Chapter 279
-Ava’s POV-
I remembered.
The moment I hit the water, the memory sparked in my brain, and I remembered.
“Do you remember all I told you?”
My mother’s voice, calm and sharp, cut through my trance. I had been staring at myself in the mirror, wondering why my eyes, like I had dome almost a thousand times, always swirled and changed colours.
“Ava Lilian Pierce,” She said again, this time with more edge, “What did I tell you about not answering immediately when I ask a question?”
I blinked, dragging my gaze away from the mirror. My head lowered slightly in submission, “I apologize, Mother. I was distracted.
I hated how small I sounded, how small I felt. I was eleven and I knew I was only a little girl but she always made me feel smaller..
She narrowed her eyes, and I braced myself for the usual scolding. But instead, she let out a tired sigh, like dealing with me was exhausting. Like my existence was exhausting, “Behave yourself. This celebration isn’t about your birthday. It is about introducing you to the realm as our daughter. So hold your head up high and do not-” She emphasized the word, “talk or associate with the Omegas and servants, because-
She waited.
I bowed my head and finished the sentence for her, “Because they are all beneath us.”
Something close to a smile curled on her lips. “Very good. Remember, tonight all eyes will be on you. Tonight, you come out as a Pierce, and you show them that, just like the rest of us, you are above everyone else.
And just like that, she walked away, leaving me standing there alone.
She didn’t even wish me a happy birthday.
But I still smiled–just like I was taught to
And later that night, I did exactly what I was expected to do. I held my head up high. I showed them how the Pierces acted. And the moment that girl touched me, I acted on impulse.
I hadn’t even thought. I had just…. reacted.
“I’m sorry.”
“This is not who I want to be.”
“I don’t even want to be here.
Those were the words I had wanted to say. But I kept them trapped inside, silent and useless, as I watched them away, Because I was a Pierce. And the more distance the warriors put between us, the more regret twisted inside like a sickness in my gut.
Then suddenly I wasn’t eleven anymore.

cheeks. My lips trembled as I whispered, “I’m sorry I played a part in breaking you.”
And just like that everything faded.
The world returned to black.
I was struggling again, just like before, but this time, I wasn’t in a grand hall with golden lights and music. I was in the water. Sinking. Drowning.
I called on the essence–desperate for it to help me, just like it had before.
But nothing happened.
