Ava Chapter 72
Zeke watched Ava walk into the First Year block before he turned and joined Derek and Myles.“Are you sure about this?” Myles asked.He wasn’t sure about anything except the fact that Ava belonged to him. “The pack might tell your father. We don’t know who his spies are yet,” Derek added. “The fact that she’s human—”‘She’s still mine,’ he said in the mindlink with a growl.‘And we accept that. We witnessed the bond, remember,’ Derek said. ‘I’m just saying if we don’t have a plan yet, we’ve just put a giant target on her back.’Ava always had a target on her back, but at least now she had his protection. Only the really foolish would even dare.He stopped walking when he saw Jared coming out of his car. He and Shadow watched him as he looked around and then stopped his gaze on them. Shadow growled.Jared’s eyes glowed in anger before he turned away and started walking towards his classes. Shadow didn’t like that. That wolf had sent his minions to spy on Ava, and then he dared turn hi

Ava was angry that Ezekiel and his friends practically walked her to her block, but once she was alone, she realised they probably knew something she didn’t. She still had no idea where Ezekiel had been most of the previous week, and now she didn’t have the guts to ask what he had done to Claire. Was the she-wolf waiting somewhere in the background to take her revenge? Corner her in the bathroom again? Was she going to send her minions? Or was Claire not here at all?The other students had surprisingly left her alone, but it hadn’t stopped the whispers. What she wouldn’t do for supernatural hearing right now. Not that she would do anything about it, but she would probably find out what the hell was going on.“When that demon wolf tires of you, let me know. I could use a bed warmer—”She looked up to see Douche Dexter in front of her, but someone nudged him, and he stopped talking. And then, surprisingly, he walked past her without another word and without shoving her. She knew why.

Ava was hungry, so she rushed to the dining hall for lunch, hoping Ezekiel wasn’t there. She didn’t want another repeat of what had happened in the morning. Though people had mostly left her alone, she seemed to have been branded as Ezekiel’s property. Her heart fluttered stupidly at the thought, but she pushed it aside. She wasn’t property. She belonged to no one.Besides, Claire mentioned that Ezekiel’s pack wouldn’t allow him to be with a human, so if anything did happen with him, she would be nothing but his plaything. Not that she was trying to be his Luna or his plaything. Thinking about that brought her thoughts back to Claire again, and with that, all her guilt came flooding back. What had she done? Ezekiel would never have had to do that if she hadn’t been so weak. And now the most fearsome people in their community were coming to ask her about that. How would they do it? Could they sense it if she lied? Did they use magic to read minds? Were they like Mr Patrick?Would th

Zeke watched Ava walk into the dining hall before heading towards the Administration block.‘He told her to run away from us,’ Shadow pointed out.“Hmm,” he answered with a frown.‘He must die.’He rolled his eyes. Jared would die soon enough. Right now, he had the Council members to deal with. He couldn’t blatantly break the rules just before going to the meeting. But surprisingly, Shadow had been very laid back about that interaction with the bastard. They had followed Ava from when she had left her block and heard the whole conversation, but Shadow hadn’t tried to kill him on the spot.It was probably true. Jared had been messed up pretty badly after last year’s evaluations and the death of his friend. Jared hadn’t spent nearly as long in Isolation, but it had still fucked him up. Things didn’t always work out for him, as if his wolf senses sometimes failed him. Sometimes he was sure that was the reason he was doing so many fucked up things this semester. But he didn’t give a shit

Councillor Iulia smiled when he said that. It was a condescending smile that he and Shadow didn’t appreciate, but they both remained calm and watched her. The last thing he wanted to do was to piss off people who could end him in seconds.Iulia closed a file in front of her and pushed it away.“I am curious about you,” she drawled.“How so, ma’am?”“Your academic career has been spotless up until now. You rose the ranks in your very first semester and have proven time and time again that you are in control of your other self,” she said as she sat back in her chair and crossed her legs.Her eyes didn’t leave his face like she was searching for any reaction.This was where he and Shadow excelled. He had been fooling people his whole life because letting anyone else know the depths of Shadow’s depravity was a death sentence. So he kept his mask on. Kept his calm.“The only student trainer we have had in decades, and you also maintain the highest grades,” she continued.“Yes. I take my re

Ava sucked in a breath when she saw Ezekiel walking out of the dean’s office. Why was he here? Had they got him already? Did they know what he’d had to do for her?Ezekiel’s gaze landed on hers, changing from amber to red and then back again. He had a look on his face that she had never seen before. Was he scared? Wolves were taught to fear the Council from when they were pups; they were their Boogeyman. The all-seeing, all-knowing. She knew then that they knew everything, even her escape attempt through the forest.Ezekiel looked at the dean, who was watching him intently, and then back at her. “You may go now, Mr Michelson. They’re waiting to escort you out,” the dean said.A muscle in his jaw ticked. Now, she wasn’t sure if it was fear she saw on his face earlier. She didn’t have wolf senses, but the second he walked out of the office, she had been so sure she felt that fear. Maybe she was just projecting her own fear onto him. “Mr Michelson,” Dean Russell said firmly.Ezekiel ig

Ava was numb as the Council guards led her out of the building. The Council’s decision had fried her mind, which was probably a good thing because the foursome in her head disappeared, and she’d been wide open to their magic as she had left the room.Even the dean’s cold look had failed to bring a reaction from her.She just couldn’t think. Zeke was sitting by the fountain when she let herself out, and she saw him release a breath as if he had been worried. She looked back as the doors were closed behind her, and she felt like her fate had been sealed. They had seen her in person; they knew she was human! She hadn’t thought it would be that hard for the councillors to admit their mistake. Should she go back and beg?“Ava.”She looked back at the Alpha waiting for her to join him and then back at the door. Why was it so hard for these people to just do the right thing? Would they rather she died there instead of sending her home?She was going to die.“Ava.”She was going to die!He

Zeke showered and changed in his dressing room before he made his way to the beginners' training room.He'd almost marked her on a desk in a public library. Without a care, like an idiot.He could have killed her. The whole reason he had taken her to one of the soundproofed study rooms was so he could ask her what happened with the Council members, but she'd been panicking, and one thing had led to another. Instead of asking if she was going to get carted off for whatever part she had played in Claire's disappearance, he'd been thinking with his dick. And now he'd spend hours torturing himself, not just because of his fears of the Council's next move but because he could still feel her all over him even though he had showered. What had his little mate done that Saturday? The dean said Claire and her friends had gone into town, but he had explicitly told Ava to wait for him. Had she actually gone to town, too? He had tried to keep her name out of his head, but the Council had asked

The Silver Daggers. A bunch of fucking neanderthals who’d dwindled their numbers down before the Council had formed to take them down. Probably the only good thing the Council had done.Psychopaths on the same level as Hansson, with their well-documented kills and torture methods. And they had somehow dug up enough information on his mate to have a recent photo of her and also know which orphanage she’d been at before being adopted. In which world was that the kind of information someone kept to themselves?Shadow growled in his head, pissed off with Ava’s family for the first time since meeting Roland. ‘Let’s go hunt them down,’ he ordered. Oh, that was a given. The only question was how to make Ava go back home. Dealing with Hansson together was one thing. They had been trapped at the academy and had no other option. But he would not willingly let Ava face another asshole like Hansson. He would not risk her life. “Answer me,” Ava said, stepping closer to Nate.“No, I don’t thin
Ava Chapter 218
Ava glared at her brothers after she pulled a T-shirt over her head. The boys had accepted shorts and were already eating bowls of meat and vegetable stew that they had been offered. How could they even eat at a time like this? She took her place beside Zeke, and the older woman who’d given her the clothes gave her a bowl, too. She recognised her as the Luna immediately. Audrey had come forward before Nate could tell her anything about the secret they were keeping.When her father first brought her to visit the Moonvalley Pack, she was impressed that the pack's protection fell on all their shoulders equally despite being so traditional in other roles. Her father said Luna Audrey could kick ass as hard as Alpha Barrett.“I’m sorry, Luna. I don’t think I can eat right now,” she said, smiling at the woman.“Your wolf needs to eat,” Luna Audrey said, pushing the bowl towards her. “It’s true, isn’t it? You shifted?”Her reputation as the only human in the Mystic River territory had spread
Ava Chapter 217
The air was sharper, and his eyes picked up the smallest grain of soil—as impossible as that seemed. He could hear the smallest critters scurrying under the decomposing matter on the forest floor. His hind legs launched him easily over shrubs and fallen trees while the wind rushed past his face with an almost overwhelming force.His heart pumped with the surge of adrenaline, and below that, the strange, unfamiliar energy. What the hell was this? Nyx hadn’t stopped running since they shifted when they reached the forest. Keeping close behind her, Shadow followed the almost non-existent trail. Even with his stronger senses, Alpha Morgan’s scent wasn’t there at all. And the warriors he’d taken with him must have been some of his best men because they’d hardly left a trail.He’d expected Nyx to flounder a few times because she was still new, but the other half of him hadn’t lost the trail even once. Not that he expected anything different. Even without the strange boost they seemed to
Ava Chapter 216
No. No, no, no.Her fault. Why the hell hadn’t she trusted herself?Ava was out of the door before anyone could stop her. The guards had already gathered in the front yard, discussing what was happening. “...they’ve brought the bodies to the morgue. Can’t recognise them...”“...might be the same rogues that attacked the Moonvalley pack...”“...they didn’t make it there, so we still don’t know what’s going on over there...”Her fault.It was Emily and Dexter all over again.She shouldn’t have stayed in the background when she knew she was strong enough to help.“Ava,” Caleb called out as he followed her down the front steps. “I’ve already organised the search party. The trackers are already out there, and I’m going to join them. Stay here and—”“Even now, you’re trying to stop me?” she asked, facing her brothers.“It’s not safe—”“Then tell me why the hell you’ve kept me inside when you know I can help?” she growled.Caleb didn’t look away from her, but Nate, Alex, and Nick glanced a
Ava Chapter 215
Ava opened the back door again and glared at the wolf leaning against a tree at the edge of the forest. It was long past noon, and there hadn’t been any word from her father or the people he’d left with. Nyx growled, growing restless. She should have listened to her wolf from the start.Nyx was not very vocal, but she understood her wolf’s emotions perfectly. And it wasn’t helping that something else was simmering just under her skin, ready to burst. It had worried her when she woke, but there were bigger things to worry about now. Anxiety made the wait unbearable.Her father had always taught her to stand up for herself, so whatever rumours were going around about Zeke shouldn’t have made him go to such extremes. It was easy to prove that he was innocent. Why did it feel like she was missing something?That was the only thing stopping her from going after him. The fact that she didn’t know what was really going on. Her brothers were protective but always let her make her own choices.
Ava Chapter 214
It was strange to see all four mini Morgans looking at him directly without an ounce of fear. He and Ava sat on one couch while the brothers sat on the massive leather one that ran along two walls of the lounge. They had the same ash-blond hair in different styles and the same piercing blue eyes. Alpha Roland’s genes were clearly superior because he couldn’t see a trace of their mother. Even the judgy expressions were the same as their father’s.“Is this what they teach you in your pack? To disrespect a girl in her own home?” Caleb growled.They’d remained quiet until they herded him and Ava into the house. The rest of the pack had remained at the school, but he could sense some of them coming closer.“I meant no disrespect—”“She’s my little sister,” Caleb interrupted. “Don’t give me that bullshit.”As the oldest and the one who would take charge after his father, Caleb would have been given the same lessons as he had. At least the basics. Did he not understand what a true mate was?
Ava Chapter 213
Okay, now that was messed up. Nyx went on alert when all the attention focussed on Zeke, and Ava’s blood started to simmer. “Why are you looking at him?” she asked, finally lifting her head to look around the room.She’d anticipated some backlash once everyone heard the whole story about Hansson but assumed it would die as quickly as it usually did when she caused her father some trouble. It was why she’d not wanted to cause any waves for minor things. But for them to call Zeke a demon and blatantly suspect him of such a heinous crime?“He’s walking around with you, so something is obviously wrong with him,” Riley muttered from somewhere behind her.“As opposed to a wolf who can barely shift and can’t be admitted to an academy where a mere human was accepted?” she growled, not ashamed to hit below the belt.Several gasps brought her back to her senses, and she breathed deeply to calm the storm brewing inside her.The last time anyone had been a threat to Zeke, she’d levelled him in
Ava Chapter 212
Zeke glanced back at the women who reminded him so much of Amber and her cronies before allowing Ava to pull him toward several single-storey buildings nestled under the forest canopy.‘Are you sure you don’t want me to take care of them?’ he asked again.Time had already proven that they had to get rid of their enemies before they took things too far. As the future Alpha of his pack, he’d learned that lesson well before his peers. Ava would have to start thinking like a Luna—Alpha?—so the burden of leadership on her shoulders wouldn’t become too heavy to bear. ‘I’m more worried about this damn meeting. Let’s just find out what’s going on.’He could relate to that. After living in fight-or-flight mode for so long, it was tempting to let all the other shit go. As they approached, he sensed that many people had gathered in one of the buildings, and the hum of their conversations drifted to his ears. “Is this where you learned to fight?” he asked aloud. The buildings looked like they
Ava Chapter 211 - Happy Ever After?
There was something weird in her body. Or could Ava call it that when her whole bond with Zeke was strange? But as the wind blew her red, curly hair and the morning sun warmed her face, she knew something within her had changed. Again.Was it Nyx? She hadn’t been acquainted with her wolf long enough to know if something was wrong, but surely she wasn’t supposed to keep getting stronger. When she marked Zeke and they defeated Hansson, it felt like they were already at the top of their game. But now, something coursed through her blood, a fire that hadn’t been there before, almost fighting with the constant darkness inside her. It was as if, without the threat of death, Nyx was free to be herself and lean into her bond with Zeke and Shadow. Nothing was holding her back now.But there was something else to consider. Something that could have been the cause. Her parents.Alpha Diego was stronger than any wolf she knew, and he’d said his parents had both been like him. The true mate bond ma
