The War God Alpha’s Arranged Bride Novel

---- Chapter 141 [Evelyn's POV] My Evelyn, | hope that when you are reading this you are safely on your way back to your family's pack. You needed to know, from me, that | could not be more impressed and proud of the act you were able to display back at my office. You make me realize just how devoted and committed you are to this pack as well as myself. This plan we concocted together could not have been successful without you. Although I'm confident that we have succeeded in our venture, I'm also deeply bothered.

| don't like the fact that I'm not with you right now, nor do | like the fact that | didn't even get a chance to properly say goodbye to you. | had to take a short break to allow my mind to process the words that were in front of me. Honestly, my comprehension became insanely questionable the moment | read the first two. words of Alexander's letter. 'My Evelyn'. Just seeing those words together did something to my insides that caused an overpowering surge of heat to course through ---- me. It was like taking a peek into Alexander's subconscious Was that how he saw me?

In his mind, was | really his? Given the recent events, it should have probably bothered me rather than appealed to me. Part of me wasn't too keen on the idea of being owned by someone-even if that someone happened to be my husband. Then again...The other part of me saw it as rather thrilling. The primitive side of me felt secure in knowing that | was wanted and coveted by someone. It made me feel...special. The warm, heartfelt buzz that radiated through my body was slowly replaced with a subtle pain. | hadn't gotten the chance to see Alexander before Wendy and | made our way off.

And | wasn't sure if it bothered me or not. My heart clenched in my chest as | read on. ..What truly bothers me about this situation is that there was never a specific timeline set in place. While Oliver and | anticipate being away for no more than two or three days, there was never any discussion when it came to your predicted time away. Of course, with your brother not being well, | cannot hold you to any sort of expectation. Part of my reasoning for having Wendy travel with you is while you're busy caring for your brother, she will be acting as my eyes and ears.

---- Please understand, as much as | care for you | do not hold your family in the same high regard. | don't trust them. You being in that house is enough to make me worry. | know that you are fully capable of taking care of yourself, but please be vigilant. The moment you feel as though something is wrong, you are to reach out to me directly. If something should happen while your brother is still not well, then | will happily have him moved into the manor where then at least | know the two of you will both be safe... There was no stopping the tears that prickled in the corners of my eyes.

| truly hadn't expected something like this Simply knowing that Alexander was concerned for my well- being was enough to make me smile, but to know that he was willing to accept Edward into his home brought me to a whole other level. | had half a mind to tell the driver to turn the car right back around just so that | could find Alexander and throw my arms around him. Knowing that he was ready for the possible chance of having to accept my brother into his life gave a resurgence for those feelings | buried prior to all of this. He reminded me why I began to fall for him in the first place.

| had believed that deep down, Alexander was a caring person. Granted, a lot of those thoughts were pure speculation at times. ---- But the more he was willing to let me get closer, the more | was able to see it.
