Ian was at his home. He did not attend university today because his friends had planned to go somewhere together.

Sitting on the floor, resting on the edge of the bed, he threw the ball to the wall, which returned to him the next moment. He wore a sleeveless black t-shirt. Whenever he moved his hand, his muscles moved with it.

"Ian, you—"

His mother, Carolina Dawson, paused at the door.

She noticed her son was focused on the ball. Though his sharp eyes were on the ball, he looked into some other thoughts.

She stepped into the room and walked toward the bed with slow steps. She sat down on the edge of the bed, where he was leaning back.

"Ian."

Ian grabbed the ball tightly when he heard his mother. He turned his head to look at his mother.

"Mom."

Carolina stared at her son. Ian had become more calm over the last few days. Her son was not like that. Though she and Alpha Martin always tried to discipline him, it did not mean she expected him to lose himself.

    A car came to a stop in front of a big house. Three girls stepped out of the car.The three of them looked hot and attractive. Others around the car looked at them with surprise."Look how they are looking at us!" Debra said to Abigail and Ava.Ava cast a glance at the others. She could see boys who were about to enter the house eyeing her from afar. Meanwhile, the girls gave her cold looks.She lowered her head to look at her dress. Her upper body was covered fully by the black dress, but it was perfectly fitting with her body. It ended up in her mid-thighs. Since it was a fitted dress, she felt that it was too short. Half of her thighs were visible. She was not fond of revealing dresses."I swear! Ava looks bang-on. Boys are going to dream of her after tonight," Abigail said.Ava glanced at her and let out a chuckle. "I know you are trying to cheer me up.""No way. She is so right. Look at you. With this look and appearance, you can kill any boy, and they will be ready to let you do

    Ava seemed to be taken aback. The way he asked the question with the anger in his face surprised everyone."Dang! You can't ask two questions," a boy said to Ian.Ian turned his head to the boy with cold eyes, which caused the boy to tremble in fear.Ava spoke out,"It's none of your business."Everyone let out gasps. They could not believe she had responded so boldly to Ian.Ian was digging his gaze at Ava. His mind was fogged by what his mother had said to him today.That was the reason why he had asked her the question.But when he saw her looking at Luke after hearing his question, his blood started to boil.It looked like the person was Luke. She was in love with Luke. Ian could not take it.“Excuse me. I am going for a drink. I can't play anymore,” Ava said, getting on her feet.Luke raised his head to look at her. “I am coming with you.”Ava nodded her head in response.“Okay.”Her one reply blazed fire in Ian's chest.

    Moving away from the lounge area, Ian headed to the bar. Girls came close to him, trying to linger on his body.He pushed them aside and walked towards Ava.When he approached Ava, she was stunned. He grabbed her wrist, prompting her to rise from the stool she had just sat on."What are you doi—"He interrupted her by dragging her to the other side."Ian? What's wrong with you?" She said, struggling to break free.Ian's grip tightened, and he led her down a hall.Ava, on the other hand, was shocked. She had no idea where Ian would take her.There was some time left before the clock struck 12 a.m. Ava was not in the mood to celebrate Ian's birthday, so a few minutes ago she told Luke that she should leave. Luke had agreed and said to her that he would also leave.

    Ava froze on the spot when she heard him. With a shake of her head, she turned around. "No, no. You can't see the wounds."He furrowed his brows and asked,"Why? Is that in your lower back? Is this why you are feeling shy?"Ava did not know if this boy understood what he was saying. She pushed him slightly and wiped away her tears.She shook her head and replied,"Look, I know you are drunk. But I think you should go back to the party. My wounds don't have to do anything to you."Saying that, she attempted to move, but he placed both of his hands beside her head.As he gazed into her eyes, it appeared as though he was trying to see something within them. She could not understand what. But there was no way she would let him do what he wanted."Am I too bad that you are running away from me?"She paused by his question and asked,"W-What?"Was he too bad? The answer was yes. He was too dangerous for her and her life. He was the one who started the pain. She had no desire to interact wit

    "Ian, just let me go. I am begging you," Ava said, as she did not want to explain anything. There was a pain in her voice.His grip loosened around her hands. She immediately turned around and pressed her back against the wall to hide it.Ian took a step back as if he were confused. He could not believe what he had just seen. Her back was full of wounds like tree branches. They looked red on the skin, giving the impression that she had just gotten the wounds."Y-Your back..."Ava was surprised to hear him stuttering. She looked at him while resting her head against the wall.Ian tried to understand how something like that wound could get into her back. His mind turned blurred. He was in disbelief.Something hit his mind as his brows lifted as if he were shocked once again.Ian remembered how, when he pushed her against a wall after saving her from the boys or pressed her against a bookshelf in the library, she hissed in pain, just like tonight.He used to think that it was due to the

    The feeling of Ian's fingers brushing against her bare back over her wounds caused Ava to close her eyes. Even though she was experiencing pain, she was also experiencing an unknown sensation that was caused by his touches.She felt his knuckles stroke her upper back. She had no idea how he would heal her.“It's not funny at all. Get away from me, Ian...Aaah!”She moaned when he leaned in her back and pressed his lips on the back of her neck.His hand let go of her head and grabbed the dress. He pulled it down her shoulders, giving him full access to her upper back."Ian!"Ava let out an angry tone. She did not know why he was doing this.How could he heal or help her when an epsilon said to her that no one could help her?She pressed her hand to her chest, holding the dress in place. She was afraid the dress would slip off her shoulders if she did not do it.Her heartbeat started to race when she felt his breath on her back.When he kissed her wound, she cried in pain.He moved his l

    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.

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
