Cursed By The Moon Goddess.

Chapter 25

Third person POV

"Must be one hell of a guy to make you feel like this " the young female barkeeper commented as she passed an already drunk Evelyn the sixth glass of whiskey that she had requested for.
"Yeah he is. How did you know? "
"I've been working here for a very long time, I know them when I see them. Is he your mate or just your boyfriend? "
"Well he.. uh" she started tapping her temple "I don't know, he doesn't act like either " she finished with a shrug, twirling the liquid in her glass.
"But you love him "
Evelyn leaned forward motioning the barkeeper to come closer.
"I don't even know "she whispered winking at the barkeeper like she just revealed a top secret and sipped her drink.
"If what he did is hurting you so much, it only means that you love him "
Evelyn stared at the girl in front of her like she just grew a beard before she burst into laughter.
The barkeeper only stared at her in confusion.
She stopped abruptly, her brows creased in confusion.
"If that is true, it only means that I'm done for. He doesn't even like seeing me. " She burst into tears, dropping her head on the table.
The barkeeper only shook her head at the sight in front of her.
Thank God, the blasting music left both of them unnoticed.
This has been the worst broken heart scenario she had encountered since she took up the job.
"You know what? Instead of trying to commit suicide by drinking, why not dance or sing." Evelyn looked up at her, her eyes puffy and red. "I'm serious. It works, just trying dancing or singing like there's no tomorrow and you'll forget about him in no time " she persuaded.
"You are right. Time to forget about that good for nothing asshole. I owe you one"
She grabbed the bottle on the table and staggered to the dance floor.

Adonis walked into Lola's place, the place vibrating with the extra loud music.
Moving straight to the bar, he tapped on the table multiple times on the table to get the barkeeper's attention.
"Alpha? " she was surprised to see him there. "What brings you here? Should I get you something? "
"Don't bother, I'm looking for a young lady, early twenties, thick black hair. "
"Is she your girlfriend? One came in today, she wasn't looking good " she explained wondering if the alpha was the heartless guy being referred to.
"She's not my girlfriend, she just has something I want " he replied curtly.
"Okay, is she the one over there?"
His eyes followed her finger as she pointed to the dance floor.
His jaw almost hit the floor.
What the heck is she wearing?!

Evelyn was feeling on top of the world, she was dancing like her life depended on it not for once letting go of the bottle. Her equally drunk partner was currently was in the heavens.
I mean it's not every time you get a pretty woman to dance with...
His line of thought was permanently disabled when a quick shove in the opposite direction  sent him reeling.
"What the.. " he sputtered as he struggled to regain his composure. He rushed forward to attack the offender when he discovered that his attacker was already at the exit with a raging woman slung across his shoulder.
Alpha?

"Put me down this instant or I will cause a scene! " Evelyn yelled, pounding his back with her left hand and holding unto the bottle with her right.
As soon as her feet hit the ground with force, she staggered into him struggling to regain her stance.
"I didn't ask you to break my legs you stork! " she spoke into his chest.
"Get into the car" he ordered quietly trying to push her away.
"You don't order me around and I'm not going anywhere until you explain why you ruined my party" she persisted poking his chest with her index finger.
"That will be the first thing I'll do as soon as we get home, I promise " his voice dripped with venom that made Evelyn cringe.
Changing her mind, she opened the door and got into the car. Moving to the driver's side,  he got in and drove off without saying another word.

The ride to the pack house was a silent one. Evelyn exited the car as soon as they arrived, zooming through the door neglecting Adonis calling out to her.
She banged the room with all her might
Just who does he think he is?! Ruining my night after breaking my heart!! The irritating...
"What the hell was that?! " Adonis roared as he pushed into the room. " Are you not satisfied with irritating me at home, you had to take it outside! You want to ruin me right! " his orbs glared hard at her as he shook with anger, but all these had no single effect on Eve as she glared right back.
"I don't remember asking you to come get me, I was perfectly fine!  I don't need an egotistic, arrogant thorn in the flesh at my tail"
"What did you call me?" he asked coming dangerously close to her.
She tried to conceal the fear that rose in her
"You heard me right, you uncaring being! "
"Don't push me Evelyn " he growled.
"What? Wanna punish me.. daddy? You selfish bas..."
She was cut off as he came crashing his lips down on hers. She tried squirming, but he held her tightly.
Against good reasoning, she relaxed and leaned into the kiss.
She moaned softly as he slid his tongue into her mouth. Both tongue fought for dominance before Adonis' lips left hers and trailed a path down to her neck.
She threw her head backwards in reflex action.
He licked a spot on her shoulder and gave a huge growl before stepping away from her.
"What? " she asked feeling frustrated.
"I can't do this, not like this " he walked out of the room leaving behind a confused and angry Evelyn.
"Do what? " she asked silently. Then it dawned on her.
He wanted to mark her.
