Chapter 51
Eve POV
I’m up in my room staring out the window as some of the Alpha’s arrive. I have to keep reminding myself that tomorrow they leave. Even if I recognize anyone, they will be gone tomorrow. Michelle comes to the window.
“You know Conrad will be upset if he sees you at the window. He doesn’t want anyone to know you’re here“. Her voice is
full of concern.
“I know. It’s just like looking into another world. I know Conrad and I are getting closer but to think that all these powerful wolves might see me next to him one day. What will they think of me? The abused, rouge wolf with no pack. It’s my main fear that stops me from wanting to be with him. I don’t want to bring shame to his title“.
She just raises an eyebrow at me. “Oh really. And what type of wolf should he be with“.
“You see the she–wolf in the red glittery dress and blonde hair. Her name is Cordelia. She is the daughter of Councilman Alpha Anthony. He represents the east which has the most packs in the alliance and he has the largest pack in the zone at
- She makes a more obvious choice than me“.
Michelle just starts laughing. “Please. The girl is a stick with what I’m guessing are fake boobs. Conrad much prefers your curves. Also her outfit doesn’t match her color tone so she is just wearing the dress for attention“.
We watch as she interacts with Conrad and he is clearly annoyed which makes Michelle laugh. “I’m not even a wolf and I can smell her desperation from here“. With that, she closes the curtains to block my view.
I know I have to stay hidden tonight but it’s hard to to watch and worry. I’m just glad I have my girls. We talk about random stuff and nothing all at once. Willow tells us how fascinating wolves are and all that she is learning. Kimberly is loving the pups and how excited they are when they see her around. The parents even seem to greet her warmly now.
Michelle starts talking about how she is designing outfits for wolves. She has been showing off a few around the pack including outfits for shifting. The wolf can put over their head in a large head opening and when shifted back, it turns into a dress with a belt. She has apparently had some interest since I showed off her last outfit at Conrad’s party.
Then all the girls turn to me. Michelle’s eyes widen as she tries to get me to tell them as much information as possible. Apparently, my descriptions don’t have enough details and they want to examine every interaction I have had with Conrad. When I tell them about the night we spent together at his party they are giggling and screaming.
Michelle is practically jumping on the couch. “So do you think you will want to have sex with him soon“.
“No. I don’t know. I mean I know I’m not exactly a virgin but the idea of being that close to someone because I want to or even that I might like it is strange“.
Kimberly is very upset by this description. “As far as I’m concerned you are a virgin. You never consented previously so none of that counts. First times are always scary. I know mine was”.
This leads to a whole new discussion of virginity stories. Michelle’s was after a date in the back of a car. Kimberly was in her room with flowers, music, and candles. Willow was at the guy’s place after a day at museums. They all had the same things in common. They trusted the guy, they felt comfortable doing it and it was scary but they felt safe with the guy, and were happy afterward that they took that chance.
I was thinking about this when I started to get some slight chest pain. I started to rub my chest and Kimberly noticed,
“You OK Eve“.
I started to get breathless. “Yeah. I think it’s just heartburn or something“.
Michelle instantly panics. “Since when do you get heartburn“.
I feel the pain drop to my stomach. That’s when I realized what it is.
“I don’t think it’s me. Conrad’s upset“.
Willow shocked asks, “What do you mean Conrad“.
“It’s a werewolf thing. When wolves are close, you become synced to each other’s emotions and know when each other is in trouble. I have to go to him”.
“The hell you are. Conrad’s order where clear. You are to stay in this room until Saturday“.
I get up to leave and Michelle tries to get me to sit down. I run to the door and can feel my panic rising. Whatever is going on is serious.
The guards stared at me as I opened the door. “Do you need something Eve. We can have someone go get it“.
“Something is wrong with Alpha King. I have to go to him“.
“Are orders were very clear. You are not to leave under any circumstance“.

“And if something is wrong with my mate and your Alpha King, and you did nothing. What will happen then. You can
either come with me or stay here but I’m going“.
They look at each other worried but agree to come with me.
When I got to the bottom floor I could sense his aura coming through his study door but could sense other wolves in there with him. His booming voice came out the door clearly as if I was in the room.
I waited outside and listened.
