Ava was silent. She had no idea what to say. She recalled that she started to think that Ian was not that bad at how he pretended or how he got the reputation. But later, after hearing about him from Luke, her mind had changed.

In fact, because of Luke's statements, she could never dare to accept Ian's apologies.

"I know I did wrong. Yesterday I won the match, but I lost your love. I realized that I was never in your heart."

Ava lowered her hands and rested them on her sides. She did not hug him back. He realized it and hugged her tightly.

"I am confessing all of this because I really want to stay close to you. I don't want our friendship to be over, Ava. I said wrong to you that day. I was mad that you chose him over me, forgetting the fact that you were never mine."

Ava felt emotional. She did not know who was wrong now. In this situation, she decided to maintain her silence.

    Ava walked forward, ignoring her brother's table.She was mad at Ian. Not even one day passed, and Ian started to wander around with girls. She laughed at herself in her heart for what she had said to the girls this morning. They might have laughed at her too.She did not care about what others would say, but what about her heart?Did he get so bored with her in just one day that he needed a new girl now?When she was walking past Stephen's table, she heard him."Hey! Ava."She stopped and turned to look at him."Yes?""You can join us," Stephen said.Ronald nodded his head. "Yeah. I think someone needs your company right now."His gaze directly went to Ian after saying that.Ava did not look at Ian. Ignoring him, she said to Stephen,"Brother, I don't want to.""What do you mean? There is still some time left for the classes. Do you have other stuff to do?" Stephen asked while observing her hard expression.Ava almost rolled her eyes at his brother.'What can I expect from him either

His eyes were sharp and cold.She glanced behind him and noticed people who were there, staring at them.Ian followed her gaze and turned his head to look at others."What the fuck are you looking at? Leave."His voice was so cold that everyone shook inside.

She did not want to hide her anger.He furrowed his brows and asked,"What did you say?""You heard me. I don't want to talk to you, Ian."His frown eased as he scoffed and moved back. "I

    When Ava returned home, it was afternoon.The maids rushed toward her when they saw her clothes were drenched."I am fine," Ava said to them.She went to her bedroom and changed her clothes. She rubbed her hair with a towel and sat on the bed.She was very upset. Her eyes were red after crying for a while."I am a crybaby," she murmured to herself.Why would she not cry? Just when she thought Ian was hers, he once again went back to himself. For what? Thinking that she would accept him doing anything?She was not like other girls who would stay quiet and let him do anything he wanted, just to gain the position next to him.She did not want anything except pure love.She remembered how special Ian had made her feel last night. Then why did all of this happen today?It felt like whatever happened last night was a dream that he had broken today.She spent the whole day in her room.

    Stephen gave Ian a nod and left the room. He did not forget to close the door behind.Ava glanced at Ian for a second, then immediately closed her eyes.Ian was standing next to the bed. He was looking at Ava without saying anything.After a while, he reached for the blanket on the bed and covered her body.The moment Ava felt the warm blanket cover her body, she felt relaxed. She felt comfortable and warm.She did not open her eyes, feeling losing consciousness slowly. It was due to her fever and headache.She felt the bed dip slightly beside her. She could smell Ian's scent.Suddenly, she started to feel good inside. Maybe it was because of him.Her heart skipped a beat when she felt Ian's hand on her head.His hand slowly moved to her forehead, checking her fever.She wanted to sleep with his touch. It was so calming that she wanted to pull him toward her and sleep in his arms.Ian lowered his head and muttered close to her ear in a low tone."Are you mad at me?"Her breath hitched

    When Ava opened her eyes, she felt a ray on her face. She had to shut her eyes immediately. She turned around, twisting her body on the bed.Trying to sleep soundly, she tried to cover her face.However, something caught her nose, and that was Ian's scent.She slowly opened her eyes and sniffed her blanket. Her eyes widened when she found Ian's scent all over her blanket.She sat up on the bed and looked around. She found herself alone in the bedroom.She lowered her head. She was startled when she noticed she was wearing pajamas."I-I clearly remembered I was not wearing this before going to bed," she mumbled in a shocked tone.She tried to remember everything that had happened last night.She recalled Stephen coming to her room. She remembered his words, his friends' words, and Ian's presence in the room.She scratched her head, realizing she had misunderstood Ian. At the same time, he also misunderstood her about Luke.She gazed at her pajamas and asked herself,"Who changed my clo

    Ava's heart started to beat faster. She could not let out anything. She almost lost her mind.She could never describe her feelings to anyone.It was something she had never thought of. It was true that she had never thought of this day about how she would react when Ian proposed to her.Ian's eyes were bright with a smile as if he were the happiest person in the world.His handsome face, illuminated by the sun, fell on his face, shining brightly.His voice was loud as if he wanted everyone around them to hear everything he said."I was so foolish to ask the people if you deserve me.”Ava realized that he was talking about the day when he found her as his mate.“The reality is that I don't deserve you. But you still gave this bad boy a chance to get into your heart.”Ava bit her lower lip to control her tears."I am sorry for everything that I have done with you. I am sorry for every single time when I could not realize how important you are to me. I am sorry for not acknowledging thi

When he successfully put the ball inside from a quiet distance, Ava got to her feet with a clap.The boy turned his head to her and smirked at her."Wanna play?"Ava was stunned as she walked over to him. She stopped in front of her and said,"Ian, I can't play. I know nothing about basketball."Ian walked toward the ball that rolled a little far from them. After grabbing the ball, he turned to her and tossed it toward her.She hurriedly grabbed it. The whole court was empty."Lemme teach you then," Ian said, moving toward her.Ava nodded her head with a smi

    Ava folded her arms and rested her back against his car."Surprised? Why? Didn't you see me in Robin's room? Didn't you try to buy me at that nightclub while calling me a whore and a slut? Now what happened? Isn't this who I am in your eyes? That man is going to be my Alpha. Why should I be ashamed to embrace him? He has the right to do whatever he wants with me.

    Freya walked toward Ian and held his arm. It caused Ian to look away from the elevator door."Let's go."He began to walk and remarked,"Never ask me to come here with you again."Freya frowned at him and asked,"But you promised me that you would help me to get back my projects."“I don't need to see your Alpha's face again and again.

She was grateful that he had agreed.Dane said it was nothing to be thankful about. Since everyone was going with their partner, she also had the right to go there with her partner.Ava's daily life was going well because she had not seen Ian again.She felt relieved that Ian did not say anything to Dane about their past.

    Hearing his assuring statements, Freya felt relieved. There was a grin on her face as she gazed at his handsome face.She noticed him raising the bottle and swallowing the drink.

    The night was completely dark. There was no moon to light up the ground. There was only darkness that was engulfing outside.Ian was sitting on the floor, with his back against the bed.There was an empty bottle lying on the floor. He held one bottle in his hand.The redness surrounding his dark orbs was maniacal. He was going through an emotional breakdown. A cold man like him could not cry. But his emotions were visible in his eyes.Bringing the bottle close to his mouth, he chugged a few more gulps. The bitter taste and the high level of alcohol burned his throat.But he did not stop drinking.In the last four years, Ian Dawson had made an image in the werewolf world.

    Because the car was silent, Ronald heard everything. His eyes were on Ian.Ian's eyes grew intense. His one hand, which was gripping the steering wheel, clenched tightly.Ronald's gaze moved to his other hand. His fingers were bleeding.

    Ava said whatever was on her mind and walked out of the room. She felt her cheeks getting wet as she made her way to the canteen. Realizing that she had nearly revealed her vulnerability to the man, she quickly wiped away her tears.Crying was not a sign of weakness. She was in anger and she did not want to burn everything around her. That was why her anger flowed down with tears.She entered the canteen and took a seat at one of the tables.She looked out the window from where she sat at the table.She recalled the incident that happened many months ago.It was a night when she was partying with her friends at a club. It was a birthday party, so they had their own spot in the corner to celebrate while cutting the cake.She was drunk that night.She was not aware that a man was following her.
