"The f*ck!" Vanessa was dumbfounded.

"Quiet down," Ava tried to hush her.

"What the actual f*ck! So you're telling me, that handsome hunk you were drooling over is your neighbor. You found it out five days ago and thought of informing me now! And to top the charts, he showed up wounded at your door and you tended to his wound last night."

"Pretty much sums up."

"You f*cking kidding me?"

"Do I look like I'm kidding?"

"What is this? A romantic series of hot neighbors?"

"I thought that too. No wonder we bond too well, Van."

The bell dinged and customers stepped in. "You better tell me all the deets once our shift ends," Vanessa said before hurrying to the kitchen as Ava greeted the customers and took their orders.

Retrieving her phone she texted Annie.

Ava: How was your exam?

Tucking it in her pocket she looked up only to gasp. This was the second time he had walked in without any sound. Ava glared at the bell and wondered why the hell it wouldn't jiggle when he stepped in.

    "What are you staring at?" Alice bumped Ava's shoulder. "Nothing," She muttered going through the text that popped on her screen. Khoroshaya Devochka. She was looking for the meaning of it. It took her some time to properly spell it and when she found the meaning she couldn't help the blush that crept on her cheeks. Good girl. He called her a good girl. God! Why did her face feel so hot? "Are you learning Russian?" Alice probed as Ava slid her phone into her pants and focused on her friends. They were currently at Audrey's place who invited them all for drinks. Ava didn't drink but she still joined them for the fun of it. "Nah.""Let's play, never have I ever." Vanessa mused. "I'll start, never have I ever seen a ghost." Alice mused as they all formed a circle holding shots in their hands. Daniel gulped down his shot and everyone gaped at him wide-eyed. "You've seen a ghost?" Audrey asked in a spooky tone. "Yeah, she's sitting in front of me," Daniel said with a poker face. A

    Ava didn't move, heck, she didn't even realize what was happening. It took a couple of seconds for her mind to register what was happening. His cold and rough lips were meshed against hers. A visible shudder zapped through her spine when his tongue darted out and he licked her lips. Grabbing her hand that was on his thigh he tugged her closer. Her eyes were wide in alert and the shock that flared through her cells. She tried to pull back but he only held her in place. Tilting her head, he deepened the kiss. He was eating her lips like a hungry beast. Her heart was pounding in her ears. Wild series of loud ba-thump. Ava was so distorted that she didn't even know how to tackle this situation. The speed at which heat was rising on her flesh sank deep into her skin, claiming more of the zone as it finally rose to her face. Her cheeks were flamed. His fingers dug into her scalp rather roughly and her lips parted in a whimper. With a low guttural moan, Aiden slid his tongue int

    In the silence of the dark inky night, her main door opened and a shadow slipped in. The apartment was doused in darkness as the man moved with ease. Closing the door behind he strolled further inside. The place smelled like her. Floral and fresh. His eyes flitted across the lounge. He came to a pause at the half-opened door. The first thing he noticed was the small frame of the girl on the bed cuddled in her sheets. Her long hair was sprawled on the pillow around her in elegant waves. Upon approaching her he paused at her side. Ava was snuggled in the blanket like a small kitten. Her brows and eyes were visible while the rest of her face was huddled in the blanket. Crouching beside her he peered at her with a blank gaze. His index finger tipped the blanket down enough to reveal her pouty lower lip that was jutted out. Her lips were parted as she swallowed in small breaths. She had thick long lashes that kissed her cheeks. There was a gentle glow of pink on her chubby chee

    "This place is awesome and the food is delicious, finger-licking good," Ava said gobbling down the pasta, which tasted like divine heaven she had never experienced. "I know right? When I first had their food, I was delighted just like you, and ever since then this place has become my favorite," Jasper said. "I spent most of my cheat days here.""Count me in, this place is now on the top of my favorite places, all thanks to you. And the cheat days? How many in a month?" She asked. Jasper was a gym rat so he often talked about the stuff related to the gym that was why she knew what cheat day meant otherwise the way she was she would've been the clueless airhead. "Max three.""So this one is?""Fourth."She looked surprised. "You're a solid iron man. I could never be a healthy gym person like you. You're a motivation but I'm such a lazy lassie.""If you want I can change that. You can start the gym, I'll help you out. We can work out together. I could be your free trainer but I like yo

    As soon as she stepped out of the elevator she found Aiden leaning against the wall beside her door while holding two boxes of pizza and a drink in his hand. He looked tired. He wore black trousers with a compressed white tee that hugged his muscular Greek-God build like a second skin. His hair was up in a bun, giving a rugged look to his hard features. He shoved off the wall upon noticing her. "Why are you standing outside the door? I would've called you when I got back home," She said, shuffling for the keys as she retrieved them from her bag and brushed past him to her door. "I was waiting for you. I wanted to see you."She tried not to let his words get to her because every time he spoke there was a tsunami of butterflies in her belly because his voice was so damn good. Deep. Hot. Dark. And when he says such beautiful things she has to look out for her heart as it forgets the basic function of beating and just mulls over his words on a loop like a goner drowning in the depth of

    "This looks sexy," Vanessa grinned, staring at Ava who was donning a beautiful black backless gown. "I think it's too much. And it's too revealing," Ava said, staring down at the huge slit at the right leg that almost reached her hip and would even show her panties. A big no. "Nah. You want him to lose control and f*ck you nine ways to Mars then I'd suggest wearing this tonight and you'll be thoroughly smashed-" "Vanessa!" Ava's cheeks flushed in embarrassment at her crude words. "What? Can't I be honest? Get used to it. The way I see it, Aiden is nowhere near Vanilla. That man oozes masculinity and power. He would surely be into kinks and stuff. No wonder he was attracted to you. Sin is intrigued by innocence. Swoon." Ava gaped at her friend. "Stop it. This sexualizes a person. Why are you even relating kinks with him? He's a gentleman." Ava muttered, grabbing a red dress from the bed. Vanessa dramatically gasped. "I thought it would fly above your head. But. Dude.

    "What are you making?" Aiden asked, stepping into her apartment. She had given him the spare key to her place and he often joined her for breakfast. She loved having him around. He smelled like whisky, sandalwood, and smoke. She was getting used to it. It made her heart flutter. "Cookies," She smiled. Her dimples were on display.Aiden walked over to her. Her hands were covered in dough as she stood on her toes and kissed his cheek when he held her waist in his big hands. Whenever he would come closer and touch her, she felt so small and delicate in a good way. "You can watch something," She tipped her head in the direction of the television. Aiden said he would spend the whole weekend with her and she couldn't be more excited. After their last date, she felt they had gotten closer. "I'm watching something," He mused, peering down at her, she blushed and quickly whirled around focusing on kneading the dough. "Go watch a show or something," She mumbled. "My show is right in fro

    Ava pulled back rather abruptly as she stumbled out of his hold and he let her. He didn't want to hold her in the first place. Aiden wasn't a giver, he was a taker through and through. The women he had slept with knew this very well. He only takes and f*cking loathe to give. He was this way and women still worshipped him. It was a f*cking chore to give her gentle kisses and make her feel special but it was important. He must take her high before shoving her off the edge and after that, she would keep falling with no bottom awaiting her. That would be her life. He was f*cking bored with her. He barely kissed her neck and she was resembling a tomato and stumbling on her shaking legs. He suppressed the roll of his eyes and got up. "I'll answer," He turned to walk to the main door but Ava stopped him with her hand on his arm. "Wait. It could be Mrs. Smith, my neighbor, I'll answer," He watched as she padded to the door and pulled it open. A squeal was heard before a fluff of bl

    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
