Ava's POV
I woke up as I felt someone shake me and when I finally opened my eyes, I saw a frightened but concerned Mia, pity radiating from her eyes.
"Are you okay Ava?, you just scared the s**t out of me. What's wrong "she was drying my wet forehead with a small tower she luckily found near the bed.
"Nothing is wrong Mia, now calm down and tell me what just happened" I was confused as to why she was acting like this.
"Calm down? Seriously Ava? I just had you shout at the top of your lungs and it took me two minutes to convince you that it's just a nightmare and now that you are calm you just want me to drop the case. A million questions are already running through my mind" she said with a confused look.
Should I tell her about my unceremonious childhood? Wouldn't she treat me like the crap I am? For the first time in my life someone really cared me about. Mia never really bothered asking my past, she just didn't care. And that made me feel special for once. Don't get me wrong I knew that Lucas cared about and so did I but I always felt like he did it more like a responsibility since he swore it when we were pups and believe you don't want to face the consequences of not fulfilling something you swore. No matter how many times he told me that it wasn't the case, I always felt like a burden. I mean he was to young to swear something like that.
"Oh nightmares! Mia there is something you need to know if we are going to share a room" I was going to tell her and if she treated me like I should be like crap, then that's it. it's better to know that I'm being treated as I should be not just posing like someone else.
"I'm all ears" she said and the confused and worried look she wore turned to intense concentration. And I wouldn't help but wonder if she will ever worry about me after knowing what a pathetic excuse my life is.
"Where do I start? One thing you should know is I was adopted and we don't really know which pack I came from." She just looked at me like nothing just happened like really? Doesn't she feel disgusted now?
"My nightmares are a result of my unceremonious childhood, they are just a few of the things I remember about my parents. It's fine at least I get to remember their faces " I said before laughing at my own joke.
"Okay" I said awkwardly as I continued " Okay in these nightmares, my dad is kind of pulling me to a dark room with a plan of locking me there. He said something about stopping me from bearing his mark, I don't know who but it has to do with my mate. He said that I would be a disgrace to him and he would lock me down until the moon goddess gave him a second chance" I paused to check her expression and all I saw was eyes about to pop out and jaw practically on the floor.
"My mom is always telling him to stop and they close the door leaving me in the dark while they argue and after quite some commotion I see blood flowing but I don't know whose" I shrug while she looks at me like a statue
"So, I might have these nightmares more than once and they will be fiercer at times. And I completely get it if you want to have a new room, it's fine..." I started before she engulfed me in a hug tears uncontrollably falling from both our eyes.
"Shut the f**k up b***h. I'm not going anywhere " she said making the hug even tighter. When we finally let each other have a breath I hated the look she was giving me.
"Stop looking at me like that"
"Like what?" She asked completely confused.
"Like I'm a charity case. People used to look at me with disgust registered on their faces I just don't like looks like the ones you are giving me or let's say I'm not used to them and I don't want to since I don't get such generous looks a lot."
"Okay, Ava" she stressed my name and I don't know why.
"Hey Mia, I've never told you my name how do you know it?" I said as she went back to her bed it was already morning so I presumed she wasn't a morning person just like me but I had to find Lucas.
"I don't know" she said and she looked like she just came to the realisation that I haven't introduced myself. "Guess Jessica already knew my best best friend." She just shrugged.
"Who is Jessica?" I curiously asked.
"My wolf. And she's stirring up to meet her friend" she says finding it really amusing that her wolf was excited as if I was her mate or half of that.
"Why don't you let her meet her friend?" I offered. " I'm sure you know how to control yourself"
In fractions of a second her green orbs flashed the darkest black as she let her wolf take control.
"Hi Jess" I said waving my hand.
"Already found a nickname for me?" She smiled.
"Yeap" I said stressing the 'p'
"Well I look forward to being a great friend of yours and Aliyah. I can't wait to see her"
" well you'll have to wait for the full moon" I said rubbing my hands over my tights nervously.
"Sure. See you then" she said and the black orbs suddenly disappeared leaving the green ones that sparkled like diamond crystals.
"Well that was odd. It's my first time talking to a wolf" I said.
"Guess it went well" and I just nodded.
I stood up and went for a quick shower before putting on my uniform. I take my ID and watch and phone before exiting the door. It was almost eight as I walked down the stairs. I wasn't going to search everywhere I knew that if Lucas really wanted to meet her would be at the entrance. That's a technique we used as pups when you want to see the other and you don't know where yo find him/her you should go at the last place you met. As I descended to level one I meet a group of five guys, four and kayden to be specific.
He smirked and held his head high as he walked past me but he stopped before reaching far away.
"Hey newbie" he said the smirk never leaving his face.
"You know my name is Ava right?"
"Who cares? You'll always be the newbie in front of my eyes." He said before walking on to goddess knows where.
I went over to one of the benches and sat down to wait for Lucas. After an hour I found myself judging how stupid this was. I mean I spoke my heart out on him and I really think he would come? Just as I was about to go I saw the weakest looking lucas I've ever seen.
Bruised head, bruised arm, a black eyes and swollen lips. I could barely recognize him.
"Goddess Luc what happened?"
He just looked at the floor and practically run away from me. What?
