Threads Of Doubt

Ava's POV It's been a week since Dominic and I started sharing a room and it's been a week since I also realised I've been missing out on the finer things of life. Being in his arms, my head on his chest was easily one of the best things in the world, not to talk about his scent…it should be illegal to smell that good! Dominic had gone to the company, I could faintly remember him placing a kiss on my forehead before he left but I was too sleepy to even acknowledge it. Taking a quick bath, I wore a bum short before throwing on one of Dominic's shirts which was more comfortable than anything I own at the moment. He definitely didn't mind since more of his clothes were now on the other side of the wardrobe. It was like we both quietly agreed to move in together. Once I was done, I threw my hair in a bun and made my way to the nursery where the girls were but first, I went to the kitchen to get something to eat. Since I started staying here, I could count the number of times

Interrupted Claim

Dominic's POV "Alpha,” Sebastian called, entering my office. “I trailed the money and it led me to an account which is also in their names and nothing to do with the development plan.” Orion entered before I could come up with a response. "Alpha, I have some warriors watching the men just in case." He said, sitting down in front of me. I nodded, as much as it didn't have anything to do with our development plan, stealing money from me was another offence that should lead to their death but for whatever reason, I was letting them walk around. "Whatever reason? You mean our mate?” Kael scoffed, "normally, they would be long gone before you even have the chance to rethink it." He was right of course, but at the same time, I wanted to get to the end of this. The Silvercrest Pack who were going to gain the most if the plan fell through, wasn't making any move and now someone was moving large amounts of money from my company. It doesn't feel like a coincidence but for now, w

Her Place At The Table

Ava's POV I've never felt so frustrated in my entire life and I'm talking as someone who had to watch my ex-husband make out with my sister. This was pure torture and from the look on her face, she knew that too. “Sorry, Dom." Elaine said, smiling softly. “I thought you'd be in your office or your room." She added. Dominic's hand remained on my waist, “no I'm not." He replied, not taking his eyes off me. “Have you settled in your room?" She nodded, “it's exactly how I left it…I was worried I would have to start decorating all over again. Thank you.” She was smiling and making eyes at him like she was oblivious to the position we were in. I swallowed hard, looking between them, and as if sensing my discomfort, Dominic’s arm tightened slightly around my waist. “Let's talk later, Elaine." He said and she nodded. Without waiting for her response, we continued to the room. Unconsciously, I turned back to see her still standing there wearing a look I couldn't descr

The Missing Spark

Ava's POV My hand formed a fist as I lifted my head to look at her but she was already looking at me, a smirk playing on the corner of her lips which I probably imagined if no one else noticed it. The others also pretended to be fully interested in whatever was on their plate. Dominic shot her a small smile, “it's Ava's favorite food as well, what a coincidence." He murmured, and her face immediately fell. “And here I thought you guys would be more excited about my return." She said, “I've been gone for quite a long while…I can't believe you have forgotten what I liked to eat.” Isla and Valerie met my eyes from across the table and from the expression they were both wearing, it was obvious they were saying something I didn't understand. And it was at this moment I wished more than anything that I could mindlink them. “Right Alpha," Sebastian called, “you have a meeting with the elders in a few days. It skipped my mind earlier." Dominic nodded and I could see the

Temporary

Ava's POV I didn't know how right Rhea was until I woke up the next morning and I was alone in bed…which wasn't a new thing since I understood how busy Dominic was, especially with the new project he was handling while still running the Pack. But for whatever reason, it felt different this morning. Just as I stood up to begin getting ready for the day, my eyes landed on the piece of paper in the nightstand. “I had something to take care of, and didn't want to wake you." Dominic's familiar handwriting wrote and I smiled softly before my way to the bathroom. Taking the quickest shower known to man, I chose my outfit, a white skirt that stopped mid thigh and a pink crop top. Then I put my hair in a bun and this time I wore a little bit of makeup, nothing serious. Next, I grabbed my phone before stepping out of the room. Unlike mornings where Zayden was usually outside the door to greet me because for whatever reason both him and Dominic didn't trust me to walk to the di

The Kiss That Wasn't Enough

Ava's POV I cleared my throat softly, “hi." I said, finally deciding to pick the call just before it ended. "Have you had breakfast?” He asked, "something urgent came up at the company…once I'm done handling it, I'll come back." I nodded, not trusting my voice to not betray me but that only made him worry since he couldn't see me. “Are you sure you're fine? I know we should talk about last night but…" “Oh, the girls are waiting for me. Can I call you back?" There was a small pause before his voice came up again. “Okay, I'll see you soon and little wolf," he called, “be careful." And without giving him the chance to say anything else, I ended the call. I remained in one spot for a few minutes, not moving, just trying to make sense of everything but I gave up when I couldn't come up with anything reasonable. Rhea tried to convince me to ask Dominic and get clarity but she was his best friend. Even the guys didn't bother with her. “Luna," Zayden called, knocking o

When Certainty Cracks

Dominic POV I was barely paying attention to what Sebastian was telling me. And from the expression on his face, he knew that too because not long after, he just kept quiet and continued going through the documents in front of him. Frustrated was an understatement to explain how I felt. Even though she was denying that something was wrong, I could feel the distance growing between us and I was slowly losing my mind. "Alpha, we need your signature on the second half of the plan." Orion said, coming into the room, his eyes taking a quick sweep of the room for whatever reason. He placed the document in front of me and I didn't bother going through it before signing it. The two of them exchanged a look before looking at me. “If you have something to say, spit it out now." I grumbled. They shrugged, "nothing…just how you look depressed which is the opposite of what you're supposed to be feeling.” Orion said. “You have your mate and it's supposed to be the best thing." I

Something To Be Handled

Ava's POV “Seriously Ava!” I groaned. "You couldn't have enjoyed the moment and not let Elaine ruin it?” The look on Dominic's face when I spoke about the fact that he might not be my mate was going to hunt me forever. "What did you do this time?” Zayden asked, raising his brow at me. "You look like a mess and Alpha Dominic looks like a ghost and that's putting it lightly.” I paused, how do I explain that I was letting the girl, who might be Dominic's ex girlfriend, talk me into doubting the person who had been nothing but the perfect mate anyone would want and how I have probably broken him. "I don't know what you're talking about.” I denied. "And Dominic just has a lot of things he's dealing with, it has nothing to do with me." The moment the words left my mouth, I couldn't help but laugh at my own lie. “The lie sounds funny to you too, doesn't it?" Isla teased, "but really, what's going on?” Valerie spoke before I could come up with any more excuses. “Does it

Dressed Like I Don't Hurt

Ava's POV I ran, until I was in the safety of our room. My heart was racing like it was going to rip out of my chest. "Handle it?” I swallowed, fighting back tears. It could mean anything…right? It doesn't necessarily mean that once Dominic was done with me, he would send me back to the pit he found me in. I swallowed hard, tears streaming down my face and I didn't make any attempt to stop it. Even my wolf, who always had something to say, was quiet. I buried my head in my palm and let out all the frustration I've felt in the past week. Maybe Elaine was right, I was being delusional to think that I would ever become Luna beside Dominic, especially when there were more capable people for the position. This felt like Redveil all over again, but somehow, it hurts even more. “Little wolf, please, just listen to me." Dominic called, trying to open the locked door. “It's not what you think. At least let me explain." He begged. I shook my head even though I knew he c

Almost Too Late

Dominic's POV "Fuck!” I cursed underneath my breath as I ran a hand through my hair. I was so close to kicking the door open but I knew better than making everything worse. I knocked on the door again but there was no response. Kael was pacing around, trying to push himself to the surface. “Mate!" He growled. "I want mate.” “You think I don't want that?” I snapped, “She obviously doesn't want to see us." I stood in front of the room for almost thirty minutes but she still didn't open the door. There wasn't any movement from inside and the fact that I couldn't feel her emotions made it worse. The worst part was how I knew that she was mad but I couldn't say exactly why. My conversation with Elaine wasn't anything bad. Elaine was only worried about how I would handle the Elders when it was time to make her my Luna, especially because of her position. "Alpha…do you have a moment?” Sebastian asked. I hadn't realised he was standing beside me. "Anything that has to
