Everyone was shocked. Abigail and Debra both had their jaws dropped in shock. Debra blinked her eyes as she could not believe Ian had come to this classroom just to sit with Ava. Not only that, he spoke so politely!

Meanwhile, Ava was stunned by Ian's words and actions. She was avoiding his gaze. She clutched Debra's sleeve and mumbled,

"Don't."

Ian cast a glance at her hand, which was holding Debra's sleeve. He raised a brow and murmured,

"I think I spoke too politely. That’s why you are not moving."

Abigail cleared her throat, signaling Debra. Debra immediately got up and said,

"Sure, you can sit here. I have no problem sitting next to Abi. I was sitting there a few minutes ago anyway."

After that, Debra let out a small chuckle and proceeded to the bench, where she sat down with Abigail. It caused her sleeve to slip away from Ava's fingers.

Ava looked at her friends, and then at others. The girls were staring at her, giving her looks.

She tightened her fists and turned away from the

    Ava inhaled deeply and then turned her gaze to Ian's face."Nothing happened."Ian stared at her for a while, then nodded his head in response."Okay. I believed you."Abigail and Debra glanced at Ava as they had been listening to them from their seat.They gave Ava a confused look. Ava shook her head, indicating that she did not want him to remember anything.Ian did not try to speak with her again. He turned silent, fixing his gaze on the projector where the professor was showing something to the students.Ava's gaze moved down to the bench. She noticed Ian's hands resting on the bench. His tattooed hands were only half visible.She studied the new tattoo carefully. She was drawn to the sun and moon in the tattoo, despite the fact that she could only see half of it."Your new tattoo..."She paused when she realized she had broken the silence on her own. She bit her tongue.Ian rolled up the sleeve of his jacket and showed her the tattoo. Ava almost lowered her head to see the tattoo

    "I mean, he was drunk, so he said that out of the blue."Luke's frown eased as he said,"Oh. That's okay then."Ava nodded her head and looked away from him. She bit her bottom lip, not knowing where to start.She felt him touching her hand. Luke held her hand and asked,"Do you want to say something? I am your friend before I become your lover. You can share it with me."Ava looked at him and took a deep breath."Luke, there is something I really want to talk about.""Yeah, sure.""Luke, I can't-"Ava was interrupted by a ringtone coming near them. Ava turned around to see a boy running toward them, handing Luke a bag. The ringtone was coming from inside the bag.That was Luke's bag. He thanked the boy before pulling out his phone.Ava could see the name of the person who called. It was his father's call. Luke received the call."Hello, Dad."Ava lowered her head as she moved her feet across the floor. She could hear his father's booming voice speaking to him."Yeah, Dad. I remember

    Ava was shocked for a moment. Ian saw her surprised look. Grabbing her hand, he drew her closer to him.She tried to free her hand, but he had already put his helmet on her head."I do not have another one, so you can use mine."Ava grabbed the helmet and removed it. She handed it to him and stepped back."What are you doing? I don't want your helmet."After giving her a frown, Ian threw his helmet to the ground.Upon seeing the helmet fall to the ground behind the bike, Ava let out a gasp of surprise."What the hell!"Ian shrugged his shoulders and replied,"You didn't like it, so I threw it."Ava noticed that everyone around them was looking at them. She moved toward Ian and mumbled,"Look, Ian. I am not interested in going anywhere with you. Now give my phone back to me. Your best friend said it's with you."Ian reached into his pocket and took out her phone."This one?""Yes!"Ava tried to take it from him. But he raised his hand, making it impossible for her to grab it. She made

    "Yes, now you can't run away from me," Ian replied, winking at her.Her mouth dropped open in surprise. "Have you gone crazy? You took me outside of our city! For what? Just to get you a present?”With a look of complete innocence, he nodded his head. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She was losing her mind.How could she not have realized how far they had come? How long did she ride with him on the bike? Was she so engrossed in his alluring features that she did not notice how far they had come?Ian dragged her into the shopping mall. "Stop overthinking. You are with me. So I will take you back to your home. No need to worry."Struggling to calm herself, Ava inhaled deeply.Following a brief glance at his hand, which was holding hers, she turned her attention to his face.He removed his sunglasses and folded them before tucking them into his t-shirt.He was perfect.Unconsciously, she reached out to her hair and combed it with her fingers, thinking that she looked terrible

    With the glass box in their possession, the employees made their way to the reception area.Ava looked around while heading to the reception. He glanced at Ian. He was using his phone for something. With a throat clearing, she uttered,"You need to get a chain as well. How are you going to wear it?"Ian looked at her and shook his head. "It will come with it," he replied."Oh."When they arrived at the reception area, the receptionist smiled at Ava and handed her the bag. After taking a peek inside the bag, Ava removed the bill to make the payment.As soon as she looked at the bill, her eyes grew wide in shock.It was very expensive. It was greater than the amount that her mother earned in a single month.She scolded herself for coming there. She did not expect the pendent would be this costly.She glanced at the bag, thinking about what she would say to Ian. It was his birthday present. How could she tell him that she did not have that much money? The thought of having to unpack it e

    Ian brought Ava to a restaurant. It was half an hour away from the shopping mall.Ian pulled out a chair and motioned for her to sit. His unexpected calm and gentle demeanor astounded Ava.As if he noticed her questioning glance, he said,“I am not this gentle. It's just that I am trying to be patient with you."Hearing him, she looked away from him and replied, "You don't need to. Just be who you are."He raised a brow and looked at her with a sly grin."You will flee from me if I begin to be myself in front of you. I don't want to scare you."She glanced at him, swallowing her breath. He signaled to her to place an order by pointing his eyes toward the menu card.Ava looked at the menu and realized it was quite an expensive restaurant. However, she could afford the prices of regular dishes, so she pushed the menu toward him and said,"Order what you like."He grabbed the menu and nodded his head with a smirk.She wondered why he was smirking. What was on his mind?He called the wait

    It was evening when they arrived at a club. Ian assured her that he would get her back home before her parents left. So Ava was relaxed.After he parked the bike, they strolled together in the direction of the club's gate.The guards stopped Ava, but when they noticed Ian was behind her, they nodded their heads at him.They were about to hold Ava's hand to place a seal on her wrist; however, Ian grabbed her hand and pulled her beside him."No need to seal her hand. She is with me. Isn't it enough?" Ian asked them.The club guards exchanged glances before nodding at Ian."Yeah, sure."They stepped aside, allowing Ian to enter the club with Ava.Ava was new to club things. She only went to parties hosted by her friends or Stephen. They usually turned their places into clubs.Ava cast a glance at the people who were dancing wildly. The smell of liquors was stronger. The music was loud, but not throughout the entire space.With a quick glance, she noticed a dancer pole dancing in one area

    Ian's hands froze around Ava's cheeks when he heard her. He was kind of in disbelief."What did you say?"Ava removed his hands away from her cheeks and replied,"You heard me right. I don't need to repeat it."He frowned at her. "Why are you asking something impossible?"She laughed at him. "Something impossible? The boy who did not consider the possibility of destiny before breaking the mate bond now speaks of impossibility. Nice joke, Ian."Ian stared at her for a while without saying anything, as if he were processing her words in his mind."Are you asking me to lose the match so that Luke can win it?"Ava's brows lifted by his question. Though Luke needed to win the match, she did not have this intention before saying that.She just did not want to trust Ian. That was why she asked him something that he would not do.It was really impossible to lose the final match for Ian Dawson. It would destroy his reputation on campus.Ava believed he would not do that for her. In fact, no on

People clicked their photos together and uploaded them on the internet.The second one was Ava with Dane. People started gossiping about them. They were stunned that their gamma's sister was dating their rival Alpha.Whom would the gamma choose if one day a battle broke out? His Alpha or his future brother-in-law?Someone clicked some photos of Ava with Dane. They even uploaded a video of their closeness, which looked quite intimate.They were outside Dane's car, hugging each other tightly. The video also included footage of their noses brushing against one another.

    After parking his bike inside the garage, Ian was about to exit. His steps halted as he turned to look at the broken sports car. Every time he looked at it, all he could think about was the pain he had endured following the accident. He recalled how he secretly hoped to see Ava again, but she never came back. This car used to increase the hatred for Ava in his heart.But tonight, he regretted it.He regretted all the times he thought he hated Ava; he regretted the times he thought she cheated on him.His legs moved toward the car. He lifted his hand and reached out to touch the cracked windshield. He let out a low groan as he caressed it with his fingertips.There was blood streaming from a cut on his finger. It was the same hand that had been wounded on the knuckles. He looked down at his fingers. Suddenly a memory flashed in his head.He recalled how Ava was hugging his leg, begging him not to leave her when he found her in Robin's room. He even called her names and said that her pl

    Dane's words surprised Ava. "Never forgive him?" she mumbled.Her thoughts reverted to the regretful eyes. Ian looked really regretful about the misunderstanding."Yes, don't forgive me. Never. He made you suffer for all these years. I do not want you to forget everything and start acting as if he had never done anything wrong."His words compelled her tender heart to change her mind.Dane was right. She should not forgive Ian. He broke her heart numerous times, and she should never forget it.She nodded, causing her nose to brush up against his again. "Okay."Dane's eyes flickered as if he was satisfied with her answer. He leaned in closer, shifting his gaze from her eyes to her lips.Before his lips could touch hers, they heard giggles. Dane turned his head and looked to the side.Ava blinked, her cheeks flushing red. She cast a glance to the side where Dane was looking. She saw a few girls holding their phones as if they were clicking their pictures and recording videos."L-Let's l

    Ava spent some time with her friends, ignoring the conversations between her and Ian popping in her mind. Tonight she felt as though something heavy had been lifted from her heart.The fact that no one would accuse her from today made her very happy.She was free.She had no fear of humiliation.Sitting on a couch, Ava looked around the hall. She had been looking for Dane since the moment she returned. However, he went somewhere, and she was unable to locate him. She expected to find him later, after spending some time with Abigail and Debra.But it had been half an hour and Dane had not yet returned."Are you trying to find Alpha Dane?" As she followed Ava's eyes, Debra inquired.Ava gave a head nod. "Yeah. Where is he?""Maybe he left the party," Abigail said.Ava turned to look at her. "Left? No way."Ava took her phone out of her bag to call Dane. However, she was surprised to see Dane's message.She read the text in silence."I am outside near the car. You can enjoy the party and

    The doctor appeared to be stunned. Sweat broke into his forehead as it rolled down his face, reaching his neck.He glanced at the man lying like a dead body on the hospital bed. He looked pale, losing nearly all of his blood. The large amount of equipment next to the bed suggested that he might be receiving serious medical attention.The doctor inhaled deeply before speaking,“Alpha, Robin has been in this state for three years now. You wanted to kill him. However, after that, you chose to punish him with something more lethal than death.”Ian's eyes flashed as he recalled how he did not let go of Robin years ago. He indeed tried to kill this man. But he did not do that when his father arrived to stop him.Though he used to believe that Ava had cheated on him, there was a thorn in his heart that always told him that if this man did not exist, maybe everything would be fine in his life. He could never forget that he dared to touch Ava in spite of knowing that she was his girlfriend. He

    Ava left the room, leaving Ian alone. It was exactly like that day in Dane's company.A tear rolled down on his cheek as soon as the door shut from outside.He stared at the door without blinking.How badly had he screwed up?There was no way to get out of the guilt?How much did she have to suffer for him?What could he do to win her forgiveness?Was there a chance for redemption?What he did was not a mistake, but a sin. He doubted a girl who used to love him truthfully. He accused her of infidelity. How did she feel at that time when he turned his back to her?What a loser he was!He closed his eyes, and more tears flowed from his eyes. He never imagined he would cry for anyone one day.Suddenly he recalled what Ava mentioned in the game. It was all Robin's plot against them.When he entered Robin's dorm that day, he noticed Ava wearing his shirt and having some hickeys on her neck. He tightened his fists, thinking Robin had touched her inappropriately.Once again, the realization

    Ian looked into Ava's eyes. As deeply as he looked into them, he searched for love for himself. However, the harshness of her eyes did not allow her to reveal what it was that he desired to see."Ava," he mumbled.His eyes became blurry, and he was unsure of how the feelings that were brewing in his heart had made their way to his eyes. He did not want to let them flow out.She shook her head, letting go of his wrists. She wiped her tears and said,"Ian, you should have distrusted me just like you did years ago. Now, there is nothing to apologize for. You did what you did. You almost ruined my life. But..."She paused, lowering her gaze from him. She closed her eyes. A small smile appeared on her lips, causing him to frown."But what?" he asked, hoping that she could still give him a chance to let him explain his heart."But in my broken state, someone else trusted me and gave me a new life. And... I am with him now."Ian's eyes darkened as soon as she talked about another man. He kne

    Ava blinked her eyes, unable to believe what she had just heard. She felt him resting his head on her shoulder."I am sorry. I am your culprit. Punish me."She felt his voice moving her hair, touching her ear. Her eyes started to hurt inside. Her heart was pounding so fast that it seemed like it was about to burst at any moment.Wasn't it what she wanted four years ago? She wanted him to say those things when she was crying days and nights for him to return to the pack, and she said herself that everything he said was only out of anger.Four years....Every single day of her suffering was reflected in front of her eyes as she stared at the door without moving.Tears rolled down her cheeks. She felt she could not breathe.Even though she had only spent a few days with him, she was thrilled and enjoyed every moment. She was crazy about him and always dreamed about him.Even today, when she thought about the days, she could only feel pain, as if it were raw inside her heart.The memories

    Ava was taken aback to see him in the room. She frowned at him with cold eyes.Ian's back was pressed against the wall. It was as though the wall was supporting his body. His face was nowhere near to match his appearance.His eyes were bloodshot and red. But if anyone observed him carefully, they could see the sorrow inside them.However, Ava had no intention of observing him. She walked in his direction, reaching for the door so she could leave the room immediately.There was no way she could be in the same room with Ian Dawson.Just as she reached the door, Ian raised his hand to block it. She moved backward by one step."What are you trying to do?" she asked.He did not reply as he remained silent.Her eyes fell on his bloodied knuckles, which almost widened her eyes. However, she was able to keep her emotions under control and asked,"What happened to your hand?"His eyes moved to his wounded hand, then he returned his gaze back to her.He let out a hoarse voice when he spoke up.
