Ava's POV

Entering my room, I pulled out a series of clothes: a few chimney tops and some short clubbing gowns. I wasn’t sure what to wear, but Aunt Janet was quick to decide.

"I think this is good," she said, pointing at a red shiny gown.

"Don't you think it's too flashy?" I asked, rolling my eyes as I tried to put it back. But of course, Aunt Janet wasn’t having it.

"It’s not flashy, Ava. Come on! If you don’t do this, how on earth are you going to get settled? You’re twenty-six, remember?" she emphasized my age as she adjusted my shoe rack.

She picked up one of my highest heels and smiled. "I think this works," she added, winking at me.

"Aunt, this is way too high. I only wear them for special occasions. I can’t possibly wear them now," I said, rolling my eyes again.

"Nonsense! You need to catch a big man—someone who can take care of you and also be handsome. Didn't you tell me big men come to your bar?" Janet rolled her eyes right back at me.

"Okay, fine!" I gave in, taking the cl

    Ava's POV My boss was growing impatient as we lingered, signaled from afar, urging me to take the lead on the dance floor. Time was running out, and he wasn't happy with my hesitation.I cleared my throat nervously. "I'm... sorry. Let’s just dance," I muttered. The strange man sighed and pulled me gently to the middle of the dance floor, and the lights dimmed around us.Since this man was clearly an important figure, both in society and at Lavenda’s club, everyone else stepped back, leaving the stage for us."Keep the music going," my boss commanded the band, and the music resumed. As we danced, the man started asking me questions, which took me by surprise. There was something in the way he spoke—it felt like he knew something about me that I didn’t quite understand yet."Were you born here?" he asked as he spun me around effortlessly."Yes," I nodded, my body relaxing against his as the crowd clapped in approval."Tell me something," he said, gripping me at the waist, his hand b

Scratching my itchy head, I managed to grab my phone, my hair a tangled mess.Placing the phone to my ear, Penny's frantic voice blared. "Where the hell are you, Ava?!"My eyes, still closed, flew open as I looked around the unfamiliar room. Throwing off the blanket, I gasped, "Oh shit!""Ava? Get your lazy ass here. Aunt Janet is worried about you. The boss is asking after you. And—" Penny's voice cut off as I hung up the call in shock. I scrambled out of bed, only to find the man from last night was gone."What did I do?" I wondered aloud, scratching my head in confusion. My eyes were shut tight as I tried to piece together what had happened."Damn, damn, damn! Why can't I remember anything?" I slapped my face in frustration. I put on my bra and started pulling on my pants when flashes of last night suddenly crashed back."Awww... Please...""Did I say that?" I scratched my head in total confusion. "Oh my goodnes

    Ava's POVJust as Aunt Janet crashed into the limousine in front of us, a stunned silence blanketed the street, the impact echoing even through the cars far behind us. If it hadn’t been for the seat belts holding us in place, we could have easily suffered serious injuries."Are you hurt?" Aunt Janet asked, her voice tinged with worry as I placed my hand on my head and nodded vigorously."I'm okay, I'm not hurt. Are you?" I asked, though we both seemed to forget that we were werewolves and there might be someone in that limousine who could have been hurt."Why did you make that noise earlier?" Aunt Janet nearly yelled, her frustration evident. She was trying to maintain control, realizing that I had just lost my job.Before I could respond, there was a knock on the window. Aunt Janet rolled down the tinted glass."Did you realize you just bashed someone's car?" asked the man in glasses, his face contorted into a frown. From his appearance, he clearly wasn’t here to resolve things amicab

    Ava's POVThe doctor glanced between Aunt Janet and me, noting the tension on my face."Relax, Miss Ava, you’re okay... at least..." the doctor sighed, trailing off with, "For now."He handed Aunt Janet a white envelope, which she checked but couldn’t decipher. "For now, we can’t tell if she’s okay or not. She might want to come back in three weeks.""Aunt Janet...""Okay, thanks, doctor. She will definitely come around," Aunt Janet said, shaking the doctor’s hand and signaling me to stand up.Shaking, I followed Aunt Janet out of the hospital and into the Peugeot 505. Throughout the drive, we were both silent."I’d like to get out here. I need to go to my therapy," I quickly said, knowing Aunt Janet would likely lash out if I didn’t find a way to deflect her frustration.Meanwhile, Penny had been texting me non-stop, so I called her."Bye Aunt, see you in the evening," I said, bowing my head and slamming the car door before Aunt Janet could scold me further.I glanced at my phone and

    Ava's POV"You again?" The masculine voice repeated consistently like I had done something wrong. Like coming back was a mistake. I shook to the marrow, as I felt my hand freezing. It happened to have rained heavily before I got to Lyconia, and everywhere was freezing cold. I heard my teeth hit each other before I turned back to see Matthew, the man I had met the first time, who had introduced me to the Alpha of the Mooner's pack. "I guess you wanna pick up from where you left huh?" His words were harsh and mocking. My wet hair dripped of water, as I managed to speak with my knuckles hitting each other. "I want to see..." I shook consistently, my words barely above a whisper. "You want to see..." I looked at Matthew who delighted in mimicking me, before I heard my phone vibrating. Just as my phone started to vibrate, his eyes landed on my bag. I quickly dipped my hand inside of it and switched it off. Because if it happens that the caller is Aunt Janet, I might have everyone to c

I stuttered, begging for my life, not until I heard a loud crash causing everyone to troop out of their place, looking in the right direction the sound had come from.My eyes dropped to the floor, and I saw Horland bleeding profusely. Looking back to face the person who had carried me in his arms, I almost fainted at the beauty staring right at me. He was 6 ft 9 tall. His golden eyes stared at me imminently as I felt my heart pounded against the walls of my heart. I looked at my right hand which was resting on his bare built chest, which was revealed as a result of his slightly opened button. His curly black hair complimented his thin, flat pink lips, and his pointed nose added to his beauty, which was so mesmerizing.I could see every lady place their hands on their mouth, looking at me in shock, as murmurs and whisper

    Ava's POVI felt his hand move to the back of my clothes, and my eyes fell on his strong arms which lingered on my waist, as his eyes bored into mine.His smell, his scent, his sets of white teeth, his touch...it was like fire, and right now, even without him stripping off my clothes yet, I could feel naked. My wolf, Neva was already wagging her tail, and my face was all red hot."I..." I let out a small moaning sound, as the last drop of tears which had settled on my left eye, came dropping down."I...I don't wanna..." I paused a bit when he pulled me closer, my lips in thin lines, as I watched his lips, I felt a bit dumb, but in a flash, I pulled away, " I'm sorry, but I need to go back home. My Aunt must not know that I'm here," I stuttered in fear, as I felt his hand leave my waist."It's okay. Where is your home?" Alpha Grindley withdrew himself from me, looking at me so intensely, before getting a lighter shirt to cover his hot body--woah, he's fucking hot. I don't know how I man

    Ava's POVI know Aunt Janet was watching out for me, trying her best to make sure I was fine, to make sure I was okay, but this was just too intense. This was too much for me! And right now, I do not think I can take it any longer.I clenched my fist, with tears rolling down my cheeks, I looked at Aunt Janet, who was still standing at the entrance of the door."You can never know the way I feel. I was the one who lost her parents, Aunt Janet!" I lashed at her in anger for the first time, sniffing violently; as I moved back slowly, with my cheeks still burning hot, I entered back into the rain, which had already started to drizzle, causing my clothes to get soaked instantly.“You think I do not know how you–”“No, you don’t! My parents died without any traces. I was the one who watched them got rid to pieces. You were not the one. And what? You want me to sit by, and do nothing, even when there are chances for me to find out who was behind this murderer?” I yelled in the rain, my tears

But no, my beautiful daughter Lena had displayed her abilities beautifully, and she has taken every gift that the moon goddess has bestowed upon me.Blood started oozing from my ears, as tears continued to flow down my face. Now that death was calling, I never wanted to leave anymore.“Ava,” Lark called my name in what seemed like stutters. His hands shook in fear as he tried to stop the blood. But it was inevitable.My vision, which was blurred with tears, never made me realise that he was already tearing up. “Lark,” I whispered in pain, the veins on my head pulsating, as I raised my hand, which was already filled with blood, to wipe off his tears.“You are stronger than this–”“No,” he cuts in, mucors dripping off his nose. “No, I’m not, Ava Goldington. You are my strength.” He cried out, holding my hands tight, and a co

I panted slowly as I watched my daughters rush towards me.“Are you okay?” Lark, Penny, Lena, Liara, and Xander all chorused.“Yes,” I said, my eyes still fixed on Lena’s hair. “Can you see that?” I asked Lark whose eyes were still on me.Lark heaved a sigh before placing a hand on my head. “Ava, you are burning up. Why didn’t you tell me you are sick?”“Sick? No, I’m not. It’s just a–” I wasn’t done with my speech when I heard Lena’s mind communicating with mine.“Mommy, are you okay?” At first, I thought it was my imagination. Maybe it was another trance. But no. This was real.This wasn’t a trance. Lena has one of my powers now. She could read minds.“Sorry, everyone. We’ll be stopping here today,” Lark replied before asking Xander to take over.“Get the pack’s doctor,” he ordered Penny, who nodded and quickly left without asking many questions. “And you, take care of the kids and the gifts,” Lark commanded the maids, as

Soon her eyeballs couldn’t be seen as a whirlwind started to circulate her. “Listen to me, Ava, daughter of Aelle,” she started.Right now, it was clear that Pamela had been taken over by the moon goddess. It was clear now that the Moon goddess indeed was the one who wanted to talk to me through the Priestess.“You have failed in your quest, Ava Goldington.” She lashed, her voice laced with anger.The light around her started to shine brighter, one that I couldn’t comprehend.Penny and I couldn’t help but fall to our knees to acknowledge the moon goddess who has appeared to us through Pamela in her glory.“How did I fail?” I stuttered in fear. “I stopped the sh

    Ava’s POV“Lark…fuck!” I moaned as I felt his wet lips on my nipples. Teasing them with tiny little bites.“Shhh…you don’t want the kids to hear that,” Lark giggled with his finger sliding in and out of me.I held the bedsheet tighter as I curled my toes. Gasping for air that seemed a bit unavailable. I dug my fingers into his back.“Aww…Neva!” I screamed in ecstasy, but Lark was quick to shut me up with his lips.“Mmmm…” That was all I could do as he continued to pleasure me beneath.I felt my body get hot beneath him as I held him closer. “Lark…fuck. Don’t do this.”“Say my name again?” he said, gently sucking my earlobes.It’s been six years of peace and unity in the whole kingdom of Lyconia.After the fight with the shadows, we had no more reason to fight one another. As for Grindley and his brother Lucan, I have no idea where they were, or what they are doing. All I knew was that the fight with the wolf shadows was a very difficult one. And I doubt if they ever succeeded in defe

I can feel her.My strength increased, and everything around me suddenly came to life.The blood that had dropped on my body suddenly cleared off. The clouds began to gather, and the skies started pouring their content.“I thought you were going to leave me.” I cried out, my tears mixed with rain.I tried to get on my feet as I watched the shadows become visible, something we could see.“We need to stand on the ground and fight. This is war,” Pamela warned, and the fight began.Right now, we can see the shadows we fight. And I hope that’s the same all over the world.I felt my bones snap, and my senses heightened. My legs started to turn, and my fingers began to bring out their claws just when I needed it.This only means one thing. “My wolf, she’s here,” I smiled and howled into the air.Sticking to Pamela as we got surrounded by the shadow soldiers. “If I

Sadness was written all over their faces.This was precisely what I was running from, and now my greatest fear has come to pass.“What do I do?” I whispered beneath my breath.“We stand and fight,”“Lark! Are you mad?!” I launched immediately, even before Xander could say another word.I could read between the lines. It was obvious that everyone was tired. I cannot continue to act this way. I’m the one they are looking for. And I need to learn how to destroy them.“So what? Are you really going to leave and face those things yourself?” Lark asked, gesturing with a sad expression.I’ve already risked my li

And our ashes will be the only thing history will have left recorded of us. “Surrender, Lucan,” I replied, pulling my claws from the neck of one of his soldiers that I just tore apart. We were already getting closer to each other. And one thing was clear. We have to face one another. We have to kill ourselves.Someone must die. But who will? “It’s clear that you’ll be the one to die, brother,” I added. “Why not put your swords down and serve me?” I proposed.At first, he kept his head bowed, looking at his environment, that were filled with soldiers fighting for their lives and for the pack at large.“And what makes you think I’d wanna do that?” He asked, pulling his sword out from one of my soldiers he just killed, too.I started to walk towards him, calculating every one of my steps.

I was met with an eerie silence.It dawned on me that I might be deserted by my wolf as well. Just like how my parents had left me. My foster parents–everyone.I’m alone. I’m going to die without anyone noticing. Finally, today’s when I meet my ancestors. “No one is coming to save you,” Nora’s voice echoed through my thoughts.Yes, she was right. No one is truly coming to save me. It’s never happening.I watched the Beta raise his sword, accompanied by his claws.“I’m sorry. I’m only following orders,” he said slowly, and was about to strike me when I heard a low growl from the entrance.“Let her go!” the voice was sharp and commanding. I opened my eyes in disbelief. I know that voice. “Lark,” I gasped amidst my tears. “You came back,” I burst into tears.“Move back!” The Beta commanded, picking me up from the ground with his claws set to my throat.“Luna, get behind

Was I worth shedding blood for?Do they really believe I’m the treasure the Moon goddess was talking about?Why then do I feel so ordinary and powerless? “Brother,” Alpha Grindley’s voice mixed with that of his wolf, as his wolf’s voice could be heard alongside his.“I don’t want to hurt you,”“I don’t want to hurt you either!” Lucan stepped forward. “Hand her over,”“No!” Alpha Grindley charged.Before I knew what was going on, half of Alpha Grindley’s body had turned into his wolf. The rest of his body underwent a drastic change in pain.“Do you think I’m going to give her to you without a fight, bro? Then you are wrong!” Alpha Grindley lashed.Jumping at one of Lucan’s guards, he tore him apart, blood dripping to the ground, accompanied by a loud growl.“Protect the treasure with your life!” Alpha Grindley shouted. “Protect the Luna as well,” he ordered.With that, war broke out, and eve
