Evie's POV By the time the tears in my eyes would dry up and I would be back to myself, I found myself at a strange place in the forest. It was a part of the forest that I had never explored before, but I stayed put as the place was quiet. Even if it was not quiet, I knew that I didn't have the zeal to go anywhere just then, especially not back to the mansion where I would be forced to come face to face with that evil man who called me a cheap whore.I didn't blame him, though. I blamed myself. If it wasn't because I couldn't keep my lust to myself, I wouldn't have fallen victim to his harsh words. I had faced the worst from the man too, so I couldn't understand why his words cut deep into my heart this time. Maybe it was because I thought that we had reached some level where there was mutual respect for each other. Heck, the man had even wanted to make me the managing director of his company. Why else would he want to do that if he was not sure about me? If he thought that I was no

Evie's POV "Don't you even dare about touching a hair on her head!" I heard the intruder yell at Rebecca. The latter turned and snorted in annoyance. "And who is going to stop me? You? A weak Omega?" She laughed as if she was thinking about how ridiculous the thought was. She turned back to me as if the intruder was a nobody that she should be concerned about."I might be a weak Omega while you are of the Elder's bloodline, but against all of us, I don't think you will be able to do much." She hissed.That made Rebecca turn to look at her. "What do you mean by all of you? Do you want to die?""Grace, leave," I pleaded with the woman who was the intruder and was bent on making herself my savior by endangering her own life. "Please."She ignored me as if I hadn't said anything to her at all. Instead, she smiled and spread her arms out before she turned to look at Rebecca, who was still foaming from her mouth."When I said we, I meant we." She said with a bold grin. As if that was the

Damon's POV "Alpha!"That single, urgent call made me froze to a spot. "Alpha!" The shriek came again. This time, it was from two to three people with different pitches of voices.Even though I tried to move, I found the task excruciating to achieve. I knew that the desperate call of these people could only mean something bad. As bad as the fact that Evie has just lost her life."Alpha, please!" The doctor shouted again.That jolted me out of whatever had me spellbound to a spot. I turned on my heels and rushed over to the bed as I saw Evie convulsing profusely and the doctor doing something I couldn't understand to get her to stop the act. "What the fuck is going on?!" I yelled, completely losing the little control I had."She seems to be going into a panicking mood." The doctor cried. "Please don't die in me!" He yelled, slapping her by the chin."Do you want to die?!" I hissed at him. The hand he had in midair froze, and he bowed his head. "Don't you dare hit her again." I igno

Alpha River's POV I prayed to the moon goddess that nothing would happen to that woman. If anything did, I wasn't sure if I would be able to cope. For what felt like forever, I was no longer cold during the night. Just the mere thoughts of her were enough to lift me out of whatever dark mood I was in. The nightmare that usually plagued me every time I closed my eyes was almost always disappearing each time I slept with the thoughts of her on my mind.The nightmare was something no one knew of. It was my own demon to fight alone. I intended to do that itself. But thanks to Evie, who was the sunshine of my darkness, I could cope with it without worrying too much about anything else. So, what would I have done if she lost her life?I turned sideways and watched silently as her chest rose and fell as she slept on. Her eyes were no longer flickering about, struggling to choose between staying awake or falling asleep. She was now sleeping."Oh, the drip you are taking is done." The doctor

Evie's POV No matter how hard I grilled the Alpha about where Alpha River was and what happened to him, the man refused to tell me anything. However, I was able to calm down when Miss Aurora and Gamma Samuel visited me at the hospital."The Alpha offered to let him stay for the night as he was grateful that he gave you blood, but Alpha River rejected the offer and went back to his pack. Don't worry too much, though. He got to his pack safely. He made sure to call Alpha Damon every day to ask about you." Miss Aurora informed me."What about Grace and the others?" I asked next."Oh. They are all fine." She answered. But then, she scrunched her face."What is it?" I asked, already feeling nervous. I was suddenly reminded of the Alpha's command of them. "Is the Alpha still not allowing them to eat?!" I yelled. I felt the impact when my chest constricted and pain radiated through my body up to my head, giving me a headache. "Damn!" I said in a low, slow breath when I regained myself."Who
