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
AVERYAs I walked out of the infirmary, loud sigh escaped my lips. The doctor's words echoed in my mind, refusing to sink in. Hearing I was pregnant, was hard to believe until Kyra attested to it. She said she had been feeling strange and heavy since the past few days, so being pregnant was a possiblity. But I couldn't wrap my head around it. How can I be pregnant? It's possible, but.... not after what I heard from Mia. Am I going to get killed too? And the pup– even though it's unexpected, I can't let it get killed.Placing my hand on my stomach, I moved it around, hoping to feel the pup, but there was nothing. He is probably still small."Avery!!" I looked ahead to see Mabel staring at me angrily."Are you going to take dinner to Alpha Jared or you want me to come get you?!"My heart skipped at the sound of Alpha Jared. What if he finds out or should I tell him?"Avery!!!" I groaned and began heading to the kitchen. I walked past her when I got to her, and before she could say anyt
Exhaling loudly, I stopped running after realizing I was far from the pack house. I looked through the dark wood, as the thought of going back home crossed my mind, but I knew my stepfather would not hesitate to send me back. The pack wasn't safe either as I could easily be found.The woods was really dark. However, I was able to thread through it with the help of my night vision. The feeling of having a wolf was once again nice, and this brought questions I always had for Kyra but I never seemed to ask, because I was either too busy to ask or trying to understand why Alpha Jared wished to reject me. I had the time now, so I reached out to Kyra who was wide awake and helping me make my way through the woods."Where were you all this while?" When I clocked sixteen, I patiently waited for her to surface, but she didn't and that was the needed age to get your wolf. I heard there and I wanted to know mine, but the reply she gave shocked Byme."It's because of the wolfsbane.""Wolfsbane?"
"Clean up the room and make sure you're not noisy.""Okay.""I will leave now."My eyelids fluttered open at the sound of people talking. Above me, I saw a white surface. What's this place? The sound of footsteps made me turn my head."Ooh, she is awake!" Two women showed up by my sides, their eyes peering into mine."Are you okay?" I looked at the middle aged woman staring down at me."Where am I?" I managed to ask, my voice weak."You're at the Black Moon Pack." She replied."Black Moon?" I asked, confused as I tried sitting up. They helped me."Yes. Our Alpha found you and brought you here." The woman explained."Alpha? Found?" I'm supposed to be in the Crescent Moonstone Pack, aren't I?Just then, the door opened, and a man entered the room. "You're awake." "Alpha!" My brows furrowed as he walked closer to me. The two ladies stepped back."How do you feel? Does your head hurt?""Head? Did I get hurt?" I asked, instinctively taking my hand to my head. My fingers grazed the bandag
JARED"Are you ready?" My room door opened and Mavis poked his head in. The Alpha of the Silver bead Pack was back from traveling and we had managed to schedule a meeting with him. I was currently getting dressed for it.Tucking my shirt in my trouser, I grabbed my jacket and phone before heading out."Has Avery arrived?" It was already thirty minutes passed the usual time she came to my room, but I had not seen her."No, why?" Mavis asked."My coffee," I muttered, "but let's go." We both walked out of the room. Garvey made to follow us, but I told him to stay back in case Avery comes.We got to the car and Mavis drove out of the pack house. It took about an hour before we got to the Silver bead pack. We were stopped at the border for questioning, but I didn't have to answer lots of questions before we were allowed into the pack.It took about another twenty minutes before we got to their pack house. Mavis and I left the car and one of the guards approached us immediately. He must hav
AVERYI ambled out of the bathroom in a new dress, which was given to me by the court lady, the lady from earlier. My head was still bandaged, so I made sure not to touch it. I stepped out of the room and I was in the middle of a hallway with soft lighting and warm colors.I made my way forward. I had no idea where I was heading but I just wanted to be out of the room. As I walked through the hallway, I caught sight of the paintings laid on the wall. One of them was a painting of the moon, the other was the sky. At a distance, a painting of a human figure laid on the wall. I sauntered to the painting and I blinked when I saw a man there. He looked like he was in his early fifties in the painting. His face was stoic and carried elegance and power. I got chills from just staring at it."Avery." I turned at the sound of my name."Alpha." I bowed when I saw Alpha Drew walking towards me."What are you doing here?""Oh.. I'm just looking around. Who is he though?" I questioned, pointing at
