“Alright we will take Sophia with us”. Lucain smiled.“But on a second thought Lucian”. Derek begins.“Do you really think it's a good idea to involve Sophia in this? She has been through enough already. I mean Derek kind of betrayed her, so do you think it’s right for us to take her there and let her think of the pain all over again?”. Derek suggested.“Stay one place Derek, that's how your plan keeps failing”. Lucian smirks, mocking him.“What do you mean my plan keeps fail…”. Derek raised his eyebrows.“What.. What did you call me?”. He whispered.“Derek, delta Derek!”. Lucian mocked.Derek looked at him in shock, wondering how he realised.“What?”. He stuttered.Lucian laughed, his laughter slowly died down as his face turned cold.“You really think I don’t know it was you all along? When next you wanna pretend to be someone, learn about them first, Lucas does not like pancakes nor does he stay in the guest room. Even if you get those things right, what about his scent? You are re
“I am sorry I did not want to, I just could not watch him die! He told me he’s changed and I would not try to get Ava nor come for you. He said he will do as I say!”She whispered.“Are you for real? Are you that stupid to believe him, he was about to die and you’re the only one who could save him. Of course he would say that. So now he is alive?”. He gasped.“Why did you knock Ava out?”. He added.“He wants to meet her!”. “You want to take my mate to him? How dare you?”. Lucian thundered, as he slowly dropped Ava to the ground, walking towards Sophia.“Please!”. She cried as her back hit the wall, having nowhere to run to. “You were taking my own mate to another man?? Derek of all people? If it was not for her, you wouldn't be here today, alive and well!”. He yelled.“I’m sorry, please!”. Sophia begged.Lucian grabbed her by the neck, strangling her against the wall.“I told you the next time we meet I will make sure to end your life but she begged for your sake, even though you wer
“Drake, take him back to the pack. End him once and for all!”. Lucian order.“Ava baby, don’t forget about the projector, huh? I am very sure you can’t forget!”. He laughed as Drake dragged him away.“Well, that goes our problem, freedom at last!”. Kayla yelled, laughing.“Oh baby I have missed you so much”. Lucas pouted, pulling her into his arm.“Geez get your arms off me you stink! Did you not take a bath at all?”. She whispered, even though she was hugging him back.“Yeah I did not but I will take a shower with you later!”. He murmured.“You think I will shower with you?”. Kayla chuckled.“You have alway shower with me whenever I’m here!”. Enzo faked a cough.“We are still here please!”. He laughed.“Ethan, Sophia, I haven few guest room at my place. You guys can move there and choose any room of your choice!”. Enzo offered.“The guard will take you there!”. He added, muttering to the guard to escort Ethan to his mansion.Ethan nodded, taking one look at Sophia before leaving with
“I don’t but Maya, I can’t say it’s not true because I know what Lucian is capable of doing when he’s angry!”. Ava murmured.“Why don’t you just talk to him? I mean, look at him he clearly does not want to be here but still he brought you, me and Nathan here so you can cheer up a bit. And you could not even give him the benefit of the doubt? What exactly did Derek show you?”. Maya muttered angrily.“A video of Lucian torturing my parents!”. Ava blurted out.“What!!!?”. Maya let out a scream, causing Lucian to look at them worriedly.Ava smiled at him, waving.“Keep your voice down bitch!”. Ava groan.“I’m sorry but what did you say?”.“You heard me loud and clear maya!”. Ava responded, rolling her eyes.“That can’t be true, no Lucian would never ever do that!”. Maya said, refusing to believe what she just heard.“Hmm!”. Ava signed.“Did Derek tell you why he did that? I mean that guy is a monster that’s why I never like him!”. Maya scoffed irritatedly.“No he just showed me but during
Lucian frowns.“Who’s lily?!”.“She is uncle Derek’s little sister!”. The car immediately came to a halt as Lucian glazed back.“What??”. Lucian yelled, turning back to face Nathan.“Say that again!”. He order.“She is uncle Derek’s little sister!”. Nathan repeated.“Oh my…”. Lucian gasped happily.“Marvellous is alive, I can not believe this!”. He whispered happily, going through his phone.“Lucian what happened? Don’t you know about her?”. Ava asked.“I do, love. I do know about her but I thought she was no more. I could not find her no matter how hard I try then. I thought she was…. Uhmm gone that night too!”. He explained as he went through his phone.“Enzo!”. Lucian called“I’m two streets away from the mansion, come pick Ava and Nathan up!”. He said into the phone, before dropping it.“Love, where does Derek live?”. Ava started giving him the address, still shocked at his reaction who knew Lucian could care so much about a little girl.Lucian waited till Enzo came to pick them
“So you’re a girl, and you’re really in love with this guy like so much, and he does love you equally too but somehow somewhere you learnt he had once tortured your parents really badly. What would you do? How will you take it?”. “If it turns out to be true after I asked him, I will leave and never come back!”. Enzo responded, staring dead into her eyes.If only he knew he would have never given her that kind of advice.“Cool!”. Ava smirks.“Why? what happened?”. He asked."Why 'cool'?" Enzo asked, a hint of concern in his voice. "I don't think this is something to joke about. If someone you loved had done something like that, it would be really hard to process.""I'm just joking," Ava said, looking him straight in the eye. “but if someone I love had done something like that, I would cut them out of my life without a second!”. Enzo looked at her, his expression unreadable. "That's...a really extreme reaction," Enzo said carefully. "I get that you're upset, but I'm not sure that's t
“Even though I don’t like you but I have to agree with you on this one, it has been one week and she’s not back to normal yet, she’s distant and alway asking random questions”. Kayla said.Enzo was about to respond when he spot her, He stood up as she approached, his eyes fixed on her.“Ava?”. They all called.Enzo reached out and gently took her hand, his touch grounding her in the moment.“Are you okay?” he asked, his voice filled with genuine concern.Ava took a deep breath, trying to gather her thoughts. “Call Lucian, tell him I need him here in five minutes! And anything less than that I am leaving!”. With that she turned around, heading into their room as she started packing her things before heading back.“Ava what’s going on? Why are your things packed?”. Kayla yelled, trying to grab the bag.“Hands off Kayla, where is Lucian?”. Ava said coldly.Just immediately Lucian banged in breathing heavily with lily by his side.“Enzo, what did you say Ava did?”. He asked."Nothing!" E
ONE MONTH LATER.Lucian was lying motionless on the bed with Kayla and Enzo beside him. He had once again fallen into a coma after Ava left… yes she left.“I still can’t believe she left him again!”. Enzo murmured.“Even I would have done the same, if she could leave him for seven years just to protect her parents. Do you think she will come back to him knowing he tortured the people she loves the most in the world!”. Kayla asked.“Even though I am to blame, she had asked me for advice. And I have given the wrong without thinking it through. But I thought Lucian loves Ava a lot, why would he still hurt her parents?!”. Enzo exclaimed.“That's because he never knew she was his mate, his plan was to kill them and their whole generation but the moment he realised their daughter was mated to him, he stopped.” Drake explained, walking into the room as he pecked Enzo.“Although falling for Ava was never part of his plan, he even wanted to reject her because he could not bear the thought of be
**TWO WEEKS LATER**“Ava, you’re gonna be late to your wedding!!”. Kayla screamed.“The wedding started an hour ago, and you’re not even dressed yet!”. Her mother screamed too.Lucian had brought back her parents two days after he proposed to her, apologising to them for her he had done."But I'm not ready!" Ava protested, panicking. "I need more time!""There is no more time," Kayla said, trying to stay calm. "We need to get you dressed and out the door right now."“How long will you keep the poor man waiting?”. Her mother asked.“We are almost done!”. Sophia said, curly the last of Ava’s hair.“Ain’t you going to the wedding?”. Kayla asked Sophia.“Why won’t i? Of course I’m going!”. “And you ain’t dressed yet?”. Kayla gasped, helping Ava with her dress.“I’m not the bride, it’s fine if I get there late!”. “Oh that’s nice, at least I will be the only one to catch the flower!”. “Like you wanna get married any time soon!”. Ava chuckled.Sophia laughed and rolled her eyes. "I'm in no
Ethan shook his head, still chuckling. "Look, man, Ava loves you. She's not going to say no. Just take a deep breath, gather your courage, and ask her. You've got this.""Okay, okay," he said, waving his hands in surrender. "I'm being ridiculous. But it's a big moment for me, and I want everything to go perfectly.""Of course you do," Ethan said, his smile softening. "But remember, the most important thing is your love for each other. All the other stuff - the flowers, the fancy restaurant, the perfect proposal - that's all just icing on the cake.""I know," Lucian said, taking another deep breath. "Thank you!”. “She’s here!”. Enzo announced as the light immediately went off.Lucian's heart leapt into his throat as the reality of the moment hit him. In just a few minutes, he would be asking Ava to spend the rest of her life with him. "We will leave you to it," Ethan said, giving Lucian a final smile. "Just be yourself and everything will be fine."Lucian nodded, his mouth suddenly
**A WEEK LATER**Sophia, Kayla, and Ava were gathered in Ava's bedroom, surrounded by a sea of clothes and accessories. Ava was getting ready for her date with Lucian, and the girls were determined to make sure she looked absolutely stunning."Okay, what about this one?" Sophia asked again, holding up a beautiful, flowy gown. "What do you think, Ava?". She asked, showing her the eighth dress.Ava examined the dress and nodded in approval. "I love it. It's perfect for tonight."“No, that looks too simple. We need something hot”. Kayla disagrees, searching for something else."You don't want to look too simple,"Sophia said. "We need something that will make Lucian's jaw drop.""What about this one?" Sophia asked, holding up a black, sparkling dress."Oooh, now we're talking," Kayla said, winking at Ava. "That will definitely make an impression.""But is it too much?" Ava asked, feeling a little unsure. "I don't want to look like I'm trying too hard. It’s just a date""Oh please," Kayla
"I'm sorry, Kayla," he said, his voice cracking. "I have to do this. But that doesn't mean that I won't miss y’all or I won't always care about you. You are all a part of my heart, and that will never change."“What are you saying?”. Drake chuckled, looking at everyone.“Who said you’re leaving without us?”. Enzo added, smiling as he lock hand with drake.“We are all going with you!”. Kayla said.Lucian's eyes widened in surprise, and he felt a wave of hope wash over him. "Are you serious?" he asked, his voice full of wonder."Of course we're serious," Drake said, a smile spreading across his face. "We're your pack, and we're not going to let you leave without us. You're stuck with us, whether you like it or not."Lucian felt his eyes well up with tears, and he couldn't help but laugh through his tears. "I think I can live with that," he said, his voice choked with emotion."Thank you," he whispered, not sure if he was speaking to Drake or the Goddess or both. "Thank you for everythin
“Chill, I’m just hugging my brother, I’m not stealing him away from you!”.“No, not that!”. He said, his tone serious, causing Lucain to disengage from Enzo and far him.“What’s wrong?”. Lucian asked, turning to face drake.“I c-can’t feel your alpha aura!”. Drake murmured. Lucian's heart skipped a beat as he processed what Drake had said. "What do you mean you can't feel my alpha aura?”. He closed his eyes, trying to sense his own alpha aura, but it was gone. He opened his eyes, and saw the concern on Drake's face. "It's like you're no longer a werewolf," Drake said, his voice filled with worry. "But you're not a human either”. Drake looked at him, worry etched on his face. "I don't know," he said. "You feel...different."“Oliver!”. Lucian called in his head, silencing begging and praying he would get a response.“Please don’t do this to me, I haven’t even made a decision yet. Fucking answer me Oliver!”. He yelled in his mind.Lucian's heart was pounding in his chest as he waite
Lucian stood still, his eyes fixed on the horizon. He didn't know what to say, or how to respond. Part of him wanted to lash out, but he knew that wouldn't help. And not long after, the goddess came back.“Lucian, what do you wish for?”. She asked, her tone firm and commanding.Lucian smirks, taking two steps closer.“I wish to sever all connections with the werewolves," he said, his voice steady and resolute. "But I want to keep my lycan. I want to be free from their influence, and I don't want to lose a part of myself in the process."“What???”. She gasped in surprise.“That is two wishes not one!”. “So? Two wishes is too much for your powers and you can’t fulfil them?”. Lucian asked arrogantly.The goddess raised an eyebrow, looking amused by Lucian's cheeky remark. "Two wishes is not too much for my powers," she said, her tone teasing. "But I am curious why you would make such a request. Why are you so desperate to escape the werewolves? Or you’re just a coward, just a little pa
"I...I don't know," he said, his voice shaking. "I just...I just want to be happy with Ava and the kids. But I don't know what that looks like without Oliver." Lucian murmured“I know it's a difficult decision, Lucian. But I'll support you no matter what you choose. Whether you want to sever our connection or not, I'll always be here for you." Oliver said, trying to hide the pain and fear in his voice.“We don’t have all day Lucian, I will come back again in two hours, make your decision before then, Lucian. And as for you alpha Edward, await your punishment!”. She said, smiling mysteriously.Alpha Edward stiffened, his eyes widening. "Punishment?" he asked, a note of fear in his voice. "What kind of punishment?""You will find out soon enough," the moon goddess said, her tone enigmatic. "I will return in two hours, so prepare yourself." With that, she vanished into thin air, leaving Lucian and Alpha Edward alone in the dark.Lucian turned to Alpha Edward, his expression solemn. "Wha
**AT THE PACK**“Oh no!”. Vanessa murmured fearfully.“What's wrong?”. They all asked at once.“Alpha Edward did not take the portion!”. She gasped, showing them the vail.“That is not possible I gave them to him myself!”. Enzo murmured, staring at the portion in Vanessa's hand.“Fuck!”. She murmured frustratedly, running her hands through her hair.“This is bad!”. She added.“What’s gonna happen now?”. Enzo murmured."This is bad," Enzo said, his brow furrowed in concern. "If Alpha Edward doesn't take the portion, he could die."“I don't know,” Vanessa said, her voice trembling. “I can't believe this is happening,” Vanessa said, shaking her head in disbelief. “Why would he not take the portion?”.“Probably felt too guilty and proud to take it!”. Kayla said, rolling her eyes.“There’s only three hours left before midnight!”. Vanessa murmured.“Vanessa, will he be fine?”. Enzo murmured, fear written all over his face.“That only depends on your goddess!”.*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*
“My whole life has just been based on lies.. lies. Everyone I loved had lied to me. I never did anything wrong!”. “I will never forgive you for this!”. I swore.His eyes widened in shock, “no please. You need to let go of your anger or else you will never get out of here!”. “I’m sorry, I know what I did was wrong and I am not asking you to forgive me but……. F-for the sake of the love and respect you have for me!”. I rush towards him, grabbing him by the collar.“I have no love or respect for you, Edward!. You do not deserve any of my respect love. You do not deserve to be my father!”. I yelled angrily. “For 24 years, I have been hating on people that I was not supposed to. I had deprived Ava of the love of her parents, thinking they were the cause of my problem, and you dare speak of love and respect?”. Edward's eyes widened in shock as I continued to speak, my voice shaking with anger and hurt."I have spent years blaming others for my own mistakes, for the sin you committed. I
