AVA:I have been looking for an opportunity to reject Damien. Not just any opportunity but a pain-filled one.My visions aren't acting up anymore or I would have known the perfect time to do what I've always wanted to do.When I remembered what Billie had told me to do for her, I shrugged and sighed softly. I had to do what I had already promised and I wasn't going to be a killjoy for her.Well, the fact that my life wasn't all that glamorous didn't mean that I would let it be for others. Billie was with a good man and she deserved to be happy.So I walked up to Alpha Leo He was busy examining some papers in front of him."My love, what are you doing here?" Leo was surprised to see me. Perhaps, he thought that I was going to take long before Damien would let me go out of the pack.Well, if I am to confess, I had left Blue Crest pack to come here, through my means. Left to Damien, I was going nowhere because I had wreaked enough havoc."I'm here because I wanted to come see you," I sa
AUTHOR'S POV:The moment Ava left Diana, tears slid down her cheeks. Although Diana felt consoled, she felt like Ava didn't really understand her.Those encouraging words hit really good and hard, but right now, she was overthinking everything.Diana thought that maybe, her boyfriend, one of the pack warriors might have left her alone because she wasn't as rich as the other woman.Diana had this conviction in her heart that her doting boyfriend jilting her, had something to do with this class or calibre thing, whatever it was called.Diana was so sure he loved her but perhaps, when he found someone who was better, he chose the better. Once the mind found something better, it didn't usually rest till it had possessed it.Diana walked back and forth, her hands to her chin. She was thinking of how to get rich. If only she was rich, her boyfriend wouldn't have left her for someone apparently better.Diana thought of everything, and there was nothing that could make her rich. She couldn't
AVA:I wanted so much to listen and hear the excuse Audrey had to give for killing the child of another when she had none. Wa it going to be reasonable. Was it going to justify her actions or it was plain going to deny the assumption that she killed Ariana?"It wasn't really in the night but ay the wee hours of the morning. LI was drunk and not in my right senses. I could remember trying to catch her from falling right off that height but she fell before I could grab her. I had rushed down below in that drunken state but then she was already dead. As I tried to shake her to see if there was still any sign of life in her, her blood stained my clothes. I was too scared to say anything to anyone, and I didn't want to be blamed for Aria's death, so I went home immediately after. On the afternoon of that day, her death was reported and you arrived on that noon." Audrey said, and when she was done talking, she was breathing in deeply, as though trying to fill her lungs with more oxygen to
ALPHA KING LEO:The moment I saw Ava coming towards me with tears in her eyes and items of luggage in her hands, I knew she had made the big decision to leave Damien. It hadn't been easy at all.From the day I saw that cut on her hand since the first time, it hadn't been easy for me too. It took so much willpower to keep my raging heart, and Tiger, my inner wolf calm. Immediately she saw me, she ran towards me and I spread out my hands to welcome her in a smoldering hug. She ran into my arms and I carried her up, hugging her with every emotion in me.Ava was a strong woman who had gone through a lot and a lot had been done against her. I thank goodness that she made it alive. Each day, I was more than worried that Damien would abuse her to death or worse still, make her hate good men like me."You did it. You're one brave woman I love and admire. No one's gonna hurt you anymore. No, I won't let anyone hurt you.""I'm glad I'm here in your arms. This is the place I've ever wanted to b
AVA:I was going to walk the whole place without a red face and an embarrassing smile because Leo and I had kissed in front of his mother. Crazy right?I have no idea why Leo isn't feeling the same way as me and I envy that he is walking with his head held up high.Was I the only one being coy?The moment we entered a room in Leo's house he turned me around and made me have my back to the door."I want you to know that I've been waiting for this moment all my life. The moment I'll have to kiss all your breath away." His hot breath fanned my neck as he whispered, sending tingles down my belly. He delved his tongue deep into my mouth and my legs almost turned to jelly from how tenderly he held me. As we kissed his hands roamed my body. Moving from my waist to other parts of my body.My inner wolf almost died of excitement. She was so excited that I was finally doing this with the one I love and not merely clattering my teeth like I used to do with Damien.Even the thought of Damien irr
AVA:Leo has taught me how to defend myself when I was in a position like this, but he dared to die on me. The mere fact that Leo wasn't alive, ringing in my head rendered me immobile and helpless.Like I had told him before, Leo was my strength and the reason why I felt so good. He was the reason why I never succumbed and now, this?What was I supposed to do when Leo died? Would I still have the strength to live?So I lay down there, watched, and did nothing when Damien kept coming closer. Just as his finger was about to touch me, he fell backward, someone had hit him from behind.Immediately, I got up and lo and behold, Leo was behind him. The arrow was still fixed in his chest area."Leo!" I screamed and rushed to Leo, but before I could move so much, Leo collapsed on his knees. I was beside him the next second when I held his hand as he was about to collapse with the arrow still there."Please hold on, and you'll be okay," I said trying hard to wrap my arms around the bloody area.
AUTHOR'S POV:Audrey was thrown into a state of turmoil. Yes, she had initiated the idea of Damien joining the rogues to attack the Blood Crescent pack, but she hadn't expected that it would turn out this way. Of course, no pack in their right senses would agree to go fight the Alpha King.Damien wasn't back yet and the last she heard of him was in the morning when he was stepping out of the house.He had told her that he would come home with the trophy. But now, he was nowhere to be seen. Although Audrey was worried that Damien hadn't yet come back home, it was not because she cared even a little about Damien, it was because she needed to hear that everything was okay on her side. in other words, nothing was going to come for her.She had sent out men to go and get some news on what was going on with Damien but all of them had returned, saying the same thing - they had not seen Damien there and there was no trace of him.Audrey who hadn't expected such an answer was afraid. If Damie
AUTHOR'S POV:In a slightly but stylishly decorated room, a fire was lit in one corner to warm up the room. Damien took his seat a little distance from the fire to keep war.Audrey was beside him, dabbing at his wound with medicine."What is going on, Audrey? Who was that man I saw you with the other day?" Damien asked Audrey, narrowing his eyes at her.He saw the way he looked at her, and that was why he had almost felt disappointed in Audrey, but now he was doubting his decision to believe Audrey because of who she was."Huh, a man, did you see me with a man?" Audrey either pretended to be confused or did not know what he was talking about. "The man who said he was the new gardener. I haven't seen him here before. It's been a week now and he isn't even here after the first appointment. Why is that so?" Damien asked and looked up at Audrey who was standing. Audrey stopped dabbing at his wound.Audrey thought of the best way to avoid the dilemma that was presented to her and she decid
