AVA KILLIAN

"I am not safe anywhere Layla, It's only a matter of time the king's guard will come for me, Axel rules this realm, he'd find me in every nooks and crannies... " She told Layla, and she swallowed as she looked blankly at her.

Ava’s gaze drifted to the window, her fingers tightening on the edge of the rough blanket, She needed dawn quickly and inform the king what Kaila had done.

The tavern seemed too quiet, too still. The faint hum of the distant voices and clatter from the few remaining patrons below couldn’t shake the heavy weight of uneasiness that had settled over her.

Though the bleeding had stopped, the hurting from her miscarriage still excruciating. Layla was still speaking, her voice was insistent, but Ava’s attention had already slipped away.

And suddenly she felt her hair standing up, her eyes had gleamed red like a direwolf but she couldn't see it, neither could Layla as she was facing outside of the window backing Layla.

Something was gnawing at the back of

    AVA KILLIAN ✿ POV We ran throughout the night until the endless night sea stretched before us, as some merchants reached their hands for us, "I paid them...you can trust them" Layla said, her voice soft and calm, exactly like the opposite of mine, after running for our life for about thirty minutes and she is suddenly calm and quiet. Her legs rigged to the beach sand, perhaps we could hide in this men's ship till dawn I had thought, but i was wrong "Common Layla.."I urged, her hand gripped mine tightly, an anchor in the storm that was my mind. Her eyes, always so steady, were now filled with a quiet resolve, she had made a decision long before tonight. And it broke me. "Go... Be safe, eat well... I love you a lot" She whispered as tears streamed down her eyes, accompanied with a smile, my heart shattered immediately it dawned on me. How could she ask me to leave her, to abandon her to the fate that hunted us both? If this is what she called my freedom, then the price of freed

    AXEL VOSS Like he had expected, having the Saint removed and taken as an offender for treason wouldn't go unchallenged by even his Council members. The council chamber was eerily quiet, Alpha Axel sat at the head of the table, his gaze cold as it swept across the faces of his councils. Cahir, however, was another matter. He sat near the foot of the table, disdain was in his eyes but he wouldn't show it as his expression remained carefully neutral. "Removing the Saint’s Cloak would set a dangerous precedent, he shouldn't be vulnerable to such an accusation my king," one of the councilors said cautiously, breaking the silence. Axel’s fingers curled over the arm of his chair, his patience was wearing thin, how could this be what they'd say now. "It Infuriates me that you take this lightly, my heir is gone! By the precedent of your reckless Saint, Shouldn't you be taking this seriously as my Councils? What is your work!." Alpha Axel slammed the table and the council all flinch

    AXEL VOSSJust like Alpha Axel's room was usually dimly lit, it was same this evening... having able to forge alliance with the DarkSword Pack even when Cahir had refused, it was a victory that didn't require blood being spilled. He wondered why Cahir was on about Ava so desperately, He probably has tons of mistresses that pleases his useless wriggling worm he calls cock, why does he obsess on claiming Ava over some long old pact? Especially the one from the mad king whom he dreads, cause Ava was his, his to break his to bind.. his possession and property. Though he loathed her, the main reason she was his possession so to break and damn her for her sins and her father's.. Months had passed and there were no response yet from the free city.

    AVA KILLIANAva woke up to the elated screams of the merchants from the upper deck. She heard their cries of excitement, she was curious to know what was going on up there, cause three days ago when their debauchery stopped, because their expensive food and wine finished, something had finally brought them joy.“Yes! We’re here! Finally see the birds!” one of the sailors shouted from above. Ava’s face lit up, They had reached land.Her heart thumped happily, but still burdened with the grief of leaving Layla behind, It had been twenty excruciating days she was on this ship, twenty days she had left her hands and escaped the realm. And she had spent nearly all of them in the dank under the ship, suffocating underbelly, surrounded by the stench of horses and their waste. The cold, damp floor had been her bed, and the sour, acrid smell of dung clung to her clothes and skin. Every night, she lay there in darkness, unable to escape the stench, her stomach twisting with sea sickness,

His jaw clenched and hands behind his back, The news from the free city was about his brother! Yes his younger brother, Aric Voss, He came from the free city, Axel had immediately sent for him to be brought to his study at once, if that was a truth, He knew Aric was dead many years ago they received the news of his death from the free city after their father banished him from the Bloodclaw pack, and now he is back? from the shadows?Perhaps Henri had mistaken his kid brother,And the door creaked silently open, and Aric Voss stepped in, his dark eyes scanning the room warily, unsure of his reception.As he saw his brother the king, the last time he saw him was at the BloodClaw pack, not as his brother anymore, but a banished exile, disowned by his family and pack, and also publicly pronounced as a rogue wolf to every packs and hous

Her legs were swollen and hurting. She wondered if she could keep up.Lord Theon’s personal physician had been attending to her for what felt like an eternity. He was just about to check her progress when Lady Theon burst into the room, her face with a smirk, seeing Ava in the distress of labor.“Physician!” she exclaimed, clutching her chest dramatically. “I require your immediate assistance! It’s urgent!” As she collapsed to the ground.Ava’s heart sank as the physician hesitated, torn between the two women. She wanted to scream, to claw at the walls in frustration, but instead, she felt the heat of tears welling in her eyes.The physician was going to

    “Note:- Chapter will be Fixed”Chloe's POV: I finished my work for today, and I bade Ella goodbye and left for my home. I bade the security man as well; I stopped a cab, and it waited, and I entered. It carried me to the address I gave him, which was my home. I walked to our house door, pressed the doorbell, and it rang, and Nicki rushed out as she almost bumped into me. She looks stuffy as she stuck chicken's lap in her mouth. "Huh, welcome, miss," Nicki said. "Thanks," I said with a smile. "Where's sister? "I asked, "I'm here; welcome, she said as she stepped out of her room. "How was the work? "She asked, "Good." I said as I quickly remembered the memories I see lately, "Sis, I'm confused about something that happens to me lately, I said, "Huhh??!! What's that?" she asked with a worried face. "I usually see someone else's memory lately," I said. "Hmm!! Was that not imagination? Or reflection to the stories you've read," she said. "No,not at all." "Really?? "Yes, I'm sure," I sa

    AVA KILLIAN Ava’s heart thudded against her ribcage as Kaila stepped further into the room.Kaila's gaze swept over the lively scene—the children engaging, Axel standing tall with his stoic calm, and Ava still clutching Darcy protectively in her arms.Kaila’s lips curled into a polite smile, but her eyes glittered with something darker, Just yesterday Kaila had humiliated her with Old Nan Yenn, that they made her question her own sanity.Is she here to complete the disdain, or is she here to check if she had killed herself and end the supposed madness? Anger crackled through Ava's heart.“What a lovely sight,” Kaila said, her tone warm and deceiving, Ava could see through her hypocritical tone, “It’s good to see the children so full of life, isn’t it, Ava?”Ava stiffened. There was a deliberate sharpness to Kaila’s words, like she had something up her sleeve, Ava needed no one to tell her Kaila had something on her for her to visit her room in the first place.Kaila turned to Axel,

  • House of the Lycans   Chapter 90: “Family Warmth”

    AVA KILLIAN Ava felt the deep feeling of being used, a deep feeling of being cheated; anger boiled in her, but at the same time she felt helpless. What gnawed at her inside was the fact that she had thought Jared was genuinely nice to her; it hurts to see he never was. It hurts to realise he had put on that mask and waited for her weakness in order to penetrate. He was a predator. It shouldn't have been him. Ava strutted through the palace, and eyes were on her, their whispers trailing her like ghosts, but their pressing glare wasn't what concerned her now; let them watch, let them judge; she had a bigger demon to face. On reaching her room, her fingers trembled slightly against her cold doorknob as she twisted and opened it; at least she could lock herself in her room, alone, and cry till there were no tears left to cry. Instead, she was met with a sight that she would never expect; she'd never anticipated this. Alpha Axel sat comfortably on her bed, ease with a loving war

    AVA KILLIANAva slept through the night and woke up the next morning. Her head throbbed, a consequence of the hangover from the drinking.As her consciousness sharpened, she realized she hadn’t just drunk excessively the night before—she had done something unholy. She could remember the heat, the desperation, the way she was touching herself. It was all vivid, raw, and wild.But when she looked down, her breath hitched. She was completely naked.Her heart leapt into her throat as she scanned her body. There were faint marks across her skin—reddened patches along her neck and thighs, subtle impressions of fingers, mouthing, and nibbling.Ava’s jaw dropped as the memory came back clearly. A man came in. She saw Alpha Axel—he looked godly, like he was in her dream, coming to rescue her.But no… This wasn’t a dream. This was real.The memories returned in detail: this man’s lips trailing across her body, his hands gripping her waist, the raw connection of flesh and heat. It was definitely

    AVA KILLIAN Ava was dragged out of Nan Yennefer's quarters, Her desperation, coupled with rejections and restrictions has truly shifted her so close to the edge of madness.Imagine being called a mad person for so long, You start to believe you were truly mad, you start to see everything you do as madness. Ava needed a lone time for herself, she needed sanity, A place that a knight was not always beside her to watch her, a place all these hostile bitter people are not around... as she took to her heels at once, running away to a place she doesn't know, so sudden that Jared was not expecting.Ava’s breath came in ragged gasps as she ran through the dimly lit halls of the castle. Her silver hair whipped behind her like a silken banner, and her bare feet slapped against the cold stone floors. Somewhere in the distance, she could hear Jared calling her name, his voice echoing with worry. But she didn’t stop. She couldn’t. The walls seemed to close in around her as the whispers of “m

    AVA KILLIAN"I should have calmed. I should have... No." Ava panicked as she paced up and down her room. Jared just stood there, watching how pretty she looked. Even in her panicked state, she still exuded this allure that sent any man into a dreamlike trance. She was dangerously alluring. "I kicked the King. I kicked the Alpha King of the Realm. Do you know what that means, Jared?" "Execution, I’d be executed!” Ava’s weary voice broke out. "Calm down and take a deep breath. I know how you must feel now. But trust me, you could have been executed in that instant. If anyone even attempts to hurt the King, they get executed on the spot. But you actually did hurt the King, and Ser. Henri left you unscathed? You should still have hope," Jared said. Ava sat on the two-seater couch in her room, her elbows on her knees, her hands covering her face, and her fingers running through her flowing silver hair as she cried. Her tears were more about being stripped of her maternal rights

    AXEL VOSS“I am their mother, and no decree of yours will ever change that.”Axel’s hand shot across her throat at once, clamping tightly as she tried hard to break free from his grip. Her eyes remained defiant; she wouldn’t falter or give him the slightest satisfaction of seeing her cry.“You are now crawling out of your shell, Ava,” he said. Ava smirked, her breath caught in her throat, but it was not as painful as the agony of not being able to see her children.“Does it hurt you so much that you cannot see my children anymore? Or are you hurt that you cannot pass your family’s madness to them?” Axel growled, and Ava was already pinned tightly to the wall.His eyes hovered over hers, domineering and intimidating, but she wasn’t submissive this time. Ava fought back—her leg flew upward in a flash, striking Axel’s manhood squarely.Axel roared in pain and released his grip at once. She fell to the ground from mid-air, met with the sound of Axel’s groans. Henri arrived just then, watc

    AXEL VOSS Axel studied the map intently while Henri stood beside him, steady and composed. "So... Cahir Cole visited the Bluemoon Pack seeking an alliance?" Alpha Axel asked, and Henri nodded affirmatively. "Yes, Your Majesty. He has been desperate ever since you left his territory. My little bird from the Bluemoon Council told me the Alpha of the Bluemoon Pack was Cahir's childhood friend. However, he didn't accept his alliance. The Bluemoon Pack is loyal to you and the realm," Henri said. "You can't totally say that. Childhood friendship is strong. He will falter to his friend sooner or later," Alpha Axel said. "But, Your Majesty, the Bluemoon Pack has been loyal to the House of the Lycans for ages," Henri said. "That is the House of the Lycans. The Bluemoon Pack was once the BloodClaw Pack's enemy. And what will happen now that an Alpha of the BloodClaw Pack has seized power in the House of Lycans?" Axel asked tactfully. "It means we can't totally trust the Bluemoon Pac
