AVA

I pushed open the door to the café, gently as the bells jingled. The scent of cocoa and milk, filled my nostrils, but that wasn't why I was here.

I held my head straight, scanning around the room, and then my eyes fell on her.

Short black hair resting on her shoulder. Well ironed blue shirt and a black skirt. Typical Dr Ella Griffin.

I drew in a long shaky breath before approaching her table.

“Dr Ella,” I said with a smile, as I took the seat across from her.

“Welcome home, Ava,” She replied, a smug smile curling up her lip.

I nodded briefly, resting my phone on this table. A place where it wouldn't look suspicious if Selene texts me.

“How was your ride back home?” She asked calmly.

“Good,” I answered.

“Oh, please, forgive my manners.” She smiled, calling for the barista. “An iced americano please,”

I watched her closely, trying to read her but I couldn't. She was really good at hiding secrets.

“How long have you known?” I blurted, leaning back in my chair.

She chuckled softly, ta

  • Double Claimed: Marked by Two    A rescue mission

    AVAI got dressed up, we had another meeting today. Since I lost myself yesterday, another one has been rescheduled for today.“Hey,” Selene called with a smile, approaching me.“Hi,” I replied, returning the smile.“Looking good,” She teased, accompanying it with a wink.“What do you mean?” I asked, “What happened yesterday?”She shrugged, turning her face forward. “Nothing.”I was about to say something when Riley and the other girls walked out.I nodded at their greetings before we walked into the meeting room and as usual, we were the last to arrive.The session for today began as the host discussed the treaty with the humans and then presented the final result from the votes cast yesterday.It was decided.We were finally coming out to the world, and we're going to tell them about us.But first, I needed to do something.After the meeting, I walked back to my room. I sat on the bed, going through my phone as I read the latest article on Dr Ella Griffin. Only if they knew the devi

  • Double Claimed: Marked by Two    Sharing a common story

    AVAI stood in the middle of a green field, surrounded by short shrubs and trees.Something about the place felt familiar, it was as though I'd been here before.I took gentle steps forward, tilting my head to the side as I scanned the area, checking if I'd see anyone but I was alone.“Hello!” I shouted, but got the reply of my echo.The place lingered in a long, stretching silence that seemed to bore into my skin, sending shivers down my body.A sudden movement snapped me out of my thoughts as I looked up ahead.I caught the sight of someone whom I could guess was a lady, dressed in a flowing white gown, standing at the edge of the field and looking over at the waterfall.A small smile appeared on my face as I hurried towards her, waving my hand as I called for her attention.“Hey,” I screamed out loud, but she didn't move, she only stood still, her silky white hair moving with the wind.“Hi,” I called softly, when I finally reached her.“Thought you weren't going to make it.” She sa

    AVAWe sat quietly in the meeting room as one of the wolves reminded us of what we had talked about the previous day.“... And today, we'll be taking a general vote. We need to finalise on our decision concerning what the head alpha had talked to us about.”“Before we begin, I'd like to throw a question at the head alpha.” An alpha of another pack asked.“Yes, please.” I nodded, “Go on.”He cleared his throat as he stood up, his eyes narrowing across the room.“What assurance can you give to us if we all decide to come out to the general public. Do we have any protection covering us?” He asked, and soon, murmurs rippled across the room, everyone acknowledging his question.“I do not have anything to give you as an assurance.” I said, “But I can promise you that if it comes to war, I'd lay down my life for peace to reign.”“Very well then,” The alpha nodded. “Shall we begin?”A piece of paper and a pen were shared around the room, and everyone seated was to write down if they accepted

    LOCATION: (ATHENIAN PACK, TRAINING AREA).CALEB I felt the urge to call Ava but I had already made up my mind. It was better if we stayed away from each other for the time being. Ava needed her space more. She was the leader, and adding myself to her problems would increase things for her, and that's not what I want to be in her life.I stared at the other warriors as they swung their swords in the air, lunging at each other as they trained for the upcoming war.The morning sun was already up, casting its light on where I sat on the dry grass.I stared down at the sword Logan had given me to practice on. Never knew a sword was this heavy to carry and yet, Ava carried it like it was a feather.More reasons why I shouldn't underestimate her and add to her worries.“Hey, man,” Thomas called as he stood in front of me.I squinted my eyes, looking up at him.“Hey,” I replied.“Not practising?” He asked, his gaze on the warriors.“Didn’t feel like doing it,” I answered.“Come on, I'll teac

    AVAI sat on the bed in the hotel room. The meeting was over and rescheduled to continue the next day.I stared at the ceiling, hot tears still welled up in my eyes.If only they would see reasons me, if only they would see what danger we're about to enter.“Ava,” Selene called as she entered the room, her hand on my shoulder as she jolted me out of my thoughts.“Are you okay?” She asked.“Yeah,” I sniffled.Silence followed, I could feel her gaze on me. I knew she had a lot to talk to me.“Why did you do it?” She asked, finally breaking the silence.I drew in a long shaky breath, my shoulders dropping as I stared at her.“I didn't know what happened, I just wanted to let them see reasons with me. I didn't want to act stupid in front of everyone.”“You didn't act stupid.” She muttered lowly. “You acted like a true leader.”“A true leader,” I scoffed. “I don't think so.”“Well, I do.” She said, walking towards the bathroom. “And I know no one can beat you at what you do best.”I chuckl
