Oh Really 25

Ava was shocked when her eyes shifted to lan. The way he was glaring at that boy who was grabbing her hand, it could make anyone scared. He looked fiercer as if he would kill the boy at any time.

The boy immediately released Ava’s hand. But lan did not leave his hand, which shook him to the core.

lan glanced at the other two boys who were behind him. They stepped back and ran away from there in fear.

Ian twisted the boy’s hand. The boy groaned in pain.

Ava was watching everything with wide eyes. She remained standing there without moving. When she heard the sound of a broken bone, she gasped. She immediately grasped Ian’s hand.

“What are you doing? Leave him,” she said, trying to remove his hand from the boy’s wrist. That boy looked like he was dying.

lan turned his head toward her, furrowing his brow, but he let go of the boy’s hand.

The boy ran away with his broken hand, weeping in pain.

Ava gulped when she saw Ian looking angry.

“You should have thanked me. But rather than thanking me for saving you, you were saving him? Then why did you pretend like he was harassing you? Or you also wanted to play with those boys?” Ian asked while glaring at her, showing her that he did not like what she did.

“IAN”

Ava yelled at him.

She could not prevent herself when Ian accused her like that.

Her yell caused him to raise a brow. “So the little nerd has a voice too?” he asked.

His ferocious expression brightened.

Ava looked away from him and said, “Just because I always stay quiet, that doesn’t mean you can say anything to me.”

“Oh, really? What if I continue to say? What will you do to me?” Ian asked and stepped toward her.

She took a few steps back. Her back pressed against a wall. He stood in front of her and looked into her eyes.

She never forgot the damage he caused her. Even if she tried, she would not be able to forget that.

“As I said, I will never come across your way. So it’s better if you-”

“You what?” Ian asked, lowering his head to meet her eye level.

His cologne brushed against her nostrils. She tried to hold her breath. Because his cologne would almost certainly make her heart skip a beat. So she should try to control her shameless heart.

“It’s better for you to stay away from me,” she said with a cold voice.

Her voice stunned him. It was true that Ava was also surprised by her confidence. However, it was not the time to give herself a pat on the shoulder for that.

“I think that storeroom punishment was not enough for you, huh?” Ian questioned.

His cool expression turned hard. Though Ava could feel his cold aura, she tried her best to remain calm in front of

him.

‘I can’t look like a pushover,‘ she reminded herself.

She tried to move away, but he grabbed her hand and pushed her against the wall again.

Ava felt a pain in her back. It was because of her wounds. She hissed in pain while touching her back.

lan’s hand loosened as he asked, “What happened?”

He thought he had hurt her hand. He did not grab it that tightly, though.

But then he noticed her hand on her back. He assumed that she was pretending.

“I can’t believe how weak you are! You can’t even handle a single push? What are you? Made of glasses that can break anytime?”

Ava closed her eyes tightly as she tried to endure the pain. She muttered angrily,

“It’s always you who give me pain.”

He ignored her comments and stated, “When that boy was dragging you, you did not even try to break free.”

Ava raised her head to look at him and replied, “I did.”

“How? By weeping for it? How come you do not know any moves or self–defense? What did your father do for all these years? His daughter is already a weak omega, and he did not even teach her self–defense.”

His words tore into her heart. She stared at him for a moment before saying,

“Stay away from me. Maybe you are Alpha Ian, the future Alpha for the pack members, but for me, you are the boy who rejected my matebond.”

Without waiting for his answer, Ava turned to the right side. She strode away from him, heading for the cafe.

She did not want to see his reaction or listen to what he would retort.

Her father died when she was a small child. Today, Ian hurt her again by talking about her father. He called her weak, and he blamed her for what those boys were trying to do with her.

As if her very existence were his problem.

She did not know what he wanted from her now.

While walking, she wiped her tears that were rolling down her cheeks unknowingly.

She was missing her father. Her memories of the past returned to her. She could still remember how her father tried to save her and her mother. He was unable to shift, and he was killed.

‘What if one day I end up like my dad? I also can’t shift now‘ she asked herself.

Ava entered the cafe and tried to find her friend. Her gaze fell on them, and she walked towards them. She sat down beside Abigail and Debra. She told them everything, except for Ian mocking her father.

“Wait. You mean Ian Dawson saved you?” Debra asked.

“Yeah.”

“But wasn’t he the one who had left you unconscious? He was such a cruel boy last week, but now suddenly he has become a gentleman.” Abigail said it with a doubtful look.

They had heard from Ava about what Ian had done to her after the match. Luke was unaware of this, as they did not want another fight.

Luke was busy with his other friends today, so only three of them were available to talk.

“Maybe he realized his actions were wrong,” Debra said.

Ava shook her head. “I don’t want his sympathy. And he didn’t save me because he wanted to. Maybe he saved me so he could mock me again. You can’t believe it; he blamed me for everything.”

Ava had her lunch with them while talking with them. They all went back to their classes after that.

After all the classes, when it was time to leave, Ava remembered something.

She looked at her friends and said goodbye to them. Abigail and Debra both offered to drop her off. But Ava denied them, saying that she would go home safely.

When Ava saw that her friends had left, she started to look for a specific person.

Her gaze was drawn to the power gang members, who were smoking and conversing. Some of them were lounging in the trunks of their cars while the others were sitting on their dashing bikes.

‘The Power Gang‘

After inhaling deeply, Ava moved in their direction.

She saw one of them say something to Ian. He turned his head to look at her.

Ava came to a stop in front of them. Her eyes were avoiding their leader.

“Oh! Now you have got some brains? You came here to thank me, right? No need. I am not interested,” Ian spoke out, gazing at her.
