Evie’s POVI’m not an insecure nitwit! So why after Adam told the truth did I feel the need to tell him about Tyler?“You should use my office to make the calls to your family. Too many ears in the bullpen,” Adam tells me. “We have about an hour before the first people will start coming in.”I don’t know what possessed me, but I call Tyler first, “Hey Tyler, it’s Evie.”Adam was about to leave me alone but turned and sat on the couch when he heard me say Tyler. Yeah, I smirk at him knowing his can only hear my side of the conversation. I see him fighting to keep Bruce down.Me- You got my back, right?”Stacey- Bruce not only let him have sex, but live with a human. Oh yeah, we are in sync on this one!“Hey Evie, how are you? How did the interview go?”Adam gets up and walks over to me. He hits the speaker phone button. I roll my eyes.Stacey- I fucking hate technology.“It was going well, but then this Lycan barged in and took over,” I smirk at Adam, who is unamused.“Wow, so he refu
Adam’s POV“Bruce is asking for Stacey to meet him in the arena. She is ignoring him at the moment,” I tell Evie as we pull out onto the road.“She is wounded. She, nor I, understand how he could coward away and let you live with a human. I am struggling with the idea myself. Adam how could you do that?” She asks.“Evie, it wasn’t like I did it to hurt my mate. I didn’t think I had a mate. I was 28 years old, alone and I knew Augustus was going to have to name me heir. Iris was my distraction. But she also kept me focused. Growing my business didn’t happen overnight. I started doing campaigns at 21, just to let my creativity out. I was doing okay; I made a living. Just me and my ideas and a few contacts. Iris worked at the largest Media outlet in the Northwest. I took her to dinner to try and get favorable rates for my clients. I ended up sleeping with her. I got my favorable rates and a pretty steady fuck buddy. Bruce was pissed, he kept telling me to wait for you. That the goddess w
Evie’s POVStacey- So Adam is marked, I’m marked. You are all that is left, girlie.Me- Yeah, I need to find a way to get over this.Stacey- It’s okay to be mad. I’m just glad you didn’t let him get killed.I walk into the house and up to the room Adam and I shared this morning. I packed all my things and I hear them all taking downstairs. I hear Tyler’s voice, so I know he is awake. I hear laughter. That is also a good sign. Then, I hear glass. Oh, shit! If Joshua is behind the bar, I’m gonna need guest rooms.I check out the rest of the upstairs and there are four more bedrooms. Good, one for me and one for each of them. I take one with an ensuite. And make sure all the beds are made and there are towels in the guest bath.I change into a pair of sweats, put my hair on top of my head and take off my make up.“Evie?” I hear Adam calling me.I poke my head out of the bedroom, “I’m here.”“You aren’t going to share my room?” Adam looks upset.“No, I don’t want to be that close to you r
Evie’s POVI stare at the Lycan female for a long time. I’m waiting for her response. Finally, she speaks.“I can see the goddess hasn’t given you more brass than brains,” she begins to gather her things. “Word of advice from one female to another, know your place, and clearly you don’t. You are not special, you are mediocre at best, and even my son deserves better.”“Thank you, it’s good to see the bar set so low. That much easier to exceed expectations,” I tell her. Again, the males in the room suppress laughs.“Well, clearly you are too stupid to take my advice. So, I’ll leave you to your misery.” She walks out the door.“Would you gentlemen mind if I had a word with Evie alone?” Adam asks and my family leaves. “That was….”“Don’t say hot, or a turn one,” I cut him off.Adam raises his eyebrows, “I was going to say impressive. No one stands up to her. You flustered her, I’m impressed.”He moves closer and puts his hands on my waist in a loving way. He leans in and kisses my neck.“
Adam’s POVIt’s dark out and I was asleep, but not anymore.Evie is kissing my neck. I pull her close and she opens her legs around me and rolls us to missionary. We kiss and without words we start to make love. Her heels are on my thighs, and she is moving with me, I hold my body close hers as I thrust into her. Damn, she is so wet. She starts to moan, but I'm not ready. I adjust just a little to hopefully hold off her orgasm, but it doesn’t work. She digs her nails into my back as she comes undone. I can’t help it, her face, moans, and those nails down my back, throw me over the edge.I collapse on top of her, trying not to crush her.“I woke you up to go downstairs with me to get something to eat. We skipped dinner,” she tells me as I am coming down from my high.“Oops,” I say, making her laugh.I grab my boxers and she puts on my shirt.“What time is it?” She asks as we get into the kitchen.“Wow, it’s only 10:30pm,” I say surprised, I just go home four hours ago.“Feels so much l
Evie’s POV“Are you sure about this?” Adam asks as we put our bags into the boot of his car.“Yes, Adam, Joshua and Lucas are our friends, we should be there to support them!” We are leaving today for British Columbia, way out in the mountains. The Lycans have claimed an entire mountain and built their palace. Adam found us an inn at the base of the mountain since, as an Omega, he can’t stay in his parents' home or the palace.Joshua and Lucas will stand before the king tomorrow and be sealed as mates. Not that the king can do much to break them. They are marked. He would be killing them. Joshua is the son of a council member and Lucas’s family is considered nobility. If these two align against the king, Augustus might lose.Also at stake, will the king test the theory of rather or not he can keep fated mates apart.“I have a bad feeling, but you are right, we need to be there for Joshua.”We drive all day and make it to the inn. It’s small, but clean at least.“You can’t be loud in he
Triggers Ahead.Evie’s POVStacey- Bruce and I don’t like this. He can sense Caesar, the King’s Lycan, and Caesar is very restless. The King is planning something.Me- Whatever happens, you stay with me, and I will fight for us.Stacey- I’ll always be here, no matter what.“So,” Augustus’s voice breaks through my thoughts. “Were there any witnesses to your haze?”“A human, however, we have other proof,” Adam says.“Oh, please show it,” Augustus’s voice is really starting to get on my nerves.“Evie has marked me, my mark is a wolf with an E, only fated mates get such marks,” Adam shows his mark.“Anything else?” Augustus looks bored. Not a good sign.“My wolf is marked, not even a Lycan can mark a wolf without consent,” I speak as well.“How does Alpha Hendricks feel about his beautiful daughter being mated to a Lycan?” Baxter asks. “He has been an outspoken opponent of the King.”“My father does not oppose the King, he opposes the abuse of power some councilors have shown,” I continue
Adam’s POV“I’ll snap your neck, you piece of shit,” I hold Baxter against the wall. He is such a weakling, I don’t even need Bruce.Bruce- But I want to be a part of his death.Me- Get in line.“Emma” Augustus mummers out as they all stare at her head.“You can’t kill me,” Baxter laughs and then he puts his hand on my shoulder, the way he has many times to the king.Bruce- Magic, he is using magic. RESIST HUMAN!Me- Take over.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Bruce’s POVI can’t help but smirk as my human gives me control.“Lycan’s don’t react well to magic we go mad, or we give up. Our mate is special, she gives us untold strength,” I say to the wizard in my grasp. I lift him off the floor, so we are looking into each other’s eyes. “You are why, Caesar my King, is so restless. I can fix that.”I squeeze, cutting off his air flow. I keep squeezing. Emma was our nurse, she raised Caesar and I. Before we were awake, we knew Emma. The caretaker of our humans.Without his mate,
