Ava“ Thank you for the dinner,” Gideon said looking at me but I knew from his voice that it wasn't Gideon who was talking to me.“ You are his Lycan,” I said, and his eyes changed in a flash of a moment. He chuckled before looking at me again with his black orbs which reminded me of the calm and stormy night.“ Aren't you afraid of me, little one?” He asked. His voice was velvety but husky which was laced with lust.“ No,” I said honestly.“ Can we talk, little one?” He asked again. He is being so gentle with me like I am fragile and delicate.“ You are, my love,” he answered my unspoken question. My eyes went wide staring at him. Did he just read my mind? I asked myself.“ Yes I did,” he said with a smile on his lips. I narrowed my eyes on him because I don't like it.“ I won't do it again,” I said.Without saying a word he walked towards the bed with me in his arms and sat down on the mattress.“ Let me go,” I said, as I wanted to free myself from his hold.“ No!” His voice was low
Unknown “ We have found her, finally,” one of my men said. Looking out of the window I smiled. Finally, I thought, you will pay off what your mother wasn't able to give us.“ What should we do now?” He asked.“ Nothing,” I said.“ Why, she already has a mate,” he added.“ Who is it?” I asked through gritted teeth.“ The Lycan king,” he replied.Closing my eyes I took a sharp intake of breath. This is going to be a war. A war no one has ever witnessed and all the bloodshed will be on your name Susan, I thought in my head.“ But they didn't mark each other. And she has an aura of a human,” he added.“ Are you sure that she is the daughter of Susan?” I asked.“ She has the same features as her,” he replied.“ The ball will be held the day after tomorrow and we could make sure if she is really Susan's daughter. And if she is, we will take her away,” my son said.I didn't respond to him but I liked his idea. I really would like to see how she looks now that she is all grown up.Gideon“ Y
AvaI woke up to the sun softly kissing on my eyelids. I peered my eyes open slowly and looked towards the window where I saw Jenny was sitting on the couch while reading a book.“ Hey,” she said in a small voice as soon as she heard me sitting up.“ Good morning,” I said, my voice was hoarse and dry.“ Did you wait all night?” I asked when she stood up and walked to me.“ No, I came at dawn,” she replied.“ Are you alright now,” she asked as she sat next to me.“ Umm hmm,” I responded.I knew she would not believe me right now but one for sure I don't want to talk about what happened yesterday.I am being patient right now because of a strange dream I had last night.“ Would you like to have your breakfast here or would you like to join the rest of us?” Jenny asked, pulling me out of my thoughts.“ Huh?”“ No. I don't want to see his face,” I spat.“ He won't be there. He is busy right now,” she said.“ Ok then I would like to go downstairs,” I said.“ Jenny?” I called her name think
GideonI sighed, walking back and forth as I felt restless. Finally today is the day I will announce that I found my mate. But there was a constant feeling that made me uneasy.“ Gideon, the council members are on their way,” Daro said, coming into my office.“ You should get ready, Gideon,” he said, walking to me. I know I would never be able to hide anything from him.“ Any news on the hybrid?” I asked and he shook his head.“ And what about the attackers?” I asked. There is still nothing about the attackers who attacked on the blue moon pack.“ There is nothing,” he said.“ I know it sounds crazy but it seems like they came and vanished into thin air,” he added.“ It is impossible, daro. There is no clue about anything. Wait! You heard about the lady who appeared with Alexandre in the blue moon pack, right?” I said and he nodded his head recalling what my men had said the other day about the stranger who showed up with the former alpha of the blue moon pack.“ Contact John,” I said
Ava“ Hello,” I said when the receiver picked up the call.“ Ava?” He asked.“ Yes. Did you have any news?”“ No, not yet. But I think we are close. I have tracked something down and I could send you the information if you want to,” he added.“ No no no!!! I need a favour,” I asked and he went silent. He knew something was wrong, otherwise I have never asked for help.“ I need you to come and pick me from the border,” I said.“ Which one? Wait, you didn't mean the border of the lycan Kingdom did you?” He asked and I went silent. I knew I was asking too much but I wouldn't be able to go far away with my human feet.“ I know it's too much but I seriously need your help guys,” I said.“ Too much? No you are asking us to go there with our life in our hands,” Liam said from the other side of the phone.“ It's okay……. Liam cut me off abruptly.“ We are coming. Be prepared. I have heard that forests are more mysterious than the ocean,” he said, his voice was filled with excitement.“ Thank y
Ava “ Andrew,” I whispered but it was heard by all of the people present there. “ I am a flattered princess,” he said. “ You still remembered my name. How sweet of you,” he said with a smile. One of Gideon’s hands went to my waist pulling me closer to him possessively. “ Gideon,” he said as his expression changed, so was his tone. “ Andrew,” Gideon replied. “ I hope you don't cause any trouble,” Gideon said, making Andrew chuckle. “ Oh come on. I am not a bad person, Gideon,” Andrew said with a smirk on his face. “ Well, I need a drink now. I will meet you later princess,” saying that he walked away into the crowds. “ The ball is officially starting now,” Gideon said, his voice booming in the hall. All of their attention shifted from us to each other as they all resumed their conversation. “ Stay away from him,” he said, leading me through the crowds as they parted ways for us. I could sense the curiosity in their gazes. “ Gideon, who is this?” A man in his late fifties aske
Gideon “ Darling,” I heard Evelyn’s voice from behind. I narrowed my eyes and I turned around to see who she was referring to. And to my surprise she came to me and jumped in my arms before kissing me. On one hand due to my reflexes I had to hold her to prevent her from falling and on the other hand I was taken aback by her initiative. “ fuck, Gideon,” zender cursed in my head. Before I could push her away I saw from the corner of my eyes that Ava was watching us. “ What the hell?” I said my voice was cold and loud. Seeing my anger flared and the authority in my voice she took a step back. “ I….. i…… “ How dare you?” I asked, looking at her, clenching my fist. “ I am your finance,” she said with unshed tears in her eyes. Fu*k, I need to mark her so that her body starts to change. It is the only way for her to stay safe after she became a Lycan. “ You just disrespected your king in public,” Daro said. “ Well, I didn't mean to,” she replied looking down. “ She is your finance G
Gideon“ Eh, your highness,” Daro came to me looking as if he had seen a ghost. Then my eyes fell on Jenny. She looked like she was on the verge of crying.“ what happened?” I asked, narrowing my eyes looking at them.“ Please come with me,” he said.I wanted to ask him more about the situation but decided not to. I walked away from the alpha of the Crescent moon pack. Daro and Jenny followed me behind.“ What is it?” I asked to reach the hall beside the kitchen.“ Ava……. Jenny said and without completing her words she started sobbing.“ Tell me,” I asked , getting impatient.“ Our maids found her dress in the restroom,” Daro completed her words.“ What?” Where is she now?” I asked and everything went still as realisation dawned on me. I clenched my fist, you still had to run away from me, I thought in my head.“ The ball ends here,” saying that, I took a deep breath and I could smell Ava's scent lingering in the air and it was strong enough to tell me which way she had gone to.“ Tel
