Isabella’s POVAs Logan and Ava embarked on their kitchen adventure, I found myself in a different setting, eager to share the progress with Aiden. Taking a moment away from the complexities of the situation, I texted Aiden, asking him to meet me.Aiden, always prompt and curious, arrived swiftly. "Isabella, what's going on? Why did you want to meet?" he inquired.With a smirk, I replied, "Our plan is finally taking shape, Aiden."His eyes lit up with anticipation. "Really? How?"I leaned in, sharing the details with excitement. "The convincing of Ava is going exceptionally well. She's agreed for all of us to meet and discuss the next steps."Aiden looked genuinely surprised. "How did you manage that? Ava was resistant to involving others."I chuckled, feeling a sense of accomplishment. "Trust me, Aiden, I'm a master at what I do. Ava trusts me, and she's ready to face the truth. The meeting is set."Aiden's expression shifted from surprise to gratitude. "Isabella, you never cease to
Isabella’s POVI sat in my car, the engine humming softly as I waited for Ava. The minutes felt like hours as I replayed the plan in my mind, hoping it would unfold smoothly. The darkness outside enveloped me, but I was determined to see justice served.Glancing at my phone, it suddenly lit up with Ava's name on the screen. I quickly answered, my voice laced with anticipation, "Ava, are you on your way?""Yeah, Isabella. I'm on my way to the spot we agreed on. I'll be there in about fifteen minutes," Ava replied, her voice carrying a mix of determination and nervousness.I nodded, even though Ava couldn't see me. "Alright, I'll be waiting. Just follow my car once you reach. We need to stick together and stay vigilant."Ava's voice held a note of gratitude, "Thank you, Isabella. I appreciate everything you're doing.""It's what friends do, Ava. We'll get through this together," I reassured before ending the call.Leaning back in my seat, my eyes fixed on the road ahead, and my mind rac
Ava's POVMy heart pounded as Aiden and I locked eyes, the weight of our conversation hanging heavy in the air. I took a deep breath, steadying myself for what might come next."Aiden," I said, my voice still measured, "I need concrete answers about my kids. I've been through hell, and I won't rest until I know the truth. If you have any information, now is the time to share."Aiden nodded, understanding etched across his face. "Ava, I know you've been through a lot, and I don't expect you to forgive me. But I genuinely want to help you find the closure you need."I couldn't deny the sincerity in his eyes, but trust was a fragile thing, and I wasn't ready to hand it over so easily. "Aiden, I appreciate your words, but actions speak louder. If you have any evidence or information about Logan's involvement in the kidnapping, now is the time to lay it all out."He reached into his pocket and pulled out a set of car keys. "Everything you need is in my car. I've kept a file with all the ev
Logan’s POVLogan sat in the dimly lit living room, a swirl of conflicting emotions running through my mind. The weight of my responsibilities as an Alpha pressed heavily on my shoulders, and the recent attacks on packs in the surrounding areas only intensified my burden. The television droned on with the news, with the broadcaster reporting grim updates on the escalating situation.The TV person, called a newscaster, had a serious face. She wore a neat suit, and her voice sounded urgent as she shared the not-so-good news. "Breaking news," she said, "more attacks on werewolf packs reported in nearby areas. Many are scared, and leaders like Logan are facing tough times."My ears perked up as I listened. My face showed how much I was worried. "I don't get it," I said quietly to myself. "Why is this happening? Packs should stick together, not fight each other."The newscaster continued with the sad news, talking about the problems other packs were facing. I got up, moving around the room
Logan’s POVI propped myself up on my elbow, looking down at Ava. "What if we take a vacation, just the two of us? A break from all the stress and responsibilities," I suggested.She raised an eyebrow, intrigued by the idea. "A vacation? That sounds tempting. Where do you have in mind?" I asked.Ava grinned, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "How about a cozy cabin in the mountains? A place where we can disconnect from the pack and work, just focus on each other, and recharge."I considered the idea, a smile playing on my lips. "You know, that doesn't sound like a bad idea at all. We both need a break. The pack and work have been weighing us down lately."Ava nodded in agreement. "Exactly! We deserve some time for ourselves. It's been so stressful, and I can see it's taking a toll on you too.""A cozy cabin in the mountains does sound tempting, Ava," I said, my brow furrowed with thoughtful consideration. "But you know the pack needs someone around, especially with the threats we're
Logan’s POV Considering the question, I replied, "I thought about that too. I'll make sure to assign some of the pack chiefs and guards to assist him. That way, the workload won't be too much for him to handle." Ava nodded, appreciating the plan. "That's a thoughtful approach, Logan. It's good to consider everyone's well-being." Feeling a sense of relief, I continued, "Yeah, I want to make sure everyone is taken care of, especially during our absence." Ava's eyes lit up. "Well, it sounds like you've got everything under control, Logan. Now, I can't wait to spend this coming vacation with you and our little one." I smiled, knowing that Ava was looking forward to the vacation as much as I was. "It's going to be amazing, Ava. "It's the perfect time for us to relax and enjoy some quality family moments." Ava, suddenly more lighthearted, asked, "So now, what hotel are we selecting?" She scrolled through her tablet, searching for the perfect place. I chuckled, "Well, let's go for some
Ava’s POVI couldn't help but marvel at the grandeur of the 5-star hotel as Logan and I stepped out of our car. The lobby was adorned with glittering chandeliers, and the marble floors reflected the soft glow of ambient lighting. The atmosphere exuded luxury and sophistication."Wow, this place is wonderful," I exclaimed, my eyes wide with awe.Logan nodded in agreement, a hint of a smile playing on his lips. "I know, right?" he said. "They have a really nice view, and their services are top-notch.""That's why I brought us here, babe," I replied with a grin, taking Logan's hand as we began walking towards the entrance of the hotel. The valet attendant quickly took charge of our car, allowing us to focus on the elegance that surrounded us."Hmm, that's nice," Logan remarked, glancing around as we entered the lobby.I continued to admire the opulence of the hotel, my gaze drawn to the artwork on the walls and the stylish furnishings. As we approached the reception desk, a friendly conc
Logan’s POVI couldn't shake the unease settling in the pit of my stomach as I glanced once more at the mysterious man across the room. Ava's laughter and the clinking of utensils against plates filled the air, but my attention was fixated on the stranger, who seemed to be deliberately avoiding eye contact this time.Ava noticed the shift in my demeanor and reached across the table to gently touch my hand. "Logan, you seem really distant. Are you sure everything's okay?"I forced myself to smile, appreciating Ava's concern. "Yeah, just lost in thought. You know how it is sometimes." I didn't want to worry her further, but the weight of the unknown pressed on me.Ava studied me for a moment before nodding. "Okay, if you say so. But if there's anything you want to talk about, I'm here."Taking a deep breath, I decided to confide in Ava, albeit cautiously. "Actually, I did see someone earlier. A guy who seems to be watching us. It's probably nothing, but it's got me a bit on edge."Ava's
Ava’s POVThere was a fight outside, and after a while, the basement doors swung open."Are you okay, ma'am?" Alphonso asked.It was Alphonso.Alphonso said he got some signals from Logan and followed them, leading them here."How did he do that, I thought...""That doesn't matter right now, please. Let's get Logan to the hospital ASAP.""Sure, ma'am, we will."Alphonso then gave instructions to the other guards. "Secure the pathway outside. We are bringing the Alpha out."Alphonso then assured me that I shouldn't worry; Logan would be fully fine.They rushed Logan to the hospital, and his heart was barely beating. I felt really sad and scared, thinking about the worst.Aiden's messed-up plan had put us in a tough spot, and Logan got hurt a lot because I was involved. I promised myself I wouldn't forgive me if Logan didn't make it.As they took Logan to the hospital in a hurry, my mind was all over the place with feelings of guilt and hope. The results of what we did were tough, and I
Ava’s POVAiden, still perched on the stool, smiled smugly. "Did you think I would let you walk away so easily after bringing Logan here?"Ava's surprise was palpable. "Wasn't our deal to make Logan confess his crimes?" she questioned, her disbelief evident.Aiden's laughter echoed through the room. "Oh, my dear Ava, you were a pawn in a much larger game. Our plans went beyond what you could see. We were using you all along."Ava's eyes widened, a mixture of shock and anger contorting her expression. She struggled against the guards, attempting to break free from the invisible chains that held her."No," she exclaimed, desperation lacing her voice. "This can't be happening."Isabella, Aiden's partner in deception, approached Ava from behind. "Oh, dear Ava, you were so blinded by your anger that you failed to see the bigger picture. We never intended to set you free. You were merely a means to an end."Ava's world crumbled around her as the realization sank in. Aiden and Isabella had m
Logan’s POV In a fit of rage, I tightened my grip on Aiden, my desire for answers overwhelming me. "Tell me the truth, Aiden! What have you done to Ava?" I snarled, my patience wearing thin. Aiden, still chuckling, managed to straighten his disheveled shirt. "What if I told you those triplets are yours?" he sneered, reveling in my shock. I recoiled, disbelieving. "That's a lie! Ava would never have an affair with a bastard like you!" I retorted, my blood boiling. Aiden's laughter only intensified. "Oh, but Logan, what if we hear it from the horse's mouth?" he teased, his words dripping with malicious intent. In a blind rage, I drew a knife, the metallic glint reflecting the anger in my eyes. "You're lying!" I growled, my voice low and menacing. Aiden, seemingly unafraid, continued to taunt me. "What if Ava herself confirmed it? What if she admitted that those triplets are a product of our secret affair?" he jeered, the revelation slicing through me like a knife. Rage consumed m
Logan’s POVI tried hard to break free from the ropes, feeling them scratch my skin. They held me like strong chains, keeping me stuck in this strange place. I pulled and pulled, hoping to get away from this scary situation.The room was so quiet, and it made me feel trapped. It wasn't a nice quiet; it felt like something scary was hiding in the air. But I didn't want to be scared. I needed to stay calm and figure out how to leave.The room was really cold, and it gave me shivers. I wanted a clue or a sign to help me understand why I was here. But the flickering candle just made weird shapes on the walls, like they were dancing.Time went by really slowly, and my head hurt a lot. I needed to think clearly and get out of this mess. "Stay calm, Logan," I told myself quietly. Even though the dark room felt heavy, I didn't want it to make me feel too scared. I listened hard, hoping to hear something that could help, but it stayed quiet, keeping its secrets.The candle's dim light showed t
Logan’s POVThe pain was all over me, like being stung by a bunch of bees at once. My body felt all shaky, and I could taste blood in my mouth. I couldn't let them win, though. Not for me, but for my wife, Ava. I had to show them I was stronger than they thought by getting up.It was like, "Come on, Logan, you can do this." I tried to get up, even though the ground was hard and my body felt heavy. I could see fuzzy forms moving as the world spun around me. There was talk, but it sounded like whispers from far away. "Ava needs me," I groaned. I can't let them keep me down." The pain was like a fire burning inside me, but I focused on my love for my wife. I had to get back on my feet. One of the guys—the one with the sneer—kicks me in the stomach with his foot. I gasped for air, feeling like all the wind got knocked out of me. I fell back to the ground, my body hurting all over. "You won't break me," I whispered to myself, trying to find power in those words. The men were laughing no
