Ava looked into his indignant eyes. She could not understand him. She started to feel that she should never have fallen for this boy before their rejection.Her secret crush on him broke her heart. She felt mad at herself for feeling something for this type of guy in the past.She was afraid of what would happen when he became the head Alpha. He would be the most unfair leader in their pack. Their pack was not safe in his hands.Ian turned to the boy who attempted to flee. He grabbed the back of his neck and was about to hit his head against the table when Ava grabbed his wrist."Please don't!"Ava said it in a shaky voice. She feared that the boy would die.Ian's hand loosened as he let go of the boy's neck. The boy ran out of the cafeteria, clutching his stomach.Ian's eyes shifted on Ava's hand which was holding his wrist. He slowly turned his gaze to her."Go and hold his hand, not mine," he said, yanking his hand away.Ava nearly lost her balance due to it.However, a pair of arm
"It must be a date! Oh, how foolish you are! Yes, it's obviously a date, Ava," Debra said to Ava.Abigail nodded her head in agreement.After attending their classes, the three friends were walking on campus."I am not a fool. I also thought the same. But he was casual and said that he just wanted to talk to me, so..."Ava paused, mumbling, as she reflected on what Luke had said to her.He said he wanted to take her to a coffee shop. He had something in his mind that he wanted to discuss. They were such good friends that she did not take it that way."Trust me. Luke likes you. I have seen it in his eyes," Abigail said."Me too," Debra added.Ava was stunned. She had never seen Luke that way before. He was her friend—a very good friend. She had never thought of him more than that."I-I..."Ava's lips halted as she glanced at Ian, who was walking out of a building where the head office was. The dean may have summoned him for what he did to the boy this morning.Abigail and Debra followe
Ava rolled her eyes and walked up to Luke. She heard Stephen reply to Ian,"He is Ava's friend. So, he is here for her."Luke cast a quick glance at Stephen and his friends. His eyes stopped on Ian."Luke, hi," Ava said with a smile.Luke turned his gaze away from Ian and toward Ava. He appeared to be amazed by Ava's appearance."Hi, you are ready to go out. Why don't we actually go out?"Ava could see that he was hesitant to enter the house. He was not on good terms with Stephen, either.Ava frowned as she grabbed his arm and said,"That is what I thought, too. But then I changed my mind. Why not let me show you around? I have a small library there. We can enjoy our coffee while sitting there."With a gesture, she indicated upstairs. Luke turned his head to look upstairs.Indeed, there was a beautiful small library set up. Two single couches with a small table were there for the people who wanted to enjoy reading books. There were small tree plants, which created a vibrant environmen
Ava POV"Ava, leave. Go with your mother. They will kill you both."My father yelled at me, his eyes filling with fear as he looked at the other side of the forest."N-No," I mumbled and sobbed. I could see him lying on the ground.“Little girl, always take care of your mother,” he said while struggling to sit up. There was blood all over his legs."Angela, run away with Ava. Don’t waste time," he told my mother, who was kneeling in front of him and crying loudly."How can I leave you in this condition, Hector?" She exclaimed in sorrow.We all heard crunching sounds.Every single wolf was fighting with one another, and we were in the middle of a war."Leave. I can't shift to protect you two because of my wounds. At least save our little child." My father said it again to my mother.When my mother noticed a group of wolves were rushing in our direction, she stood up and carried me in her arms, then began to run in the opposite direction.While running, my mother whispered in my ears wi
He looked at me with a frown, but then he nodded his head."Whatever," he muttered in a deep voice as he walked past me.When he walked away from me, I closed my eyes, remembering his attractive cologne. I realized it was the first time we had spoken."Hey, Nerdy. Why are you alone? Did you think any of us would count you as a beautiful lonely girl?" A boy paused and said to me.I did not argue with him; in fact, I never argued with anyone because I was afraid that if I did, they would bully me or lie about me to the dean, causing problems for my mother. Except for my three well-wishers, I tried to avoid interacting with others."Robin, stop it and come on. We don't have time for your nonsense," Ian spoke up from a little distance from me.I turned my head toward him. He was looking at the boy who was standing beside me.That boy named Robin walked to him and said,"You should not have stopped me. I was making fun of that nerd.""Still no time for your nonsense," Ian said as he walked
My black t-shirt and my baggy blue jeans were flexible enough to cover up my body type."Please wear something nice, Babe. I mean, these are not bad, but you should wear some party dresses," Abigail said and started to check my closet.She turned her head with disappointment. "Not a single dress to wear at parties," she said."I told you all. Parties are not my thing. I should not go there.""Wait, no! I didn't mean it. You are my best friend. I was just saying this because I wanted to give you a hot look. Forget about my words. You look good."I chuckled at her panic reaction. I pulled all of my hair toward the back of my head in a low ponytail.I pulled out two thick hair stands to cover my face. I reached for my glasses and put them on."Do you know how beautiful you are? Why are you hiding yourself like this?" Abigail asked.I turned around and smiled at her. "This is not called hiding myself. This is me."Abigail removed her long black coat and offered it to me."Wear it.""No, t
Ian appeared to be in shock. He released my hand right away.Everyone burst into laughter. He glared at the others, telling them to shut up, and they did."I-I did not mean to get in your way. But–"I paused when his gaze returned to me. His dark eyes captivated me and made me unable to move or speak."What exactly are you doing here?" He questioned me with gritted teeth.His question astonished me. Before I could answer his question, another voice rang out."I invited her. She is my friend."I turned around and noticed Luke. I felt relaxed when he came to my rescue. Abigail was alongside him. He came up to me and held my hand."Are you okay?" Luke asked me.I gave a nod without saying anything."When did you start making friends with nerds?" Ian asked with a careless tone.I felt hurt by his question. I lowered my head, trying to conceal my emotions behind my glasses."Don't speak about her like this, Ian. She had done nothing to you. Stop picking on her unnecessarily."Ian frowned u
I was so shocked that my entire body froze. His lips felt electrifying against my lips. I shut my eyes when I started to feel a different sensation.His hand lifted to my wet hair, tucking it behind my left ear before deepening the kiss.When I realized what was happening, I tried to push on his chest with my hands. But he grabbed my wrists with one hand and locked them behind my back.He broke the kiss and touched my lips with his fingertips."Why do these lips feel like they are virgin lips? Why are you playing hard to get with me? Didn't they tell you that I like rough?"I had no idea what he was talking about. Of course, it was my first kiss, which he stole away from me."I-"Before I could stop him, he buried his face in my neck."What's with this smell? I'm warning you. Don't play any tricks with me. It will be just one night."I was stunned by his words. I felt tears well up in my eyes.'One night? Is he thinking that I am one of those girls? No, I don't want to be one of them.
