Lycan's Prey by Jessica Hall
Chapter 268
Chapter 19
Everly POV
I watch Zoe blow out her candles. Today is her 21st birthday, and I feel blessed to call her one of my best friends. She is more like a sister to me. Zoe and Macey fill the places where my family should have been, but now I am happy with how far we all have come. We didn’t need anyone; we only needed each other.
“Happy 21st,” I whisper to her, giving her a hug after setting the cake down.
“Oh, we need napkins,” I tell Zoe before rushing off back to the kitchen. I go into the storeroom, grabbing a box of refills down and pulling a handful out before placing the box on the shelf. Just as I walk back out, Zoe rushes into the kitchen, her face pale, and a look of horror on her face. She smacks straight into me before grabbing my arms.
“What is it? What happened?” I ask her, looking around for what scared her. When she didn’t answer, I went to walk past her to investigate myself. It must be bad for her to not be able to tell me. Zoe feared nothing these days, she had come out of her shell, but something happened for her to be such a
nervous wreck.
“You can’t go out there,” she blurts, gripping my arms and pulling me away from the door just as I was about to step out

into the Restaurant. I hear Macey talking behind me in the
restaurant.
“Sir, you can’t go back there,” I hear her call to someone.
“What happened?” I ask her.
“Zoe?” I grip her arms when her eyes go wide as she stares over my shoulder. I get the strange feeling that who she feared is right behind me. I stand up straight, his scent wafting to me, and Zoe’s eyes dart to mine.
My face must mirror the same horror hers do because she grabs my hands, squeezing them tight. I close my eyes, willing myself to not break. He will not break me. He does that nearly every night, and somehow, I’ve learned to live with it. I won’t give him the satisfaction of seeing it.
“Your name is Everly, right?” he says, his voice soft and
serious.
I fight the urge to shiver hearing his voice. Fucking mate bond, it’s bad enough it tortures me; why does it have to affect me this way, every piece of me wanting to throw myself in his arms despite the fact he nearly ruined me. The bond wants that, not me. I am in control, I fought it this long, and I didn’t work this hard for everything to unravel right now.
“Yes, how may I help you, Alpha Valen?” I ask, turning around. My lungs compress at the sight of him, he was gorgeous, and

he fucking knew he was, which just enraged me. Tall, dark, and handsome. What is it with men? They grow older, manlier, and more handsome while women just fucking age? Damn, my inner monologue is out of whack today. Fuck was taking up a good chunk of my vocabulary.
“You know my name and who I am?” he asks.
“I also know what you are too, so how may I help you?” I ask him. I am impressed with how calm I sound, despite screaming internally and wanting to run.
He blows out a breath and runs a hand through his hair before scratching his neck. He looks back out to the restaurant.
“How old are you?” he asks.
