Chapter 52: No rush

AVIONNA’S POV

My wolf had done us more harm than good, forgetting that our entire skeleton was made of fragile, aching things.

The pain was the first thing I felt the moment I shifted back. It was everywhere, but my shoulders burned the most. The wound there hadn't looked like much in my wolf form but now that I'd shifted back, it hurt like hell.

I could see the imprint Cicero's fangs had left behind and my side stung with every breath I took. My leg throbbed badly too and i

  • The Alpha’s Nemesis    Chapter 53: A little normal

    AVIONNA’S POVMy head raged. Every throb of my pulse felt like a fresh artillery strike behind my eyes, sending blinding flashes of white across my vision before I could even manage to open them.I tried to swallow but my throat was pure sandpaper and my tongue sat heavy against the roof of my mouth.My eyes cracked open to a white roof with starry stickers that looked like they had been plastered long ago by a child who had to climb a chair to stick them on.There was no arrangement, just a disorganized pattern that jointly looked like a shapeless fudge.Where was I?It took a second, but the memory finally returned to me and it didn’t take too long for me to realise that I was in Zolani’s room.Whatever tablet she had made me swallow after our conversation last night had knocked me right out and judging by the light I could see seeing in through the curtains, it was morning now.What time was it?I turned my head slowly, looking for a clock or anything that could tell me the time.

    Chapter 52: No rushAVIONNA’S POVMy wolf had done us more harm than good, forgetting that our entire skeleton was made of fragile, aching things.The pain was the first thing I felt the moment I shifted back. It was everywhere, but my shoulders burned the most. The wound there hadn't looked like much in my wolf form but now that I'd shifted back, it hurt like hell.I could see the imprint Cicero's fangs had left behind and my side stung with every breath I took. My leg throbbed badly too and it hurt to keep my weight on it.I'd just gotten injured too, so my healing hadn't kicked in. It wouldn't have hurt so much if I remained in my wolf form, but my wolf had also decided to give up our skin to me so now, I had to bear the brunt of what she'd done to us.However, even as I hurt, I didn't blame her for anything she did. Like me, she had just been ignorant.I could liken her to the woman I was the day I arrived in Saturn Pack. The Avionna of that day had been filled with so much hope a

  • The Alpha’s Nemesis    Chapter 51: Devastated wolf

    AVIONNA'S POV Nothing had ever smelled better.A thick, musty musk swarmed my senses. One second, it wafted like the base note of rich forest loam and freshly upturned soil after a heavy autumn rain. The next, it was the undertone of rotten cedar bark and crushed pine needles dried to a crisp.My wolf's anger dissipated immediately. In a twinkle of an eye, it was gone. Everything faded, narrowing into one thin line, into the man practically dripping with the smell. She lifted her head, and gone was the recollection of why she was angry in the first place.Within her, I was lost too, but not because of the scent that had intoxicated her. What I couldn't understand was why she hadn't shown submission.Just like Cicero who was now back in his human form, chest panting heavily, stewing with suppressed animosity and whose face held a thick layer of discontent, I had felt the irrepressible command in Fabian's voice, but unlike Cicero, my wolf seemed completely unaffected by it.She didn't

  • The Alpha’s Nemesis    Chapter 50: The Beta’s wolf

    AVIONNA’S POV‘Stop’A faint, panicked voice, far away, pleaded to stop, think, wait a minute, but she…My wolf didn’t listen.She had taken the reins and all her vision could register was the Beta standing in the doorway, teeth gritted as though he was struggling to contain himself.The smell oozing off him was acrid, like singed hair and the tang of overheated copper born from the rapid rush of adrenaline that his anger had given rise to.He was a threat. And threats needed to be taken out.An inhuman wail, both a yowl and a roar, filled my ears from inside my skull and my spine ripped out of my skin.Pain coursed through me all at once as my body began to turn from the inside out, an explosion of splintering bone and shredding muscle.No. No you can’t. We’re too weak. He’ll shred us to pieces.I tried to call my wolf to order, but she was too far gone to listen to me. My voice had faded to the background of her mind and pure animal instinct had taken over.It was almost as though s

  • The Alpha’s Nemesis    Chapter 49: No running

    AVIONNA’S POVWhat do you do when there's a male wolf in your doorway, ferocious and angry, yellow eyes fixed on you like he's already decided you're his next target?You run.Did I run? Absolutely not.Following the absolutely tragic ruin that dinner had turned out to be, Zolani led me to her room after fearlessly calling the two grey-faced grown men dimwits, an action I found unfathomably courageous.It wasn't the suicidal bravado of an Omega thinking she could outfight a Beta twice her size either, nor the shallow pride with which Aubrey paraded herself through the Crescent Pack as Lucien's mate.Her courage was of a different kind. It was the fierce, secure confidence of a woman who knew she was cherished, and who knew with absolute certainty that these men would never lay a hand on her.And unlike Zolani, I knew without a sliver of doubt that I wasn't safe in their hands.So when she led me to walk out of the room, I followed but I couldn't help looking over my shoulder to the t

  • The Alpha’s Nemesis    Chapter 48: The weight of grief

    FABIAN’S POVZolani's words struck a place deep in my heart that I had refused to look into for years, buried underneath all the work I threw myself into.The old part of the city needed rebuilding. Trade relations with other regional Packs needed to be established. The Pack’s enforcement needed to be reshaped and restructured, giving average wolves with limited dreams opportunities to aim higher. There was still so much more I could do to develop the commercialization of our Pack. There was always something waiting for my attention. So much needed to be done, and too little had been covered. As long as I kept moving, I didn’t have to stop and think about what I had lost. I couldn’t allow myself to sink deeper into grief when there was an entire Pack depending on me. Their livelihood and sustenance depended on the decisions I made.So, I buried it.I pushed everything I felt into a place far out of reach and refused to look back, not allowing myself to think about it, or feel it exc
