Chapter 61:A Taste of Freedom

Avy

Jade wrenched up the driver's door as we drove into the school parking lot. The car's speakers played a ridiculous pop song that would stick in your brain for days. Jade shouted out the lyrics, her voice trembling at the high notes.

"I'm walking on sunshine, whoa-oh!" She screamed, banging her palms against the driving wheel. I cringed, the sound cutting against my already frazzled nerves.

"Please, for the sake of all that is sacred, stop. I would wish to maintain my hearing." Jade smacked my arm playfully, her emerald eyes full of mischief.

"Party pooper." "You used to love this song." I used to enjoy a wide range of activities, I recalled. But I didn't say it outright loud.

Instead, I mustered a smile. "Maybe in another life." We stumbled out of the car, the fresh morning air a shock after the stifling cabin. Jade was still humming, off tune and carefree. For a minute, I felt light. Free. Like, maybe today will be different. I noticed the stare

    Avyaane pov For the first time in weeks, I felt close to liberated. I wasn't sure where we were heading or what would happen next. But I didn't really care at the time. I had had enough of being the good girl, the sufferer, and the reject. It was time to become someone new. As we walked, the others made jokes and laughed. I let their voices wash over me without truly listening. My thoughts were still at school, repeating Alison's words. What exactly did she mean about Kate? And why was it important to me? But then Jade wrapped her arm through mine, drawing me into the conversation. "Earth to Avy," she whispered, her voice full of alarm. "You still with us?" I blinked and focused on her face. On the faces of these strangers who had no idea or cared about my past. Who viewed me as just another girl skipping class. "Yeah," I said, managing a real smile this time. "I'm here." And I was. For better or worse, I was stepping into a new world. A world where I wasn't defined by my lost wo

    Chapter 63: Fundraising Avyaane pov The sun burned down on my neck as I walked to our location behind the old gas station. Sweat flowed down my spine and soaked into the waistband of my jeans. The air in my lungs was thick and heavy with the scent of gasoline and scorching asphalt. I strained against the glare and noticed Zeke and Brick already there. They were shoving each other while giggling. A stupid game. Boys. Jade's shoulder brushed against min juste as we neared. "Looks like the idiots started without us," she added, amused. I grunted. I didn't have anything to say. My head was elsewhere, thinking about Chad. He'd seen me that day at the café, skipping class. I had readied myself for an explosion at home. The yelling. Maybe even the hitting. But it never came. He didn't come home for two days straight. The others didn't appear to care what I'd been up to either. No lectures. No punishment. Just nothing. It ached, that void. But that was preferable to being their punching

    Chapter 64: Conflicting Choice Chad pov I tapped my fingers on the round marble table. The sound resonated around the room, breaking through the quiet murmur of conversations. Twelve elderly people encircled me, their features etched with age and distrust. Beta Henderson sat to my right, a continuous reminder of what I had to gain. And lose. The oldest senior, a woman with steel-gray hair and flint-like eyes, spoke first. "I'm Elder Margaret. "I manage the pack's finances." Her voice cracked with age, yet there was steel beneath it. "You'd do well to listen to my counsel, young Alpha." I nodded, keeping my expression calm. Her voice was full with scorn. She felt I was too young. They all did. One by one, theythe elders introduced themselves. Each speech was the same. Their role. Their importance. How they would guide me. The underlying message never changed. You're too young. You're not ready. Elder Thomas, a portly man with a permanent scowl, leaned forward. "I manage inter-pack

    Chapter 65: Cheating Chad pov I let myself in, the door unlocked with a gentle click. The home was silent, and the air seemed dense and oppressive. My footsteps boomed across the hardwood floor as I walked directly to the stairs. Her room was located on the second level, at the end of the hallway. As I neared, I heard something that caused me to hesitate. Moans. Soft at first, then booming. The moist noises of kissing, of skin on Skin. The aroma of desire assaulted me, making me dizzy. My heart raced in my chest. It could not be. She would not. I came closer, remaining silent on the carpeted floor. The door was slightly cracked open enough to see inside. A bedside lamp provided the only light in the room, giving a gentle, golden glow over everything. Alison lay on her bed, naked and squirming. Her head was flung back, her golden hair strewn across the pillows. Logan is on top of her. My brother. "God, you're so much better than Chad," Alison exclaimed, raking her nails down Logan's

    Chapter 66: A Dance with the Rogue KingAvyanne pov The sequins on my borrowed dress caught the light from the dazzling fairy lights placed between the trees as I made my way through the enthusiastic crowd. Standing before us like an opulent cabin tucked away in the forest and bordered by water was the vast hall. Every window was filled with laughing and music that blended in with the sound of the waves crashing onto the beach. We arrived late. Here, Jade's old car had failed halfway through and left us stranded on the side of the road. The sun had already set when we managed to restart it. Cars were jam-packed into every available spot in the parking lot. Moonlight shimmered on the elegant lines of yachts as they bobbed on the water. My friends ran forward, excited to take part in the celebrations.My bladder, however, had other ideas. I shouted after them, "I'll catch up," barely audible over the party noise. "Need to use the bathroom." Jade acknowledged with a wave as she made

    Chapter 67: New LunaChad pov The jacket on the suit was too tight. The maids hurried all around me, ironing wrinkles and tugging at sleeves, but I remained motionless. With the exception of their gentle motions and the grandfather clock ticking away in the corner, the room was silent. I fixed my gaze on the mirror image. I didn't know this man who was staring back at me. His gaze was reserved and stern. His jaw's set spoke of resolve, or even desperation. It was almost impossible for me to recognize myself. I felt as heavy as the crown I would soon wear from the weight of what I was about to undertake. Its door flew open. Swallowing a garment bag, Alison swept in. Her perfume struck me immediately; it was overly sweet and overwhelming. The housemaids dispersed akin to alarmed birds. "You are there!" Alison's voice was sharp and clear. "I've been trying to reach you all day." I slowly pivoted. "I stopped by earlier. Nobody took a response. It tasted bad, the lie. I noticed once mo

    Chapter 68: CrownChad"Obviously not. Enjoy the celebrations, please." They dispersed when the throng engulfed them. My jaw hurt from clenching so tightly as I peered after them. Seeing Avy on another man's arm was like taking a punch to the body. "Chad?" Right at my elbow was Alison. "The coronation is about to happen. Must we not? "Not right now," I said, a little more sternly than intended. Her face flashed with pain as she fell back. My voice became softer. "I need a little time. I'll locate you quickly. I moved past her, perplexed, and pushed through the throng. How far away were they? I noticed brief moments - a glimpse of Avy's attire, Davis's shadowy head leaned near hers. Never quite within grasp. As the night went on, faces and conversations became a haze. I did my share by grinning and extending a handshake. However, I never stopped looking. Jade's vivid hair caught my attention among the throng. Our gazes locked, and I witnessed her recognition of me. Avy turned as she

    Chapter 71: Knocking HeadsAvyaane With the world whirling around me, I stood motionless. I could still hear Chad's incredible, earth-shattering remarks. The whispers of the audience subsided into a faint roar. All that was visible to me was Chad's waiting, extending hand. "I, Chad Blackwood, Alpha of the pack, declare Avyaane as my mate and Luna." His tone was firm and confident. "Please accept." My mouth became parched. This cannot be taking place. Not after everything. Not after he'd rejected me, selected Alison. But look at him, his eyes beseeching, wearing a suit that was an exact match for my clothing. The yacht's deck felt like it was wobbling under my feet. Perhaps it was simply me, shaky in the face of this impossibility. A golden haze formed as the fairy lights hung overhead blurred. The crowd's faces blended together into a sea of gaping mouths and astonished looks. There was a light squeeze on my arm. Jade stood next to me, her worried eyes wide. "Avy," she murmured. "Y

    Chapter 111: Eternal LoveAvyaane pov As I stood on the balcony, looking out over the vast expanse of the pack lands, I couldn't help but feel a deep sense of thankfulness and astonishment. The sun was just starting to set, painting the sky in a stunning array of reds and golds, and the gentle breeze carried the familiar scents of home - the earthy richness of the forest, the sweet fragrance of the blooming wildflowers, the faint hint of pine that had always been a comforting presence in my life. I felt completely at peace in moments like these, when the world appeared to slow down and all of the noise and commotion of daily life faded away. This area, this pack, and this family. It was where I belonged, where I had discovered the unconditional love and acceptance I had sought for so long. A gentle giggle from behind me grabbed my attention, and I turned to see Chad stroll out onto the balcony, a playful grin on his lovely face. "Penny for your thoughts, my love?" He muttered, throwi

    Chapter 110: Family Avyaane povAnd we were. In the weeks and months that followed, the darkness of Allison's breakdown vanished, giving way to the dazzling, unshakeable joy that filled our lives. The triplets thrived, becoming more beautiful and lively with each passing day, and Chad's commitment to them - and to me - appeared to grow stronger every time. The rest of our family took note of the transformation as well. Logan, Killian, and Blair, who had previously viewed Allison's presence in Chad's life with a mixture of wariness and hatred, Now she welcomed our growing family with open arms, adoring the babies with a zeal that touched my heart. "Look at you, all grown up and starting a family of your own," Killian had taunted one day as he cradled our daughter. "I never thought I'd see the day." Chad had chuckled, his arm wrapped securely around my waist. "Yeah, well, don't get too comfortable," he had said. "You three are next in line, you know." The accompanying laughing and frie

    Chapter 109: Closure and New LifeAvyaane pov Finally, the day came. As I held our baby daughter in my arms, the intensity of my love and appreciation threatened to overwhelm me. Her tiny, flawless features—the button nose, the delicate rosebud lips, the thick, dark lashes that fanned across her plump cheeks—filled me with a sensation of astonishment that I had never felt before. When I looked up, Chad's eyes were filled with tears of joy, his gaze riveted on the small infant cradled in my embrace. He reached out and carefully touched the curve of our daughter's cheek, his touch gentle and reverent. "She's... she's perfect, Avy," he said softly, his voice full with emotion. "Absolutely perfect." I felt a flood of pride and love wash over me, so I leaned into his touch, enjoying the warmth and comfort of his presence. After all of our hardships and tribulations to get to this point, finally having our family together and whole was more than I could have asked for. My heart swelled as

    Chapter 108 :HomecomingAvyaane pov "I'm glad you're here, Avy," he muttered. "We all are." I nodded and moved my gaze over to where Chad was standing, watching the reunion with a soft, almost reverent face. Our eyes connected, and I knew I'd made the proper decision. This was where I belonged, with him and his family—my family. As time passed, it became evident that this return was not without difficulties. Allison, Chad's on-and-off-again girlfriend, was not pleased with my homecoming and made no secret of it. "I can't believe you're just letting her waltz back in here, after everything she's done," she snapped one evening, her eyes narrowing with anger as she stared at Chad. Chad, to his credit: stayed calm, his voice steady as he responded. "Avyaane is my dear companion, Allison. She and our child belong here, alongside me. I will not turn my back on them again." Allison's lips tightened into an angry line, but she said nothing more and walked away with a huff. I watched her leav

    Chapter 107: Second Chance Avyaane pov The subtle click of the church door shutting behind me echoed in my ears, drowning out the quiet murmuring of the guests inside. My heart hammered in my chest as I stood there, grasping the fabric of my dress, torn between the life I had chosen and the one offered to me. Just moments earlier, I had been standing at the altar, ready to devote my life to Ethan, to start a new future with him. A future that was secure, straightforward, and free of the complexities that had plagued my past. A future that, while not what I had hoped for, seemed like it could bring me happiness. And now, in only a few heartbeats, That well planned future had been turned on its head. Because standing in front of me, with desperation and hope engraved into every line of his face, was the man I had loved with every fiber of my being - and still loved, if I was honest with myself. Chad. The sight of him storming through the church doors and yelling to halt the wedding ha

    # Chapter 106: Last-Minute RescueChad pov The road stretched out before Chad, a ribbon of tarmac cutting across the thick jungle. His hands held the steering wheel so firmly that his knuckles became white, and his gaze was locked on the horizon, as if he could will his destination into view with sheer willpower. Avyaane was getting married. The words rang in his thoughts like a constant drumbeat, matching the pounding of his heart. Married. To somebody else. To a human who will never completely understand her or offer her the life she deserves. Chad's jaw clinched as he imagined this unknown man - Ethan - holding Avyaane, petting her, and nurturing the child he should have had. Their child. He had no idea the youngster existed until only a few hours before.Guilt and regret rushed over him in waves. How had he let things get this far? How had he allowed Avyaane slip away, making her believe she had to face this alone? "I should have fought for her," Chad mumbled, barely audible abov

    Avyaane pov Blair's face was lighted by the gentle glow of the computer screen in his darkened room. His fingers paused over the keyboard, hesitating for a little minute before he began typing: *Hello, Avy. * *How do you feel? Is the small one causing you any problems? Blair pushed send and leaned back in his chair, running his hand through his unkempt hair. It was late (or early, depending on your perspective), but he knew Avyaane would be up. She reported in her last email that the baby had been really active at night. Sure enough, a response came in almost immediately: *Blair! I'm fine, just sleepy. Your niece or nephew appears to believe my ribs is a soccer ball. *How are things doing on your end? Blair's lips curved into a faint smile. Even through the impersonal medium of email, he could hear Avyaane's voice and imagine the sarcastic twist of her lips as she complained about the baby's antics. *Same old, same old," he texted back. *Logan is still on his redemption trip, Killian

    Chapter 103: New BeginningsAyvyaane povWillow Creek, a small town, was not at all like the pack areas I had left behind. Nestled in a valley surrounded by rolling hills, it was a community where everyone knew everything about everyone else, and outsiders were received with equal parts curiosity and distrust. It had been three months since I left the quadruplets and my previous life behind. Three months spent creating a new identity and learning to navigate the human world on my own. And after three months of watching my body transform, the small life inside me becomes stronger by the day. I had found work at the neighborhood bookstore, a little business that smelled of old paper and possibilities. The owner, a kind-hearted woman named Margaret, had taken one look at me: alone, pregnant, and plainly out of my element, and gave me not only a job, but also a home in the small apartment above the business. It wasn't a lot, but it was mine. A location where I could start over, where I c

    Avyaane povKillian's gaze became gentler. "I am aware that you have," he mentioned. "And perhaps you are correct. However, Avy, at what price? To what extent are you prepared to give up part of yourself in the hope that Logan might transform?"His words had a strong impact on me, leading me to face the questions I had been ignoring. To what extent was I ready to sacrifice? Was it right to make Killian wait while I sorted it out?"I confessed, barely whispering, "I'm not sure." "I simply understand that I must make an attempt."Killian nodded, his face adorned with a melancholic smile. "I comprehend," he responded. "And I'll be here, Avy. No matter what happens, I'll be here."As he pulled me into a hug, I felt a wave of gratitude and love wash over me. Whatever happened with Logan, I knew Killian would always be my rock.The next day, I sought out Chad. Of all the quadruplets, he was the one I knew least. He'd always been on the periphery, quiet and watchful. I found him in the train
