Eva stood at the door, having no idea, remembering how Sebastian looked when she left. She didn’t know if her reasons were enough to be asked for forgiveness or if she was right to go look for Henry or not. One thing she agreed on was that it was, in fact, foolish, but it was one of the foolish things she had to do for her own peace of mind.She remembered what state of mind she was in when she left and the doubts that plagued her. Talking to her uncle and him throwing comments about how different she and Sebastian were was not helping, except there was this pull and his words, ‘Werewolves mate for life.’ He had asked her very clearly, but the way her uncle was saying it, it seemed like even if he wanted to, things at large might not be simple.So she hesitated to knock, and Kai was behind her, waiting for her to take one step forward. She took a deep breath, but the door already opened with a snap, and she met Sebastian’s wide gray eyes filled with worry, looking at her.“I–,”But sh

This was a bad idea, Eva knew it. Wouldn’t all of this be counterproductive? But when Sebastian said home, something empty inside of her went yawning, and she wanted what he was offering. A part of her felt conflicted, as if this wasn’t supposed to be this easy. This is not how this works, or she never thought it could work like this. But then how she imagined her life before was already a vague outline by generic goals of life, and now she knows she can’t stay in one place, and she is all but stuck now in the contradictory life between what she knew and what she is, without having any idea of who she is.Werewolf mate for life.I will protect you because you are mine to protect.All of this makes her believe that she belongs by his side, but she fails to feel it. That just makes her curl up more against his side and cry. For her heart and her soul were in conflict; it feels like from the moment she found out about her origins, someone had pulled her out of her skin, and now no matter

But to figure this out, Eva admitted her lack of knowledge—only she had no idea who to ask or what to ask exactly. Sebastian’s past was lingering like a shadow between them; every time they were in proximity, like a panther hidden in bushes, ready to strike at any moment. Sebastian knew her questions but hesitated, for it was not easy to talk about the past. He couldn’t make eye contact even when he started to mention it.Meanwhile, a Pack Meeting was called. Eva started to walk inside the house; when they all gathered on the porch, it became quite clear that most unofficial meetings took place here. When she went to the living room, Sebastian stopped her.“I want to tell them about us. Would you be alright with it?” he asked, leaning close so the people outside waiting wouldn’t listen, standing out of their view.Eva’s heart trembled at the idea. It became quite clear to her, after talking with Henry and Sebastian, that someone like her was not welcomed by werewolves. What would they

It was a new low, feeling this pathetic. Eva thought and looked up at Sebastian. “If—,” she began, but her mouth was shut with something warm and soft, her insides melted. She uncurled herself and her hands came to Sebastian’s face, trying to hold him closer. His hands came down to her waist as he kissed her and she felt the hollowness filled with his warmth, his lips pressed harder and her mouth opened to reciprocate, slow, steady and hard, he parted her knees and moved her legs to hook them around his waist as she moved her arms around his neck. She pulled away, coming up for air.“You—” she sputtered in disbelief.“I don’t know what to say to let you know how wrong you are,” he pressed her to the couch and kissed her, her lips moved with the same favor against him as desire uncurled inside her and her heart felt full. Sebastian’s hands came to her cheeks then to her jaw to hold her in place as his tongue pressed inside with intensity, blowing fire in her veins. To tell her the thing

Demon Wolf – they called me. A demon who sucks people’s very soul dry from fear. A reputation that served me well, both on our side of the camp and the enemy side, but my soul is being devoured by pain and grief. I lost my best friend, my guardian, my second family to this war because of one pack’s greed. No matter how much blood I spill, no price can turn time back. ~ Bash’s Journal.—“I see my image is perfectly ruined,” Sebastian said as he looked over Eva’s head as she tried to put together some notes Maya gave. Eva looked up, and he sighed in embarrassment. She had taken over his study. It was good to be productive.“I know now why you just gave only little comments in the form of feedback in papers,” Eva said, looking down at the notes. There was no way anyone could understand that.“Don’t ever tell that to Maya,” he said. “I have immaculately kept my two lives apart.”“With me here, I don’t think you are succeeding very much,” Eva grinned as Sebastian moved a chair to sit besi
