AVA

I stared, swallowing hard.

How the hell was Mr Simon Lopez here? It can't be what I was thinking, right?

I was still lost in thought when Selene tapped my arm.

I hummed a response, lifting my gaze to her.

“Doesn’t she look familiar?” She whispered.

I followed her gaze until it fell on a red-haired girl, standing next to Mr Lopez.

She smiled, waving at us as her gaze settled on Selene and me.

I shifted my gaze back at Mr Lopez and then at the girl, and then slowly turned to Selene, whispering barely audibly.

“Selene, is it glowing?” I swallowed hard.

She stared down at my collarbone, her eyes widened, then she brought it up staring into my eyes.

“He is your mate.”

My head snapped, and everything began to blur. The room seemed to spin, the voices fading. I couldn't hear a single word they were saying.

I should have known earlier, the mark always glowed whenever he was near. On the day I went to save Alec and met the red-haired girl, I should have known it was him.

  • Double Claimed: Marked by Two    The meeting

    AVAI rolled out of bed, dragging my feet to the bathroom. My bags had already been packed and arranged. Today was the day, the day the meeting would be held, the day I would finally get to find out about all the other werewolf packs.I stepped into the shower, allowing the cold chilly water to run down my body. This was what I really needed, a cool bath.I had to spend an extra hour inside the bathroom before coming out.I stared at my reflection in the mirror as I applied oil to my skin. Then my gaze fell on the mark.My heart began to throb heavily. Of course, today I'll finally get to meet my new mate and end everything.But somehow, I wanted to feel him, to feel his touch and warmth.“Really, are we gonna start imagining hot things about our mate?” Micha teased, finally waking up from her million-year sleep.“And look who's finally awake,” I said, applying oil to my face.“I needed my beauty sleep for a moment like this.” She replied.“Right,” I said, clicking my tongue as I walk

  • Double Claimed: Marked by Two    The break up

    AVA“He’s so cute,” Riley sang as she twirled around my room.We were done with the meeting since the three siblings decided to use it and reunite. And we wouldn't want to disrupt such a moment, that was why I had to end the meeting.We were back at my room, I sat on the reading chair, going through my phone, Ruby and Emelia sat on the couch, discussing something I'm not really interested in and Riley, of course, was disturbing the peace of everyone in the room.“Hold up,” Ruby grinned, tilting her head to Riley. “You like Alec?”“Of course,” She said with a smile.“I didn't see that coming.” Emelia teased as we all burst out, laughing.“I’m serious guys,” She whined, slumping on the couch.A slight knock on the door disrupted our light chatter.“Who is it?” I asked, shifting my gaze to the door.“Caleb.”I turned to the girls, signalling to them to give us some little privacy.“That’s our cue to leave guys.” Emelia whistled, winking at me as they left the room.“Hey,” I smiled, walki

  • Double Claimed: Marked by Two    A siblings reunion

    AVAI walked into the meeting room and as usual, everyone was seated, all waiting for me. I really needed to stop being the last to show up.I took my seat next to Selene, adjusting myself properly.“Shall we begin?” Xavier asked as he rose to his feet.“Greetings everyone, and thank you for coming on such short notice.” He began, his eyes narrowing and darting across the room.“Ethan and his men have made their move, we do not know when they will attack or how, so I urge you all to be alert. I have instructed the warriors to tighten the pack’s security.”“My lord,” An elder said, raising his hand.“Yes, elder Pete?” Xavier replied.“Does it mean we need to stop any activity we have ongoing in the pack?” He asked.“No,” Xavier answered, calmly. “You can all continue on your activities, go about your daily lives. I trust that the warriors would protect us and alert us when Ethan makes his move.”“Then how about the meeting with the international wolf pack?” Selene asked, grabbing the a

  • Double Claimed: Marked by Two    Internal conflict

    CALEBI strolled into the garden, I needed to clear my head. The moment I stepped in, I froze on the spot, I was unable to move. My chest tightened, stomach twisted. It felt as though something piercing had hit me. My heart shattered into a thousand pieces.Ava had betrayed me, she had betrayed the love we shared. My eyes blurred from what I witnessed. Ava gave in to him, allowing him kiss her, she didn't move, she didn't bulge. She only stood, watching him lean closer to her before placing his lips on hers.I didn't know what to do, I just felt stuck, I couldn't breathe, my throat ran dry.Slowly, I turned, leaving the garden. I dragged my legs into my room, falling on the bed.I stared at the ceiling, and memories that I shared with Ava came rushing in. Ava had always promised me that she would never do anything to betray our love, but I was a fool to believe her. Only if I knew, I just trusted her but she threw the trust away.Who am I kidding? She had always been in love with Xavi

  • Double Claimed: Marked by Two    Do you still love me?

    XAVIER“Fuck!” I growled, picking the flower vase in my room and throwing it on the wall as it shattered.I never meant to make Ava snap at me. We were already on the verge of settling our peace and now I just had to make it worse.I didn't know what pushed me, I guess it was the anger. Yes, I shouldn't have blamed her for that but she was the primary cause of it.I ran my hand through my hair, opening a glass of vodka as I poured the contents into a cup, and with one gulp, it was gone.I was about to pour in another when a soft tap on the door came.“Who is it?” I groaned.“Logan.” He answered.Just the perfect person I was looking for.For the past five years, since I was given the title of alpha, I had not had a good talk with Logan. Most of the time, I feel like he's angry with me, and at other times, I just clear my thoughts.“Come in,” I said.He pulled the door, stepping in as though he had just committed a crime.“Busy?” He asked, his eyes darting around the room.“Wanna join?
