Ava's POVWhen we got to the venue, I saw Logan waiting for me at the entry, and as I entered, I was greeted by a sea of beauty and breathtaking elegance. With the addition of ethereal décor, the location was converted into a sanctuary that was reminiscent of a dream. The ceiling was covered with ivory drapes that cascaded down, giving the impression that clouds were floating in the air. Soft fairy lights created a gentle, starry glow to the room.In addition to gorgeous floral arrangements that included lilies, roses, and orchids, the tables were covered with clean white linens. A warm and intimate atmosphere was created by glowing candles that were placed in glass holders. These candles reflected on the shiny surfaces of the venue. Snowflakes that were oversized and glittering were strategically strung, which contributed to the feeling of a winter wonderland.A dance floor that was completely white and surrounded by seating configurations that were simple but luxurious beckoned to b
Aiden's POVI was nervous, no doubt, because I didn't know how Ava was going to react to what I had planned. I told her she was going to love it but I wasn't so sure if she would. If my plan flopped, it was going to be a huge blow on my face. As we walked to the outer part of the venue, I silently prayed and hoped that I was going to get the best out of it and I also wondered if I should have given her a heads up. "You didn't tell me there was going to be a fireworks display!" "I wanted it to be a surprise.""It's beautiful…""I know right?" The time was drawing near and the lights on the sky started morphing into images. First it was a heart, next it was three kids. "Logan, what's going on?" "Shhhh" The next thing written in the sky was ‘i'm so glad I found you’ and then ‘you make my world complete’"Logan, what's going on?" Ava's POVI looked to my left and right and I couldn't still find Logan. I was so confused and lost because whatever was going on wasn't part of the plan.
Ava's POVand funny how I didn't even realise you were gone.""You we're occupied with playing with the kids and I saw that as the perfect opportunity." "But where did you follow? Because if you had followed the front door, I probably would have noticed. Or did you leave after I went to the playroom with the kids?""Yup. I did. Remember when I popped in to see you guys and I told the kids that I would have loved to play with them but I had work to do..""I think I do.""I left shortly after that." "You sneaky snake!" "Come on! I had to do what I had to do" we both laughed and that moment, we were asked to join in a game. We sat in a circle and then music was going to be played while a bowl containing papers went round. Now, if the music stopped when the bowl is in your hands, you have to pick a paper and do whatever is written in that paper. We started and it was all fun but the bowl stopped in neither mine or Logan's possession until all the tasks finished and they had to get anot
Aiden's POVI sat in my study, totally aware of what I had just done and although it wasn't planned, I couldn't help it. No one had ever spoken to me in that tone because no one dared to, and she herself had also never spoken to me in that manner as well. This was her first time coming at me like that so I should have given her a long rope and tolerated it because I knew she was angry and was probably unaware of her words but I was also angry and that was why I hit her. "There you go, justifying yourself— again!" "Who's there? Who are you?" "No one. I am you!" "What do you mean by that?""I'm that person you pay the least attention to and I'm the one you're most scared of." "I am not scared of anyone, I am an Alpha""Point of correction Aiden, you WERE an alpha. Not anymore." "How dare you say that to me with such boldness!?""How else am I supposed to say it? With fear and reverence? Aiden, I am you so there's little to nothing you can do about it!" "I refuse to be messed with
ISABELLA'S POV Aiden thought I was a fool, he thought I didn't know what I was doing which was to his own detriment. I needed to come up with a plan and I needed to do it fast. I didn't need it to be strategic, I just needed it to work. "How do you think your plan will work if it isn't strategic?" "Nope! Not today. We are definitely not doing this today." "Come on! Why not?" "Because your ways are gruesome and usually wrong." "But we…" "Nope! We do not make a good team, let alone a great one." "You're such a killjoy Bella." "And you're also a terrible part of me! You think the only way out of things is through illegitimate means but I don't believe we have to go that route." "No, no, no. You make me sound like a bad person. I don't always suggest illegal means." "Oh really? You want to know something?" "Yeah.." "Your way sounds good at first and then.." "You see! I knew that one day, you would admit that I make good suggestions." "You would have let me finish fir
Isabella's POV"You spoke of a cover, I thought you were going to change my appearance or something magical?""Didn't I?""I've been looking at myself in my rearview mirror and I can tell that I'm the same person.""Really?" "Uh–huh. I think your magic is broken." "Broken?" She let out a loud laugh "that's impossible, my magic can't break–No magic can break!""But yours is! I mean, I still look like regular old Isabella." "Well, just up ahead are Logan's men soo..""What do we do? I can't approach them looking like that!" "And you also can't turn around or else they are going to pursue you!" "Help me!" "I already did Isa! Learn to trust me! Now, stop fiddling around and drive like you own this car. Also, when you get there, A.C.T N.O.R.M.A.L!" "Good day officer.""Good day to you too miss. May I know where you're headed?""Uhm, we're on our way to Clear Crystal Pack.""We? You and who?" What did he mean by that question ‘me and’ who? I stylishly looked to my left and saw Mira s
Isabella's POV"Hello, Aiden? What's wrong? Wait what? So you called me to tell me that you don't know where the eggs are? Come on, you should know they're always kept in the refrigerator." I couldn't believe this man. He had grown so attached to me that he had become dependent on me for everything."You want me to walk you through cooking an egg? Okay. So do you want to fry or boil it? To fry, you place your pan on the fire, add a bit of oil and you crack it open into the pan. If you want sunny side up, when the underside of your egg is ready, you just get it out of the pan and into your plate and if you don't want it that way, go ahead to flip it once the side of the egg on the pan is ready." I rolled my eyes and wondered how it got this bad. "What? You need me to walk you through toasting bread as well?" I looked at Claire and her mum and asked them to give me a little more time."Okay Aiden, listen up. I was in a meeting before you called me and so immediately I tell you this, an
Isabella's POV I couldn't believe my ears. If Ava was the daughter of an Alpha and his queen, that only means that Ava was never an omega. I wasn't even sure if she knew that. This was a whole new twist to the story but how all this information was going to help was something I didn't know. "I have one more question to ask, and after that, I'll be done for the night." "Okay, go ahead and ask. We're listening, although Claire is going to do the answering." "How did you lose her?" "Ava had just entered junior high and was around eleven years of age if my memory serves me right and I had just entered high school so we were no longer together. Apparently, the bullies had reduced taunting and hurting her and by the time she was in seventh grade, she had friends that were not me. Looking back, we were very happy she was adapting and making new friends but we were just as blinded as she was. On a few occasions, her ‘friends’ would come over here to visit her and we would entertain them
