All Chapters of The Alpha's Seventh Luna : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Eve Kolton’s face darkened with rage, his jaw clenched so hard a muscle twitched in his cheek. He looked ready to snap Helen's neck right there on the porch. Before he could speak, tears started to flood Helen's eyes. She pulled her hands back to her chest, her small frame trembling as she looked up at him with a pitiful, helpless expression. "I'm sorry, Kolton," Helen sobbed softly, wiping a tear from her pale cheek. "I didn't mean to say anything hurtful. I am just confused and exhausted." Kolton glared down at her, his broad chest rising and falling in heavy, tight breaths. "Maybe You shouldn't have come here, Helen." "I am sick, Kolton," she whimpered, her voice cracking as she took a small, weak step toward him. "I have cancer. The doctors told me I don't have much time left. I had nowhere else to go. I just wanted to come back home and hope that you would take me under your roof one last time." I watched her closely, my eyes narrowing. She looked frail, standing there in

Eve I was standing in the dust of the outdoor training grounds, a dull iron training sword gripped tight in my hand. I had badly needed to train and Calvin had given more men than necessary to watch me while I did that. I needed to exhaust my body to stop my mind from spinning. I swung the iron blade hard through the air, sweat dripping down my neck. Every time I swung the weapon, the image of Kolton in his study flashed behind my eyes. I couldn't wipe it away. Sandra had loved him since they were kids. She had stood by his side, watching him take six wives before me, enduring years of silent hell while hoping he would eventually pick her. No wonder she hated me. No wonder she had been in quiet competition with me since the moment I stepped into this pack house, marking territories and throwing words whenever she could. She believed my spot belonged to her. “He doesn't want you,” I told myself, tightening my grip on the leather hilt until my knuckles turned white. “You saw

Eve That whole day passed, and Kolton was still not back. I lay in the massive bed, staring at the dark ceiling as my chest burned with the steady heat of the mating bond. Inside my mind, Zee paced back and forth, her wolf form bristling with frustration. ‘Stop fighting him, Eve,’ Zee pleaded into the quiet darkness of my mind. ‘Stop trying to push him away mentally. Every time you convince yourself that he doesn't want us, you burn our body alive. We are the ones who get to suffer for it!’ "I don't want to feel this way, Zee," I thought back, wiping a thin layer of sweat from my forehead. "You saw him with Sandra. He doesn't care about us." ‘He does,’ Zee insisted stubbornly. ‘He bled for us at Romeo's compound. He claimed us as Luna before his entire pack. Even Calvin said he has fallen for us. Accept the bond for now so we don't die in this bed.’ I let out a long, shuddering breath and closed my eyes. Zee was right about one thing. Pulling away mentally was only killing me. I

Eve "You saw me standing here with my wife, Helen," Kolton barked, his voice loud across the open field. "Why would you come down here?"Helen stopped in her tracks, her bottom lip trembling as she looked at him with big, watery eyes."I was treated badly by Calvin!" Helen sobbed, pressing her hand over her chest. "That is why I was waiting for you to come back! He ordered guards to throw me out of the Luna's room and they handled me so roughly!""Whatever Calvin did to you, I am sure you deserved it," Kolton said flatly, not stepping away from my side.Helen let out a soft cry of pain, covering her face with her hands. She turned around and walked back toward the pack house, her slow steps making her look weak and frail in the bright sunlight.For a moment, I felt genuine pity for her. For a woman Kolton had once been married to, he was cold to her.Once she vanished behind the heavy wooden doors, Kolton turned back to face me. He reached out to touch my arm, his dark eyes searching

Eve "I didn't marry Noya because I wanted to," Kolton said, his voice breaking the quiet of the grand bedroom. "It was something I needed to do to protect her."I opened my eyes slowly, finding him lying close beside me on the dark sheets, staring right into my face."I didn't take Romeo's wife to be mine," Kolton added softly.I sat up on the bed, pulling the dark blanket up over my chest as I looked down at him in confusion. I wondered why he was telling me all of this right now, right after we had just made love for the first time in his suite.Kolton reached out, propping himself up on one elbow as his eyes searched my face. "It is important that you know this part of me, Eve."I stayed silent, my throat tight as I waited for him to go on."Noya is the younger sister of my late best friend, Roland," Kolton explained, his tone heavy and serious. "Roland saved my life when we were teenagers. I have always owed Roland. When he died during a rogue attack years ago, he only asked for
