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 Kade had started to get impatient. It had just been two minutes since he asked me that question, and he had started to get impatient, which showed how serious he was. As I hesitated, I couldn't shake the feeling that my response would be a turning point in our friendship. If I said yes, it could bring about an unforgettable memory, but also potentially lead to consequences I couldn't yet foresee. On the other hand, saying no might spare me from uncertainty, but also risk disappointing him and altering the delicate balance of our relationship.I felt the weight of this decision acutely, knowing that either response would inevitably leave its mark on our friendship. I was trapped in a web of possibilities, unsure of what to say but certain that my choice would forever change the dynamics between us.‘I am also dying from the suspense so go on and say whatever you want to say.’ V teased me with a soft chuckle. Kade’s eyes never left mine all this while but I tried avoiding

I for one, knew how that felt."Julian took them." His breath came out ragged and I could tell they were out of anger."We tried to avoid him and stay away from him. We even denied the kids civilization and he still found us." He raged."What are you going to do about it?" All I needed to do was ask. He had already made the resolve in his mind and as he shifted his gaze to me, I knew that we were fighting the Lycans together.We all stormed out of the forest. The plan was to get to Draven's pack, regroup and go to war and so we did.Luckily, none of Julian's men were outside the clan so we were able to pass through, following the bush paths.We had no means of transportation other than our legs but we were pretty fast.

    AvelineA sharp pain in my head made me force my eyes open. I'd been having lots of weird dreams that I couldn't wake up from no matter how hard I tried.It was strange since I knew that it was all a dream but it was as though someone or something was at the door between real life and dreamland, shutting the door to real life whenever I got so close and forcing me back to dreamland.The dreams were about my wolf, the first time I felt her. Which was strange. I never had a dream about V, and now I was having countless, recurring dreams about her. How we fought Sofia, for the first time. I won.How I threatened Sofia, how brave I felt having her with me, defeating Scar and becoming Alpha. And how I lost her. My days in the dungeon, the hallucinations and torture. Then back to a powerless and helpless Aveline working as a secretary, reeking of sweat and the scent of cheap roll-on that has changed to something else due to the excess work I was occupied with.The insults, humiliation and

    Mason"What is this place?" He whispered. The crystals glistened more with the lightening of the place.She did not reply to him. Typical. Instead, she walked into one of the corners of the cave where a stream sat.The stream wasn't flowing, it was more like a stale pool but it's water was so clear that Mason could see the pores on his facial skin"What is this? Why did you bring me here?' He asked, all the more confused."Tis the place my ancestors stored their valuables." She replied and went mute again.Okay, now, this was scary. "I want her to have it. This is the reason I'm still alive. They will not let me go until I do what they have instructed and they say I should give this to her." She spoke again after her silence almost killed Mason. "I have watched you, you are a good wolf. You will protect her. It's your life duty. And you will make sure she has these things." She finished. Mason's eyes fluttered, as he tried to understand what he was told."Who is she? Why did they

    Mason"Don't touch that." The healer, or witch or whatever she was called said when Mason wanted to examine a statue in her living room. The living room was used for most of her practices.It was a large room with wide corners that held tables, in some and statues in some with incense burning out from them."Uh, sorry?" Mason replied, drawing his hands back to himself. "Follow me." She bellowed and he gasped with uncertainty. She had barely spoken to him since he showed up with Aveline. She didn't even ask him what happened to her.She just tapped on the closest table and had Mason lay her on it. Ethan tried to speak but she grunted angrily and he figured it was best to let the witch do her job.After taking long hours on Aveline, the men grew tired and settled in front of her hut. They were exhausted from their long journey and it did not help as she wasn't speaking to them. She also did not need their help which had them standing there, watching her perform what was alien to them.

    Kade"W- what are you doing?" Betty asked confusion spread over her face as Kade began to bind her hands and legs."You just wait, my dear. Trust your uncle now will you?" He faked a smile and tied up the last piece of rope."Where's my mom?" She asked again, her voice shaking with each word."There are some things you don't know about your mom Betty. Your mom has done some bad things to me but it's not a problem anymore, because I have you now." Kade smiled.Betty pressed her back against the frame of the chair but it was too late to escape now. "Your mom is not here. I'm sure you've figured that out by now." Kade continued"But I plan to put you in her place. She's owing me a great deal and I don't like to be owed."Betty broke into tears. Not because she was standing in for her mom but because she disobeyed Draven. He would be all over the place looking for her."Can you call Draven, and tell him that I am safe?" She asked amidst tears of regret.Kade squinted as a smug smile cros

    DravenWithout any word from Kade for eighteen hours, Draven was scattering everything in his path. From the chairs to the papers in front of him to the walls. He had a bandage tied over his previous injury but he didn't relent. Neither did he stop punching the walls.Kade was a bastard. That was certain. He was messing with Draven's mind and eating deep into him at the same time.Handing over Aveline's company, Aveline's hard work over the years was non-negotiable even considering her absence but Betty was involved. The only heir to Aveline's company was involved. Draven felt like he was a train of bad luck. Everyone who loved him, every single person he cared about always ended up in one danger or the other.First, it was Aveline and now, Betty. Draven was about to punch the wall in anger again when his phone's notification drew his attention.It was another video from Kade and this time around, Betty was in chains. Although, the tape was still glued to her legs, separately, her

    KadeJust as he promised, he headed for his niece's school that day. It was his last opportunity to get what he wanted and have been fighting for for years.As usual, he got there in time to wait for the students to come out of their classes. And there was, Betty. His last ticket to getting what he wanted in life."Hey pretty..." he greeted but Betty changed direction and walked back towards the class.He chased after her. His niece was not out yet so he had some time with Betty before she stepped out. "Hey, hey, what is it?" He asked nervously when he caught up to her.The little girl had an unreasonable expression on her face and it made Kade all the more suspicious. "Didn't you see me waving at you? Why did you turn around? Are you not happy to see me?" Kade threw question after question, desperate for answers.But Betty just stared at him while she tried to free herself from his grasp."What is wrong huh? Did Uncle do something wrong? Why are you not talking to me?" He continued

    JulianJust like it had been for a couple of weeks, Julian continued his routine of sulking all day and distracting himself with the alcohol when a guard ran into his chambers.With a bow, he started."Team A found something deep in the forest... a pack. Of wolves. I think they are rogue wolves and they appear not to have a leader. Some of the guards are keeping a close eye on them. We reported back to you so you can tell us what next to do." Julian shifted his gaze, surprised by the information. "There is a pack in that forest?" He asked then stared into blank space."How did they manage to survive there?" He asked rhetorically, with an absent expression. "Are you certain about this?" He asked the guard who nodded frantically. "They even have cubs and young wolves. It's a decent pack but we didn't notice any leader. They all seemed to do everything together." The guard replied and Julian nodded."Bring them in if that is the case," Julian instructed."They might have seen the gir
