AVAI walked into the meeting room and as usual, everyone was seated, all waiting for me. I really needed to stop being the last to show up.I took my seat next to Selene, adjusting myself properly.“Shall we begin?” Xavier asked as he rose to his feet.“Greetings everyone, and thank you for coming on such short notice.” He began, his eyes narrowing and darting across the room.“Ethan and his men have made their move, we do not know when they will attack or how, so I urge you all to be alert. I have instructed the warriors to tighten the pack’s security.”“My lord,” An elder said, raising his hand.“Yes, elder Pete?” Xavier replied.“Does it mean we need to stop any activity we have ongoing in the pack?” He asked.“No,” Xavier answered, calmly. “You can all continue on your activities, go about your daily lives. I trust that the warriors would protect us and alert us when Ethan makes his move.”“Then how about the meeting with the international wolf pack?” Selene asked, grabbing the a

AVAI rolled out of bed, dragging my feet to the bathroom. My bags had already been packed and arranged. Today was the day, the day the meeting would be held, the day I would finally get to find out about all the other werewolf packs.I stepped into the shower, allowing the cold chilly water to run down my body. This was what I really needed, a cool bath.I had to spend an extra hour inside the bathroom before coming out.I stared at my reflection in the mirror as I applied oil to my skin. Then my gaze fell on the mark.My heart began to throb heavily. Of course, today I'll finally get to meet my new mate and end everything.But somehow, I wanted to feel him, to feel his touch and warmth.“Really, are we gonna start imagining hot things about our mate?” Micha teased, finally waking up from her million-year sleep.“And look who's finally awake,” I said, applying oil to my face.“I needed my beauty sleep for a moment like this.” She replied.“Right,” I said, clicking my tongue as I walk

AVAI sat on the bed in the hotel room. The meeting was over and rescheduled to continue the next day.I stared at the ceiling, hot tears still welled up in my eyes.If only they would see reasons me, if only they would see what danger we're about to enter.“Ava,” Selene called as she entered the room, her hand on my shoulder as she jolted me out of my thoughts.“Are you okay?” She asked.“Yeah,” I sniffled.Silence followed, I could feel her gaze on me. I knew she had a lot to talk to me.“Why did you do it?” She asked, finally breaking the silence.I drew in a long shaky breath, my shoulders dropping as I stared at her.“I didn't know what happened, I just wanted to let them see reasons with me. I didn't want to act stupid in front of everyone.”“You didn't act stupid.” She muttered lowly. “You acted like a true leader.”“A true leader,” I scoffed. “I don't think so.”“Well, I do.” She said, walking towards the bathroom. “And I know no one can beat you at what you do best.”I chuckl

AVAWe sat quietly in the meeting room as one of the wolves reminded us of what we had talked about the previous day.“... And today, we'll be taking a general vote. We need to finalise on our decision concerning what the head alpha had talked to us about.”“Before we begin, I'd like to throw a question at the head alpha.” An alpha of another pack asked.“Yes, please.” I nodded, “Go on.”He cleared his throat as he stood up, his eyes narrowing across the room.“What assurance can you give to us if we all decide to come out to the general public. Do we have any protection covering us?” He asked, and soon, murmurs rippled across the room, everyone acknowledging his question.“I do not have anything to give you as an assurance.” I said, “But I can promise you that if it comes to war, I'd lay down my life for peace to reign.”“Very well then,” The alpha nodded. “Shall we begin?”A piece of paper and a pen were shared around the room, and everyone seated was to write down if they accepted

AVAI got dressed up, we had another meeting today. Since I lost myself yesterday, another one has been rescheduled for today.“Hey,” Selene called with a smile, approaching me.“Hi,” I replied, returning the smile.“Looking good,” She teased, accompanying it with a wink.“What do you mean?” I asked, “What happened yesterday?”She shrugged, turning her face forward. “Nothing.”I was about to say something when Riley and the other girls walked out.I nodded at their greetings before we walked into the meeting room and as usual, we were the last to arrive.The session for today began as the host discussed the treaty with the humans and then presented the final result from the votes cast yesterday.It was decided.We were finally coming out to the world, and we're going to tell them about us.But first, I needed to do something.After the meeting, I walked back to my room. I sat on the bed, going through my phone as I read the latest article on Dr Ella Griffin. Only if they knew the devi
