Ava led the girls to the cave, the fireflies lighting their way. As they settled in, the girls looked at each other nervously. Many questions were twirling in their mind. They looked at Ava with mixed emotions, probably wondering about her double identity as a wolf and a human being. However, since she had saved them, they had no reason to be afraid of her, or her strange friends; fireflies, fawn and the owl, which did not enter the cave with them. Most importantly, they were still reliving the terrible experience they just had."What was that test they made us take?" one of them asked, her voice trembling.Ava's expression turned grim. "It was a trick. They were trying to see if you were virgins."The girls gasped, outrage and disgust on their faces."That's sick," one of them spat. "How could they do that to us?"Ava nodded. "They are ruthless. But we are safe now. You are safe."The girls nodded, still looking shaken. One of them spoke up, her voice barely above a whisper."I don't
Oberon returned to the rogues’hideout and saw as Tim stormed through the laboratory, his face twisted in rage. "How could you all be so incompetent?" he snarled, his eyes scanning the room. "The girls were rescued, and we didn't even see it coming. What were you all doing?”The rogues cowered, avoiding eye contact. "We didn't expect the rescue team to be so organized," one of them mumbled.Tim's anger boiled over. "Organized? They must have had inside help. I want to know who was behind this."He paced back and forth, his fists clenched. "This is a disaster. Lord Marcus will have my head on a platter. I may lose my Beta position for sure."One of the rogues spoke up, trying to defend himself. "It wasn't our fault, Tim. We were caught off guard—"Tim cut him off, his voice dripping with venom. "Caught off guard? You were supposed to be the best. Now we look like fools."He stopped pacing and fixed the rogues with a cold stare. "We need to regroup and come up with a new plan. And fast.
Ava drifted off to sleep, her mind still reeling from the day's events. But as she slipped into the realm of dreams, she found herself standing in a familiar, silver-lit forest. The air was filled with the sweet scent of blooming flowers, and the soft chirping of crickets provided a soothing background hum. As she wandered through the forest, the trees grew taller and the path grew narrower, until she came to a clearing. In the center of the clearing stood an enormous tree, its trunk glowing with a soft, ethereal light.And there, standing before the tree, was the Moon Goddess. The ageless goddess with silvery wispy hair, heaped upon her head and caught in place with the flowery crown. Her eyes were blue color showing her deep love for Ava. Clothed in flowing white gown with white shoes on her pretty feet, Moon Goddess kept shining with that ethereal light, invisible to the eyes. She remained the true description of a fairy godmother in those bedtime stories. Ava's heart swelled with
As Sebastian walked away from the café, the cool night air enveloped him, carrying the sweet scent of blooming flowers and the distant chirping of crickets. His thoughts drifted back to the banished wolfless omega of Bloodmoon pack, and the memory of her piercing green eyes."Lois, I should have found her by now," Sebastian muttered to himself, his voice barely audible over the sound of his boots on the gravel path.His inner wolf, Lois, stirred within him, her voice a gentle growl. "Patience, Sebastian. We will find her."Sebastian's mind wandered back to the day he lost the omega to the rogues in the gingham forest. He had been so caught up in the moment that he forgot to protect her. The memory of the sweet sound of her voice haunted him."Lois, what if I am too late?" Sebastian whispered, his voice cracking with emotion.Lois's response was a fierce whisper in his mind. "You will not be too late, Sebastian. We will find her, and we will bring her home."Sebastian's determination g
It was dawn, daybreak just peeping out of its resting place, preparing for another duty of lighting the world. Ava roused from her sweet sleep as if from faraway land. She knew she had spent about a month in the forest, remembering the full moon last night. The lovely cave had become more than a home to Ava. It had become her family house, her military base, meeting headquarters, her social club and her fortress, a place of refuge from the harsh weather of the forest, and the cruel rogues. Ava looked around the homely cave, hidden within the Gingham Forest. She glanced at the entrance, guarded by a tapestry of tangled foliage and gnarled branches, which made the cave blend easily into the surrounding landscape, like a chameleon, making it nearly invisible to the unsuspecting eye. Ava drew in the scent of damp earth and aged stone, synonymous with the cave. She listened to the sound of dripping water echoing off the walls, a soothing melody to lonely souls. The dripping was in harmony
The sun was just coming out to resume its daily task, for it shed light over the forest, casting a warm orange glow over the trees as Sebastian stepped out of his car. He took a deep breath, feeling the crisp air fill his lungs, and gazed out at the familiar landscape. It had been a month since he'd last searched for the omega, and he couldn't shake the feeling that he'd abandoned her."Let's get moving," he said to Scott, who nodded silently and fell into step beside him.As they walked, the rustle of leaves and snapping of twigs beneath their feet served as a reminder of the forest's vastness. Sebastian's senses were on high alert, his ears perked up and his nose twitching as he scanned their surroundings."I've been thinking," Scott said, breaking the silence. "Maybe we should try a different approach this time. We can't just keep searching blindly."Sebastian nodded thoughtfully. "I've been thinking the same thing. We need a new plan."They walked in silence for a few moments, the
Was this really the vulnerable wolfless omega he had seen in Bloodmoon pack? Sebastian could not believe how different Ava had become within one month. How could someone change that fast? She had become so fierce and anxious. Her sweet voice lingered in his ears, though her words were unpleasant they came out with a pleasant – smell? Sebastian's nose twitched as he caught the sweet, familiar scent of vanilla. But it was mixed with something else - a wild, wolfish aroma that made his hackles rise."Scott, do you smell that?" Sebastian asked, his voice low and puzzled. He turned to his friend, his eyes scanning the forest floor as if searching for answers.Scott sniffed the air, his brow furrowed. "Smell what?" He sounded confused, but his eyes betrayed a hint of curiosity.Sebastian's eyes narrowed. "The vanilla scent. It's...different. There's something wolfish about it." He took a step closer to Scott, his voice dropping to a whisper. "I think Ava's hiding something from us."As they
As he approached the Bloodmoon pack's post, Sebastian could feel the weight of their gaze upon him. Scott had parked the car at the boundary and was doing some digging for Sebastian, whose eyes locked onto the entrance, where Alpha Scott awaited him."Sebastian," Alpha Scott growled, his voice low and menacing. "What brings you to our territory?"Sebastian's eyes locked onto the alpha's. "I'm here about Ava. I want to know more about her past, and why she was tormented by your pack."Alpha Scott's expression turned calculating, and for a moment, Sebastian wondered if he'd made a mistake coming here. But then, the alpha nodded, a small smile playing on his lips."Very well, Sebastian. Let's talk about Ava."“Why did you banish her?” Sebastian asked, straight to the point.Alpha Scott's expression turned cold, his voice dripping with disdain. "Ava was a stain on our pack, a reminder of weakness. She was wolfless, a freak of nature. We banished her to maintain our pack's purity."Sebasti
