Ava Chapter 1
The woods were scary, but she had to be brave. It was long past her bedtime, so it was dark. She had been fast asleep in the back of the car when she woke up to the loud bang. Then she saw them. The monsters.The monsters standing over her father’s body.She did what her father had taught her to do in this situation. She quietly slipped out of the car and started running.“Hey! Someone’s seen us!”It didn’t take long for the loud footsteps to follow her through the trees. The darkness and shadows cast by the full moon looked like predators ready to pounce on her, but she couldn’t close her eyes to make them go away. She had to survive. She tried to stay quiet as her dad had taught her. Step lightly. Change direction. Try not to leave too many tracks. But their long strides were fast and quickly catching up to her little ones. The forest was eerily quiet. All she could hear was her thundering heartbeat, harsh breaths, and the monsters behind her. It was like everything in the forest a

Ava tried to suppress the dread filling her as she sat in the back of the taxi, but she knew she was failing miserably. The taxi driver was some sort of supernatural, so he could probably sense everything. She knew that not because she had suddenly developed any enhanced senses overnight but because they were the only ones allowed to ferry the new students from the airport. Phoenix Academy was in some super-secret location that humans were not allowed to enter. She almost snorted at that. If that was true, they should never have insisted on her attendance. She should have been allowed to go to a regular college like any other nineteen-year-old human who’d survive the torture of high school. But no, she had to attend this place with all sorts of supernatural species who could kill her without a second thought if it wasn’t for the fact that it was forbidden.There were several branches of this academy all over the world to accommodate all of them, and she still didn’t know which one sh

Zeke Michelson buttoned up his shirt and tried to tune out Claire’s voice in the background. He didn’t give a shit about whatever she was complaining about. They had only been here a few hours, so only the Moon Goddess knew how she had found so much to complain about in the first place.He put his tie on and straightened it before he ran a hand through his still-damp hair.“Are you even listening to me, Zeke?” Claire whined.“No,” he answered as he turned to pick his blazer up. He held her gaze, daring her to complain about that. But Claire lowered her eyes and kept her mouth shut. Her blonde hair fell over her face as she sat naked on her bed. For a moment, he considered rejoining her because the woman knew how to use her body to please him. But she was already too clingy; he didn’t want to give her any more ideas.He left her room without a word, ignoring the shocked looks he got from the female residents of this dorm. But none of them would dare to report him. He was the future Al

When it was her turn, Ava finally lifted her head and looked towards the indicated room. She took a deep breath before grabbing the handle of her case and wheeling it behind her.A woman was seated behind a large desk when she let herself in. She didn’t even look up when Ava closed the door and left the bags just inside. The woman was typing something on her computer, and Ava took the opportunity to study her.Because she looked a little older than most supernaturals, Ava couldn’t tell what she was or if she was supernatural at all. She didn’t have the pale skin the vampires did, so she ruled that out. She dressed elegantly, and her greying hair was in a professional bun on top of her head. The name badge on the desk said, ‘Mrs. Benton, Student Welfare Coordinator.’Ava stood nervously in front of the desk, unsure if she was to just sit or be polite and wait for an invitation. With nothing in her hands now, she could only wring them together while waiting for Mrs. Benton’s attention.

Zeke looked at the offerings set out for the buffet with disappointment. Though all of it was quality food, as was expected at this academy, considering the amount of money most of them had to pay to be here, none of it smelled as amazing as whatever had been prepared earlier.“Have you changed your mind?” Derek asked as he loaded a plate full of food.Sighing, he picked up a plate and put something on it without paying much attention to what it was. He seemed to have lost his appetite without the delicious offering he had been looking forward to. When he picked up a bottle of water as well, he looked over at his usual table and saw Myles already sitting there with a group of girls—Claire’s group of friends. The three girls went everywhere together and always forced their company on them, as if Claire was trying to pair up her friends with his, too. They turned up at every single place they went—like magic. The girls never ate in the cafeteria, so he could only guess that somebody ha

Ava woke up with a start and looked around the dark room. She felt disoriented until she remembered the nightmare that had become her life.There was a lamp on the table next to her bed, so she felt her way in the dark and put it on. When she looked around, she realised she was still alone. It looked like her dorm mates hadn’t arrived yet, which was weird. She was sure they said everyone needed to be on the premises by three in the afternoon, and it was long past that now. There were three other beds in this room, each with a side table on one side and a desk and chair on the other. On her desk was a laptop and what looked like a tablet. Those had to be the electronics she had been told about by Mrs Benton. Then, separating each space were big wardrobes. On the other end was the kitchen area, which didn’t look like much at all. Just a counter with a microwave on it, a small fridge under it, and a small sink to the side. There was a small table and two chairs in front of it. She woul

Zeke shifted in the woods behind Jared’s house and snarled with frustration. What he wanted... What he needed was on that dick’s property. The scent was so strong here that Shadow was going crazy trying to cross the boundary.He usually had a tighter grip on his wolf than this, so it occurred to him for a second that maybe he needed to worry. It had taken years of work to get that unstable beast under control.But that scent... He was with Shadow on this. They had to find it.So he jogged back to his house and entered through the back doors. Myles and Derek were in the lounge with a group of girls who were definitely not wolves. He ignored their questioning looks when he strode past them naked. He didn’t give a shit that his junk was swinging all over the place in front of strangers. Other wolves wouldn’t have cared, but he felt the girls eyeing him as if he were their next meal. Derek found him as he was putting a shirt on.“Are we going somewhere?” he asked. “Just me.”He didn’t wa

Ava didn’t feel even a bit self-conscious as she wolfed down the food on her plate. It hit the spot; all the spots. She was sure she moaned as the juicy steak went down her throat. It was better than any steak she had ever eaten. Okay, maybe this guy had the right idea by getting his party catered. She was a convert.She peeked at him from under her cap and found him watching her, tracking her movements. Like the wolf he was. She suddenly remembered where she was as she looked around for a napkin. But there was no point. She was still eating; it was inevitable that it would go all over her face.“I’m sorry. I’ll wipe my face after I finish eating,” she said.The wolf laughed, a hearty sound that brought more attention to her. The party guests hadn’t stopped watching her since this Alpha had brought her out here.“Eat however you want, Red. As you can see, nobody gives a shit around here.”When she looked around, she noticed that even though the others kept looking at her, they were al

Ava Chapter 134
Their voices were distorted and echoed like they were in a tunnel. They all sounded far away. Ava’s thoughts whirled in her head, making no sense. Her heart pounded against her chest so loud it was all she could hear. She turned away from them to open the door, but it wouldn't budge. She was trapped. And they were still speaking to her, surrounding her, their concern heavy in the air. How could she feel that?"Let me out!"She couldn't tell whether she screamed it or said it. The three men in front of her stepped back and looked at her as if she had grown three heads. What her dad had said was impossible. That nightmare started after she had been nosy and read the newspaper articles about the time her birth father was murdered and those dismembered bodies were found in the forest. It had nothing to do with her. Impossible. She had been six when the police found her. Six! Alpha Roland might have believed that her wolf had forced a shift and saved her, but even he'd never heard o
Ava Chapter 133
“Yes, Mr Michelson. So please sit down, and let’s talk about Ava.”Ava stopped inspecting Zeke’s throat to look at Mr Patrick. Why did he make that sound so ominous, as if he thought something was wrong with her?“The day is almost over. We need to talk about the Head of Council and what he wants,” Ava insisted as she went to take the seat next to her father in front of Mr Patrick’s desk. “The longer I watch you, Ava, the more I’m convinced I know what they want,” Mr Patrick said. Zeke sat beside her, meeting her gaze curiously before they both turned to the professor.“And that is?” she asked.“The purpose of this school isn’t just to keep people in line and equip the future leaders with the skills to lead,” Mr Patrick said. “They also root out their future assets and their future threats.”“And what does any of that have to do with me?” she asked in exasperation.“Shall I make a list?” Mr Patrick said. “You’ve made several trips to the infirmary where they never found any injuries
Ava Chapter 132
Zeke watched Alpha Morgan walk out of the dean’s waiting area, but Ava remained standing in the spot. Her heart rate had elevated when she saw him, but it wasn’t out of fear. Her mouth had dropped open slightly, and her cheeks were getting flushed. He had expected this. Mated wolves tended to hide away from everyone while their bonds strengthened because the pull towards each other was insane. It was why they had a whole ceremony first and then arranged their lives accordingly. They didn’t do it on a whim during the academic year without the blessing of their Alpha.Still...He bit his lip to try to stop his smile as he stood and walked towards his mate. She sucked in a breath when he took her dainty little hand in his. Could she feel it as strongly as he did? That jolt of electricity down their bodies? The sparks when they made contact?What would have made this even better would have been the mind link. There was nothing more intimate than being able to share even your thoughts wit
Ava Chapter 131
The drive to the Administration block was the most awkward thing Ava had ever lived through. And that included that one time in high school when a bunch of wolves had taken her clothes and all the towels in the locker room while she had been showering after gym class. Not a single person had come to her aid when she’d shouted for what felt like hours, including the teachers with their super-sensitive hearing. She’d had to wait until after lessons, when she had assumed the students had gone home, to try to find something to wear in one of the classrooms. Only the school hadn’t been quite as empty as she’d thought. She’d barely snuck out of the locker room when the students had filed out of the classrooms. Dozens of them laughing at her as she stood naked in the hallway. Nudity meant nothing to them, but because she always hid her body, they used that to bully her.She had all her bits hanging out and had been laughed at for weeks, but that embarrassment was nothing compared to sitting
Ava Chapter 130
No amount of washing in the lake would erase what they had done. Zeke had never felt such peace, and Shadow was the most content he’d ever been.He sat on the bank, letting the sun dry his body as he watched his mate swim back to him after she had washed herself.His scent was all over her. And there was that subtle change in her scent, the way wolves changed scents once they mated. Once they were bonded for life to one another. Everyone would know, even if they didn’t see his mark.He couldn’t help but grin as she came out of the water and instantly tried to hide from him. “My father’s going to kill you. And my brothers,” Ava stated.That was actually a possibility. He’d defiled their little girl in all sorts of delicious and decadent ways.“He’ll love me.”That was probably not true. Ava’s family may have already heard of him and his beast, like every other pack. They wouldn’t want their fragile girl anywhere near him. But it was too late because she belonged to him now. “We bett
Ava Chapter 129
She couldn’t think.His lips... His hands... Everything about him was turning her inside out. He kept kissing and sucking on that spot on her neck that seemed connected to more intimate parts of her body, and she just couldn’t...She couldn’t think.But she was angry with him and needed to say her piece. Did he say he wanted to mark her?Her eyes widened, and she pulled herself out of his arms and rushed over the ridge in the clearing. She didn’t look at the lake as she walked down to the grassy bank where they had their picnic. Her heart slammed against her chest as she processed his words.“What do you mean? You can’t mark me! You’re an Alpha!”But even knowing that, she couldn’t put out the fire he had lit in her body. It was all around her, pulling her towards him even when she needed an explanation. Zeke followed her, his eyes burning for her and his breathing uneven. His intentions were obvious. One more touch, and she wouldn’t be able to think anymore. “Stop!” she ordered.He
Ava Chapter 128
Zeke was still trying to figure out how his father would retaliate when he located Ava just in time to hear her conversation with that Alpha. He’d been relying on Shadow’s senses to track her down, so he hadn’t made it to the Administration block until the Alpha was lying in a rapidly forming pool of his blood at Ava’s feet. The sight slightly satisfied his blood lust, but the piece of shit still had a heartbeat. Shadow wanted to rip him apart for stepping up to his mate like that. He should have listened to his son’s warning, but that boy had got things completely wrong. Ava wasn’t under the Blood Moon Pack protection; she was under his. There is a very big difference. A deadly difference.When Ava started running, he followed, knocking her pursuers out of the way. He didn’t stop when they screamed and didn’t care if they got hurt as he kept his sights on Ava ahead of the crowd. He could see how fast she was going, which was much faster than any human he had ever seen. Either the co
Ava Chapter 127
Ava could only guess how Mr Patrick and her dad would prepare her for this meeting with the Head of the Council, which was never going to happen.They were crazy. As if she was going to stick around for that death sentence. Her father had dropped her off at the Administration block so he could drop his stuff off and see where he was staying for the next few days. People were still arriving for the weekend, so the whispers and looks from guardians and students were constant. She ignored them all as she crossed over to the fountain. She and her dad were going to eat while he extracted the whole story from her. She’d only told him and Mr Patrick the highly edited version. There was no point getting him too upset.Especially since a lot of it involved Zeke. Zeke, who’d had a mate waiting for him this whole time. Her fists clenched, but she took a deep breath and calmed herself. All of this would be over soon. There was no point in getting angry. She would never have been with Zeke, anyw
Ava Chapter 126
Ava didn’t even know what the program for the day was beyond what Derek and Myles had told her. She couldn’t even remember when she had last looked at her tablet and had no idea where her school bag was. As she walked up the path leading to her block, she saw Emily standing with a man and woman who looked like her parents. Her shoulders were tense as she listened to whatever they were telling her. Once the Omega lifted her head to look at her, the fear and panic were instant, and she lowered her gaze immediately. It was her that Emily was scared of this time, not Zeke. She could feel it. “I think we need to go somewhere we can talk privately,” her father said.She hadn’t realised she had stopped to look at the wolf who would always rub her the wrong way. Her father was looking at her, too.She avoided Alpha Roland’s gaze as she walked into the First-Year building and straight for the notice board. Her father hadn’t stopped looking at her since they had left the house, but she could
