Avoid Novel Novels & Stories

Avery had been arguing for weeks with the three of us that Nova was going to need to testify or it could go seriously south but I argued against it in case any of this information came out. Avery’s argument has been that this was why she needed to testify, to get ahead of it, if she wasn’t already on the witness list and got added it was going to look like we were just trying to cover our assess. Life lesson. Listen to the smart lawyer who knows what she is doing. There is also a regret between us. If we hadn’t gotten her rejected by her mate would they be able to use this against her so well? Nova makes a distressed groaning noise. “Shit. Why didn’t he tell them about my missing wolf?”

That's why I came late. "Oh." Marvin didn't answer. "So what should I do for this to not happen? What if someone takes advantage of such loopholes again? Marvin sighed. "You know stuff like this is pretty common now. I don't think a foolproof exists. But I can tell you that before drinking, you can test it. Or just don't drink anywhere other than hour home ground. It's not like accidents won't happen in your place but yeah, you should be on alert whenever you go out. Places like these are like sharks that don't even spit out bones."

Nova was just the perfect tool. Nova was the only person who had ever been truly immune to the Ashford currency. She didn't care about the company, the money, or the power. She only cared about her mother, and when she saw how toxic my life was, she chose to walk away from the safety net. She was the one who was truly free. And that infuriated me more than anything. I poured another glass. The sound of the waves washing up on the shore was the only thing I could hear, a low, constant roar that drowned out the noise in my head.

Kael was more than annoyed as he walked away from Nova’s room. Every instinct screamed at him to turn around and stay. His wolf certainly wasn’t helping matters. The beast had spent the entire walk arguing that Nova was going to escape again the moment he took his eyes off her. Honestly, Kael wouldn’t have been surprised if she tried climbing out the window before he even reached the council chamber. Five years hadn’t changed her stubbornness. If anything, surviving the apocalypse had made it worse.
