Ava Chapter 224
Ava stayed back as the rest of the wolves advanced. Caleb had discovered a stash of clothes inside a hollow in one of the trees, common for when wolves had to shift and rejoin the human population, so these hunters had likely met the wolves in this spot before. They’d met to plan the attack on her father or her kidnapping—one or the other. The scents on them were unfamiliar, but she could smell the same on the wolves who’d walked into one of the dilapidated cabins. Wolf scents mingled with humans among the damp and mould of the abandoned cabins. Focusing on a single one, she confirmed what Caled said. Eight people. And seven of them were about to die.She had seen her brothers in their wolf forms several times, but this was the first time she’d seen them so focused as they inched closer to the forest’s edge. Pride bubbled up inside her briefly before she looked away and focused her attention on their rear.She was just the lookout. She would not get in their way.Nyx whimpered aga
Ava Chapter 223
There were beds in the staff break rooms near the back of the building that Zeke hadn’t noticed the first time he was there. He didn’t pay much attention to his surroundings now either as he kept his arm around Ava’s shoulders, just processing.Following Ava through the forest had been...Shit, he didn’t know what to think. She’d been right in front of him, yet not quite present. And that hint of magic in the air... It had rippled over his skin like the Council magic did, pulling at him. He had responded to it as if he had no choice, following its call. Even now, he felt it still simmering under his skin.Like when he’d kissed Ava before they found out Alpha Roland was missing. Nate opened one of the doors, revealing two beds against the wall on both sides, and stepped aside. “Caleb is just upset. I’ll speak to him. You guys should rest. I’ll bring some food,” Nate said.Ava walked in first and slumped onto one of the beds.“I’m not hungry,” she mumbled. Nate met his gaze, clearly
Ava Chapter 222
Nothing made sense. Ava’s vision switched from day to night in an instant. The nightmare always stopped when the beast—when she—brutally ended those men, but now it continued, forcing her to follow the path she saw in her head, seeing bloody little hands pushing away the shrubs and watching the bloody bare feet stepping over sharp rocks and fallen trees.Watching the nightmare play out in real life.Retracing the steps she took over a decade before.And Nyx was close, her emotions heightened, revealing everything through her eyes.Heart pounding in her chest, she looked back at the man following behind her, watching her closely. One second, he stood there quietly, his eyes blood red, glowing in moonlight. The next second, the sun was shining, and the whimpering cries from her six-year-old self echoed as she looked back to where she had come from. Where the evil men lay in pieces.Time lost all meaning. As the terrain evened out and they left the sounds of the sleepy town far behind t
Ava Chapter 221
Human blood still scented the air hours after the fight. It was everywhere. On the narrow path up the mountain. On the cold, unyielding side of the mountain. Over the trees, bushes and dead leaves on the ground. Silver bullet casings and broken silver weapons were scattered on the forest floor. Sharp lengths of twine were tied between tree trunks like traps, and blood dripped from them. There was something else on it besides that metallic scent, something spicy and woodsy, and very faint.Putting her nose closer to the twine, she started to inhale. A second later, strong arms circled her chest and wrenched her away.“Don’t touch that. Wolfsbane,” Zeke said.Of course. She had never been around it, but she was sure the other wolves in the pack were taught how to detect it from the moment they shifted. It was deadly to wolves, poisoning their systems as quickly as silver. A chill rushed down her spine at how close she’d come to making a rookie mistake.Stepping out of Zeke’s arms, she l
Ava Chapter 220
‘Let’s at least find out what happened to the Moonvalley Alpha first,’ Zeke mindlinked Ava. ‘There are too many humans here.’Ava’s apprehension was obvious through their bond, but so were her rage and fear. Tension coiled up in his stomach. Whenever he got like this, he always pulled the silver chains out for Derek and Myles to restrain him. But now, they were freely running near humans. Even if it was a small town, people would notice if half of them got wiped out by raging beasts.‘I’ve only been this far from our territory once, and Dad didn’t even let me get out of the car. I don’t even know where this diner is, so we need to speak to Nate.’It was clear from her tone that she didn’t like that, but some of the tension uncoiled because she wasn’t about to burrow through innocent people in town without a plan.The sun was setting when they stopped near the forest’s edge. Zeke followed Ava to a small wooden cabin, where she shifted without much regard to the humans he sensed close to
Ava Chapter 219
The Silver Daggers. A bunch of fucking neanderthals who’d dwindled their numbers even before the Council had formed to take them down. Probably the only good thing the Council had done.Psychopaths on the same level as Hansson, with their well-documented kills and torture methods. And they had somehow dug up enough information on his mate to have a recent photo of her and also know which orphanage she’d been at before being adopted. In which world was that the kind of information someone kept to themselves?Shadow growled in his head, pissed off with Ava’s family for the first time since meeting Roland. ‘Let’s go hunt them down,’ he ordered. Oh, that was a given. The only question was how to make Ava go back home. Dealing with Hansson together was one thing. They had been trapped at the academy and had no other options. But he would not willingly let Ava face another asshole like Hansson. He would not risk her life. “Answer me,” Ava said, stepping closer to Nate.“No, I don’t thin
Ava Chapter 218
Ava glared at her brothers after she pulled a T-shirt over her head. The boys had accepted shorts and were already eating the bowls of a meat and vegetable stew that they had been offered. How could they even eat at a time like this? She took her place beside Zeke, and the older woman who’d given her the clothes gave her a bowl, too. She recognised her as the Luna immediately. Audrey had come forward before Nate could tell her anything about the secret they were keeping.When her father first brought her to visit the Moonvalley Pack, she was impressed that the pack's protection fell on all their shoulders equally despite being so traditional in other roles. Her father said Luna Audrey could kick ass as hard as Alpha Barrett.“I’m sorry, Luna. I don’t think I can eat right now,” she said, smiling at the woman.“Your wolf needs to eat,” Luna Audrey said, pushing the bowl towards her. “It’s true, isn’t it? You shifted?”Her reputation as the only human in the Mystic River territory had sp
Ava Chapter 217
The air was sharper, and his eyes picked up the smallest grain of soil—as impossible as that seemed. He could hear the smallest critters scurrying under the decomposing matter on the forest floor. His hind legs launched him easily over shrubs and fallen trees while the wind rushed past his face with an almost overwhelming force.His heart pumped with the surge of adrenaline, and below that, the strange, unfamiliar energy. What the hell was this? Nyx hadn’t stopped running since they shifted when they reached the forest. Keeping close behind her, Shadow followed the almost non-existent trail. Even with his stronger senses, Alpha Morgan’s scent wasn’t there at all. And the warriors he’d taken with him must have been some of his best men because they’d hardly left a trail.He’d expected Nyx to flounder a few times because she was still new, but the other half of him hadn’t lost the trail even once. Not that he expected anything different. Even without the strange boost they seemed to h
Ava Chapter 216
No. No, no, no.Her fault. Why the hell hadn’t she trusted herself?Ava was out of the door before anyone could stop her. The guards had already gathered in the front yard, discussing what was happening. “...they’ve brought the bodies to the morgue. Can’t recognise them...”“...might be the same rogues that attacked the Moonvalley pack...”“...they didn’t make it there, so we still don’t know what’s going on over there...”Her fault.It was Emily and Dexter all over again.She shouldn’t have stayed in the background when she knew she was strong enough to help.“Ava,” Caleb called out as he followed her down the front steps. “I’ve already organised the search party. The trackers are already out there, and I’m going to join them. Stay here and—”“Even now, you’re trying to stop me?” she asked, facing her brothers.“It’s not safe—”“Then tell me why the hell you’ve kept me inside when you know I can help?” she growled.Caleb didn’t look away from her, but Nate, Alex, and Nick glanced a
