Robin's POV "What are you still doing here?" I asked Natasha the moment I walked into the pack house and saw her. She smirked. "I'm back home, Robin." She said. "What?" I asked in exclamation. "Now don't be that way, brother. Don't tell me you haven't missed me." She said, saucily. I frowned at her. "I'm not your brother anymore." I said to her. "Cmon," she brushed my statement off with her hand. "You loved it when I call you that when we were still little." She said. "I'm glad you said when we were still little. It irritates me when you call me that again." I frowned.Natasha wasn't really my sister, but she called me that while she made Skye her lover despite we all being friends. "What are you doing here?" I asked her again. "Skye asked me to stay. You see, he still loves me. All he needed was to see it." She said with a smirk. Something about her felt so off. "You truly disgust me now, Nat. I never knew you were going to stoop this low to get into Skye's life." I was irr
Ava's POV I stood beside the river that was my one place of solace when I was still in the pack house. I stood there feeling weak and crying my eyes out. In just a space of two days, I've been thrown out of the blood moon's house and out of Skye's life and now, I've lost my leadership as the alpha of the pack. My mind was blank and empty. I didn't even get to tell Skye I loved him and I couldn't put the pieces of this puzzle together. This wasn't me. Where was the tough Ava I knew who took no nonsense from anyone? Gone. I answered my questions myself as I bawled my eyes out. "You can't just leave." I heard uncle's voice behind me. I wiped my tears. "I can't marry him either." I said. "Ava," uncle began, in that convincing tone of his.I shook my head. "No, uncle. I cannot be a wife to that beast who doesn't have the conscience of his pack's safety in his heart." I replied.Besides, my heart belonged to another despite the ordeal I was facing. He stood there for a few minutes.
Ava's POV The few days I spent in the blood moon's pack house were torturous and worst than when I first arrived. Luna and Lucas were bullied by the children except for David who was still friendly to them. I on the other hand was looked at with scorn and treated with disrespect. If only I was not in this condition Skye placed me in, they'd have a taste of my fist just as before. But times were changing, I had no idea if it was because of my pregnancy that I didn't have any zeal to react to any insubordination thrown at me. Besides, I was becoming weaker with pains all over my stomach. Robin ensured I rested and ate well but when he wasn't around, I was subjected to meals even a pauper would reject but I had no right to complain. This was no longer my home. Complain to who exactly? There was no one willing to listen to me. Not even Skye. Only Robin paid attention to me and the members of my pack. Skye was either in his study or in his room with Natasha. It always hurt me whenever I
Skye's POV Michaelis walked into the study and I leaned back to observe him. "What is it this time, admiral?" I asked him seeing the distraught on his face. He took a seat. "It still doesn't look good, alpha, no traces. No one had seen any activities in that area," he said. "It's the woods, Michaelis. No one would see any activities in there." He shrugged. "You have a psyche in the house. Why don't she come take a look, maybe she can see something and that would give us a lead." He suggested.I shook my head. "I'm not letting Anna out there yet till we are sure what's in there," I said. "That's the point, Skye. We do not know what's in there. We don't know what we're dealing with." His tone was slightly raised. "I respect you a lot, admiral, but this, I'm not going to support until I speak with the girl," I said.He heaved. "That's fine by me." He said rising to his feet. "See you soon alpha." He added.I nodded and watched him leave. I rested my back head on the chair and sighe
Ava's POV Everything seemed to be the worst turning point for me at the moment, one of the babies had a particular habit of kicking me all the time and it hurts. On the other hand, Skye and Natasha's closeness was driving me crazy. And there was my pack. I haven't even heard from them since I left crescent woods. I didn't really leave, I was forced to, by that betrayal of a friend. I sighed as I pulled away from the window. I advanced towards the bed when a rapid knock came on the door. It was more of a bang. Before I could open the door, it burst open and Natasha walked in angrily. The first thing she did to me was slap me hard in the face. I held my cheek as I felt my eyes sting with tears. "What is my offense this time?" I asked her as I held back the pain her hand created on my face. "Am I going to do my laundry by myself or what? All you know how to do in this house is eat and sleep, you lazy bag of oats." She said. I stared at her in surprise. "What?" I exclaimed. "Sinc
Ava's POV As soon as he disappeared into the hallway, I turned to Robin. "Everything set?" I asked him and he nodded. "I've arranged with Camila to prepare the kids. Once it's done, y'all will leave." He said. I nodded. "And Anna?" I asked. "She's ready." He replied. "You know what you have to do." He nodded. Anna walked towards us. "Are you sure about this? He'll forget you and everything associated with you." She reminded me of the consequences. I nodded. There was no going back in this. "From the moment he saw me till now, I want it all wiped out." "Why don't you fight this?" She questioned me. I shook my head. "Not in this condition. I have not the strength." She gave a nod in understanding. Tonight was the perfect timing. I knew Natasha would be out of the pack house. She always left the pack house at night. I went into the room waiting for her to cross the low white rail fences. "Is everything okay, alpha?" Luna asked me.I gave the little girl a smile and nodd
Ava's POV We unpacked the next morning and Robin made it easier for us by setting everything in place. An enemy turned friend. I smiled at my thoughts. He was really someone sent from above. Camila walked down the stairs as I placed platters of bacon, eggs, deviled beans, and bread on the table. "Done already?" She asked and I nodded. "Yeah. Luna and Lucas? Are they ready?" I asked her. She pulled a seat. "Yeah. They'll be down in a minute." She replied, picking a piece of bread. Just then, they both walked down, fresh from a bath and putting clean clothes on. "That smells good," Lucas said with a huge grin on his face. He was going to grow up looking very handsome. Luna nodded in agreement as she sat down in the chair I pulled out for her. She picked up a bacon and moaned in pleasure and Camila and I chuckled. "Way better than what Ria makes." She said. I ruffled her hair. "Ria cooks well," "Well, you beat her to it," Lucas said. I smiled at both of them as I sat down.
Ava's POV Robin walked into the house with a smiling face and groceries in his hands. "For her queen." He said, dropping the bags on the table and taking a slight bow. I chuckled. "Its been just a few days since we arrived here. The house is still stocked. You're spoiling us too much," I said to him. "That's not spoiling. I'm trying my best here to take care of my godchild." He said with a grin. "Indeed you are," I replied, chuckling. "And Skye?" I asked all of a sudden. His mood became sober. "He has no memory for the past eight months of his life." He said. My heart bled, but it was what I wanted. "Which means he doesn't recall a thing since the day we met." I responded and he nodded. Camila and Luna walked down the stairs. "Beta Robin!" Luna screamed in excitement and ran into his arms and he hugged her tight. "Hey little one." He smiled. I watched Camila stare at him in admiration, but she quickly masked it when he looked up at her. "Howdy, Camila." He said casually.
Ava's POV Skye was lying on the bed and he was pale and white with his eyes closed. I held his hand sobbing and his hand was cold. I couldn't believe that he had left me in this cold world alone with no final words. "You cannot do this to me, Skye. You have to wake up. Wake up!" I practically yelled at him but he would not. Tears dropped from Camila's eyes as she consoled me. I pushed her away from me. I did not need her comfort. All I wanted was my husband. Mariya walked in with Anna. "The demon king has been burnt along with his ring and his ashes scattered away." She said. I did not care. That man who was my father has brought me nothing but pain and sorrow and now, he has succeeded in taking the love of my life away. I placed my head on his chest crying. "Please, wake up. Please, wake up." I pleaded but he did not listen. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Everyone tried to comfort me, but I would not take it. What more was there to live for? I've been separated from him for five
Ava's POV The training lasted till midnight before Skye allowed everyone to retire to their rooms for the battle ahead. The morning came more quickly than expected, but the pack warriors did not look like they lacked sleep. It must be that Skye had done this before. He addressed the pack concerning the battle with the demon king. A few warriors were assigned to guard the pack house with all their strength. We were ready, dressed, swords in our hands, ready for the battle that had taken place six years ago happening again. Just then a blast of wind sent many of the pack warriors flying off. I heard a burst of evil laughter and looked to see father appearing mid air. This was just after noon and he had taken us by surprise. "I told you I'd be back." He said smirking. Skye and I readied our swords and stood side by side. I wondered how he got his body. "Do not be surprised that I am in my body. This is all that I have planned," "I buried you," Skye said to him. "I dug my body
Ava's POV Davina laid on the bed with her eyes closed and I held her hand. Skye sat beside her, looking intently at her. Camila placed her hand on my shoulder giving me support. Slowly Davina opened her eyes. "Mum?" She called, trying to sit up and Skye helped her up. "Davina," I said, tears choking my throat as I pulled her closer to me. "Are you alright?" I asked her as I pulled her studying her. "Yes, mum," she said, looking around. "Why's everyone staring at me?" She asked, hiding her face in Skye's chest. "How're you feeling, Davina?" Skye asked. "I feel weak, dad." She replied. "She's alright now. She's no longer in the possession of the demon king. She's free." Mariya said and I heaved a sigh of relief. Anna's POV Davina was allowed to rest again and I walked down the stairs to find the sorcerer, Mariya sitting with a glass of water. "Come, child," she said taking notice of my presence. I was reluctant. "Come, child, don't be scared." She said and I moved to where s
Skye's POV I could hardly believe it. Ava was right and it turned out to be the demon king? How much of our lives would he keep ruining? Davina stared at her like she was crazy. "What's going on here? Mother?" She asked, coming close to Ava who looked ready to fall apart at any second. "Stop right there, you evil demon." Mariya, the sorcerer said. Davina paused and stared at her. "What are you saying?" She asked, looking scared. How could such an innocent looking child be possessed by Clark? "Father?" She looked at me. She was ready to cry. I turned to Mariya. "I don't think you're right. Davina is too little to be possessed by Clark," I walked towards the child to comfort her. "Stop right there, alpha," she said, stopping me in my tracks. "Do not move an inch closer to that child before you're stained by the demon in her." She said forcefully. She moved closer to Davina and began to chant. Davina stumbled back in fear and tried to run. "Stop right there, Clark Forest!" She
Ava's POV "Mum," She called out sweetly to me. "I was just telling Dahviel to come downstairs and have fun with us," she said. She could look into my eyes and blatantly lie after everything I saw. I decided not to react. I did not want to raise suspicion on her side. I needed to find out what was wrong with her. "That's great, dear, but your brother needs rest, Davina. Why don't you go to the party downstairs and have lots of pastries, hm?" I said to her. She jumped in excitement like the little child she was and skipped out of the room. Tears rolled down dahviel's cheeks silently. I held him to my chest as I pulled myself together. What kind of trauma was she trying to make her brother go through? Skye walked into the bedroom. "I figured out you'd be here. I've been looking for you. Why did you abandon me downstairs?" He asked all at once, coming in front of me. "Skye, there's a problem," I said to him. "Problem?" He looked puzzled. "What problem?" He asked. "I think
Ava's POV I paced the room in perplexity wondering what was going on with Dahviel. He wasn't like this and he sure doesn't tell lies about his sister. Skye and I had returned back to our bedroom after making sure Dahviel was asleep. Skye watched me pace around without a word and then finally unable to take it anymore, he broke the silence. "What is it, Ava? Are you still worried about what Dahviel said?" He asked me. I nodded. "Dahviel cannot just come up with a story that his sister was holding a knife," I said to him. "Does that really say anything?" He asked. I stopped pacing. "Of course it does, Skye. Did you not see how terrified he was?" He stared at the wall. "What point are you trying to make then?" He asked. "Either something is wrong with Davina or Dahviel himself," I said. He stood to his feet. "Natasha did send thugs to abduct them, remember? Dahviel might be suffering from the impact of the incident," he theorized. I sighed. "You think so?" I asked him. He held
Ava's POV It was just as delightful as before and memorable too. I will never be able to be in another man's arms except his. I watched him sleep with his hair tousled on his face. It felt just like it was yesterday I married him. I ran my fingers along his firm jawlines. He was beautiful. An embodiment of grace and handsomeness. His piercing hazelnut eyes was worth to die for. His straight nose drawn closely to small soft lips, tempting me to steal just one more kiss before I leave to attend to the children. Unable to resist the urge, I carried out the thought in my mind. I feathered a kiss on his lips. I lifted my head to see a smile tugging at the corners of his lips. His eyes slowly opened. "What a great way to start a day," he said and I chuckled. "Good morning, my love," I chuckled, my fingers trailing his chest. "Another pleasant way to start a day," he grinned as he lowered my head to his, entangling my lips in an intense and passionate kiss. Then, he teased my lips.
Skye's POV Everyone was all settled in the pack house and the pack were planning a party for the return of the queen. Ava. I had ceaselessly wondered what if I didn't regain my memory? Was that how I would have lost Ava for good and never get to see my children? I thank the moon goddess for making Robin care for them while I was unfit. This time around,I'll never let them out of my sight. I'll do everything I can to protect them. The very image of my thought walked into the room. "Skye, Davina and Dahviel will be going to see my uncle today," Ava said to me. I stood up from the bed. "That's alright," I replied, walking closer to her and bridging the gap between us. "That will give us enough time to spend together," I added, grinning mischievously as I cupped her breast. "Skye!" She exclaimed. "You pervert!" She said, slapping my chest playfully. "But, I've missed you so much. If I did not lose my memory, I won't have stayed without you all those long years," I replied wi
Ava's POV Robin had arranged some warriors from the blood moon pack to help in my cause. Everything had been planned and by noon, we stormed the crescent woods taking Fernandez and his minions unawares. He had an awful expression on his face when he saw me. "We meet again old friend," he said finally with an hardened smile. "We meet again, Fernandez,"I replied as we circled each other. Skye stood beside me sword drawn as the rest of the blood moon pack surrounded his minions. "You've come back after five years," he said, jeering. "To make you fall by the edge of my sword," I replied, unfaltering. He chuckled and smirked. "It will be difficult," he boasted. "But, it'll happen," I said and with that, I attacked him and the rest of the pack attacked his minions and some of my pack members were fighting the blood moons. Why? My thoughts were immediately vanquished as Fernandez and I clashed swords. We fought, rolled over dirt, and swerve from the impacts of the swords
