Ava’s POV
It had been two days since we had dinner with Stephen and his father. I really liked Uncle Harper. He was a kind and gentle man. In particular, he was kind and considerate toward my mother. It was the first time that I witnessed my mother appearing to be content with another person. I was very glad for her.
I got up a little bit later than usual today. Last night, any mother went shopping with Luna Carolina. So when she got back to her house, she showed me all of the dresses, including the one she said she would wear to her wedding. After that, we engaged in a conversation for a span of time. I failed to keep track of time and ended up sleeping in the morning.
It was my mother’s suggestion that I should remain at home today if I was feeling sleepy. I refused and decided to go to my university.
When it came to my studies, I could not make any concessions. Perhaps that was the reason why people perceived me as a nerd.
Was I really a bookworm? These books were not even novels; rather, they were books for study. Even though I did not find them interesting like novels, I knew that in order to have a bright future, I needed to acquire some knowledge.
I opened the closet door in order to retrieve a dress for myself. I made sure to check out all of the new dresses. When I started looking for a dress, I found one that was either less attractive or baggy.
I came across a long cotton dress in a blue color. I hurriedly got ready.
I took a quick look at myself for a moment in the mirror. My eyes were drawn to my dark brown hair. I would not lie, this color really suited me. That shade of hair made my face appear lighter than it actually was.
I then put on my glasses and made a loose bun with my hair. I looked for a pair of sneakers and put them on.
My thoughts turned to the wedding of my mother as I made my way down the stairs. I noticed that my mother was not at home. I understood that my mother went out for work.
I noticed she made breakfast for me before leaving.
“Mom, you work so hard for me. I pray that your mate will love you always.” I mumbled while having my
breakfast.
Considering that I was already running behind schedule, why do not I start with breakfast?
Alpha and Luna finally decided on the date for my mother’s wedding. It was decided that the wedding would take place in the pack house this coming weekend.
Alpha desired to host the wedding of his gammas at his residence. On the other hand, they liked my mother a lot. Because my mother had saved Luna Carolina’s life, they felt that they owed her. So they wanted to give her a good life.
After having breakfast alone, I left my home. I took a stroll to the bus stop while taking in my surroundings.
It was a bright and sunny day. Today, the sun appeared to be in a good mood, as evidenced by its full glimme
When I arrived at the university, I chose to ignore the looks of those around me. Ever since people saw me at Stephen’s party, they started to talk about me more.
Some boys even came to say sorry to me, saying that they did not know I could be this hot. They asked me to hang out with them. I felt really embarrassed by all of these.

I decided not to go to any parties again. Suddenly, memories flooded into my mind, thinking about parties.
I had attended two parties, and at both parties, one person left his bitter memories for me.
No matter how much I tried to forget lan’s words that he had told me that night in the room, I could not just shove them out of my mind. They kept replaying in my head.
It took me a few minutes to reach my class, which was on my schedule. But when I saw the professor looking angry at everyone, I took a step back.
I saw Abigail waving at me. Upon seeing me arrive at the university today, she appeared to be surprised. She assumed I would not come because I had spent so much time with my mother last night.
As I moved from the window to the door, Abigail signaled that I should look at my phone. I noticed a message from Abigail.
“Don’t come. He will scold you. You have come really late.”
“Okay Then I’m going to the library.” I sent the text.
“Sure. Why did you come today? I thought you were asleep.”
“I thought, why miss the classes?”
“Okay, the professor is looking at me. See you soon.”
I chuckled at my screen. I shook my head and headed to the library.
When I reached the library, I saw students busy doing their projects or assignments. But it was not a seminar, but a library. As a result, they were left to do their work quietly.
I entered the library and walked to the last table, which was empty. I placed my bag on the table and turned to myself.
The library was huge. A two–story library was full of different kinds of books. The book shelves were really tall, almost reaching the ceiling.
My eyes caught a book. I walked to the bookshelf and reached out my hand to take out the book.
At that time, another hand reached for the book, and our hands brushed together.
I felt a shiver around my spine at the touch. I turned my head and gulped.
‘Ian?‘ I thought and took a step back.
He took out the book from the bookshelf and looked at me. I immediately looked away from him and tried to leave his side.
But he stopped me from behind by speaking out.
“I am sorry.” (1
