Ava's POV

All through the journey home, no one said a word. Not me, nor Xander. As for Alpha Lark, he slept for a long time, without opening his eyes.

By the time we finally get back to the pack house, Xander made me know he was going to attend Alpha Lark, while I go see my friend, Penny. Fortunately, she was asleep.

I pecked her head and made sure the blanket was wrapped around her well. Heaving a sigh, I went back to the things I packed from Aunt Janet's side. The question as to who I was kept ringing in my head.

"I healed him, Neva. How is that even possible?" I closed my eyes, sinking into the chair next to me. Since we got home late, everyone had gone to bed, and just a few werewolf soldiers were available.

"What do we do now?" Neva questioned.

"I don't know, Neva. I just want Lark to get better." I responded, trying to pick up the white paper with the blood stains I had seen while packing Aunt Janet's stuff.

"What could she have written?" I reminisced aloud but was interrupted by

Do you think she's the treasure everyone's dying for?

  • Mated To The Lycan King    Chapter 1 - Traumatized

    Ava's POV It was pouring. Heavily.My peach-colored dress was soaked, and my phone kept vibrating in my pocket.I stood there, watching from a distance as the blood of my parents mixed with the rainwater that filled the streets. My eyes drifted to the car, still open. I could see my mom's hand, limp, hanging from the side. I started walking toward it, my legs feeling like lead. I didn't dare get too close. My voice came out as a whisper, shaky, barely audible, "Mom, mommy... are you... are you okay?"My dad's lifeless body lay flat on the floor, his eyes wide in shock as blood from his severed head pooled beneath him. My heart raced, terror creeping through me, but I couldn't shift into my wolf form. I just kept mumbling, "Daddy, Dad... please wake up! Mom! Don’t leave me! Somebody, anybody, help!"But my heart remained calm. Too calm. My body felt numb, detached from everything. I blinked twice, hoping—praying—that I was hallucinating. Maybe this was just some twisted illusion. The p

    Ava's POV Matthew was definitely a man of few words. As I sat in the passenger seat, the silence between us was palpable. The town seemed to grow more unfamiliar the deeper we went, with streets twisting and turning into areas I didn’t recognize.I couldn’t help but break the silence. "So... the new Alpha, what family is he from?"He gave me a brief side glance, the corner of his lips tugging upward, but that was the most reaction I got. "You can ask him that when you see him.""Are the four packs still united?" I tried again, hoping to get more out of him.This time, he chuckled lightly. "I see you were told stories. Yes. Still very united." He didn't look at me again after that, his focus solely on the road. The conversation hit a dead end, and I took it as a sign to stop asking questions. He clearly wasn't interested.Eventually, we arrived at a huge mansion, and I climbed out of the car, gripping my bag tightly as I followed him. The mansion was intimidating, and I couldn’t help b

    Ava's POV Horland had never seen me before, and it could only mean one of two things.One, I might have come to town in search of supernatural creatures. After all, rumors about this place ran rampant beyond its borders, and the name of the town only fueled them.Two, I was new here, and judging by his guarded expression, the latter was more likely.The town rarely had new people, but I’d heard there were a few. A male from the Commoners pack, a wandering werewolf taken in, and then… the weird Goldington girl. The one who was me."Who are you?" he asked, his voice deep, measured, though there was something else behind it. A strange pull that mirrored my own. My heart was beating faster now, and I could tell his senses were just as heightened as mine.I took a step forward, trying to steady myself, and looked at the gun still aimed in my direction. "Can you drop the gun, please? It’s kind of scary," I asked, forcing a boldness into my voice that I didn’t quite feel.He didn't answer at

    Ava's POVWhen I slowly opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was the ceiling, which appeared a bit blurry. Confusion washed over me, and I turned my head to the side, only to find my aunt sitting nearby."Welcome back. But for now, just relax, because you have a lot of explaining to do," she said before leaving the room, her voice and expression filled with anger.I tried to piece together my memories, but my head throbbed, making it difficult to recall the last events before everything went dark."I was trying to escape... I remember trying to shape-shift, and then..." I started to explain, sitting up with my back against the wall.The door suddenly swung open, and the doctor walked in—the same one who had been monitoring me without my consent."Don't be too hard on yourself, and don't strain your mind trying to remember. It's important for your mental well-being," he reassured me as he approached, holding medical instruments."Can you tell me how I ended up here? Do you have any ide

    Ava's POV"Aunt! Please, just let me go. I promise I won't go back again. Please!" I begged, but Aunt Janet didn’t believe me.She had lived in sorrow ever since my parents died. Not a day passed without her thinking of my father, Mark, whom she lost to the cold hands of death. And now, it seemed like I was following the same path, and she wasn’t ready to lose me too."No, Ava! I won’t. Until I see some changes in you, I won’t let you out," Aunt Janet lashed at me, clenching her fists as she tried to control the tears that rolled down her cheeks.I knew she didn’t want to chain me up, but she felt like she didn’t have a choice. It was the only way to stop me from going back to Lyconia."I won’t go back to Lyconia again. I’ve learned my lesson. They never loved me," I cried out, sweating profusely, the chain digging into my wrists."This is the same lie you told me before!" Janet yelled, her hand almost flying toward my face before she broke down in tears."I took you in, Ava. I clothed

    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

    Ava's POV The buzzing of my phone jolted me awake from a deep slumber. 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

"Someone's coming," Neva purred.Quickly, I closed the door leading to Aunt Janet's room, and I remained silent.Suddenly I saw a shadow pass by the window side, causing my heart to leap. With my lips drawn into thin lines, I was ready to fight back by opening the door only for me to bump into Lark.Screaming hard, he curbed my hand, causing me to miss the attack. "Let me go!" I yelled, panting heavily."Calm down, sweetheart. It's me. It's Lark." he cautioned, holding me tighter."Goddess! You scared me." I paused, trying to catch my breath.Quickly Alpha Lark's guard rushed in. "Take everything packed into the car. We'll join you shortly," he added.I looked around, still trembling at the whole tense situation. I was sure I saw a shadow, and--"You are still shaking, Ava. What happened?" Alpha Lark questioned, his eyes fixed on mine."I feel someone killed my aunt. And the person is after me too," I trembled. Yes,

    Ava's POVI had arrived on the day she was to be buried. My eyes fell on the memorial photo frame, which contained not just Aunt Janet's photo. I was shocked to see my photo alongside hers. Do they really think I was dead as well?My legs wobbled beneath me as I felt tears roll out of my eyes uncontrollably. I couldn't believe the next time I'd be seeing my aunt would be in this coffin. The white, and gold coffin staring at me-it was as if I could see her.Right now, I don't even know if getting back my memories was worth it. What I feel now is pain and anguish. I feel hurt. I felt the lungs in my air a bit restricted. Holding the wall for support, I picked up my overflowing gown, as I tried to help myself in. Refusing help from Alpha Lark's guards.I had wanted to come alone, but he wouldn't let me. My heart ached so much that I couldn't help but burst into more tears, causing everyone to look back.The first person that caught my attention was Penny. Judging from her swollen face, I

    Ava's POVValerie? Again? What exact;y does this lady want from me?"Valerie, get back inside." Alpha Lark commanded."Seriously? Do you want me to say everything here?" Valerie asked, staring at me in anger."Xander!" Alpha Lark reached out to his beta."Alpha, there is a breach in the south wall where our other pack is, he went to settle that," One of the werewolf soldiers reported."Take her inside, right now." Alpha Lark commanded the soldier."I will not take that from you!" Valerie lashed out."And I am your Alpha, I won't allow you to disrespect me in this manner!" Alpha Lark shouted, controlling his wolf from taking over. I trembled in fear upon hearing him thunder at Valerie."I might be a gentleman, but do not take that for granted." Alpha Lark growled. Turning towards the soldier who had reported to him about Xander. "If I turn to meet this thing here, you'll be sorry!""You called me a thing because of her?" Valerie was still struggling with the soldier when she got hit fro

Holding my hand like a gentleman, I was short of words.Even though I'm pregnant, and have no idea what happened in my previous life, everything I feel for him this man looks new. Like I've never loved before. It all feels like a new start.Right now, I think I'd want to be like this. If my past was a painful one, and this is my reality. Then I want to be like this."Hey, Priceless," he moved closer to me, stroking my face gently. He kissed my forehead."I don't know why this is happening, but I want you to know that you are safe with me," Alpha Lark pulled me closer. Hugging me tighter, I felt a bit at ease."The visitor came for you," Alpha Lark replied.At first, I couldn't place what he was saying. But when he finally reac

    Grindley's POV"I must have been thinking a lot," I smiled, reaching out for another drink, after realizing that the whole of Ava's Aunt being here was just my mind playing tricks on me.But I might actually be putting this pack at risk. Since I know that Ava's heart is a hunter-I've lived each day in fear of her coming back.What if she comes back with her hunter friends? Over the years, the werewolf world has been on the run from the hunters because we've never been able to contend with them.I think I need to just take away all these feelings. I can't stop thinking about Ava. Am I really sad?"Alpha, I think you need to get some rest," one of the soldiers whom I had been very kind to, over the years spoke from a mile away."And you think because I've been good to you...you think you have the right to tell me what to do huh?" I shouted, my voice holding some growls in it."I know since the Luna left the palace, you feel empty and sad, but--""Enough! Peter, go back to your position!"

I placed my hand gently on my forehand, as I tried to get out of bed."Hey, Priceless," A hand reached my shoulders, and I was fast to yank it off."Wow, that was--""Fast?" another person spoke before I finally saw who was standing in front of me."Alpha Lark," I heaved a sigh retreating into bed upon realizing I was in safe hands, only for me to see the Kitsune girl staring at me as if she wanted me dead."Priceless," Alpha Lark approached holding by the hand, while the whole place went quiet."Did someone die?" I was forced to ask seeing how tensed the whole place was.The doctor and everyone stared at me with pitiful eyes, one that I had yet to understand."There's something you need to know first--""That you are my mate?" I quickly chimed in. I know I might have lost the most impo

    Grindley's POVIt's been days since Ava has gone missing, and I couldn't help but blame it all on each and everyone that contributed to it.“You motherfucker! You caused this!” I lashed at Lucan, my brother, in anger.“And you were told she wasn't here. You brought this up on us!” Lucan's voice resonated through my ears as I heaved a sigh, my hand clenched to the arm of my throne.Drinking every day became the order of the day, as I couldn't do without seeing, Ava.I never knew I've gotten this attached, not until her body went missing beside the river Lucian had drowned, and till day I found myself thinking of her.Every lady brought forward–none of them mattered to me. All I wanted was Ava.Surprisingly, Lucian's body was the only thing found, Ava’s body disappeared mysteriously, when I've just watched Lucian took her with him while he fell off the cliff.I was lost in thoughts when one of my soldiers called from behind.“Alpha!”“Yes! Did you find her?” I questioned, handling the gl

I asked solemnly."The Alpha is at the dining table, and he's waiting," a masculine voice responded."Just a minute," I replied, my heart racing faster.Unsure of what to do, I asked that I be given a glass of water to cool off before I finally got set to meet him."Shall we?" Xander who was already at the door asked, stretching his hand to me.I heaved a sigh and swallowed hard before I put my hand in his, while he walked me down the hallway.Before I got to the dining hall, I could hear people chattering, and the clinking of glass cups, with some soft music below.My heart fluttered, as I froze on the spot, before thinking of what to say once I stepped into the gathering.I didn't know Xander his Beta could feel my resistance, not until he spoke funnily
