Avery Elise's P. O. V.

Chairman Myers and Duke had been talking seriously all throughout our dinner time. I needed to be attentive to at least know what my husband's up to these past few days. I heard that they're having a hard time this time because someone else's helping the rogue vampires.

It's been a question what the army that they're forming is for. Even I, who doesn't know much about the situation, is questioning their real motive for this action that they're doing.

After dinner, Duke stood up so I followed him. He looked at me before he glanced down at my plate and after seeing that my plate was empty, he held my hand and pulled me away with him.

"Where are we going, Duke?" I asked in confusion after seeing him pulling me to the garden.

I looked around us and found no one here other than us.

Duke didn't answer my question. We continued walking until we reached the closed butterfly garden. Duke opened the door and we went inside.I couldn't spot any butterflies when we entered,

    Avery Elise's P. O. V."What are you saying?" After a long silence between us, Duke chose to break it with his cold and deep voice. I gulped while looking at his emotionless and cruel eyes. "You think you were interfering in my life?" Duke took a step closer to me. "Do you still think that our marriage is all about the 'job' like how you view it?"I took a step back after hearing his question. There's something about his question that doesn't sit right to me. I mean, it feels… dangerous. It feels that if I answer him wrongly, he'll do something I wouldn't like.I took a deep breath to calm myself before I spoke to him again, "No, Duke. It's not like that.""My Luna?" His hand moved to caress my cheek. "Stop it." I creased my brows at him and gave him a confused look. "What?"He clenched his jaw before he released a deep breath. Duke held my hand and he pulled me to sit on the nearest bench.He placed a kiss on my shoulder as his arms wrapped around my waist again."Forget it," he whi

    Avery Elise's P. O. V.I glanced at Lory's direction in the corner, she nodded at me before she moved and gave an order for the staff to start serving the food that we prepared."Please, enjoy the food!" That happiness I have inside me for them to have what we prepared for everyone is still there. "I assume that you took a lot of time in preparing for tonight, judging as to how wonderful you're all dressed up!"They all looked surprised because of what I said. I can see that and had confirmed it after they gave me a questionable look.Even Lory, who was back in the corner again, is surprised as well with my words. I looked at each of them, still wearing my smile on my lips. Could it be…. I clenched my fist under the table. Is it against the law to speak too much? Or is it because of some kind of tradition that I should not get involved much with them nor should I compliment any of them? Whichever the real reason is, I don't exactly know.My view for a party is all about noises: Loud m

    Avery Elise's P. O. V."Beg for what?" I asked in surprise as I felt a tingling sensation of excitement in my belly.I stopped myself from smiling even though it's what I was feeling. I don't want to make it so obvious that his words excite me, but Duke had surely managed to see through me.Duke smirked at me with his eyes full of cruelty, "You tell me. What should you beg for?" His fingers slowly traced its way down in between my thighs. I silently gasped after feeling that heat inside me, intensified after feeling his fingers, caressing each sides of my cl*t. Now that Duke is answering the feeling that I had since the dinner party, I'm slowly understanding what it meant. And I know that he can feel it too."Duke, please… Do it, please." I beg in a hoarse voice as my hands grab his nape for our lips to crash.I felt when he chuckled and his moans were suppressed by our kisses. I moved to push Duke in the bed, but his body was so strong that I failed to do it. I stopped kissing him

    Avery Elise's P. O. V."I hope you did have a great time staying here, Lycan Queen." Tricia told me before she sipped her juice.We're outside and just near the mansion of the Myers. Duke didn't really want me to go out with Tricia, but I insisted since I need time away from him. I still feel embarrassed for what I did last night, though I enjoyed it."I did. Everyone was great with me!" I tried to hide the sarcasm in my voice, but Tricia still laughed at me."Forgive me, Lycan Queen, but you look too innocent to lie! We all know how terrible Morgan is to everyone she doesn't like for her son, it's only Tiffany whom she favors the most and always wanted for Alpha Duke." Tricia disappointedly shook her head. "I can still remember the other women who tried to be his wife, suffering in both their hands." "Really?" I asked while grimacing. "I feel sorry for them, too.""Yeah," her face suddenly became serious. "They all died, though." She looked at me after saying that. "But you don't ha

    Avery Elise's P. O. V.It was tiring. The whole day, Tricia and I did nothing but to shop. The mall we went to was one of the Myers properties and when Tricia made a call for Beta Koby, she told me that her husband informed Duke so he made a call for the mall to let us have whatever we want and the payment will be on him.When evening came, we went to a salon and had our hair and nails done. Yes, Tricia planned for it and made a schedule in the evening as she doesn't want to do much carrying after her nails are done. I don't know the real difference, but I didn't say anything and just let her be as I want to observe her behavior, one of the reasons why I agreed to come here with him. And finally, when we were done, we went home straight and called it a day. I was expecting Duke to be asleep already when I got home, but instead, I didn't find anyone at home. "Lory?" I called after I saw her in the hallway while carrying a bunch of comforters."Yes, Luna Queen?" She went straight to me

    Avery Elise's P. O. V."You must be?" I asked while looking at the man who asked me."Mr. Campbell!" I sense the confidence in his voice when he mentioned his surname. I nodded at him before I showed him a formal smile, "Mr. Campbell, I appreciate your concern for my husband. Although, as you've said, you had worked for the Myers Empire for the last ten years, shouldn't you be able to know already that Duke doesn't just go missing?" He became silent and waited for me to continue. "My husband's away to do other business and while he's gone and taking longer than we've all expected, I, Avery Myers, Duke Myers wife, would be the acting CEO and the founding chairman of the Myers Empire while my husband's gone."I stood in front of them all with dominance visible in my eyes, like how my husband would look at his prey."Now, if any of you have a problem with that, you are very free to stand up and leave this room." I sweetly smile at them. "Let's not waste each other's time here."They were

    Avery Elise's P. O. V.I wanted so much to ask him how he is, if he's fine or did he get hurt while doing his job, and what happened to him when he was away and wasn't able to contact any of us! But I couldn't find my voice to speak out my thoughts and everything I wanted to ask him."Did you have dinner already?" I asked out of nowhere. I slowly looked up, but I never looked straight into his eyes. "I could ask someone to cook dinner for you, b-bear with it for now, I promise I'll start studying to cook so I can do it next time."I cleared my throat when Duke didn't say anything, still. Slowly, I looked at his side and I almost caught my breath when I saw how much he was clenching his jaw.I released a deep breath before I walked past him. I sat down on the edge of the bed as I waited for Duke to come in. He was looking straight at me when he locked the door before he started walking towards me. "How was your day?" He suddenly asked after a minute of silence between us.I shrugged o

    Avery Elise's P. O. V."Hmp!" I tilted over the bed when I felt something that kept on hurting my back. "Argh!"Every passing second, it feels like the pain just intensifies even more. I can feel my sweat dripping from my forehead. I tightly grip on the pillow beside me before I bury my face in my pillow. No matter what I do, the pain still lingers in my back. I tried to suppress my groans, until I felt someone caressing my back. "Wife?" Duke moved beside me and he pushed aside my hair behind my ear. "What's wrong?"I slowly opened my eyes and looked at his side. Surely, pain was visible in my face and my tears could prove that. Duke became alerted after he saw me crying. He sat down and guided me to do the same. "Are you in pain anywhere? Tell me!" I wanted to focus more on him because of the sudden panic I heard in his voice, but the pain I was feeling was too much company to my curiosity and surprise."M-My back… It hurts, Duke." I looked into his eyes while crying my heart out.

Was the first thing my father told me the morning before he would pass down his position to me.Not showing any interest, I nodded my head at him as I sat on the couch beside him and in front of my mother who looked displeased with the news."Would it be Tiffany?" Mom asked. Honestly, I can't even describe the right word to use while looking at her.I don't really care whoever my father chooses for me to marry.

    Duke Devon Myers P. O. V."We haven't heard anything suspicious from Valerie." Koby informed me the moment he entered the torture room. "She came back there just this morning."I paid him a quick glance and watched as my men in the mafia whip the traitors we finally caught. Did they really think that they got past me with the help of a rogue lycan?She might've not revealed anything about our kind, but she would remain us a traitor and should be punished with the others."That's good. What about Turner?" I clenched my jaw while thinking of him watching my wife like a hawk and waiting for his prey. "Any news about him?""Adriel was the one around and watching over him. If he gets any closer to the Lycan Queen, we would know right away." I nodded at him and left that room. "What about Tiffany?""Did she do something?" I opened the door to my office and took off my coat."Alpha Alexander has been holding her captive, but what are we gonna do to her? Madame Morgan had suffered enough from

    Avery Elise's P. O. V.I wasn't talking to anyone when we got to the place that they had brought us since that night. It took me a lot of times before I finally managed to be able to slowly move forward.Nightmares plague me every night. Maybe because silently, I was hoping for Duke to come and get us, but the image of him telling me about Tiffany was the one reason I couldn't sleep well at night.It hurts. It hurts more than pushing him away from me with the thought of saving him, but I didn't let those thoughts keep on distracting me. Not especially that I have my son to take care of.I don't know what else happened about our divorce settlement in court, but I knew that my father took care of everything. It's just that.. since the last time I saw him, he hasn't visited us yet to tell me everything personally.The only way I could get through to him was by texting him. He was too busy at work, he said. Especially in taking care of Catalina's assassins that almost went down after what

    Avery Elise's P. O. V.I stretched my arms when I opened my eyes and saw Cairo awake beside me. He was enjoying himself and honestly, I'd been questioning myself how can he be awake while I'm asleep.I carefully stood up and looked around me. Duke was already gone and so was his clothes on the sofa. He probably went to work again. I sighed in disappointment and carried Cairo to his crib before I went to the tub and ready myself for a quick bath. After filling up the tub, I went out of the bathroom and saw Lory already changing Cairo's diaper and baby clothes. I watched her do it so the next time, I can do it on my own. It wasn't hard to watch, but when Lory made me try it, only then I figured how hard it can be."I think I need private lessons for this one, Lory." I blurted out and I heard her laughing at what I said."Let me take care of that now, Lycan Queen." Lory took the wipes from my hand. "Go and take a shower, the Lycan King is waiting downstairs for you two.""What?" I asked

    Avery Elise's P. O. V.The sound of a machine beeping beside me was the one that's keeping me awake. My vision was spinning and wasn't clear when I roamed my eyes around me.There was no one beside me and the place was all white. There are a lot of flowers and fruits on the table. But what confuses me more was the fact that there's an oxygen mask connected to me and I couldn't move my whole body without feeling pain at all.I closed my eyes and tried to remember what happened, but the last thing I can remember is we're on our way home. I heard when the door opened and someone came in. I couldn't open my eyes yet so I remained still and not moving when I felt someone holding my hand."I hope she wakes up soon." It was Tricia's voice! "Cairo wouldn't sleep well at night without looking for her. Poor baby, he had been expecting his mother's touch."Cairo? What happened to my baby? Is he okay?If I am in this pain, then what about my child? I need to get out of here and get to him!"She

    Avery Elise's P. O. V.The next week, I was preparing to go to the mall with my son, but Lory stopped me, telling me that my baby's not ready yet for some kind of activities like that. I quickly felt guilty for what I planned to do and I felt like being a terrible mother already, but I have to stop myself from throwing a fit. Though when I'm alone at night, I couldn't help but to cry and hope that Duke is beside us."You're getting thinner, Avery." Dad pointed out. "Have you been stressing yourself a lot? Again?"I shake my head and twist my pasta in my fork. We're at my mother's grave house and paying her a visit today."I'm fine—""No, you're not. Lory told me that you haven't been eating well and in time if not for Valerie forcing you to do so. Though your cousin is not with you most of the time, Avery." Dad said in a strict voice. "Look at your eyes, obviously you're not sleeping well. Do you want to get sick?"I boredly looked up to my dad, not caring about his lectures at all.

We were the last one they called to come in here so I wouldn't be able to intervene with the official members of the council.From now on, to avoid making mistakes just like the last time from the past, there'll be a council meeting and to see who are the rogues that can be forgiven. The council was made to review and study the behaviors of the rogues who will come to me. It'll be led by the chosen leaders of every race by the Moon Goddess.Our job was simple to discuss, but hard to do. So everyone was preparing a lot. This is the only way we have to keep the peace and for the Moon Goddess's threats to not happen. If they were to harm me, they would all lose their abilities and start weakening. The first ones to agree were the vampires, as they were dead from the inside already and losing their abilities meant losing their life too.

    Avery Elise's P. O. V.I clutched my head when I slowly opened my eyes after I woke up. I looked around me and saw Duke in the corner. He was eyeing me differently.I sat on the bed and roamed my eyes around me, realizing where I was, I faced Duke to ask a question when I suddenly remembered what happened.I bit my lower lip, I should've listened to Lory and stayed in my room. I should've just made Tricia go there and let Duke know that I want my dad inside."What time is it?" I asked in a small voice.Duke went to the table and he handed me water so I accepted it before he sat down beside me. His eyes never leave mine."It's dinner time." Duke simply said and took the water from me. "Now tell me who your real father is."I froze after hearing his direct answer. Duke didn't even stroll just to have the answer he's looking for.I avoided my eyes from his direction. "Can you let him come here, please?" "Not until you tell me the truth. Why does your uncle claim that he's your father?"
