LOGINAva’s POV
“You are grounded for the rest of the month!” The scary woman shouted. She opened Avri’s room door for me to walk in. “Just grounded? I thought the plan was to kill me.” She rolled her eyes and scoffed, “Kill you! what are you talking about?” She said with a confused expression. “Never mind.” I said and cleared my throat. I still have no idea where she fits in the story but I have been grounded in the past and the only one capable of doing that is my uncle that raised me. She must be Avri’s mother but damn! She is so gorgeous. “Can i have more food brought up here, I mean, getting rejected had given me a ravaging appetite…mum.” I said with pleading eyes. “Mum?” The woman gave me a disgusting look, “Don’t you see yourself? What stunning man in his right senses would choose a pig as his Luna?” “And what is with the*mum* Avri, you don’t call me mum! What changed today?” I have been caught! How do I escape this? “Well, I guess I got emotional today.” I said and pulled down my expression. I tried to fake some tears unfortunately my tear gland was malfunctioning. The tears wouldn’t even form at all. “Whatever!” She said and walked away after slamming the door on my face. Now I was right back in the exact room where I had initially woken up. I think I am done with my mission here, ofcourse, I had rejected Alpha Killian back. Now let’s return home. I lay back on the bed and closed my eyes, Nothing happened! Maybe I didn’t lay the right way, I turned around to my left.. A loud bang on the door brought me out of my foolishness. I reluctantly got off the bed sweating profusely. The stupid dress was too heavy and ugly. I made for the door and opened it. Damn! What a fucking dream come true. A whole fucking food tray. Avri sure was lucky, at least, she was born wealthy enough. “The Luna ordered that I bring you food.” The maid from earlier said, “Accept my sympathy about your rejection, Alpha Killian is hard to impress but….” I didn’t wait to hear her sermon, I was already tearing off the chicken flesh. Even in my worst imagination, I dare not be a vegetarian. “If you need someone to talk to Avri, know that I am always available.” Oh! Now it occurred to me. Avri would have been wallowing in self pity right now and getting consoled by some maid whose name I didn’t remember from the w*****n but as for me, I would rather continue devouring my chicken lap. “Thank you, you can go.” I responded calmly. The maid kept staring at me before she finally walked away and slammed my bedroom door. Ofcourse I didn’t remember her name from the w*****n but I knew she was Amanda’s spy, silly little snitch! The first day was fun, so was the next and the next but after a week, it turned to premium tears for me. When I was grounded in the past, my uncle was lenient enough to release me on the third day but here, werewolves were fucking mean parents! I miss my life, I missed hockey and I desperately wished to return to my life. I do not mind my neighbors fucking and yelling every damn night, I do not care if i spend the next four years celebrating my heartbreak every damn night. I give up! Totally. I started searching through the room for anything, anything that could keep me busy. I hadn’t seen any of Avri’s family since Killian’s rejection, just the maids, i have no faintiest idea of how her father’s pack is dealing with this situation. With more vigorous effort, I found out something, Avri had a fucking laptop! It hadn’t occurred to me in anyway, I mean, I knew this w*****n was of the modern setting but a laptop! A total game changer. I might finally figure out my way home. I switched the laptop on, thankfully, it was fully functional. I switched on the Internet and it connected to the family Wi-Fi, how amazing. I searched for the w*****n site. I kept tapping my feet impatiently on the floor as it took forever to load, when it finally clicked, I drew my face closer to the screen to read its contents, The search page doesn’t exist. Wonderful! I searched other w*****n sites including my shopping sites, all of them didn’t exist. Back to square one. I was pissed! Really pissed and I had to direct the anger to someone else. I hated Avri’s family for locking me up here, I hated Avri for being such a clumsy pushover but my greatest hate belongs to Alpha Killian, if he hadn’t rejected Avri harshly, I wouldn’t have made that damn bet and end up here in the first place. In my story, Alpha Killian was the total villain. After sulking for many more days, I started scrolling through the laptop, in order to understand this life better. There were so many interesting informations but my focus had been on pack politics and of course hockey. I found out something interesting, Alpha Killian was a hockey captain of the Frozen Blades. An all male hockey championship team.Finally, I found out something we have in common. I searched the whole internet for any information about Frozen Blades, there were enough articles about them, especially about their sexy stunning captain, i rolled my eyes at that. I am sure he was popular with the girls, that jerk! I was about switching off the internet when a notification popped up on the screen, a newsletter I had subscribed to, A new article was released: “Frozen Blades set to recruit a new team member to replace one of their that left them for a rival pack.” I laughed hysterically staring at Alpha Killian’s picture on the screen, his kissable lip curled in a smug way, What a freaking coincidence, Luck was definitely on my playlist, now my boredom can be quenched. I got up on my feet and dusted my dress, Let’s go be a boy. Author's note: Ava got grounded, fat-shamed, trauma-dumped, ignored, and STILL managed to steal chicken and Wi-Fi in the same chapter 😭🍗💻. And now she’s about to become a whole boy just to play hockey. I’m not writing a novel anymore; I’m babysitting a certified menaceAva I took one look in the mirror and barely recognized myself. My Hair perfectly curled and I added a little bit of makeup to make my face look perfect. I wore an outfit tight in all the right places and heels that made me feel like I was walking on stilts. I looked at myself in the mirror, there is no way they are going to turn me down if they really need thick strippers.I tilted my head. “Congratulations Ava,” I muttered to my reflection. “You have officially weaponized thickness.” Hunger makes you creative.I opened the door to the lounge,I strutted in like I owned the joint. Music thumping, lights glinting off the bar, but this time, heads turned as I walked in. The manager looked up immediately, he froze, his eyes did a full-body scan like they were downloading a file. His jaw literally dropped. I swear I saw saliva pooling at the corner of his mouth.“Well, damn,” he muttered, “You must be the sister.”I smiled sweetly. “Unfortunately.” He circled the counter like a man appr
AvaMy stomach growled like it was fighting for its life. Loud. Angry. Dramatic.I was broke, hungry, and completely penniless, unless hunger counted as a currency. I had spent my very last coins on bus fare, and now here I was, standing in front of The Velvet Lounge, praying the universe finally felt sorry for me.The place was huge. Flashy lights. Glass doors. Music thumping faintly from inside like a heartbeat. Right in front of the entrance was a sign that looked like it had been sent straight from heaven.Help Wanted: Waitstaff.I nearly cried, another job advert. If I worked hard, maybe I would get tips. If I smiled enough, maybe someone would pity me and drop extra cash. Worst case, I could flirt my way into surviving until payday. Anything was better than starving to death dramatically on the street.I can do this, I told myself. I can totally be a waiter.I straightened my shoulders and walked into the lounge like I owned it, trying my best to channel confidence. Manly confi
Ava’s POV“Turn around.” The deep voice bellowed to me, he dropped the stash of papers I had handed him.I eyed him maliciously, I wasn’t stupid, I knew where this was headed, this is the third time in a day that a 360 was requested of me. I folded my arms on my chest.“Are you employing me or not?” I questioned confidently, staring at his freckle-covered face.“Well Mr Lowell, i could say…you have quite a face card but damn, you are too….”“Fat?” I interjected harshly.“Well, I was about to say meaty for a young lad, most of our customers are high school girls, no offense meant though.” What does that have to do with my employment? Was I supposed to seduce those little bitches?I shrugged my shoulders, “None taken, at least, you are a little more polite than the rest.”“Excuse me!”“Never mind, if your job listing doesn’t accept people of my body size….we’ll, it’s a shame we wasted each other’s time.”“No Mr Lowell, actually, we have two job openings but the receptionist you applied
Ava’s POV.I hate to say this but I am freaking out right now, I had confidently challenged Killian to a practice match today, now that we are almost on the ice rink, Why are my legs shaking terribly?“A.J, you have to show us everything you have got right now!” Killian’s voice thundered.Everything!I thought being selected the previous day was the end, I never knew I had to go through a more vigorous process.“Jake Job was a great hockey player, his replacement shouldn’t be any less.” Gale added, eyeing me like a hawk ready to devour its prey.“I can handle it.” I said calmly.I heard laughter behind me and I turned around to see those silly twins that attempted to oust me the previous day, there was a skinny third wheel that looked like a starved dog, oh! I almost forgot they were werewolves, starved wolf. The three silly boys seemed to think mockery was a great way to welcome a new team member.Well, I wouldn’t take any offense, I just have to teach them some manners on the ice r
Killian’s POV “Do I know you A.J Lowell?” “No Captain.” I kept staring at his giant back as I walked off the ice rink. The head helmet didn’t give me enough opportunity to gauge his expression but he just called me Alpha. He definitely knows that I am a werewolf and Silverfang pack leader at that. Was he a spy or something? “Captain, do you have something to say to our new intake? You have been staring at…his big butt…I mean back.” Scott, one of the team members said beside me. Was I that obvious? “No, I just wonder if he could possibly make up for Jake Job’s departure.” “No worries Captain, we will butter him up before the championship game.” I nodded my head in agreement but I still feel bad that my beta hated my decision. I have never seen Gale hate on anyone as much as that fat boy, probably because he never approved of chubby people at all. “Are you headed to the usual?” Scott said, suddenly taking me out of my thoughts. “The usual?” I questioned suspiciously. “Thick t
Ava’s POV I have one more rule to add to my collection, don’t hate the game, just hate the damn player! Gale was going to get the exact thing he wished for when he switched places with the goalie of the other team. I pushed my weight forward on my skates pretending that the other players were invincible, I dribbled with one of the players and collected the puck from him. Ouch! Making for the goal post was the logical move but I made for the illogical one, Showing off to Killian! “Bring the puck closer, fat boy.” I heard one of the players yell mockingly. I scoffed internally, I am getting used to being called fat even when I knew it was clearly an insult. I looked up towards the opponent goalpost and then to Killian whose eyes were glued on me. His eyes were wide open and right on me, just where I wanted it to be. I used my discretion and moved seamlessly between the players, each attempting to seize the puck but my hockey stick was as ill intent as I was. It kept throwing the
