Avery My face betrayed no emotion as James continued. “Since she’s pregnant, I have to marry her, or else the child would be a bastard.” He explained. I wanted to laugh and cry at the same time. Lizzy was pregnant? He got her pregnant after years of refusing to have a child with me? “I thought you weren’t ready to have kids. When I told you I wanted to start a family, you refused because you weren’t ready. Now you want kids with her?!” James closed his eyes as the look of guilt covered his face. “I didn’t mean for it to happen Avery. We some how got lost in the moment and it just ...happened. Please believe me, I wanted to start a family with both of you in the future, maybe next year. Not now.” He explained and I burst out laughing. “So let me get this straight, you were planning to get i and my sister pregnant at the same time?!” I yelled and he froze. This was hilarious to me. How had I never realized that my husband was a sick twisted asshole? Did love blind me
JamesI had a nightmare. A masked man was dragging my wife away from me. Avery was screaming my name and trying to hold my hand. I was trying to run to her, but someone who’s face I couldn’t see kept dragging me back.“Avery! Avery!” I kept screaming in fear, but my wife was disappearing before my very eyes.“Avery!” I screamed as I jumped awake.“Nephew, You’re awake!” I looked up to see Uncle Luther looking down at me with a worried frown.I felt dizzy as my memories started to flood my mind. I remember that we were attacked by northern men, and they had overpowered me before I blacked out.But what happened to my wife?“Uncle? Where’s my wife?” I asked and Lizzy suddenly appeared and rushed to hug me.“I’m here baby. You were passed out for hours, I was so scared.” She cried against my shoulder.I pulled away from her and frowned. “Where’s my wife?” I asked again as the nightmare replayed in my mind. “Where’s Avery?” I added for clarity but Lizzy looked away.“Nephew maybe you sho
Avery I didn’t know what I expected the northern kingdom to look like, but it was certainly not this. When I thought about Alpha Kane, I pictured dirty, old, dark, depressing castles that resembled dungeons. I never expected state of the art architecture or beautiful blooming flowers everywhere. The castle itself was majestic. Tall and proud, not flashy, yet it commanded attention and respect. Everything looked and smelt of wealth. We were led into what looked like a waiting room and forced to line up with our heads bowed. All of us were hand cuffed, but the men tied me up in another set of silver chains because of my earlier stunt with Greyson’s nose. I looked at Greyson’s bruised nose and smirked. I was very proud of my self. A man walked in, and from the sound of his steps, I realized that he was tall and confident… most probably someone important. I took a peek at him and realized I was right. He was dressed like a high ranking warrior.. most likely the gamma, but
Jame’s POV It had been almost 24 hours since my wife had been taken from me. I had already shared the good news of her being alive to the pack, but I had barely slept and I had not left her room the whole time. It still smelt like her and I wanted her presence around me while I made my rescue plans. Lizzy had knocked on the door several times asking me to come out but I ignored her. She even brought my meals to the front of the door but I refused to open it. How could I eat when I wasn’t sure that my Avery had eaten? Was she alright? Was she injured? Did they try to sleep with her?! I felt hot rage pile up in my throat at that thought. No! I couldn’t let myself dwell on such thoughts, they would only make me too emotional to think clearly. And besides, I was sure that they had not done anything sexual to her, because if they had, I would know, I would feel it through my mating bond, and it would hurt like a mother fucker. Dread filled my gut as I imagined experi
Avery POV “What are you doing?!” I yelled as I watched Alpha Kane start to unbutton the sleeves of his shirt. He had already thrown his Jacket and gloves on my bed, and he continued to strip, despite my mounting panic. To make matters worse, the king stayed quiet, but his eyes stayed focused on me. He was watching me like I was some prey that he wanted to devour. I felt the hairs on the back of my neck rise in warning. He took a step forward and my heart sized. “Stay back!” I yelled but he ignored me and took another step forward. There was no where to run to, his large body was blocking the door and the windows had bars on them. My heart began to pound in my chest. Was he trying to have sex with me right now? As if to answer my question, he looked me right in the eye, and started unbuttoning his shirt. My eyes darted to the left and to the right, but there was no way out. If I tried to scream, who would even try to save me? I was immediately snapped out of m
Avery’s POVI woke up with a surprising jolt of excitement, which I had not expected. Maybe I was just eager to see worth life had the north had in store for me."Or maybe someone's eager to see a certain tall handsome king by the name of Alpha Kane today," Lea my wolf teased.I felt my cheeks heat up. "Shut up," I muttered. But she wasn’t wrong though. There was something about Alpha Kane that stirred something inside me, something I couldn't quite place. I just felt warm and fuzzy whenever he’s near.And when he touched me… oh goddess, when he pressed me up against the wall last night, it felt like my body was burning for something… an ache I needed to feel. It was all very confusing.I had never felt that way with James before, and I wondered if he felt that way about Lizzy.When I thought about them, my heart soured. They were probably fucking right now. Lizzy must have thrown a party when I was kidnapped.And I’m sure that James did not hesitate to make her his Luna and replace
James POV It’s been a week since Alpha Kane took my wife from me. My eyes drifted to the weapons I'd been quietly gathering for the battle that I knew was coming, when Dorian succeeded in bringing my wife home. I couldn’t afford to lose her again. Not after everything we’d been through. But as focused as I'd been on preparing for that fight, I'd been ignoring another fight outside my door. Lizzy had been upset for days now. She has been throwing tantrums, yelling at me, and sometimes just crying because she felt that I wasn’t paying attention to her. “Avery is gone.” She would shout at me. “You need to let her go. That’s what She would have wanted. She would have wanted you to be happy with me." She always yelled but I didn’t believe her. I could clearly remember the look of hurt and betrayal on Avery’s face the day I told her that Lizzy was pregnant. She looked like she wanted to die. I can’t let that be the last memory I have of her. I have to get her back. Liz
Avery’s POV It's been a week since Alpha Kane received that letter from Dorian. I remember that because he's been avoiding me ever since and It's driving me crazy. Sure, we still eat together, but I feel like he intentionally avoids talking to me or even touching me, which is the very opposite of how he was before the letter. Before the letter, he always looked like he was two seconds away from ripping my clothes, but now, I would be lucky to even get a glance from him… and it was maddening. What had changed? To make matters worse, I was always seeing him with Sophie— that brat who tried to challenge me on the first day. I always saw her going into his room at night or walking out of it in the morning. I already knew what they were doing, but that little brat made it a point of rubbing it in my face every time I saw her. Unfortunately for me, I was the only one experiencing this. Marie and Greyson were all over eachother every second of the day. Sometimes I worr
