Amos’ POVAvery, Avery, Avery,” the woman screamed in shock, she seemed to have sobered up.“Somebody help!!!” She screamed again but nobody reacted or tried to inquire what the problem was. They all stood there staring at her as she cried hysterically and ran back and forth in confusion.The woman finally exhausted sat on the floor, she was shaking and whispering some things to herself, she looked like someone who was running mad and looking at her hands, you wouldn't blame her.“My mate is dead,” I whispered as I cursed my fate for always killing my mates.But could I really blame my fate for this one? It was my carelessness, it was always my carelessness. I left her all alone when she needed me the most, I ran away like a coward, and now I had to pay the price.“Cursed,” I whispered as I turned my car around, it was no use entering that house, I wouldn't be able to hold myself together if I did.I drove back home in silence, not able to fully comprehend what had just happened, I ha
Avery’s POV “Why are you here?” The voice repeated harshly as I struggled to see the person or creature speaking to me. “I….I….I…” I stuttered trying to retrace my steps and possibly run away. “Speak up girl,” the voice commanded, scaring me more. At that moment I decided I was going to run away, it didn’t sound like it was a human speaking to me, I knew it was some kind of magical creature because all the hairs on my body stood up and there was a strange aura around. Turning and trying to take off, my hand was suddenly grabbed by some claws and it was digging deep into my skin. “Let me go!!!” I screamed in agony, as I fought to set myself free. The injuries I was sustaining were not my problem, as long as they didn’t affect my face. “You haven’t answered my question,” the voice repeated, I could now see the creature, it was a werewolf. “Why do werewolves keep hurting me tonight,” I thought angrily as I devised a plan to run away from this freak. “Why I am here is none of you
Amos’ POV“Where am I? I asked myself as I found myself in a dark forest.“What is this, what is going on?” I was voicing out all my questions with hopes that something, someone would hear me.I got no response so I kept walking, this forest looked oddly familiar but my memory was still a mess.“Help me Raph,” I begged my wolf but he seemed to be silent.Of course, he hadn’t forgiven me for what I did to our mate, which is another reason I needed to get out of this damned forest, I needed to make things right?Suddenly, I heard the sounds of screams, clanging swords, and roars.I immediately transformed into my wolf form and ran in that direction, I should be running away but my wolf was pushing me towards the chaos.I came to a halt in front of the chaos and realized why this forest was familiar, I had been here before, it was the place where the final battle took place during the insurrection, it was the place where I lost my wife and my Alpha.“No…no…no,” I whispered, how could I f
Amos’ POV“An Alpha of pain and blood,” I whispered as I watched myself run and fall over and over again, my wolf was weak and I had lost too much blood.As I watched myself try to get to the fortress, I tried to remember what happened to the Alpha’s daughter, she was half-werewolf but she was also in the fortress, I didn’t have to wait or think for too long, I watched what had happened upon my return.As I signaled the hidden gong, one of the warriors who was left to protect the pack came out to assess the situation and find out who it was requesting entrance into the fortress.“Amos, is all well?” He asked from afar as he approached me.Getting close to me and seeing my wounded wolf with the crest I held in my right hand, he immediately went on one knee.“My Alpha,” was all he said with his head bowed, I could feel the questions in his gaze when he finally lifted his head.“Gather everyone, only then will I speak,” I said as I felt myself almost fall to the ground, he rushed to catc
Avery's POVI opened my eyes to the flicker of a candle and wondered where I was.“She's awake,” I heard a child scream and run out of the room I was in.I looked around as I couldn't sit up, there was not much to see, just the candle I saw earlier, everywhere was pitch black.“She's awake,” I heard another child say as he sat close to me.I still couldn't see anything, not even the face of the child but I could tell it was a girl.“Mummy!!!” I heard the child scream, I felt a sharp pain in my head and I screamed.“Are you okay?” I heard a woman ask as she turned on a light bulb.I squinted my eyes because of how bright it had suddenly become.“How do you feel?” The lady asked, sitting beside me and holding my hand.“Pain,” was all I managed to say before I passed out.“The pain is what made her pass out again, there is no danger,” I heard a man say and I couldn't even open my eyes because of how my head felt.“Why aren't you doing anything to help her then?” A lady asked, I recognize
Avery's POV“I need to get out of here and quickly,” I said to myself, sleep had immediately left my eyes and my mind was all over the place.Just then this lady returned to the room I was in.“Good Morning, you seem to have made a full recovery, " she said sitting close to me,” Her presence which had formerly been comforting had begun to make me feel uneasy.Maybe it was because of what I heard but I wanted to get away from her as quickly as possible. “My name is Shirley, what's yours,” she asked with a smile, this smile seemed too real and it melted my heart.“My name is Avery,” I replied as I relaxed a little bit.“Where do you come from?” She asked, seeming intrigued, her smile turned into a grin and immediately I remembered what I had overheard.“I don't know,” I lied, reminding myself not to trust anyone, especially someone who was so nice… too nice...“You can't remember or you don't know,” she asked, her smile turning into a frown.“I don't know,” I repeated knowing it sounde
Avery's POV“I knew something was not right about her,” one of the guards at the dungeon I was locked in said.“To think I pitied her,” the other said in response.On my way out of the pack border, I was caught by a guard and now they held me in this dungeon till morning.“Avery!” Shirley screamed as she ran towards me.“Open the door,” she said to one of the guards looking at me with pity.“But she…” the guard tried to explain but was met with a long stare.“The door!” She said out loud and he opened the door without another word.Every time Shirley looked at me, I felt so safe, that I had to remind myself of what I overheard to keep me in check.“What do you want to do to me?” I asked bowing my head and accepting my faith.“What do you mean?” She asked with a perplexed look.“You are the one who tried to run away for a reason I don't understand,” she said with a sigh and a deep breath.“It is better to leave now before I get hurt,” I said, not wanting her to know what I overheard.“
Avery's POV“Avery!” Ashley called as I walked into the mansion.I turned to look at her, this might be the last time I saw her, I mouthed a “thank you” to her with a smile and walked in ready to face my fate.“What is your name?” An elder asked immediately I got in, he seemed to be in a hurry to get this over with.“My name is Avery Winston,” I said in response but as soon as my answer left my lips he was asking another question.“Age?” He asked again, looking more impatient than before.“18 years,” I said more quickly, trying to match his pace.This went on for a while, he was asking basic information questions like my height and I was more than happy to answer them.“Have you met your mate?” he asked and I froze in that spot. I wanted to answer him but for some reason I couldn't, I remembered what had happened, how Amos had treated me from the very beginning, and how he rejected me after we mated.“Avery?” The man questioned bringing me back to myself.“Please repeat your question
