hear.” I nodded, swallowing the panic that was already starting to overwhelm me “Alright.” I whispered. “Let’s go.” He gave a short nod. “Pack light, we leave in 15 minutes.“I already did.” I said pointing to the little bag sitting behind me. “Let’s go already before I
