LYCAN KING'S REVENGEFUL BRIDE

--

AVALON POV

--

One cannot know if it is morning or night here, but I know that my body responds to nature, when I sleep for a long amount of time, it should be midnight.

But now that I am up, I think it is morning.

Hell does not do a good job at distinguishing between day and night.

Sure that is why it is called hell.

One thing I am grateful for and am not suppose to be grateful for is, Ares is here with me.

He is here to save me from the hands of this greater demon. From the hands of Asmodeus. Ofcourse through a bargain.

This has been bothering me since I laid my eyes on Ares.

I had missed him so much I could not bear another excruciating second without his touch.

He makes me feel alive. His touch and words makes my heart respond and beat faster, but I love it. I love how he makes me feel.

But unfortunately, Fate is not on our side, Ares and I aren't meant to be. But one thing we have come to understand is that, our love together, can conquer anything else, or so we hope.

I do not know how to deal with this feeling I have for him.

I am sure I am beginning to fall in love with him.

But I am not just ready to tell it to tell him.

Would he thinks I am too fast?.

Did I fall too fast?.

Does he love me as much I think he does?.

Or is Asmodeus right about him loving me for his own purposes.

No!. To there are certain things pretense cannot do.

Things like walking to hell to save your mate?.

Or is it when he left his kingdom for me?.

He made me his queen, he said he is in love with me. He says he would protect me no matter what.

Yes those things.

It is called true love. Has he ever been in love?.

That too I do not know.

I think there are only little things that I know about Ares Elijah Mickelson.

Like me finding out about his middle name from Asmodeus. Like me only thinking about avenging him without knowing too much about him.

He killed my sister!

My mother!.

And stripped me away from the people I love the most. So I still feel this strong hatred for him.

I still feel insecure around him.

Especially he knowing about my revenge and not doing anything about it, does he want me to avenge him?.

The question is, how do avenge someone who already lost everything?.

Ares Elijah Mickelson already lost his mother, just like me.

And his father, unlike me who still has one but isn't functioning.

And at this rate, he would loose his kingdom for good in the hands of Asmodeus, else he has a good plan on hand.

I wish to comfort him. He needs someone to love him. Some one to care about, some one to seek for and cry on their shoulders.

But Asmodeus, as his father, or so she claims, cannot be there for him.

Asmodeus is not a father you can cry on his shoulder.

So the least I can do is make him happy and feel loved.

But if he does not give me a good reason as to why he chose me as his bride and massaacre my family and the half of the Heavens clan. He is done for.

I promise myself that.

"Earth to Avalon,or should i say hell?.What are you thinking about?. "

His voice booms in my ear from behind.

I could feel his fingers tracing patterns in the naked part of my stomach.

The hatred I am feeling for him,didn't stop these feeling, the butterflies in my belly screaming for more.

"Good morning?".

I asked timidly.

"Is it?. It's hell, the atmosphere hasn't changed yet, is this what you had to pass through because if me?. Not seeing morning and night?." He is worried and sounds sorry.

So genuinely, I don't know how to hate him.

Ares been Ares, he turns me around to face him.

"What's on you mind?."

"Nothing, just want to keep hearing your voice". I lied and he caught me but didn't comment.

"Okay. Well how are you feeling?". Always worried about me.

"Yes I am eighteen but I am not a kid anymore. Stop worrying about me" I scream at him.

And it hurts to do that. I just do not want him to care for me. It would not make my revenge that interesting.

He is quiet for a moment, but doesn't look hurt, or he is covering it, then he asks.

"Did I do something?".

I did not reply. How am I suppose to explain how I feel?.

"Tell me" he demands softly .

"Yeah, Ares yes you do things to me. Things I don't want to feel for you. Things I don't like to feel for you, you make my stomach flip when you touch me. You make my breath ragged when I feel your presence in the same room as me. I don't know what to do with this feeling. I don't like it".

I confess this time.

"You don't like what you feel for me?".

He asks quietly. His face dangerously close. Like he wants to kiss the daylight out of me.

I move closer to him. I want his lips on mine.

I don't want him but I do.

I am confused, Ares is confusing me.

"It's okay to feel the way you're feeling. But it is your choice to decide if you want to avenge me or not. I get that you hate me for what I can't even tell you I did?".

"You're confusing Ares. How can it not be you?. The man that killed both my mother and sister had green eyes just like you.!".

Now I am suddenly on my feet throwing my fist in the air.

"Okay, how about this. Did you see me kill your mother?. No!. I was there for a purpose that night, twelve years ago.

I was there to save the coven because your own mother was the one who laid the curse on my family. I needed to find her to know how to undo the curse, but guess what I found?. Her dead body."

I scoff,

"Even if that is true, how about when I saw you murder my sister Sawyer?. I saw it with my own godamned eyes Ares. I can't lie about that".

I am now crying.

I don't want to, I don't want to look weak before him.

He walks slowly to me and cups my cheeks I did not refuse.

"Then would I have allowed her to kill me instead?. I was never there with an intent to kill or shed any blood. Your sister and I knew each other secretly. She was the one I was going to marry because I thought she was you. You both have the same scent. She put you in hiding because she knows yours will be stronger for Ashter. And when Ashter found out you were not the one, he got angry".

He explains.

"And then what killed her? Because she was not me?. You don't know how much I loved my sister, you lack emotions".

I say to him, letting myself away from him so he is no longer touching me.

"Oh really?. I lack emotions?. That is very rich coming out from you Avalon. You make me feel like a murderer, why does everyone make me feel like I am the one at fault when someone I love dies?."

It is his time to scream,but he failed, his voice betrayed him.

He sounds hurt.

Why did I say that?. Of all people I should be the one to understand him the most.

How did we come to this?.

"Ares-" I try to touch him, but he beats me to it.

"Don't!. Don't come close Avalon or I swear-. Just don't!".

He says, his cheeks red and sexy.

He makes me hurt too.

"I am sorry I didn't mean to-" he is gone. Leaving me alone to my space.

ARES POV

---

I am not sure how to handle things with her.

I don't want to say things that would hurt her, so I pushed her away.

She hurt me, she knows it.

And I am not in the mood to go all in, not in the mood to, I am sure if I spend another minute with her, I will mess things up between us.

And we would not be able to leave EDOMEI in time.

"Trouble in paradise?". Asmodeus asks startling me from behind.

This twart.

"What do mean paradise?. This a damn hell"! I yell at him.

"Obviously. Which one if you offended the other Hun?. The queen or the king?".

He continues.

"Asmodeus I don't want to-".

"It is ok to feel that way. You did not do it. She thinks it was you?."

"You were eavesdropping?". I half yelled.

"Oh my have you forgotten that I can hear anything that is within the the lairs of my palace. These is hell. And I am it's prince".

Of course he heard!.

"You can tell me anything, I am here for you. I will answer you like friends we once were and not enemies we are now." He says,

"You can feel what I am feeling, better not say it and feel angry once again." I retorted.

"Yes I can. But better say it and feel relieved."

He advised.

"Fine. She thinks I am not good for her. She thinks I killed her sister, who was my own friend. I never even knew why she attacked me that night. I only came there to meet Jaiyana Heaven, her mother. She was the one who performed the sorcery. She cursed the entire Mickelson and Heavens clans. It was out of my might. That was why I was present there that night.".

"Well, I don't have much to say to that. I don't deserve to. I will only say that you do not leave her to herself. Women tends to overthink things. Make her understand how you truly feel. That she is not the one at fault. You know, those things human does. That was how I did things when I was with your mother."

I laugh and took his advice.

"Well, speaking of your mother. We have much to say on that. So I will say it out. Your mother was carrying you before she was married to your father."

He said, I don't know how to deal with this information.

It can't be true, Asmodeus is a real liar.

There is no way this is true. I can not be Asmodeus' son.

"It can't be. I am not your son!". I yell at him and walk back inside to meet Avalon.

Better we find other ways to leave EDOMEI than to bargain with Asmodeus.

"Avalon. We are leaving. I can not spend another minute with the demon breathing down my neck".

"What do mean?. You cannot just leave-". She starts I cut her off.

"Please Ava do as I say for once".

She doesn't know Asmodeus like I do.

Another minute here will be our disaster.
