Ava's POV:

“Looking for something,"  a voice said from behind making me freeze in my skin. I don’t have to turn around to look who it is. The pleasurable shivers and my pervert wolf purring are the signs of his presence.  

The book I was looking at a while ago, fell on the ground with a loud Thud. What’s he doing here? My heart is pummeling against my chest. My palms are getting sweaty.  
 

I unhurriedly bend down and pick up the book and place it on the shelf.  Aware of his fierce gaze on me all this time.  
 

Taking deep breaths, I turned around to the only person who has the power to make me his putty only with a brink.  
 

“Um… I… Me,” I stammered like an idiot. His eyes were gleaming, his blissful eyes making my knees weak. He doesn’t know the effect he has on me. 
 

“Yes beau,” he tilted his neck and smirked. 
 

I looked down, his gaze was doing something to me.  
 

“Wha… I,” Dang! What’s wrong with me. Why am I stuttering like an idiot?  
 

“Why are you embarrassing us,” my Wolf wined, making my eyes wide as watermelons.  
 

Like seriously! Fucking traitor.  
 

“Pack your bags, Your moving in with me,” he said and turned around to leave.  
 

Moving? Like to the packhouse? What the hell does he mean by moving in with him?  
 

“Come again,” I asked not believing my ears.  
 

“Pack your stuff, I'll fetch you around 8,” he said and ran his fingers through his hair. 
 

He said it so casually, while I still couldn’t wrap my mind around the fact that he wants me to move in with him.  
 

What should I do? I should be happy, isn’t this what I want, to be with my mate? But I’m not because I know there I have to witness my mate love’s life daily. I want to be with him, where he loves and cherishes me the same way mates do.  
 

“How can you love someone you don’t know,”. 
 

I remember Xavier saying this, justifying his rejection. Should I move in with him? Maybe after spending some time with me, he will start loving me? What should I do? But there I will see Xavier and Jessica every day. What should I choose, love or self-respect?  
 

Why does love crave so many sacrifices? Love is the most dangerous thing, it can be sweeter than honey and bitter than poison.  
 

Looking at Xavier, who was still waiting for my answer, I can see why Laila majnun and Romeo Juliet, choose death than give up on their love. Sleepless nights, butterflies in the tummy, and drought of food and sleep, nothing matters, only our love matters.  
 

Making my mind, I gazed in the beautiful orbs of my mate and answered. 
 

“No! I won't move in with you. I love you more than myself, heck I've loved you the day I knew what love is but I can’t. I can't let my self-respect be tarnished,” I said and went towards him.  
 

I tiptoed and kissed him on the cheek. I felt him shiver, electricity shot through our bodies. I retreated and left the library without looking back.  
 

I love him so much but I can't degrade my self-respect.  

                        -------------------------------

IN THE CAR:
“He told me to move in with him,” I told Cora and fleur slowly, looking outside through the car window, not being able to look in their eyes. 
 

“Oh,” Fleur let out.  
 

Well, this wasn’t the reaction I was expecting. I was expecting them to throw a blowup but they’re cool as a cucumber.  
 

PACK… MOVE… ALPHA… MATE 


Were the words looping around my mind, then I stiffened. 
 

I didn’t tell my parents about finding my mate, and that too Alpha Xavier. How will I explain everything to them? 
 

“I know what you’re thinking,” Cora said. This broke me out of my trance. 
 

“You guys have to start from somewhere ava. You both are mates, destined for each other. Alpha Xavier being with Jessica and you being all alone, isn’t helping. He hasn’t rejected you properly and you guys can’t go on like this. Mate bond isn't a joke, you both need to spend some time, to be sure of your feelings Fleur said and Cora nodded.  
 

“Yes ava, you both can't run from this. I'm not saying to arbitrate with your self-respect, but you both need to confront yourselves, your feelings,” Cora said softly while holding my hand in hers. I nodded and looked outside.

AT THE HOME:
Entering the home, I was welcomed with the sweet aroma of freshly baked cookies.  
 

Mom knows, they’re my favorite and make it often.  
 

If it was any other day, I would have barged into the kitchen and dug into the cookies. But today, I have lost my appetite. Thanks to my mate, who knows how to give me hell. 
 

I went to my room and plopped on the bed, and sighed.  My soul was exhausted. I don’t know what to do.  
 

Someone knocked on the door, and my mom’s head popped in.  
 

“Hello sweetie,” she said while entering my room. 
 

“I'm fine mom,” I answered sitting straight.  
 

Mom came and sat beside me in the bed, and brought me into a hug.
