Chapter Sixty-Three
Alpha Dorian
I had to get up and leave. Seeing Evelyn again had my head spinning and my heart racing. And seeing her hanging off another alpha, infuriated me. She was supposed to be mine.
Without a word to anyone, I left the pack house and climbed into the passenger seat of the SUV. I needed to go before I did something st*pid, like challenge an alpha for a woman I canât even have. My ga*ma, Wes, climbed behind the wheel. The alphaâs beta escorted us out of the pack. He was smart too because given the chance I would have gone back to get her and our son.
âI told you she was our mate. Even though you shifted early doesnât mean I wouldnât have known who my mate was. Especially, since she was standing right in front of me.â Fang, my wolf said.
âThat doesnât help us now, does it?â I retorted. I was already furious without my wolf pointing out he was right.
The night she fell has replayed in my mind every day since it happened. Thatâs not how the plan was supposed to go. I knew my father was planning the attack and the plan was to get in before the warriors to get Evelyn out. I was only supposed to get intel for my father but I fell in love with her. She was a breath of fresh air, the sun shining bright.
My father anticipated that, and the warriors were sent in early without my knowledge. I tried to get to her but the warriors would get in my way. He must have known I wasnât going to let them kill her. By the time I reached the pack house, she was running east with her fatherâs

beta.
Everything changed when I watched her fall that night. I wish I would have jumped in after her. Then at least we would have been together. I was a coward and an important part of me died that night. And now I knew she was alive, caring for my son, cursing my name, was almost too much to bear. Her with someone else was a kick to the stomach. She was everything to me. I was willing to go against my father to protect her. I had so much regret from that night.
âAnd attacking her in her kitchen wasnât very smart.â Fang scoffed.
âIt was a big f**ken mistake.â I sighed, rethinking that moment. She looked so terrified. I should have grabbed and kissed her. I should have shown her how much I have missed her.
âThen Lisa would have known. She may not be the love of your life or fated mate but she has been good to us.â Fang said. He wasnât She has put up with all my bu***hit for the last eighteen years.
wrong.
âDorian, how long have we known each other?â Wes asked, pulling me from my thoughts. Looking around, we were almost back at our pack.
âSince we were kids,â I answered.
âAnd with being friends for so long, I figure I would know you pretty well, would you agree?â
âWhatâs your point?â I growled, growing impatient.
âWhy did you lie to Evelyn? We both know Lisa didnât happen until after you believed she had died. And the plan was for us to protect her. After we learned about the attack, you, me, and Jared were supposed to get her out.â He said. All of what he said was true. Being with Evelyn
was never an act.

âAnd?â
âWhy didnât you tell her the truth?â He exclaimed.
âAnd why would that have mattered? I have a mate, so I canât be with her. Itâs better if she hates me.â I growled.
âEvelyn made you a better man, Dorian. And your son deserves to know the truth. He believes you tried to kill his mother, to kill him. And you know that isnât the truth.â My ga*ma sighed.
We drove in silence after that. He may be right, but it doesnât change anything. Iâm still marked by another and we have a son together. Her being alive doesnât undo every decision I made after I lost her. just never thought I would see her again in this life.
For the rest of the drive home, I looked out the window and thought about the life I had without her. I had met Lisa years before I met Evelyn, but our relationship was only a friendship until after Evelynâs death. I needed someone I trusted to be my Luna and I trusted her. I also needed the pain to stop and I thought moving on quickly would take the pain away. It didnât but it made it easier to live with.
A few weeks after she turned eighteen, I marked her. She became pregnant with our son quickly and it was the distraction I needed to forget Evelyn. Chadwick is almost seventeen and has always looked like his motherâs side of the family. And knowing Evelyn gave birth to my son, I know why Chadwick wasnât an alpha wolf. Itâs rare for an alpha to have two alpha sons and three was unheard of. Lisa never got pregnant again and I never pushed it.
When Wes pulled up in front of the pack house, Chadwick was waiting with his mother. My heart sank. This may be my life but my heart, the part I thought was broken, craved the life I could have had with Evie. I know that makes me a sick son of a b**ch. I love my son and mate but she wasnât my fated mate.

âWhat are you going to tell them?â Wes questioned, as I stared at my son and mate.
âNothing and neither are you. No one is to say a word about what happened, only that a few of his warriors are coming tomorrow.â I ordered.
âI may not understand what you are going through but Iâm here if you need to talk.â I nodded before taking a deep breath. I then got out of the vehicle to greet my family.
