I inhaled deeply stepping out of the car.Who would have thought I would move out of my palace to stay in Dorian's place? We didn't have a choice, Jennifer knows every nook and cranny of the palace and the Luna's estate making it easier for her to attack or sneak it. “I hate this,” Charles frowned, walking beside me. “We would never hear the end of this.”“Where is Elena?” Amelia asked, hanging her bag on her shoulder. “Didn't she come?”“Elena said she would meet us later, I don't know where she went,” Charles replied. “She must have quit, and I don't blame her for that, everyone is afraid of death,” Amelia muttered. I nodded in agreement. Before we came here, I revealed everything to my people including the fact that I have lost my wolf and this was a punishment from the moon goddess and we were all going to die, so many people left, only few insisted on waiting and fighting to death. “Hello bro
Ava’s POV“What do you mean?” I frowned. “My son's birth was a mistake, there can't be a second devil Alpha but I brought one into the world, we can't afford a third,”She shrugged. “I have a theory that Arthur dismissed before he died or went into coma, however you call it, that your son is to bring a change to the system.”“I know that,” I frowned. “But what does that have to do with this situation on ground?”She scoffed with a shrug. “Arthur is one strong will bitch, he fought his way back, the moon goddess can't help us anymore Ava.”“What do you mean she can't help us?* I snapped. “This is totally her fault.”“Have you heard about cleansing?” She asked.I rolled my eyes, getting frustrated. “The moon goddess original goal is to cleanse this family, that's why she brought the second devil Alpha, and made the first devil Alpha protect him, but Arthur wouldn't just leave, so I guess she found a way to make sure he isn't the devil Alpha.”“By giving it to someone else?” I growled.“
Ava’s POv. I turned around, my heart hammering loudly in my chest as I stared at the darkness. This wasn't what I was expecting. I was expecting a shiny room with people sitting down on golden chairs. “Hello,” I shouted, my voice echoing into the darkness. “Is anyone there?” I shouted again but all only my echoes responded back. Taking in deep breaths I decided to move around, it wasn't like I was seeing anything, suddenly a bright light shone in the distance.I swallowed hard, slowly moving towards the light. “Ava,” someone called. I froze, my heart racing as I slowly turned to the direction. A woman slowly walks out of the darkness, a bright smile playing on her lips. “Ava,” she called, reaching for me. I staggered backwards, my hands shaking. “Who are you?” I frowned, my breath heavy. “You have grown so much,” she smiled, trying to reach for me again, her voice filled with tears. “Don't you come close to me,” I snapped looking around wondering if I was in the wrong place.
Ava’s POVThe wooden door creaked open as I walked in, Elena sat near the fire, staring at the fire, clearly lost in thoughts. I took a deep breath and walked inside, I hadn’t seen her since she tried to kill me. Elena looked up when she heard me enter, her blue eyes filled with a mixture of shock and guilt. “Hi,” I smiled, stepping closer to her. “It's been long.”She smiled. “Almost four months.”I chuckled, nodding my head in agreement, my eyes scanning through the room. This was becoming awkward already. “So I heard you were the one taking care of Arthur when he was in coma, thank you very much.”“It was my fault anyway, so you don't need to be grateful,” she forced a smile, her voice laced with sadness. “So can I help you?”“We haven’t talked since…” I paused, unsure how to finish my sentence. “Since that night.”Elena sighed and turned away. “Ava… I was wrong.”“No,” I shook my head. “I really don't resent you for that.”“You have alright to,” she said calmly. “I would be ma
Arthur’s POVDorian’s face was pale, his hands shaking as he grabbed my shoulder. "Arthur, we made a terrible mistake," he whispered, his voice filled with fear.A cold feeling settled in my stomach. "What do you mean?"Dorian took a deep breath and glanced over his shoulder as if expecting something to appear from the darkness. "The dark magic ritual… Something went wrong."I frowned. "What are you talking about? You said the ritual was safe, that everything went as planned."Dorian pressed his lips into a thin line and hesitated. "I thought it was," he admitted, guilt in his voice. “How bad is it?” I frowned. “Dorian,” Charles called from behind, his brows furrowed in curiosity. “What are you doing here?”Dorian turned to Charles, placing his hands in his pocket. “I think we are doomed.”“Doomed?” Amelia shouted from behind.Damn, where did they come from? Seems like there is no secret place in the Luna's house after the war. “What happened with the ritual?” She demanded. “Well,
Arthur’s POVI walked into my room, my head full of thoughts from the meeting. Ava was cradling the little boy in her hands, she quickly rushed to me. “I can never get used to knowing that you have lost your wolf,” she said, forcing a smile as she handed me the child. I chuckled. “At least I can hold my child now.”She nods her head quietly, her face flickering to a mixture of confusion and curiosity. “So what did they talk about in the meeting? Did you tell them?”“Tell me what? That I'm leaving?” I asked, rocking my son in my arms, admiring his tiny face. He reminded me of my grandfather. She swallowed hard. “Both, did you tell them that you are leaving?”I raised my eyes, locking eyes with her. “I didn't tell them…yet.”“Oh,” she muttered, looking disappointed. “Ava, I'm doing this for both of us,” I defended. She shook her head, turning back. "We're not leaving," she said firmly, turning back to me. “We can't.”I let out a slow breath, placing the child on the bed. "Ava—""N
Jennifer’s POVJennifer’s heels made sharp sounds against the cold stone floor as she walked through the dark hallway of the mansion. The torches on the walls flickered, casting shadows that danced as she moved past them, the people walking beside her, murmuring among themselves. “How can she be so calm, our plans are failing, this is so frustrating, I can't believe I actually sided with her,” someone muttered, her voice low but loud enough for Jennifer to hear. Jennifer halted suddenly, turning to her with a cold glare. “What did you say?” She growled. Ever frozen, staggered backwards as Jennifer took a step closer. “I'm asking you what you just said,” Jennifer snapped. The lady flinched, her body shaking in fear. “Well, I was just worried about Arthur's appearance,” she stuttered. Jennifer's lips slowly curled into a smile. “Really?” She scoffed, holding the woman's head firmly. “Are you scared?”The woman swallowed hard, her heart beating loudly. “A little bit,” the woman st
Arthur’s POVThe room was dark except for the flickering light from the torches on the stone walls.Immediately I walked in, the sentinels stood up, bowing their heads in respect, Amelia rushed to me. “Bad news,” she revealed, her face etched with worries.My brows furrowed in curiosity as she leaned closer. “Jennifer took some elders with her.”My jaws fell open. “Those ungrateful assholes,” I cussed, my face flickering to rage. “I should have just killed them immediately.”Charles stood up, walking closer to me, he leaned closer, his voice dropping. “Arthur, none of these people know that you have lost your wolf,” he paused as our eyes locked. “You are their last hope, don't screw this up.”“I still stand by my decision that I don't want my wolf back and I want to step down from the throne and lead a normal life with Ava but I have a feeling that Jennifer wouldn't let that happen.”He nods in agreement. “We go down protecting our home, brother.”“We go down together,” I nodded in ag
Ava’s POVI hurried down the hallway, ignoring the pain in my shoulder, my heart pounding loudly in my chest as I rushed toward my room. Even though I was left battered I had only one concern and that was my son.As I neared the door, I heard his cries from inside. The sound made my chest tighten, I pushed open the door quickly and saw a palace maid rocking him, she looked up at me, her face was filled with worry as she tried to calm him.“My Lady,” she said softly, her face flickered to relief. “He won’t stop crying, I have tried everything but he won't stop,” she revealed.I didn’t waste a second, I took my son from her arms, holding him close, his cries slowly turned to soft whimpers as I rocked him in my hands. His small hands clung to my dress, and I kissed his head, feeling my own tears well up.“Thank you,” I said to the maid. “You would be greatly rewarded for protecting him.”She smiled, waving her hand to disapprove of my offer. “He is the next Alpha of the pack, it's my
Ava POVLooking at the man that’s sleeping beside me, I couldn't help but feel fulfilled.We have our share of heartbreaks and betrayal from people we least expected it from but we overcome every obstacle together.I can’t ask for a better mate.My very own Devil Alpha.FLASHBACK *****My bones were breaking.I let out another throat-itching scream as my right ankle twisted painfully into itself, the pull bringing me down to my knees. My hands were chained to the ground with a padlock at either corner of the dark room, the only light coming in being the bright glow of the full moon.The fucking full moon; yet another one.I hated it and I was using 'hate' very mildly. I dreaded the changes that came with it, one of which being how I chained myself to the ground in the underground basement Penny had built a couple of years ago to avoid going on a rampage and killing some innocent human.My fangs pulled out painfully and I yelled out in pain, knowing it was coming. The resilient urge to...
