Aveline

As I walked into the building, a sense of unease washed over me, but I looked back and saw the guards coming behind me, and a sigh of relief escaped my lips.

'Don't tell me you are afraid,' V whispered to me, but I shook my head.

'Not afraid, just uneasy.' I said while rolling my eyes in the process. There was nothing to be scared of, not even Beatrice nor Draven, and the same goes for Sophie and Emily. Every one of them.

"You stay at the door when I get in okay?" I said without turning back to them and they all chorused.

"Yes, ma."

"She's the one."

"She's the CEO of Nova Empire I can't believe." I heard voices from different angles and my forehead knitted.

"Who are you here for ma'am?" The receptionist made me pause in my tracks, and I turned to her with a smile, and immediately I did, I noticed the shock on her face.

With an arched brow, I asked. "Do you still want to know who I am?" She shook her head and averted her gaze from mine. "You would get used to me in your

    Aveline"Be…Beatrice's bag?" I stuttered. Beatrice threatened me in my own office and now I was in the office of her son. That gives her the upper hand in a lot of ways in which was not looking good to me. No, there are people outside, people that are heavily guarding me. One word from me, and they would barge into this place, so I was good…there was nothing to panic about. 'Do not show them that you are not feeling good here, Aveline, you just have to be yourself,' I whispered to myself, and a smile was plastered on my face."Hey," Draven's voice pulled me back to reality and I checked my wristwatch. I was supposed to be here this long; Beatrice's arrival would only be like salt that was added to a wound. "Do you have a problem with that?" His question made me turn in the direction of the bag. That was where he pointed to anyway. "No, I don't." I gave him an answer almost immediately. "I don't think we should be this casual considering the fact that it is only business that is be

    DravenDraven walked out of the building and the look he had on his face showed how shocked he was after he saw Kade leaning on Aveline's car. "Hi." Kade waved to him with a smile on his face. "I think we've met before." He took off his dark shades but the smile was not off his face. The former nodded at what the latter said. "Yeah, Kade Pierce." Aveline constantly switched gazes from Draven to Kade, the only difference was the way she looked at them. She seemed to be shocked at Kade's coming and she was annoyed whenever she looked at the former. "Can you guys tell what the fuck is going on here?" Aveline demanded as he shielded her eyes from the sun with the back of her palm. Without sparing any of them a glance, she turned to leave when Draven held her wrist, but the guards pushed him back. "Leave him," Aveline muttered. "I should hear what he wants to say.""I can't talk here," Draven heaved a sigh after looking at each one of Aveline's bodyguards. "We both know this is someth

    AvelineMy gaze remained fixed on Kade, my mind replaying the events that had transpired just moments before. The memory of his actions was etched vividly in my mind, and I couldn't help but wonder what had driven him to behave in such a way. The look on his face had been a mixture of determination and defiance, his eyes flashing with a fierce intensity as he stood his ground against Draven.As I continued to study Kade's expression, I couldn't help but ask, "Why did you do it?" My voice was barely above a whisper, but Kade's response was immediate. He shrugged, a small smile playing on his lips as he replied, "I just thought it was the right thing to do."I searched his face for any sign of regret or hesitation, but there was none. His voice was firm and resolute, his words laced with a conviction that was both admirable and unsettling. "He kept questioning you, and I didn't like it," Kade added, his eyes never leaving mine.I held his gaze for a long, tense moment, my mind racing wi

    DravenDraven stared at the ceiling with his hands crossed above his chest, he enjoyed the silence after Beatrice questioned him, but the impatience in Beatrice's face only became stronger at each second that went by. If it was any other question he might have given an answer to it but the look of surprise that masked his face showed that the possibility of getting an answer to that question was more of a forty to sixty. Beatrice began to tap her foot on the floor since she had ran out of patience already, it could be said that even a pang was not in her again she was pushed to speak up."So are you going to give me an answer to that question?" She just had to voice out since she knew that she won't be getting an answer if she stayed mute. Draven turned to her with a hardened jaw."You showed up just to question me today right?"He demanded in a very firm tone but Beatrice shook her head sideways in a clear disagreement to what he said. "I just came to clear my mind off some things

    DravenDraven arched an eyebrow immediately, his eyes moving in the direction of the cops that were behind Emily. "And you guys are here for?" Beatrice whose voice was completely infused with fear. "Above all, did you think coming here uninvited is something that is acceptable to us?" "I'm sorry, ma'am, but I think we need to ask some questions." One of the cops said in an apologetic tone. "And after that, we think we can let her go." "You could place a call and—-""Fine, go on with your question," Draven interrupted Beatrice while motioning his hand to the cop who had talked earlier. "But as you all know, I'm a busy person so be quick with what you wanna ask." "Thank you," he turned to Beatrice and her eyes widened in fear. Emily could have done something stupid already and the fear was in her face. Draven, on the other hand, remained focused. "Do you have something to ask me," Beatrice held her hand that had started to fidget, and immediately she looked at Emily. The latter sho

    AvelineDays had passed since the incident with Draven, and an unsettling silence had fallen over me. No calls, no threats from Beatrice – it was as if they had vanished into thin air. I couldn't help but feel a sense of relief wash over me. Their victory, if you could even call it that, was short-lived. I was still bagging contracts, still succeeding despite their best efforts to bring me down.The sound of a soft knock on my door broke the silence, and I made my way over to answer it. Ever since Beatrice's uninvited visits, I had taken to locking my door, a habit I couldn't seem to shake. I half-opened the door to find Kade standing in the hallway, a wave of surprise crossing his face before he quickly composed himself."Hey," he said, his voice low and smooth.I smiled, feeling a sense of comfort in his presence. "Hey," I replied, pushing the door open wider to let him in.Kade walked into the office, his eyes scanning the room before coming to rest on me. "Well, I thought I'd be s

    AvelineThe door to my room creaked open, and I saw Sabrina walk into it with her hands behind her; every step she took was followed by her intense gaze that was completely fixed on me. Nothing else in the room other than me. "So who's the lucky person this time?" She asked in a curiosity laced tone which made me turn from the huge mirror at my front. "Or is it still Draven Harrington?" "Could you call his name without adding the 'Harrington' Please?" I picked up the silver necklace from a box that was placed by the side of the mirror. "That surname makes me remember things I don't want to." She finally strode to my back and wore the necklace for me before walking to my side close to the mirror. "But he is the one right?" "No," we exchanged gazes as I wore my silver stiletto, which matched the silver gown and silver necklace I wore, and finally, I picked up my bag before placing my hands on Sabrina's shoulder. "It's Kade Pierce," the confused expression she had on her face whisp

    Draven"What do you mean by there's a traitor in our midst?!" Beatrice's voice was in rhythm with the shutting sound of the door. "All because of some kind of bullshit Aveline caused, you are starting to think there's a traitor here; who the fuck does that?!" She raised her voice to a deafening level. Draven sighed heavily and paced around the room with his hands in his pocket. You could see he was fuming greatly, but he suppressed it with constant sighs. "Maybe it's me." He looked at Beatrice in the eye. "I don't understand," she took a step backward with squinted eyes. "Maybe it's you?" She repeated in a confused tone. "Maybe I'm the one that thinks there's a traitor in our midst following what happened in recent days." His voice dropped to a whisper followed by a glance around the room. Beatrice pushed Draven away, her eyes flashing with anger as she strode towards the chair beside his imposing throne-like seat. "Then you should be prepared for what lies ahead," she warned, her

    Aveline The cool breeze and the faint sting I felt at my back forced me to open my eyes and that was when I realized I was in a strange place.I tried to touch my back but the strain on my arm increased the pain."Oww" I winced and looked around the room. It was almost empty. The only things in it were the bed which I lay on and a small table that was empty as well."Where am I?" I asked myself as I looked around the room that had no color to it. The last thing I remembered was being chased by a cheetah and I was saved by someone, a man...I gasped when I recalled that he walked up to me before I lost consciousness and looked around anxiously as if he would appear in the room.I pushed myself up slowly and forced myself to the door.Just as I got out of the door, I saw a lot of children playing in the large compound while the adults busied themselves with one repair or the other. They seemed to be self-reliant. They Made their weapons and even carved their wood."You're awake?" A fe

    JulianSince that night with Kira's incident where Sabrina claimed to be Julian's girlfriend, he found himself treating her with more care in that light.He knew he was not supposed to make friends with the enemy but he didn't see her as the enemy, at least not like he did the first time he walked into Aveline's company during their board meeting. Now, he saw her as his business partner who would also fit well into his girlfriend role.Meanwhile, Sabrina had been trying to distance herself from Julian since that night at the restaurant. Even though she told him not to get ahead of himself when he asked her if she really meant being his girlfriend, she could not get it off her mind.It was the birthday party of one of their potential investors and Julian was able to get tickets for himself and Sabrina.

    Sabrina "So that will be all for today's meeting. You can leave your questions with the secretary and they will be visited in our next meeting." Sabrina addressed the board before taking her seat.Sabrina and Julian had been in a lot of meetings trying to get potential investors who would help boost the company before they even started and they discovered that they are a good team if they want to be. That is, if Sabrina doesn't feel like flexing her devils and if Julian doesn't feel like having a little fun from her frustration. "You did well," Julian said when the hall was almost empty."Thank you," Sabrina replied with a quick smile.She figured that she might need to play along if she wanted to keep him away for long. For the sake of Aveline. "You hungry?" Julian asked and she nodded."It's been a long day.""Indeed. Anything you are craving?" Julian asked."I'm craving some of Aveline's special dishes but I guess I can't have that." Sabrina replied and Julian went mute.She not

    Draven"Why should I trust you?" He asked the lady when they were in the car."I told you, I helped her escape. I was her maid and that is the reason I was almost killed by that Lycan." She replied and something about the way she spoke made Draven believe that there was more to her story."Kade is searching the whole clan for her and he suspects I have a hand in her disappearance. He also knows that you and your men were coming for war." She added, making Draven even more interested."How did you know about that?" He asked."While I was dragged out of the clan, I overheard the guards talking about preparing for war against Draven and his men." She answered again."How did he know that we were coming for war?" Draven asked, more to himself than to the lady but she replied anyway. "I don't know that. Except he has an informant." "That is it," Draven whispered. "He must have had someone who told him about it." They tried to keep it as secretive as possible but it still managed to leak.

    DravenThey were able to get as many armies as they could. Draven was impatient and refused to wait any longer. He tried to hide the mission from Beatrice but she heard someone from one of the guards. She had her way of making them spill whenever she wanted as the former Luna of the pack and they did."What is this I am hearing?" She stormed into his room, fuming in anger."What is it?" Draven asked nonchalantly. "You want to wage a war against the clan? Are you out of your mind? And you want to do it for Aveline's sake? Have you forgotten that she is bad luck?" Beatrice ranted but Draven still held an unfazed look.Beatrice never liked Aveline and he was not even concerned about that. All he wanted was to get her back where she was meant to be which was beside him.Any other thing did not matter."She is there because she saved me. She offered to go in there so that I would be spared. And now, I don't want to keep hiding like a coward, waiting for the next person who would go in fo

He barked in anger."You all are just bunch of statues, standing here occupying fucking space! You are not doing your jobs!" Kade's voice reverberated over the walls of the hall.He was on the verge of running mad.How could Aveline escape? How could she even have the slightest thoughts of escaping? After all the threats he made sure to keep her in check, she still found the courage to leave the walls of the clan!Kade wanted Aveline to leave on a stretcher or in a coffin. Not alive!"Lock everywhere down! Lock every fucking gate, entrance and exit down! And I need every single person who has attended to Aveline while she was here to assemble before me now!"

    MasonMason always loved to go for a run in the forest. Although his friend, Ethan advises him against it, he always replies with his favorite line."A wolf is not a wolf when he has not flexed his muscles and bones for days."While Ethan made a reasonable argument, the forest was not safe due to the Lycans who had taken charge of the place and built their clan in the center of the forest, they had to watch the way they moved to avoid being tracked down by the Lycans. Mason was the leader of the rogue wolves whose packs were destroyed due to one issue or the other and he got his position by getting into a fight with the leaders of each rogue wolf's pack and he won them all, making him the strongest and capable leader.That day was a bright one and the sun was up so early. He slipped out of the pack before Ethan would suspect anything and talk him out of it for the umpteenth time.Once out of the pack a reasonable distance, he shifted to his wolf form and raced towards the forest.
