Bullied By My Four Mates Chapter 27: What Now?
AVAOnce Jacob and Alex had left, Leo and Izzie quickly excused themselves too with dirty smirks on their faces.“What now, Ava?” Theo asked.“I could go for a swim. Want to come?”“You’re meant to be taking it easy, Ava, swimming isn’t easy,” Callum’s voice was angry.“Swimming is low impact. I’m not talking intensive lengths, I’m talking relaxing in the lake.” I paused for a moment to talk to Artemis. “How are my ribs looking?”“All healed, Ava,” she was skipping around excitedly.“Oh Artemis, I love you!”“Awww, Ava,” she smirked.I turned my attention back to Callum. “Artemis says my ribs are healed, I’m all good to go.”“Ava, the doctor said 24 hours.”“He said until I’m healed, Callum.”His face said he wasn’t going to give.“Fine, would it make you feel better if I get doc to x-ray my chest?”He nodded.“Fine, come along you lot.” I rolled my eyes.Callum insisted on driving, so we reached the pack hospital in no time at all.“Alpha Ava, are you okay?” the doctor called out.“I

AVABy the time we’d all wrapped up round one, it was late. We made our way back to the Beta’s house since Callum and Oscar have the biggest bedroom, not expecting that all of the pack’s senior wolves would be sitting in their living room having drinks when we walked in.“Ava!” Alex called out, face amused. “Why don’t you join us for a drink?”I growled at him through the mind link, making him snort.“Come on Ava,” Jacob added. “One drink for our young Alpha.”I rolled my eyes. “Fine. Alex, if I’m hungover for our run tomorrow, it’s your fault and I will not hold back when we spar next after your ribs have healed.” I gladly took the rum Jacob was offering me, still scowling at Alex when I sat down in between him and Jacob.“How are you feeling now, Alpha Ava?” the pack gamma, Jamie, asked.“All good, Gamma Jamie. Ribs are healed and everything. Confirmed healed too since this lot,” I motioned over my shoulder to the twins, “wouldn’t let me swim without an x-ray, so I got an x-ray.”Th

AVAI woke up sweating a couple hours later. Callum was hot, really hot.“Artemis…” a new voice whispered. “Help me.”My eyes snapped open, trying to identify the voice. Callum? Surely not. His birthday was still months away.I rolled over to face him, to see sweat pouring down his face, his face contorted in pain.“Callum,” I stroked his hair reassuringly. “It’s okay, I’m here with you.”I nudged Oscar awake. “Oscar, get me a clean flannel and a bowl of cool water.”“What?”“Now, Oscar.”He turned the light on, running down the stairs.“Callum,” I whispered. “You’re okay, I’m here with you. Your wolf is coming early, but I’ll help you through it, okay?”He whimpered. Oh this was awful to watch.“Ava…” he groaned, grabbing my hand, his eyes flying open.His wolf’s eyes were bright green, a beautiful colour, but the pain in them was awful to see.Once I had the cool water, I damped the flannel, using it to wipe Callum’s head, cooling him down. “I’m here with you, I promise,” I whisper

CALLUMI woke up dripping with sweat and in agony to the sound of another voice in my head. It was awful, uncomfortable, and just really unpleasant. If Ava hadn’t been there to help me through it, I don’t know what would have happened.When I shifted, it was like there was a string tying me to Ava. I didn’t want to be away from her. I don’t think it was a mate bond, we were both too young to recognise our mates. But… there was definitely something there. I planned to talk to my dad in the now I could through the mindlink.When Ares told me he wanted to hunt for Artemis, I wasn’t sure what to think, and I definitely didn’t think he’d go for a deer. Artemis insisted on sharing the deer with him, and he practically melted, rolling around in my head with happiness.Ava and I made love as the sun rose, before shifting back to run to the training ground.I wanted to meet Lloyd.Somehow, despite our distractions, Ava and I beat my dad and Alpha Jacob to the training ground, so we settled dow

AVA“That explains it,” Alex murmured.“Is he freaking out because Artemis didn’t say it back?”“I think Ares is, I’ll be honest.”I bit my lip again, before talking to Artemis. “How do you feel about Callum and Ares?”“I want them around, I miss them right now. More than anything, I want to go roll around with Ares. I’ll be honest, Ava, I’m freaking out.”I sighed before looking back at Alex and Jacob. “As Artemis just put it, she wants them around, misses them, and more than anything, wants to roll around with Ares. But she’s freaking out. I’ve slammed a block down on my emotions to try to stop them bleeding through to Callum.”“I think you two are mates, Ava,” Jacob’s voice was low. “All the things you’ve described say he is your mate. Lycans are rare, really rare. I don’t know how that would affect the mate bond. Perhaps on his birthday, it will fully click into place?”“Maybe,” I shrugged.“I’m curious to see if you react in the same way to Oscar when he gets his wolf, Ava. Twins

AVAI wasn’t sure what, but something was telling me that I needed to run back to the pack house. So I did.What I didn’t expect to see was two almost identical wolves staring back at me. “Oscar,” I whispered through the link. “You’re stunning.”Both Oscar and Callum were sandy brown wolves with bright green eyes, there were just subtle differences. Oscar’s fur was speckled with darker brown hairs, much like his hair in his human form, and Callum was very slightly taller. Callum’s wolf eyes had a blue ring around the irises, just like his human did.Artemis sat down on her haunches, a little confused. There was a bond there with Oscar too. When she closed her eyes and we just felt for it, it felt like I had two gold threads, one running to Callum, one running to Oscar.I shifted back, sitting cross-legged on the floor. Oscar’s wolf trotted over to me, and lay his massive head down in my lap. I reassuringly ran my fingers through his fur, revelling in how soft he is.“Oscar, can you sh

AVAThe three of us ran together, jumping over and into each other, all laughing over the mind link. We slowed to a stop when we reached the pack house and saw Callum and Oscar on the stairs.Once we stopped, the three of us shifted back, but not by choice. It was like something yanked Artemis back, leaving me (and Theo and Noah) face down in the mud.“Fuck,” I swore, rolling over and wiping the mud off my face.“Ava!” Callum shouted. “Are you okay?” He ran towards me, pulling me up to stand.I nodded, and when we touched, it was like a jolt of power moved through me into him. His eyes immediately flared gold, and he fell to his knees. “Ares is trying to shift,” he growled, fighting it.“Callum, don’t fight it, let it happen, baby.” I fell to my knees in front of him whilst everyone watched the display. Even Jacob and Alex were on the steps of the pack house now.He shifted, and he had completely changed. His wolf was now midnight black, the same colour as mine, his eyes gold, and on

AVAAfter dinner, my new King Consorts joined me in my parents’ living room with tea and cake. Mum and dad looked nervous, really nervous.I put my plate back on the coffee table, cake half eaten.“Mum, dad,” I whispered. “What’s going on?”“Ava… I’m sorry we kept things from you… but I promise, we’ll tell you everything now.” Mum was almost crying as she spoke.When they felt my aura start to suffocate the room, Oscar and Callum took my hands, calming me instantly.I took a deep breath, before sitting back and nodding for her to start.“The first thing, sweetie, is your name. When you came here, we started using a shortened version of your name to make it easier to keep you safe. You go by Ava Wright, but you were born Avelina Wroblewski.”“I knew that,” I whispered. “Artemis told me.”They didn’t need to say anything for me to know that my eyes were shining gold.“How long have you known?” Mum’s voice was quiet.“Since I was ten.”“Ten?! You didn’t get Artemis until you were thirtee

CALLUMThe aroma of freshly brewed coffee wafted through the air, mingling with the scent of pine from the surrounding forest. I watched as Ava cradled her mug, her green eyes sparkling with a lightness I haven't seen in weeks. The weight of her crown seemed to have lifted, if only temporarily."I can't believe we have to leave today," Ava sighed, her curly brown hair still tousled from sleep. "This getaway has been exactly what we needed."I nodded, feeling a pang of regret that our time here is coming to an end. "It has. You needed this, little one. A chance to just be Ava, not Queen Avelina."Oscar chimed in, his tone playful. "Yeah, no royal duties, no political manoeuvring. Just us, the beach, and s'mores by the campfire."Theo snorted, a rare smile tugging at his lips. "Don't forget the skinny dipping."Noah nearly choked on his coffee, laughing. "How could we forget? I still have sand in places I'd rather not mention.
Bullied By My Four Mates FOUR KINGS FOR CHRISTMAS - Chapter 8: Reflections in the Sea
AVAI dug my toes into the warm sand, relishing the sensation as I looked out over the sparkling ocean. The rhythmic crash of waves provided a soothing backdrop to our little beach paradise. Noah's strong arm wrapped around my waist, pulling me close."Penny for your thoughts, my queen?" he murmured, his breath tickling my ear.I leaned into him, savouring his warmth. "Just thinking how perfect this moment is. All of us together, away from the pressures of the Kingdom."Theo approached, his blue eyes twinkling as he handed me a fruity cocktail. "Careful, or you might get used to this life of leisure."I laughed, taking a sip. The sweet, tangy flavor danced on my tongue. "Don't tempt me. I might just abdicate and become a beach bum."Oscar's voice rang out from where he and Callum were setting up a volleyball net. "As if you could ever abandon your duty, Ava. It's too ingrained in you."His words, though teasing, held
Bullied By My Four Mates FOUR KINGS FOR CHRISTMAS - Chapter 7: Adventures in Paradise
AVAThe flames of our bonfire danced against the night sky, casting shadows across the sand. I leaned back, feeling the warmth of Callum and Theo supporting me as Noah and Oscar stretched out across my legs. The ocean's rhythmic waves provided a soothing backdrop to our quiet evening."Look, a shooting star!" I exclaimed, pointing upward.As the streak of light arced across the heavens, I closed my eyes and made a silent wish. Please, let there be a way for me to have a child of my own. To have a family with these four incredible men I love."What did you wish for, love?" Noah asked, a teasing lilt to his voice.I opened my eyes and smiled mysteriously. "You know I can't tell you that. It won't come true."
Bullied By My Four Mates FOUR KINGS FOR CHRISTMAS - Chapter 6: Reconnecting
AVAThe sizzle of bacon filled the air as I stood over the hob, wielding a spatula like a scepter. It had been a long time since I'd cooked anything myself, and the familiar domesticity warms me more than the heat from the stove."How's it coming along, love?" Noah's deep voice rumbled against my ear as his arms encircled my waist. His lips brushed my neck, sending a delightful shiver down my spine.I leaned into his embrace, savouring the moment. "Mmm, perfectly crispy. Though I might burn it if you keep distracting me like that."Noah chuckled, his chest vibrating against my back. "We can't have that, can we?" He gave me a final squeeze before moving away to pour coffee.I returned my focus to the bacon, flipping each strip with practiced ease. The aroma was intoxicating, reminding me of lazy Sunday mornings from my childhood. Before my world expanded to include four incredible mates and an entire kingdom."I vote we make this a weekly tradition," Theo piped up, sliding past me with
Bullied By My Four Mates FOUR KINGS FOR CHRISTMAS - Chapter 5: Departure and Revelations
AVAI stared at my four mates in disbelief, my mind struggling to process their words. "A week away? But I can't possibly…"Callum's warm eyes met mine, gold flecks shimmering as he stepped closer. "Ava, love, we've arranged everything. Michael's agreed to cover your duties.""But the kingdom…" I protested weakly, even as a part of me yearned for escape.Oscar's playful smirk cut through my objections. "It’s sorted, I promise. Jeremiah and the Queen's Guard are on board too. They'll be coming along to keep us safe and sound."I felt a gentle brush against my mind;Theo, working to reassure me. His deep voice rumbled, "We've packed your things. You don't need to worry about anything."
Bullied By My Four Mates FOUR KINGS FOR CHRISTMAS - Chapter 4: A Royal Decision
THEOThe weight of silence hung heavy in Callum's office, broken only by the occasional creak of leather as we shifted in our seats. My eyes drifted from face to face; Callum's furrowed brow, Noah's clenched jaw, and Oscar's distant gaze. The air was thick with unspoken worry, all of us grappling with the same gut-wrenching concern.Ava."We can't go on like this," I finally said, my voice rough with emotion. "Ava's struggling, and we're all feeling it. We need to do something."Noah leaned forward, elbows on his knees. "Agreed. But what? We've tried everything the healers suggested."I ran a hand through my hair, frustration building. We're supposed to protect her, to make everything right. But how do we shield her from h
Bullied By My Four Mates FOUR KINGS FOR CHRISTMAS: Chapter 3: The Recurring Nightmare
AVAThe empty cot loomed before us, a stark reminder of my failure. Noah's hand trembled as he reached for a tiny onesie, his blue eyes glistening with unshed tears. Oscar stood frozen, his usual warmth replaced by a hollow emptiness. Theo's jaw clenched, his protective instincts rendered useless. And Callum... Callum's anguish hit me like a physical blow through our mental link.I wanted to scream, to rage against the unfairness of it all. But my voice was trapped, suffocated by the weight of our grief. The nursery, once a symbol of hope, now mocked us with its cheerful yellows and greens. Stuffed animals looked back at us with lifeless button eyes, their plushy arms forever waiting for the embrace of children who would never exist."Ava! Ava, wake up!"Callum's voice cut through the nightmare, dragging me back to consciousness. I bolted upright, gasping for air, my cheeks wet with tears. His strong arms encircled me, his scent grounding me in reality."Shh, it's okay," he murmured,

Two Weeks Ago…AVAI gazed out over the balcony, the cool night breeze ruffling my curls as I took in the twinkling lights of the city below. So much had changed in just a few months."Quite a view, isn't it?" Noah's voice came from behind me as he wrapped his arms around my waist. I leaned back against his solid chest, savouring his warmth."It's breathtaking," I murmured. "I still can't believe this is real sometimes."Theo appeared at my other side, his eyes gleaming in the moonlight. "Believe it, my queen. We've all worked hard to get here. You especially."I reached out to squeeze his hand, feeling a surge of pride and affection. "We certainly have."
