Fated To The Sigma Assassin

AVA "Will you help me or not?" I said through gritted teeth. I was frustrated. Our conversation had been going on for five minutes. But, somehow, he still wasn't getting what I was trying to convey. His beady pitch black eyes studied me with curiosity and suspicion. I could perceive the strong smell of liquor oozing from his pores. I felt stupid. I should have sought help from someone else. "So, you want to know about the Shadow Assassins Camp?" He asked, leaning against the wall, his arms folded across his chest. "That's right. I'm looking for someone" I told him. Turning his face away from me, he spat on the ground. "You're not from this town. How do you know about them?" "My friend is a part of them."His eyes darkened and he straightened. He was large and buff. I gulped as he leaned forward, reducing the distance between us. It didn't help that his height was just as intimidating as the look on his face. "You're lying. You are a part of them, aren't you?" 'Stay calm,

KEEGAN Her stare had a way of making me feel like shit. She was the last person I'd expected to meet today. Scratch that, I never thought I would see her again. "You don't recognize me?" She asked and I blinked. I couldn't forget her even if I tried. It was probably as a result of my guilt. The sight of her had shaken me, but I'd refused to let it show. She was more beautiful than ever. Her pink hair suited her as well. Her eyes were bluer than the sea, but I could see the pain ingrained in them. I was well aware that it was the pain I'd caused her. Her scent washed over me, bringing along with it, the strong feeling of nostalgia. Fuck, I missed her. However, I didn't have the right to confess how much I had ached for her. So, I chose to be a stranger to her. "Should I?" I deadpanned, keeping my expression schooled. She was hurt. I could tell by the way she took a shuddering breath, her eyes filling up with tears. My heart squeezed as I watched her struggle to maintain her

AVA The look on Keegan's face was that of disbelief and confusion. This had to mean that he wasn't lying to me. The problem was that, my eyes had never been lilac. Never in my life. I moved backwards and Keegan frowned. "Is this the first time this is happening?" He asked. I didn't give him an answer. I was too caught up in my own head which was already swarming with endless questions of possibilities. So, I took off running. "Ava, wait!"Keegan's voice held concern but I didn't care. I needed to see for myself. I ran until I got to the room I'd been assigned to. I hurried in, locking the door with shaking fingers. Then, I rushed to the bathroom. Once I got there, the sight of my reflection on the mirror hit me hard. For a moment, all I could do was stare. I didn't blink or breathe. I just...stared. My eyes were gleaming with a mysterious brightness. A wave of dizziness washed over me and I stumbled out of the room, fishing my phone out of the pocket of my jeans. With unstea

AVA A smile curved my lips and I moved my lips to Keegan's ear. "I'm not that easy, you know? If you want a kiss, you have to work for it" I pulled away and Keegan's expression hardened. Clenching his jaw, he turned away from me and walked out of the cell. I knew I'd just caught him unawares. He hated it. I knew this because he utterly detested surprises.After going through my morning routine, I went in search of the pack's gym or training centre. When I walked in, I found Venom pummeling blows into a punching bag. He was shirtless, his skin glistening with sweat. He also had his hair in a messy ponytail.He raised a brow when he saw me. "Ava? What are you doing here?"I shrugged as I approached him. "I'm a bit of a gym freak" I told him and he smiled, brushing a few strands of face away from his face."That explains why you were able to defend my sister at the bar.""Want to spar with me?" I asked. He folded his arms, his biceps bulging. They had me distracted for a moment. "Ar

KEEGAN Several years ago, I was hot. It was the first thing that registered itself in my brain. Hot sweat dripped down the sides of my face and beads of sweats rolled down my spine in rivulets. My upper body was bare, I realised. Forcing my heavy eyelids open, my blurry vision zeroed in on my younger sister. She was tied to the ceiling, face down. So, was I. There were six empty barrels in the room and on top of each one, was a pair of candles that lit up the room with a warm glow. I looked around the small room, in search of a means of escape. I couldn't find a single window. However, there was a door to my left. Pain shot through my wrists and ankles when I tried to move. "Key?" I froze at the sound of my sister's weary voice. "I'm here. Try not to move, it'll hurt a lot. I'll get us out of here, I promise" She whimpered, I could already sense her fear. "Too hot. Key, I'm scared. I don't want to die" she croaked. The sight of the glistening tears on her face
