Third POVLoud gasps could be heard around Ava. She ignored them and threw the ball in Ian’s direction. His eyes were fixed on her as he caught the ball. His eyes turned dark in anger."How dare you talk to my boyfriend like that?" Nova's angry voice echoed throughout the area.Ava turned around and saw Nova coming towards her with her friends. Abigail and Debra got to their feet and stood behind Ava to support her."What do you think of yourself? Do you even know what he can do to your sudden overconfidence? He can break you in a second and throw you away from this pack," Nova warned Ava.At that time, the referee blew a whistle and told the players to get back to the match as time was running out.He looked at the girls and made an announcement. "If any of you try to distract the game again, I'll throw all of you.""Let's sit, Ava."Abigail grabbed Ava's hand and sat in their earlier place. Debra joined them.Nova glared at Ava for a moment, then stomped her leg to the ground. "The
"Open the door."Ava banged on the door for five minutes, but no one answered."Please open the door. I didn't do anything to you. Why are you doing this to me?" She screamed loudly, hoping that even if Ian did not open the door, others outside the room could help her.However, no one came to help her. She tried to look around, but not a single window was there to let in a little sunlight into the room.She lifted her hands and tried to find a switchboard, but it was too dark to find anything.Outside the room,Ian was leaning against the opposite wall, staring at the door.“Weak Omega,” he muttered under his breath.He was listening to her screams, but he did not open the door.It was her punishment.She needed to know who she tried to mess up with.A ringtone played in the hallway. Ian lowered his head and noticed Ava's phone on the floor. He grabbed it and noticed the caller's name.'ABIGAIL'He did not receive the call. Messages popped up on the screen after the ringtone was turne
In order to reach her neck, Ian deliberately lowered his head. He could smell her. She somehow smelled really good, which he did not expect.But she did not smell the way that unknown girl did. It was not her scent. That was something different and alluring.He was so angry the day he found Ava as his mate that he could not even remember how she smelled that day.But he could not forget that unknown girl.‘How could I even think like that?’ He said this to himself and backed away from the hug.Ava came back to her senses when she opened her eyes and saw who was in front of her."Y-You!"Ian glared at her. "Then who did you expect here?"Ava glanced at the whole room. She was surprised that a window was there. But it was a little far because she could not find it.She began to feel relaxed after watching the light in the room. She exhaled deeply.“Such a weak omega you are!”She heard Ian. She got to her feet right away and looked at him, who was still crouching down and now looking up
When Ian saw Ava in that state, he became agitated.“What happened to your wolf?” Ian asked as he patted her cheek. But she did not respond. She was unconscious.He looked at the door and groaned."Fuck!"He was locked up with an unconscious girl, and he had no phone with him.He put her head on the floor and got to his feet."I have to do something," he said and dashed over to the door.He had no idea what had gotten over him. His heart began to beat at a rapid speed. His wolf began to growl inside, as if he were concerned for this girl.He moved everything from his mind aside and pushed the door with his shoulder.He closed his eyes, and when he opened them, they turned red. He glanced at Ava. His aggression turned into insanity. He growled loudly.He attempted to break the door for the last time, and he successfully did it.He bent down, carried Ava in his arms, and hurried out of the storeroom. He headed outside to the infirmary of the university, which was close to the dormitory
Ava opened her eyes. She frowned when she found herself lying on a bed. She sat up immediately."Relax."She turned her head and saw a cold face. It was none other than Ronald Solace, Ian Dawson's best friend.Ava realized that she was in the infirmary again. She took a shaky breath and remembered what happened when she passed out in pain."How did I come here?" she asked in a low tone."Do you always talk like this?" Ronald asked as he stood up from the stool and took a step toward the bed."Like, what?" she asked."Like stuttering or speaking in a low tone."Ava felt embarrassed. Ronald was right. She lacked confidence in herself. Her mother had always told her to remain calm and talk less to others. As a result, she felt uncomfortable whenever she spoke with anyone other than her friends and mother.She rubbed her forehead with her hand and realized that her glasses were off. She started to search for it.Ronald bent down, and she moved back right away. He picked up her glasses nea
Luke's car stopped in front of Ava's house. Ava turned her head toward him."Thanks, Luke.""You don't have to thank me. In fact, I should have been with you when you were feeling nauseous."Ava felt blessed to have a friend like Luke. He was a really caring boy. He always tried to help her in every situation."Come inside," she asked, though she was not feeling well."It's okay. You need rest. See you tomorrow."Ava got out of the car. She waved at Luke when he drove off.She turned around and walked to her house. She thought her mother was not at home. So she took out her house keys and opened the door.She was about to go upstairs to her room but paused when she heard her mother's voice coming from her room.She walked to her mother's room and stopped at the closed door."Don't try to convince me."Ava heard her mother talking about something. She might be talking on her phone, so she could not listen to what the other person was saying.She did not understand who was convincing he
Another week had passed, and Ava was still unable to shift. The entire week was spent trying to shift while whimpering in pain. She discovered that her body started to hurt every night as if someone were beating her.She was an innocent girl who never wanted bad for anyone. However, what was happening to her was something that she had never expected.One thing that had changed these days was Ian's behavior.Ava noticed that he kept staring at her whenever he was around her. In fact, he seemed to always be around her.She spent the entire week convincing herself that she needed to get her backbone against Ian Dawson. She could not be a crybaby and still have feelings for the man who had rejected her mercilessly and did not care about her life.In the early morning,Ava was getting ready to go to university. She turned her back to the mirror and choked on her own breath.Her bare back was full of scratch marks. It was a mark of claws as if someone had clawed her.She felt pain all night
Ava was shocked when her eyes shifted to Ian. The way he was glaring at that boy who was grabbing her hand, it could make anyone scared. He looked fiercer as if he would kill the boy at any time.The boy immediately released Ava's hand. But Ian did not leave his hand, which shook him to the core.Ian glanced at the other two boys who were behind him. They stepped back and ran away from there in fear.Ian twisted the boy's hand. The boy groaned in pain.Ava was watching everything with wide eyes. She remained standing there without moving. When she heard the sound of a broken bone, she gasped. She immediately grasped Ian's hand."What are you doing? Leave him," she said, trying to remove his hand from the boy's wrist. That boy looked like he was dying.Ian turned his head toward her, furrowing his brow, but he let go of the boy's hand.The boy ran away with his broken hand, weeping in pain.Ava gulped when she saw Ian looking angry."You should have thanked me. But rather than thanking
