View MoreAva's POV:I gasped as the man got to his feet because rather than rage or anger, he was laughing.“F****** bastard, still haven't found the one to take that stick out of your ass? I mean, this one looks perfect for the job," the man said and Iris moved towards him. I unconsciously stopped him by placing a hand on his arm.“You seem to be awfully chatty today,” Iris said to him and he scoffed."Pardon my manners my lady, this one likes to tell everyone that I spend my every waking breath between the legs of a woman, even though that would be a dream come through. My name is Lucien and welcome to the farm,” the man said to me and extended a hand for me to shake.For some reason I turned to look at Iris who sighed before giving me a nod. Then I took the offered hand. “I'm Ava," I said to him and he shared a look with Iris that I chose to ignore.“Well Ava, welcome once again and where would you like to start?" Lucien asked me but before I could answer I felt Iris tighten his hold on me
Ava's POV:I woke up to see a tray on a table beside my bed, a note was attached to it“Good morning, beautiful. Love is brewing and so is your coffee. Too much? Well, let's say your morning started with a smile. I,” the note read and I burst out laughing. Iris was truly a man of different sides.That is if he is the one who wrote this. The expanse of this man's wealth was something I was yet to grasp and I wasn't sure if I wanted to know.The gesture warmed my heart. I sat up and lifted the covers to see what he had delivered to my room. It was barely six-thirty, but it was still a little early for me.Especially since my baby hasn't decided if we would be spending an hour over the toilet seat this morning or just fifteen minutes.At the thought of the morning sickness, my stomach turned, and I rushed to the toilet just in time to say goodbye to the contents of my stomach.I gripped my belly as dizziness assaulted me next; when my vision settled, I went to freshen up for the day.Tha
Evelyn's POV:Once Betty had calmed down, I drew the doctor aside for some questioning. He rolled his eyes when he saw me checking the corridors before speaking.“What is it now? Why did she take two of the pills? Does she want to die so badly or lose her womb for good?! Forging a miscarriage is one thing, but overdosing like this could spell doom for her! What were you two thinking?!" The doctor hissed at me in a low voice and I glared at him.“Why are you yelling at me? Am I the one who took the drug?! I don't know what got into her but what is done is done. Now we need a mitigation plan! What can be done?" I asked him in a low tone as well, you are never truly alone in a werewolf pack. Someone is always listening to something they shouldn't be listening to.“I will have to run some tests to see what damage has been done and what can be done to fix what can be repaired. But I am warning you, if you two get yourselves killed, don't rope me into it!" The doctor hissed at me before wal
Alpha Rob's POV:I ended up sitting with Betty in my lap as they administered antidotes to her through IVs. Right now, she was asleep, and I could finally look into my head to see my thoughts.When Iris reached out to have dinner with me and the family, I knew that something was going down.Yes, he mentioned that he was taking Ava for himself that day at the council meeting. But I never imagined that he was going to actually marry her.Ava was mine, plain and simple. I might have done some dick moves in the past but Ava was my mate. I divorced her, I didn't break our bond.Betty was supposed to come in and produce the heir for the pack which was essential, but I never foresaw Ava murdering my pup in vengeance. So I wanted to punish her, which didn't end well.Ava couldn't marry my brother, that was just wrong!And Ava, I have never seen her looking so beautiful in my life, neither have I seen her angry like I did tonight. She looked like she was going to knock my teeth out for asking
Betty's POV:I stared at my reflection in the mirror after the night's events were over.I heard them in the bathroom earlier. Not all of it, but the part where Alpha Rob asked that she give him some time to fix things. That was enough to send hot, raging lava through my veins, and I walked away because confronting Alpha Rob then would have led to nothing but chaos.I broke my hairbrush in anger and tossed it. Lycan Iris, of all people, was off limits to Ava; she should know this and know her place!How dare she take something that I couldn't get?!Lycan Iris and I had a past, but I wanted to be Luna, and he was no alpha. But now that he openly declared his interest in marrying Ava, I wanted him back. I wanted both of them!There was a knock on my door and I glared hotly at the intrusion.Taking a deep breath, I went to see who it was. It was Maxwell, I rolled my eyes and held myself from slamming the door in his face.“What do you want?" I asked him in an icy tone.“Nothing, your mot
Ava's POV:The ring was completely unexpected. I stared at it in the bathroom after I had freshened up. Iris also told me to take every chance I got to reapply my lipstick even though nothing was obviously wrong with the one on my lips.I looked at myself in the mirror and I couldn't recognize who stared back at me. Though my eyes looked a bit tired, the make-up made me look beautiful.Adding the ring to the whole ensemble made me feel giddy inside. Was this what it meant to be cherished by a man? I kind of liked it even though I knew Iris was doing this for show.I moved to leave the bathroom but I was soon pushed back in by none other than Alpha Rob. The shock soon gave way to all the anger and resentment I have been feeling since he broke the news to me that he was taking my sister as his second wife.“What the hell do you think you are doing?!" I said to Alpha Rob, trying to keep the anger at bay. He had absolutely no right to corner me the way he just did.“I should be asking y
Evelyn's POV:The sound of glass hitting the floor caught my attention and I realized that I was the one who dropped my glass.“Oh my! I am so sorry!" I rushed to apologize even though I didn't mean a word of it.What the actual hell?!I prepared all of this for the announcement of her big day?! I didn't even do anything as grand for Betty because it was a little uncomfortable to go all out as I wanted. But this was downright shameless!She was even dressed up like this was her engagement party!!“Congratulations, brother. We will ensure to be present at the ceremony. Just send the details to my secretary, and we will work around it," Alpha Rob said to Lycan Iris, and my eyes widened in surprise at how he could possibly be composed right now with everything that was happening!"Of course. With that in mind, I would love to present my beautiful fiance with our family heirloom. This ring holds significance for both of us, but it was given to me as the oldest son and the Lycan in the hou
Ava's POV:The ride to the pack was filled with nerves for me. I didn't exactly have an expectation for the reception I was going to get there.Just as I folded my hands in my lap, Iris intertwined our fingers.“You are too tense for someone who looks this beautiful," Iris said to me and I turned to look in his direction. My cheeks heated up at his compliment, and the feeling of my hand in his was something else."Thank you, but I can't help it. The last time I was here they were deciding my execution for a crime I didn't commit. I don't know what to expect now that we are returning as a couple," I said to Iris who nodded his head.“Fair enough, but you can't allow your nerves to get the best of you tonight. Remember to have fun while at it; I plan to,” Iris said to me, and I nodded my head. He suddenly leaned in."Do you recall that woman we saw on the sidewalk of the mall on our way out?" Iris asked me and I took a moment to think about it before nodding my head.“What do you think
Ava's POV:I walked out of the dressing room feeling unsure about the outfit that Iris had picked for me to use tonight. It was still eleven in the morning but here we were playing dress up.Well, I was the one wearing different outfits and Iris was giving each a rating.“I don't know, this seems too much. I know we need to make a statement but this is downright shameless," I said to Iris as I stared at my reflection in the mirror. The emerald green gown matched my green eyes. We were yet to go for makeup which I believe was absolutely unnecessary. Why was I bothering to look good for that bastard, Rob?Iris, on the other hand, rose to his feet and approached me. My breath suddenly got stuck in my throat as he once again stepped into my space.I was immediately assaulted by his scent.“Hmm, I believe this is just perfect for what I had in mind for tonight," Iris said as he walked around me, the way his eyes moved over my skin made me pant.“It has the right touch of everything to mak
Ava’s Pov“Try not to wear that pathetic expression, you are sucking the joy out of the room for everyone else,” my stepmother hissed into my ear. Each word that came out of her mouth was more painful than the last.I forced a smile, brittle and hollow. It felt foreign on my face, a mask I wore to survive this nightmare. My eyes burned, but I refused to let the tears fall. Not here. Not now.“You may now kiss the bride,” the priest announced. The room stilled for a heartbeat as the groom leaned in, his face with happiness. His lips brushed hers in a kiss so tender it felt like mockery.The crowd erupted in applause, their cheers booming through the room. Around me, smiles beamed, hands clapped, and voices shouted congratulations. I clapped too, forcing my shaking hands to mimic their rhythm. But inside, I was sad, angry too. This was the man I had loved. The man I had vowed to spend my life with—Alpha Robertson Hastings. My husband. And now, he was holding my sister as if she were ...
