Avaline

The heavy, dark fog in my mind started to clear. When I first opened my eyes, bright morning sunlight was streaming through a large window. The sharp smell of antiseptic filled my nose. I was lying in a soft bed inside a quiet, private room at Mammoth Springs General Hospital. An IV line was taped to the back of my hand, dripping clear liquid slowly into my vein.

My body still felt a little tired and sore, but the scary paralysis from Jaxon’s drug was completely gone. I could move my fi

    I had to tell him about Jaxon’s hand in the rogue attack. He had the right to know how Jaxon had tried to frame him. “I’m so sorry you had to go through that attack. I overheard Jaxon and his friends discussing it the night of the Luna Ceremony.”Rocco nodded and frowned. “What did you overhear? We tried to investigate the rogue attack while I was recovering, but the trail went completely cold. The rogue leader, Lupin from the Chugach Mountain Pack in Alaska, died mysteriously in police custody before we could interrogate him. All the evidence died with him."A sudden, sharp memory flashed through my mind. The night of the Luna ceremony: the dark balcony and the voices.I pulled back and stared at Rocco, my breath catching in my throat. "Lupin... Jaxon knew him."Rocco's eyes narrowed instantly, his Beta instincts flaring to life. "What do you mean, Ava?""The night of the Luna ceremony, before everything fell apart," I explained quickly, my words tumbling out in a rush. "I was on the

    AvalineThe heavy, dark fog in my mind started to clear. When I first opened my eyes, bright morning sunlight was streaming through a large window. The sharp smell of antiseptic filled my nose. I was lying in a soft bed inside a quiet, private room at Mammoth Springs General Hospital. An IV line was taped to the back of my hand, dripping clear liquid slowly into my vein.My body still felt a little tired and sore, but the scary paralysis from Jaxon’s drug was completely gone. I could move my fingers and wiggle my toes. I was finally in control of my body again.“Avaline?” Rocco’s voice penetrated through my thoughts.I turned my head toward the soft voice to find Rocco sitting in a chair right next to my bed. He looked worn out, with dark circles under his eyes and his hair slightly messy, as if he hadn’t slept a single minute all night. But the moment he saw my eyes open, a wave of deep relief washed over his face.“Rocco...” My voice came out as a weak, scratchy whisper.He immediat

  • From Ashes To Flame: Return Of The Forsaken Omega   Chapter Eighty-Eight - Stripped Off Everything

    JaxonThe icy walls of the prison pressed against my back as I sat slumped against them in despair. How did everything go downhill? A few hours ago, I was the respected beta of the Ozark Mountain Pack, and now I was an ordinary prisoner, awaiting trial.No one supported me. Not even my best friend and brother Maximus. I had never expected this day would arrive when the only person I had looked up to all my life would leave me stranded.Devastated and close to tears, I thought about Avaline’s desperate attempt at escaping. The tears streamed down my cheeks when I remembered the way she clung to Rocco even in her stupor. Did she hate me so much? Did I lose her forever? I had gone to such great lengths for her. I had even removed Valerie from the picture. No one in this world could love her more than me. How could she love someone else?Footsteps echoed outside my cell, and I waited eagerly for my best friend to rescue me. Since the day I was born, Maximus had always supported me uncondi

    AvalineThe car screeched to a halt, and I came out of my stupor. I could hear the chaos around me, but my body was too numb to respond.“Fu*k” I heard Jaxon’s furious roar as he slammed his fists on the steering wheel.I wanted to open the car door and run, but my body wouldn’t respond at all. The drug Jaxon had injected in me made my limbs feel heavy like lead. I could hear, but I couldn’t utter a single word. I could hear Jaxon’s panicked breathing, the loud click of his gun, and the engine humming. But I was completely paralyzed to react. What was going on? What made Jaxon stop?“What the hell!” Jaxon muttered as a loud roar of cars surrounded us. I opened my heavy eyes to a slit, but my vision swam. I could see vague heavy-duty armored vehicles pulling up from every side to block Jaxon’s car. A black armored Rolls-Royce crashed right into Jaxon’s front bumper with a horrible metal crunch.I gasped inwardly, recognizing Alpha Jason’s car. Was I hallucinating? Or were they really h

    AvalineI felt choked, my throat burning from the fumes I had inhaled. At that moment, I wasn’t ready to confront the beast, Jaxon Whitfield. All I needed was a hospital, but there was no one to rescue me. The fire fighters noticed their capable beta approaching me and left us alone.“Come with me, Avaline. I’ve got you.” Jaxon’s eyes held a concern that seemed fake, as if covering for the fury he actually felt.The guards dispersed out of respect. “Beta Jaxon, we have rescued her from the fire.”Jaxon nodded, a grateful look shimmering in his eyes. “You’ll be rewarded handsomely for your efforts. Thank you, everyone.”I panicked and clutched the sleeve of one of them. “No, please don’t go. Take me to a hospital, please.”Jaxon pried my fingers free of his sleeve and smiled at him. “I’ll take over from here.”They nodded and left to watch the firefighters work.“Get in the car, Avaline,” he hissed, his face flushed with fury.I stepped backwards from him. “Stop the fake act, Jaxon.

    AvalineI stared at the congestion ahead near the security check-post of Waltonville. What was going on? Then, my gaze fell on Jaxon yelling at his sentinels, and my heart sank. Did he find out I was missing?I had skipped lunch and dinner after Valerie told me it was spiked to keep me unconscious. She had left me with enough food to last the day. She had promised to help me escape in the evening when Jaxon left for the packhouse.I waited for her all evening, but she didn’t keep her promise. The housekeeper, Mrs. Miller, had left me a bottle of water in my room. I emptied it in a gulp, feeling parched since morning. Jaxon had blocked my entry into the kitchen, making me depend on Mrs. Miller instead. I hadn’t thought much about it until now. Maybe he wanted to keep me drugged so that I wouldn’t escape him.I wanted to escape, but a strange exhaustion overcame my senses. Soon, I was so drowsy I eventually dozed off. When I woke up, it was dinnertime. Mrs. Miller served my food in my r
