Her heart almost jumped to her throat and twisted knots formed in her belly as she gazed at his veiny massive arms and those big calloused hands that frightened her. Those same hands she loved so much as she kept holding them and kissing his knuckles.

His words rattled the existence of her very being.

Ava's eyes widened and her face ashen when he strode towards her like a predator. To escape she took a step back only to gasp when her back collided with the door.

She looked at the door over her shoulder with teary eyes and when she looked ahead all her breath was knocked out of her system finding him standing in her personal space like a deadly beast.

The mere aura surrounding him was so ominous and dark that she couldn't breathe as she stood there holding her breath and trying her very best to evaporate in thin air.

"Breath." He commanded in that gruff voice making her chin wobble and lips quiver as she took in a sharp breath from her parted lips.

    She didn't sleep a blink, throughout the night she sat on her bed wide awake and kept glancing at the door in fear that he would barge in any second. Ava didn't go to work. She called in sick and went to the police station. She had thought hard about everything. Cried her heart out and then gathered the scattered pieces of her heart. He confessed to her that he killed her father. She wouldn't let him off the hook so easily. He would pay for killing her father. She'll drag him to the court if she had to. She also concluded that Aiden was filthy rich. That car, that mansion, everything belonged to him. He rented the apartment beside hers just to get close to her. Everything was a part of his bullshit plan. Their first meeting was at the bakery. It was all a lie, the more she mulled over it the more it hurt. There was a possibility that he might've lied about his name and job. The job was a lie for sure, thankfully she had his pictures, the ones she snapped without his knowledge, th

    "I'll give you two options. Decapitation or I shoot your brains out." "No..." She whimpered. "None," Her voice came out choked. Offense sat across his features. He looked lethal. Cold. Murderous. He tsked. "Don't be a bad sport. Come on, choose." She couldn't respond. Ava was traumatized by his mere presence. The continuous loop of stress, anxiety, and panic was messing with her head, leaving her thoughts scrambled and her body numb but despite all that her fear knew no bounds. "Don't make me repeat myself." She let out a choked sob shaking her head. "I can't... I can't choose." She was on the verge of hyperventilation. "That's sad." "Come on get up." He said rising to his mighty height and dread enveloped her as she watched him with haunting eyes. "What did I f*cking say about repeating myself?" Ava stumbled to her feet as he began walking out and she hesitantly teetered behind him. The senior officer bowed at him and the junior officer gave her stuff back to her. S

    "No." Her voice was barely a whisper as her hands trembled. Ava tried to free her hands. Slowly the reality of the situation dawned on her. He wants her to kill the pleading man. She jerked at her hands but his grip on her hands was tight enough to stop the blood circulation as her hands turned cold. "I would never." Her shaky voice echoed in the dark place. She felt his lips curling into a smile on her skin. A shudder ran down her spine when he kissed her ear, his hot breath prickling her skin. "You've to Ava. Choose yourself," He rasped. He knew her, she was a giver through and through. Always making sure everyone around her was alright. Ava possesses the kindest soul in this cruel world. Such kindness that lured in the evil like him. She shook her head violently and he watched her quivering lips. Aiden couldn't help but feel the trembling of her body. She was shaking like a leaf. "What if I tell you he drugged someone and raped that person.""I'm sorry... Please... I'm sorr

    Ava didn't know where she was or where she was headed. She has been walking into the woods, probably jogging for her life with tears streaming down her cheeks. This man was f*cking crazy. Maniac. Psycho. He carries a gun with him all the time. Law was under him. System bowed to him. He was powerful and rich. Could even kill people as if they were pests. This wasn't the man she fell in love with. He wasn't her Aiden. He was lying. The man she fell in love with was kind and caring. Sweet and loving. Ava wiped her tears. She had to contact Lilith and Evan. She felt so stupid for never asking for their contact. Aiden seemed outlandish. As if he was enjoying all of this. She had a feeling he would destroy her in ways she could never be able to heal from. "Stop," His voice reached her, and her heart stuttered in fear. She was supposed to stop but instead, she sprinted away from him. Her heart crawled to her throat he grabbed the nape of her neck and pulled her back. She came crashin

    "You're late." The baritone of his voice sends tingles down to her toes. Ava stepped back only to flinch realizing the shards of glass on the floor. "What... What are you doing here?" She was so glad that her voice came out steady. Before her heart used to inflate like a balloon in joy when she would find him waiting for her in her apartment but now she was terrified, though her heartbeat quickened. With a mixture of fear and fragments of her remnant love that refused to die down and was persistent in existing in her broken heart. He tilted his head and didn't offer her any response. Silence fell on them and she felt as if the walls were closing in on her. Ava moved carefully so as not to get injured and wore the slippers. Grabbing the broom she began cleaning the mess. She could feel his eyes on the back of her head drilling holes in her skull but keeping herself occupied helped her gather her thoughts and compose her melting armor.

  • Her Savage Alpha   28. Marriage

    Everything happened in a spur of a blur. They proceeded with court marriage the next day. More than a marriage it was a marriage contract in which she had no say. There were some solid rules in the contract to which she had to agree. It was stated that she had no right to ever ask for a divorce. Only Aiden could divorce her if he wanted, anytime, any second and she would get no penny out of him. She must obey his every command. Must not try to escape. She must submit to him. And not let any man touch her. She didn't know why the last rule was added. Aiden didn't feel anything for her. He didn't care for her so why didn't he want her to let any man near her? She was muddled when he ordered his lawyer to put this rule in the contract on the spot when the lawyer was explaining to her all the rules. He might be worried she'd transmit a disease or two to him but she would never sleep with him. She demanded to add another rule to his list of rules which stated that they wouldn't share a

    Ava was escorted to the last room down the hall. Mr. Taylor aka butler helped her with her suitcase and left her after telling her to reach him if she needed anything. She quickly put her phone on charge and tried to contact her father again but it went to the voicemail. There were dozens of messages from Vanessa. 'Tell me when you reach his place.''You better keep me updated if you're alive or not.''Let me know if he makes you cry, I'll f*ck him up.'Ava smiled reading all the threats in the texts and typed a text saying she reached his place and was perfectly fine. She sent her the text and then dialed Annie who picked on the second ring. "Hello, who's this? Ughh my beauty sleep...""You were asleep so early? I thought you might be up playing video games." Ava said. "I made a new resolution prior that I'll go to bed early from today onwards but you hitched my plan, thank you very much." "Did you get a call from dad?" Ava asked. "No, he isn't returning my calls these days, I

    He nibbled her bottom lip between his teeth, his tongue swiping over the blood coating her juicy petals. Ava needed to breathe, her toes were barely touching the ground and she was crushed in his solid embrace. She couldn't even breathe because of his cruel kiss or more like a punishment. "S... Stop..." Her protest got muffled as he shoved his tongue in her mouth, stroking hers and igniting weird sensations in her body. She was terrified but along with the constant fear there was faint arousal that rendered her baffled and she concluded it was because of her feelings towards him. Aiden was her Greek God. She truly loved him. The most handsome man for her. Her first love, first kiss, first touch. But that was all a mask that he wore so perfectly and behind that mask he was nothing but a deranged menace. Her nails dug in his chest against his shirt but it was of no use. His hold on her spoke loud and clear that he wasn't letting her go anytime soon. She was lightheaded and on the b

    8 years later. Her brows furrowed and a moan slipped through her lips. Confusion washed over her sleepy state as she slowly opened her eyes, Ava felt it and her eyes widened. There was something inside her. Moving. The familiarity soaked her senses. Her gaze flickered to the man on top of her. "Good morning, baby." Thrust. Her lips parted, feeling every inch of him. "Aiden," She breathed his name. He had a pillow resting beneath her hips, holding her legs wide open, he slowly moved in and out of her. "You should've woken me up," she said in her slurry morning voice. "I want to wake you up like this. The expression of surprise and pleasure on your face is a treat to my eyes," He mused. Voice deep and husky with a perfect sleepy edge to it. His hair was a mess, brows furrowed as he moved inside her. She opened her arms, and he leaned in, pressing his lips on hers in a soft kiss, his chest pressing on her bare breasts. His hand slid between them as he grabbed

  • Her Savage Alpha   Epilogue

    Ava sat at the edge of the pool with her legs immersed in the water while gazing at the beautiful sky which resembled a dark storm. The ghastly grey clouds scattered over the sky veiling the twinkling stars and glorious moon as a chilling breeze swept past her. It was calming. She loved this weather. The serenity before the rain. The storm. The darkness. The wild breeze. The weather seemed to be in ruthless chaos. Mayhem, and then it bursts in the form of rain. With rain, everything blurred out and all that mattered at that moment was just the present. As the heavy downpour tumbled down, the breeze felt ecstatic. The darkness felt soothing. The fresh scent of after-rain felt surreal. Ava smiled a little startled when the clouds grumbled wildly. A promise of a downpour in its wake. A month had passed since Ava came back to live with Aiden. He took care of everything and wouldn't even let her step out of bed. Ava got better in a week, but he was just too caring. Aiden would s

    "What the f*ck are you doing here?" Jacob growled, his hands fisted on his sides and by the dark look on her father's face, she knew he was mad. She had never seen him this pissed in her entire life. "I came to see my wife," Aiden said calmly, pulling to his feet. His eyes lingered over Ava for a couple of seconds before he faced Jacob. There was something about Aiden. He stood tall with his shoulders squared, staring down at her father with that blank look. He resembled a hidden menace. "Your wife? She's not your wife!" Jacob barked. Aiden's jaw ticked as he noticed from his peripheral vision that Ava had stepped out of the bed. "She is my wife, Jacob. I've thought hard about it and concluded. I can't let her go and no one can make me think otherwise." His voice was firm. "Are you in the right state of mind? She is in this condition because of you. It's better if you leave my daughter alone." Jacob fumed. "As I said. I cannot let her go." Aiden's tone oozes out fin

    Ava was lying in bed. She was sleepy but she didn't let herself doze off. She waited. Patiently. Hours passed and he didn't show up. Maybe it was all her imagination. Ava buried her face in the pillow and tears of frustration gathered in her eyes. She wants to kill him. Maybe she could; once she gets better. Burying her face further in the pillow she let her body relax and tried to sleep. The ticking of the wall clock was the only faint noise in the silent room. Her breathing relaxed and she tilted her face, her eyes droopy. Just when she was about to drift into her sleep. She heard a light noise. Followed by a heavy thump of boots on the balcony. Ava's eyes flew wide when she heard the subtle creak of the window. A light shuffling and she slammed her eyes close, evening out her breathing and calming her heartbeat, pretending to sleep. She didn't hear a single sound but suddenly goosebumps rose on her flesh when she felt an intense gaze followed by a soft caress on her che

  • Her Savage Alpha   60. Yearning

    Three days went by in a state of daze and blur. Most of the time she was sleeping and when she was awake, Ava just stared at the ceiling and reeled that barbaric night in her head on a loop. In these three days, Aiden didn't show up. He had abandoned her. The more time passed, the more she felt she was losing herself in silent distress. She hasn't said a single word in the past few days. Ava would sleep most of the time, have small portions of soup or porridge twice a day, and just lay in her bed. Lilith would sit beside her and talk nonstop, sometimes Marcus also joined in; talking about his trainee days and telling her how Jacob made his life hell because he was such a strict leader. Evan did show up in her room twice but both times he would just stand in the corner while Lilith and Marcus talked, and he would quietly leave with them. Thankfully her father hadn't told Annie anything, and she was oblivious to everything. She'd visit them in summer and there were still a

    A cry of pain tore through her lips. Ava glanced at the girl who helped her kill the guy hoping she could do it, but she was sprawled out cold on the floor. The fire was reaching close to her. The people trapped in those cages were screaming, banging on the electric wall, and getting electrocuted. Ava was crying full-blown now as she forced her body to move. She had to save them. She had to. Ava dragged her body up with the help of the wall, she put pressure on her wounded leg and the stitches tore her skin and opened making her scream in pain as she jumped forward slamming her palm on the button before falling. Water mist splashed water all over the place. Sirens of emergency and evacuation were ringing, and it felt like she was hearing them through the end of a tunnel. Cold water touched her skin. A shuddering breath left her lips as she closed her eyes hoping for all the pain to go away and softly whispered Aiden's name for the peace of her heart. Ava was in a beau

    Bullets were raining behind him and he got hit in the back causing him to stumble forward crashing into her as she held him. "Aiden," She whispered shakily, feeling wetness on her hand. There was a wild commotion behind them. Animalistic growls and snarls but all she could hear was a numbing whistle ringing in her ears, seeing red coating her palm. "Take cover," He rasped in her ear before pulling back. Aiden roared like a wild beast, and she noticed his canines extending and claws expanding as he lunged at the scarred old man. Ava noticed Enzo and more Aiden's men infiltrating the place like charged canons. A guard tried to get to her, but someone blocked his way in a flash and knocked him down with a solid punch. It was Jacob. "Dad," She breathed shakily as Jacob hurried over to her. "F*ck, I'm late. Hide, Ava. Don't let them see you," Jacob said, forcing a pistol in her hand. "Use it to protect yourself. Kill if need be. Don't even hesitate when it comes to your safe

    Ava banged on the door with all her might until her hands throbbed in pain. They had locked her in that room and then left. Cole was still unconscious while Ava had searched for every possible escape but there was none. She could hear two guards talking right outside the door. They were keeping an eye on them. It didn't matter how much she screamed or yelled at them to let her out. They didn't pay any heed to her. Ava was scared and drowning in anxiety with each passing second. Her pendant didn't electrocute her which meant she was close. Aiden would find her and be there any second now. A groan from behind had her head snapping to Cole. "F*ck," He cussed while trying to move but couldn't because of the wounds and pain. "Stay still. We are locked here. Your injuries are serious, you shouldn't move much," she said in a hoarse voice. Upon seeing her relief washed over him, his eyes fleeted to the gauze on her thigh and the number of bandages and patches that covered her face

    "Are you done for the day?" Cole asked when he ordered his usual honey donut and Vanessa grumpily prepared it for him. They both hate each other's guts she could swear on it. They both left no chance to get on each other's nerves. It was fun to watch them, but Ava didn't want her friend to be dragged into this werewolf's world. "Yeah, I'll be out in a minute," Ava said hurrying to the staff room as she changed into her clothes and stepped out. Cole was waiting by the door watching Vanessa who was putting the chairs away. It was her turn to close tonight. Ava said her goodbyes to Vanessa while Vanessa yelled after her, reminding her of the brunch tomorrow with Alice and Audrey. The girls’ day out. Ava yelled over her shoulder that she remembered as she walked down the street with Cole to their car. Cole handed the donut to the homeless man and Ava watched him. "Why do you buy it, when every time you don't even eat it?" Often when there was no homeless person around, he wo
