"Everyone knew she was his." ~ Ava and Lucas have been best friends since Lucas saw Ava at the playground when she was 4 years old. She is innocent and shy where as Lucas is more intimidating to everyone other than Ava. Despite this, they do everything together. Where ever one went, the other followed. Never going more than a day without seeing each other, it's safe to say they were inseparable. Now at 16, Ava is forced to spend a year in public school after being home-schooled all her life. How is Lucas going to react with all the new people she is going to meet, especially being so possessive over Ava. However, even though they are best friends, Lucas is keeping a secret from Ava. A big one. Lucas is a werewolf. And Ava is his mate.

Having no interest in celebrating Halloween, he let his little Ava choose his costume and organise how they'd be celebrating the holiday. He remember how her blue eyes lit up with excitement as she rambled about the different couple costume ideas she had and wrote them all down in her joker notebook. Lucas knew he couldn't deny her the simple happiness so he reluctantly became her doll to dress up however she wanted. Unfortunately, he did not expect her to dress him up in his usual all black outfit covered by a red hood with a basket of mini muffins. He was little red riding hood. And he was not happy. "It'll be fun, she said. I'll love you forever, she said." He mocked in an imitation of Ava and grumbled under his breath, "yeah you better love me forever after this." "Woah. Look at you!" Ryan said when he reached the kitchen. "What're you suppos
"Yes but you're goingto be ok." Lucas said through gritted teeth and began to strip himselfdown to his boxers. "I'm going to take your clothes off, ok baby girl?Skin on skin contact will help with the pain. We don't have to do anything butI'm staying with you." He assured her.She gave him a weak nod and wrapped her handsaround his neck and weaving her nimble fingers through hair, attempting to pullhim down to her. He gave her a quick kiss and then without hesitation, shed Avaof her shirt and jeans, leaving her in a pair of, to his surprise, dark redlace bra and thong.Oh Moon Goddess give me strength.Knowing he didn't want anyone to disturb them andwalk into the room, especially any males, he ran over to lock the door and thenscooped Ava into his arms. He made sure his scent surround her as hispossessiveness was at an all time high. He wanted her to forget anyone elseexisted.Her screams subsided when their limbs wereintertwined with each other's. Lucas' arms enveloped
"WHAT do you call acow that eats your grass?"Lucas stifled a groan as he lost his train ofthought again. His mate was continuously thinking of one terrible joke afterthe other, aiming to make him laugh. He hadn't been concentrating on schoolwork recently anyway because he had been preparing for the Luna ceremony thatwas tomorrow. So, he didn't need to be distracted with lame jokes. He alsodidn't want Ava to fail her exams if she wasn't paying attention."Listen to the teacher Ava." He scoldedher."WRONG! The answer was lawn moo-er. LawnMOO-er! Are you laughing? Are people looking at you weird?" She laughedevilly through the mind link."Ava l- "She interrupted him by saying, "now this one!Why did the cat go to Minnesota?"He decided to humour her and finally asked,"why?""To get a mini soda!" When he didn'trespond for a few long seconds, she sighed exasperatedly. "It's not asfunny with our accent. Here, I'll say it again in an American one so pretendyou don't know the a
A day later, Ava wasaddicted to Chamomile tea. It was definitely helping her control her emotionsso with that, she felt it was a tiny little bit easier to lie to Lucas. Shedidn't want to but there was no other option.She told him that she was going shopping withSabrina after school but in actual fact, her father was taking her to thepsychiatric hospital to visit her mother. When the idea was brought up to hermate, he instantly said it was a bad idea. He thought she could get hurt bothphysically and emotionally from the visit. Apparently there was no good outcome.But, Ava knew it would provide some closure and ifher mother could get better and become the loving mother she had alwaysimagined, it would be worth it."Are you nervous?" Her father asked herwith his hands gripping the steering wheel tightly. He was visibly sweating alittle as he strained a smile in her direction.She shrugged, feigning a calm composure but on theinside she was the exact opposite. "Kind of. You?
"HE hates me!"She wailed hopelessly to Sabrina.A little part of her felt guilty for forcing herfriend to endure her endless babbling but the larger part of her didn't reallycare about anything other than the misery she was feeling. Ava had spent therest of the day wallowing in self pity as she would continually cry out thather mate didn't love her, only to have Sabrina disagree every time in anattempt to console her.But no matter what she said, Ava wouldn't believea word until she had her Lucas cuddling with her like he was supposed to do.She internally pouted at the fact that he wasn't doing his job."I'm sure he doesn't." Sabrina repeatedfor the thousandth time. "He's absolutely obsessed with you. It'ssickening really."She peered up at her with a distressed look."Then how come he hasn't come back yet?" It was nearing midnight andhe hadn't even returned any of her calls or messages. She was worried about himand nobody else seemed to know where he went when she mind li
"Lucas. Let go of him!Please." Hearing the fear in her voice broke him out of whatever trance hewas in. Lucas turned around to wrap his arms around Ava and she hugged him backjust as tightly. His whole body was shaking with the urge to shift and show theweak wolf who was Alpha. He nuzzled his head her neck, breathing in her mangoscent with her soft hair caressing his cheek. He needed to hold his mate - makesure she was there. That she was with him and she wasn't leaving him.As Ava rubbed her hand soothingly up and down hisback, he repeated mumbled, "you're mine. All mine. Not his. Mine. Mygirlfriend. My mate. Mine to love." He held her close to him, kissing themark on her neck with his eyes squeezed shut."Argh. Geez that hurt." Lucas heard theinjured Edward say but he didn't stop from muttering his words, as if he wasconvincing himself, telling himself they were true and that there wasn't abetter person for her. That she belonged to him because he only belonged to her."
WITH the night spent awayuntil the early hours in the morning in their wolf forms, Lucas immediatelyfell into a deep sleep as soon as his back hit the bed. He faintly rememberedhis little Ava climbing underneath his arm and snuggling into his chest before,she too, fell asleep.As he slowly regained consciousness, he felt eyesboring into his skin. His arm covered his mate's waist while the top of herbody leaned on his torso. He could tell she was close to his face from thesmall puffs of air that hit his skin every time she breathed.He made sure not to make any sudden movements thatwould let her know he was awake because he was curious as to what she was goingto do. He felt Ava's small fingertip lightly press onto his eyebrow, tracing itbefore moving onto the other one. He stayed still whilst she ran her fingerdown the ridge of his nose and booped it, eliciting a giggle out of her. Lucas suppressed his laughter at his weird mate'sactions, subconsciously tightening his grip
She jumped and looked ather mate. Feeling extremely happy he was there, she tried to run to him, onlyto trip over her own paws. As Lucas crouched beside her, she noticed how muchsmaller she was compared to when she was a human. Yapping happily, she jumpedup and down, licking his face as he chuckled."You're adorable. Look." He showed herhis phone with a picture of a beautiful blonde wolf. Cocking her head to theside, she analysed every inch of it. It was a small thing. It looked more likea puppy than a wolf. This is me? She rested her head on the grass with a huff.Ava had expected to be big and menacing like her Alpha mate. Not a tiny pup."Can you hear me?"She jumped again, startled at the voice in herhead that sounded a lot like Lucas. Nuzzling her head into his leg, shewhimpered and whined in fear that she was going crazy."Don't be afraid. It's just me. You can nowmind-link me because you've got powers." Lucas reassured her aloud."Hi?" She asked hesitantly in her head
EVERY part of her body wasin pain. Her muscles ached, making her feel like she had ran a marathon whenshe hadn't even moved from her bed since coming home from their short holiday.Her vomiting had subsided but she felt hot and cold at the same time, whileextremely uncomfortable in every position she lay. Ava squirmed on the bed,bitting her lip to stop from screaming out in pain and disturbing everyone inthe pack house.Her eyes were shut tightly with tears spilling outof them. She felt Lucas pull her, now, bleeding lip from her mouth, gently withhis thumb. Whimpering, she reached out for his hand and put it to her face,wanting to feel the tingles he gives her. She wanted to feel something otherthan pain."I'm sorry this is happening to you."His voice broke as he kissed her temple. "I'm so so sorry, baby."The door opened and heels clicked on the floor,followed quickly by someone clearing their throat. "Alpha." Someone,a woman, said."Please tell me what's wrong with her."
Prologue Part OneLUCAS couldn't be bothered with the rest of the day. It had been horrible, starting off with losing his school backpack so he was late, and then Miss Jill had the nerve to put him in detention! He ended up missing the first half of lunch meaning there was no apple crumble left for him. That was his favourite! And to top it all off, some boy peed their pants in class and it was really hot so it stank up the classroom.All he wanted to do was go home and eat some of Miss Lillian's homemade cookies but she told him to go and get some fresh air. "You spend too much time in doors Lucas." The maid had said. She had bribed him with cookies to eat for when he returned home so he agreed to go to the park.The heat was sweltering so the streets were packed with kids. He assumed the park would be too so he took his time with the usually short walk. Maybe Miss Lillian would let him have ice cream when he gets home too.For human children, it would probably be dangerous to have a
