"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
"Me?" Stephen asked as he looked at Ava."Yeah." Ava nodded her head.Stephen glanced at Ian, whose eyes were fixed on Ava."Steph, don't you know? You should not make a beauty wait," Ronald spoke out.Ava heard it and her cheeks turned red. She lowered her head while waiting for Stephen."Beauty? My foot!" Ian muttered, which was quite audible.Ava's face became upset after hearing him. He was insulting her once again.Stephen got down from the car trunk and said,"Yes. We can talk."Ava looked at him and shook her head. "In private."Now every one of them turned to Ian to look at him. His eyes narrowed, but he remained silent.Stephen swallowed his breath at his friend's enraged expression. However, he was curious as to what Ava wanted to discuss with him."Sure," he replied, motioning his hand in the opposite direction.Then both Ava and Stephen walked to the other side and stood aside to talk with each other.On the other hand,Ian's eyes remained on them."I told you. She has mov
Ava and Ian entered the hall where the reunion party was taking place. They could have booked any hall in any grand hotel, but they always chose this campus to relive all their memories.Everyone turned their heads when the Power Gang and their wives walked into the hall.They were blessed to have their Alpha and Luna around them.Ava looked around before approaching a table with others.Dane and Freya were sitting at the table together. Griffin and Bruno were there with their mates.Ava and Ian took seats across from Dane and Freya."You look hot, Ava!" Freya said."Look who's talking! The biggest model of this generation!" Ava said it back.Everyone laughed as they saw them complimenting each other. There was no jealousy between them. Dane and Ian were also speaking very gently. No one could find any arrogance between them either.Ronald held Abigail's hand and asked,"When will we make a pup? Have you seen how Ivan has grown? He needs a brother or sister."Abigail hit her arm and m
FIVE YEARS LATERInside the master bedroom, Ava was standing near the window.In front of her stood a four-year-old boy. The little boy's head was lowered as he stood there frozen.The sun shone on the boy's face through the window, flexing his handsome features."Ivan, how can you say that to your teacher?" she asked him.The boy glanced at her and murmured, "Mommy, he was scolding me.""So? He can scold you. But you can't just bite him in return.""But Mommy—""Shut up! I will punish you if you do that again."The boy pouted and nodded his head. His gaze shifted to the door and his eyes lit up when he saw a man standing at the door.He rushed to him and hugged his long legs."Dad"He bent down and lifted the little boy in his arms."Who dared to scold my son?"Ava's eyes fell on the man and she placed her hands on her hips and said,"Ian Dawson, your son is getting out of hand. Do you know what he said to his school teacher? He said he would complain to his Dad and his dad would kil
Upon hearing Ian, Ava's cheeks turned red. Experiencing feelings of shyness, she lowered her head.Ian lifted her chin and kissed her softly. His back was pressed against the door as he was kissing her gently.After breaking the kiss, he looked into hers and said,"The kiss was gentle because I can no longer be gentle with you."After that, he lifted her into his arms.Ava wrapped her arms around his neck, stunned by his unexpected action.He pressed her on the bed and got on top of her. She cupped his cheeks and kissed him.Her lips moved in sync with his lips. He licked her bottom lip, as his tongue tried to enter her mouth.She was teasing him, refusing to let his tongue enter her mouth.His hands moved to the back of her dress, pulling the chain down.He stripped off all of her clothes in a minute, leaving her naked in front of his hungry eyes.He kneaded her breasts, which made her gasp. He pushed his tongue into her mouth while running his hand slowly down to her belly.His fing
THREE MONTHS LATER"Ava, it's time."Ava was standing in front of the mirror with two women beside her. One was her own mother, while the other woman was Ian's mother.She turned around to face them."You look stunning in this bridal gown!" Carolina said, kissing her on her cheek."Thanks, Mom," Ava replied.She started calling her 'Mom' about two months ago.Angela embraced her daughter, saying, "I hope you will be the best wife and Luna."Ava nodded her head and hugged her back. Then the two women left the room.There were two other women standing in the corner of the room, looking at Ava from a distance. They were none other than her best friends Abigail and Debra."Are you nervous?" Abigail asked."Of course she is," Debra remarked, laughing.Ava gave them a look and said, "I will tease you both on your wedding days; just wait and watch."They blushed as they knew their wedding date was coming. Since their Alpha was getting married, all of the officials had declared that they woul
Ava took care of Ian for the entire week. Everyone was happy that they got back together.Ian's parents expressed gratitude to her for saving their son. Ava's parents were relieved that she would not have to leave them because she would be with Ian in the future.However, no one talked about the future because Ian was still recovering.Griffin visited the hospital every day to see Ian. He apologized to Ava for his foolishness every day. In retaliation, he came to Ian with a Viola flower, which would help Ian heal faster. Griffin did the same with Dane. He delivered that flower to him as well. He had requested Dane's forgiveness as well as severe punishment.However, Dane stated that he became loyal the moment he put an end to the war.Dane said Griffin could rule the coven. Griffin at first did not agree, but Dane said he did not want to remember the past, so he wanted him to move on.It was late at night when Ava was returning to Ian's cabin in the hospital.She was outside the hospi
The whole room was silent.Dane noticed how protectively Ian held Ava when he pushed her. He shook his head as he grinned. He had always seen Ian's eyes filled with passion for Ava. It was a passion for love, the desire to have her and keep her as his forever.Dane realized that he had misjudged Ian from the beginning. He now realized why he held the top place as an Alpha. It was because he always listened to his heart. He did not think like other Alphas, who always ran after pros and cons.Dane left as he thought his responsibility was over there. Stephen and Ronald were both shocked. But when they glanced at Ian and Ava, they immediately cleared their throats and said,"W-We have some work," Ronald said.Stephen nodded and agreed, "Yes, let's go."They left the room, closing the door behind them.Inside the room,The two people were silent.Ian took some time to process what Dane had said. Didn't he hear their conversation at the party? Then why did he say her heart had chosen him?
It was late at night.Ian opened his eyes as the bright light of the room hit his eyelids. He blinked, trying to clear his vision.He was lying in a hospital bed, surrounded by his family.His mother, Carolina, burst into tears when she saw her son awake. She hugged him and said,"My baby, you have opened your eyes!"His father, Alpha Martin, patted his shoulder, saying,"You are a brave man. I am very proud to be your father."Ian was taken aback by what his father had said. It was the first time he said anything like that. Even when he took the pack business to the higher position, he did not say something like that. Even if he had said that before, it did not seem to come from the bottom of his heart. But today, Ian saw a broken father looking at him with love and concern in his eyes for his son."Mom and Dad, I am fine."He said, trying to calm them down. His eyes moved to his friends who were standing on the other side of the bed.Ronald and Stephen smiled at him, their eyes full
Ian's mother, Carolina, was crying while holding Ian's hand. All the way to the hospital, she begged the moon goddess to save his son. But as soon as he closed his eyes, his body became cold.It was as if she was holding a lifeless body."No! My son can't die."She kept screaming on the way to the hospital. Martin, her husband, continued to hug her and try to calm her down.In reality, Martin was broken on the inside. His eyes were fixed on his son's body.All of his life, he treated his son badly. He never pulled him into a hug and asked him what he wanted.He always referred to him as a bad boy, never questioning why he had become one. He never asked his son what he wanted to be or how he wanted to live his life.Martin felt guilty for not telling his son that he also loved him. The miscommunication between the father and son was never resolved.When they arrived at the pack hospital, Ian's body remained motionless.Ronald and Stephen yelled at the hospital staff to take their frien
Ava was looking at Dane's wolf.She pressed her palm, which had already been cut during the fight. Dane groaned in pain as her blood touched his wound.Ava lifted her hands and ignited fire on them. She touched Dane's wound over his fur with the fire.Ava could not help but feel that she was losing her strength as the healing process took some time to complete.Her eyes were closed as she tried to give her best to heal Dane and remove his poison.When she opened her eyes, they turned black.One hour laterAva was walking back and forth outside a room. Inside the room were Dane and his private physician, who was treating his wounds. She had done what she needed to do. Now the doctor would have to stitch Dane's wound.Beside Ava, Beta Bruno and Freya were standing near the door. Freya was crying. She was concerned that Dane might not make it. She wondered if Ava was really able to remove his poison.The room door opened, and the doctor stepped out.His gaze fell on everyone and he smile
