Aveline

"Do you think you're any different from Emily?" I repeated, my tone dripping with annoyance. "Tell me!!" I yelled at the top of my lungs, my voice echoing off the walls. Draven took a step backward, his eyes widening slightly as he regarded me warily.

After all he had put me through, did he really think he had a shot at winning me back? The very idea was laughable. If he thought he could just waltz back into my life and expect me to forgive and forget, he was sorely mistaken. Not while I still had a pulse.

"What is that supposed to mean?" Draven asked his squinted eyes a testament to the confused look on his face. He took a step forward, his eyes locked on mine.

"You're seriously asking me what I mean?" I shook my head in disappointment, my eyes rolling heavenward. There was a high chance he was lying, and I could see it in his eyes. All he wanted was to hear it from my mouth, to manipulate me into revealing more than I intended.

"Yeah," he said finally, breaking the minute-lo

    AvelineIt was all a lot.I felt a spark of anger ignite within me, but Draven continued, his voice unwavering. "You think I was at fault in the past? Fine." He paused, his chest rising with a deep breath."But do you think it's a good thing that you're letting your emotions get in the way of everything that has to do with me?" He laid emphasis on the "me," his voice tinged with a hint of regret. For a fleeting moment, I saw a glimmer of vulnerability in his eyes, a crack in the armor that had once seemed impenetrable but I didn't let it get to me at all since it was gone the second it appeared. "Coming from someone who called me his whore, coming from someone who said I'm nothing but a tool to satisfy his sexual urges." The memories came flooding back, and I felt a wave of anger wash over me. It would have reduced me to tears eight years ago, but now it only fueled my rage.I shut my eyes, my fists clinched as those painful moments he'd caused me had become the fuel that powered my

    DravenFurious, Draven gritted his teeth as he watched Aveline walk out of the room, her little hand clasped softly in Kade's wide and long hand. The sight ignited a firestorm of rage within him. He rose from the table, his movements swift and menacing.With a savage kick, he sent the chair closest to him crashing on the floor. The sound of a splintering chair echoed through the room as he unleashed his fury upon the helpless chair, smashing it into unrecognizable fragments. His eyes blazed with an intensity that made fury seem like an understatement."Fuck!" he bellowed, his voice thundering off the walls. He ran his hands through his hair, pulling at the strands as if trying to rip them from his scalp. His chest heaved with ragged breaths, his entire body trembling with unrestrained anger."DAMN!" he yelled again, the sound echoing through the room like a curse. He paced back and forth, his long strides devouring the distance as he struggled to contain the tempest raging within him.

    DravenHis eyes widened twice their size when he read the text. And instinctively, he turned off his phone and turned it back on to be sure he saw it right or it was just his obsession over the matter.Maybe he had begun to hallucinate, but when the text was still there, he knew it was real.He looked around quickly and returned his gaze to the device, maybe someone was messing with him? He wouldn't know until he replied to the texter and so he did."Who are you?" He typed in response.'One needs to be sure who's on the other end. Can't go chatting off strangers who might just want to extort and blackmail.' He thought with a shrug and waited rather impatiently for a response.The constant tapping of his feet sold him off."Come on, reply to the text." He muttered with his thumb in between his lips.He wasn't expecting any information from anyone who wasn't the police as it stood, apart from the guards he'd put to look after Betty, nothing was going on but for a strange number to text

    DravenDraven's eyes widened in shock as he stared at the photograph in his hand. Emily, the woman he had once thought was his mate, stood intimately close to a man in a rival pack which he knew all too well. His index finger trembled with rage as he touched the man's face in the picture.For a moment, Draven's mind doubted the authenticity of the photographs. Could they be part of a rival pack's plan to manipulate him? But as he looked deeper into the image, his doubts began to fade."Are you still doubting it?" his wolf asked, its voice laced with a low, mocking chuckle. "You remember him, don't you?"Draven's grip on the photograph tightened, his knuckles turning white with tension. He nodded, his voice barely above a whisper. "Yes, yes, I still remember him."The memory of Matthias's treachery came flooding back, and Draven's anger surged to the surface. He rose to his feet, his fists clenched so tightly that his veins began to bulge."Just like you never forgot," his wolf growled

    DravenIt all felt surreal hearing the words that came out of Emily's mouth. She tried to deny the accusations at first but couldn't say anything when she saw the evidence Draven threw at her.To think that she was not a member of a strong pack like he'd been forced to believe or a reputable wolf at the very least, she was from a goddessdamn rogue pack. And to think that he mistreated Aveline, his true mate because of the spells she had put him under made his stomach recoil.Draven felt the strong urge to strangle the woman standing before him until her lungs gave out but he needed to hear more, he needed to hear what she had to say."So you're a witch? You poisoned my mind and blocked me from perceiving the scent of my true mate? You separated from my true mate all these years and claimed to love me!" Draven growled, his eyes red with anger as he made a mental picture of how many times he'd pushed Aveline away all in the hope that Emily was his true mate."I do love you Draven, and

    Draven "There is nothing you could do." Beatrice walked into the office while trailing behind Draven who never spared her a glance. "Banishing her was the best thing you could do," she came to an abrupt stop. "Were you going to kill her? Because if you do, then that would put you and everything you have at risk." Draven furrowed his brows as he turned to Beatrice. "Risk? You think killing her would put me at risk?" He had a devilish smile on his face. "I never had any intention of killing her though." "Then?" Beatrice's hands rested on her waist, her eyes never leaving Draven's face as she awaited his response. The silence stretched out, thick with tension, before she continued. "If Emily is a spy, then you should know her pack is still out there. I don't think you should do something rash, Draven."A soft exhale escaped Draven's lips as he walked back to his chair, his hands tucked deep into his pockets. His eyes seemed to

    DravenHe returned back to his office after thinking long and hard about going to meet Aveline."It might seem too soon." Draven whispered to himself and sat down with a sigh of frustration.Sitting still on the chair with an obviously bored look on his face, Draven tore his gaze from the person that was currently speaking and looked further away. His eyes locate that one person, the only reason why he has decided to attend the current conference that was still ongoing. Aveline. He has questions to ask, one that had been bothering him for quite a while, ever since he laid his eyes on that news. The news that shattered his heart. He had always felt that Aveline was within his grasp, within his reach, but that doesn't seem to be the situation any longer. Draven couldn't help but feel that this was all his fault, he had been the cause of this, right from the beginning, he had been deceived by Emily. The hatred

He thinks we're going to end up together but I have no problem sorting him out when the time comes.Telling him I can't end up with a person who isn't my fated mate is enough to break the relationship but the relationship has been effective so far so I don't want to end it yet."Here darling," Kade said as he handed me a cup of coffee with a kiss on my cheek.We met up in my office to discuss the arrangement and process involved in creating the new pack."You made it just how I like it," I pouted, looking at the love shape he drew with the milk in the cup. "Thank you." "I'm glad you like it." He replied, settling into the seat opposite mine."So, where do we start?" He asked taking a sip.Every pack had its unique touch and we had to find ours. Something that the pack would be known for and the kind of people we would be.Kade had reached out to some influential wolve

    Aveline."Why is the car driving towards us? And with that amount of speed?" Sabrina asked, wide-eyed and alarmed. "Hold tight," I instructed and turned the steering wheel to change the direction of the tires so the moment I stepped on the accelerator, my car escaped the oncoming car by a little shift. They could've run into us if I hadn't acted fast. I stared at my rearview mirror to observe the white van that was behind us and noticed that the engine was still on and it was still coming for us.I sped off with hopes of losing the car but another one came from one of the bushes in front."Shit!" I cursed but didn't take my legs off the accelerator."Were they trying to kidnap us right now? Or was this Kade's doings? It had to be placed since we couldn't place a finger at what or who exactly was behind it.If I was the only one, I could've let them take me but I had my family with me and I wasn't about to let any of them get hurt. Not on my watch."The car doesn't seem to be stoppin

    AvelineIt's been four days since Draven told me about what he saw and what he thinks might happen and even though Sabrina thinks we should go to Draven's pack and stay under his watch, I don't think I'm ready yet to go there.Not when Betty is involved. I could go alone or even bear taking Sabrina with me but with Betty coming along, it's a different ball game.The last years I spent there were hell to me and the memory still haunts me after years. I wouldn't want Betty to experience the slightest toxicity. "What do you think about this dress huh? You'd slay in it I'm sure. Necks would turn to you if you go in this." Sabrina was at one of her talks to try to convince me to move to Draven's park."I told you before already, I'm not going to let Betty go through what I went through.""Who said she's going to go through that? Besides, Draven's now on your side and so is Sofia." She protests."What if Sofia's just pretending to get me on good notes with her? What if Draven's in on it wi

    Aveline Hours after Betty's birthday, I was sitting in my garden under a shade, alongside Sabrina. Betty had gone to school, the maids had come over to clean and cook, and they had all been dismissed; their services wouldn't be needed throughout today.The only service that would be needed is that of the guards who were at the gate. They had been there ever since the day that the news got released, with no dismissal for them. With Kade out there, my life was still in danger; he had threatened me. I need all the security and protection that I can get for as long as I can. “What's up with you? You have been lost in thought for quite a while now,” Sabrina said after tapping me to get my attention. “Really?” I questioned with a slightly stunned expression on my face; the question was a genuine one, though. Truthfully, I had no idea that I had been lost in thought, not until Sabrina tapped me.“Yeah. So, are you going to share what it is that is troubling you?” she questioned.“Obvious

    DravenI told Aveline to go inside with Betty while I spoke with Kade and her eyes communicated how grateful she was for my intervention. She must've been so scared to see Kade here after their fight and it pissed me off to see the negative effect he had on her.Things are different now that I have another chance with her and I will not allow another man to threaten Aveline or her child. I couldn't protect them before and I am going to do everything in my power to protect them now."Go on and play in the swing section." Kade dismissed his niece with a soothing smile before pocketing his hands and shifting his attention to me."What the fuck are you doing here Kade?" I began, my expression stiff and unimpressive. "What do you think? I'm here for my niece's best friend's birthday party." He says with a nonchalant smile. "Cut the crap, I know that's not why you're here. And I know that you're being that stunt in there." My voice became raspy as my anger grew."Did something happen in

    AvelineI make a swift glance behind Draven to see two serving carts rolling towards us, one was empty while the other was packed with plates and utensils with food in them.The guests were screaming and running out of the way. From the look of things, the carts collided with force and were coming our way. For some reason, I couldn't seem to move. My feet felt like they were glued to the ground. I looked at Draven's face which held a frown.The logical thing to do was to move out of the way but I couldn't -- we couldn't. It was as if we were being controlled by some remote."What's going on?" Draven blurts out and I know that it was as I thought. We both couldn't move.Something with the force of a magnet was pinning us to the ground.The carts roll in so close I think we're going to be run over but just then, strong hands and bodies push us to the side and fall over us."What the fuck was that?" Sofia asked after the carts rolled past us."I don't know." Getting on my feet was strai

    Aveline. The day for Betty’s birthday finally arrived after what seemed like a really slow week. A lot of people were invited, and it was hosted in my house. The people that showed their face here were more than the ones that I had invited; some of them were Betty’s friends. I walked around to make sure that everything was in order just before the party started; it was less than an hour away from starting. There was a knock on the door. I watched Sabrina walk up to the door to open it. I didn’t bother turning back to stare at who it was; instead, I continued with my search. The person who knocked might just be someone I had invited or maybe one of the friends Betty had made in her class. “Aveline,” a familiar voice called, causing me to turn back with a smile on my face, one that stretched with a little bit of surprise. Immediately, I saw what she was holding. “Where’s your little girl? I have something to present to her myself,” she said, raising the box of cupcakes in her han

    Draven. “Ok then, that would be all for now,” Draven said over the phone to someone who was on the other end of the line. He listened to the person’s reply, pulled the phone away from his ear, and slipped his phone into his pocket. Staring at the view of the city through his floor-to-ceiling window, he spaced out, remembering how the past few days had been. Aveline’s pack members' attack on his pack has finally been halted, and the peace has finally returned, all thanks to Aveline. She had also been the one to deal with the issue that had been trending on the internet, though she had been the one benefitting negatively from it, while it had only had a little impact against him. At that moment, the emotion occupying his heart was that of sadness, due to the fact that he was unable to help at all the past few days. That act was so unlike him; he was known well for always helping out in times like this and also coming up with solutions. The look in his eyes suddenly lit up; immedi

    AvelineI cocked my head to the side with a raised smile and an amused expression on my face."Say what now?" I asked even though I heard her clearly.And she must've known and chosen to ignore or was just oblivious to the fact that she acted very strangely."I said I want a truce, between us." She repeated. Her face is straight.She must've been touched since I accepted to help her pack. Her beef with me was unreasonable. She should've known from the start but I do not tell her that and I certainly do not trust her call for a truce.We've been enemies for too long I'd gotten used to seeing her like one.However, it must've taken everything in her to approach me for a truce and blocking her out might not be the best thing to do since it's better to keep the enemies closer."My daughter's birthday dinner party is this weekend. Come if you're not busy." I said with a smile.There, I can watch her closely and find out if she has an ulterior motive. I expected her to frown and snap at me

    Aveline. Immediately after I walked out of the house, I let out a long exhale to calm my raging nerves. I ignited the engine, and at the same time, connected my phone with my car and was about to place a call across to the huge guy I had fought in my pack to convince the remaining pack members. Mason. That was his name; I had learned it from him after the fight, which had been obviously humiliating to him.Just as I was about to dial the number, I decided against it and just decided to play music instead.I was really trying to avoid anything that would get me more pissed than I was.‘You will need to get your emotions in check before you do something that you might regret out of anger,’ V said in my mind with her usual calm tone.‘I am really trying to get them in check, but the words that Sofia said keep repeating in my head, and that is the exact thing keeping me pissed.’ I replied to her, my face tensed, forming a frown. ‘Think of something else, then,’ V replied and fell in
