Jayden opened the door after some minutes."What's up?" he asked."Can I come in?" Ava asked."Of course" he opened the door wider for her to come in and she entered the room."What's up?" he asked."I learnt you and Lavender had a fight today. What caused it?" she asked him in return.Jayden rolled his eyes, "I am really not in the mood to talk about it." he told her."It was not a request rather it was an order. I am the Luna of this pack and it is my responsibility to resolve issues in the pack. So you are going to tell me what caused the fight and you are going to tell me now."Jayden sighed and told her what had happened earlier in the garden. He left out the other details.After he had finished speaking, Ava looked him squarely in his eyes."We both know that there is more to this issue. I want you to think what really caused it and how you are going to solve this issue. You are the beta of this pack and you are supposed to lead by example. If the young pack members see you figh
Jayden turned around, "You like me?" he asked."of course I do dumbass, I only proposed a sex relationship because I thought that's what you wanted." Lavender replied."I don't want that" Jayden said. "What do you want then?" Lavender asked."I want you, I want to be with you. I want something serious." Jayden answered.Lavender smiled at him and moved closer to him and pecked him on the cheek."Why do you have to be so stubborn?" he asked him fondly."Do you forgive me now?" Jayden asked."I do. I can't stay mad at you for long." Lavender replied."So can we get back together?" Lavender asked."Yes, you have to promise to tell me if there is a problem and not throw tantrums." Jayden told him."I promise." Jayden said, he reached out and grabbed Lavender by his waist and kissed him.Lavender closed his eyes and relaxed into the kiss. He had missed Jayden so much and he was very happy that they were back together.Jayden broke the kiss. "I should be going back to my room." he told Lave
Ryder frowned at Evena's explanation. "But those are the two most dangerous plants to werewolves. Why would the rogues want them? And what do you mean by skill?" he asked Evena."You are right, those are the two most dangerous plants but when they are bred together to become one plant, the dangerous properties are no longer present. And what I meant by skill is that it isn't easy to perform such a task and I don't think there is anybody in your pack that has such a skill." Evena explained."So what is the plant used for?""Mind control and adrenaline rush.""Huh?" Ryder was confused."The plant can make a werewolf lose all inhibitions and become very aggressive. Under the usage of this plant, even the most timid werewolf becomes aggressive." Evena explained.Ryder stood up and started to pace the room, "Such a plant exists? How do you know about it?""I have heard rumors about it, one of the packs my coven works for happened to capture a rogue who had used it and happened to the crushe

A prison in Crescent Moon pack............Jax sat down and thought about his life. He was once a respected Alpha, even though his pack was backward compared to the other packs. He was still respected.He had his mate who was his best friend, a respected warrior in the pack.Now he had nothing, no pack, no best friend or a mate. Lily had run away with their child and he had no idea where she was.Nobody seemed to believe that he knew nothing about her disappearance. He had been tortured and interrogated severally. He kept insisting that he knew nothing yet he wasn't believed.Jax now knew how Ava had felt back then when everyone had been against her including him. Now the tables were turned and everyone was against him................The next day"Smile" Lavender ordered Jayden who was frowning at Claudia who was moving into the pack today."I don't feel like smiling." Jayden grumbled."Come on smile, you don't want her to think that you are unfriendly, do you?" Lavender asked."I c
"Come on Ryder, don't think like that. Lavender is just being a good friend, I don't think he likes her that way." Ava tried to dissuade Ryder."Come on Ava, I think she is his mate and he doesn't want to tell us till they get to know each other." Ryder insisted."I have something to do." Jayden said hurriedly and left.Ryder looked at him as he left in confusion. "Whats wrong with him?" he asked Ava."I have no idea." Ava answered.Claudia came up to them, "Greetings Alpha and Luna." she said respectfully."How are you doing Claudia?" Ryder asked."I am doing okay, I just wanted to say thanks for honoring my request." Claudia said."It's okay, I am glad I could be of help. Besides, Lavender wants you here and he vouched for you." Ryder replied."That's very nice of him, I should thank him later." Claudia said with a sweet smile."You should make him pasta and meatballs, it's his favorite." Ryder told her in a conspiratorial whisper."I will be sure to do that Alpha." Claudia replied,
FIREBLOOD PACK"Ryder, we sent her away. and cut off all contact for her safety, we can't contact her, we are still being watched by the council. The best thing we can do for her now is to trust in your aunt and your uncle and have trust in her too." Ava told Ryder comfortingly as she stroked his hair."Ava, do you think I failed my family?" Ryder asked her."Of course not, why would you think such a thing?""Well I was the reason my younger brother ran away from home as a teenager and now my pregnant younger sister is away from home and I don't know where she is and how she is.""Ryder, you did the best you could do and I am sure Lavender and Lily know that." Ava replied him.Ryder smiled, Ava always knew how to reassure him anytime he felt this way."Thanks for always knowing the right things to say. I love you so much Ava.""I love you too Ryder." she stood up and pulled him up as well."Let's go eat lunch." she told him, he nodded and allowed himself to be pulled away by her.THRE
CREEKWOOD PACKJax looked at himself in the mirror, he looked very different from how he looked before everything started. He had lost a lot of weight from his time in prison and his eyes looked haunted. Jax had changed and he knew deep in his soul that he had changed, he could only hope that he would be able to defend his pack and make them proud once more.There was a slight knock on the door."Come in" he answered.Dean walked in, he glanced at Jax worriedly, his Alpha looked so tired, he wished that he would be able to help Jax in a way that would be beneficial to him."Yes?" Jax prompted him after seeing him remain silent."The pack is ready for you Alpha." Dean told him."Thanks, let's go." Jax replied."Uhm shouldn't you eat something first, you look a bit weak." Dean said, worry apparent in his tone."I will be fine Dean, don't worry too much about me." Jax said with a smile on his face to ease Dean's worry."If you say so Alpha." Dean replied. "Let's go meet the pack." Jax s
A couple of months later "Push! Come on Lily you can do this." The midwife urged Lily. Lily tried her best but the pain was too much, it felt like her whole body was being torn up from inside."Lily, you can do this, I know that you can do this." her aunt pleaded with her.Lily groaned in pain as she tried to push the baby out. She was losing strength but she had to be brave for her innocent baby.In all her life, whenever Lily thought of when she would give birth to her first child, she had never imagined that she would be alone, hated by her mate, banished from her pack and family.She was currently leaving with some human relatives and she would have to live as one and train her child as one too.She grit her teeth as she pushed the baby out.The sound of the baby cries filled the room."It's a boy!" the midwife announced as she lifted the baby up.Lily sat up in bed, already she could feel her injuries healing and the pain fading away.The midwife handed her the baby, she cuddle
Ryder went up to Ava and kissed her on her neck and wrapped his hand around her waist.Ava turned around and hugged him."I am so sorry." she apologized again to him."I am even more sorry, I shouldn't have gone angry on you. It wasn't your fault at all."Ava leaned up and kissed him."I love you Ryder.""I love you too Ava.""We are sorry too Ryder." Jayden and Lavender apologized."It's okay, I forgive you too. But we are going to sit and talk more about the relationship between you two.""Lets eat breakfast now, can we?" Evena asked.They all sat down to eat breakfast.As they were eating a sentry came into the room."Alpha, miss Lily is outside and she seeks an audience."They all stood up in shock, "Lily?"They went outside to meet her."How dare you show your face around here?" Ryder asked."Calm down Ryder. I came because you are all in danger.""What do you mean by that?" Ava asked.Lily told them everything about Claudia and what she was planning. Unknown to Claudia, Lily did
Evena opened the door quickly and ushered Ava inside the room."please tell me you are joking." he told Ava. "I wish I was" Ava replied. She narrated everything that had happened that night to Evena."Wait a minute, Lavender and Jayden are seeing each other?" Evena asked."really? That's what you are concerned about?" Ava asked."I am just shocked, I never knew grumpy Jayden had it in him" Evena defended himself."Well he does and that's not the matter at hand now, Ryder knows that you are here and he knows about the deal you made with my aunt, I wonder the plan he has cooked up already in his anger." Ava said worriedly."where is he now?" "I have no idea, he walked out on us and said he needed space""OK, first thing tomorrow, we will go back together and hopefully I would be able to talk sense into him."Ava sighed in relief."He is very mad at you, isn't he?" Evena asked."Yes, he looked so disappointed in me too.""Don't worry, I will make sure he knows that you didn't keep it
"What the fuck is going on here?" Ryder asked shocked.Lavender and Jayden separated from each other, very shocked to see Ryder home."Ryder, you are back?" Jayden stuttered in alarm."Yes, I am back. What the hell is going on here?" Ryder asked."Uhmm Ryder, I think you should calm down a bit." Ava tried to calm Ryder down. Ryder spun around to look at her with incredous eyes. "I should calm down? I came back home to meet my little brother being fucked by my close friend and Beta and you expect me to be calm?" he asked her. He turned around to look at Jayden."When did this even start? As far as I know you aren't gay? Or have you been deceiving me all along?" he asked Jayden. Jayden sighed in despair, this was the exact reason, he had refused to be with Lavender. He knew Ryder would be furious and right now seeing Ryder's face, he knew that Ryder was beyond reason at the moment. Ryder looked at Lavender. "Do you care to tell me when this started? Was it when you came back home o
Ryder stared as Reni was taken away. He recognized Reni as Evena's apprentice. How did Reni's apprentice find his way to Salvatore. He wanted to talk to him about Evena but he was already taken away by the king."Babe did you know that Reni was here?" Ryder asked Ava."That guy? Not at all. Do you know him?" Ava asked feigning ignorance."He is Evena's apprentice . I wonder what he is doing here, I also wonder if he knows where Evena is." Ryder asked."Well he has already been taken by the king, I doubt there is a way you can talk to him."The queen came to them. "I am so sorry your first ball went this way." she apologized to them."It's okay." Ava answered as she held her hands to comfort her."You have to leave now, the ball is over. Dreya will take you guys home, your father is coming along with you guys.""My father?""Yes, he said he would be staying in Fireblood for a while now.""Okay, we will wait for him." Ava replied."Take care of yourself dear.""I will Aunt, take care of
The king turned to Ava. "Hello granddaughter." he said to her."Hello to you too." Ava replied."My apologies for just meeting you. I had no idea that you were still alive.""That's because you ordered for my death." Ava replied. She had gotten over her fear and could speak to him freely now.The king chuckled at her reply."I can see that you are still angry with me. The reason I ordered for you to be killed was because I doubted that you would survive. Your twin brother had already died. You have to understand something Ava, no werewolf vampire hybrid has ever survived."Ava looked at him warily, she had no idea what to feel towards him."So I am told you have started taking blood and your fangs are out, have you gained any special abilities yet?" he asked Ava."None that I know of." she replied."Your mother Freya was very powerful. She had the ability to control minds, she could control a full city to do her bidding. I wonder if you have the same power?" the king said as he looked
"Where is the secret stash?" Claudia asked eagerly."I buried it beneath the ground behind the cell where the shadow Wolves are.""Okay. I will find them, just give me the contact of the pack.""I will give you their number but you have to promise me one thing, no harm will come to anyone in the pack.""I promise you, no harm shall come to any of them.""Okay." Lily picked up a piece of paper and wrote the number on it. She then handed it to Claudia. Claudia smiled as she took it, all her plans were slowly coming up. The funniest thing was that the players had no idea that they were just pawns in her game.She went back to stir the food on the fire..............SALVATOREThe ball was going on, and the party was in full swing. Everyone looked at Ava and Ryder curiously. Some of them had heard little snippets about Ava's identity and they were curious to know her history.Ava felt nervous about all the stares. She didn't know how to behave.At that moment, her Aunt came to her."The
