JARED
I watched as she froze in her spot, making me scoff. Did she really think I was going to go let her be? In her dreams. I took a step closer, but she retreated backward, eliciting an annoyed groan from me.I'm really not in the mood for this. I need to fuck someone right now and I will end up forcing myself on her if she keeps on acting this way. I really don't mind. "I.." she made to talk but I sped towards her, grabbing her waist and pulling her to myself. Her soft boobs landed softly my chest. My gaze drifted to her lips and I immediately smashed my lips on it. Darn it, for some reason I have no idea of, I've developed a thing for her lips, but the problem is, she's not exactly the best kisser, and she's always so hesitant to open up. But that all changed when I gently bit her lower lip. She gasped, and I took advantage of the moment to slide my tongue in, exploring the corners of her mouth and savoring her sweet taste - like strawberries. I kissed her for two minutes straight before pulling out, her mouth wide open as she tried gasping for breath, but I didn't let her cause I captured her lips again and this time, she reciprocated without hesitation. My hands slid down to her plump ass, squeezing it lightly. "Hmm." A smirk appeared on the corner of my lips when a moan escaped her lips. Hastily, took my hand to one of her boobs, my fingers grazing slightly on her nipple. I could feel her shiver in my arms making me smirk. I thought she didn't want this. "Let's get to the bedroom, flower." Whispering into the kiss she froze, but I spanked her ass, and she moaned out. Women would always be bitches. "What the hell is going on here?" Lisa's voice cut through the moment, snapping me out of the kiss. I turned to see her standing in the doorway, her eyes blazing with anger as she glared at Avery, who was now avoiding eye contact. "You are here." Mumbling, I let go of Avery's waist. "Get out!" Lisa yelled at her, and she immediately rushed out. "What was she doing here? And why were you kissing her?" Lisa asked. I let out a deep sigh, sauntering to the cellar. I poured myself a glass of wine before returning to the couch and settling in. "Aren't you going to explain yourself?" She asked again. "Why should I do that? She is my slave, so why can't I kiss her?" I furrowed my brows, taking the glass to my lips. "What?" she scoffed. "Is it because she is your mate?" I stopped drinking immediately, my gaze drifting to her. How did she know? It seems like she knew what I was thinking cause she spoke up right away. "I know she is your mate because I overheard you telling Martin about it. Are you going to leave me for her?" She frowned, and I groaned. "Of course not. I'm not even planning to acknowledge her. Besides, she doesn't even know I'm her mate." "You expect me to believe that?" She scoffed. "Your choice." I shrugged and chugged down the rest of the wine before dropping the glass on the table. I stood up and made to go to the room, but she grabbed my hand, her eyes searching mine. "You are really not going to leave me for her, are you?" I smiled at the anxious look on her face before responding.."Of course, I won't leave you for that weak thing. I am only keeping her for the sex, okay?" Her face relaxed and she sighed out. "I was scared you would leave me for her," she muttered with pouted lips. "Don't worry, I assure you that your position is secure.” She let out a playful giggle, her eyes darting to my pants before locking back onto mine. "How about you have fun with me instead?" She whispered in a seductive voice. I smiled, tempted but I'm suddenly not in the mood anymore. I need to sleep. "I'm tired. See you tomorrow." I tapped her cheek twice before making my way into the room. I heard her leave the suite as I took off my shirt, and pants. I went into the bathroom and into the bathtub. Relaxing my body, I closed my eyes, letting my thoughts wander, from the pack issues to Audrey. I still couldn't believe the moon goddess decided to make her my mate. She is so weak that she couldn't even recognize me as her mate, though I'm grateful for that. I won't have to go through the stress of rejecting her. Either way, I can't possibly rule the pack with that weak thing. Lisa is by far better than her. I should really make her my Luna soon I soaked in the bathtub for a bit, before I finally came out. I grabbed a towel from the rack, wiping my body dry before wrapping the towel around my body and heading out of the bathroom. I made my way into the dressing room and opened the closet, searching for what to wear - mostly black with and a few red. Those are the colours I prefer, so I only wear them. Picking up a black t-shirt and black free pants, I put it on and left the room for my bed. I closed my eyes to sleep, but I just couldn't. I suddenly didn't feel sleepy anymore, which was kind of weird cause I was feeling tired some minutes ago. Maybe I should go for a run. I connected with Mavis through the mind link. *Wanna go for a run?* *No. Go to sleep.* His reply came and I scoffed. *Get here right now.* I ordered and blocked him before getting out of the bed. I walked out of the room and was about leaving the suite when I saw the food on the dining table. I rolled my eyes and walked out of the suite. "Get rid of the food inside." I ordered Garvey, walking out of the building. My eyes landed on Mavis afar who was walking towards me with a frown on his face, making me chuckle. "Why do you suddenly want to go for a run?" He asked gruffly as he got to me, and I smiled. "I can't sleep." "But – " "Come on." I cut him off and changed into my wolf form - Thadeus. Taking my eyes to Mavis, I watched as he sighed before also changing into his wolf form, Leo. "Let's go!" Shouting, the both of us sped off, out of the pack house and into the woods. I turned to Mavis, and he let out a sigh before transforming into his wolf form - Leo. "Let's go!" I yelled, and we both took off, racing out of the pack house and into the woods, our paws pounding the earth in unison.AVERY I left the Alpha King's room and went back to the kitchen, worked for about thirty minutes before deciding to leave for the maids’ quarters, but the court lady told me to clear the plates in the Alpha King's suite. I had completely forgotten about it. I left the kitchen and began heading to the Alpha King's suite and as I walked, my mind went back to the kiss I shared with the Alpha King. To my surprise, I liked it. I liked the way he touched me more. Ahh! I can't believe I almost slept with him if not for the lady that came into the room, but who is she anyway? She seemed angry seeing us in that position. Is she his girlfriend? When I got to Alpha Jared's suite, the guards let me in, and I walked in to meet it empty. "Did he go somewhere?" Mumbling, I walked to the dining table to see that the meals were untouched. He didn't eat. I frowned and packed everything before taking it to the kitchen. I did the dishes, and finally, I could go back to the maids’ quarters. E
AVERY It took some minutes before we finally stopped in front of a suite. The maid opened the door for me, and I walked in while she followed behind. My eyes landed on the Princess Lisa who was sitting on a couch with her legs crossed, she had a glass in her hand which she sipped from. She was the lady from yesterday...so she is the Alpha's girlfriend. No wonder she looked angry when she saw us in that position. She smirked when she saw me. She dropped the glass of wine then stood up, walking to me. "The sl*t is here." She said, taking her hand to my hair. I bit my lip as she grabbed a strand of it, she rolled it on her fingers before drawing on it harshly. "Ouch!" She chuckled, bringing her face closer to mine, her face turning cold. "Who is Alpha Jared to you?" She asked. "What? I don't.. understand." I muttered in confusion. "You don't or you are just pretending?" She asked again, and I sighed. What is she saying? I don't understand a bit of what she is saying. Who is A
AVERY "Ahh!" I gasped out, opening my eyes when cold liquid landed on my face. Alpha Jared was staring down at me. My eyes went to the bowl he was holding and I took my hand to my face...water. Did he just pour water on my face?"Get out of the bed." His cold voice snapped me out of my thoughts. I glanced at him before looking down at my naked body. My face heat up as I recalled yesterday's happenings."Are you deaf?" He said again, and I quickly stood up but I fell back down on the bed when pain gripped me.Oh, no..I don't think I can walk. That's what I thought, but when I looked up at Alpha Jared's face, I had to stand, though with a lot of effort.I picked up my gown which was on the floor, putting it on before trudging to the door, cause I was feeling hellish pains in my under. This was as a result of how hard he went on me yesterday.I finally got to the door after what seemed like forever. I opened it and went out before leaving the suite. I walked out of the building but I w
JAREDWalking out of the bathroom, my brows furrowed when I saw Lisa sitting on the bed, a frown on her face."Why are you here?" I asked."Why was Avery here?" She asked instead."Oh. you saw her." I mumbled, scratching my eyebrows"Yes, I did, so why was she coming out of your suite so early in the morning?" She asked."You saw her, right? So why didn't you ask her?" I raised my brows."What?" Her frown deepened but I said nothing and just walked into the dressing room.I took out a black trouser and shirt then put it on, sprayed perfume on my body before walking out, I went to my bedstand and picked my phone."Are you seriously ignoring me?" Her voice made me look at her, "I'm not ignoring you, I just don't have time for this kind of talk." I clarified."What? You are annoying!" She spat before storming out of the room and out of my suite.I sighed out, tucking my hands inside my pocket before going to the living room."Morning." Mavis walked in and I frowned, "Who asked you to com
AVERYI had just finished dropping the Alpha's used dishes in the kitchen when I heard my name being called. Turning around, I raised my brows a bit at the sight of Princess Lisa's maid."You called my name." I walked closer to her, and she nodded before speaking up. "Princess Lisa wants you in her room.""Huh, why?" I immediately asked."I have no idea, so go on." She replied and walked out of the kitchen.I didn't move, but kept standing in confusion. What did she want me for? Did I offend her... but I don't remember doing so? Biting my lower lip, my legs finally moved and I began walking to her suite. The walk lasted for about two minutes before I finally got to her suite."Come in." Her voice sounded after I knocked on the door. I took a deep breath before going in. My eyes landed on her figure beside the window, but she turned immediately and a smirk appeared on her lips when she saw me."You called for me." I muttered with my gaze on the floor."I did." She slowly walked to me.
The next morning, I couldn't escape Lady Margaret's scolding. I can still recall her yells and Mabel's snickering as I headed to the Alpha Jared's suite with his breakfast."You can go in." The guard said after announcing my presence to the Alpha. I walked in but stopped in my tracks when I saw Princess Lisa there, sitting with her legs crossed."And why are you standing there without doing nothing?" Her irritated voice sounded, and I bowed slightly before going to the dining table. I arranged the meals on it and began tasting them, and all through, I could feel her cold eyes on me.Just as I was done tasting the meal, the room door opened and Alpha Jared showed up."Good morning, Alpha." He ignored me, and turned to Princess Lisa who stood and kissed him right there.I gulped nothing as I stared at them. Somehow, watching them kiss made me feel as if something heavy was placed in my chest. The worst part was that Princess Lisa was touching him all over."I..." They seemed like they w
AVERYI opened my eyes to the bright sun emitting from the window. A soft sigh escaped my lips as I looked around. My eyes widened when I realized where I was, and I sprang up, looking around to be sure I was not seeing things. I was in the Alpha Jared's room!My mind went to what happened yesterday, how I was running from that creepy guard, then I suddenly felt dizzy and I almost fell biy someone caught me then...the sweet scent. What was that about?"What are you doing here?" My thoughts were cut short when Princess Lisa walked into the room, a frown speedily appearing on her face when she saw me."Er– I don't know.""What do you mean you don't know? Are you playing with me?!" She asked with a glare."I– " "What's going on?" We both turned to the door where Alpha Jared stood with a questioning look on his face."I should be the one asking you that. What's she doing here?!" Princess Lisa hollered."Watch the way you talk to me, Lisa." Alpha Jared said going to the cellar."Seriously
AVERY"Ahh." I sighed out as Alpha Jared pulled out from me. He left the bed while I kept laying there with my eyes closed. Throughout the sex, I felt like he was angry, but I couldn't point it out, though he made mention of me sleeping with someone else. Since he was the one who picked me yesterday, I guess he thinks that way because of how I looked yesterday. Sigh. What can I say?Before he would say something, I stood up from the bed, picked up my clothes which were on the floor, and put it on before turning to him. His pants was back on. "Take the food away." His crisp voice came and I nodded before making my way out of the room. I went to the dining and did what he said. I took the food to the kitchen."Why didn't he eat the food?" Mabel's voice came as I dropped the food."You can have it if you want." I replied simply and walked past her."Bitch." I could hear her say as I walked to the door."You did well." Mia showed up, and I furrowed brows in confusion. She motioned to M
It didn't take long before we got to the bar and I informed Grey about resigning. He seemed shocked but we wrapped up our discussion earlier and I went back to meet Jared. From there, we shopped for some groceries. I only got what I would need to prepare Brown rice with beef stir-fry today since we were leaving tomorrow.When we got back to the apartment, I made my way to the kitchen immediately, settling the things I bought before starting to prepare the food. I began by chopping the onions before grilling the beef.I was already halfway through this when I felt a hand around my waist. Nobody needed to tell me that it was Jared. Even is thick lavender scent is surely noticeable.A kiss on my neck made me stilled. I paused grilling and quickly pushed him off. His laughter filled my ears as I turned around to glare at him."Stop bothering me, okay?" I told him but he shook his head and moved closer. My back hit the counter as his arms wrapped around my waist, then he started leaning in
"Bye!" I bade Jared goodbye as I came out of his car.Jared expression turned sour. "Do you really have to go?""Yep." I nodded and raised the phone on my hand. Since my phone went missing, Jared got me a new one yesterday."You can call me here if you're worried." I told him and he nodded reluctantly.He suddenly leaned in and kissed my lips for a brief moment."See you, I will pick you up this afternoon." He said as he pulled away. I nodded and exited the car. I watched him drive away before heading to the cafe.After today, I won't come here anymore cause I had plans to resign. Same goes to my job at the bar.As I strode into the cafe, Sia who was by the counter looked up swiftly."You're here, huh?" "Yeah." I mumbled, goin to the dressing room. I changed into my uniform before coming out.Sia was no more by the counter, she was currently tidying the tables so I joined her.As I did, I couldn't stop myself from glancing at Sia frequently. I don't know how to bring Javier's issue u
The next time I opened my eyes, Jared was right in front of me... staring at me! "Why... are you staring?" I asked in a stutter."Nothing really, you just look pretty while sleeping." He whispered, a playful grin spreading across his face."Oh..." I trailed off and silence set in. Only the sound of our low breaths could be heard as we stared at each other.Minutes passed and Kyra's words replayed in my mind. I guess... she is right. The guy in front of me staring at me with pure affection and love really deserves another chance.I reached out to his face, caressing it softly. His brows creased slightly but I simply smiled and continued caressing his face."When do you want to leave?" I asked and his brows furrowed. "What do you mean?""Aren't we going to the pack any longer? When?" I aksed again and his eyes widened."But you said you were not going, so – ""I don't remember saying that?" I mumbled.Jared raised his brows but he shook his head. "It's fine if you don't want to. I just
AVERY "Urrgh" I let out a low groan as my eyes fluttered opened. My eyes landed on Jared who immediately jerked forward on his seat. "You're awake." "Hmm," I mumbled and my eyes drifted to my surroundings. My brows creased at the sight of drugs and the smell of drug. "Where am I?"I asked, my gaze going back to Jared who still had a pure look of concern. "The hospital." "Huh? Why – " the rest of the words got stuck in my mouth as I recalled what happened. My eyes dilated slightly and a look of disbelief clouded my face. "About Javier, it's not true, right?" A frown appeared on Jared's face. "Are you still going to trust him after what he did to you?" "No, it's not that." I shook my head slowly. "I just can't believe it. How is it possible that he is not human? That means approaching me was because he had something, he – " I choked on my words as tears slipped out of my eyes and Jared's hands wrapped around me in a warm embrace. I hugged him tighter as the tears continued. Javi
JAVIERThe moment I stepped into the portal to the other realm, I quickly closed it to prevent Jared from coming in."You're finally here." I turned at the sound of the familiar voice and a figure came out from behind a tree, a face stiff and cold - Lisa. Her gaze moved behind my back as she took slow, predatory steps towards me. "Where is she?"My gaze swept through her face as I hesitated to speak. "I lost her." I finally spoke up and her eyes twitched, her eyes glinting with darkness."What do you mean you lost her?" She asked, her voice low but anyone could tell she was getting angry."It's Jared - he showed up just as I was about bringing her here.""What!" Her bottled up anger finally unleashed. "Are you that stupid? How could you let him find her!"I let out a sigh. "I also didn't expect it, Jared is just a bastard – ""A bastard?" She cut me off, the lines of her forehead crinking into a frown. "Who do you think you are to call him a bastard?!"I scoffed at her abused questi
My eyes dilated as a cold dread clawed it's way up to my spine. Why is he acting weird? He looks completely different. This isn't the Javier I know.'Call mate!' Kyra yelled in my head and I immediately reached for my phone, dialing Jared's number."Avery, where are you?" Jared's voice sounded and Javier faced me with a frown."You bitch! What do you think you are doing?" He spat and reached for my phone, but before he could get to it, I yelled into the phone."Jared help, we are going through a deserted road!" I said and that moment, Javier collected the phone, hanging up.I watched in terror as he threw the phone out of the car before facing me, a smirk on his face. "I would advise that you don't act stupid and just stay put." He said, his voice sending chills through my spine.'That bastard!' Kyra growled in my head, but I said nothing.I swallowed nothing, biting my lip hard. What is going on here? Why is Javier acting strange? How come he is speaking to me this way? How?I was s
The next day, I left the cafe one hour early so I could visit to the hospital. I also got cheesecake and some other snacks to give to Riley. Jared didn't pick me up since I asked him not to, so I took a cab there.As I stepped out of the cab into the hospital, I hummed to a song I was listening to cause I was having an ear pod on. After walking for some minutes, I finally got to Riley's ward in the VIP section. I pulled the door open, my eyes landing on Riley who as staring out of the window, but she turned immediately."Avery!" Her eyes lightened up and she rushed to me, grabbing my hand. "I was waiting for you.""Really?" I raised my brows and she nodded. I guess she must have been expecting me since I promised her."Here, I got you something from the cafe." I raised the bag I was holding up and get eyes brightened more. She took it from me, smiling as she brought the things out.The moment she finished, she turned to me, her lips pursed into a slight pout. "Thanks, Avery. You're th
The next day, Jared took me to the hospital. After a long walk, we finally got to Riley's ward and Jared pulled the door open.Riley was staring at her phone but she looked up when we walked in."Avery!" Her eyes lit up and I waved at her, going closer to her."Are you okay? You're not really hurt, right?" Iet out my questions as my eyes scanned her body thoroughly. Her left arm was bandaged and she had a few scratches which had already being treated.Riley let out a chuckle and I looked up at her face."Don't worry, I'm fine, I should get discharged today." I was surprised at how indifferent she was. I know we were werewolves but she doesn't even seem like she was a bit hurt at all.The door opening made us turn to it and a doctor walked in with a nurse."Good morning." We exchanged greetings respectfully but Jared remained silent though. He is still the cocky man that he is I guess."Miss, how do you feel?" The doctor asked, coming close. I moved from where I was so he could be cl
"Grey, I'm leaving now!""Wait. Can you help me the guy at the corner, the part timer is not the yet." Grey said in return.I let out a groan. "How annoying can this be."With dragged feet, I collected the drink he was holding and walked to the corner he talked about.Right there, a man with a rugged face and a tattoo close to his ear was seated.I bit my lip and dropped the drink on the table. "Enjoy." I mumbled but I could feel his eyes on me which made me roll my eyes. This kinda happens often so it's not a big deal."Can I go now?" I asked Grey who sighed."I'm sorry, can you do a thirty minute extra?" "What! That's – ""Pretty please." Grey said, giving me the puppy eyes.I shook my head with a hint of disgust and dropped my bag. I took my phone to call Jared cause he was surely waiting but just as I was about dialing his number..."Avery!" It was a call from Grey.With a low groan, I dropped my phone and started serving again.After about thirty minutes like he said, the part-
