After Adler learned about my pregnancy, he couldn’t stop worrying about my condition. I was thankful that he did those great things for me, but sometimes, I couldn’t stop to feel irritated whenever he was with me. He changed a lot, but I still know how to protect myself, especially in my condition.He was proud, especially when he announced he would be a father. He didn’t even mind if some werewolves were teasing him about his actions toward me. I understood that they were still shocked that he was my husband, my mate, because of what they knew about how he treated me.“Hey! Where are you planning to go?” My eyes rolled when I heard his voice again. I woke up and decided to go to the bathroom, but he caught me walking. Adler always overreacted! I didn’t like it anymore.He was too afraid that we might lose our baby, especially since he found out that he needed to take care of me with gentleness because of my condition. Gunner didn’t stop making fun of him.“I want to go to the bathroo
“What is little Avalynn doing here alone?” My shoulders slumped down in disappointment. After Adler’s annoying remark was his evil laugh that I got used to hearing growing up. I knew he wasn’t alone, given the series of supporting chuckle I heard from his fanatic friends. That’d probably be Rake, Jonshon, Owen and Gunner. The same group of friends I hated since the day I learned the word asshole. The five of them, including their leader, Adler, were the strongest guys in our generation. Everybody knew that. They did too. I turned around controlling every muscle of my face. If there was one thing I hated about hating them, it was not being able to express it. There were a lot of times I tried, though. I regretted each time. The satisfaction wasn’t enough reciprocation for the wounds they gave me. Which was why I was planning to lay low and avoid conversation. Because now that almost the rest of the pack were on pack run, there’d be no stopping them. “Probably thinking of her futur
Jade accompanied me home. But as soon as I was done washing myself, she disappeared without a word. Though I knew she’d probably just talk with her mate, Gunner, about what had happened to say, I didn’t do a thing.On the afternoon, she went back saying she was sorry my brother allowed it to happen. Maybe if it was the first or the second time it happened, I’d hold a grudge. But since Adler and his group had been bullying me for years, and he hadn’t done a single thing about it eversince, I got accustomed to it. I stopped hoping he’d defend me the moment I realized what it was he was doing.We lost our only parent because I was weak and wolfless, so he allowed Adler and the others to pick on me repeatedly. It was almost a de ja vu. Except not shifting that day was unintentional, and him not doing a thing to protect me was.He hated me that much.The rest of the day, I hanged out with Jade. And before I knew it, it was my seventeenth birthday.“Happy birthday!” Jade greeted me with a h
It was common knowledge for wolves that a male wolf could only meet his destined partner after his mate turned seventeen, and vice versa. It was what also happened to Gunner, my brother, who had to wait for four months after his seventeenth birthday, since he was a few months older than Jade.Adler turned seventeen almost a year ago. Though he was a bit disappointed, Adler believed the Moon Goddess saved the best for the last. Unfortunately, that didn’t seem to be the case.“What…” Adler’s eyes were still wide. “Why can I still feel your aura? Why can I still smell you?”That, I didn’t know.This was the first time I rejected a mate. Nor did I know someone who had done this before. Wolves in general normally just accept their mate as it was the Moon Goddess’ blessing. And not once in my life have I heard about a story that rejected his or her destined partner. Adler was the first. We were the first that I know of. Thus, I didn’t really knew much about rejecting a mate.“Perhaps it doe
“What…” I stepped back, fazed. “D.. did I heard it wrong?” ‘You tell me.’ My eyes widened even more. Was it my wolf? Holy— I have a wolf! It just spoke to me and I was sure it wasn’t one of my intrusive thought! Its voice was different, and I could feel its existence inside me. It was there! “W-wha… How are you here? Why… Where have you been?” I had a lot of questions that I couldn’t think properly. “W-what is your name?” ‘Alice.’ “Alice…” I mentioned her name, still flabbergasted. “When did you came from?” I was still gasping, shock at the very good news. “I-I was waiting for you.” ‘I know.’ “Were you hiding?” I couldn’t help but look at the parts of my body as I spoke. I was both fascinated and astonished. It was my first time having a conversation with my wolf, after thinking my whole life I didn’t have any! “Oh my god. Alice…” ‘Enough with the questions. I have a news for you’ I tilted my head. “News? What news? Is it good? Bad?” ‘The rejection might have worked.’ I brea
A smile curved in my lips. Though I definitely had no idea why Alice sensed another presence of what seemed to be my new mate, when we still didn’t know if the rejection worked, I felt thrilled. I wanted to indulge myself in it. The excitement and all these weird series of unexpectedness had to lead me to something. I had been living my life in hues of black and white. Now that Alice came, and there was a huge possibility that I’d soon meet love, I feel enthusiastic. I felt like this day would significantly brought a big change to my life. Which I would love to venture. ‘You should accept, Avalynn.’ Alice said. “Tomorrow, then?” I brought my eyes to what I was doing to continue, but I was pre-occupied. I was fired up! ‘How does your radar works, Alice? Can you see what he looks like?” I asked, excited. The Moon Goddess first linked me to Adler, which was, as much as I hate to admit it, strong and good looking. I was hoping the new one would be more… handsome. ‘What am I, a crys
My head turned to each direction. I understood what Alice said, but I couldn’t exactly pinpoint what he was. If he wasn’t a werewolf, then what? The smell was something I was a little familiar with, but I couldn’t remember how and why. Have we met before? His smell was extremely pleasant, and I understood that it was because he was my new mate. But the sensation of his presence was both familiar and strange to me. Where is he? His smell is strong but I still can’t tell where exactly he is! ‘Turn to your back. He’s near but still out of your reach.’ I heard Alice said. I turned to my back as Alice instructed. I stepped forward, and attentively scanned the area. It was already dark, and it was full of trees so I couldn’t tell. I couldn’t see even his shadow. It thrilled and scared me… if that was even possible. The thought that he didn’t smell like a wolf was scary to me— but knowing that he was my mate thrilled me. I wanted to meet him. That was the exact reason I allowed Jade to dr
“Is there something wrong?” Conrad asked. Each passing second, Adler’s scent was growing stronger. I couldn’t pinpoint which direction he was, but I could tell he was heading here. At full speed, at that. I didn’t know if he knew I was here, but if I could smell him, that’d mean he could smell me, too. Why could I still sense him? I have rejected him. It was supposed to work. Rejection would work if both parties wanted it. We did want it to happen. We didn’t like each other, so what went wrong? “Avalynn?” Conrad mentioned my name with concern, it was only then I got into my senses. Turning my head back at him, I forced a smile. “I… I’m sorry. I just remembered something.” Adler and Conrad shouldn’t meet each other. Not here. Adler shouldn’t know Conrad existed. The Alpha’s son shouldn’t know I have two mates, and that the other one was a Lycan. It would definitely cause a problem and that’d be the least thing that I’d want. I just met Alice. I haven’t redeemed myself. I haven’t

Adler didn't know how to react, especially when I pushed him onto our bed. He gasped but didn't even try to struggle with me. He licked his lips, and he didn't remove his eyes from me.“Hmmm..” I hummed when I stroked his dick once again. I tightened my grip on it and slowly moved my hands. “Shit! It's so hot,” He moaned, arched his head, and groaned. I lowered my head and stuck out my tongue to lick the tip of his length.He was shocked when he felt my tongue licked every inch of him. I stared at the tip of his cock, and I saw his precum. I licked it, making him grunt violently.“Shit. Avalynn, where did you learn this thing? Damn it. Don't you dare do this to another man!” I didn't dispute because I focused on what I was doing for him. Jade was right. It was enjoyable that I saw how my mate rated whenever I was licking the tip of his cock.I gulped because I was nervous, especially when I tried to suck his length. I couldn't entirely suck it because his size was too massive. I cl
I was dumbfounded and felt irritated when Adler didn't even think twice about leaving me. Shit. I was embarrassed because he knew that I was too horny. He could smell my scent.“Adler!” I called his name, but he didn't even say anything while he was inside the bathroom. I gritted my teeth in so much frustration. I didn't like what he did, and I would make sure that he would regret leaving me while I was too turned on because of him.‘It looks like you taste your own medicine. It's fine, Avalynn, but I didn't like that Adler chose not to continue what he is planning for you.' Alice spoke to me when I decided to leave our room.I groaned when I already understood what she meant. Damn, she was a dirty wolf. How could she even think something dirty? However, what made me agitated was I liked what she thought. ‘Shut it, Alice. You're not helping me. I want to push him to his limits.’‘Aren't you scared that he might punish you? Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot that you're too excited to get his t
“Welcome, Alpha Brandon,” I stared at the beautiful stunning Alpha; his cold eyes bore into us. I didn't even know that Adler had a friend like him. Alpha Brandon didn't talk with us, but he only nodded. Oh, he wasn't approachable, too. He began talking with Adler, and it seemed serious.“Okay, we will continue the training contest in our packs. My members are so excited to know about it.” Brandon stated, making Adler nod. It had been a year, and Adler was pushing to have a deal with another pack. He had been creating some allies to be the powerful Alpha. Brandon seemed stronger, too. I could do it because of his massive muscles, and I couldn't stop staring at his face. Damn.I noticed Adler glared at me. He coughed, and irritation was too evident on his face. “Oh, I forgot to introduce you, Avalynn, my wife,” Adler said, “Baby, come here.”I strolled slowly in their direction and bowed when my eyes met Brandon's sight. His eyes made me seem shallow; it looked like he wanted to ent
Avalynn's POV "There'd be no escape for you, Theodore," I told him with a smile curving in my lips. We have sealed all the exits. Every part, and every direction of this forest have wolves waiting for them. They were also surrounded, and outnumbered. This was exatly what they did to my mother back when I was still young. They beat her to a pulp knowing she was weak. They killed her in the worst way possible. I wouldn't give mercy now. I wouldn't show a heart to someone who doesn't have it. A tooth for a tooth, Theodore. I gave them my signal. In one swift move, Theodore, and the others were was attacked by the wolves in this land. The other howled as they inflicted pain on their bodies, while the other growled in hunger for their blood. I stood in front of them and let them weakened their body. Though they regenerate fast, they wouldn't keep up if they attain a lot of damages. They could try though. I didn’t turn to my human form and watched my friends, and the elders on this pa
(Third Person's POV) The tradition their pack usually does was interrupted with the anticipated arrival of Theodore and Conrad, blocking Avalynn and Adler's way, the two remained on guard and alert. They have prepared for this, and they knew these two weren't alone. Theodore will never dare to show up in their territory with only Conrad. Theodore wasn't that dumb. But he was sure impulsive. Avalynn scanned the area. Within her circle, she sensed the presence of Lycans coming their way. She didn't sense it earlier so they didn't have that much to prepare, but Avalynn and Adler managed to jumped on time. As soon as the Lycans arrived, surrounding the two of them, it didn't surprise them anymore. They immediately cornered them. Avalynn and Adler had no choice but to get close to each other and watch out. "This is our chance," Theodore said. Theodore and Conrad began to walk towards them. Avalynn was looking at Conrad intently, and Conrad was the same. Theodore had evil smile on his
Avalynn's POV Everyone's eyes were glued to us. They were too focused as if they were all waiting for us to do something wrong. All of them were wearing their keen eyes, witnessing the inauguration on this day. I was standing firm, becoming the Luna with Adler, the new Alpha. Am I nervous? Maybe or maybe not. What should a new Luna feel when she was being crowned and proclaimed in front of everyone? I wanted to look in their eyes one by one only if they were not this many. "What's on your mind?" Adler asked beside me. "A lot," I simply replied. I can see him smirking from my peripheral vision, but he remained calm in front of everyone. "You must be excited," he said. His expression was straight. But I couldn't help but remember the last thing we talked about as I looked at it. It distracts me remembering how he asked me back if I would stay if he say he liked me back. "I am." Both because of what would happened tonight, and because I finally would have the power and and autho
Conrad's POVDays passed, and I lost count on it. When Theodore told me that my mate bond with Avalynn ended because she chose to marry Adler, I lost it all too. The pain, the love, and even the guiltiness that was bothering me before faded and vanished later on. I feel fine after that. But maybe, I will not deny something that until now remains and I still feel. Disappointment.I know I have made a huge mistake, betraying Avalynn. But I never once thought that she would actually choose to marry Adler and even now ended up with him. Right now, the most dominant thing about it is that it's all over now. The guilt and my feelings towards her no longer exist. It's all gone. But why do I feel like something inside me is firing up? Like what Theodore said just added fuel to my chest?"Okay, so you felt that your mate bond disconnected and then you went to ask Theodore and he told you that it ended because Avalynn chose to marry Adler, is that it?" This woman who dared to talk to me that
Conrad's POV (This is Conrad's POV afte Avalynn and Adler was saved.)The guilt is eating me up. Since that incident happened and separated me from Avalynn, I always catch myself not being myself. It feels like my mind is flying while my entire body feels like it is buried in the sand. After that day, I decided to stay in the lycan's territory as Avalynn was also rescued by Jade and her circle. Adler was also saved by them.Of course, they would save him. He's the future Alpha after all. They will be all dead meat if they fail to rescue him there. Every second, every minute, and every day, all I was thinking was Avalynn.Is she fine now? What does she feel about me after that day? Is she angry?Those are the questions that keep running in my head rent-free. I may look like a fool when I already know the answers from those. Of course, Avalynn is probably not fine yet. She definitely hates him—despising him each day. Is she angry? Maybe more than angry that she's been wanting to hurt me
