Finding Autumn Cross

AUTUMN'S POVI didn’t even see her coming – didn’t sense her, which is unlike me. I looked to my side and big amber eyes were looking my way, shining with what I could only pinpoint as excitement. She’s absolutely stunning with her long blonde hair, but I couldn’t understand where she’d come from.Or why I felt so calm around her.“Hey,” I replied hesitantly.“I’m Amery,” she introduced.“Ava,” I informed.She beamed. “That’s a beautiful name.”I shrugged. “Thanks.”“You’re obviously new here since I know practically everyone. Have you made any friends yet?” she asked.She seems like the kind of fireball I’d have to entertain or she wouldn’t leave.“Uh, no, I haven’t,” I responded.“Perfect! Let’s go,” she said.I didn’t even have the chance to protest since by the time I looked up, she was already walking away. Like I said, she looks like the kind I have to entertain, so I thought better than having her pester me, I just do what she wants for the moment.I eventually caught up with h

CASPIAN'S POV“After yesterday’s attack, we need to make sure that we…”I was supposed to be listening to my father, but I honestly couldn’t be bothered. It’s not like he was saying anything I didn’t know in any case. He’d run everything he was saying by me before the meeting, so I knew everything he was about to tell the pack.Instead, I let Hades drag my thoughts to the redhead he insists is our mate. I couldn’t get her emerald eyes out of my mind, as much as I wanted to. Gorgeous isn’t even enough to describe her.I could still remember the first time we lay eyes on her. I hadn’t seen the hunter who shot me, but before I knew it, I heard the distinct sound of arrows being shot – and that’s when we saw her.She didn’t look the least bit terrified, even if it was obvious to me that she hadn’t been in a situation like that before. I had so many questions, but it just wasn’t the right time for them. Jasper and Hudson arrived and saved her from the rogues who were about to kill her.And

CASPIAN'S POVShe giggled as he prodded her with his snout. It took her a while before she realized that he was nudging her stomach. She looked confused at first, before actually lifting her tank top up to reveal her stomach.It’s like she was never shot.“How is this possible?” I asked my wolf.“Like I said – I don’t think she’s human,” he responded as she looked up.“I’m confused. I thought I imagined the whole thing, but if you’re pointing out what I think you’re pointing out, then how am I woundless? I was shot. Where’s the wound? How did I end up back in my room? I have so many questions,” she hyperventilated.We didn’t have an answer to where her wound went since I was confident that Hades was wondering the same thing, but after I dealt with the hunter, Jasper had carried her to the infirmary when she passed out. He and Hudson got the bullet out and treated her wound, and once my leg had healed, I carried her back to her room.Hades did the next best thing and licked her face to

AUTUMN'S POVI probably looked lost for the rest of the day as I racked my brain over the name thing. I was trying to think about the forms I’d filled out. I was pretty confident that I’d used the name Ava, so how did a certain Mr Cage know that my name is Autumn?Especially since the only other person/creature who knows my name is a wolf.Which also sounds absolutely bonkers.“You look like you’re a million miles away,” Amery commented beside me. I was on my way to the car.“I’ve got a date tonight,” I blurted.She frowned, actually looking annoyed. “With who?”“Uhm, no one,” I replied.“No one?” she questioned.“Yeah, no one,” I confirmed.She didn’t look like she bought it one bit. “Be careful Ava.”“Why do I have to be careful?” I asked.“Just be careful, especially with who you decide to date going forward. You saw what Cas almost did.”I was completely baffled as I watched her walk away. I knew I had some kind of feelings for and a connection with Cas, but with her warning, I wa

CASPIAN'S POVShe wasn’t saying anything.She wasn’t screaming.She wasn’t panicking (if her steady heartbeat was anything to go by).She wasn’t even crying.She was just still.And I found that I was the one who was panicking.“Uh Cas, we have a problem,” Jasper linked me.“What is it?” I replied.“I found Jasmine like you instructed, and well, she’s my mate.”“I thought so,” Hades said.He and I had a suspicion the moment we lay eyes on Jasmine. My father had told me that Emily Greenwich had requested that her daughter come and live with her. When she opened the door, her scent reeked of werewolf, but it also didn’t quite seem like it’s a normal werewolf scent.“Her scent is weird though,” Jasper commented.“I picked up on that too and I have a feeling it has to do with Ava. Just watch over her for now. I’ve just revealed myself to Ava and she’s frozen,” I informed, my eyes still stuck on my mate.“So early? And she didn’t pass out or anything?” he asked.“Not yet, but I’m waiting f
