Hi readers, It's been a while. Things are getting more complicated, ain't they? Ava is losing everything. Her baby, and even her only chance of finding out why her parents died.
Ava’s POV“Elara, you didn’t tell me you were going to be back so soon,” Alpha Grindley asked, while I watched in amazement.Elara? That's her name.But who is she to Alpha Grindley?“Grindley? Who is she?” I watched Elara walk towards me, staring at me like I was some sort of thrash.“Why are you here at this hour, Elara?” Alpha Grindley turned away from me. Yanking his hand away from her.“Grindley, why are you behaving as if I’m–”“Elara! You are yet to answer me! Why the hell are you here?” Alpha Grindley sniffed, his eyes darting from me to Lucian, whose gaze was set on me, and John, whose anger was still directed at me.This whole drama is making me feel weak and dizzy.I can't believe Alpha Grindley coerced me into this, asking me to produce an heir in exchange for finding out the mystery behind my parents' death when he clearly seems to have another lady in secret?“I’m here for you, okay? Didn’t you ask me to go to Canada to become a doctor? Grindley? Why are you suddenly mad
Ava’s POVA loud bang woke me up from my sleep, and I felt a whip hit me from behind.“Fuck! That hurts!” I winced in pain.“Wake them up! Wake the slaves up. We gotta move faster!” I heard a fierce voice speak from behind.I watched the man who seemed huge, and his eyes had the moon’s light in them, pulling us out with the chains on our legs dangling.“Move it!” He shouted.And it dawned on me that Aunt Janet wasn’t the one who had attacked us earlier.It seemed to be the Mooner’s pack enemies.“If anyone is not listening to your commands, just kill them off. Remember, the Alpha hates sluggish people!” their leader lashed out.And as we walked in chains, some feeble ones amongst us kept falling, and without wasting much time, they were killed on the spot.“Double up!” the man in charge of the slaves continued to kill the weak ones who seemed to fall on the way.It was clear to me right now–everything was clear.The reason why my parents had left Lyconia to settle in the city.Why Aun
Ava’s POVI watched the werewolf soldier tremble in fear, his eyes fixed on his sword.I could read the surrounding tension, and I knew something dangerous was about to happen.“Cat got your tongue?! Why is no one answering me?” Their Alpha questioned.“Alpha, we tried our best, but we couldn't get the treasure. And—” The soldier's words came to an abrupt end as the Alpha passed through him with his sword.Blood came squirting everywhere, and his head fell off his neck instantly.“You didn't find the treasure?” he lashed in anger, his hand gagging the soldier who held me captive and had brought me to him.“We tried but…we couldn't, Alpha.” He choked on his words.I smirked, knowing fully that the treasure they sought after was still in the Mooner's pack, but could only be seen by those who possess a special ability beyond the werewolf powers.“So you brought me a woman instead of a treasure? Have you gone mad?!” He growled, smashing him against the wall while he walked towards me.“And
Ava’s POV“Hello,” I woke up in a place that was more like a garden.The sun was shining at its peak, and the aura from the flowers was a balm to my wounded soul.“Neva, are you there?” I called out. But I was met with just silence.“Hello, beautiful lady,” A voice had jolted me out of my thoughts.Looking behind me fearfully, I tried so hard to swallow the lump in my throat.“Hello, who are you? Show yourself,” I replied in fear.All I could feel were a breeze and shadows, one that passed through me at regular intervals.“Hello, Ava,” finally a feminine audible voice spoke from behind me.Turning back slowly, I clenched my fist, and partly shut my eyes.“I’m not here to hurt you, sweetheart. You can open your eyes now,” She added, placing her hand on my shoulders.And just as I did that, I saw an old woman who should probably be in her mid-sixties, standing in front of me. Her hair was old, but partially.Her body was all wrinkled, and the hands which she placed on my shoulder shook.
Grindley’s POVNo sooner had I laid Ava on the bed than I noticed some strange voices from unusual quarters.My senses heightened, and my ears became sharper, causing me to leave Ava with the doctor who was attending to her.“I will be back. Nothing must happen to her, because if she dies, you will pay with your blood,” I threatened solemnly.“Yes, Alpha,” just as he bowed towards me, I reluctantly left Ava and started trailing the sound I kept hearing.Just as I got to one of the guest rooms which was a bit far from my main room, since I had lots of visitors.The scene happening right in front of me had left me dumbstruck.“When did they start this?” I questioned myself.I have always known it. Elara wasn't going to change, and now she has the guts to do this with my beta?I felt disgusted and angry. I can't believe Elara was still a whore even up till now.I thought she had changed.Flashback“Pack your things, Elara. I don't want to see you in this pack again.” I had sent Elara away
Ava's POVJust as I watched this creature who was backing me, turning himself to face me gradually, a hand reached out from behind, and I woke up to reality.My breath became unstable, and my heartbeat raced faster.I was back to reality.Back to the whole pain, I thought I had left behind. I'm back to the Mooner's pack where all my troubles had began.And as tears rolled down my cheeks, I tried to reach out to Avanti, the lady that had helped me, but I finally came back to my senses."It was all a dream, Ava," I spoke silently to myself.I was mad at myself. I felt so angry. “Neva, we were close to seeing him,” I burst into tears.Wiping my tears as I tried to comfort myself.Maybe it’s time to go back home. This is useless anyway. Maybe I was doing too much. I couldn’t help but recall Aunt Janet’s voice in my head."You know Ava, I want you to have a good life. Marry a good man, and set aside any grudges you hold against your parent’s mysterious murderer.” “But Aunt, I can’t just f
Ava's POVJust as he pulled me closer, I felt his beard brush against my neck, as he left some hickey on my neck, while I held the door handle tighter.I felt more tears roll down my cheeks.I know I'm supposed to resist this guy here after I've lost one child to the cold hands of death. But I find myself fighting so hard with this unrealistic emotion that exists between us."Grindley, why are you doing this?" I gasped as I felt his hand trailing my thighs from beneath.What is this? Are we doing this again?! I thought to myself as I quickly yanked his hand off."Leave me alone, please!" I shouted.The more I tried to avoid him, the wetter I felt.I mean, the heat, and the tension in this room--the aura he exhibits, they are just too much for me to say no to.If only I can avoid the air this monster breathes in.I knew I was stuck with Alpha Grindley, and he would stop at nothing tonight other than to penetrate me. I can see it in his eyes.And the worst part was, there was no way I wa
Ava’s POVJust after he said that he turned towards me, throwing my clothes at me annoyingly.I blinked countless times, as I looked at him, shocked.“W–What are you doing?” I questioned, holding the bedsheet closer to my chest, as the clothes he threw landed on my face.“Get into those, and get out of my room.” He ordered, looking at me so weirdly like he wasn’t just all over me a few seconds ago.“Can I have my phone now?” I asked.“Didn’t you hear me? Or have you suddenly gone deaf?” He snapped at me, growling.Just as I saw his red eyes, I quickly put on my clothes and dashed out of the room.“Get out!” he roared.Slamming the door shut, I ran into Sandra who pushed me away, causing me to hit my head against the wall which was close by.I could hear the maids giggling, and just when I seethed, they scurried off quickly.I slammed my hand on the floor in anger, picking up my underwear, and for the first time, I looked Sandra in the eyes.“What exactly is your problem?” I seethed.“S
Ava's POVI could see the shock in people's eyes. It looks as if I had committed one sort of taboo.I watched this god in front of me blink multiple times, watching me with awe before bursting into laughter."You know you are so funny, bold, and stupid!" His last words came like a bomb.I can't believe someone would call me stupid. I mean, I know Alpha Grindley uses force on me, and makes me want to do a lot of things with him, but he has never called me stupid."Maybe if you had waited, he might have broken the rules like this one is doing?" Neva interrupted."You know I do love a challenge," The Alpha in front of me replied."Whether you like a challenge or not, read my lips," I stood confidently before him. "I.Am.Not.Going.To-""Take her to the darkest place in the dungeons, and make her learn her lesson. Now!" he commanded.Just immediately the guards held me again, just like they had done earlier, dragging me towards the unknown."Neva, I feel dizzy," I replied, and soon I blacked
Ava’s POVMy eyes were blindfolded during the journey, but I was sure of one thing, I’d been taken so far from the Mooner’s pack, and even from the city at large.“Hiya!” I could hear some men hitting the horses, while they neighed louder.“We are not stopping, the Alpha is expecting us tonight.” I could hear the voice of their commander.Since I’d been tied with a rope that I couldn’t seem to break loose from, I decided to let go.But just as I was trying to sleep, I could hear some muffled voices behind me. It was then I realized I wasn’t alone.“I can sense many people in here, we are not the only ones,” Neva my wolf replied.“Neva, are you okay now? Can you help me break off this chain?” I communicated with Neva through my mind.This is rare, not everyone can do that. But for some reason, I could.“I can’t. I’m still weak. I can smell wolfbane a few miles from here. It’s weakening me.” Neva replied.“Fuck! But who the hell was Alex? Something tells me he’s not real. I shouldn’t hav
Ava’s POVI froze on the spot upon hearing Alpha Grindley’s voice from behind.“Do you think he heard us?” I whispered, my palm becoming all sweaty.“I don’t know,” Neva purred.And as I trembled on the spot, I felt so confused and lost. I didn't even know where to turn until I felt a hand pull me inside one of the corners in the palace.“Please don’t–” I wasn’t done talking when he placed his hand on my lips.“Don’t speak,” he whispered, looking out to be sure Alpha Grindley was gone.“I thought I heard Ava’s voice?” I could hear Alpha Grindley talking to the werewolf soldiers who had turned me back from entering my room the other time.“Yes, Alpha. We didn’t allow her inside. Just as you commanded,” The werewolf soldier reported.“Good,” he replied, surveying around before leaving.And just immediately he left, I heaved a sigh. “Who are you?” I suddenly became conscious of the man that was standing beside me.“I’m John’s friend,” he stepped away from me, bowing to show some respect
