All Chapters of Cast Aside, Claimed By The Lycan: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

AVA'S POV“There is nowhere for you to hide. I will hunt you to the ends of the earth,” Evelyn said, a cruel laugh slipping from her lips as she pointed at my stomach. “And that thing inside you? I will start by killing it first, just like you killed your sister’s baby.”Enoch stepped closer, his eyes carrying that same dangerous look I had noticed from the very first day but stupidly ignored. “Don’t worry,” he sneered. “The witches will know exactly what to do with that fetus of yours. And me? I am going to make a fortune selling you.”“Please, don’t touch my baby!” I screamed, struggling with the restraints, my voice filled with so much desperation. “Please! Don’t you dare lay a hand on me!”They didn’t answer. They just laughed. A cold wicked sound that made me feel nothing but fear. They were enjoying this.They are evil. Every last one of them.Evil.“I didn’t kill Betty’s child! I didn’t kill it!” I cried out loud and suddenly…My eyes flew open, almost getting blinded by the br

AVA POVOh, hell no.I shifted in his arms, glaring at the bed like it was some kind of trap. "Nope. Put me on the couch. I am fine there."Lycan Iris was carrying me to the bed. I couldn’t allow that, Absolutely not! That was dangerous territory. It wasn’t just a piece of furniture, it was a statement.Imagine sleeping on the same bed with Lycan Iris, that was a whole new level of intimacy that I was not ready and I will never be ready for. I might be injured, but I wasn’t stupid.He smirked. The kind of smirk that should be illegal. "Oh? You are giving me orders now?" His voice was deep, smooth and even dangerous. "Alright. I won’t drop you on the bed on one condition."I frowned, crossing my arms over my chest. "What condition?""Close your eyes, and I will drop you on the couch. Keep them open, and you stay in my arms." His voice dropped low as he said in a seductive voice “or in my bed..” He suddenly stopped walking, holding me effortlessly like I weighed nothing.Oh.I blinked u

AVA'S POV “What the hell? Did you just push me?" I snapped, as I got back on my feet. My hands were still clenched around my phone, because if I dropped it and cracked the screen on top of all this, I might actually lose my mind.The blonde woman in front of me scoffed, looking at me like I was some insect she accidentally stepped on. "Maybe if you had watched where you were going, this wouldn't have happened," she said with so much attitude.Then, for dramatic effect, she looked down at her dress that was stained with ice cream, like she really examined it before smashing the half-melted ice cream in her hand on the floor like a toddler throwing a tantrum. "Do you even know how much this dress costs?" she demanded.I blinked. Was that rhetorical? Was I supposed to guess?I glanced at the dress. Yeah, it looked expensive. But so what? Accidents happen.Even with her being so pissed and speaking rudely I couldn’t help but admire how stunning she was. Tall, blonde, legs that probably w

Ava’s Pov I flopped onto the massive bed, staring up at the ceiling. My brain was fried. I needed a second to breathe, to figure out my next move.And then, just like that, Betty’s stupid message popped back into my head, all annoying and intrusive, like a song you can’t get rid of.Ugh.Okay. Maybe a cold shower would help shut my brain up for a bit.I was halfway to the bathroom when a knock on the door made me freeze. My heart did this stupid little jump, and for a second, I thought it was Iris again.What now? Did he change his mind about the whole "separate rooms" thing?Shaking off the thought, I cleared my throat. “Come in.”The door opened, but instead of a tall, ridiculously good looking Lycan, two maids walked in, their arms full of shopping bags.“Apologies for the disturbance, ma’am,” one of them said politely. “Mr. Iris asked us to drop these off for you.”“Oh,” I blinked, then let out a small laugh. Wow, look at me, jumping to conclusions. “No problem.”“Would you like

AVA'S POV “I don’t know what you are talking about," I said, forcing my voice to stay steady. But yeah, it totally wobbled. Damn it. Denial was my best bet right now, too bad I was up against a doctor with eyes sharper than a lie detector.She folded her arms, giving me a look that screamed girl, please. "Don’t even try it. I know a pregnant wolf when I see one."My stomach dropped. What the actual hell? She took one look at me and just knew? Was there some kind of glowing neon sign above my head saying breeding in progress?I swallowed hard, my throat suddenly drier than the Sahara. “How… how can you tell?” My voice came out small, like I already knew I had lost this battle.The doctor’s lips curled into a smug little smile. "Ava, I have been doing this for years. I don’t need a test to spot a pregnant wolf."Well, fantastic. So much for my brilliant plan of keeping this under wraps. If she figured it out this fast, how much longer before Iris did?I leaned forward, gripping the exa
