Replacement Bride for the Alpha of the North - Chapter 213

Chapter 213: THE CRITICAL SITUATION (5)
Ava’s wolf was redish in color and that was the wolf that came to the room, apparently, the shield that protected her room was only for the monsters, while the other could still enter. That was why Blake could come and go from this room as he pleased.

“Ava?” Dawn furrowed her brows. Her wrists were hurt because the silver ate her skin and every time she tried to pull her hands from the chain, she felt this excruciating pain, as if this silver could literally cut her hands. “Ava, is that you?”

The redish color wolf stared at her from the door, her eyes fixed on her, but she didn’t do anything.

“Ava, please. Help me.” Dawn tried to talk to her, she didn’t know what happened to her after she learned about her mate’s infidelity, but from the look of it, Blake was not the only one, who was going through an insanity. “Ava, please shift and talk to me.”

Thankfully, for her relief, Ava listened to her plea this time and shifted into her human form. She looked… defeated.

Ava always took pride on her appearance, she would always dress prettily in every occasion, not even once, Dawn could remember that Ava was being this disheveled…

“Blake loves you, Dawn,” Ava said, her eyes were hollow, she was staring at Dawn, but at the same time, she didn’t look at her at all. “He truly loves you. He did all of this because he loves you.”

Dawn gritted her teeth, she wanted to snap at Ava and slapped her with reality, but of course, in her current condition that was something that she couldn’t do. She sighed deeply and then looked at Ava closely.

“If he loved me as much as what you told me, he wouldn’t have slept with my sister. He knew better not to engage in that way with Emily.”

“He loves you. It was only a mistake. A one time mistake.”

Dawn felt bad for Ava, it seemed, she was still in denial, just like how she denied the fact that her mate had been with someone else over her, for years…

“You were destined mate for a reason, it’s a sacred bond between two shifters, something that you must cherish. A mistake shouldn’t ruin it.”

Dawn was not angry when she heard that. She pitied her instead. “Is that what you said to yourself when you learned that beta Jason slept with Julia?”

Ava’s eyes dilated, she didn’t like to hear that, because it shattered whatever excuse that she built for herself in order to protect herself from the reality.

“You need to see clearly Ava.” Dawn then quoted what she said in the past. “Both of them were the same, like father like son.”

Ava staggered back, she looked angry, she opened her mouth, as if she was going to lash out to Dawn, but there was no word that came out of her mouth.

“That’s not true.”

That was the only that she could utter.

“I think of you as my daughter, Dawn. I always like for you to be Blake’s mate and have your future together. I like you more than I like Emily. I want Blake to be with you. I don’t want Blake to be with Emily. She is a vicious bitch.”

If this was different situation, Dawn would listen to her grumbling, she could imagine how life was like when Blake was with Emily and Ava had to face that woman.

After all, that was their punishment, living with each other was the best punishment for those two nasty people.

But, this was not the right time to laugh about that.

“She took away my Arren, my grandson. She kept my grandson away from me and now, I can’t see my grandson.”

Dawn’s eyes flickered. “Ava. Do you want to see your grandson?”

“That bitch took away my grandson!” Ava screamed at Dawn, her eyes looked crazy. “He is the only joy in my life and that bitch took him away from me!”

Dawn looked at Ava closely. “Ava, why don’t we go and get your grandson? I know where Emily took your grandson.”

Dawn was not sure that she would buy this, but she needed to try, right?

For a moment, Ava didn’t reply to her, she only stared at her, which made Dawn nervous, but when she thought her persuasion failed, Ava agreed.

“You don’t lie to me, right?”

“Why would I? You are like a second mother to me. Remember when I was little and you would be there for me and cooked something nice? You are the second mother for me, Ava. I felt hurt for what you have gone through. I have gone through the same thing too.”

Ava took her time and then walked over to Dawn.

She had the key.

Dawn didn’t even want to think where she got the key from, all she could see was her freedom and once Ava released her.

She contemplated what she was going to do with her. Dawn’s option was to knock her down, but she didn’t have a heart to do that.

“Come, Ava. Let’s go!”

Dawn knew to avoid the monsters, because she knew where the asturi stem’s scent was stronger, since her father followed the instruction from Zander about where he needed to put it. Obviously, Zander got the suggestion from Dawn, since she knew this place like the back of her hand, thus she avoided the areas.

Not so long after Dawn left, Blake arrived and was furious to know that his mother had released Dawn. He still could smell her scent that lingered in this room.

“Damn it!” He was seething. “I am going to kill her!”

It was not easy to take Dawn back to this house, but his mother had freed her without any scrupulous. That fucking woman had ruined his plan.

Without a second thought, he followed their scent and found the two of them in Lyra’s study room.
