Now Ava is tied between two worlds. What does fate have installed for her?
View MoreMonday arrived. It was already five in the morning when Ava woke up and prepared for school. She put on her finest attire before descending the stairs and heading straight to the dining table. “Beautiful morning to everyone!” Ava twirled around before taking a seat. “Why are you looking so excited?” Asha asked but Ava simply shrugged and said, “I slept well and it feels good. I haven't had a good sleep in the last two weeks but yesterday was an exception.” A sigh left Asha's lips and she pats her sister on the head. Ava returned the smile before drinking a glass of water, trying to keep her mind occupied. Until yesterday, she had been having terrifying dreams and she couldn't help but marvel. Where did it all take a turn? Was it because of the scent of the scarf given to her by that man? Speaking of which, she did feel a lot of comfort while holding the scarf close to her. The scent intoxicated her and she felt something similar to a string pulling taut. Perhaps, that was
“Are you a psychopath or stalker?!” Ava half yelled and took a step back creating a wide range of distance between them.“No, I'm not,” Xerxes answered honestly. His voice was deep but calm and held a mystical vibe. Hearing his calm and soothing voice, Ava's suddenly tensed body felt relaxed immediately. Although she didn't want to trust him yet, she didn't move away from him anymore.She then pouted her lips and asked in a low tone. “Then why are you here? How did you know that I was here if you are not a stalker? Are you here to take revenge on me for calling you a pervert?” Her questions got Xerxes chuckling for a few seconds. Sobering up, he took a step forward and pulled and placed his black scarf gently on her shoulder.“Always remember to keep warm. You are a bit skinny to be exposed to cold. As you can see it's windy outside Ava.” he advised as he dressed the scarf on her body, trying his best to cover every exposed part.As his brain wandered back to her question, Xerxes de
“Stop right there!” Anna's sudden words unwillingly halted Otto on his track as he tried to ascend the stairs.Taking a deep breath he turned around and faced his mother who was sitting on a couch directly opposite his direction. A few minutes of silence passed and his mother didn't utter a word which only turned out to piss him off. He had come back home because of the sudden meeting his father had been warning them not to miss but it seems he will have to get an earful from her even before his father starts.“If you have nothing to...” “Where were you? And why are you coming this late?” she stood up from her chair and in a few seconds she was already standing in front of him.Sighing loudly Otto rubbed his temple tiredly before replying in a low voice, “Mom please not tonight. I'm so tired and I need some rest, so we should talk later.” with that he turned around heading for the stairs again. However, the next words of his mother stopped him again.“If you keep this up, I won't h
As the creatures closed in, Ava shut her eyes tightly and wrapped her hands around her body, taking shelter from their harm.“You are so pretty, too bad he won't be able to see your pretty face ever again.” The sudden words from only God Know got Ava shaking uncontrollably. As much as she badly wants to see the speaker, she just couldn't dare.But wait! Who are they talking about? Who won't be able to see her pretty face? Just Who is he?As the curiosity became too much for her to handle, she parted her lips but before she could say a word, a cold substance landed on her cheek shortly followed by a growl, “Open your eyes, Ava!” “I don't want to.” Ava shook her head as tears slowly ran down her features. “Please don't hurt me, I promise I won't tell anyone about you guys or anything I heard today, just let me go please, and...” Her next words were stopped by a sudden grip on her throat, which resulted in her coughing badly. Left with no choice but to do what they wanted her to, Ava
“Mate? What are you talking about? What mate?” Owen rushed his words within and earned a hiss from his wolf. *She is your mate Owen. I can feel the bond but it's slightly weak* His wolf snapped.Raising her head to see the hard surface her head got in contact with, Ava's eyes widened in surprise when she realized that it wasn't a hard surface rather it was a young man.“I'm sorry mister.” She withdrew from his grip and arranged her clothes. Getting into an intimate position with a man was one thing she had always been scared of since she didn't want to end up becoming like a few college dropouts.Taking hold of her hands, Owen asked worriedly, “Are you ok?” He turned her around searching if he could see any injuries. “You are not hurt anywhere right?” Seeing that this unknown young man was worried for her ignited a feeling that she had never felt before. His eyes were full of concern as he twirled her around searching for any injuries.“I'm alright Mister, I apologize for bumping i
The weather was getting darker as each second ticked by. She could no longer see clearly as she kept running. Wiping the sweat off her hairline, Ava glanced over her shoulder and when her eyes got in contact with loud thunderous claws which slapped against the ground, she doubled her speed.A groan escaped her lips as the creature almost took a grab of her. Her attackers were stronger and faster which she didn't fully know. A non-existent creature is what she called them.Just then, a scarier creature almost took a bite off her right leg. With its claws sinking deep into her skin, a sharp pain took over her leg and she fell right on her face.The burn from the pain made her eyes water instantly. Ava used her stomach to crawl and she managed to lean against a tree. Taking a deep breath, she closed her eyes when she felt the presence of the creatures getting close.Letting out a scream, her eyes snapped open and she was drenched in a cold sweat. Breathing heavily, she placed her hands o
Staring out of the window was Ava who seemed lost in thoughts. Her face held a placid expression and her lips were pursed causing a slight frown to appear on her forehead. Shortly, Otto walked over to her table and took a seat in front of her. Taking a sip of the iced americano coffee in front of him, he snapped his fingers right at her face a few times before she jolted right out of her thoughts. Darting her gaze from outside the window to her front, Ava was a bit stunned by seeing Otto seated in front of her. Finally righting herself, she cleared her throat in a well-behaved manner and asked, “How long have you been here? And how did you find me?” Of course, she needed to know how he found her. This morning she had warned him never to come close to her as she was not in a good mood. Hence, she quietly walked away and hid in a restaurant where she had only ordered water. Otto's lips quirked up. After being mum for a long while he glanced at her and replied, “Why were you los
The parlor door was abruptly pushed open, revealing Ava who yelled effortlessly as she made her way inside, “I'm home!” She threw the bag on the couch and made her way to the kitchen.“Welcome back Ava,” A lady with blonde hair smiled widely as she placed a kettle filled with water on the stove. Reneging her gaze from Ava, she met with a pair of emerald eyes staring right into the kitchen, whilst standing a bit far from the kitchen counter. “I see you brought a company,” The young lady said, not tearing her gaze away from the guest. As excitement swirled within her, she turned to Ava, “Don't tell me you got a boyfriend already?” She teased chuckling, which caused Ava to almost choke on the glass of water she had almost gulped down.“He is not my boyfriend Asha,” Ava disposed of the remaining content of water into the sink before placing it back on the shelf.“He is just a friend ok? His name is Otto and he helped show me around college being my first day today.” She clarified.“
“Karina? Karina?”Xerxes shook the lady in his arms. Placing his blood-stained hand on her cheek, he hugged her to himself as he cried bitterly.“I'm sorry Katrina…everything happened so fast and I…I..” he gagged in his tears.“Stop crying, you look ugly when you do!” Katrina's voice bounced out, shortly followed by the cough of blood. Ascending her hand, she managed to wipe the tears off his face.She smiled whilst crying before she spoke in a voice lower than before, “Although I won't be with you, make sure to take care of yourself.” a cough emitted from her. “I love you, Xerxes.” As a wide smile appeared on his face, Xerxes replied almost inaudibly, “I know Karina. I promise to take care of myself but you need to promise me something too.” he leaned closer to her. “Promise me that you will be reborn?” with that he claimed her lips.•••Nineteen years later•••Standing in front of a gigantic painting, was Xerxes Mikaelson who seemed lost in thoughts as he stared oddly at the paint
