bound by the beast

Ava's POV

I shifted in the bed but I couldn't feel my husband's warm body close to mine.

Perhaps he went down to drink something to help him sleep well. He often had

Insomnia.

I walked down the stairs to get some milk, I felt a bit uneasy and my wolf has been restless for some time now. I had gone for a run and tried so many things to calm her down, but they didn't work. Sage was sitting on the stool in the kitchen, drinking some milk.

The room was dimly lit, he didn't turn on the bright lights.

"Can't sleep hunny?" I asked.

He hummed in affirmation, I kissed his cheek and opened the fridge to get some milk. I stretched up to get the container from the top part of the fridge but I couldn't reach it.

I felt Sage's presence behind me. I turned to him with a small smile on my face, he always teased me about my height and ended up doing what I wanted to do.

"I'm sorry," he looked at me.

My smile fell, "Sorry for what.."

A silver knife was plunged into my chest before I could even understand what was happening.

I fell on the floor, trying to pull it out and get myself together so that my wolf, Lia would heal me but my strength was already drained and the silver had started poisoning my blood. I tried crawling away from him, he didn't move, he just kept staring at me, hoping to see me take my last breath.

"I don't think I can save both of you Ava. The little one is conserving my energy." Lia whispered.

Little one? I was pregnant?

And I was about to die with my unborn baby inside of me.

I was struggling to breathe properly.

Suddenly the door opened and my twin brother, Alvin walked in.

I stopped struggling. Finally, someone to save me.

"Alvin, help!" I cried silently. I could already feel life slowly slip out of my body.

Alvin looked at me with no emotions on his face, "Finally Babe, I was wondering if you started liking my sister or something else. I'm glad you didn't forget where you belong to." My brother walked towards Sage and kissed his cheek, forehead and then his lips. They made out on the kitchen island.

Eww! That's so disgusting!

I couldn't comprehend what was happening at this point.

I was the Luna of Crowfowd pack. My parents were the former rulers and they stepped down after I got married to my betrothed Alpha when I was 23 years old.

They always said they had special children because my twin brother was a failure. He couldn't fight, he wasn't good in academics, there was nothing he was good at, he always failed at everything he did. At some point in our lives, our parents stopped talking to him for some time, and I became their shining gold, but that didn't make me stop loving my brother, although he didn't feel the same. He always thought I was the worst person in the world, he often told me that he hated me even when I tried to convince him that I loved him.
