Best Friend's Mate CHAPTER 25 - THE CONFRONTATION
Avery's POV“Avery, we have a special job,” Ashley came into the kitchen and said in a hurry.I was able to get a job at the pack casino, I needed a lot of money so I doubled as a chef and a waiter.“What's going on?” I asked, she looked frantic and kind of nervous.“The Boss…the boss is here.” She said cleaning sweat from her forehead.“What boss?” I asked in confusion, I knew the supervisor and we didn't call him boss, so who was she referring to?“The owner of the casino,” she said before dragging me towards the VVIP area which we were told we couldn't enter.“What are you doing? You know we can't enter that place,” I asked bringing myself to a hault and demanding some kind of explanation.“This is the Boss’ special room and we are to go there and serve drinks,” she said in a hurry before dragging me towards the entrance and knocking on the door.“Come in,” We heard from the other side of the door.Just then I realized that I wasn't with any drinks and I wanted to turn around to ge
Best Friend's Mate CHAPTER 26 - AFTER A LONG TIME
Avery's POV “Oh my gosh,” I moaned as my entire body vibrated at the feel of his mouth.“I missed this… I missed you,” he whispered as he kissed me again.“But you…” I wanted to protest but my body was betraying me.“Let's start over, please…” he begged his thumb circling my nipple.“Ahhh…yessss…please…” I whispered, my body had been starved of his touch for so long.I began to unbutton his shirt wanting to feel his bare skin on mine, my hands were vibrating so I was moving slowly, he watched me for a while and then suddenly tore his shirt, he couldn't wait anymore.“Take what's yours,” he said turning over so that I was on top of him.“Do it,” he said looking me in the eyes, tilting his head back to expose his neck.I ignored him and just focused on touching his now-exposed chest. He smirked and tugged at my skirt, it immediately tore open, only when he put the material aside did I notice that my panties were gone too.“Take my trousers off,” he said suddenly picking me up and turni
Best Friend's Mate CHAPTER 27 - REJECTED AGAIN
Avery’s POV“Baby?” He asked again, looking at me like I was crazy.“Yes, baby,” I said looking confused, was I saying anything wrong?“But how?” He asked, standing up and pacing about.“What do you mean by how? This is not the first time we are mating, is it?” I asked, trying to remind him of our first time in case he forgot.“I know it's not but…” I cut him off mid-sentence not believing what I was hearing.“But what?” I asked starting to get annoyed.“It is just too sudden, I am not sure I am ready to be a father,” he said, still pacing about.“But you already have two children, are you not a father to them?” I asked confused at his logic.“I know but mating is one thing, starting a family is another,” he said looking out the window.I was silent, I didn't know what to say or what he meant either.“I haven't even told Avery and Quinn about you, I am not even sure how they will react,” he said sounding distant and lost in thought.“How dare you?” I suddenly screamed, the realization
Best Friend's Mate CHAPTER 28 - KIDNAPPED
Avery's POV“What is going on out there?” I wondered as I got out of bed and rushed towards the kitchen.I heard food steps and halted, who was it and was Ashley fine? I decided to tiptoe out and try to check on Ashley at least.“Almost there,” I whispered to myself as I got closer to Ashley who was on the floor for some reason.Like a flash of light, I felt a hand on my neck, it was choking me and I couldn't see the face of the person.“Make a sound and I will break your neck like your little friend over there.” The voice said, it was a man and I could tell it wasn't Amos, then who was it?“Who are you? What do you want?” I managed to ask but he didn't reply he just kept strangling me until I passed out.I woke up naked on a big bed, I pulled at my hands and legs that were opened then I found out I was tied to the bed.“What the hell!” I whispered as I continued to pull hoping to set myself free and get some clothes.“Stop trying so hard Avery, you'll hurt yourself,” A man said, walk
Best Friend's Mate CHAPTER 29 - LOST CHILD
Avery's POV“What!!!” He screamed looking at me like he could strangle me.“Your father is my mate,” I said silently hoping this would change his mind.“How is that even possible?” He asked in shock looking at me suspiciously.“I don't know but I found out on the anniversary night and…” I didn't go any further, I wanted his imagination to do the rest.“What you are saying is that on the anniversary night… you and my dad…?” he couldn't complete the sentence he just stared at me wanting an answer.“Yes,” I said, grateful that it was all sinking in.“Was that why you ran away and he went crazy?” He asked looking at me in disbelief.“He went crazy?” I asked wanting to confirm if Amos’ story of trying to find me was true.“Yes, that's why he had that accident in the first place,” he answered thinking out loud but soon realizing himself, he directed his question back to me.“So the child you are carrying…” I completed the sentence before he did.“Is your brother or sister,” I said thinking
Best Friend's Mate CHAPTER 30 - THE TRANSFORMATION
Amos’ POV“Avery?” I said hearing my mate call for help.“Where is she?” I asked myself as I rushed out of my office to find my mate.“What could have happened?” I thought as I rushed to my car.I was so lost in my thoughts, that I wasn't paying any attention, I just needed some time to process everything, I know I was being inconsiderate but everything was happening too quickly.“Start you a damned thing!” I screamed as my car failed to start.I went from one car to the other and for some reason, every single car in my garage refused to start.“Damn it,” I said tearing off my clothes and transforming into my wolf form, and running towards the penthouse I left her at.But the more I approached the house the farther she felt, she must have left the penthouse, I turned and began to run in the opposite direction.“I am such a fool,” I thought to myself, after what happened the last time I left her for some time, what made me think I could leave her again?“She probably ran away and got i
Best Friend's Mate CHAPTER 31 - TO BE FREE
Avery’s POV“Oh, sweetness!” Amos exclaimed as I opened my eyes to a very dark room with only a lamp as the source of light.It was very familiar, similar to when I woke up for the first time in The Red Moon pack, I had a splitting headache and my body felt like I had carried an entire house.“What happened? Why am I here?” I asked myself as I struggled to remember what had happened.“What happened?” I asked Amos, wondering why he was here with me, the last thing I remembered was him leaving me with a check and asking me to abort our child.“You can’t remember?” he asked looking confused at my question.“No, the last thing I remember was you leaving me before i woke up,” I said looking at him suspiciously, why was he back and why was i lying down on this strange bed.“Well that is expected after your first transformation, don’t worry it will come to you,” he said walking away and coming back with a cup of water.“What are you saying? What have you done to me?” I asked noticing that I
Best Friend's Mate CHAPTER 32 - LOOSING ASHLEY
Avery’s POV“Please listen to me Sweetness,” he whispered looking very defeated and in pain.“There is no need to push this any further,” I said for fear that if he begged me just a little more my resolve would weaken.“I want to see Ashley,” I said changing the topic even if for a while. I stood up and this time I didn't fall, my body still ached but I could manage it.“I will take you to her,” he said hurrying to my side for fear that I will fall again.“I can walk by myself,” I said removing his hand from mine, looking for some clothes, and walking towards the car.It was a silent ride to the hospital, he tried to touch me but I shied away from it, not wanting anything to do with him.“Ashley!!!” I screamed seeing her take a walk in a hospital gown, I ran over to her and tried to hold her hand.“Don’t touch me,” she whispered removing my hand from hers and looking at me in disgust.“Sis?” I asked, giving her a puzzled look, I didn't understand why she was acting this way.“Don’t ca

Best Friend's Mate CHAPTER 99 - Reading The Diary
Avery's POV “Oh my goodness!” I whispered in shock, using my hands to cover my mouth, who would have thought that my blood could open this diary? I would have never guessed it. The diary opened to reveal a beautiful handwriting, it almost looked like mine, just a little more calligraphic. I immediately forget the pain in my finger and just stared at the book in wonder. “Miss! You are hurt!” Martha screamed in panic, as she literally ran down to where I was, I quickly put the diary to the side, not wanting her to see it at all. “I know you want to be alone Miss, but please just let me disinfect your wound first,” she whispered with concern, as she took a first-aid box and hurried to treat my wound. I was utterly speechless, especially because of the way I had treated her before. She seemed not to care about that and it made me feel a little more guilty. I felt like one of those spoiled brats who treated the help in a very bad way. “I am sorry about how I treated you before, it's
Best Friend's Mate CHAPTER 98 - THE DIARY
Avery's POV “Your breakfast is ready, Miss,” one of the maids said softly, bowing as she spoke. I wanted to tell her that all of this was not so necessary but I knew she would not listen to me anyway so I let it go. “Thank you,” I responded dryly. I wasn't hungry, but I knew better than to refuse the food they offered. Lady Smith would be extremely worried if I missed breakfast, so I asked everyone to leave and sat by myself. “I am at the door if you need anything, miss,” Martha whispered anxiously, she seemed unsettled with leaving me by myself but I needed that alone time. Walking over to my table where the brown envelope was kept, I picked it up and opened the seal. I didn't bring out the files in it, instead, I walked over to the table where a very nutritious breakfast was waiting for me. Opening that file felt like a window into another world and opening it genuinely scared me. “This is really nice, " I muttered to myself happily, as I munched on the scrambled eggs that were
Best Friend's Mate CHAPTER 97 - NO MATTER THE COST
Amos’ POV “I watched her walk away, I watched her leave me,” I mumbled as I ran my hand through my hair. I could never forget that day, it was crystallized in my mind. I remembered standing just behind her and watching her walk towards the train, I wanted to stop her, to hold her and tell her I believed her but I held myself back, she entered the train and it left, that train left with a big part of me, I could feel my heart shatter into a million pieces but this was meant to be, it was the only way she could be free. “I just couldn't let her suffer,” I thought as I remembered everything I had put in place, I had not missed a single detail, not left anything undone when it came to her. I had my niece visit me briefly as she passed through our city the night before Avery left, I had begged her, promising her anything she wanted to be in that train and take care of Avery, I knew she would have been lonely and needed someone in the new city so I made sure she had Ella with her, made s
Best Friend's Mate CHAPTER 96 - STRANGE THINGS
Avery's POV “I just couldn't help it…I couldn't stay away from you,” he whispered, it was the sound of Amos’ voice, I couldn't believe it but the way my body reacted to him confirmed any suspicions I had. “Amos?” I asked, it was a whisper and I was sure I was speaking to myself but I didn't get a response just the feel of his fur on my skin. “I miss you so much,” he whispered as he ran his hand through my hair. “This is a dream so why not enjoy it to the fullest,” I thought to myself, I had missed Amos for the longest time and even if I hated him for what he did to me it still didn't change the fact that he was my mate and we bonded on a very deep level, even if a ceremony had never been done. “I miss you too,” I whispered, letting myself go and hugging him back, opening my eyes, I saw him in his werewolf form. I just laid my head on his shoulder and inhaled his scent. It made my wolf pur…I wanted him in more ways than one. “It's been so long…please,” he begged, reaching for my
Best Friend's Mate CHAPTER 95 - A Strange Visit
Avery's POV “As per our agreement, here is some of the evidence I found, study it and let me know when you are done, there is more where that came from,” Sir Smith said, handing me a big brown envelope and turning to walk away. “I know this might be very transactional to you but just know that I really recognize you as my daughter,” he said, turning slightly in my direction, as our eyes met, I could tell he was being completely honest. “I will bear that in mind, thank you very much,” I responded not knowing what else to say, he just nodded and walked away, I felt touched by their display of love especially since they just met me and knew absolutely nothing about me, although you could say they knew more about me than I knew about myself, giving the big envelope in front of me. I took a deep breath feeling suddenly nervous about the whole thing. I had thought I wanted to know the truth but now that the truth was standing in front of me, I was too scared to take a hold of it. I deci
Best Friend's Mate CHAPTER 94 - A NEW HOME
Avery's POV “Where are you taking me?” I asked the driver as my entire consciousness was alerted, if need be I was going to tear this door open and run away. “I am taking you to the Smith's Mansion,” the man responded. It didn't look like it to me, everything was so suspicious. I tried to open the door to no avail, I had begun to panic, I checked my pocket for my phone, hoping that I would be able to reach Ella and find out the truth. Was the road to their house this strange or was I over thinking things? I needed to find out, but to my utter surprise, my phone was nowhere to be found, I had begun to panic for real and brought out my claws to break open the door and just then the driver spoke again. “We are here now Ma’am,” he said, parking the car in the driveway, I stopped suddenly, looking around me, it took me some time to recollect myself. “Please come down Ma'am, Sir and Lady Smith are anxious to meet you,” the driver said, coming out of the car, walking to the side of my d
Best Friend's Mate CHAPTER 93 - GIVING AN ANSWER
Avery's POV “Good Afternoon Sir and Ma'am,” I greeted immediately I entered through their door, I was trying to be as cautious as I could be, afraid of ruining my plans before I actualized them, their suite had a beautifully designed dining area that was somehow detached from the rest of the suite, it was in such a way that we had access to only that area and not the rest of the suite and we could only see them only if they decided to come to the dining area. My greeting fell on deaf ears because they weren't yet in the dining area, so that meant we had to wait. This was making me nervous, I thought about doing this, and getting it over with but dragging it out like this made me more and more anxious. “Good Afternoon child,” I heard a response after a while, it was the woman, coming towards the dining area with a smile, it looked so beautiful, so pure that if I didn't know better I would have thought it was a true smile but now I knew it was just a cover-up, it was a good cloak for
Best Friend's Mate CHAPTER 92 - A NEW PERSON
Avery's POV “Yesssssss, please tell me,” Ella said excitedly, she had totally forgotten about her food and was concentrating fully on me and what I had to say, I didn't say anything more I just smiled and continued to eat. “Oh come on!” She whined as she grabbed my hand trying to distract me from eating and to tell her why I was in such a different but happy mood. “You will find out later today at work,” I said to her motioning to her food and encouraging her to eat the food she had abandoned, she grumbled but continued to eat with a frown on her face. Jake on the other hand didn't say anything, he just stared at me for a long time and nodded like he gained some kind of understanding. He chuckled at her childish behavior, I was so jealous of how he adored her, if only someone would cherish me the way he cherished her, I didn't dwell too much on that, I already knew what my fate was. “I am leaving now, don't be late for work,” I said to Ella, winking at her, I nodded to Jake befor
Best Friend's Mate CHAPTER 91 - UNKNOWN INTENTIONS
Avery's POV “I know you are scared, I also know that you came here with an intention in mind but, this is life, things change, situations change, it doesn't hurt to try, right?” Ella whispered, squeezing my hands, I looked at her with a sad smile, I knew that my intentions would never change. “I wish I can change my path but I can't,” I said letting go of her hand and walking away with tears rolling down my face, I wished it was possible to be her daughter especially since I hadn't been a daughter to anyone, especially since I had never felt the love of parents but it came too late. It all happened when things had already gone bad when I had crossed the bridge of no return. I kept walking, I didn't know where I was walking to but I kept walking, it seemed I could never escape pain no matter how hard I tried, no matter how happy things had become, no matter how good things were something had to hurt, almost as if I was destined for pain and pain only, I didn't want to live like this
