EUDORAOf all the ways I imagined seeing Alpha Rex again after he woke up, being at my door wasn’t one of them. Yet, there he was, standing with his two hands dipped in his pocket as he stared straight at me. I lost count of the number of times my heart skipped a beat just by seeing him there.I panicked. And I reacted by doing the craziest thing I’ve done since kissing him in his unconscious state. I slammed the door in his face, fastened the lock and backed away from it like it would come crashing down any moment from then. I placed my hand on my beating heart to calm and assure myself that everything was alright but my brain was screaming the opposite. None of this was alright. I didn’t expect to see him so soon or to see him at all. Especially as I have prepared myself for the next time we would meet. The plan was simple, act like nothing happened. Like I didn’t sneak after him and disrespect him. Like it wasn’t my fault he fell down the cliff. Like things were back to the way
ALPHA REX.I didn’t know why I approached her room until I saw her. It was because I knew the sight of her—safe, under my roof and belonging to me—would calm my raging thoughts and send them into hiding. It worked, until it didn’t. Eudora succeeded in stirring something beyond anger inside of me. So much that it hurt. In my painfully hard dick and somewhere in my heart. Especially as I realized that what she had for me when she saw the blood was true concern.It wasn’t just a chore for her or a duty she was sworn by but true worry. It was etched in her features. Her pupils had dilated and the specks of brown inside of them had been even brighter It was laced in her voice with the way she scolded me like I was a fucking child. I simmered down before I realized it and let her guide me like I was strong enough to break all the bones in her body.She’d been genuinely worried and I hated and liked it at the same time. I hated it because who she worried about wasn’t truly me. I liked it
EUDORA. Since our last encounter, I’ve been wary of the Alpha. The promises of what he would do to me excited and scared me at the same time and the only way to keep my emotions from overwhelming me was avoiding him. Thankfully, he seemed really busy and everything seemed to return to the way it used to be quicker than I expected after everything that has happened in the past week. The only thing that wasn’t the same anymore was my heart as well as my relationship with my only friend. I wasn’t even sure if I could call her that anymore. Zena hasn’t said more than a word to me since our first big fight. When our paths meet around the house, I either get a nod of the head of a simple “hey” as she retires back into her room. But even before that, running into each other always sends some sort of shocking signal throughout my entire body. Awkward wasn’t the kind of feeling I was supposed to have with Zena around but that was the exact feeling each time we suddenly ran into each other
L’s POV•••One would think one good turn in your life means everything will suddenly begin to go well. One good fortune and you think you have the entire world under your feet so instead of getting crushed under the heavy weight of the world, you are rather standing on it, strong and resilient, knowing you survived. But it never really ends, does it? Because even when you are on top of the world, you can always fall. No wind is too small to throw you down and your greatest fear should be not being able to stand again after you fall.***Things changed. It was clear they would after what had happened. The news spread faster than lightning. Of course, it was just the one of me being taken by not just anyone but by the son of the Alpha and the future Alpha of the pack and not about us being mates.No one could ever find that out. I still remember Maximilian’s strong warning that night. “All you have to do is stay still. Don’t do anything. I will do everything for us, I will fight
L’s POV•••If we thought the worst thing that could happen to us was his parents finding out about us, we were wrong. Things could get a lot worse than that and it did. It all went down from the moment Maximilian stepped in between his mother and I without thinking. I couldn’t blame him because I knew he was only trying to protect me just like he promised. I could only blame the world that did this to us. That didn’t give us a chance to love each other on our own terms but through the circumstances around us.“You don’t mean that.” His mother was finally able to say after it seemed like forever since he made the groundbreaking announcement. With his hand still holding mine firmly, he faced his mother defiantly, “It’s a mate bond, mother. I don’t have to mean it. You just have to open your eyes and see it.” I’ve never seen Luna Trisha so distraught. I never even thought she was capable of any other feeling other than the one every one of us has come to know but I witnessed it firs

L’s POV.•••Mason. My very motivation had come to me and even though my legs were weak, I willed them to pull me up so I could go to my brother. When they failed, I crawled on all fours, tears spilling out of my eyes despite the smile that was beginning to form on my lips at the sight of him. My hoarse voice sent soft weak words out my chapped lips as Mason also went on to kneel to meet my height.“Mason.” I wish he didn’t have to see me this way—broken and barely clinging on to life. If I didn’t miss him so much that it hurt, I would have turned him away from me so that his innocence will remain the same, that’s if the monster who did this to us hasn’t tainted it yet. I think it was that fear that made me hold on to my brother instead of turning him away. If Mason was hurting and broken like me, I had to know. I had to fix it before he’s past repair.“Luna.” He was heaving, breaking down in tears as soon as he took full sight of me. While he cried, my hands roamed him—from his
EUDORA.I threw up. And if I had gotten to the bathroom a second later, the contents of my stomach that were now swirling in the water closet would have ended up on my bed instead. I was bent over the toilet seat, assisting my weight with my hands that gripped both sides of the seat tightly while I tried to catch my breath.Moments after I was sure there was no need for me to remain in there, I flushed the toilet and watched the last of the nasty content disappear while my mouth still bore the taste and a stinging reminder of why I threw up in the first place.At the wash hand basin, I splashed water all over my face and also took some in my mouth to cleanse it. With dread, I returned back into my room, taking ginger steps like I was an intruder there. It was just where I left it on my bed—the Journal. From a distance, it looked even more ominous than it did on the first night I found it buried under all that dirt. More ominous than it did a few minutes ago when I hadn’t read the se
