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.
It's been one week since I attended Luke's party.That night, I cried for no reason. I asked myself why I started to feel something for a boy who did not even have any idea about my feelings.I could not forget his kiss and his closeness. Abigail had come to pick me up from my house the next day. She noticed a hickey on my neck and looked shocked. When I told her everything, she became very angry with Ian.But I asked her for a promise. I told her not to talk to anyone about it, not even Luke or Debra. She at first did not agree with it since he wanted to teach a lesson to Ian, but later I insisted, and she had no choice but to agree. She even helped me cover the hickey with makeup."Where are you lost, Ava?"I heard my mother, and I looked at her. We were eating breakfast together."Nothing, Mom."“Are you sure? I have been observing you all week. You look a little lost to me. Is everything alright?”"Yeah, Mom. I am fine. Don't worry."My mother gave me a smile and a nod. I stared a
I was confused at the beginning about the unknown feeling I had for Ian. But now I could understand that it was because he was my mate.We were bonded by fate. It was fated that I would fall for him.My wolf was delighted to have found her mate. I felt the heaviness in my heart that had been building up over the past few months vanish.It was always him.I was relieved that it was him. Because I was in love with him without even knowing that he was my mate.However, the mate he had been waiting for was actually me. It was as if I were dreaming.On the other hand,Ian was staring at me, not saying anything. His glowing red eyes had turned black. His eyes became cloudy, as if he were thinking something.I took a deep breath before stepping toward him. He was a little distant from me. I glanced around us. Other boys and girls were staring at us in surprise.I assumed they had only heard Ian's loud growl and not my whisper.I came to a stop in front of Ian and shifted my gaze to him."I-I
Ian’s POVI had been frustrated since early this morning. Something had happened to my wolf. He was reacting quite differently these days. It began last week when I went to Luke's party.That night, I kissed a girl who I thought was Lara. But I was wrong. It was not her, but someone else.During the whole party, Lara tried to seduce me. She even jumped into the pool in her white bikini. She approached me after exiting the pool and told me that she would be waiting for me near the washroom.So I went there later and grabbed a girl's hand. I mistook her for Lara. She had a different scent. I smelled her scent only as I got closer to her neck. It was so alluring that I could not help but rub my nose against her neck. I had kissed her, despite her attempts to push me away. I could sense that her body desired me.Later, when I kissed Lara outside while leaning against my car, I did not feel the same. I learned that Lara went to the restroom, which was upstairs. She said she was waiting for
