Ava by L.G.Savage (HeartBreak)

Chapter 38

Ava didn’t see Claire at breakfast the following morning. It was such a disappointing blow that she wondered if she did indeed have a death wish, as Ezekiel had said. She had so many emotions boiling inside of her, ready to explode, that she had quite looked forward to a confrontation with the wolf, even if all it would have done was send her back to the infirmary.

She knew who was responsible for her feeling like this. Ezekiel should not have touched her, and she should not have let him. She should not have enjoyed every second of it like she did. Seriously, what the hell was wrong with her?

She ignored the whispers again and looked around the dining hall with her tray. She met Emily’s gaze and saw the guilt in the Omega’s eyes Shaking her head she looked away. It was stupid to believe she could make friends at the academy anyway. When had people not stabbed her in

Jared waved from a table somewhere at the back, and she made her way to it, not even minding that he had pushed another wolf off the seat beside him again. At least with Jared, she knew what to expect. He was an Alpha and raised a certain way; nothing he did would surprise her.

“You’re a hard one to kill, aren’t you” Jared chuckled as she approached his table. “You look brand new.”

The wolves around him looked curiously at her, but she ignored them as she sat down Jared reacted weirdly when she mentioned his cream the other day, so she didn’t dare to do it again. But Jared knew very well why she looked brand new. She owed this Alpha everything

Besides the boiling rage inside her, she had never felt better.

“I heard she did a number on you.” Jared continued,

“Well, she obviously still needs to work on her punches,” she muttered as she speared a sausage on her plate.

“I would tell you to watch your tongue, but somehow, I don’t think it would make a difference,” Jared said as he cradled a coffee mug.

“Nothing makes a difference in this place.”

Jared’s smile dropped off his face at her words, and then he said. “That’s true.”

She didn’t say anything else as she attacked her fully loaded plate. She’d woken up extra hungry today, and since she was likely going to skip dinner because of her set detentions, she needed to load up as much as she could.
