Ava's POVThree weeks.It has been three weeks since I last saw him. After I found out that he was the alpha of the North pack, I haven't seen him since. I wasn't complaining though, my wolf was. She has been a hot mess for the past three weeks. Sometimes she wouldn't talk to me for days, other times she would just sit in a corner and cry. It was depressing to see her like this and I needed something to help get her back in her good spirits.I knew that if she was close enough to him, she would feel a little better. So that was what we were going to do today. I was going on a wolf hunt for my mate to appease my wolf. I would do anything for her, and if that meant facing someone who wanted nothing to do with us, then so be it. She was worth it.

Ava's POVOpening my eyes I let out a tired yawn and stretched out my sore limbs. I rolled over on my back and thought back to what happened last night. I was beyond exhausted from all the events from last night. I checked the time on the alarm clock and was shocked by what it read.It was 3 pm in the evening. I couldn't believe that I had managed to sleep through the day and still woke up feeling exhausted. I was feeling a lot better, no thanks to Jayden.Slowly all the events of last night came rushing back to me and I couldn't help but feel sad. I wanted to curl up in a ball and cry my eyes out. After I had confirmed to Jayden that I wanted to have sex, he left. That asshole left me in pain. That was rejection on a different level. I was now more than a hundred percent sure that he w

Ava's POV"Where am I?" I asked."You're at my parents' cabin" he answered with his back to me."Why am I here? Are you the one who paid those guys to find me?" "Of course I paid them to find you. I didn't want you to miss your own father's funeral, now would I?" at hearing him say that, I realized that he was dressed in a black suit."He's dead?" I asked in shock."Yes. That asshole alpha from the North pack killed him" he said, clenching his jaw in anger."Wait what?" I don't even know why I cared if he was dead or not. He has been dead to me for a very long time now. I guess I was shocked that he was now actually dead, dead.

Ava's POVA few months later..."Get her!" an angry voice shouted behind me.A group of men began chasing me as I ran through the market with a bag full of stolen goods on my back. Dodging people who were shopping, I increased my speed and ran into the woods. I knew that if I ever made it into the woods that I would be safe. I could easily hide from them, since they weren't as familiar with the woods as I was. It was only normal that I knew the woods like the back of my hand since I have been living in a cave for months now. After that horrifying day, everything changed. I changed. I was never the same as before. One would say that I was punishing myself for the crimes I committed that day, and I

Ava's POVI couldn't look away from his smoldering eyes that seemed to be able to see into my soul. It was like he was able to see all the pain I have been hiding inside and letting me know through his eyes that he was here for me. It was strange seeing his concerned face directed in my direction. He seemed so sincere and guilty, that it broke my heart knowing that he was sad. It was weird. It must be a mate thing, because he has hurt me, but yet still I was heartbroken because he was sad.Weird.I could feel the sparks from where his hand was connected to mine. I was finally getting back control over my body. I squeezed his hand just to make sure that he was actually here and I wasn't imaging this.He smiled and leaned forward to p
