Avery Elise's P. O. V.

Duke was caressing my hair as we lay down to bed and I'm resting in his chest. I can feel the cold temperature coming from the aircon, but Duke's warmth was enough for me to not feel it much.

"Duke?" I looked up to him.

"Hmm?"

"What time are we going?" Funny how I am asking him that when I myself is closing my eyes to sleep.

He can't blame me. I felt so tired and exhausted from what we did almost the whole day. He was too fast to recover, though we mostly did the kissing more than 'that'.

"I thought you're tired?" Duke closed his eyes when he told me the same reason why I asked him to stop.

I smiled and bit my lower lip, "I am."

"Then, rest. We're not going, anymore." I quickly sat on the bed after hearing what he said.

Nervousness and fear elope in my face. I'm sure of that. Because Duke's face darkened when he opened his eyes and saw my reaction.

"No, Duke! We have to go." I told him before I got up while covering my robe around my body.

    Avery Elise's P. O. V."Care to share the secret to me?" Valerie asked me as we walked down to the hallway and got her stuff in the locker room of the fighters."I have none, Valerie." I told her while creasing my forehead."Oh, come on! Mr. Myers is not here, you can reveal it." She wiggled her brows at me.I rolled my eyes when she took her eyes off of me. So, what if Duke's not here? There's nothing to tell her, anyway. Does she think I have a secret to share with her just because she managed to bring me here alone after Chairman Myers convinced Duke to let me go with Valerie?'Valerie, you're starting a game again, aren't you?'"There's really nothing, Valerie." I sat on the bench behind her."I mean, how did you have him as your.. you know what I mean!" She snapped at me."I don't know, Valerie. It just happened." It happened under the shower, right after he proposed a proper wedding to me. But of course, I'm not letting them know about that.Valerie shrugged her shoulders, "Alri

    Avery Elise's P. O. V.I didn't speak much anymore after our parents started talking with each other again. Chairman Myers and my dad are mostly the ones who are talking about business and their plans. Sometimes Duke is involved with their conversation, but most of the time, he's just listening and watching me.I don't know why he has his eyes on me when I'm not even doing anything or talking to anyone, but I just let him be to not make any argument between us, and it's not like Duke would choose to argue with me in here.The bell rang. And the host for tonight went on the stage, announcing the most awaited battle from the Catalina and White's assassins."Can we go there, Duke?" I looked at him on my side and as I was expecting, he was still looking at me. "Please? I want to watch it!""You can watch here, Avery." Valerie butted in. "You don't need to go down." She waved her hand at us. "See yah, sis!"I chewed on my lip, trying my best to not make a scene. It'll be so childish and im

    Avery Elise's P. O. V.I opened my eyes when I felt someone wiping my face. Duke was standing in the side and talking to Beta Koby while Tricia was the one who's wiping my face."Lycan Queen!" She exclaimed after seeing me awake.Duke and Beta Koby heard her voice, but neither of them went to me. I wasn't bothered by it actually, as I do feel like I needed some space to breathe.My hand reached for my cheek when I felt something heavy there."That'll take a while." Tricia told me in a low voice. "But the swelling is getting better now. Don't worry, you'll be fine."I sat on the couch I was laying down. Tricia stepped away from me when Duke sat in front of me."Had I known this would have happened to you, I shouldn't have let you come here tonight!" He hissed before he carefully touched my jaw and inspected my swollen cheek. "F*ck!" I heard Duke cussing before I saw him turn to Beta Koby. "Go and get that as*hole!""Yes, Alpha!" Beta Koby quickly said before he took his leave while Tri

    Avery Elise's P. O. V."Are you tired?" Duke asked me when he got into the car.I nodded at him and didn't say anything else. I heard when he released a deep sigh before the car started moving. In the middle of our way I felt tired and so drained. Despite the arguments I had with Duke, I still moved towards him and cuddled him. I rested my head on his shoulder and let myself fall asleep.The next morning, the witch was invited to the house again. He was sitting quietly with Giselle beside him. None of them doesn't want to start a conversation with each other. Probably because they're of different races and beliefs."Good morning!" I greeted them to lighten up the mood around us.They both stood up and bowed their heads at me so I smiled at them before I motioned the chairs. "Have a seat, please!" I offered and gladly, they accepted it."I'm sorry for calling you both here at this hour. I know it's too early when you received my message." I apologetically said. "I hope I didn't cause

    Avery Elise's P. O. V.I laughed hard when I saw Duke still sleeping in my bed. He won't even wake up no matter how much face powder I put on his chest.Yup. That's how tired he was right now. After I got bored, I stood up from the bed and made my way to the bathroom to clean up myself. I've decided to go out and prepare breakfast for Duke, but when I got into the kitchen, the maids were panicking and it doubled when they saw me walking towards them."Lycan Queen!" They greeted me in worry."It's early in the morning yet you guys are worrying over something already. What's the matter?" I asked them in confusion."Luna Queen, it just happened that we don't have enough food stock anymore for everyone." Lory came in front of me. "Alpha Alexander's pack stayed here the whole day as per Alpha Duke's order."I see. So, that's why they're panicking."It's alright. Don't worry." I smiled at them to assure them. "I can just go out and do the shopping—""But Alpha Duke—""Oh, don't worry. He's

    Avery Elise's P. O. V.My head was literally spinning when I opened my eyes. I can see people in front of me. All having the best time of their lives right now. Drinking, playing, and talking to each other, mostly men are the ones near me.I can't move my body nor I can speak to let anyone know to help me. Only when a familiar face looked at my side, they realized that I'm awake after she announced it."Our lovely Lycan Queen is awake!" She happily announced it to everyone. Her eyes were sporting excitement and delightment. She went to my side and pulled something away from me.After she did that, I was able to breathe freely and move my body. I felt like I went numb and completely paralyzed. My body felt too weak as I looked at them and realized who they are."Luna Karen.." I called her in a small and strained voice. Beside her was her mate, "Alpha Waylon."And everyone around them is their pack! Though there are people I don't know yet but I knew that they're with them. Something's

    Avery Elise's P. O. V.It's hot. It felt so hot, much hotter than how it was since the last time they woke me up. Supposedly, I should be sleeping right now. But it's different.I slowly open my eyes, finding the machines attached to me and helping them to monitor what they want to know about me.I still don't know why they're doing this to me although they gave me ideas already, but I feel like there's more to it that I should know and be aware of."D-Duke…" I tried to call him, but he's nowhere around me. Only a man, I guess six years older than me or more, looking down at me with his bloodshot eyes. "W-Who are y-you?"My voice sounded so weak and my lungs felt dry. I need water to drink something as I already feel so thirsty and weak."Is it true?" The man asked me. I don't know what he means or who he is, this is the first time I saw him in this place. I only looked at him, not understanding what he meant with his question. "Is it true that you took her?!""W-Who?" I suddenly felt

    Avery Elise's P. O. V.The trolley started moving and I couldn't see anything. It was a help that I still can't move much, somehow, because Giselle's brother managed to push it out without me, causing any trouble.I know that we're out already, because I felt when the temperature changed from cold to warm. I felt the trolley shake a bit before footsteps approached us."What's this?" I heard a man's voice asking."The blood. Were you expecting something else?" Giselle's brother answered with no emotion in his voice.The two men fell silent and for them to do that, I immediately knew that something was wrong and Giselle's brother was not aware of it."What is it?" I heard him asking while trying to cover the confusion in his voice.No one spoke before I heard something move, probably a gun, before they started walking forward to the trolley's direction."Head back inside!" Another man spoke. "Alpha Waylon ordered that no one's leaving anymore!"My eyes widened after hearing what he said

    I knew it'll be her, I always did since my father handed me the Catalina's folder. I knew because it was impossible for Kenzo Catalina to hand over his ace in the mafia, Valerie Catalina.She was spoiled and most loved, adored and looked up by many people. Even humans can't keep her eyes out of her and are all willing to pay her high just to buy her service. While her sister, Avery, is a different type.I saw it the first time she looked into my eyes. The pain, agony, and endurance she has while hearing everything that people say about her.Looking into her in front of me felt different. She looked confident despite the emotion in her eyes that she can always manage to hide from everyone. Maybe because she's being forced?She doesn't feel comfortable being in this place, in front of everyone and most of all, under her father's presence who did nothing but to intimidate and threaten her with his gazes.I did feel something the first time she looked at me.

    "Duke, you're getting married tonight." 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. All I need is to finally inherit his positions as the head of the Myers's mafia and the Lycan King. My pack and I have been waiting for this moment. We have trained countless days and nights just to be ready for this.And after a lot of hard work, we're getting there, but the only problem I had was the part that I need to get married first.

    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.

    Avery Elise's P. O. V."Ready?" My father held my hand while looking outside of the window. 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. Next was the werewolves, especially that I came from their

    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?"
