"I can walk."

Ava said when Dane picked her up in his arms and walked into her house.

He stood near the couch in the living room. Ava's cheeks flushed when she noticed how messy the couch was. She wanted to slap herself for not cleaning it before leaving her house.

Who thought the head Alpha of the pack would come to visit her house?

Dane glanced at her red face, then grinned. He did not put her down on the couch. He made his way to the door of her bedroom.

He put her on the bed and said,

"Let me see your leg."

She blinked her eyes, staring at him without any reply.

He looked into her eyes, which he found really innocent. His eyes then moved down to her body, which was wrapped around with his suit jacket.

He grabbed the stool near the bed and sat on it.

Ava gasped when he grabbed his ankle.

She shook her head and mumbled,

"W-What are you doing?"

He did not listen to her. He took off her high heel and placed her leg on his thigh. When he moved her leg, the suit jacket slipped down from

    Standing on the balcony, a man was gazing at the moon, which was shining so brightly that it was almost blinding. In one hand, he was holding a cigarette, and in the other, he was holding a glass of wine.His gaze was fixed on the moon, and his eyes were sharp as he continued to stare at it. He was challenging his light to shake his gaze.A few light footsteps came from behind as Assistant Neon entered the balcony.He looked at his Alpha, who was looking at the moon. His black attire glowing in the moonlight almost stunned Neon.He had been working with him for three years. All these years, he had never seen him smile brightly. He always looked at others coldly, as if he were not pleased with anyone. He had seen the growing success that he had achieved with the passing years."Alpha."Ian did not turn around when he heard his assistant, Neon's voice.He raised his hand, which was holding the glass, indicating him to continue."Alpha, Gamma Stephen is calling you."Ian moved his eyes a

    Ava did not go to the company today. It was because Alpha Dane had given her a day off.The whole day she stayed at her home. She cleaned her house, thinking about last night. She scolded herself countless times for being so untidy.When she was with her family, she was really caring about these things. But when she left her pack, she felt that she had left herself there. This was a new Ava with a bunch of new habits.She was getting bored in the evening. So she left the house to go to the mall.She was a workaholic. So she did not want to waste her day and went to review different types of fabrics.The mall was full of new collections of fabrics, which came from different packs. The Thunder Howl Pack was doing well in the import-export business.This mall was not like other malls. The entire intention of the shops was to check which products people like to buy and use; after the review, they selected the products of the import business. This pack's exported products were equivalent t

    Ava was in a daze. She felt her patience level was getting lower."Alpha Ian? Is he here again?" she asked."What do you mean? This is the best nightclub in the whole pack. Of course, he would come here," the manager said, sounding a little offended by her question.Ava shook her head and said,"I can't go.""What do you mean? It's Alpha Ian. It's your time to shine in your life. If you can impress him, you know your life can change. A rich man can give anything for pleasure, you know."Ava glared at him. "You would have done the same with Rina?""Of course. I don't think she would be this stupid to reject the marvelous offer. And why are you even hesitating? It's not like you never hook up with other guys. It's just for one time. I am not hiring you forever."Was the man persuading her to sell her body to a rival Alpha so that his club would get closer to the other Alphas out of the pack?She felt it was disgusting.She turned around to go back to the changing room. While going insid

    Ava froze when she realized her heart was not ready to confront him.However, she eventually came to the realization that she was not the one who could be blamed for anything that had happened in the past.Then why would she run away from him?She should stand still and look into his eyes to face him.She took a long breath and slowly turned around.She looked at him and tightened her fists.Ian's eyes were cold, and his face was indifferent.When she saw him moving his gaze from her face to her body, she clenched her jaw.She felt lowly to herself because his gaze was scanning her body in the same way that other men did with prostitutes.But she did not move an inch. She stood there still, staring at him.When his gaze returned to her eyes, she spoke out,"I-Ian–""Alpha," he corrected her."W-What?"He took a whiff of smoke and exhaled it out of his mouth a few seconds later. Then he muttered,"Bow down to your Alpha."His voice was dominant. Her wolf inside almost submitted to him.

    Ian scoffed at her words. It was clear to Ava that he did not believe her."Such an innocent woman you are! You work as a waitress, but you don't even know how to open a bottle of wine?"His mocking remarks hurt her. However, she was adamant to show it through her face.She slowly raised her gaze to look at him. Her gaze locked with his.She gazed into his icy eyes, which had once seemed gentle toward her. She could not believe how much he hated her.It was about two and a half years ago when she almost decided to go back to the Mystic Shadow Pack.It was a night when she was in heat. She wanted to be close to someone. But she did not want to give herself to anyone else. Because she and her wolf both desired him.That night, she was not in her right mind. The emotion inside her was too difficult for her to handle. Even though she knew she could not be with him, she wanted to hear his voice once.Despite changing her phone and SIM card, she could not forget his number. It was as if the

    Ava stared into Ian's eyes. Tears filled her eyes, yet she was stubborn not to reveal her emotions to him.This man was not the Ian who she had known. He had become a whole different man. She felt like this man was someone really cruel. His words were brutal, and they almost ripped her heart.When Ian noticed the tears in the corner of her eyes, his grip did not loosen a little bit. Her tears enraged him more.Did she think that he would sleep with her like other men did?He let go of her hair and said,"What did you think? I call you here to warm my bed?"Her heart ached as she lowered her lashes and moved back.He shook his head and grabbed the packet of cigarettes from the table.He pulled out one and lit it. His moves were quick as if only the smoke could ease his anger.After taking a long smoke inside, he looked at her.She had already gotten off the couch.She glanced at him. After examining her from head to toe, he sneered."I can never desire something like..."He pointed at

    Ava came out of the club. She sobbed while hailing a cab.She got into the cab. When the cab driver asked for the address, she told him the location.During the ride, she tried to keep herself from crying more.She was living a happy life before Ian Dawson arrived and ruined it. Why could he just not let her go?Every time tears rolled down her cheeks, she wiped them.Ian's furious face and hateful eyes started to hunt her inside. She was not used to getting such hatred.'What was my fault?’She did not even cheat on him.Why was she getting such punishments?The cab came to a halt. The driver turned to her and said,"Miss, we are here."Ava wiped her eyes and inhaled. She opened the door and stepped out of the cab.However, she froze when she realized where she had come.She turned to the driver and asked,"Y-You brought me to...""Miss, I asked you twice. You clearly said this address."Ava paid the driver, and he drove away from the area.She turned around and looked at the villa i

    Ava changed into Dane's clothes. The white shirt and black trousers were bigger in size for her body. She managed to wear them by folding the sleeves of the shirt and rolling the waistband of the trousers.When she came back to the living room, she found him leaning against the couch.She cleared her throat. He turned his head and paused his gaze on her."You look good and cute in my clothes," he remarked with a smirk.Her cheeks flushed. She did not respond and walked toward the dining table."Come to have dinner."In the middle of the way, she paused to see if he was following her or not.Seeing that he was approaching her from behind, she continued to walk. She stood beside the table and gestured for him to sit.He smiled at her and stood next to her. She turned to look at him."I talked to Rina a few minutes ago," he said.Ava was surprised to hear that. "I told you not to..."He rubbed his forehead and muttered,"I almost thought about killing her brother so that she would never

    The boy's friends rushed to him and took him away. "Let's go from here. He must be the head Alpha's man. Let's not mess with him."Abigail was not pleased by Ronald's action. She grabbed his collar and pulled him toward her."Why did you do that? He was about to kiss me."He glared at her and asked, "Have you lost your mind? You were going to kiss just a random guy.""So what?" She asked, blinking her eyes to clear her view."Wouldn't it be just a kiss? I have done it before anyway."After saying that, Abigail pushed him lightly and turned around to walk away.However, Ronald grabbed her wrist to stop her. She glanced at his hand and was about to turn to face him.But before that, he spun her around and pressed her back against the railing. "You want a kiss, right?"Abigail was shocked by Ronald's action. "What—"He did not let her speak as he leaned down and pressed his lips against hers.Abigail's eyes widened when Ronald's lips touched against hers. She was already drunk, so his li

    Ian started to walk down the alley. While walking, he kept feeling pain in his arm. He clenched his jaw when he lifted his arm and glanced at it.He saw blood dripping out of the wound. It was so painful that it was making it hard for him to breathe steadily.There was a burning sensation in the wound, which indicated that the knife was poisoned or spellbound.When he recalled how that wizard tried to harm Ava, his eyes darkened. If he had not meddled between them, he would have killed Ava.Suddenly, his phone rang in the silent alley.He took a pause to pull his phone out of his pocket with his left hand.When he saw it was his best friend, he picked up the call."Speak," he said after inhaling deeply.As if Ronald felt something was off with him, he asked,"Bro, what's wrong?""Nothing. Where are you two?""We are in the—"Ronald's voice paused when Ian heard a voice from behind him."Where are you going?"It was Ava who picked up his pace and came to stand next to him.Ian did not

    Griffing moved back along with her. He kicked them in the stomach in defense.He had never imagined that protecting his sister would be so difficult for him. He tried to beat them with his abilities and spells.When the wizards could not move anymore, Griffin turned to Ava and asked,"Are you okay?"She nodded her head in response. Her wrist, which had a small cut, had finally stopped bleeding.She frowned when she noticed Griffin's eyes had grown larger. She turned her head and saw the elder wizard hurry to her to stab her with the knife.Ava and Griffin were too shocked to move, or they could say they were frozen by some spells.Ava shut her eyes to embrace the pain as the death was too close to her.However, before she felt the pain, her body was moved by a hard push.Her body collided with Griffin's and they both fell to the ground.Ava did not know what had just happened."Alpha Ian!"Griffin's scared and trembling voice caused Ava's eyes to fling open. She turned her head and im

    Ian's words caught Ava off guard. The wizards that were holding her hand laughed."You were well-known in our coven. They always said you had something in you that no other Alpha possessed. What about revealing that side of yourself to us?"Ian ignored his words as he stared at Ava. He lifted his hands to feel the circle. But the more he tried to touch the air, the more pain surged through his body.He did not want to feel defeated. In front of him was the love of his life. He had lost her once; he could not lose her again.He clenched his jaw, feeling rage for not being able to do what he wanted.The man Ian had let go a while ago grabbed the wooden stick they had brought to scare the young kid. He then charged toward Ian.Ian was so focused on saving Ava that he did not notice what the man was doing.Ava's eyes shifted to the man. Her eyes widened when the man approached Ian from behind."IAN, WATCH OUT!"She screamed, but it was too late. Because the man had already hit Ian's back

    Except for Ava, who was unable to move, everyone turned their heads.When they saw the dark silhouette approaching them, their eyes frowned.Their eyes widened at the sight of the red eyes coming closer. It was as if they saw a power in those eyes, causing them to shake inside in fear.The man came to stand a few feet away behind Ava and muttered,"Bloody wizards…"Ava's eyes moved as she heard the deep voice. She did not need any time to recognize the voice. His voice formed a hope in her heart to finally get aid in this situation.She still had not turned. Her gaze shifted to her brother.Griffin was taken aback as his gaze fell on the person standing behind Ava. He murmured in confusion,"A-Alpha Ian?"All the wizards around them got alerted as their body was tensed.Ian's eyes shifted to the man who was wrapping his hands around Ava's waist. The man looked frozen. Ian's eyes moved down to the man's hand, and immediately he let out a low growl."How dare you touch her?"The man tre

    Griffin suggested that they go to a club and have a drink. Ava agreed since she also needed to clear her mind.There was a club near the company, but Ava did not want to go because she might run into some of the employees. So they decided to go to a club that was quite far away."Isn't it the north side of the city?" Ava asked when she heard Griffin's suggested club."Yeah, but only wizards and witches go there. That can be our safe place."Ava turned to Griffin, who was sitting next to her in his car. "You almost forget you are a hybrid."Griffin grinned at her and nodded his head. "You are right. I shift a few nights a month. I enjoy my magic more."Ava patted her hand on his shoulder. "You should shift more because who knows when we will need your wolf to take over?"Being a hybrid did not mean only having two kinds combined. Their wolves were also very powerful."Okay, I will shift often."Ava and Griffin went to the nightclub. They got to know new people. Griffin introduced her t

    Ava gave them a puzzled look. "Who?"Debra pushed Abigail and walked over to Ava and said, "Don't listen to her. She is just pulling my leg for nothing. Such a bad friend!"Suddenly Ava recalled the interaction between Stephen and Debra. She wondered if Abigail was talking about him.However, she dismissed the thought because she knew her brother would never chase any girl like that. After all, he was one of the members of the Power Gang. Those boys did not chase women; women pursued them.She was about to ask who it was again, but she stopped by a ringtone. She saw who had called her.She received the call and spoke, "Beta Bruno."Debra turned her head to Abigail, making faces at her. Abigail glared at Debra, indicating not to tease her.Ava smiled when she noticed her friends' silent bickering."Freya is coming back to the pack today. So I am not going to come to the company. Tell Alpha I would spend some time with her."Hearing about Freya, Ava felt awkward. She recalled the day wh

    Ava left the office in the evening. She had nothing in her mind. She only wanted to go home and sleep. She had worked all day and eaten little. Dane's words kept replaying in her head every time she thought about her future.It looked like fate had never decided happiness in her life. All it wrote for her was suffering mentally.She was depressed and alone in this pack.On her way, Griffin called her, asking her to meet him. She refused by saying that she was tired. She said she would meet him tomorrow evening.The sky was slowly getting dark. The orange shadow in the sky faded into the darkness.Ava paid the cabbie and walked toward her house.It was a house with three bedrooms. Dane suggested this house, so she never considered moving out, even though it was too large for one person.She took out the keys and was about to open the door when she heard the sound of another car from behind.She turned around and was stunned.The car stopped near her house, and two people were getting o

    ONE WEEK LATERAva awoke to the sound of a loud alarm. She opened her eyes and did not consider sleeping for a few minutes longer. She sat up slowly, grabbing the phone and stopping the alarm, which would continue to snooze if she did not turn it off.She glanced outside the window. It was early in the morning.Another day arrived, and she had to pass it. She believed she would have to cooperate with her fate without questioning it much.She left the Mystic Shadow Pack one week ago. She did not tell her mate before leaving. That was why her wolf was really upset with her, refusing to shift again.Ava was in real trouble. Her wolf's resistance was really hurting her, making her weak.All week, she could only practice her powers as a witch, but she could not shift and run.The last time she had shifted was when she met Ian and realized that he had become her mate.Ava's phone rang in her hand, drawing her attention away from the window.She received the phone call while getting out of t
