AVERYI sighed loudly as I looked out of the window once again. I had finished all my work for today and I'm currently in my room. All I wanted was to take a brief rest and possibly clear my mind. I was still staring out of the window when the door opened. I looked away from the window to see Mia."Hey, have this." She pointed an egg sandwich at me. "I didn't see you in the kitchen, so I brought it to you. You skipped dinner too.""Hmm..." I hummed, taking the sandwich from her. "Thanks.""You're welcome." She muttered and sat beside me on the bed."Are you okay?" She asked as I took a bite of the sandwich. I faced her as I munched on it. "What do you mean?""You've been quiet, and you skipped dinner, same as today, if I didn't bring it to you.""I'm fine, just...." I trailed off, not knowing what to say. I can't probably tell her about what's going on.I could feel her staring, but since I didn't know what to say, I just focused on eating."What do you think about Princess Riley and
JAREDA knock sounded on the door as I worked in my office. I asked whoever it was to come in, and the door opened. Mavis walked in."Any news?" I asked, without looking at him."Yeah, I'm not sure if it's good, though." I looked up this time as he settled on the chairs in front of me."The business deal we are trying to get from the Silver Pack, The Black Moon Pack, is also opting for it."A frown appeared on my face as Mavis elaborated on his statement. We had been trying to make a deal with the Silver Pack. They have a lot of resources and so do we, but we needed to expand, and The Black Moon also opting for the deal means trouble."You know we can't let them get it, right? They would surpass us if they do." I spoke up when he was done talking.The Black Moon Pack and this pack, The Crescent Moonstone Pack, are total enemies. Their Alpha, Drew, is a total pain in the ass, always trying to make trouble with me, and it's so obvious that's what he is doing now. His pack getting the de
AVERY"Good morning." I greeted Garvey as I walked into Alpha Jared's suite. The sitting room was silent and he was not there, which was unusual, so I went to the bedroom to check, and there he was, sleeping. It surprised me though, he is always awake by this time, so it made me wonder if he was okay.I slowly made my way in. I moved to the edge of the bed and bent with my eyes on his face. A small smile appeared on my face as I stared from his thick eyebrows to his eyes, which were closed, his lashes which were surprisingly long, hugged themselves. His sharp nose, his smooth skin, and then his lips.I swallowed nothing as my eyes remained on his lips. They were so thin and smooth. It made me want to kiss the hell out of him, but I knew better than to lean in to my wish.He looked really peaceful and surreal now, not the tough, frowny Alpha Jared everyone knows him as. My eyes landed on a strand of hair blocking his face. I reached out to his hair to move the strand, but just as I was
AVERY "Take breakfast to Alpha Jared." Lady Margaret said as I walked into the kitchen."He doesn't want breakfast." I told her and sat down on a stool at the counter."Hmm...okay." She said and walked out.I looked at my hand and sighed out. I agreed to follow Princess Riley to the mall after she insisted. We are leaving in the afternoon though, she says she has something to do. The door opened and Mia walked in. I smiled as she came to sit beside me."Done with your work?""Yeah." I nodded."Have you eaten?" I shook my head, and she stood up. "Same here."She went to the pot and dished out food."Thanks." I mumbled as she dropped it in front of me. "Uh...did you get injured again." She was about sitting when she spoke up, pointing at my elbow. I moved my eyes to my elbow. I sighed out when I saw an injury there. I guess I scraped it when I fell earlier."We should get it treated." She stepped away to the first aid cabinet which was hanging on the wall. She came back to me after pi
"Did you do it?" Alpha Jared asked, staring at me.This morning, I woke up like I always did to get ready for work, but I was called to Alpha Jared's presence for supposedly stealing something."I didn't." I replied his question."You filth! How dare you deny stealing my bracelet. You cleaned my room the day before yesterday remember?""But I didn't clean it yesterday, so why accusing me?" I countered."You didn't clean my room yesterday, but you cleaned my room the day before yesterday without any supervision. I was in my room when the maids came to clean and bring food to me, but they took nothing, so how are you going to explain the missing bracelet? You stole it!" She yelled."I didn't!" I yelled back, and she scoffed before facing Alpha Jared. "How about we check her room, then we would know for sure.""Yes, let's do that, cause you won't find anything there." I agreed."Alright, let's do it then." Alpha Jared stood up and walked out of the suite.Princess Lisa smirked at me befo
JARED"I, Avery Kyra Beckham, accept your rejection." Avery said, accepting my rejection, but I didn't feel glad like I expected to be. My eyes stared into her own, which were filled with sadness. I folded my fist as I felt the bond breaking. Without saying a word, I walked out of the cell, with a fast pace, but when I left the dungeon completely, my pace slowed down Slow and weak as the pain of the rejection began.No matter how high ranked one is, you can't get away with the pain that comes after rejection. That's the punishment for refusing the moon goddess's gift.The pain was increasing and I needed to get to my room, but when I got there, Lisa was there, laying nakedly on the bed."Leave." That was the first thing that came out of her mouth, but she stood, reaching out to me."What do you mean? You didn't go to Avery, right? I know you are in heat and I'm here to help you so...""Leave!!!" I growled, my eyes flashing red. She quickly moved back, hurriedly put on her clothes bef
AVERYLike I guessed, I was called to work the moment I woke up. Lady Margaret sent one of the maids to me. She asked me to clean the mess hall as the warriors just finished their lunch, which was surprising. Cleaning the mess hall was not one of my jobs, but thank goodness, I was feeling much better, so I didn't have to put more effort before I got to the mess hall.The warriors were just leaving the hall. Once they were all out, I began working. I started from clearing the dishes they used in eating before cleaning the whole place. It took about an hour before I was done, and I was already taking the dishes to the kitchen when my eyes caught Alpha Jared with Beta Mavis in the training ground. They were doing a shooting duel with the arrow.I had no idea when I stopped walking to watch them, my eyes solely on Alpha Jared, which I tried taking off him, but I surprisingly could not do it. It felt as if something was pulling me to him. He had just won against Beta Mavis when his head wi
JAREDI inhaled as Avery walked out of the room, my eyes not leaving her. Ever since I saw her this afternoon, I've been perceiving a faint smell from. It's only for a brief moment and then it disappears."What are you staring at?" I looked at Lisa who was staring at me with a pout."Nothing." Standing up, I left for the sitting room and she followed me, sitting on my lap the moment I sat."What are you doing, Lisa?" I groaned. I'm really not in the mood for this but she won't just get it. She kissed me, touching my chest with her hand"Lisa..." She drew me back when I tried pulling away. I had no choice but to stop resisting. I kissed her back fiercely, taking my hand to her ass to squeeze."Ah.." She let out and I continued squeezing it. The door opened and I stopped. Avery was the one who walked in and she halted when she saw us."Come on." Lisa pulled me back to the kiss, and I kissed her back, ignoring Avery. This is just what I need to get my mind off her and that faint smell.I
