"I know I messed up, Aveline. But I love you, I've always do. Please, give me a second chance to prove it to you. I regret everything I did and I'm ready to make it up to you," Alpha Draven wouldn't stop begging. "What made you think you can come here again? Listen, I don't want to see you near me. So leave!" I was fuming, but I kept calm as I spoke. ***** Working aside the Alpha as a secretary and also his secret girlfriend, Aveline finds out that she was in a one-way mating bond with the Alpha. Aveline's world came crashing down when Alpha Draven's true mate, Emily, returned, and she realized she was nothing more than a disposable sex toy to the Alpha. The devastating blow only worsened when Aveline discovered she was pregnant with Draven's child, only to be forced to terminate the pregnancy against her will. Heartbroken and betrayed, Aveline resigns from her position and vanishes, vowing to seek revenge for the cruel way she had been treated. Alpha Draven is devastated to learn that Emily had lied to him about everything, and he realizes too late that he had truly loved Aveline all along. Determined to win Aveline back, Draven refuses to give up, but Aveline is no longer willing to have anything to do with him. Now, Draven must convince Aveline that his love for her is genuine and that he is willing to do anything to make her his once more. Will Aveline give him a second chance, or will she choose to move on with her new-found love?

She looked like she'd seen a ghost or was probably in a nightmare. With a confused face, she looked around the hall, trying to comprehend the strange news that was dished.The moderator continued to acknowledge more prominent people in the meeting but Emily didn't move an inch from where she sat. Her gaze pinned on me.After years of seeing her, I knew that she was going to be at the conference and a part of me was anxious about seeing her. Thinking about the possible outcome of our meeting.Thinking about how pretty she would probably be looking especially as someone who hadn't gone through the kind of stress I did these past few years. But seeing her that day, I knew that there was no way I could be compared to her. She looked basic. And I was just not about basics anymore. The event
AvelineI held Kade by his wrist and dragged him to a corner in the huge room. "What do you mean by Draven Harrington?"He slowly removed my hand from his wrist and smiled. "You kept on refusing to meet with his company, why?"My hands were across my chest and I sighed, Kade's gaze still fixed on me, he was obviously waiting for an answer. An answer that he might never get. "It's been three years Ms Nova," he smoothed his hair by pushing it backward slowly. "Three years." "Are you sure it's three?" I let out a light chuckle. He heaved a frustrated sigh. "Yes, three. They are not as successful as they used to be about four to five years ago but we can benefit from them also." I sat by the edge of the long table in the meeting room and my eyes were fixed on the floor. "I thought they said I was able to do nothing without the help of those bitches." I felt my finger going into my palm. "What did you say?" Kade pulled me out of my thoughts and I just lifted the corner of my lips. "U
AvelineSlowly, I turned to the woman but her gaze was not even on me. She packed the trays and other items before turning to take her leave. "Thank you, ma'am," I managed to voice out, and she turned to me. "You're welcome," she spoke in a calm tone. With that, she took her leave from the room after she and Lucas exchanged a smile. "How did I get here?" My face was etched with worry. I looked at the child in my hands; she had fallen asleep. Lucas walked further into the room with his hands in his pocket and he sat down on a metal chair close to the bed. "Did you have any idea where you were before I came to save you?" "I do remember that I was surrounded by some thugs," my words were slow but steady. "I passed out…too quick."He nodded slowly. "You were unconscious when I found you." "How did you know where I was?" My curiosity piqued the more I threw questions at him. "Were you tailing me?"A silent chuckle escaped his lips and he brought out his phone before handing it to me
AvelineMy eyes widened and a gasp escaped my lips. This was not the time I was supposed to give birth, not in this kind of situation…not in this kind of place…not even in the midst of these bastards. I swiftly turned my face sideways; even after they saw the water rolling down my legs, they still had an indifferent look on their faces. "Trust me we don't give a fuck about what is happening to you right now," it came from my left side, and I turned to him. He seemed like their boss if we were to place them by their body size. His eyes were deadly, so was his face, and he had a scar just under his right eye. "Yeah, we don't!" Another one from my right-hand side barked. I was surrounded. 'What…what do you think we should do?' I heard my wolf stutter. She could not hide her fear. Neither could I, but there was nothing I could do; I didn't know what might happen to the baby if I messed up, so I just stood in a particular spot. "Please," I was barely able to find my voice but they
Aveline "You look beautiful." He remarked, taking a seat opposite me."What will you like? The cheeseburger here bangs. I recommend that." He said, looking back at the menu.I was still trying to recover from him pulling out the chair for me before he hit me with a compliment I'd only heard from my friend for the past nine years."So, what are you doing now? Did you get a job elsewhere?" He asked after we placed our orders."Nothing yet, for now, it's hard getting a job around here with this big bump," I said, laughing at myself but he wasn't amused.I could see the sympathetic look on his face."Is there anything you'd like to do?" He asked again, making me lose the smile on my face.Thinking about all the dreams and plans I'd had before finding out that I was still pregnant, it felt like a bad memory but I shrugged it off."I wanted to own my own business, my empire. Satisfying the needs of the public while making enough money in the process." I replied with a distant smile on my f
AvelineThe next day, I woke up with hunger from not eating as well as I should have the previous day.Pushing myself to my feet, I slowly made my way to the kitchen I searched for anything I could munch on before going to the supermarket and I thanked the stars for one apple left in the fridge.Munching on the apple with relish, I changed from my pajamas and brushed my teeth before going grocery shopping and, the baby shower photos.I got thinking about what Sabrina said to me the previous day and she was right. I let my bad experiences cloud the beautiful gift I'd been given was one that would hurt me in the future.I felt the baby move and I smiled to myself, it must've heard my thoughts and agreed with my resolve to leave the past behind and move forward starting now.After a few minutes of walking to the grocery store, I got there and went shopping. Picking up a cart, I strolled down each role in search of what would be needed to keep me going for at least a month and by the time
AvelineI settled for a bag of chips and a cold milk from the fridge. I was so tired and famished and I felt like if I didn't satisfy my hunger at this moment, I'd join my ancestors with the moon goddess. I couldn't tell if it was the growing child in my womb or the stress and frustration from work, but I felt like I could eat a full house. Munching on the chips like I'd stolen them and gulping the milk with satisfaction, I found myself thinking about Draven.What he would be doing by that time, if he was still with Emily if Sophie was still as sassy as before and if they'd found someone else to continue their evil on..A sad smile crossed my face and I shook my head in regret of the many years I'd spent wasting off with Draven, working like a slave and treated like one indeed but not receiving any reward in return.Speaking of rewards, I was supposed to receive a hundred thousand dollars after the contract was completed but I didn't have the mind to tell him about it.Hell, I was to
AvelineFor months of working in this place, life has taught me a lot of lessons. I got rejected about eight times before settling for a job with lesser pay, but even at that, I was insulted a lot of times. There were times when I would want to yell and times when I would want to shove a pen into one of their eyes, but I just held back all the time. Every Saturday, I visit the doctor and he keeps singing a particular anthem to me time and time again. He would say: reduce your work stress so it would not affect your child, you can even stop work if you have to. In the midst of those struggles, I was most grateful to Brad and Sabrina, who kept on calling me day after day. "You need to do some training because you are not even qualified to work here you twat!" I gasped in shock when he barked in a rude tone. Another one of the customers dragged the item he bought from me in an angry way. "I'm sorry, I had to make sure the money was complete before handing it to you, and since it w
AvelineThe storm was not over yet, it was something no one needed to tell me. As long as I'm still breathing, I would make any sacrifice for the child in me. As I sat on the couch, my hand gently resting on my stomach, I felt a surge of determination course through my veins. The memory of Sabrina's words echoed in my mind, a poignant reminder of the unwavering commitment I had made to the tiny life growing within me.With my lips pressed together in a resolute line, I steeled myself for the challenges that lay ahead. The weight of responsibility, the uncertainty of the future, and the sheer magnitude of the sacrifices I would need to make all seemed to fade into the background as I focused on the singular truth that drove me forward: I would do everything in my power to give this child the best possible life.My phone rang, and I checked who it was, it was Brad this time, and I picked the call up. "Hey, I'm back." My voice was barely above a whisper. I heard a chuckle from the end
An average person hates Monday mornings, but I have hated my life for the past seven years. Sitting in the back of the car, I clasped my palms together, rubbing them absently in a vain attempt to warm the cold dread crawling up my spine. But no amount of heat could ever thaw the ice that had settled in my heart over the past seven years.It's funny how time doesn't wait for you to heal and how it didn't wait for me to outgrow the scars that came from harmless wishful thinking. I shrugged and looked outside the window at the skyline of the bustling city and the most magnificent building in the whole country where I worked. But I am far from excited. I will soon be standing before “...the very face that ruined my life without even realising it, by never looking at me the way I wished.“Which spot in the VIP parking lot, is yours, Ma'am, the middle one”“No,” I screamed in response to my new driver, my eyes widening in shock. “Turn in the other direction,” I raised my hand and pointed....
