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.

    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.

    When Ava opened her eyes, she found herself in an unfamiliar room.She sat up and rubbed her eyes.She looked around and realized that it was her new bedroom. She had shifted to her new home last night.While yawning, she walked to the window. 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

    She rolled her eyes and got in the car. He sat in the driver's seat.Before starting the car, he handed her a box."What is it?" she asked."It's for you. Open it."When she opened the box, she saw sunglasses."I thought you would wear your big nerdy glasses again, so I bought them for you."Ava put on the sunglasses and turned to him. "How am I looking?""Boss lady. What about joining my gang?"Ava coughed a little. "Sorry, bro. I don't like your leader," she replied sarcastically.Stephen gave her a nod and started the car."I'm sorry, Ava, for what Ian did."Stephen could only say sorry to his sister. However, he knew that his apology would not make her feel good. He believed everyone should move on in their lives.When he stopped the car, everyone began to glance at it, especially girls. The only reason he drove this car here was because he wanted to make his sister feel special.He put on his sunglasses and got out of the car.He went to open the door for Ava.Ava started to feel

    Ava did not like the attention she was getting from other people. She kept avoiding other people's gazes all the time she was at the university.Although her friends said she was looking good, she was a shy girl and could not just change her attitude over the night.When she returned to her new home, she found the house empty. She realized her parents had not come back yet.She spent her day watching dramas and eating alone. Stephen did not come back home with her since he said he would be with his friends till late at night.While scrolling through the timeline of her social media profile, she noticed a message request popping up from an unknown profile."Are you coming to the party tomorrow night?"As she read the message, she realized the person was talking about Stephen's party, which he had informed her about earlier this morning.However, the person who sent her message was anonymous to her. Since it was a message request, either she would have to accept it or ignore it.Ava sta

    The person was none other than Ian Dawson. He was looking at her indifferently.Ava frowned at him and stepped aside. "I'm sorry."Ian did not respond to her, as if she suddenly became invisible to him. She was perplexed by his behavior.He was okay with her at her mother's wedding. Then what did she do to offend him? She recalled the time he hugged her. She felt a shiver around her spine just thinking about it. She realized she had taunted him by talking with Nova.Was that why he was behaving cold with her again?Ava shrugged her shoulders and walked past him.'I don't care,' she thought, and she went to her class.It was noon when she and her friends decided to go to the party together tonight."I can't believe your brother. He didn't even invite his father or your mom to the celebration party. It should be his father's party, not his," Debra said."He said it's a party for us. So he didn't invite Dad. I know even if he had invited Dad or Mom, they would not have come. In fact, the

    Ian looked at Ava when the girl told him that Stephen's sister had come to the party.He was completely blown away by Ava's stunning look. It was difficult for him to tear his eyes away from her because she had such an alluring appearance.He saw Ava avert her eyes from him."Ian," the girl called him when she noticed he was staring at Ava."Hmm?""Will you spend your night with me?" the girl asked seductively. She rubbed her hands against his abs over his half-sleeved black t-shirt.Ian felt nothing from her touches, not even from the way she was sitting on his lap. It was like his mind was somewhere else. Regardless of how hard he tried to divert his attention, his thoughts kept going back to a particular girl whom he had rejected."Let's see how much you can seduce me," he winked at her. A blush appeared on her face, and she started kissing his neck.In spite of the fact that the girl was making an effort, Ian's eyes were fixed on Ava.As he observed her engaging in conversation wi

    Ava told them to ignore Ian and enjoy the party. She tried to have conversations with new people as her mother told her to be social. She just wanted to give it a try.Ava and her friends were waiting for Luke. As soon as Ava called him, he informed her that he was unable to make it there because of something that had occurred."It's okay, Luke," Ava said."No, I am so sorry, Ava. It was your mother's wedding celebration party, and I could not come.""Don't be concerned, Luke. It's just a simple party, like others. Mom is not here anyway. And we can meet tomorrow too."She tried to comfort him so that he would not feel bad. She knew there might be something coming up, and that was why Luke could not come. Otherwise, he never missed parties.After talking with Luke, she turned to Abigail and Debra."So he is not coming?" Abigail asked."No.""Then why did he desperately message you about it?" Debra asked, folding her arms."Maybe he has work to do," Ava replied, as she also believed th

    Ava was shocked to see Ian in the room. His face was illuminated by the flame, exposing his handsome face. Even from a modest distance, he appeared to be very good-looking. She almost lost herself looking at him.However, what he had done to her could not leave her mind. He was her ex-mate, the boy who insulted her in the whole university."What are you doing here?" she asked after clearing her throat.But Ian did not reply to her. His eyes were on her, and his hand was wrapping around her waist like a stone, which she could not move.She looked into his eyes and saw something unfamiliar.Her gaze shifted to the flame of the lighter, which was the only thing separating their faces.She gulped when his hand moved a little, causing the flame to move with the sync.She returned her gaze to him. He was still staring at her.What did he want?She pushed his arm from her waist and said,"Move."The moment he moved back, the flame of the lighter blew away.Once again, the room returned to it

    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

    "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
