AVA:

"We shouldn't be fighting when we are looking for a baby, should we? I come in peace and you must take my word for it." Clara said and straightened her face, clothes, and appearance.

I swallowed hard, trying hard to smile. Since she didn't want to fight, there was no need to instigate it even though she showed by all means that she was meaning to insult me.

"We've been fighting ever since. That's one thing for sure. If you're not here to fight, then what are you hear to do? Say what you want, Damien isn't here anymore." My fave turned mean as I took a deep breath.

I had said my words through gritted teeth. With what I had gone through at the hands of Damien's mother, I couldn't say less.

Little wonder they say that apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Clara was wicked and so was her son.

My last words must have thrown away her facade for the next minute she turned to face me before pointing her fingers at me.

"You! You think you've got me right there, don't you? You've proved t

    ALPHA KING LEO:I had set up a meeting with Ava and now was sitting at a table in a restaurant, patiently waiting for her.Ava. The mere mention of her name rings a bell in my head. It reminds me of the one woman I want to take responsibility for and I want to make sure that she was alright.I don't know exactly why I am helping her, but what I do know is that it gave me peace to be on her side."Leo." Ethan, my beta called and I whipped my head to the side to look at him. He had called me by my first name because I had told him not to title me when no one was around."How much longer are we going to wait for this lady? Is this even a date?" Ethan scoffed and I folded my arms across my chest while facing the other side.Lucky him, he was the only one I wasn't too grumpy with. If it were any other person who said what he had just said, they would have had their heads rolling on the floor by then.Ethan knew that whatever he did, I wasn't going to kill him, so sometimes he'd just use th

    AVA:I was really in deep trouble. If it got to Damien that I was seen with Alpha Leo, then he'd rain down hellfire on me. He'd torment me till I regretted it.My lips quivered and my legs went wobbly like jelly as my heartbeat increased by a million pounds. I wasn't sure I could walk anymore.Was it all over? Have I been caught for real?"You. You should take care of how you drink around here. Someone take her home." Leo said when I was still trying to cover my face with my hair."Let's go. He's my chief butler. He's happened to serve us wine a couple of times, so he recognized us." Leo said and I was forced to take a look."But he sounded just like a woman. How come he has such a soft voice..." I was saying when Alpha Leo applied pressure to the point where he was holding my hand and quickened his steps and continued dragging me away.******"We're here," I stated, just to clear the heavy silence that clogged the atmosphere.Leo and I were seated on a rock overlooking the river.I s

    AUTHOR'S POVPreparation was the key to success as they said and Ava was determined to abide by that rule as she ransacked her entire closure for what to wear to the meeting with Alpha Leo.Flipping her hair backward, she began arranging her things back to its rightful place. It wasn't as if she didn't have enough clothes for even that single occasion. The problem was that she wanted to look perfect and she wondered why.Usually, she'd go to these events with a heavy makeover and an indifferent look but right now, here she was, frustrated that she had been searching for the right clothes for ages."Why do I just want to look perfect? That dress can do but I...""Or could it be because you want to look perfect for him?" Leila, Ava's wolf whined within her and she wrinkled her nose in disgust.By "him" did Leila in any way mean Damien?"Thoughtless human. Come on, I meant Leo. You can remember what happened last night." Leila, Ava's wolf replied. She was even busy jollying around."Oh

The treaty is tomorrow and I don't want to raise any suspicions."Damien asked in a hushed but forceful tone as his eyes desperately demanded an answer from Audrey.They were in the garden of his abode and he couldn't afford to leave any room for mistakes."Don't you blame me here 'cause I don't know why things are falling apart but I'm the only one to notice.""Things are falling apart. What do you mean by that?"Audrey sucked in a deep breath and heaved it out before returning, "It's about Ava.""Ava. What about her?" Damien asked even before Audrey could finish."You need to do something. I think Ava is suspecting that we are together. First I have to ask, when last did you touch your wife?""I can't remember.

    AVA:No one, not even the devil knoweth the intention of man...Perhaps, that saying was going to be manifested today.The cool evening breeze blew and I slightly parted my lips because my lungs begged for air.I was suffocating because of a certain presence around me.For the first time in months since my rebirth, Damiem was treating me right. He made me wear a new set of clothes and marching Luna shoes. I almost feel honored if not for the irony of the situation. Such a laugh. We even wore matching outfits.Right now, Damien has his hands encircled around my waist as he leads our way into the Blood Crescent pack. When we entered Alpha Leo's guest place, we were ushered into a decorated room.I'm sure Damien was well impressed when he whispered to me, "This is a nice pack." I whispered back, "Yes it is." He gave my hand a slight squeeze and a reassuring smile flashed across his face.Someone cleared their throat and I was forced to look up only to see Alpha Leo. Just as expected. W

    AUTHOR'S POV:Ava had no idea what happened to her during the minutes she passed out but when she woke up, she couldn't see Damien or anyone by her side.She gasped and jolted up in a frenzy.Did the meeting with Alpha King Leo go on without her?Ava raised her hands to touch her face, her entire body now panicky.This was the reason she risked her life, the reason she took those bloody painkillers she had gotten from the human side. It was just to end the meeting and now it was going on without her?Ava slowly shook her head sideways. No.A tear was about to escape her eyelids when the door to the room she was in, creaked open and Damien walked in.As he menacingly walked toward Ava with a disapproving frown etched out on his, she found it hard to focus in his direction.Did he have it all figured out? Did he already fix the problem and was now back to show her the way to hell just like he used to?The Opioid plus one other herbal medicine she took was supposed to make her pass out f

    AVA:I gasped at the sight before me when I stepped out out of the convenience. Damien was on the floor, looking like someone who was hit by something.Oddly enough, seeing him that way brought me satisfaction.Before I could move, I heard someone step into the place. I looked up and. it was Alpha Leo."I'm sorry. I had to do that or you would have been in really great danger. It appears your Alpha really cares much about that pack."I had an awkward feeling as I stared at him, probably because it wasn't normal for me to stare at someone hurting my mate and still support them."But still, you shouldn't have done that. You would have raised suspicions this way and everyone would know and think something was happening." I said, flipping my hair behind my neck.I watched as his eyes softened when he looked deep into my eyes."No one would know I knocked him out unless you tell them. You see, I left earlier and no one would suspect me okay? Listen, I just wanted you to be safe. I don't kn

    AUTHOR'S POV:Leo got out of the car and he headed straight in a particular direction. Some of the men who were with Leo were already Safari's ex-men before they got hired by Discord, so they easily knew the hideout and the place where Safari's captives were kept.Leo gave an express command. "Seize the keys and free everyone." After entering the place, Leo began looking for Ethan and Billie. He tried using their scents to catch up with them but it their scents only lingered in the atmosphere. Wherever their, scents led, he went there but he would not see them.Worried, he began looking for them. Apart from. The stench of dead rotting bodies also filled the place and he was forced to cover his nose.Some people had been chained for a long time here and some were even chained to their deaths.Leo dialed a number as his right hand held it to his right ear."Drake, I think you need to contact the police on this one.

    AUTHOR'S POV:"Hello. Who the fuck are you?" Safari asked, reminding himself that he was the indomitable guy who had been fearless since age ten."I am Leonard and you must be Safari." Leo hoped that he was right because this same number was the last Discord answered."Listen to me," Safari bellowed, his voice sounded threatening."I need you to release the flash drive, hand it over to Discord, or else..."Safari drawled."Or what?""I kill the werewolves. I'll eliminate your stupid kind!" He yelled, trying to scare Leo."Why don't you hold on because I have a present for you?" Leo grinned smugly.Safari's face twisted in anger, his anger simmering below the surface, as he asked, "What present, what present you fu -" before he could complete his sentence, the line had already gone dead."That bastard!" Safari growled while standing up to his feet and downing the glass of alcohol in his hand."Who does that bastard think he is, huh?" Safari was angry that Leo had cut the call on him.A

    CHAPTER 183AUTHOR'S POV:30 minutes earlier...Thirty minutes earlier, Discord had just shot a gun at Leo but he successfully dodged.This had angered Leo so much because he had not intended to harm Discord. He had planned to stay through to the word of his bargain. If Discord made them release his friends he would hand over the flash drive as well as clean up the mess created by the media.Leo frowned hard. He hated the fact that Discord had taken him for a fool just now this made him remember what he had done to Ava. Discord had shot Ava with the gun containing wolfsbane poison and now, he was doing this. Everything just kept aggravating the situation.Something snapped in Leo and his eyes changed color.He collected the gun from him in a fit of rage and watched him collapse to the floor."If wolfsbane is good, why don't you get your dose of it." Leo looked around at Discord's men and they only appeared feeble to him. He could finish them all in seconds but he only wanted to do thi

He was simply in a dilemma as to what to do with the information Discord had just passed across.The problem was not in sending armed men to the place. The problem was simply the fact that those bastards could expose him too if he made the wrong move. One wrong move and everything he had worked for as a human trafficker, would just like a castle built in the air, crumble like a pack of sand.Who was going to save him now? He pondered and turned his wrist from time to time to check the time. Yet, time was passing and nothing was coming to his muscled mind.Another thought also crossed his mind. Could he afford to bear the loss that came with losing an entire day's work which didn't begin that night?Oftentimes, he'd always strategize and restrategize before he got the number of people he needed. Just when he thought he would actualize the number and finally pay for

    CHAPTER 181AUTHOR'S POV:"Anything? By anything, do you mean anything?" Leo asked him again just so he could be sure."Don't be a dumbass, I've got no time on my hands. Spit out" Discord turned his wrist to check his wristwatch."In exchange for that flash drive, I need you to convince Safari to release everyone he held captive on the 30th of last month. In addition to doing that, I'll make sure to retrieve the news and make a public announcement that it was a fake mix-up. That would be a valid argument. Not only will you be free. Your family will be able to trust in you again."It was a tempting offer and Leo expected Discord to take the bait. After all, he had learned that each member of the Grandmasters was proportionally selfishUnexpectedly, Discird was fast to recognize the trick Leo was trying to play. The trick was to set him up with the rest of the Grandmasters!'Does this bastard want to set me up?' Discord asked in his mind. He couldn't believe that Leo took him for a fool

Their guns and other ammunition stood in front of them, scaring others and onlookers away.Discord marched in front as their leader. Hen entered the place and went to sit on one of the king-sized seats he saw in the place.Pomposity and pride were usually the first weapons he used to surrender his enemies when the need arose. Many a time, when his opponents saw his heavy firearms and squad, they would usually surrender without him firing a single shot. But was he going to win in this mission?"I'm fucking speaking to everyone in this place. There's no need to hide. Come out and let's fight. You know how to run your goddamn mouths to the news but you can't fight, is that it? Hmm?" Using a lighter, Discord lit up a pipe and began smoking.Meanwhile...Drake noiselessly found his way to where Leo was. "Do you think we should call the police? There's a shortage of our men from t

    CHAPTER 179AVA'S POV:Drake and other Equators had suggested the exposing of the illegal activities done by Discord stored in that flash drive. The Flash drive also contained the illegal activities done by the notorious Safari and Red Saint's gang respectively.I wonder why Discord kept such a record when he appeared to be discreet enough. Perhaps, he wanted to use it to his advantage in the future.Of course, we had done as planned but we only revealed Discord's misdeed, meaning that we were putting them in a great apprehension of harm to their reputation. Discord was already in danger but as soon as the rest of the group knew about this, they would come running to us in order to cover the truth. The Equators had a media house that they operated discreetly, but even I knew that those miscreants would blow the cover and find us in no time.Picking up a remote, I switched to Channel News.

He stayed to watch the definition of true love as it wowed him speechless.Leo had given his blood and Ava was halfway through the recovery process but he never left her for even an hour to go attend to his needs. His tired eyes were always on her as though she would die if she shut his eyes.Once or twice, Ava had protested, telling him to rest in the night and Leo had pretended to sleep and when he was sure that Ava had slept off, he awoke and continued keeping watch over her."I...I came with your breakfast but I haven't moved from here ever since then.

What could that be that could destroy those scrawny creatures that wouldn't just die?Safari watched Discord's lips as they moved to make a speech...Discord couldn't help but make a flashback of what he had said to Safari. He had given a full lecture on how to bring an end to these creatures with the things he had discovered."You could kill them with wolfsbane. Wolfsbane is made from the plant aconitum. The patients allegedly diagnosed with wolfsbane poisoning, usually have a bitter taste in their mouths, followed by numbness and tingling in their faces and bodies, extreme nausea and vomiting, and cardiac arrhythmias and hypotension.
