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
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
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
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
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
Avery’s POV“What the hell is this?” Aunty Vivian screamed at me in anger, I was so scared to hand this over to her because I knew she would react this way. “I…I…It is my pay for the day Aunty,” I replied in fear, this was not good at all.“WHAT!!!” Aunty Vivian screamed charging towards me, I should have run away, when I had the chance this morning now she was going to kill me.“How dare you give me something like this?” She continued to scream as she cornered me to a wall.“I…I… I am sorry Aunty, it’s just that….” Before I could finish speaking I felt a slap across my face, I wanted to cry but I remembered that I prepared for this on my way here.“How much is this?” she asked looking at me like she would skin me alive.My aunty couldn’t even count properly, she didn’t know how much I gave her but she was angry because three dollar notes in her hand meant little money.“It is three hundred dollars,” I replied brazing myself for what was coming next.“What can three hundred dollars d
Avery’s POV“A private tutor, could I really be a private tutor?” I wondered as I continued my walk.I thought of what it would entail, looking at the piece of paper again, these were simple subjects, and I could teach them easily. I looked at the paper again to confirm how many hours it needed, five hours was such a long time, and it would mean I would have to quit my other jobs.“I can't do that, Aunty Vivian needs all that money,” I said aloud, thinking of possibly taking this as a second job.Aunty Vivian had me on lock and key, she won't tolerate any form of lateness from me.“How much are they willing to pay,” I thought looking at the piece of paper again, how could I possibly forget that in my present condition?“What!” I screamed on the road drawing the attention of passersby.They wanted to pay me two thousand dollars for each day! Two of my jobs put together could not give me that in one week and they were willing to pay me that for a day? I quickly checked the location as
Avery's POV“Answer me, Angie,” he roared as he walked in front of me.“How many times have I warned you to keep humans out of this house?” He repeated his question wanting an actual answer from her.This man was eight feet tall with dark blue eyes, he was definitely intimidating but I wasn't even scared of him at all.“Angie!” he roared getting more annoyed at the fact that she was ignoring him.“I know, I know Dad,” she pouted as she went to hold him on the waist.I looked at them and realized she was only as tall as his waist, but wait, she said Dad? This man? Her Father? He looked too young.“Maybe she has a daddy kink,” I thought, that was definitely the case, he looked like that kind of man anyway.“But I need a tutor and she is the only one that meets the requirements and she loves lilies too,” Angie said in my defense, trying to convince this man.He growled but didn't say a word, she had won this round.“Dad meet Avery, Avery meet my father, Mr. Amos Stewart,” she said with a
