MasukSummer's POVWhen I moved to enter the basketball court, I spotted Ava's car arrive, as a long, luxurious bus pulled up too. Inside the bus were basketball players from the Bright Star Pack.Grinning, I glanced away and moved towards the entrance. The security searched us one by one before we were permitted entry.I moved to find a seat, my heart thudding in my chest as I sat close and watched the audience chairs fill up.Many pack members arrived, and we sat across from some of the fans from the Bright Star Pack.Their players wore red tops and brown shorts. Little by little, they stepped in, until the game was about to start.I watched our Starfield Pack players arrive. They filled the stage. The game began, and the referee blew the whistle.When I looked over at the players playing, I didn't see Mark among them. My heart slammed against my rib cage as I watched the Starfield Pack players dribbling and passing the ball.The Bright Star players were fierce. A guy named Max grasped ho
Summer’s POV:As I perched on the silver chair in the dining room and ate my breakfast with my family, it consisted of a cup of tea paired with four slices of bread.“You need to eat more, Summer. You need to gain weight,” Caleb said, as he sat next to me in the chair.He picked another slice of bread and added it to my plate.“Maybe the food is not her favorite. Summer, do you want us to change the diet and add any meals to your menu?” Mom asked, her tone sounding soft, as her eyes met mine.“No, the food is enough. I do not have a favorite meal,” I replied calmly.Cooper grinned and said, “Then we can hire a nutritionist to help Summer improve her diet.”“Let her eat more fruit. She will look better,” Carter said, as he sat next to Cooper at the table.“Alright. We should hurry up after winning the match. I will take Summer to the fruit market to get her more fruits. Which is your favorite?” Caleb inquired, as he picked up his cup and sipped his tea. Finishing it, he set the cup on
Summer's POV:The week rolled by and Saturday arrived. I did not want to leave my room, as I lay on the bed.I felt sick, so I pulled the bedsheets over myself properly.Just then, the intense knocking on the door rattled me as I lay on the bed.I lazily got out of bed and went to pull the door open. I wore a white nightdress that fell past my knees.“What the hell, sis! You look a mess!” Caleb exclaimed, as it was already 8 a.m., but I was still feeling sleepy.“Good morning, brother,” I greeted him with a grumble.“What is wrong? Did Mark do anything to offend you?” Caleb asked, his voice serious as he took a step into the room. Before I could react, he checked my body temperature, but I replied, “Mark did not do anything. I am just not feeling fine.”Caleb scowled and asked, “Should we visit the pack’s hospital?” His voice was thick with concern for me, but I stopped him.“No need. You guys have games to play today, so I will get ready.”I was aware that the game was going to kick
Ava's POV.When I drove to the omega district of our pack, my stomach churned violently. My palms tightened around the steering wheel."Mate!" My wolf growled, urging me toward the mate bond.Gritting my teeth, I parked my car along the roadside. This was not the first time since I found out I was pregnant by Wren. My desire spiked, and I stayed constantly aroused."Damn it. What do I do?" I groaned in my car."Ava, are you alright?" Justin mindlinked me, and I retorted, "I am not. I told you we should find time to reject each other. I cannot accept you.""Don't say that. If you do not want me, who will you accept? An alpha cannot reject their mate, remember. You need me. I can smell your heat," he said, his voice teasing."Shut up!" I growled at him and shut him out, but he mindlinked me again."I saw you drive to that rural area. We can meet up if you want," he ordered. It tempted me, but I didn't want to get caught. If Bryan or my dad found out I was mated to Justin, they would for
Summer's POV:"Summer, you look radiant," Cooper teased me as he watched me stride back into the living room, holding the flowers.Mom's gaze landed on me. Seeing the bouquet of lavender flowers in my hands, her brows furrowed. "Who brought the flowers? Was Mark here?" Mom asked, trying to keep a neutral expression."Yes," I replied, quickly moving to the stairs."Good night, everyone," I dashed and went back to my room, as I didn't want to get any form of scolding from them. Though my brothers had no issues with Mark, I didn't want to stand there and watch my mother ruin my mood.When I entered my bedroom, my hand reached for the knob and I shut the door behind me. I moved to the drawer closer to my bed and carefully placed the bouquet of lavender flowers there. The sweet scent hung heavily in my room, and I giggled at the recollection of hugging Mark.A knock on my door startled me, and I quickly stepped away from the flowers as I rushed over to the door to find out who was there. W
Summer's POV:After my dinner with Mom, I decided to go outside for a stroll. When I rose to my feet to leave the house, Mom studied my face and asked, "Summer, are you sure that you are alright? Or has Mark broken up with you? Did he cheat on you?""No," I quickly denied. "He didn't cheat on me," I said, my voice shaky.Mom studied my face as a heavy silence descended in the living room. "It's fine. Just know that if I found out that Mark is cheating on you, he will never be welcomed into this house."I gulped heavily and nodded. "Got it, Mom. I want to take a stroll outside," I said, and she nodded.I walked out of the door, my heart racing loudly against my rib cage, my hands holding my phone as I checked if Mark had called me. Yet, no calls.The moon rose gradually above the sky, as the time struck 7:30 pm.Just as I took a stroll around the lush gardens that surrounded my father's magnificent home, the smell of the flowering plants filled the air, and my eyes darted to the lavend
SUMMER: When Rita and I walked away from Ava and Emily, I could feel my heart throbbing because I hadn't expected Rita to stand up for me. My heart was racing louder in my chest, knowing that Ava was an Alpha wolf and no one dared to provoke her. I could feel Ava's disdain for me. Her eyes narrowe
AVA: Seeing Rita take Summer's side made my blood boil as I watched them stride downstairs. Unable to hide my anger, I warned Emily to be careful of Summer. "What do you think made Rita close to Summer? Is it because they are in the same class now? Just barely one day, and Rita has fallen for Sum
SUMMER: "Mom, Dad, Cooper, I am off to school," I informed my parents after I had finished my breakfast at the dining table. I stood up to leave. My hand reaching for my bag that contained my books and the few books that I had borrowed from Christopher. "Alright, Summer. Come on, let me see you o
AVA: In my room, as I lay on my bed, thinking about Mark and if Wren will be able to get Mark to sleep with me. "Ava, that is not going to work. Let's accept to be with Justin. He can help you to hide your secret. At least, until the baby is born," My wolf said, but I shook my head. "I cannot tru
