"So here is the deal. I know, I said, I would tell you everything about your parent tonight but truth is, there has been a change of plan and I would like to take you to them instead"
I arched a curious brow at him slightly. "Them? I mean, who is them?"
"Your parent. I will take you to your home and to the rest of your people as they are waiting for you. So come with me. We have to leave before the sun comes out"
He grabbed hold of my hand and was about to pull me along when i felt that very familiar tingling in my body, followed by Sofia's soft whimper and I turned around almost swiftly to catch a quick glimpse of Logan's wolf jumping out of nowhere before it smashed right into Carlos, and putting a couple of distance between us abruptly.
Freaking hell.
Carlos took a stumbling step backward but landed on all four as he had quickly transformed into his wolf form and charging forward, his large canines bare and snapping at Logan vicio
* It's been two days since the incident with Carlos and I haven't seen or heard anything from him. It's as though, he had just disappeared the same way he showed up. Although, Logan had promised to help find my parent, he still hasn't done as much even though he kept saying he was working on it. So here I was back in my room. I had just showered and changed into my pajamas and lying on my back, my eyes watching the ceiling fan above me turning round in slow motion just like my own thought. Deep down in my heart, i want to trust Logan with all my instinct but I also can't help but feel like he hasn't been completely honest with me and also couple with the fact that, Carlos had already made some insinuations about him knowing something and further putting my mind on a total overdrive with more skepticism. Gosh. A little sigh escaped my lips and I turned on my side, my face slightly buried into the pillow beneath me and feeling extrem
*Logan's POVI felt a shift in my mood like a quick jolt and knew almost immediately that something was definitely wrong. My wolf Sam on the other hand didn't just spring back to life like I did but has suddenly become restless at this point as well and was sprinting up and down in my head furiously and almost going out of control.Last time he reacted this way and was on the verge of almost getting out of control was two nights ago when Vega clown was out to lure Avalon away from us but he got us there on time to stop whatever plans he had put forward before it happened but am afraid if I don't take her home soon enough, he would be back again and this time, I might be too late.If I don't find something tangible to make Avalon stay with us before he does, he might be able to convince her more than I could. Heck, I was so close to loosing her the last time that I might not be so damn lucky the next time.Carlos has more leverage than
* Ava's POV ** I sat at the passenger seat in Carlos' car with my head thrown back against the head rest and half asleep. We have been on the road all night without stopping for gas or anything for that matter. It was just us two listening to the horrible music from his FM all night long. My phone hasn't stopped ringing since we left. Each time the screen come up, it was either Logan calling or leaving me a message to text him my whereabout. I want to do that which he asks of me yet I find myself doing the exact opposite so I decided to turn off my phone at some point before placing it into my jacket. At the rate he was calling throughout the night, I bet he totally lost it the moment he realized my phone was now dead and he couldnt reach me any more. Aside from my own patchiness, I could already feel Sofia getting more than quiet in my head ever since we left town. She has refused to speak with me and I can't
*I had just finished showering and even went in for number two then got out into the bedroom only to realize there is no single clothes here for me to wear.The wardrobe was totally empty and the clothes I came with was still downstairs in Carlos' car. Meeting and talking to the Luna had made me to forget to retrieve it from the car earlier.It was either i put on my pajamas again or just wait around for someone to show up and help me get it.Darn it.Feeling hungry and frustrated, I plopped down on the bed with my feet dangling over to the floor and began to swing it back and forth like a little girl in distress.While waiting, I thought about turning on my phone for a moment but decided against it. Logan would be waiting and knowing him, he must have been tracking my phone by now and turning it on would give him signal to come looking and that could only spell disaster for everyone.I will just wait and call my parent with Ca
*Lily actually came through for me and handed me some of her dresses to pick from. After sizing up a few, I decided to settle for a black lacy gown that flowed just below my knees and matches with my ankle boots perfectly.Carlos was with us the whole time that I couldn't afford to get Lilly to talk to me about my parent or anything else that would put her in an uncomfortable position with Carlos or anyone else.Turns out Lily is Carlos' mate.These two have been mated for a while now. Since our high school and that was the reason he left me in the first place. He found out his best friend was his bonded mate and not his girlfriend.The irony is cheek cracking I know but the moon goddess is impeccable in her decision making when it comes to picking a mate for her favored.Now that I think back to how it all happened, everything was right there. The early bonding and all round butt sniffing.Anyways, i'm happy Lily wasn't just a
"Come child. Come closer let me have a closer look at you" The king Alpha had beckoned on me with an open arms, very much to my surprise.Well, looks like I judged him a little too early and harshly fellas. For a moment there, I thought he didn't like me from the cold looks in his eyes and now he is welcoming me with open arms.Is he freaking bipolar or something?Anyways, i nodded slowly at his request and took three steps forward and stood in front of him and he got up from his chair and walked towards me and took me by the hand before turning them over to look at my knuckles and even caressed at them.Creepy if you ask me but I kept my cool and held my breath and waited while he kept going. I mean, he was the freaking authority around her and probably got the right to sniff people hair as well even though it makes them totally uncomfortable.The room was totally quiet as he continued to access and examine me under his scrutiny. After a whi
*Carlo's wolf continued to stalk towards me with paws light and careful against the bare floor like a predator after its prey.I took a step backward, my right hand going forward to stop him if he even think about coming any closer."Stay away from me" I growled at his wolf and it came to a stop a few distance from me with a low growl of his own before it shifted back into his human form with his hands held up in surrender."Calm down Ava. I can explain, just listen to me alright? I know you are upset right now but I can totally explain. Just give me a chance"I scoffed at him, "you had enough chance to explain things to me all these damn time but what did you do? You choose to lie instead. You must think me to be a fool didn't you?, brought me all the way here just to find out the same freaking truth you would have told me back in my room the night we left. I mean, how long were you planing to keep lying to me huh? How long? Maybe for ever
*Carlo's POV"Are you sure, you are ready to hear the truth about the man responsible for the death of your parent? Because it's going to be a lot more complicated than you think Avalon" I asked her again just to make sure she was really ready to hear the truth."I don't freaking care how fucking complicated it is. Just tell me what I need to know" she sneered at me through gritted teeth and I just nodded.Even though we were standing in the dark, I could tell from the look in her eyes that she wasn't just furious, Avalon sure as hell looked like someone who is willing to go against all odd just to bring whoever made her an orphan to the stake and that's totally good enough for me."As you wish princess. According to what I was told by my parent. The man who led the attack on our pack that night was none other than Maximiliano Romano himself. At that time, there was an ongoing dispute over our neighbouring borders.
