Ava’s POV

I couldn’t believe what I heard. Jake had finished the riddles flawlessly beating my expectations.

The entire ground was silent, everyone remained mute. I opened my mouth to speak but I couldn’t form the word. Eventually, I forced myself to turn around, Lukan was staring into space, at nothing in particular. His eyes were wide and he knew everything we’d hoped to accomplish with this, everything we’d planned had come crumbling down.

“You look like you’ve seen a ghost,” Jason began, forcing me to momentarily look away from Lukan. “No one has moved a muscle ever since Jake gave his reply to the last question. We deserve to know our fate and we demand an answer right away.”

My shoulders sagged in defeat. The Book of Impossible Tasks had failed me and most importantly, I had failed both Lukan, my child and myself. This wasn’t how I envisaged this to go and I had no one to blame but myself and my pride.

“He was right,” I whispered under my breath.

  • Her Triplet Alpha’s Game   Chapter 106

    Ava’s POV“Do you always need to be so dramatic, Ava?” Lukan began as I pulled him into the office and closed the door behind us, shutting the curtains as well to ensure that we had privacy. “Dramatic?” I turned to face him. “There wasn’t anything happening out there, we were having a civil conversation and now that you pulled me away, everyone is going to start cooking up their version about what just happened. Don’t tell me you didn’t think about this before you dragged me in here?” Lukan said.I paused and processed what he just said. Maybe he had a point but I wasn’t buying his excuse just yet. People were always going to talk regardless of what happened or not. “I don’t think that counts for anything, Lukan. I know you don’t care about gossip, you never have and you’re not going to start now. So except something has changed and you’ve got something to tell me?” I said. “What are we doing here, Ava? The studio is holding the accomplices who tried to poison me and I need to fi

    Ava’s POV“You'd better have a good explanation for what you just did right now.” The man said in a low warning tone as he stood up, towering over Renee and me while Lukan merely frowned. I wasn’t a short person by any chance but I felt dwarfed. He was at least seven inches taller than I was. “I’m sure that she didn’t mean to cause you any disrespect but I—we had to step in. Your cocktail was drugged, I overheard a couple of men talking about it while I was in the restroom.” I struggled to get my words right. “Are you sure about that?” He said, his voice held a lot of skepticism which infuriated me so much that I raised my head to look at him. God, he was beautiful. He was frowning but it was etched the right way on his face, his long black hair cascaded down the side of his face, partly shielding his black orbs from me. He had about a day’s growth of beard on both sides of his face giving him a rakish look. My warning bells rang out loud, telling me to steer clear of the incomin

    Ava’s POV“Renee!” I yelled, my loud voice interrupting her daydreaming. “Jesus Christ, Ava! You nearly gave me a heart attack.”She let out a groan as she turned her head around to glare at me. I wore a scowl on my face as my eyes narrowed in slits. I looked like I wanted to murder someone — Renee, that is— she was the only one in the restroom with me. “I’ve been trying to get your attention for a full minute but you’ve been busy daydreaming about some wolf you probably met last night!” I yelled again, my voice rising. “There you go again.” She said. “Tell me what I said is false.” I dared her. She opened her mouth and snapped it shut. I knew that there was no way she was going to tell me what had been on her mind willingly. I turned on the tap and washed my face before examining my appearance in the mirror. I wondered if she could tell that I knew she had been crying—again. If she did, she never said anything. Her eyes were swollen and puffy, her hair was pulled up in a me

    Ava’s POVLukan was conflicted about a lot of things especially when it came to women. It was pretty difficult to pin him down to one particular one at any point and I’d been hoping that I’d finally managed to narrow down his option but here he was, shocking me with a new discovery.“The waitress had developed the hots for me ever since she started working here a few months ago and while I entertained her advances and occasionally took her home for a quick one, I didn’t feel anything towards her anymore — not after what happened last night.” Lukan explained. “A few weeks ago, you were ready to take her on vacation for a week and now, the sight of her disgusts you?” I chuckled, shaking my head. “A lot can happen in a few weeks and my feelings have changed since then,” Lukan answered, bringing the glass cup to his lips. “Does this have anything to do with the pretty woman who saved your life yesterday?” I gave him a knowing smile. I could still remember how they both acted and fusse

    Ava’s POV“Work?” I raised my eyebrows. It was a Friday night and according to the timetable I was rather familiar with, Lukan was meant to have closed a couple of hours ago.“I’ve got a meeting with a few Alphas and their delegation coming from another region in a couple of hours,” Lukan replied, checking his watch. I couldn’t wrap my head around how he managed to handle everything all at once without putting his health in jeopardy and crashing out. He worked harder than anyone I knew and it got scary at some point because he never took a break. “Can I ask you a question?” I asked.“Sure, you can.” He said. “You work harder than anyone else in the office,” I began. “If you barely have enough time to sleep and unwind, how do you take care of your health?” “You’re worried about me, is that it?” Lukan smiled. “If you’re not taking care of yourself, someone has to do it for you,” I replied, feeling emboldened all of a sudden. “I’ve got the best doctors money can buy, Ava. If there

    Ava’s POV“Seeing as you were so adamant about wearing the dress, did it give you the desired result that you desperately wanted?” Lukan asked, trying to sound as neutral as possible. “Are you asking if it made them notice me a lot before the previous times?” I tossed my eyebrows. “Yes, that’s exactly why I asked,” Lukan confirmed. “I need to know the latest details.”"I don't know, Lukan. But I took Renee’s advice and I apologized to Jake in the office today and after talking for a while, he offered to take me out on another date, a proper one this time around.”“Jake said that himself?” Lukan raised his eyebrows. “He did, much to my surprise. And I was caught off guard.” I confirmed. “I have to admit that I was caught off guard as well,” Lukan said. “I hope you won’t be mad about what I’m about to say next, but—““But you accepted the offer and you’re going on a date with the Wayland brothers before they leave tomorrow evening.” Lukan said. I opened my mouth and snapped it shu
