Avery's POV

"What if the mates are enemies?" I asked before suddenly wanting to face slap myself because what the hell did I just say. Jameson wasn't dumb, he would know that I'm talking about us.

"What?" He asked, wanting me to repeat the question because as it seems, I didn't think that he heard me.

"Never mind," I said, hoping that he didn't hear me.

Luckily, James didn't lose himself and I was glad he didn't but I felt really awful for him.

I could only imagine how it feels to lose one's mate. I hoped that I wasn't going to experience something like that.

Jameson wasn't such a bad person. This journey had made me see the compassionate part of him and I don't think he's that bad anymore.

We were finally seeing some tent in a distance, I couldn't hide the joy that I was feeling in me. I just couldn't stop smiling and at the same time, stealing glances at Jameson.

At some point after the whole mate thing happened to James, I was having pains in my chest, signs of the attack but I ma

Coincidentally, Flair and Jameson have been best friends since birth. One thing that I couldn't understand up until now was how both of them were sp close."Was I the only one that Jameson treated like shit?" I thought to myself because thinking about it, I realized that he has never bullied Amelia before.Unlike me and four other students, Amelia and flair weren't under any kind of scholarship.

    Avery's pov."Who are you calling human?" I asked, feeling that he was trying to throw a shade at me.My wolf was weak, even more weak than omega which was not a good thing."Aren't you human?" He asked.I chuckled at his words although I was feeling enraged."I'm a werewolf," I responded."But you're partly human like me," He responded to my text. I narrowed my eyes and said,"You're lucky that I'm not there with you, I would have hit your mouth for calling me a human, you indirectly told me I'm weak," Before of the kind of wolf I have, I went for training during my high school days so that I would be table to defend myself.It didn't go for waste because I even did better than other females my age who were born with strong wolves.The training only made me physically fit and strong but it didn't change the nature of my wolf."I loon forward to fell your soft palms on my lips...

    Jameson's POV I got home after leaving the bus and walked straight to my father's study. He was always there and I know that no matter what the situation could be, my father would always be working and be thinking about matters that would benefit the pack.Without knocking, regardless of how tired I was, I pushed open the door of his room and thundered."What the hell did you try to do? You freaking told me of how dangerous could be and yet you sent us there," I said in a rage."Why would you come here to say something like that to your very own father. You know that I wouldn't do anything to hurt you son," He said, trying to play the victim like he always do.I scoffed, "You know your petty words wouldn't work on me. You know that I'm not even moved by your words, right?""Well, I don't care if you're moved or not, I just need you to know something very simple, all I do is for your good,""Hell no! That is just your excuse. Nothing you do is for my good," I cut in."Wow, should I be

    Jameson's POV After taking Avery's number from Flair, I texted her, but she didn't respond immediately. After hours, while I was still awake because I had barely gotten any sleep, she responded to my text, and we walked until I was ready for the impromptu class of the day. Pulling up in front of her house, she looked like a goddess. Her dress was awesome, and the way she stood with her hands in front of her gave me the chills.She hopped into the car, and we then had a brief conversation.Conversation? More like a brief argument. It went on for a few minutes before the car suddenly fell silent. I decided not to give her a hard time; maybe she mistook my attention for bullying. My father sponsors her fees, but there was something that Avery wasn't aware of. She believed that the reason why the Alpha sponsors her tuition is because of her grades. Unbeknownst to her, hundreds of students have good grades from prestigious schools, yet the Alpha didn’t consider them worthy of his schol

    Avery's POVThe silence was awkward. I didn't know whether to be happy or sad that Jameson had his eyes fixed on the road without having any thought to bully me.I decided to plug in some headphones, thinking that listening to music would be enough for me not to feel the awkwardness.Just after plugging in the headphones, it didn't take long before I got tired of my playlist. I think it was high time I updated my music collection. Most times, it could be tiring listening to one particular track of music over and over again.After unplugging the headphones, I said without thinking, "Why do you even care about going to this class? Isn't your father the Alpha? I'm sure with or without you going to classes, you will surely be able to pass your grades well."Jameson turned to me, his brows twitching in anger. Was that a wrong thing to say? Shouldn't I have thought before saying something as unreasonable as that? Oh wait, is it unreasonable? Why isn't he saying anything?Millions of thought

    Avery's pov Nothing sounded bad with going on a date with him and like he said, it was only to make it up to me."It doesn't sound bad," I responded causing Jameson to smile. I noticed that he was specially happy although he tried to hide it.Soon, we arrived at the school premises. At the beginning of the rude, I desperately wanted the ride to come to an end quickly but after I started getting a little comfortable, I didn't want the ride to end. In fact, I was specially enjoying it."No, hold on," Jameson said, offering to open the door for me but I hissed and opened the door for myself."So you can mock me later by saying I don't have arms? I don't want that," I said, still trying to tease him at the same time.In truth, my eyes fell on the people that surrounded us, I mostly didn't want them to see Jameson hold out the door for me and start asking me millions of questions."Hey, I wouldn't say that!" Jameson said but I marrowed my eyes and quickly walked passed him, still giving

    Avery's pov "Nothing, I'm fine," I lied.Because of what she has said and also because of what Jameson had saud in the car, it started to make me reflect on all my actions."Hmm, are you sure?" Amelia asked."Well, I think I just need some sleep and nothing more," I responded nonchalantly."Okay," Amelia said curtly.After I moved my clothes inti the wardrobe and arranged my things, I fell to the bed, feeling completely weak.After closing my eyes, I fell asleep immediately only to wake up to see that it was evening.My eyes remained close until my phone began to ring. I had no plan whatsoever to get to my feet. In fact, I enjoyed the solace that I had attained from the sleep."Won't you check your phone? It's been beeping for hours now," Amelia's voice fell into my ear.I got to my feet, deciding to go and check it out.Stretching my hands, I sluggishly got to my feet before walking towards the couch where I had tossed my phone."Jameson," I mentioned the name my eyes fell on, on my

    Avery's POVBeep!I suddenly received another text, "I'm here now." I read the text, and just then, I heard a knock on my door. I quickly turned to Amelia, knowing exactly who was standing outside the door."Why do you look excited? You clearly told me that you're not even interested in this, and I shouldn't call this a date, right?" Amelia said, intentionally wanting to pick on me."What? You're lying, I don't look excited," I said before walking away from her."If you say so," she responded."Just have fun," she added, waving to signal that it was time for me to go and answer the knock on the door.I didn't know why I was nervous. For one, I didn't think that I would be flattered by anything that Jameson showed me.I'm sure this is the Moon Goddess trying to play with me because, hell! I don't like him!I opened the door and wasn't surprised to see him. I flashed a smile at him, and he stretched his hand forward, taking my hand."I'm glad you didn't bail out at the last minute. Whe

    Avery’s POVThe weight of Dimitri’s words sat heavy in the room even after he left. Noah had escorted him out, scanning the woods as if expecting Lisa’s mercenaries to materialize out of thin air. When he returned, his face was set like stone, his jaw tight.“Noah,” I started, unsure of what to even say. “Do you really think Lisa will find us here?”He didn’t answer right away. Instead, he placed his gun on the table and ran a hand through his hair, his frustration evident. “I don’t know, Avery. But we can’t take any chances.”I hated this feeling—the constant fear, the anticipation of the worst. It felt like Lisa’s shadow was looming over us, always one step closer no matter what we did.“We need to leave, don’t we?” I asked softly.Noah sighed and leaned against the table. “Yes. Dimitri’s warning wasn’t for nothing. If Lisa has people sniffing around, it’s only a matter of time before someone points her in our direction. We’ll pack up and move at dawn.”I nodded, even though my ches

    Noah’s POVI woke up to the sound of Avery pacing. Her steps were light but restless, echoing faintly in the quiet cabin. I opened my eyes and glanced at the clock on the wall—it was just past 4 a.m. The sky outside was still cloaked in darkness, but the faintest traces of dawn were beginning to bleed into the horizon.“Avery,” I said, my voice groggy. She stopped in her tracks and turned toward me, her face illuminated by the soft glow of the wood-burning stove.“Did I wake you?” she asked, guilt written all over her expression.“No,” I lied, sitting up and running a hand through my hair. “What’s wrong?”She hesitated, hugging her arms to her chest. “I couldn’t sleep. I keep thinking… what if we’re wasting time sitting here? What if Lisa’s already moving against us?”I stood and crossed the room to her, placing a steady hand on her shoulder. “We’re not wasting time. We’re regrouping, preparing. If we rush in without a plan, we’ll be playing right into her hands.”Avery nodded, but I

Sweet but the heat in my palms distracted me from the never ending cycle on thoughts busy inside my brain.Noah was by the window looking for movement in the treeline, he hadn't said much since we got here last night but the mere fact that he was there put me a little more at ease even as the edge of sanity started to get gnawed open.“Trouble?” I sounded, my voice piercing what little silence there was.“Nope – but again, not in the morning. Still it does not stop it from arriving.I swallowed hard and looked at the opaque in my mug “Do you think they are already hunting her?”“Never did,” Noah said eventually turning to me. But his eyes were so very tired “Lisa does not hang up.“And what does she want?” I pressed, this time confident with my guess.You are,” Noah said bluntly.Those words made a deep fog descend over me. I put the mug down, the coffee taste m

    Noah’s POVFinally, “We need a plan” Avery said her voice even but firm.“I do,” I said, white knuckling the steering wheel. “First we shall wait for Dimitri to tell us the data has been disseminated. After that we will be set in reality and you can start timing it. Until then, you continue to blend in.“And then? ” she prompt, moving over to me. They were wide, full of fear and bravery.‘After?’ I exhaled slowly “Then we protect you in the endHer eyes browed thinned. “Ok, you too? Can you not just play the god for me Noah? Lisa will hunt us both.“You think she targets you first,” I purred bluntly, pointing at her. You are number 1 She WILL try to hurt you for my sake. My focus is to prevent that.She turned away, mouth pursed to a thin line. “I hate this,” she stated, almost to herself. She hated being this way.“Not helpless, you’re not,” I stated. You’re surviving. That is not nothing Avery; That shits will take power.She did not answer, and I let the silence reassert itself. We

And I virtually recollected the jungle, the terror, the perpetual edict of danger. But then the full strength of it hit, crashing me like a boulder in choppy waters.Noah had already rolled out of bed, laptop on the small kitchen table. He was intently focused, his hands darting across the keyboard. He didn't see me yet, and I hesitated to look at him.“Morning,” I whispered through the clumps.He raised his head, startled, gave me a quick smile. Morning?I shrugged. “Pardon, I was as capable as one might assume for my circumstances.He nodded, got the hang of it. “Well, I have been thinking about our choices,” he said, pointing at the laptop. On the information from that USB drive — not a whole lot, but enough to turn the situation on it’s head. If we could just get it to the right people then maybe this could be enough to stop her.“ B

    Noah's POVAs I drove from the warehouse, I glanced back in the rear-view, expecting to see one of Lisa's henchmen hot on our tail. The car was so tense you could practically coat it with black oil and Avery sat in silence looking at the window blankly.Her hands were clutched in her lap as I could tell that the whites of each were white-knuckling.“I feel like I’m losing it,” I finally told her, breaking the silenceShe blinked like coming out of a daze. “I don’t know,” she said. Well, it's like… “ALL OF THIS. I can't DO this.

This week is ours to turn the other cheek.Avery turned back to me only to look absolutely skeptical. But what if it isn’t nearly enough?

But I had sworn on her—on my own life that I would be with her, through anything.I saw the echoes of fear turning into resolve as I finally addressed her from behind. Ha, she had always been tough as nails but I was seeing the splinters already. This is way too much for anyone. And yet, i couldn't help but feel proud of her are courage to do it.“I will,” I said with certainty of my voice. “Carefully though. Each step from now on is a function.Avery nodded past me, the fear still evident in her eyes. “I do, it’s just so… Noah. I ask myself over and over why. Why me? Why did they bring me in?I walked over to her and put a hand on her shoulder. “No Avery, It’s not about YOU. About the lies they want to lie on. You were just in the way.

I watched my mind frantically start putting the puzzle together of the pieces of information he just had given us. That my own mother was part of all of this was beyond belief.It didn’t make sense.“Lisa… my mother…” What are you saying Noah? “I said the words, and with them came almost disbelief the possibility of this weight that sank its claws into my fingertips.Noah moved a little, his eyes burning into me but I could tell by the way they were haunted with worry.
