Chapter 35

★★★★

She bit her lips walking over to them.

"Leave the clan" Rina said and Lucian glared at Rina.

"I'm sorry for what the werewolves did" Ava said with a sad face.

"Ohh cut the act. We all know you brought them here" Rina snapped.

"Rina!" Lucian called sternly and she bit her lips.

"I didn't know they were going to come today. I didn't tell anyone where you guys resided" She said and Rina scoffed.

"Lucian, she has to leave" Rina said and Ava looked at him.

"Yes. She needs to!!" One yelled.

"We might even be attacked again all because of her!!!" Another yelled and Ava bit her lips hard.

"I'm sorry" She said,

"Your sorry will not bring them back or make us better" One said.

"We want you to leave the clan and never return" Rina said and Ava nodded fighting back her tears.

"I'll leave" She said and Lucian looked at her.

She looked at him and smiled a little.

"I'm sorry" Ava said and turned to go.

"She is going nowhere. It isn't her fault I was followed while coming back" He said and she looked at him.

"I'm to be blamed for their attack and not her" He said and Rina frowned deeply.

"Master, I hope you aren't lying" One said and Lucian let out a dark chuckle.

"You're accusing me of lying?" He asked coldly and the guy began trembling in fear.

He stepped back and shook his head.

"No that's not what I meant to say"

"Do y'all believe me?" He asked and they all nodded.

"Good. And Rina, don't try this again" He said coldly.

"I only want to protect our clan and you" She said sadly.

"I can do that myself but thanks" He said and turned to see Ava staring at him with tears in her eyes.

He held her by the arm and sped them back to the castle.

She sat on the grass near the small river and let the tears flow freely.

"I'm sorry" She said sniffing. She hugged her knees to her chest as more tears kept dropping.

"I didn't mean for your people to die again and now it's because of me they died. It's all because of me" She said and cried harder burying her face in her knees.

He just stared at her and he sighed.

"None of us noticed that we were followed that day. So it's both our fault" He said and she sniffed looking up.

"If I listened to you and didn't go back to the city, my dad wouldn't have found out that I work at a restaurant and he wouldn't have sent someone to follow me to find your clan" She said and stood up.

"Maybe Rina is right, I need to leave. I can't afford causing more deaths anymore" She muttered sadly and went into the house.

Lucian exhaled. Seeing her blame herself for something that's not entirely her fault added more fuel to his anger. He needs to let out the anger, he has to.

He thought and sped out of the castle going to the training ground.

A vampire came as well and he quickly bowed.

"I'm sorry I didn't know you'd be here" He said and Lucian just stared at him.

"Fight me with everything you've got" He said and before the man could process what he said, Lucian was already in front of him and he gave him a punch which made him stagger back.

GARBERVILLE ~~

Lucas walked into the town with some werewolves behind him and he smirked angrily.

The fire which was caused by the werewolves burnt down the whole town. What was left was ashes and dead bodies of the werewolves.

"They escaped" He muttered.

He looked down at the dead werewolves and he squatted. He touched the cut on a werewolf's back and he frowned deeply.

"The dagger" He muttered.

"Search everywhere, they have to be somewhere" He said and the werewolves ran.

"You're starting to be a thorn in my side Ava" He muttered while walking around the place.

He spotted the castle which was still in flames.

"He covered his tracks. Interesting" Lucas said with a small smirk.

RAVEN'S PEAK ~~ CASTLE

Ava was in the bedroom with a luggage by her side. Tears were falling from her eyes as she put some clothes into the luggage.

When she was done, she zipped it up and pulled it with her as she left the room heading downstairs.

"Leaving isn't the best option" Gorya said from the kitchen without looking at her.

"It is. I caused harm to them"

"It was meant to happen." She said and Ava scoffed, pulling the luggage with her.

"Do you really want to leave?" She asked again and Ava stopped in front of the door.

"No but I have too" Ava said and opened the door walking out of the mansion.

She got to the gate and the guards stopped her.

"Where are you going with your luggage?" Zuko asked.

"Just let me leave please" She pleaded and they looked at each other.

"I'm sorry but....." Yuki didn't finish talking before Ava elbowed him and he fell.

Ava kicked Zuko and he flew backwards.

She took the keys from Yuki and opened it before walking out.

She threw the key back into the mansion.

"I'm sorry. It's for your own good" She said and faced front walking off with the luggage.

The city was huge so finding her way out is gonna be hard but she's going to try.

LATER THAT EVENING ~~

Lucian came back to the castle and went upstairs to have a shower. He met no one in the room and he frowned.

He rushed to the closet and opened it only to see it empty.

"Ava" He muttered angrily speeding downstairs and out of the house going to his guards.

"Where is she?" He asked.

"She said she was leaving" Zuko said.

"And you both couldn't stop her?!!" He yelled.

"It's impossible!" Yuki muttered and opened the gate.

Lucian sped out of the castle.

~~

Ava walked down the lonely streets.

She asked for directions and a vampire gave her some directions. After this street, she'd arrive at the entrance of the city.

She would have found it herself but she wasn't paying attention to her surroundings when she was coming here with Rina and Lucian.

She sensed someone coming and she let go of her luggage. She did a backflip dodging the attack only to be stabbed with a dagger from behind by another.

She inhaled as the person took out the dagger. She turned to the person and gave him a punch making him stagger.

He sped off immediately the same as the one who tried stabbing her before..

She frowned wondering why they left and she turned to start walking but she stopped feeling hot inside.

The wound didn't heal and blood began escaping her lips.

Her head spinned as she squatted to the ground. Blood escaped her nose as well and she fell to the ground.

She couldn't move her body anymore because her bones felt numb.

Tears escaped her eyes as pain struck her hard. A loud cry left her lips as more blood escaped her lips and nose. Same as the wound on her back.

Her eyes felt heavy and she was slowly losing her energy.

'A..Ava. W..we w..were p... poisoned' Her inner wolf (subconscious) said weakly.

"It's for the best. At least I won't hurt anyone again" She muttered and smiled sadly.

"H..hubby" She voiced our weakly and like flash he appeared immediately.

He rushed to her, raising her up in his arms.

"Ava" He called softly and she smiled sadly with more blood escaping her lips.

"I..I'm so..sorry" She said and her eyes closed slowly

Tears escaped her closed eyelids and blood came out of her nose as well.

Her body went limp in his arms.

"No!!!"

"Ava" He called, shaking but no response.

"Ava" He called again tapping her face but she still didn't wake up.

Blood was still escaping her lips, nose and the wound.

"Wake up. Your joke isn't funny anymore" He said, shaking her.

Tears welled up in his eyes.

"Ava. Please open your eyes" He said, touching her face.

"Ava" He called, hugging her to his chest.

And for the first time in many years, a tear drop left his eyelid.
