Tangled
Chapter 67
67 Ava: Their Plans (I)
Every day that passes is a slight uptick in my stress level. Mom and Dad are never home, busy with something. I haven’t seen Phoenix since the day we spoke in the kitchen. And Jessa has been less than receptive over talking about future plans with me.
The fragile alliance feels like it’s crackling away beneath my fingers, like old paper that disintegrates
with the faintest touch.
So when Phoenix comes by without Jessa around, dismissing my guards, my heart jumps into my throat. It’s hard to swallow the water I’d just sipped out of one of mom’s coffee mugs.
“Hi.”
“Hey.” Phoenix looks me over, rubbing his left brow in a mannerism that’s new to me. “They’re planning the mating ceremony for next week. Mom’s in charge.”
“Oh.”
What else is there to say? We all knew it was coming.
It’s odd how peace flows through me at the

announcement. It’s like my body understands that I’m either going to escape or die trying, because there’s no way in hell I’ll ever let Alpha Renard near me like that.
“Have they sent you to the healer yet?”
I shake my head. “I haven’t heard a word about any of
this.”
Phoenix sits at the kitchen table, so I sit across from him, setting my glass of water aside. The tightness in my throat makes it too hard to swallow. “How much do you know about the pack situation, Ava?”
My lips quirk up into a mocking smile. “How often do you think people inform me about anything, Phoenix?”
He nods slightly, acknowledging my words but otherwise unmoved by them. It’s just a clear indicator that he’s only here for his own interests. Despite everything, he’s not here to save his sister. He’s not here to care about me, or what happens to me.
