Evelyn POV

“I don’t understand Reuben, you can’t just let rogues leave. They need to be re- educated…given a chance to be able to fend for themselves. Or if showing remorse, that they can join this or another pack.”

“Evelyn, these people killed our people. They would have killed our children. They can’t stay here. They have gone…I have sorted it.”

“But sorted what Reuben…”

“They are gone, you don’t need to know anything else.”

“You mean you’ve killed them? Damn it Reuben, that’s not how we do things around here.” I was finding it hard to keep my calm at this moment in time.

“Well its how I do things sweetheart and I won’t put yours or our children’s lives in danger.”

I know exactly what he has done. He thinks I’m an idiot, naïve. He thinks I wouldn’t have taken similar actions if required? But you need to at least give people a chance to try and change.

Donnie mind-linked me in the early hours when he noticed them moving the bodies into the cars.

“Evelyn..” Nate tries to back Reuben but I’m not having any of it, I know he was the one that carried out Reuben’s orders. Whilst Reuben was cuddling me in bed.

“I don’t want to hear it Nate…” I put my hand up angrily to cut him off, my glare having already stopped him from continuing with his defensive speech.

“Noah…Noah did you know anything about this?” I turn to my beta, who was being quieter than usual in our security meeting.

“Evelyn…” His eyes flicker to Nate, which I don’t miss.

“May I remind you that you are my beta and follow my rule.” I let my aura roll off me and on to him.

“I had an idea of what might happen but not to what extent.” He admits, struggling under my command.

“You should have told me.” I growl at him, Reuben moving closer to me in a protective movement.

“Told you what Evelyn. That they weren’t safe to keep on pack lands, that yet again we have been attacked and our people killed. The families are still in morning….”

“I know…” I scream at him, my own frustration at the recent events overwhelming me.

“I know they are grieving because I sat in that Lake House feeling them pass over, and even as I was being plunged repeatedly under water I could still feel the pack deaths. I was dying but kept going for as long as I could not only to fight for my children but also to help as many pass over as I could. So don’t dare to try and tell me that what has happened was to help the families grieving, that’s bullshit.”

I can’t believe this has happened, on my pack lands. Without my even knowing. I am absolutely fuming at the three of them. Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FɪndNøvel.ɴᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

My hands were shaking with my anger. I feel a hand tug on one, a hand clasping it and holding it firmly for support.

“Evelyn, calm down sweetheart…the baby.” Reuben growls in my head, angry that I was working myself into a state that he thinks would cause stress to the baby. Yet his thumb was now stroking the back of my hand, trying to soothe my emotions.

The tingles were starting to run through my body, the mate bond keeping us connected. No matter how irritated we might be with one another in the moment, it still sent signals.. sparks as a reminder.

“Did you kill them all?” I breathe out, sitting back down if anything to put Reuben’s mind at ease. I was still bloody angry at him.

I watch as Reuben and Nate both enter a mind-link, their eyes glazing over in front of Noah and I. Subtle!

“Yes.” Nate answers, exiting the mind- link before Reuben.

“Evelyn, I’m sorry I kept it from you.

But I had my reasons as did Reuben and Noah. Please trust that we would never put the Silver Moon pack deliberately in a dangerous situation or damage your reputation.” Nate adds, his remorse clear.

“If we are to be a team, I can’t have things hidden from me. Otherwise I will start to act in a similar manner.”

“What the fuck does that mean?”

Reuben growls at me, his free clenched fist slamming down on my wooden round table.

“It means that you might be my mate Reuben and the father to my children, but be under no illusion I will act as an Alpha of the Silver Moon alliance even if it means going against what you have planned.”

I can’t even shift, I can’t burn off this anger that is eating away at me.

Noah was wisely keeping his head down at the hospital, whereas Reuben and Nate were camping out on the kitchen table with their laptops and maps.

I had kicked them out of my office, I couldn’t bare to be around either of them right now. I get it, but sometimes there is a better way to solve something than turning to violence.

The rogues could have been held off pack lands, could have been shown another way of life if that’s what they wanted. So many rogues were taken advantage.
