Ava's POV

Dinner was a quiet affair.

True to her words, the head maid made Dravin come down for dinner. He looked sullen at the fact that he was forced downstairs and made a point to stare me down with as much disgust as he could possibly muster without words.

All of that was forgotten when I saw what we were having for dinner, though.

A full-course meal that had more meat than I'd seen my whole life.

Chicken, beef, turkey, pork, venison, just name it.

Of course, I knew nothing of the different types of meat except chicken and beef—I used to prepare them for Vera and Mother—it took the head maid presenting every dish verbally to identify them.

I didn't care about any of it.

All I saw was meat. A lot more than I've ever been allowed to taste. Even when I cooked for Mother and Vera, they almost never let me taste it. Fruits made up most of my diet.

I tore into the food with a vengeance. It tasted heavenly against my tongue. Every bit of it was more flavor than I've ever had, and I jus

  • COME BACK OF THE SCARFACE PRINCESS    Uninvited Yet Unstoppable

    Dravin's POV "I still can't believe we didn't know this," Soren said thoughtfully as he tapped his feet rhythmically on the floor of my office. "I also think it's your fault for not checking in all the years until you claimed her."I resisted the urge to roll my eyes as I perused through a document.It's been a week since the ritual, and Soren still hasn't gotten past the fact that Elora was scarred, fat, and ugly. He always brought it up whenever we saw her, which, for some reason, has been every day for the last three days."You could have checked," I said with evident boredom in my voice. "You are in charge of intelligence.""I'm not the one getting mated to her," he argued.I looked up at him for a few seconds, but he wasn't even looking at me. He was staring at the ceiling like there was something of interest up there.Turning back to my work, I decided it wasn't worth it to reply."It's funny, but I still like her," Soren laughed. "She seems to know how to get on your bad side

  • COME BACK OF THE SCARFACE PRINCESS    More Than A Maid

    Ava's POV I was scared.Even as I held my ground, staring into those black and silver eyes, I was terrified, and I knew it. If looks could kill, I was sure Dravin would have killed me by now. His glare was so intense that I almost instinctively took a step back. But I didn't. If I backed down now, then I was unsure if I could ever muster up the courage to do this again. The lingering confidence I could feel from Elora's fading personality was the only thing I could greedily latch on to. It was all that helped me stand my ground. The head maid’s words, along with Lyanna's lecture, inspired me as well, and I wasn't going to let all of that go to waste by being a coward now. "Are you trying to dupe me?" he asked, the anger still evident in his tone. I blinked in surprise at that. Of all the things I expected him to say, that was the least. "You want to use the budget as an excuse to run away with a chunk of my money, don't you?" His eyes were glowing now. A fierce glow that ha

  • COME BACK OF THE SCARFACE PRINCESS    Ghosts That Won't Die

    Vera's POV"Fûck!" I hissed as I tossed the mug I was holding at the wall, spilling its contents and shattering it on the wall.It was a bare second until my mother came running into the room with a frown."What's going on, Vera?" Her voice was quite calm but annoyed as her alarm quickly died down. "Ava is no longer here to clean up your mess. The workers won't be able to get that stain off the wall.""Then, have them fucking repaint it!" I spat as I let myself flop back on my bed."What's wrong?" Mother sighed as she moved to sit beside me. "You've been in quite a terrible mood lately.""Kael is still trying to postpone the announcement that I am his Luna," I complained. "Even worse, he's trying to keep our relationship even more private."I couldn't see her eyes, but her sigh told me all I needed to know about what she thought of my complaint.She thinks I'm throwing a tantrum.This is why I don't enjoy telling her about my problems."He must have a good reason," she said eventually

  • COME BACK OF THE SCARFACE PRINCESS    Mistress Meets Luna

    Dravin's POV Things are getting a little annoying.I stared at the subtle face-off going on in my office right now and couldn't help but sigh.A knock drew all of our attention, and Soren walked in."Alpha, I—"He paused at the sight I have been forced to watch for the past hour now.Seated in the living room section of my office were two ladies staring at each other from the farthest ends of the adjacent couches.One was a chubby, scarred lady, and the other a beauty that can be barely quantified. There are only a few women that I've recognized as a masterpiece of the goddess, considering my high standards, and she was one of them.Soren took a second to stare at me with a question in his eyes.When he got nothing, he cleared his throat uncomfortably."Um, I'll be back later, Alpha."He was out of the door before I could say a word of protest.That bastârd.Both women watched the door for a few seconds even after Soren left, and then turned their attention to each other—one with a c

  • COME BACK OF THE SCARFACE PRINCESS    The Game Of Glares And Wills

    Ava's POV The silence in the room was, for lack of a better word, deafening.One could almost hear a pin drop.We would most likely have heard it anyway, since our hearing is quite advanced, but the point was that it was deathly silent in that office.I could feel Dravin's eyes on me. They seemed to almost burn, probing at me to stare back into them. I couldn't tell if he was staring or glaring because I refused to look at him.I kept my eyes trained on this lady, Camilla. A deadpan, expressionless look on my face and my chin raised at a slightly higher angle than normal so that I could stare down at her. So that she could see my eyes looking down and meeting hers.A trick I learned in the short time I knew Elora's father. The man's head was always angled to look down at everyone around him, regardless of their height. The only time I ever saw him angle his head slightly downward was when Dravin came to claim me.Good thing this Camilla isn't taller than me. That would have been awkw

  • COME BACK OF THE SCARFACE PRINCESS    Of Curses And Concern

    Dravin's POV"Luna!" Soren yelled as he caught Elora and shook her worriedly. I was beside him in a second, staring at her as I tried to decipher if she was playing her games with me. "She's not pretending, Alpha!" Soren hissed. "Her pulse is getting weaker!" I nodded in response, and I swooped her from Soren's arms and headed out of the door. "Call the doctor, Soren.""Alpha?" Camilla said as I approached the door."Open the door," I ordered as I drew closer."What?" "Open the fucking door, Camilla," I repeated, my voice calm but threatening. I made my way down the hallway, across the living room, and hall to a hallway on the other side of the room. "Luna?" I heard Lyanna's voice call as we approached the entrance of the hallway. She was beside me in a second. "What happened to her, Alpha?""I don't know," I replied as we reached her bedroom door. "She just fell.""It might have something to do with her weight?" Camilla said, her voice mocking.From the corner of my eye, I s

  • COME BACK OF THE SCARFACE PRINCESS    The Pain I Bear

    Ava's POV My world was spinning, and not in a good way.Was there even a good way to have your world literally spinning?I couldn’t tell.I couldn’t think.I could hear voices.I could hear a name.But not my name."Ava!"I was jolted awake by the sound of my name.Opening my eyes, I met the emerald eyes of Vera. She had a smile playing on her lips.I knew that smile all too well.A mischievous smile.She was thinking of something vile."Why are you lying there like an idiot?" she asked, still smiling. "Stand up."I obeyed.I tried standing but quickly realized it was impossible. I was lying on a bed of jagged thorns. They had bitten so deep into my skin that with the protruding tips all over, they found a hold inside my flesh, never letting go.I screamed in pain.I howled at the top of my lungs.This was going to kill me.The thorns were covered in my blood."What did you do to me, Vera?"

  • COME BACK OF THE SCARFACE PRINCESS    Eyes That Command

    Dravin's POV A knock on my office roused both me and Soren from the documents we were working on.I was slowly beginning to realize that shutting myself off from the world for the last two decades was a mistake.The world had moved on without me, and they did that so quickly.After the death of my Luna and Elora’s betrothal to me, I saw no reason to involve myself with the world anymore.I didn't break any alliances and let them use my name as much as they wanted, but I stayed out of the public eye.

  • COME BACK OF THE SCARFACE PRINCESS    Betrayal's Sting

    CRESCENT PACKRaymond's PovThere was a lot of chaos in the surrounding area as everyone scrambled to recover from the ambush. I also had to struggle to recover as well. I ran around the pack in search of possible targets or weak links who might have gone missing during the battle or killed at least. It was quite tiring to deal with all of that and it scared me to death who I might find missing or dead. While some might be fairly disposable to me, losing any of the people I care about would be too much of a pain to bear."Raymond!" Someone called but I didn't even have the time to see who it was as I waived them away.I needed to find Anna."Anna is missing!" The voice yelled, stopping me in my tracks."What?" I asked as I turned around to face Gilbert who hurried over to me. "I can't find her!" He exclaimed, panting.Gilbert was a powerful werewolf, one that does not tire easily. If a werewolf of his strength was panting like this, then it means he had pushed himself above and bey
