Ava Wilson POV:"Don't look at me like this. I'm not doing anything wrong here. I just overheard you and Austin fighting over that injured Omega who arrived yesterday. That's why I came here to see if you're okay. You came back all messed up from that room," he spoke, causing me to flinch. I know he's not being harsh, but it's harsh on me. I'm no longer feeling fine with the topic, remembering how Ariana was in Austin's arms while I was not.He didn't even follow me and went to fuck that bitchy Omega instead. "She's injured, and I'm behaving like a monster," is what he told me, isn't it?So, what's wrong now? Austin can sleep with her even though she's injured? But I can't let her go because she's his mate? Or maybe she's a better choice than me?"You can do it yourself, or do you need my help?" Leo interrupted my thoughts."I don't need your help. I can do it myself," I replied, knowing that the more he stays here, the more my weakness will show. How could I forget that he is the twin
Ava Wilson POV"He has his reasons, and you know he can't just abandon his mate. But I still believe he loves you more than you can imagine. So, think twice before taking a step that might lead you down an unwanted path," he said, his concern genuine."Are you not the one who loved him enough to give him this entire pack? Do you really think a girl can break the strong bond between you?" I asked, retorting back. I wasn't a fool who couldn't see through Leo's attempt to manipulate my thoughts. Just because Austin is his brother doesn't mean everything he's doing with me is right."I'm not supporting anything, but as Beta, it's my duty to offer the right advice. He's the Alpha, and his decisions are final. You can't simply defy them, even Luna. So, think before going against him," he warned, standing up from the bed."You better leave. I'll handle this on my own. If anyone needs a lesson, it's your brother, and I'll make sure he learns not to mess with me," I spat my words at him. He wal
Ava Wilson POV"Wake up, Ava," a voice called out, piercing through the haze of sleep that enveloped me. Reluctantly, I tried to open my heavy eyelids, blinking repeatedly as my vision slowly cleared. It didn't do much to alleviate my exhaustion; if anything, I craved more sleep, an escape from the harsh reality.Why couldn't I just stay asleep forever?"Ava, wake up. We need to talk," Austin's voice persisted, drawing me further from my slumber. I rubbed my eyes, trying to make sense of what was happening. Was it morning already? How much time had I been sleeping?I sighed, realising I was back in the real world, away from the dreamy oblivion I wished for. Austin stood in front of me, looking refreshed and full of energy. Seeing him brought back the memories of what happened and how I ended up falling asleep. Morning had arrived."I need to talk to you," he said with a smile, but it felt hollow. If this were any other day, I would melt in his presence, basking in the warmth he emanate
Ava Wilson POV"Why do you need to bring her up? It's about you and me right now. Can you please set her aside? She doesn't belong in this conversation. So why not drop the topic instead of making yourself feel worse?" I pleaded, trying to make Austin understand. His voice clearly revealed his frustration with me constantly talking about that woman.Doesn't he feel the disgust I experienced after he had his night with her, without any regard for my feelings? The pain she caused me, making me feel repulsed by my own body. How can I feel it on my skin, yet he remains unconcerned?Either he is preoccupied with that Omega, or he simply doesn't want to answer me. Perhaps he considers it beneath him to respond to a mere Luna like me, as it would hurt his ego."Okay then, what about the marks on your neck? Did she scratch you or make you cry because of something I said to your precious Omega?" As the words left my mouth, Austin's grip on my cheeks tightened. I could sense he wanted to break m
Ava Wilson POV"Are you sure?" Austin asked, his words laced with a chilling undertone that sent shivers down my spine. He wasn't just inquiring; he was deliberately trying to intimidate me."I am sure, Austin. What exactly are you planning to announce?" I challenged, folding my arms and narrowing my eyes, a clear display of my defiance.It's true that when it comes to loving him, I'm as weak as a kitten, but I'm not foolish enough to accept this situation without question. If he wants to keep Ariana, he must understand the boundaries. She can never command the same level of respect as me, nor will she ever hold the esteem of my pack."She is not my mistress!" Austin's voice boomed with anger, his face turning red as he vented his frustration. But hey, I just called it like I saw it. Who's the one trying to make me feel like a mistress in my own marriage?"Then what is she, Austin? I'd love to know how you define this relationship," I retorted, fully aware of my own worth. She's coming
Ava Wilson POV"Tell me, Luna, how can I assist you?" Ariana inquired, her face filled with genuine concern. However, I completely disregarded her expression."I want you to leave this place," I replied, attempting to maintain a calm tone while anxiety gripped my throat, making it difficult to speak any more than necessary."But..." Ariana began to protest."I don't care who you are, and I don't give a damn that you're his mate. But you won't be able to snatch my man away from me," I interrupted, glaring at her while crossing my arms to assert my dominance. She simply cannot have my man, and that's all there is to it."Austin mentioned that he wants to mark me. He said we can all live together. I swear, Luna, I have no intention of taking your place. I am not capable of doing something like that. He is my mate, and all I need is him. I don't need anything more," Ariana's voice quivered as tears streamed down her cheeks, as if I were bullying her, even though I wasn't."Oh, so you're no
Ava Wilson POV:"Where are you, Ava?!" The sudden scream of my name startled me as I emerged from the bathroom, fully dressed and ready. I turned my gaze towards the source of the voice, sensing that something was amiss."You bitch!" Austin's enraged voice reached my ears as he lunged towards me, grabbing my throat and leaving me in shock. I couldn't fathom what had just happened."Why, Austin? What are you doing?" I managed to gasp out, struggling for breath under his tight grip. Confusion and pain filled my mind as I desperately tried to remove his hand from my throat."Why indeed? I'm trying to teach you a lesson, you bitch. Can't you see? I tried my best to make you understand with love," He growled, his hold on my throat tightening further, robbing me of oxygen. I clutched his hand, desperately attempting to free myself."I don't understand, Austin," I pleaded, my voice breathless from his assault. I couldn't comprehend the sudden aggression towards me. "Why won't you believe me?
Ava Wilson POV:I feel numb, nothing more. He may be happy, but this embrace burns my entire body with pain. I'm consumed by misery and I don't even know how to react.Here I thought I would fight for my pack and everything we have. Yet, seeing him now, I don't know what comes over me. I find myself ready to accept it.He makes it clear who is more important to him, leaving me with nothing to fight for. I don't even matter."I love you, Ava," Austin breaks the hug and kisses my forehead with a smile. His genuine happiness with my decision is evident. He can't even see my tears and broken state."It's fine," I reply emotionlessly, tears continuing to stream down my face, making me feel utterly useless."I won't let you down, Ava. Believe me, you matter to me more than anyone," he reassures me.His words feel like salt sprinkled on fresh wounds. They lack sincerity. I can feel the absence of truth in them. His actions speak louder than his words."I have some work to do. Take care," he s
Ava Wilson POVHis scent. His warmth. Rubbing against me in all the wrong ways. The way he asks questions I can’t answer.And no matter how many lies he’s already caught.“I don't need to know you, Ava. You are my mate. That means the Moon Goddess blessed me with you—and I can get to know you slowly.”Rough words. But they tingle more than they should.I can’t tell him the truth—that I was reborn. That Austin ruined everything last time.“Chester, you do know you’re a vampire, right?” I need to change the subject.He doesn't move back. Still standing too close. “Yes. That too, a king. What kind of question is this, Amore?”“I’m a werewolf. I know that doesn’t matter to you—that I haven’t gotten my wolf yet. But I’m the Alpha’s daughter. My father won’t accept me having a vampire mate. Even if my wolf does identify you.”No lie in that. Our pack’s relationship with vampires is strained at best.Even with the peace treaty at this school—even sitting here in the canteen, side by side—t
Chester POVAva stared at me, wide-eyed, as if she might faint any second. She really was something.Hadn’t she just been talking about me a moment ago? Being a vampire had its perks. Our hearing was sharper than any other being’s—and I was a vampire king. Mine was sharper than most.Mark grunted in surprise as I dragged a chair over and slid it beside Ava’s. She stiffened, her hands clenching the sides of her seat.“Embo’s outside,” I said, flicking a glance at Mark. Always tailing Embo like a shadow. I needed him gone—needed time alone with Ava. There were things we had to discuss. Things about that motherfucker Austin. Who he really was—and why he’d been so hell-bent that day.Mark hesitated, glancing between us.“How did you hear us?” asked the girl next to Ava. Amelia, if I remembered right.I leaned back lazily, smirking. “From my ears. You both can leave. I need to talk with my mate.”“She doesn't have a wolf,” Mark snapped. “You can’t just claim her.”His words barely register
Ava Wilson POVMy body shivered, no matter how hard I tried to stay calm. But how could I?Chester’s face haunted me all week—the way he kissed me, the way he made me come. I couldn’t shut it off.My mind kept replaying it again and again.Heat crept up the back of my neck. “Can you shut up? We’re in the middle of the hall, and this is what you’re talking about?” I kept my voice low.“You’re the Alpha’s daughter—why are you so scared?” He grinned, like it was some kind of joke.I shook my head and sighed. “Don’t you have classes?”“I do. Actually, we all have the same class—but it’s cancelled. Teacher’s on leave.”Amelia and I exchanged a look. We’d come all the way here, and the first class wasn’t even happening.“Why the sour mood? We can hang in the canteen—it’s not the end of the world. You usually hated classes anyway. Always skipped them,” Mark said.I didn’t know if he was right or not. Having no memories after being reborn wasn’t exactly easy. But at least I got another chance
Ava Wilson POV "It's been a week you've been resting. How about starting school today?" Mom brushed her hand through my hair, smiling gently. "I already talked to the administration about your memory loss. They’re fine with it. I think you should catch up with everything." I smiled. I was truly enjoying my life. Everything finally felt in place—days passing peacefully, my world steady and whole. Austin... my past... everything I'd lost before—I was making up for it, piece by piece. Having my parents beside me, not missing a single moment, made life so much better. Now, as Mom suggested school, I couldn't help but hesitate. Because it meant seeing Austin’s face again. "Amelia’s missing school because of you," Mom added, her voice light but teasing. "Tomorrow’s her birthday." How could I forget? Amelia would never complain. She always acted more like a maid than a sister, no matter how hard I tried to treat her like family. But it was her eighteenth birthday.
Ava Wilson POV I turned and met Mark’s eyes. He stood there with his arms crossed, suspicion carved into his expression. That look was becoming all too familiar, and I wasn’t sure if I was annoyed or just exhausted by it. Mark always had a way of getting under my skin. We hadn’t known each other long, but somehow, he’d mastered the art of testing my patience. “Why do you look so shocked?” His tone sounded casual, but the intensity in his gaze sent a knot twisting in my stomach. I folded my arms, exhaling slowly. “It’s not shock, Mark. It’s irritation. You’re just… inconvenient.” His lips twitched, forming a smirk that managed to look both amused and calculating. “Inconvenient? That’s one way to put it. Especially for someone mated to the vampire king.” His voice dropped, laden with meaning. I froze, keeping my expression carefully neutral, though his words scraped against my composure. *What does he know?* “Rumors don’t mean anything,” I snapped, narrowing my eyes. “Unl
Ava Wilson POVI leaped in surprise at the sudden deep voice that shook me to my core. My eyes fell upon the person who had appeared out of nowhere, his intense blue eyes staring at us as if he could tear Austin apart and then turn to me. The intensity of his gaze sent shivers down my spine, and I knew this encounter wouldn't end well."I said leave her, you..." He cut Austin off, pulling him away and gripping my wrist firmly, scaring me even more. His impact was so strong that I couldn't help but tremble in fear.Things would not go well if he continued like this. Austin tried to reason with him, matching Chester's gaze, but he was much shorter and looked like a kid in front of the bulky Chester.Chester growled with anger, and it startled me. He growled like a vampire, which I couldn't deny was kind of sexy and embarrassing because it turned me on.Amelia looked around, making me realise that everyone was watching us, which was not good. My parents weren't present, but they would he
Ava Wilson POVAs I lay on the bed, a sudden voice reached my ears, and there was my mom, entering the room."You're feeling fine, right?" she asked, her concern palpable.Why did she come asking all of a sudden? Could she have found out about the mischief Mark and I pulled, and did Amelia spill the beans to her?It doesn't seem like that's the case, as Amelia seems like someone who knows how to keep mysteries to herself.Yet, it's hard to believe that mom is just stressed. I tried to shield myself with the blanket, not wanting to reveal my injuries to her.Hidden beneath the blanket, my heart raced with mixed emotions. I didn't want my mom to worry about me, but at the same time, it felt comforting to have her here, showing genuine concern."I'm okay, Mom," I replied, trying my best to sound reassuring. "Just a little tired, that's all."She came closer and sat beside me on the bed, her warm hand gently brushing a strand of hair away from my face. "You can tell me anything, you know.
Ava Wilson POVMark's shout jolted me as he forcefully pulled Chester's hand away from mine, leaving me stunned. My gaze fixated on Chester, who seemed ready to drain the life out of Mark, an intent to kill lurking in his eyes without a single drop of bloodshed.I turned to Amelia, who appeared calm on the outside but her face betrayed the stress she must be feeling. I understood her position, considering how late it was for me to be out, and I was relieved that I didn't act impulsively with Chester in the heat of the moment. That could have led to mating and complications, potentially distracting me from seeking revenge against Austin and his partners in crime.Trying to ease Mark's concern, I spoke calmly, "Relax, I'm still fine, you can see, right?"I couldn't fathom how he could think I harmed myself when he was the reason I entered that damn room and ended up entangled with Chester. It was quite a dramatic twist that I couldn't help but appreciate. Mark wanted his mate, but for t
Ava Wilson POVI couldn't believe it when he suddenly cursed like that, catching me completely off guard in the midst of our passionate kiss. My mind raced, trying to make sense of what had just happened, but the anger bubbling inside him was evident, threatening to erupt at any moment.My eyes narrowed as I searched for the cause of his sudden outburst, hoping to understand the reason behind his unexpected behaviour."We need to get out of here," Chester spoke urgently, pulling me up with his firm grip, and I found myself standing, supported by his forearm.The shock I felt was beyond words. Why would he want us to leave now, especially when things were so intense between us? It was all so messed up, and I struggled to wrap my head around it."What happened?" I asked, desperately trying to comprehend why he'd bring up leaving in the midst of such a passionate moment, for goodness' sake."Your friend is waiting, and Kevin asked me to come out too," he explained, straightening his clot
