Best Friend's Mate

Avery’s POV“What the hell is this?” Aunty Vivian screamed at me in anger, I was so scared to hand this over to her because I knew she would react this way. “I…I…It is my pay for the day Aunty,” I replied in fear, this was not good at all.“WHAT!!!” Aunty Vivian screamed charging towards me, I should have run away, when I had the chance this morning now she was going to kill me.“How dare you give me something like this?” She continued to scream as she cornered me to a wall.“I…I… I am sorry Aunty, it’s just that….” Before I could finish speaking I felt a slap across my face, I wanted to cry but I remembered that I prepared for this on my way here.“How much is this?” she asked looking at me like she would skin me alive.My aunty couldn’t even count properly, she didn’t know how much I gave her but she was angry because three dollar notes in her hand meant little money.“It is three hundred dollars,” I replied brazing myself for what was coming next.“What can three hundred dollars d

Avery's POV“Answer me, Angie,” he roared as he walked in front of me.“How many times have I warned you to keep humans out of this house?” He repeated his question wanting an actual answer from her.This man was eight feet tall with dark blue eyes, he was definitely intimidating but I wasn't even scared of him at all.“Angie!” he roared getting more annoyed at the fact that she was ignoring him.“I know, I know Dad,” she pouted as she went to hold him on the waist.I looked at them and realized she was only as tall as his waist, but wait, she said Dad? This man? Her Father? He looked too young.“Maybe she has a daddy kink,” I thought, that was definitely the case, he looked like that kind of man anyway.“But I need a tutor and she is the only one that meets the requirements and she loves lilies too,” Angie said in my defense, trying to convince this man.He growled but didn't say a word, she had won this round.“Dad meet Avery, Avery meet my father, Mr. Amos Stewart,” she said with a

Avery’s POV“What are we going to do?” Angie cried ruining her makeup, she seemed to have exhausted her options.“What about the backups,” her father asked, surely a family like this will have several vendors for things like this.“Everyone is in a fix, nobody can help me right now,” she continued to cry, throwing her hands in the air.Her father didn't say anything, probably thinking of what to do.“What do we do? Everybody is here, it will be so embarrassing, I don't even have a damned cake,” She cried, throwing a fit and stomping her feet like a child.“Stop that, I can't think with all this noise,” her father said, shutting her down.I stood there watching the entire exchange, with their solution in my hand but I didn't want to rush into it, if there was any other solution, I would have preferred they take that, but the more I waited, nothing came, they called everyone they could but no one was responsive. Angie was losing her mind and her father was just watching her in silence.

Amos’ POV “What have I done?” I thought as I took off my clothes, transforming into my wolf form. Running into the woods, I sought sanctuary in my den. It held so many memories not just of me but those of my lover, my wife, and my mate. I hated to think of her as dead, gone, out of reach and I have lived my life like she was here, like she wasn't gone, never in all these years have done something like I did tonight. A few years, months, weeks, and even days from now I was not in any way open to the idea of another mate, it had never once crossed my mind but tonight, I not only found my new mate but I already marked and mated with her. “Damn it,” I roared as I increased my pace, finding this cave was proving harder today, even my nose had lost the scent of it. I kept running and running but it was useless I was going around in circles. “Arhhhhhggg!!!” I screamed as I brought myself to a halt. Sitting on top of a rock and staring at the moon, I struggled to calm my still heav

Amos’ POVAvery, Avery, Avery,” the woman screamed in shock, she seemed to have sobered up.“Somebody help!!!” She screamed again but nobody reacted or tried to inquire what the problem was. They all stood there staring at her as she cried hysterically and ran back and forth in confusion.The woman finally exhausted sat on the floor, she was shaking and whispering some things to herself, she looked like someone who was running mad and looking at her hands, you wouldn't blame her.“My mate is dead,” I whispered as I cursed my fate for always killing my mates.But could I really blame my fate for this one? It was my carelessness, it was always my carelessness. I left her all alone when she needed me the most, I ran away like a coward, and now I had to pay the price.“Cursed,” I whispered as I turned my car around, it was no use entering that house, I wouldn't be able to hold myself together if I did.I drove back home in silence, not able to fully comprehend what had just happened, I ha
