Aventurine X Stelle Novels & Stories

Her excitement instantly rubbed off on me once we came to a stop in front of a particularly large mall with the most luxurious looking products on display. "I don't know if you know this but Nova Aeria is a gemstone producer. We mine the precious stones and export them to the human world and beyond but we also use it to create some pretty amazing pieces. Like the Werewolf King's crown and most of the jewelery the nobles wear. This is a city of absolute luxury." Ava explained once we exited the sleek, black Mercedes and began the trek into the lavish mall. I could not help but admire every single store within the building that was, indeed, adorned with diamond chandeliers and high ceilings. I

Jade could have easily sought significant benefits from this opportunity, so her lack of greed was truly commendable. Taking the jade, Stella examined it carefully. However, after a long while, she furrowed her brows. "Is there something wrong, Mrs. Henderson?" Jade asked, feeling a bit nervous. Stella's brows furrowed even further, and after a while, she said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Ms. Severin. I don't think I'm knowledgeable enough to discern the origin of this jade."

Evelyn's POV I watched with a mix of fascination and wariness as Veronica glided past me, her movements fluid and deliberate. She came to a stop beside Stella, a calculated smile spreading across her face. With a gentle touch on Stella's elbow, Veronica guided her to the forefront of the gathering. The room fell silent, all eyes drawn to the unlikely duo. “This is my good friend, Stella,” Veronica announced, her voice husky and confident. “She's just returned from studying at the prestigious Royal Academy of Silver Universe Pack.”

Silver’s POV I stepped around my father and Stella and took the nicely wrapped package from Beta Leo. I felt all eyes on me as I carefully unwrapped the paper and uncovered the jewelry box. “He got her jewelry?” Stella asked, her lips pressed in a thin line. I ignored her and opened the box and then gasped when I saw what was inside. It was a gorgeous golden moonstone necklace, a rare and extremely expensive piece of jewelry usually reserved for the Luna. My mouth fell open when I saw it.

“I heard that Van Asten rejected a deal with an upcoming jewelry brand from Italy. I researched their work, Tristan. They’re legit. And I have a plan.” I raise an eyebrow skeptically, but my heart is beating fast with anticipation. “And that is?” “You and me, taking over the fallen deal from Van Asten. For a company called Émeraude. We’ll be their partners.”

engraved on it. The limited-edition forest perfume—he had queued for days to get it, but it was a scent Selena had once blended. A moonstone necklace with a totem at its base—he said the twin wolves represented our love, but the pattern in the middle was the Saintess’s exclusive emblem. All these details I had never paid attention to before now unveiled themselves before my eyes one by one. Someone else had long since taken residence in his heart. I've completely given up.

I ordered. However, the figure remained, giving me a funny response. Whoever it was sure sounded like a wounded cat. I turned back and instantly jumped backward coming face to face with the chimera. It took a step backward too. Surprisingly, I was sure it didn't want to hurt me. I remembered it's last attack and how it let me live. I was probably crazy with too many drinks but I took a twig and inscribed the words, Valentine, to the earth. It looked down and drew a heart on the inscription. It looked at me and got back to inscribing. I watched it write my name and add another heart to my name.

Guinevere’s gaze landed smugly on the expensive dress that Stella was donning. As if realization dawned upon her, she said, “Yvonne is generous indeed. Her family owns an haute couture production line, and the garments can’t be bought even if one has the money. She is a candid and righteous person, indeed. Making friends with people like her would save one a lot of trouble and bring many benefits.” Stella’s eyes flickered as she turned towards Guinevere and said, “Sorry, but were you trying to hint it was me?”

She could never leave my sight, any fall was a soft one, and what she found here she could keep. The windowsills and shelves of her room were lined with her treasures: dried pieces of coral, all sizes and shapes of shells, sea glass, and ice-cream-colored rocks. Today there is heavy rain, and after last night the beach doesn’t seem very safe. I pad down the hallway and slip into her room. I can see the crown of her head and the subtle rise and fall of the blankets. I try for stealth, just in case she is still asleep after all. I won’t wake her if she is. But as I draw close, she pulls the covers away and jumps up.

Unexpectedly all the members of the Argent Family were gathered there, welcoming the two uninvited guests. "Sit down." Loui pointed to the only empty sofa left in the room. Stefan reviewed a slight smile when his nether eyes caught the look of caution emanating from Ash's eagle's gaze. "You suspect us, hm?" Stefan opened his voice as soon as Ash and Archie sat across from him. "Me, my daughter and my father are indeed Purebloods. However, we just arrived in this city a few days ago." Stefan added with a smile and a warm gaze aimed at Ash and Archie.
