Avalyn

"Are you excited?" Sofiya asked.

I looked at myself in the mirror. She had insisted that I put on a white dress because it was a sacred colour for us. Other than that, my appearance was my choice. I had left my hair down, kept my face free of any makeup, save lip balm, and worn brown sandals.

While I was getting ready, I had been excited. Now, my stomach was churning. I was nervous and I was dreading what was to come. I knew that shifting into your wolf was a painful experience. And it would be more painful for me because I was late. I could even die. Tonight could very well be my last night. My last night in Jivan. My last night with Master.

I released a breath. I wasn't ready for that. Tonight couldn't be my last anything. I had to survive. I had to live. And I needed to be strong for that. I needed to push aside these nerves and embrace what was about to happen. It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that I had been robbed of. I was getting a do-over and I should have

    Avalyn I saw a man arrive with Vladimir and Sofiya by his side. He had dark mahogany skin and shoulder-length dreadlocks. He had a large and muscular frame with tattoos covering his left arm. And his intense gaze was locked on me as he walked towards us. If this had happened to happen before I shifted and mated, I was sure I would have cowered behind Nikolai. But at that moment, for some reason, I stood with my head high and met his gaze head-on. "Love, I would like you to meet Lord Rhazien of Kingdom Mozog," Nikolai said when the three of them were standing in front of us. "Rhazien, meet my lovely mate, Avalyn." He smiled as he introduced me and shook hands with the man. "It is my pleasure to meet you, Luna Avalyn," he said as he bowed in front of us. I did not sense any negative energy from his side or from Nikolai so I took it as a good sign and smiled back at him. "It is a pleasure to meet you too, Lord Rhazien." "Please, call me Rhazien." He smiled and then looked at Nikolai

    Avalyn "What if the kids do not like either of them?" I asked nervously. I had tried my best to pick the most suitable parents for them but something inside me said that it wasn't enough. "They will like them," he replied. He looked confident but I somehow knew he was worried about it as well. "I hope so. I don't want to keep them with someone they don't like," I told him. During the after-party, I had met the kids and talked to them. They didn't talk much and were shy at first, but they opened up a little. I was happy about that. They deserved happiness. "Which is why they have a choice. You did a great job at selecting the couples, Moya Lyubov. Don't worry," he said soothingly as he pulled into the driveway of the packhouse. I didn’t think I would ever get used to its glory. We both walked inside hand in hand as several pack members bowed to us. I smiled at the familiar faces. I had mingled with a lot of them during the party. When we entered the living room, we saw Adrian and

    Avalyn He pulled over at a quaint restaurant and all of us filed out. I had requested him to take the kids with us for dinner and he gladly accepted. We were quickly ushered in by one of the staff members and we gave them our order. "What would you two like to have?" I asked the kids. They just shrugged. "Please get the same for them as well," I told the waiter. "Of course, thank you, Alpha, Luna." The waiter bowed and left us alone. "Did you like this couple?" I asked them. "Yeah," they said in unison but Vanessa sounded unsure. "What happened, Vanessa?" It was Nikolai who asked the question. "I saw someone," she whispered. A shudder ran through her little body. "Who?" growled Nikolai. Vanessa flinched back a little at his voice and I placed a hand over Nikolai's bicep to calm him. He was already very protective of the kids. "I don't know. But he was fa-Alpha's fwiend. He came to the pack," Vanessa said in a small voice and her brother looked at her questioningly. She glanc

    Nikolai I opened my eyes to see Ava's head on my chest and her arm around my waist. I smiled. I caressed her hair and saw it turn silver under my touch. The reason was a mystery, but it didn't bother me much. I wanted to know the reason why, but deep down I knew it wasn't something to be worried about. It wasn't anything bad. Nothing involving her could be bad. I slowly slipped out from under her and got off the bed. I peeled off the covers and saw goosebumps rise on her naked skin. Smirking, I kissed my way up her legs to her inner thighs and saw her twitch. Her eyes were shut but her heart was beating faster. I kissed her already wet core and was gifted with a small moan. I smirked wider. She tried to close her legs but I held them apart. Then, I dug into my breakfast. I lapped up her juices before sucking at her pussy. Her back arched off the bed and she woke up with a lust-filled moan. I tightened my hold on her thighs so she couldn’t move. Her eyes widened when she saw me.

    Avalyn It was evening and I was making sure that that the dinner was prepared when Dimitri strolled in and picked up a banana from the fruit basket. "Do you know where Nikolai is?" I asked him. I hadn't seen him around or heard from him yet. I was worried. He looked confused. "Not really. He didn't show up for a meeting either. I thought he was with you." He frowned and then his eyes fogged over as if he was mind-linking. A second later, Andrei materialised in the kitchen. "Have you seen Nikolai?" Dimitri asked him. "No. Wasn't he with you?" The words were like a punch to my gut. "We just… got in a fight this afternoon," I murmured. "He left to get some fresh air." "Avalyn, we have visitors," Sofiya said through the mind link. She sounded worried. "The front gate." I immediately rushed out and the men followed. I met Sofiya and Vladimir at the front gate and saw four men approaching. I pulled my wolf forward to judge them. They were vampires and Sof was wary of them, but she wa

    Avalyn "You did good, my child," a sweet voice told me. I turned around to see the same blue-eyed and white-haired lady smiling at me. I envied how she was always so at peace. "Don't worry, Avalyn. I am you. You will soon find your own peace too," she said with a soft smile. How did she know what I was thinking? "That's because we are the same. I can hear your thoughts," she replied. "I am so proud of you, Avalyn. You are slowly becoming what you are destined to be. It's time to wake up now. It's time to fulfil your duties. Your people have arrived. They need you." What I am destined to be? What does that mean? And people? Who was she talking about? "You'll know soon," she said. "Save Nikolai." "Lead them all to victory." "Lighten the darkness." "The time is coming." Then she faded away, just like last time. Slowly, and then all at once. My eyes fluttered open and I saw Nikolai sitting on the bed, his hand resting on the top of my head, as if he was caressing it before he

  • The Lycan King   31. A walk on the beach

    Nikolai Ava invited the vampires to stay the night, but they politely declined, informing her that they had rented a hotel in the nearby human town. I knew she was worried, but I told her to let them be. More than being worried about them, I knew she was worried about the humans, but all of them clearly had their own slaves. When you were a high ranker, having slaves was more like a status symbol than a necessity. I took Ava down to the beach after that. We had lots to discuss. "Take off your sandals," I told her as I removed my own. She smiled widely as she quickly did as I said. I placed them on a rock before holding her hand. We took off for a walk along the shore. "Let's talk about you first. I know we haven't done that much since you shifted," I told her. "How do you feel, Love?" "I feel... alive." She looked up at me with a sweet smile. It was true. I could feel the strength flowing through her now. Her eyes glowed with more happiness than I had ever seen and there was just

    Avalyn "Let me introduce you to your new family." I smiled at both of them and then looked at Sofiya, Vladimir, Dimitri, and Andrei. They all had welcoming smiles on their faces. When Nikolai had informed them that Adrian and Vanessa would be living there now, they were all surprised. Apparently, Nikolai wasn't the type to take the responsibility of raising children. Until now. "That's uncle Vladimir and aunt Sofiya. This is uncle Dimitri and uncle Andrei," I introduced them. As expected, both of them were too shy to say anything except flashing smiles towards whoever I introduced. "And what's the name of her child?" Adrian frowned as he pointed at Sofiya. Sofiya frowned back and looked down to her stomach, her hand coming down over her belly. "I told you I look fat in this dress," she grumbled to Vladimir and elbowed him in his stomach, which made him wince. "Dammit, woman." "She isn't pregnant Adrian." I bit back my smile at the couple's banter. "But she is." He frowned and to

    Avalyn 3 months later. "You look ravishingly beautiful, Moya Lyubov." Nik leaned against a column and looked at me through the mirror in front of us. I had worn an ivory-coloured gown with intricate golden patterns on the top bodice that hugged my figure. The bottom part of the dress puffed out a little, ending in a long trail to give it more of a princess-y look. The dress was beautiful and so was the perfectly done hair and makeup. Tessa helped me put on a red mantle with delicate white-and-gold handwork that went amazingly with my dress. Grinning at him through the mirror, I turned around and walked to him. "You look extremely handsome as well." Nikolai was wearing a charcoal grey tuxedo with a more masculine version of my mantle. It went well with his tuxedo. Tessa and another slave stepped forward with a cushion each in hand. On them sat the crowns that we had received in Mozog. This was the true symbol that this pack was not just for wolves but for vampires as well. Nikolai

    Avalyn A deep pit formed in my belly the moment we stepped in. I was watching my step when I entered so I saw a line of green grass pass from under my feet. It started extending and covering the large expanse of void in front of us. A gasp left my mouth when I saw acres and acres of land in front of us, covered in neatly trimmed, lively green grass. And on that grass were well-groomed and beautiful gardens, covering the entire land. The cold weather changed and the sun shined more brightly. It was almost as if... as if it was spring. How was this possible? The temperature didn't feel like it was negative-something Celsius, but almost as if it was twenty degrees. The temperature I thought was perfect. My heart thudded. Was this real? Or was I imagining it? Nik and I continued walking forward. Suddenly, a line slipped from beneath our feet and a white cobble-stoned path followed the line and created a straight path for us, from the middle of the gardens, up to the top of the mount

    Nikolai "Are you sure you want to keep going?" Ava asked wearily. After the... incident earlier, we decided it would be best for us to stay together and walk carefully instead of running or jogging. "Very," I replied, gripping her soft hand tighter. "Whatever is up there, it doesn't want us here." Her sides brushed mine. I was enjoying keeping her on this short leash. "And that's too bad for them because that is my land," I replied. "And if whatever is up there doesn't want us there, that means there is something important there that needs protection." I looked straight ahead and kept a steady pace, determined to make it to the top. "And I intend to find out what that is." "But what if we are better off keeping things the way they are? I'm not sure if I like this, Nikolai. This place is giving me weird vibes." She stepped closer to me. "My instincts tell me that I need to go up. They have been telling me that for a while," I told her truthfully. "If you are not comfortable, I ca

    Avalyn When I woke up the next morning, Nik was already gone. I looked at the clock and realized it was nine a.m. Of course, he was gone. I got out of bed and stretched my limbs, a huge smile gracing my features. Last night had been... amazing. It was hands down one of our most memorable nights. I went to the washroom and took a quick, warm shower, soothing my sore muscles. Life was good. When I stepped out, I saw Tessa in the room with a pile of clothes in her hand. "For you, Mistress." "Thank you, Tessa." I grinned. I was in a very good mood that morning. "You're very welcome, Mistress. I'll go make your breakfast. Do you need anything?" She looked very worried. "Why are you so worried?" I took off my bathrobe and started putting the clothes she had got me. "I was very scared for you last night, Mistress." Deep concern was etched on her features. "I don't ever want you to have to go through pain. Especially under the hands of the man you love so much!" She whispered the last

    Nikolai Ava's eyes closed and I tightened my hold on her waist and her legs. "He is yours to kill." I looked at Javier, jutting my chin towards Maggot before I left the cottage with my brave mate in my arms. I was in awe of her strength. I knew she would come at least once before the eight days were up. But she still managed to shock me with the strength that she carried inside her. All of us were shocked. I saw something in her eyes that day that made me realize something. I felt like I had been enlightened. She was done with her past now. She was done being the submissive, meek Avalyn she had been moulded into. Ava had broken out of that enclosure and was ready to metamorphose into the strong, confident and brilliant woman who would lead this world by my side. I just hoped she recognized that too and would listen to me with an open mind this time around. Halfway on our way to the cottage we were staying Ava's eyes fluttered open. Her hair turned back to brown and her eyes were b

  • The Lycan King   88. Avenging Angel

    Avalyn My first walk with Papa seemed ages ago. All of us had gotten very busy after that. We hardly saw each other. Especially Nik and I. But we developed a schedule. He would wake me up in the morning with either breakfast in bed and then we would go for a short run around the pack, or we would engage in early morning sex before a quick breakfast and then we would part ways. The first order we issued as the Alpha and Luna of the Montana Pack was to break down the wall on which the heads of wolves hung. Those heads were hung on Emilio's orders as a reminder to the pack about what would happen to them if they upset him in any way. The heads were finally taken down and were lit on pyres by their friends and family. I hoped that those wolves finally attained peace on the other side of the Moon. Max had been given the task of going through the pack’s bank accounts for illegal businesses and suspicious activities. Max's friend Daniel was great with numbers and knew trustworthy people w

    Avalyn I saw our entire family waiting for us, and our entire pack standing behind them, looking at us with a reverent gaze. Nik was quick to stand in front of me and hide me from their gaze. Our clothes had burned off in the fire so I was naked. And Nik was being overprotective. I loved it. I loved him. And I wanted him. Desperately. I bit down on my lip. His eyes darkened. "Don't." He pulled my lip out and then groaned. "You're naked, Love." He closed his eyes, struggling hard to control himself in front of everyone. "I'm going to fuck you so hard after all this." I nodded, gulping. "I'll hold you to your promise." I had missed him. And then two slaves came in, carrying a dress for me and a pair of shorts for Nik. We both quickly got dressed before Nik finally relaxed and stood beside me. "The series of unfortunate events that have been happening since last night have happened because of one spiteful person who hated vampires — Mary. She was the one who lit the packhouse on fi

    Avalyn My eyes lost sight of Papa and Nik. Why did he run away? Did he not like me? Did he think of me as a bad person? It didn't make sense. It hurt. Watching him run away from me hurt. Why did he do it? I couldn't think of a single reason why he would be upset with me. Maybe that day... when we were attacked... if I hadn't been there, and he didn't have to defend himself and me, he wouldn't have been kept as a captive in the dungeon. If it wasn't for me, he could have lived as an Alpha with Mama. And then it clicked, he resented me because I killed Mama. My heart dropped. Yes, that was it. It had to be it. My vision was obstructed by a chest. I looked up and saw Dimitri. "Avalyn, your nose is bleeding." Deep concern was etched on his face. My hand immediately came up to touch my nostril and sure enough, it was bloody. I wiped it all away. "It's probably nothing," I muttered. I didn't care about myself. I wanted to talk to Papa and beg for his forgiveness. "Or maybe it is somet
