"Once I orchestrate my own death, and Dante comes to mourn my supposed loss, I can strip him of his pack title and his considerable wealth. After all, he revels in the role of the heartbroken lover. And once I'm gone, Natalia will finally cease her relentless pursuit, allowing Rowan to back off.
It's been nothing short of a nuisance having her constantly surveilling my every move." Her eyes sparkled with a chilling brilliance, a glint of cold ambition. "And the best part? When Dante arrives in Crisantia, Natalia-who has always craved his wealth and status-will end up with nothing." A triumphant triple victory, she mused to herself. Yet, to execute this elaborate ruse of death, she would require an ally. After much contemplation, she decided to enlist Caden's assistance. "So, you want me to create a scenario where it appears as though someone has taken your life...
without actually causing you any harm?" Caden's brow arched, a flicker of surprise crossing his features. Evelyn nodded, her expression revealing nothing but determination. She laid out the events of the past few months, each detail flowing from her lips as if she were recounting a tale that didn't belong to her. As she recounted her story, her voice remained devoid of any overt emotion, as if she were narrating the misfortunes of a stranger. "I want to cut all ties with these people and the chaos they bring into my life for good, but I refuse to let them off the hook so easily.
Faking my death is the most advantageous route for me." Caden regarded his mate with a mix of admiration and concern. Evelyn might not even be aware of it, but there was a subtle fragility that clung to her now, an air of vulnerability that stirred an instinct to protect her within him. He averted his gaze, focusing intently on the situation before them, analyzing every angle. "Logically speaking, drowning would be the simplest way to stage a death, but given the recent events, I doubt you'll be visiting the beach anytime soon. Plummeting off a cliff is far too perilous.

I propose we stage a car accident instead." "A car accident?" Evelyn's brow furrowed, her mind racing as she considered the implications of his suggestion. After a moment's thought, she found herself agreeing with Caden's plan. She had been meticulously navigating between three primary locations lately, always on high alert. Rowan had limited chances to strike against her, but tampering with her car was indeed the most straightforward method he could employ. **Chapter 15** 90.30% However... "How do we entice him to tamper with my car?" A mischievous grin spread across Caden's face.
"Leave that part to me." Evelyn felt a wave of gratitude wash over her as she thanked Caden for his willingness to help. The following afternoon, Rowan found himself unable to make a move against Evelyn. He drove straight back to his apartment, parked his vehicle, and decided to grab a bite at a nearby diner to quell his growing hunger. After placing his order, two men wearing blue hats strode into the restaurant, making their way directly to his table.
The two men bore an uncanny resemblance, like brothers forged from the same mold-tall, muscular, and adorned with large tattoos that snaked around their wrists and necks. From both afar and near, they certainly didn't exude an aura of trustworthiness. Rowan caught a whiff of their scent, which they were attempting to mask, but his keen senses detected the faintest trace-they were rouges, unmistakably. They settled at a table adjacent to his, casually tossing a bag containing a wrench onto the chair beside them, their voices low and conspiratorial.
"This job will keep us fed for half a year," the older man, Killian, declared, cracking open a beer and downing it in one go. The younger man, Theo, who was nearing twenty-eight, rolled up his sleeves and clinked his beer bottle against Killian's, speaking in a relaxed tone, "The car's been tampered with, and with the rain today, that guy is bound to get himself into an accident." After a brief pause, he shook his head, a cynical smile creeping onto his lips. "Never trust a stepfather. They play nice until the kid turns eighteen and gets a license...
then bam!" Rowan's sharp blue eyes narrowed, a plan beginning to take shape in his mind. His curiosity burned within him, yet he couldn't find a way to approach them without raising suspicion. Killian squinted, then dropped another bombshell that piqued Rowan's interest: "If it weren't for these people, where would we be making money?" Theo nodded in agreement, a sneer forming on his lips, "The more of these bastards that exist, the better for us. A few more jobs like this, and we can retire comfortably." At that moment, Rowan could no longer remain seated.
He stood up, striding confidently over to their table, a smile plastered across his face as he sought to initiate a conversation. "Hey, fellas, lunch is on me. I've got something I'd like to discuss." Killian's eyes narrowed, suspicion etched across his face, his tone turning icy. "Do we know each other?" Rowan shook his head, a sheepish grin breaking through. "No, but they say chance encounters are fate. You're already taking on one job-what's one more? I promise to make it worth your while." His smile widened, confidence radiating from him.
"I'll double what the last guy paid you." Killian and Theo exchanged glances, their expressions shifting as they weighed the offer. Killian frowned, but after a few seconds of contemplation, he gritted his teeth in agreement. "Fine, deal! Money's money!" A sigh of relief escaped Rowan's lips as he clinked beer bottles with the men, sitting down to share a few more moments of conversation. After half an hour, he pulled out a picture of Evelyn, showing it to them with satisfaction before taking his leave. As soon as Rowan stepped out of the diner, Killian wasted no time.
He exited the establishment and climbed into his car. Immediately, he dialed Caden, his voice steady as he reported, "Alpha, Rowan took the bait." **Chapter 16** Conclusion In the culmination of Evelyn's calculated scheme, the weight of her ambition hung heavily in the air, mingling with the bittersweet realization of the sacrifices she had to make. As she prepared to orchestrate her own demise, a part of her felt an undeniable ache, a flicker of doubt that whispered of the emotional toll this ruse would take.
The very act of severing ties with those who had plagued her existence was a necessary evil, yet the shadows of loss loomed ominously over her heart. Caden's unwavering support provided a glimmer of solace, a reminder that even the most intricate plans could not erase the vulnerability that lay beneath her steely facade. With every step she took toward her goal, the lines between victory and sacrifice blurred, leaving her to grapple with the haunting question of whether the end truly justified the means.
Meanwhile, Rowan's instinctual drive to protect Evelyn ignited a newfound determination within him, propelling him into a web of deception that would ultimately intertwine their fates. His encounter with the rogues marked a turning point, a moment where the stakes escalated beyond mere survival into a desperate race against time. As he navigated the treacherous waters of loyalty and betrayal, the urgency of his mission crystallized: to shield Evelyn from the very chaos she sought to escape.
With Caden's assistance, the stage is set for a dangerous game of deception that could change the dynamics of power among the pack. As Rowan unwittingly becomes entangled in their web of intrigue, the stakes rise higher than ever. Will Evelyn's ruse succeed in severing her ties with those who threaten her? Or will her carefully laid plans unravel, exposing her to the very dangers she seeks to escape? Moreover, the introduction of Killian and Theo adds an unexpected layer of complexity to the narrative.
Their motives and loyalties remain shrouded in mystery, leaving readers on edge as they ponder how these new players will influence the unfolding drama. As Rowan aligns himself with these rogues, questions arise: What are their true intentions? How will they react when they learn the full extent of Evelyn's deception?
