AVERY POV

I had always been prepared for the unexpected. I believed that was how my life was set out. The goddess had created me and deposited me in the middle of chaos, so I wasn't often fazed when it came to things happening in my life, except for when Jason was taken.

This wasn't the unexpected I had wanted to happen or be expecting.

Biting my lower lip, I stole a glance at Jack. I noticed he was staring at me, and I saw Jullian staring at him from the corner of my eyes.

Aside from the chattering from James and his mother, the tension in the dining room was as thick as steel.

I could feel it and wondered if the rest were feeling it. The food I often enjoyed was barely enjoyable due to the silent communication going on between Jack and Jullian.

Swallowing, I set my fork on my plate, still filled with food, and stood to my feet.

Jack and Jullian did the same.

I started from Jack to Jullian and then back to Jack.

"I volunteered to be in the field. They are short of workers," I said.

    AVERY POVMy heart thumped wildly in my chest as I gazed around the room. Jason wasn't here. Aisha had left with him.His absence made my anxiety even skyrocketed. I didn't want to be alone with Jullian, and I didn't even want to speak to him. But now that he was inside my room, I doubted I could do anything.The lock clicked, and I bit on my lower, avoiding his gaze."Avery," he said. His voice was gruff.I shook my head, not responding to him directly because what could I say? I had nothing to say to him!"Avery," he said again. I took a step backward, hoping he wouldn't come closer, but he did anyway.Turning to face him sharply, I glared. What does he want with me? That was the question that kept swirling in my mind. Had he not done enough? No, he was definitely enjoying tormenting me!He enjoyed seeing me in pain and he had come back to torment me even more."Glare at me all you want, but you should speak to me, Avery," He said.I sucked in a deep breath.

    AVERY POVI shouldn't have said that, and I couldn't take my words back. Jullian's eyes darkened. They stayed on mine for a brief second.He said nothing to me. He just watched me. I couldn't exactly say what he was staring at, but if the look could kill, I should be dead by now because it felt like he would strangle me if he had the chance to do so."You've been sleeping with my best friend?" It was a simple question, yet it sounded overly dangerous to him."What does it have to do with you?" I retorted, holding his gaze.Jullian snarled; he clutched my chin, tilting it towards his. I stood on the ball of my feet due to how he was pulling me and our height difference."It has every fucking thing to do with me, Avery. Are you trying to test my patience? Are you lying to me now, and do you want to see what I can do for you?" he asked me."Avery!" Jack interrupted me before I could speak.Fuck! Why the hell was he here? Jullian was furious and looking for someone to pass the aggression

    JULLIAN POVI paced from the bed where Avery was lying down to the window and returned to the bed again. I had been doing that since she became unconscious.The doctor who was supposed to check her was yet to be here, and I wondered what was taking him that long. I couldn't believe he didn't have a reserve doctor for emergencies for a packhouse as big as Jack's.I had wanted the ones available to at least look at what was happening to Avery, but they seemed inexperienced. They could only stabilize her and ensure she was still living.I groaned, pushing a hand through my hair, tugging."You need to sit; my eyes are starting to spin because of you," James said, rubbing his eyes."I never asked you to be here," I stated, glaring at him."Aren't you a ray of sunshine, big brother?" James replied sarcastically, and I glared at him.Avery was in my room at the moment, even though Jack had been against it. Despite the fact that he had told me I didn't have a say over his pack house, I still

    AVERY POV: The sound of laughter filtered through the air, and I chanced a sideways glance. Julian was chuckling at something the brunette who had strut into the office earlier as though she owned it said. His eyes never left her face gorgeous face. The corner of his lips creased, and I sucked in a deep breath as a stinging sensation pricked at my eyes.Why couldn't he feel the same way about me in the office? Was I any different from her?Maybe I was at of his league.The brunette was drop-dead gorgeous and looked like someone out of a swimsuit Magazine; her long hair had loose curls at the end, and her features were so soft, so womanly, and could attract any man who glanced at her.Unlike me, in my drab brown suit and the tight bun, I always put my waist-length blonde hair in.She moved in close, whispering in his ear. He didn't even flinch, his gaze still locked on hers as if she was the only woman that existed to him.The office was designed in a way that you could see all the t

    Chapter 2: AVERY POVI am Julian's true mate. Emily's words resonated in my head, and I stared at her extended hand longer than I should have wanted to before looking at her face.I had never been slapped so hard until now. Even when Sophia was yelling at me, it seemed like nothing compared to what I was hearing right now."I've heard a lot about you, Avery, and how resourceful you can be as Julian's secretary; I hope we get along," A bright smile adorned her face.I said nothing because I had nothing to say to her. I didn't know where she had heard about me from, and I doubted it was anything good if it was Sophia who was feeding the information to her."I hope we'll get the opportunity to be able to have a discussion next time," Emily stated."I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you," I muttered, walking away from her.Emily didn't look like she had heard what I said as she smiled broadly. Then she began walking away from me.Her declaration still lingered in my head, but for all I

After the declaration from Julian, he ushered me out of the office, saying he needed to be somewhere.He hadn't even glanced at me, and he had left!Pulling out a tissue towel from a box near the sink, I blew my nose on it, staring at my coworker beside me as she gagged."Disgusting," she wrinkled her nose.I had never been the most ladylike. Perhaps it was one of the reasons Julian only saw me as a tool for his pleasure.He had never seen me as a Luna material.As the tears subsided and my composure returned, I walked out of the bathroom and into the office, hoping I wouldn't encounter any unpleasantness for the second time.But I had never been the goddess favourite, so my request definitely fell on deaf ears."Do you all know t

    CHAPTER 4: AVERY POV I blinked several times to ensure it was really Emily who had stepped into the room. She flashed me a broad smile that didn't quite reach her eyes, and she closed the door behind her. How did she get here? I couldn't help but wonder. "What are you doing here?" I asked her. "I wonder whose baby that is," Emily replied instead, ignoring my question. Had Julian shown her the message and asked her to come instead of him? I clutched my phone tightly, staring as she sauntered towards me. "You see, Julian and I are getting married soon," Emily paused. She was closer to me, so close that I could smell her flowery perfume. She flipped her brown hair from her shoulder and sighed dramatically while waving her hand in the air. I caught a glimpse of the princess cut ring on her middle finger. "Yes, we are going to have the grandest wedding and mate ceremony of the century." She gushed as if reading my thoughts.

    CHAPTER 5: AVERY POV"How are you feeling?" Grace asked as I came awake.Grace had been my best friend since high school. I had known her the longest, and she was the person I said most of the things to, even when I had been afraid to confide in Leslie sometimes.I blinked several times, looking around me. I was in my room and now lying on the bed.I wasn't in my office clothes anymore; instead, I was in my undies. Grace must have changed me out of it."Grace," I whispered. She was the last person I was expecting to see. I had locked the door; how did she get in?"I have a key, remember?" she said, frowning at me. "Are you certain you're fine? Perhaps we should see a doctor...""No, I am fine, and I remember," I said, wincing as I tried to sit up. The pain in my lower back was still evident, but it wasn't as intense as before.I gazed at my thigh and then at the floor, where I had seen blood pooling around my feet. It looked squeaky clean, as if nothing had happened."I cleaned the fl

    JULLIAN POV"That isn't good on you, brother," James said as he stepped into the room.What was he doing here? I believed Jack's pack house was large enough to accommodate my mother, James, and me in different rooms.Also, Jack had not said anything about me sharing rooms, although I wouldn't object to it if I were asked to. This wasn't my pack house, so I shouldn't be choosing what I do in it and whatnot."Tea, coffee? Whichever," James said, setting the glass tray with him on the table.I frowned staring at the steam coming from the cup, before letting my eyes wander to James.He undid the rope on the robe he was wearing to reveal a plaid blue t-shirt, and then he sat on the sofa in the room's center and crossed his legs. Taking one of the cups, which I believed to be the tea's Cups, he took a sip of the steaming liquid before wincing."Fuck, that's hot," He hissed. "I told that little shit to make it fit for drinking.""She probably did that to bring this shitty reaction from you,"

    JULLIAN POVWhile coming here, I had prepared my mind for what I would see exactly but didn't think I prepared enough.I thought I didn't care about Avery. At least, I made myself believe that I didn't and wouldn't bat a lash where she was involved.But what was this weird feeling that kept surging into him? Also, her nearness, her scent. It had ignited all that I didn't want to feel anymore.Of course, my thoughts were also to be mad at her. She had escaped with my best friend, and only the goddess knew what they had been doing together. I wanted to demand she say everything that had happened between them, but I knew I wasn't in the proper position to do so as I had awfully failed her."My dear friend," Jack said, causing my attention to leave Avery.I searched his face. It was void of humor. Somehow, I could read every of the damned expression on his face.I saw fear, and another time, I saw anger. Then, I saw determination as well and fear again."To what pleasure do I owe you a vi

    AVERY POVRather than respond to my question, Jullian continued to stare at me. It was as if he was seeing me for the first time.He didn't just stare alone and accessed me from head to toe. I wondered if it was due to the robe I was wearing, but then, knowing Jullian, I doubted it was the reason his gaze continued to linger on me."Where is Jason, Jullian?" I question.Jullian blinked as if he was snapped from the daze he had been in."Um, Jason..." he frowned, trailing off.He glanced around himself and then back at me. I did the same thing he had done. Maybe Jason was hiding behind him, and I hadn't checked properly. But Jason was not an inconsequential being not to be seen.In fact, it would have been easy to spot him due to his size."You left my son at the mercy of that witch?!" I growled before I could help myself, and I lunged towards him, folding my hands into fists and slamming them into his broad chest."You fucking left my son to be with that witch!" I cried out as I conti

    AVERY POVGroaning, I gripped the seat of the toilet. My stomach hurt from hurling all the food I had eaten the night before, and so did my jaw because I had slammed it into the bathroom room while making my way to the toilet."How do you feel?" Jack asked, gripping my hair out of my face and rubbing my back."I feel like shit," I murmured, wincing."How about we call the doctor?" he asked.I shook my head, wincing at the pain that spread through it. "I'm fine. I believe I ate something bad last night."I couldn't really recall what was wrong with what I had eaten—beef and broccoli stir-fried with soy sauce.Or maybe it was the cake I had eaten soon after but I doubted that was the cause."Maybe not," Jack said. "I look perfectly fine," he pointed to himself.He was right. We had dined together and he looked healthy. He didn't look like he would be sick any moment from now."Maybe it's the flu then," I said. It was that time of the year for it. Although I would be the first person com

I grimace, kneading its temple.I glared at James, who was still playing with the chains that were used to hold his hands in place."Sorry," he shrugged with a smile on his face. I knew he wasn't sorry. "I'm just trying to keep this place livelier.""While I am trying to think of a way out. You are not helping," I said.James stopped what he was doing, held his face with his hands, and stared at me with a raised brow. "What's the secret? I am curious to know how you wish to get us past these guards in front of us."Right. That was what I was thinking, too. Emily thought it funny to double the guards in the room. There were about ten before; I knew that because I counted each of the people that had come here in the last few hours. They kept changing.Now, I was seeing more faces. I wondered why she had done so. Maybe she knew an escape plan was in place, hence she didn't want to take the chance of us escaping."I do not believe we can get out of
