After leaving the library, I made my way to the cafeteria in order to meet up with my friends.

While heading there, I saw boys glancing at me. I tried my best to avoid their gazes. Why did they not just focus on their own business?

I entered the cafe and noticed my friends sitting at a table. I smiled at them while striding toward them.

"Hey!"

"Ava, where were you?" Luke asked while sipping on his coffee.

I sat down on a chair next to Abigail. She moved a cup of coffee toward me, indicating that it was for me.

"I was in the library," I replied to Luke.

"How is everything going at home?" Abigail asked me.

"Very good. Mom bought a wedding dress for her last night."

"Wow! Show us the picture of the wedding dress," Debra said with excitement in her voice.

I unlocked my phone and showed them the picture of my mother's bridal gown. They said it was a really beautiful dress.

"Will we not get the invitation?" Luke asked as he rested his chin on his palm.

"Of course we will. I can't wait to se

    Third POV"First tell us what you were doing in the library," Ronald said to Ian.Ian turned his head in the direction of him. Ronald looked at him with a smirk on his face."Yeah, I have never seen you go to the library before," Paul said as he agreed with Ronald."Are you starting to get interested in books?" Cyrus said with a chuckle.Ava, on the other hand, felt awkward in the conversation with the boys. She did not know them much. She thought about leaving. But before she could say anything to Stephen, she heard a female voice.“Ian?”When Ava turned around, she saw Nova approaching them from the opposite direction. She noticed that Nova's gaze was drawn to her. A frown appeared on Nova's face. Afterwards, she looked over to Ian.“You are here! I was looking for you on the whole campus,” she said as she approached Ian and embraced him.Ava averted her gaze from them.Meanwhile, Ian rolled his eyes when Nova hugged him."Why were you looking for me?" he asked Nova.Ava was stunned

Abigail and Debra were in the car as well."I want to scream with joy. We will have fun tomorrow," Abigail screamed in a happy tone.Ava chuckled at her and turned her head toward the backseat since Abigail and Debra were both sitting in the backseat, and she was sitting in the passenger seat beside Luke, who was driving the car."Hope we will," she muttered."Babe, please stop acting like a nerd and try to buy a sexy dress for you," Debra said, wiggling her brows with a smirk.Abigail hit her head lightly and said,"It's her mother's wedding, not a bache

She looked really happy with Gamma Harper.'Dad, I fulfilled my promise today,' Ava said in her mind.Her father's face came to her mind. Tears formed in her eyes as his death was reflected in her eyes."I'm coming in a few minutes," she said to her friends.

    Ian, did you just see?" Nova asked as she turned her attention to Ian after Ava had left.Ian puffed on the smoke and asked, "What?""Didn't you see how she was talking? She used to be a shy and ugly girl. After becoming the Gamma's daughter, she... she has become pre–""Pretty?"Hearing Ian, Nova's eyes widened. She frowned and shook her head."What? No! She has become pretentious."Under the moonlight, Ian's face was clearly visible. He looked at Nova, but his eyes were fierce."I-Ian..""Stop bothering her. She is not ugly but only pretends to be one."Nova gasped at his words. Ian indirectly meant that Ava was beautiful in his eyes."Why are you saying this? Do you remember how you insulted her at the whole university? She is an ugly nerd and will always be."Ian grabbed her arm and pulled her to him. She was scared by his sudden action. She glanced at the cigarette that he was holding between his fingers. That was close to her arm."Stop making me remember the things that I want

    Abigail and Debra were both observing everyone. So when Carolina asked the question to Ava, Debra replied to her."Yes, yes. They are really close."Ian's friends cast glances at Ian, who appeared to have lost his appetite.Ronald chuckled and said,"Yeah. They even changed the dress code."Abigail took the opportunity and explained,“As we can see, they are matching today. In fact, Ava herself gave this suit to Luke as a present for this wedding.”Ava was surprised as they were thinking about it so far. Though both of their dresses’ color was the same, she did not mean to match with Luke. It was just a coincidence.So Ava tried to say something."No, it's not–"Luke cut her off and said to Luna Carolina,"She is a soft-hearted girl. That’s why she gave me a present."Alpha Martin laughed when he heard Luke.“I like you, young man. What is the name of your father?”Luke cleared his throat and replied,"Alpha Limon."Alpha Martin and his officials, including Harper, raised their brows.

She stood there for a while and enjoyed the sunlight falling over her face.Just as she stretched her arms, she whimpered in pain.She rubbed her upper back with the back of her hand and strode to the dressing table. She turned her back to the mirror and rolled up her top to see her back.She shut her eyes when she found the scars like tree branches. She felt pain in her back again.She bit her bottom lip and let out a shaky breath."When will I get rid of this?"No matter how much she wanted to forget about the rejection, the pain and these scars, they would never let her do so.She tried to ignore her pain and went to the bathroom to take a shower.She looked around the bathroom, and a small smile reached her lips.She stepped into the bathtub

    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

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.

    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.

    "Ava, why did you decide to leave now?" Ava's mother, Angela, said with tears in her eyes.When she and Harper returned home, Ava said she was leaving tonight. She was shocked to hear that, as well as Harper."Mom, Dad, I told you that I would be here for my birthday. My birthday had passed, but I remained here for the competition. Since everything is over now, it's time for me to return to where I belong."Her voice was calm, just like her face. There was no emotion in her eyes that could show her inner feelings.Angela wondered if anything had happened to her daughter. She had spent her entire life protecting her daughter from the Thunder Howl Pack, convinced that Alpha Dane would force her into a relationship. However, after learning that Ian had rejected her daughter as her mate and that Dane treated her gently, Angela realized Dane was the ideal match for her. Ava and Dane were fated, and her ex-husband's decision was not wrong when he promised to marry Ava off to Dane."If you n

    Dane's eyes darkened as soon as he heard Ava.Ava observed those eyes and scoffed at him. "What happened? Lost all the colors from your face?"He clenched his jaw and grabbed her arm, pulling her closer to him."You can't be with him."Ava looked into his eyes, noting his fury. "What's wrong? Why didn't you think about it when you spent the night with your mate?"Dane tried to compose himself, losing his grip on her arm. “Look, Ava. I never slept with her after we broke up. She tried a few times to seduce me when she was drunk. I always ignored my wolf and the desire to be close to her. But I lost myself in front of my wolf last night.”He let go of her arm and cupped her cheeks. She looked away from his face. Not wanting him to touch her, she attempted to push him once more.Her eyes landed on the hickeys Freya had purposefully left visible in his chest.If Dane had said that everything Freya said was a lie, she would have ignored it. But he himself admitted everything.Now what woul

    Ava was in a really bad mood because she thought last night she almost cheated on Dane. She should have managed to stop Ian from kissing her or getting close to her.So today, in the early morning, she left her house only to confess what had happened and apologize to him.However, as soon as she saw Freya, she was shocked. Her shock turned into the endpoint when she heard Freya's words."Your m-mate? What are you saying?" Ava asked Freya with a confused look.Freya gave her a poker face. "Don't tell me you don't know that Dane and I are mates."Ava felt the ground slipping beneath her feet. She could not just believe it.Freya and Dane were mates?How come she did not know about it?Freya noticed her expression and scoffed at her. "Why do you think my brother despises you so much? Because you snatched his sister's mate away from her. You destroyed my life, Ava. I was so happy with him. But you entered our life and ruined everything."Ava blinked as she did not know what to feel. When

    In a large bedroom,A woman was lying on her back, wrapping her body around a quilt. She opened her eyes and tried to move, but her bare arms brushed against a body, sending her butterflies in her stomach.She cleared her view and turned around to look at him. A smile was on her face, which indicated that she was pleased.She lifted her hand and caressed the face of the handsome man who was sleeping next to her. Her fingers brushed against his cheek.His brows furrowed in response. She hurriedly moved her hand away. She looked at her hand, assuming he was uncomfortable because of the bandage.She breathed deeply, inhaled his scent, and hugged him.The man finally opened his eyes. She smiled and rested her head on his chest, saying,"Good morning, Dane."He stared at the ceiling without responding to her. It was like he was in an inner conflict. Her smile faded when she observed him.She moved and sat up, holding the quilt against her chest.She hissed when she felt pain in her bottom.

    Ava completely lost herself as soon as Ian moved his head and began kissing her back.She was in a moaning mess. She had no idea how he made her feel that way just with his kisses.As he rolled his tongue over her upper back, he gradually moved it down to her waist. Her eyes were tightly closed because she did not want to experience this sensation.However, her toes curled when his hand reached his ankle, moving inside her dress.Her dress slid up to her thigh, revealing her fair legs.Ian had already gone insane. He was no longer under control. He did not want to either.He kissed the back of her neck, turning her on. He flipped her body and looked at her.She looked fragile, ready to get ruined by him.With a slow motion, he swept his thumb over her lips."These lips are mine."He looked down at her body. Her dress loosened due to the back chain being opened, revealing her half breasts.He leaned down while looking into her eyes. He moved his lips on her half-exposed breasts and sai
