AVA

I held an invite in my hand. Kael had sent it to me but his name wasn’t on it.

Contrary to my wild thoughts, it was not a date.

It was just a meeting appointment scheduled for him. What made me feel odd about it was the fact that this was not my personal invite. It was his. It was almost like he was surrendering his own spot for me so I would have a seat at the table.

What made this entire situation even more odd was that he did not offer any explanation towards it. I guess it was a situati

  • The Luna He Left To Burn   Chapter 69

    AVAThe ride back to the estate was quiet.I had not filled it up with thought but instead I had purposely left my mind blank, my eyes peeled on the glass as I watched the surroundings move past. It was not until I blinked away the haze that I saw the estate gates looming into view, my posture adjusting to sit more upright.The car pulled up to the entrance and I alighted from it, my eyes on the main doors.I walked straight from the house into my room. I plopped on the bed with a bit of rebound, my gaze now on the roof. For some reason I let myself think now, as if my room was the space which could handle the outburst of my thoughts.Yes, Ava, the transaction was not a mistake or a rebound. It was intentional.I remembered Kael's words, my eyes narrowing on the roof as if I would be able to extract something from its layers.A set of knocks drew my attention from the ceiling to the door."Miss Ava," Amina's voice came from the other side of the door. "Dinner is ready downstairs. Your

    AVAThe administrative wing was busy as always. Figures moved between corridors with files and tablets, their steps purposeful, their conversations clipped and professional.I had been here before but never to this particular section. The architecture was the same, but something about this space felt different, almost like a hidden layer of the building that only a select few knew existed."Miss Ava," the lady who walked up to me, greeted with a bow. "Please follow me," she said with a gesture after which she moved in front.I was led through the winding corridors, past doors I had never noticed before, until we turned and when facing the entrance, she walked ahead and pulled open the doors. I blinked, almost confused as I stepped inside.It felt like I had left the whole building and stepped into another dimension. It was not because the space seemed out of place for its design or even the furniture and the likes, it was because I do not remember ever setting foot in this wing or pl

    AVAOver the next couple of days, my focus was spent mapping out routes I would need to follow for results. Raiding the first archive was a gamble.Fortunately, I managed to sneak out with this piece of evidence that had given me insights and now, was beginning to morph into a pattern that furthered my investigation. My eyes shifting back to the files on my desk, I found it suspicious that the transaction of such huge amounts wasn’t on any official records.Although I knew that I did not have the full financial records that would have shed more light on the reason for it in the first place, a transaction of this amount was too huge to have been kept hidden if it had a purpose. My eyes narrowing in thought. It was almost like the person who had kept it wanted it to be a needle in a hay stack. I groaned when I had to think because I knew that when I thought about it, it would link back to the situation that went on when those transfers were canceled immediately after the assembly. A

    AVAI fell back into my seat harder than needed, my stubbornness not as loud as before to let him finish, but my eyes were keen on his next words."It has been canceled because another method is being set in place to achieve both results," Father said."Okay," I said, evidently expecting more."The plan was too rigid and needs restructuring, hence it was canceled instead of suspended," Father said, and I started to understand his angle more."As a result, Kael will be involved in a greater fraction since the political families seem to like him as their medium," Father added.I was surprised he wanted to trust this delicate work to Kael."You are assigning Kael to this?" I asked, an eyebrow of mine shooting up just a bit."Yes, he is very vital in this new restructuring and so I have decided to give it to him as a responsibility. Not totally, but he is going to take over and also oversee the operations," Father said.I still couldn't believe it, but when my eyes narrowed in thought, it

    AVAI spent the following days engrossed in work. My goal after the meeting was simple. I was not looking for any sort of revenge but I had to keep myself focused for what I needed.So when I saw no calls or texts or mails. I didn't care at all."Miss Ava," Amina said, my attention shifting to hers at the doorway. "Alpha Grayson wants to speak with you. Or rather, it is a family meeting."Her expression did not carry the weight of what her words implied."Alright then," I said, closing my laptop and facing Amina. She was surprised that I agreed to follow suit so fast. If anything, she was expecting that I would stay just a bit."And breakfast?" I asked."If it is a meeting held at the dining table and breakfast is already served, after your meals the discussion will begin," Amina said."That is great. I am really looking forward to it," I said.Amina's brows furrowed even more, a crease passing her face as my hand already on the door knob to anchor myself to the left direction of the

    AVAKael's eyes caught onto my glaring ones, as I hurried toward them.I paused for just a fraction of a second. In his eyes was that same look, something similar to disappointment, but yet it was an expression I couldn't quite force out of him. My gaze quickly left his as I neared Vera with another two rapid steps. My wolf growled fiercely inside me as I lunged toward her."So I am really hoping we..." Vera was saying. I pulled hard on her shoulder, forcing her to spin around and face me directly."Ava?" Vera asked. Surprise flashed across her face, but she smiled soon after, behaving as if I were her long lost bestie who had suddenly come back."Vera!" I growled, absolutely seething."What are you doing here? I haven't seen you in forever," Vera said, her smile becoming even more prominent. Even though she didn't portray it as such, her warmth felt deeply mocking to me. And then Kael just sat there, casually playing the spectator. Knowing him, there was no way he hadn't already go

    AVA"Alright, Ava. You're good to go," the doctor said, setting his pen down. "The strenuous work didn't cause any setbacks. It's healing well." He handed me both my prescription and a small smile along with it. "Have a good day's rest.""Thank you," I said.I left his office with my eyes on my pho

    AVA"Hello Ava, I called earlier to find out how your recovery is going. I would love to send things over, but I know it would get to Mrs. Hale first. And then to a dust bin."That had to be the third voicemail this morning and I wouldn't have listened to it if I hadn't fallen for it the first time

    AVAShe was not far off at all.A direct question deserved a direct answer. But when I actually stopped to think about it, I was. It was not just because of Lucas, though yes, he was part of the reason.That Assembly was going to be one of silent power play. Even though everyone was supposed to und

    AVA"Eight," I managed, sucking on my lower lip to nudge past the pain. "Nine.""You've done enough," Amina said, racing to my finish line even though I had told her not to."Ten." I managed one last limping step forward before the weight of it caught up with me.If I had seen her there from the on
