AVERY POV

I didn't think I had ever allowed myself to show weakness like this before. But at this point, I couldn't hide my feelings anymore.

I didn't want to hide it.

I shuddered slightly as Julian pulled me even closer. He didn't let me go or push me away, for which I was grateful.

I cried until the tears stopped coming. When it stopped, I stayed in Julian's arms for a brief moment before slowly unwrapping my arms that were around him.

"Don't," he whispered, holding me to him.

"Don't what?" I whispered back.

"Stay in my arms for a brief second," He whispered again.

It wasn't as if his whispering wouldn't allow people outside to hear whatever we were saying.

They could still hear with their super hearing, except the walls were soundproof.

"Why?" I asked him.

"Why what?" Julian replied.

I knew he understood what I was saying, but he didn't want to answer me right away. Also, he wanted me to hug him longer because I didn't understand that, but I stayed for as long as he wanted.

    AVERY POVJulian didn't return immediately, so I had enough time to do as I desired in the room. I hastily freshened up, washing all the stench in my body from three days ago and washing my hair. I stepped back into the room when I was done, but Julian wasn't still around.I didn't have a change of clothes. I didn't know exactly where I had left the bag of clothes while on the run or if I had even brought it along.I couldn't step out of the room naked, nor could I wear the duvet around me. They'd presume I was mad, and that might even make Sophia insult me more.It was as if she wouldn't insult me if I dressed a little nicely.I walked towards Julian's wardrobe and pulled out one of his dress shirts, reaching just below my knees.Slipping into it, I rolled the sleeves up to my elbow, ran a comb through my wet hair, and let it stay down so it would dry off.I slipped into a slipper I saw by the bedside; I was sure it was Julian's as it was two times my size. I also fell into it, takin

    JULIAN POVWas I too controlling of Avery? I knew I wasn't, but at the moment, I guess she thought I was. I was only trying to protect her.I had her interest at heart. After hearing all the threats from Sophia and James, it was enough for me not to let her out of my sight.Now she was with Jack. I wondered what both had been saying before I arrived."You can't say that to me just because you feel like," Avery glared at me. "I never came here for you to control everything I do!"I was right about what she'd think of what was happening. She believed I was trying to control her movement."It's not called controlling. It's called protection, Avery, and come on." I said, reaching for her hand again.Avery protested, moving away from my reach, "This isn't three years ago. The fact I am here doesn't make me be at your mercy, Julian. I am here for a reason, not just for myself.""Whatever," I murmured, rolling my eyes. I didn't care about the stupid reasons she was here anymore, and she didn

    AVERY POVI kicked at the central table for the hundredth time, wincing as pain flared in my big toe before limping towards the door.I twisted the lock several times, but it didn't give way. I should have known Julian was going to treat me like a prisoner in his pack house.When I saw him on the quest a month ago, I thought he was different. He had smelt different and acted differently, and I felt him to be even more mature and caring.Shit!I was stupid. Now I could see how clearly stupid I was. Obviously, I had thought of all that because I was still stupidly in love with him.He was still the same Julian and would never change, not even now or anytime soon.I hated the fact that he was the only one I could reach out to for help. If it had been left for me, I'd have gone to Jack, but then I doubted I knew where Jack Pack's house was. I needed to get to Julian to see Jack.However, Jason was involved.I walked to the window, parting the curtains. Breathing in and out as I stared out

    AVERY POVJulian was right. I shouldn't have left the room. Now I knew why he didn't want me to leave in the first place.It wasn't just for outsiders, it was for the people in the pack house.But what was I thinking? That I'd be received warmly? I had forgotten how reserved everyone was the first time I had walked.Yes, some had been polite, but others had been weary. Now, I was facing the two people who detested me the most, Sophia and James.They weren't just alone. They must have gathered the pack members and poisoned their minds against me.I let in a deep breath, looking around as they closed in on me."What happened, Avery? Cat got your tongue?" Sophia said.I said nothing. I continued to look for a means of escape. They were just too much. There was no way I could pass by any of them without them shoving me backwards."Oh, don't look scared now, baby," Sophia pouted. "I am sure Julian boo is present and coming to save you soon. Isn't that whom you are searching for?"I said no

    AVERY POVI didn't know how long I had opened my mouth. I was sure it was more than a minute. In all the things I'd have thought Julian would have said, that was the last thing. No, I would have never imagined he would give an announcement to make me his Luna!And he said I was the mother of his son. How did he know Jason was for him? I never mentioned it to him already.I didn't want to, despite our need for his help. It was to punish him for all that he did to me while with him. Even though I knew it would be to my detriment. I was okay with staying in his pack house, under his protection, without him knowing about Jason.But Julian was smart. He must have deduced everything and knew I was punishing him. This was one of those moments when I wish he were dumb.I saw the horror on everyone's face well, except for Jack. He had the same expression on his face. I didn't think he was impressed by what Julian said, but he couldn't object."What?" Sophia exclaimed. "What do you mean by Luna

But do I regret it? No.I couldn't tell what exactly had come over me a few seconds ago. All I could think of was claiming Avery before anyone else did.Before Jack did."I was jealous," I murmured to myself, placing my hand on my chest.Sighting Avery and Jack with Sophia and the members of the crowd had sent a feeling I hadn't thought I'd experience surging into me.Jack had been too close to Avery. I didn't appreciate their closeness one bit. Ever since Jack declared his feelings for Avery to me, I hated the fact that he hadn't let go.He still secretly wanted her, even though he acted cool about being around her. I had seen the way he looked at her.Even when Avery had appeared for the first time a month ago, he had been acting weird, and all he could do was talk about her, even though I war

    AVERY POVI had expected the question about Jason. I knew he was going to question his paternity and forced me to say it out loud to him. I was aware it would be difficult for me to dodge the question.But I never expected a question from Jack. What did he mean by that?It was funny and I couldn't help but laugh.I held my side as I giggled more."What, you think this is funny?" Julian grunted.I nodded, "It is."It was funny. There was nothing, and there had never been anything going on between Jack and me.Jack was like a brother I never had, and he was helpful. Ever since the first time I met him. Even though we didn't have many interactions, he was still much more useful than Julian had ever been.Now, I believe Julian assumed we had something going on. Why would he think that? I didn't know."It isn't funny, Avery, and I am damned sorry. You might not wipe that damned smile off your face.""I'll only do so when you stop asking me ridiculous questions," I straightened and giggled

    AVERY POV"Be right back," Julian said, snapping me out of my thoughts.I rushed after him as he stepped towards the door."What do you mean he stopped breathing?" I asked Jack."I do not know. Aisha called me, and I immediately answered her call. Then I saw him that way," Jack replied."You're not making any sense," Julian stated.I thought I was the only one who didn't understand his words, and I guess Julian didn't understand either. Despite how simple he had spoken, it felt like he had spoken in another language, something gibberish and not English.Jack turned to Julian, and then he looked at me before shrugging."Like I said, I have no idea about what's going on. I tried my best to give him CPR, but he wasn't responding, so I assumed you would know what was happening, hence my reason for coming to you."Jason had barely been sick before. I recalled that he only showed weakness after playing in the rain. He had stayed there for at least an hour, just running and yelling at the da

    AVERY POVI knew it would come to this. The talk about the prophecy and using it against me. I knew all about the prophecy and what had been said because Eileen had told me all I needed to know. However, I wished they could have added why Julian had been a jerk to me.If the prophecy had been all that, why did the family treat me like dirt when they knew Julian and I were supposed to work together? Also, why had he allowed them to treat me in that manner?"And if I refuse to work together with him?" I asked her as if we were in a business together.Julian's mother shook her head. She rose to her feet, walked to the window side, and then returned to where she had been sitting.But she didn't sit. Instead, she stared at me."This isn't what you can agree on, Avery. It isn't a business transaction. You were in his life for a reason. I believe you were created for him—""Unbelievable," I snorted, rolling my eyes. "Of course, the goddess is that jobless to create me so I'd satisfy the urge

    AVERY POVI was pregnant; I knew that. I felt the same way I felt while with Jason. Somehow, during our back and forth, plus Jason's disappearance, I had managed to allow Julian access to my body again.Of course, I know that was stupid, but then he was Julian. I couldn't resist him when it came to that.With my Aversion to food and everything happening, I had wanted to believe it was the flu and it would all go down until I took a pregnancy test.Well, Aisha was the only one who knew about that because she had bought the test and secret and I had told her to keep the result a secret.I didn't want anyone to know, not even Jack.I groaned, rising from the bed.My eyes wandered around the room and stayed on Julian's mother.Since her return, she had been trying her best to get closer to me. Even as I had tried to avoid her, I never let her not have access to Jason.She was Jason's grandmother, and despite how much I loathed her, there was nothing I could do about her. She was the cause

  • Alpha's Regret: Omega Secretary's My Mate   I'll return safely, mother.

    JULLIAN POVAvery was still out, and I hadn't received any feedback on her health yet. I was not currently in the pack house; otherwise, I'd have known how she was doing.But James still kept me updated, even though I did not trust he was in the same place as Avery. Since his arrival here, he had the habit of moving around with the girls. I wondered if he wasn't affected by the fact that we were currently without a packhouse or on the verge of being at war since Emily had decided to wage one at us.Or maybe he was trying not to make our current situation affect him by not thinking about it. My mother was another thing. I hadn't heard about her since we arrived here.She had indulged herself in activities around Jack's pack house. Jack didn't have a problem with her. In fact, he was the one who even recommended that she help out if she wanted to.Jack didn't have a problem with James, either. He only had a problem with me, and that was due to Avery.I frowned as we arrived at what seem

  • Alpha's Regret: Omega Secretary's My Mate   Anything for you

    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 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

  • Alpha's Regret: Omega Secretary's My Mate   Are you sleeping with him?

    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. Then stared at him, poin

    AVERY POVI 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."

    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
