Alex POV
I didn’t know what to do, I was frozen in my spot, as much as I wanted to move I couldn’t. Before me, was my mate, bleeding out on the floor. I felt tears streaming down my face. I finally understood why I was so drawn to Evie, I knew she wasn’t my mate, but she brought me comfort.
“ALEX!” Evie shouted. “Come here and help me.” I could finally move and walked over to Evie and sat down beside her. I wanted to reach for Lily’s hand but didn’t want to scare her at the same time. “Lily, this is my friend Alex, he’s going to help you, okay?” Lily nodded her head. “Alex come her and grab her hand.”
“Hi Lily, it’s nice to meet you.” I gave her a weak smile. “Well, I hoped it would be under circumstances.” Lily snickered.
“It’s.. okay., it.. doesn’t.. hurt., that… much.” Lily spoke, and it was literally music to my ears.
“Alex pick her up, we mind linked Josh, and he will be here in a few minutes with the car, the doctor is already waiting.”
EpilogueEvie’s POV5 years laterI have been a doctor for five years now as well as the Luna of the Dark Wood Pack. I really love both jobs, helping and healing people is just my passion, and I’m glad that Ashton could finally see that too. We had our twins almost five years ago, damn time goes fast. Our oldest daughter Riley Katherine, the next Alpha of the pack, and our son Ian Lorenzo. Ian and Ashton are very protective over Riley, but what did you expect, boys will be boys. Riley on the other hand is a little dare devil. Always climbing on anything and playing roughly. Yes she’s defiantly the next Alpha alright.After the twins we had one more boy Benjamin James. We wanted more kids but when I was pregnant with Ben I had some complications, where I almost died. So, I decided it would be better to tie my tubes, Ashton was definitely on my side with that decision because he didn’t want to lose me. Oh, by the way Ben is three yea
I was at the store, buying some late-night snacks for Kristin and I, who was still at our dorm. As I walked out of the store and onto the parking lot when I saw to figures who seemed to be male on the opposite side of the street, I couldn’t see much with the dim lights of the streetlamps. As I looked closer I saw that it was them, more specifically him. I felt my heart almost pound out of my chest, and my mouth fell open "Ashton?" I whispered softly, but my whisper seemed to travel all the way to him. Ashton and Josh both turned to look my way. I hear him shout my name and before I knew what happened, I'm being pulled into a chest. How did he find me?"Evie." Ashton says which sounded like he was almost out of breath, as if he is in shock from seeing me."Let go of me." I spit out angrily. Because yes I was angry, and most of all hurt. But I wouldn’t let him see that."I can't." He whispers softly in my ear."I don&r
Evie’s POVI ran back to the dorm, looking back to see if I wasn't being followed. I was relived to find out they didn't follow me. Although I have a feeling he won't stop until I submit. And he FUCKING bit me. The decency of the guy. Did he really think it was okay to just bite me? NO, the answer is fucking NO. Who bites someone?When I finally reached my dorm, I looked in my bag to find my keys. I finally found them,should have known they wouldn't be in my bag but in my pockets,I opened the door and rushed inside. Once inside I made sure to lock the door. I turned my back to the door and sat down against it, thinking about what had just happened. Kristin ran into the living room looking at me."What the hell happened to you?!" she asked when she saw me "and where are all the groceries?" I mean priorities, but still she asked about me first, so I guess it's okay. I didn't tell Kristin about Ashton and Josh being werewolves. She probab
Ashton's POVAshton POVI watched as my mate, who I just marked, ran away. My wolf and I had mixed feelings; on one hand we finally marked our beautiful mate but the look in her green eyes she gave us almost broke us. She looked frightened of us, she was angry at us, she fucking threatened us with a swiss army knife. She could have hurt herself. But she looked like she really hated us and ordered me to stay away. I felt my wolf whimpering at the thought of never seeing our mate again. But I'm going to make sure that doesn't happen.''Ashton" Josh shouted, and I growled at him. "Yes, I know you're still the Alpha, but what the fuck did you just do." This time I growled harder."I just marked my mate, something I should have done the moment I met her." I answered in a calm tone, trying to keep my wolf at bay."You know what is going to happen right, you forced marked her. If she's not accepting the mark she could die. If you're not completely the mat
Evie’s POVKristin, Alex, and I arrived back at the dorm. Kristin opened the door and waited for us to get in. "Are you coming?" She asked."No, go ahead. I have to talk to Alex about something." She gave me a wink and smirked."Sure, be safe and don't do anything I wouldn't do." She laughed."Ha, ha, very funny. I don't even do things you do." We were both laughing now. While Alex was just staring at us, like we were crazy. But I guess we are, so I don't mind. "But yeah, I'll be okay. Lock up when you get inside.""Yes mum." She said while walking inside. Now it was just me and Alex. "You wanted to talk? So, talk." I said to him."Well how about you tell me how you really got that bite on your neck." He shocked me."I already told you how I got it. There was a dog.""And don't tell me it was a dog." I signed."But that is th-" I tried to get out of the awkward situation."Please don't lie to me Evie, who is
Alex POVWhen I was listening to Evie's story, I got so angry, she didn’t even know what was happening. How could someone do this to their mate. I wish Evie were my mate. I would treat her like the queen she is supposed to be, or should I say Luna. How can someone deliberately hurt their own mate.I felt like I was almost shifting because I was so angry. I wanted to choose Evie as my chosen mate, because I still hadn’t found mine and I felt comfortable with the idea of having her as my mate. But now, that's not even possible anymore. She's wearing his mark, Alpha Ashton of the Shadow pack. I heard the stories about him, he slept with almost every she-wolf in his pack. And apparently even after he found his mate. The pain she must have been trough and not even knowing why makes me and my wolf even more angry.I needed to find a way to help Evie, I don't know how yet but maybe one of the elders know how to help her. When Evie was finished with her stor
Evie’s POV Okay that just happened, after fleeing one wolf I found another one apparently. Well, that sucks. Anyway, when Alex left, I did what he asked. I went inside mine and Kristin's dorm. I remember how hard it was to get this dorm together. We specifically told the dorm manager that we wanted to have a dorm together. He told us that it would be no problem, but still we ended up not having one together. Apparently, he confused us with to other friends Maya and Daimy. I ended up having a dorm with Maya, while Kristin was paired with Daimy. When we found out we immediately switched, but we ended up being good friends with them and we sometimes go out with them too. When Kristin and I finally got our dorm we all went to the home store and bought all our stuff together. The dorm was already furnished with a big grey couch, 2 small black metal coffee tables with a wooden tabletop, a small TV and cabinet around and under it, wooden dinner table and chairs.
Kristin went to school this morning, she had a later class than I did, at 10, I think. So, when she woke up, she turned on the music to listen to some pop music. Which was not a nice way to wake up, even if it was the second time. Now don't get me wrong I like pop music sometimes, I mean I like Justin Timberlake, but not early in the morning before I had my coffee. I'm more of an old school music kind of girl, like Bon Jovi and Queen and I kind of like country music in the morning. When she realized I was still at home and not yet at school she asked why, of course. So, I just said my neck hurt and that was believable enough. I mean it kind of does, not the kind I expected it to hurt, more like a tingling feeling. It's kind of irritating to be honest.When I finally got out of bed, deciding I couldn't go to sleep for the 3rd time this morning, I went to the bathroom to do my business. Got the braids out of my hair, now it was flowing in waves around my face and not the boring
