Skye's POV Clark was buried and I and the others returned to the pack house. There was merriment everywhere. Everyone was jubilating at the death of the demon king. I looked around the multitude for Ava but she was nowhere around. I ran up the stairs racing to the bedroom but still yet, I couldn't find her. I walked down the stairs back and I saw Camila. "Where's Ava?" I asked her. "No idea, alpha. I haven't seen her since the pack returned." She replied. I tried not to panic. I walked amongst the crowd and saw Anna. "Did you see Ava?" I asked her. She hesitated for a while. "She went to the pack house." She finally said. "Crescent woods?" I asked her, giving her a puzzled look. She nodded. I turned around and walked briskly towards the door. "Alpha Skye.." She called after me, but I ignored her. All I wanted was to get to the one my heart beats for. I got into the car and turned on the ignition and maneuvered out of the pack house surrounding. I got to the crescent's house a
Ava's POV The next morning I woke up with a splitting headache. The ones I expected to get after crying myself to sleep yesterday. I heard a knock at the door. "Inna minute," I said as I got off the bed placing a hand on my forehead. The headache was terrible.I opened the door and there Beth stood with excitement written all over her face. "The beta has woken up." She said excitedly. "What?" I asked surprised as I rushed after her to uncle's room. We got to his room and there he was slowly rising to a sitting position on the bed. The elders were around him. I went towards him and sat by his side."Are you okay?" I asked him and he nodded smiling. "Mary told me the battle was victorious." He said.I gave him a weak smile. "It was, uncle," I said. He nodded and looked at me. "Why are you so here early? And where's that possessive husband of yours?" He asked, throwing questions at me. I felt a sharp pain in my heart as I gave a sad smile without responding to his questions. He sign
Skye's POV I opened my eyes slowly as the sun rays filtered through the window and rested on my face. I had a dream last night about Ava. She was right here. I heard her voice. I heard her voice! It repeated in my head as I quickly got up to a sitting position, but she was not there. I probably was wrong, but I felt her close to me last night. I felt her presence. So where was she? I looked around, but I couldn't see her anywhere around the room. I was about to leave the bed when Walter walked in. "No no, alpha. You need rest." He said coming close to me. I had a migraine and my head kept pounding but I declined. "I'm fine, Walter. Where's Robin?" I asked him. "He's downstairs, but you really need to rest, alpha. Your body needs it." He said but I still declined. "And David, how's he?" I asked. "Thankfully, he would be out of the coma soon." He assured me and I breathed a sigh of relief and got off the bed. "Listen to me, alpha." He said after me, but I ignored him and walk
Natasha's POV I was beyond surprised by the powers Fernandez now possessed. Back then in the dungeon, he had this thing, something I can't really place my fingers on but it was definitely not these powers of his. "I heard you got banished." He said staring at me. I gave a bitter smile. "You really saw it coming, right?" I asked him. "It's better than death, am I right?" He said and his eyes twinkled. I shrugged. Yeah, it was way better than death. "So what're you doing now or rather, what have you been doing since your banishment?" He asked. "Roaming around. I'm now an outcast. I belong to no pack and you?" I asked. He began to speak, but I interrupted him. "Wait let me guess, you got banished too?" I said, judging the situation without waiting for his response. He laughed. A peal of laughter that was different from what I'd heard before. "You're not quite correct in that aspect, Nat. You were banished but I, on the other hand, was given no punishment whatsoever." He said smi
Skye's POV I had walked into the crescents pack house in anger, but seeing Ava and her uncle together, I had to mellow down despite the fact that I was angry at her. Why did she have such a habit of keeping vital information from me? "Skye," Phil called with a puzzled look on his face. I waved him aside. "Is there something you need to tell me?" I asked her, staring hard at her. She stared at me and as usual, raised her stubborn chin in defiance. "And what do you mean by that?" She asked, her voice as clear and cool as the still waters. I wanted to shake her hard for that, but I resisted the urge. "Why didn't you tell me you're pregnant?" I asked and her confidence wavered as she stared at me in surprise. Phil stared at both of us, surprise written all over his face too. "You thought I won't find out?" I asked her and she swallowed and blinked twice. "I have no idea what you're talking about." She said adamantly, but her voice was wavering. "Do you have to keep lying to me even
Ava's POV I walked through the familiar grounds of the blood moon pack's territory. I ran my fingers along the low branches of the trees embedded with flowers. I sighed. Despite my stubbornness, I've returned to the house of the blood moons. I didn't know if I was obeying Skye's order or if I was just doing this for the sake of my children. I got to the pack house and saw everyone rushing to the pack's clinic. What's going on? I wondered and slowly crept behind them toward the pack's clinic. "He's awake! He's awake!" I heard them screaming. "What a miracle!" They added in joy. I got into the pack's clinic and saw everyone gathered around David's bed. He was seated on the bed and his mother hugged him tight with tears flowing freely down her cheeks. My heart melted at the sight. I was beyond glad in my heart that he was finally awake. "Alpha!" Luna yelled joyfully when she sighted me and everyone turned in my direction and slowly lowered their head in courtsey. She ran towar
Ava's POV Everything seemed to be normal between the both of us as the days roll by. Standing at the balcony window, I watch Skye speaking outside with a pack member. He looked roguishly handsome in his breeches and a white shirt unbuttoned to his chest. I gazed at him and a smile tugged at the corners of my lips. My doltish, arrogant, possessive husband, and yet he was...handsome. I agreed to myself without a grudge this time around. I sighed as I placed both hands on the window pane, devouring him with my eyes. He had an indeed incredible physique. Lean and yet masculine. Just as if he read my thoughts, he looked up towards the window and gave a smile. I quickly left the window and held my chest as my heart raced. Did he see me staring at him? I wondered. I heaved and took deep breaths. I looked back at the window but he was no longer there. Where was he? I wondered as I craned my neck around to find out where he was. "Looking for me?" I jumped back in fright. I turned back
Ava's POV The dress Skye had sent and laid out for me was breathtaking. As usual, he had a huge sense of style. It was a floral white dress with embroidered design around the hem of the dress and sleeves. The dress exposed my bare back despite having a button at the nape of my neck. I wore the dress and it made me remember my mother in her ever flowing white dress. I smiled at my reflection. My hair was made in a bun and the rest of it dropped behind my back, imbedded with hydrangeas. With my white hair and white dress, I looked like an angel from above. I looked back at Anna and Camila. "How do I look?" I asked and their eyes watered as Camila wiped off an imaginary tear from her eyes. "You're Aphrodite reborn." She said. "I'm speechless," Anna added, and I smiled at both of them. "Then, I'm ready to grace this great ball of alphas," I said with a nervous chuckle. I walked down the stairs with both of them behind me and Skye was standing at the foot of the stairs. His gaze fel
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
