Ava's heart froze at his words. She stared at him. He was so close to her face that she could feel his breath.

She assumed he was teasing him because he wanted to make her believe that. He would then make fun of her after she had put her trust in him.

Ava looked into his eyes and said,

"I prefer to keep my distance from you. We are no longer mates to whom you must be bound. You are now free, Ian Dawson. You can live your life without any stress. No one will make fun of you because an ugly and weak omega is not your mate anymore."

The expression on Ian's face changed when he heard her words. He realized Ava was reminding him of what he had said to her before rejecting her.

He clenched his jaw because he no longer wanted to play the good boy role in front of her.

It was true. He was trying to be a good and calm boy in front of her. He was trying to keep his patience with her. But now, he wanted to show her his true self.

It was his fault that he had rejected her. However, he was now reg

    Ian chuckled while looking at Ava. She was walking towards her front door. When he noticed her entering her house, he got into his car and drove away. His gaze was fixed on the road as he drove to the pack house. He was not fond of that house. Even though it was his home, he felt suffocated there. The way his father ruled over him there, he did not like such a life. He liked to be free where no one could tell him what to do. After all, he was the boss of his own life. When he arrived at the pack house, he got out of the car. While playing with the car keys on his finger, he entered his house. "Look at your brat!" He heard his father's voice and paused his steps. He turned his head and noticed that his parents were in the living room. He rolled his eyes at them. "Don't you both have any other work besides sitting in the living room? Every night I come back, I see you sitting there." Alpha Martin and Luna Carolina got up from the couch. "Ian, you saw us here bec

    Ava walked into the campus and noticed people glancing at her.She rolled her eyes and murmured, "What again?"She tried to ignore the people, but one of the boys approached her and asked,"Ava, are you really with Luke? Is there any chance to reconsider it?"Ava was stunned. A surprised look appeared on her face, as she did not know how this boy had heard about her and Luke."What do you mean?" she asked, giving him a confused look.The boy handed him his phone and showed him a video.She watched the video where Luke had proposed to her. It looked like Luke was a little loud at that time. It was because she was about to leave the cafe, and he tried to stop her from leaving."So, is this now the talk of the town?" she inquired, raising her head to face the boy.He scratched the back of his neck and exclaimed,"You have many other choices, you know. They may keep their distance from you because of your brother. Even though we have seen you and Luke together. He was very protective of y

    Everyone turned their heads to Ian, who had just entered the cafeteria.They were stunned to learn that Ian had ended his relationship with Nova. She was his first girlfriend. Because he never dated anyone before. One night was always enough for him to get bored with a girl.Nova froze with his deep voice. Her heart began to race out of fear. She recalled his warning from last night. She did not expect to get caught.Ava glanced behind Nova and noticed Ian approaching them.He was getting close in her direction, which reminded her of last night when he leaned close to her in his car.Ian came to a stop next to Nova. His gaze locked on Ava's.Ava could see his eyes were enraged as if he was mad about something. But they were not fierce, like last night when he beat the boys.Ian averted his gaze away from Ava and looked at Nova.Nova's legs were shaking. She gulped and murmured,"Ian...""What's happening here?"Nova turned silent. She did not dare to say anything.Ian's presence in th

    Ava averted her gaze away from Ian and focused on Nova. She could see Nova looking angry at her.But was it her fault?Ava let out a sigh and turned to Abigail."Let's sit already. We have wasted our time enough with these people. We have classes to attend, too."Nova stomped her leg on the ground in rage and left the cafeteria, crying. Her friends left behind her.Ian's eyes were on Ava. He noticed her sitting in the chair with her friend. Her friend was giving her a glance. By seeing how she was giving him a look, it was obvious that her friend did not like him much.Everyone returned back to what they were doing. But they got the biggest breaking news of the year.Ian Dawson was single again.

    Luke was shocked when he heard Ava. He found out what had happened in the cafeteria through his friends. Ian made it clear to everyone that he had his eyes on Ava.He thought Ava would reject him and tell him that she would go with Ian.But Ava's words surprised him."Ava."Ava gave him a small smile and said,"What you heard about me and Ian, I will clear it up for you. I was with him last night, but it was because Stephen was in danger. I told you before. I no longer have any feelings for him."Luke's face broke into a wide grin. He smiled at her broadly and asked,"Are you sure? Are you sure that you are giving me a chance?"Ava nodded her head with a warm smile. Ian had already broken her heart. She did not want him to break it again. So it was better she gave it to someone else and be loyal to the person.Luke pulled her into a hug. Ava glanced at others who were looking at them. She closed her eyes and wrapped her arms around Luke.“I am very happy, Ava. I promise to always keep

    Stephen tightened his fists in anger. "How dare you even say that?"Ava could not understand why that guy wanted to see her. The way that guy gazed at her with his green eyes, she felt intimidated.Ava noticed that both Luke and Stephen looked angry at the guy. Her brother was angrier.She could still feel that boy’s finger on her forehead, sending shivers down her spine. It was a horrible sensation for her. She had never experienced anything like that.She was nearly shaken inside by what he had done to her."What do you want to talk about?" She asked the boy.The boy's eyes turned sharper as he tilted his head, giving the vibe that he was not afraid of anyone.Ava was able to understand his thoughts. Why would the boy be afraid of anyone if he could give them an electric shock by simply touching their foreheads?Ava's thoughts could not last for long because a voice came from behind her which caused the green-eyed boy to avert his gaze away from her."What's going on here?"Ava look

    The whole car went silent. Ian's words left Ava stunned. Her eyes froze as she gazed out the window.Stephen turned his head to look at Ian."Can you please shut up?"Ian smirked as he observed Ava's side profile. Ronald patted Stephen's shoulder."Why are you putting yourself between them? Your sister is capable of dealing with him."Ava turned her head to look at Ronald. “Would you kindly ask your friend to refrain from speaking with me? I am over him."Ronald glanced at Ava and gave her a cheeky smile. "Do you believe anyone has any control over him? Even his parents struggled to keep him under control. Who are we to have the power to do that?"After saying that, Ronald burst out laughing.The three people in the car looked at Ronald with serious expressions.Ronald realized that and cleared his throat. "Oh, wasn't that funny?""No, not at all," Ava replied.The car began to move as Stephen refocused his attention on the road and began driving.The ride was silent.Ava did not move

    Ian's confession left Ava frozen. The touch of his lips lingered on her cheek, giving her the electrifying feeling that she wanted to feel when she was close to Luke.Ian's words did not only echo throughout the car but also in her mind. It kept replaying in her heart.Ian backed away and looked at her. A grin appeared on his face as he caressed her chin with his fingertips."I know I–"Ava pushed his hand hard, which shocked Ian.Ava's frozen expression transformed into rage. She glared at Ian and said,“Like me? As to how? Insulting me and attempting to force me into being with you against my will? For what? With the intention of playing with me like other girls and then breaking up with me like you did with Nova, is that what you want to do?”Ian's brows lifted. Although he appeared to be trying to calm his anger in front of her, he grabbed the front seat with his fingers and held it tightly.“I have already explained why I broke up with Nova. Just because of you."Ava scoffed at h

    Ava folded her arms and rested her back against his car."Surprised? Why? Didn't you see me in Robin's room? Didn't you try to buy me at that nightclub while calling me a whore and a slut? Now what happened? Isn't this who I am in your eyes? That man is going to be my Alpha. Why should I be ashamed to embrace him? He has the right to do whatever he wants with me. He now owns me."Ian was fuming. Only he knew how he was feeling inside.When Ava noticed Ian was silent, she took the opportunity to move aside. She wanted to rush to her home. She was not feeling well in front of him. She did not want to see this man anymore.She was counting down the days until her birthday, when she would be able to go back to the Thunder Howl Pack. She did not stay here any longer.Ian tightened his fists as he controlled himself from stopping her.

    Ava's eyes flung open when she heard his whisper. She blinked her eyes. "I-I..."She started to feel nervous in her heart. She did not know what had happened to her suddenly. She was fine just a few seconds ago.Her heart began to beat faster, making her feel restless inside.A frown formed between Dane's brows. He realized she did not want it.He tilted his head to kiss her lips. However, she turned her head, and his lips touched her cheek.He did not mind kissing her cheek. His lips slid down her cheek to her neck. She closed her eyes as his lips ran over her skin.He grasped her hands and wrapped them around his neck. She used her fists to clench his shirt. He left butterfly kisses on her neck.His hands began to run around her waist before moving to her breasts. Just as he touched one, a flashback occurred in her mind, causing her eyes to wide open.She immediately held his hand to remove it from her bosom.Dane was kissing her neck, so when she pushed his hand, he raised his head

    Freya walked toward Ian and held his arm. It caused Ian to look away from the elevator door."Let's go."He began to walk and remarked,"Never ask me to come here with you again."Freya frowned at him and asked,"But you promised me that you would help me to get back my projects."“I don't need to see your Alpha's face again and again. I will speak with the sponsors directly.”Freya knew she was not the reason why Ian was here. He came here because of Ava. She was not a foolish woman.She kept quiet and decided to leave the company with him.While exiting the building, their gaze was drawn back to Dane and Ava.They had not left yet. Ava was sitting in the passenger seat inside Dane's car. Dane was standing outside, conversing with Griffin.Ian's steps came to a halt in front of his own car.

    Ava had no idea how her heels twisted on the stairs. She reached for the stair railing, but her fingers slipped and she was on the verge of falling.Her body was waiting to hit the stairs, so she closed her eyes tightly.But before she could fall, a pair of strong arms encircled her waist.She was holding the person's sleeves tightly with her eyes squeezed shut.A familiar scent touched her nostrils, and she furrowed her brows. Her eyes sprang open in shock. She raised her head to look at the person. He held her in his arms and pressed her head against his chest as if to protect her.Ava froze when she realized that it was Ian.He slowly lowered his head to examine her face. Her brows shot up when she noticed a glint of softness in his eyes."Are you oka—"His gentle tone nearly shook her heart. However, someone turned him around before he could finish his sentence.It was Dane who reached her after Ian.Dane grabbed Ava's waist and pulled her closer to him. He pushed Ian's chest, gro

    Days passed with Ava's hard work on the project. Ava had been working at the new office. There was no time for her to go home early.The relationship between her and Dane was improving, though. He looked after her at work. Always, he reminded her to eat regularly.He even agreed to go with her to the reunion party. Ava was thrilled about it. She was grateful that he had agreed.Dane said it was nothing to be thankful about. Since everyone was going with their partner, she also had the right to go there with her partner.Ava's daily life was going well because she had not seen Ian again.She felt relieved that Ian did not say anything to Dane about their past. But she made the decision to tell Dane everything. She was afraid that Dane would be mad if he got to know that she was with his rival in the past. It was the reason she always stopped herself from telling him about it. But she knew she could not hide it from him forever. Since she was not with Ian anymore, it did not matter at a

    Hearing his assuring statements, Freya felt relieved. There was a grin on her face as she gazed at his handsome face.She noticed him raising the bottle and swallowing the drink. The movement of his Adam's apple caused her to move closer to him.She put her hand on his chest and fiddled with the button of his shirt. He cocked his head to the side in order to look at her face.While Freya was getting closer to his face, she began to unbutton his shirt.She tilted her head and kissed him on the cheek. She moved her lips close to his mouth and whispered,"It's been six months since we decided to live our life together in the future. But you never tried to kiss me."She closed her eyes, knowing their lips were only a few inches apart.As just her lips were about to touch his, he gripped her jaw, stopping her from kissing him.She was shocked by his action as her eyes flung open. She was startled when her eyes met his dark orbs."It's because I don't like it.""D-Don't like what?" she mumb

    The night was completely dark. There was no moon to light up the ground. There was only darkness that was engulfing outside.Ian was sitting on the floor, with his back against the bed.There was an empty bottle lying on the floor. He held one bottle in his hand.The redness surrounding his dark orbs was maniacal. He was going through an emotional breakdown. A cold man like him could not cry. But his emotions were visible in his eyes.Bringing the bottle close to his mouth, he chugged a few more gulps. The bitter taste and the high level of alcohol burned his throat.But he did not stop drinking.In the last four years, Ian Dawson had made an image in the werewolf world. People knew the young man was cold and heartless. He showed no mercy and was ruthless toward others. He did not even let go of his own parents, mocking them if they opposed him.If anyone saw him in this condition, they would be shocked.He had the bottle in one hand and one hand that was resting on his knees.

    Because the car was silent, Ronald heard everything. His eyes were on Ian.Ian's eyes grew intense. His one hand, which was gripping the steering wheel, clenched tightly.Ronald's gaze moved to his other hand. His fingers were bleeding. Because of his pressure, the glass broke, and the sharp edges cut his fingers."Ian!"Ian removed the phone from his ear and threw it near the gearbox. Ronald gulped, not knowing how to calm his anger.He was surprised to know that Ava was with Alpha Dane. Wasn't it something unbelievable? He could never have imagined thinking like this before.Ian moved his leg away from the brake pedal and slammed on the accelerator.On the busy road, the car moved like the wind. The speed of the vehicle astounded the people.To get past every other vehicle on the road, the car swerved to the left and right.It was obvious to Ronald that his best friend would not listen. He recalled Ian's accident. He hurriedly pressed the emergency button, letting other cars behind

    Ava said whatever was on her mind and walked out of the room. She felt her cheeks getting wet as she made her way to the canteen. Realizing that she had nearly revealed her vulnerability to the man, she quickly wiped away her tears.Crying was not a sign of weakness. She was in anger and she did not want to burn everything around her. That was why her anger flowed down with tears.She entered the canteen and took a seat at one of the tables.She looked out the window from where she sat at the table.She recalled the incident that happened many months ago.It was a night when she was partying with her friends at a club. It was a birthday party, so they had their own spot in the corner to celebrate while cutting the cake.She was drunk that night.She was not aware that a man was following her. In the name of helping, he led her to a room and began to open the button on her shirt.She was not in her right mind, but she understood that something was happening with her. She became traumat
