The Alpha King's Reluctant Bride (Ava and Grayson) novel Chapter 108

-Ava’s POV-

“Are you sure this is a good ide

You haven’t fully healed,” I asked, but despite my concern, I went ahead and focused the binoculars on ‘our target’ as Isabella had called him.

“Don’t be a buzzkill,” she replied, brushing me off as always. “You said you wanted to take your mind off Grayson, and I need to channel my anger somewhere. So, no, this isn’t a good idea-but we’re doing it anyway. Eliza is our friend. When our friends get dumped, we find the guy responsible, and we beat him up. That’s how it’s always worked.”

“This is a bad idea,” my wolf grumbled in the back of my mind, her voice carrying a weight of disapproval. I giggled despite myself because her voice since I had been hearing it, always felt like a tickle brushing against my skull, strange and yet comforting.

“What the hell is so funny?” Isabella snapped at me, glaring. At the same time, I felt my wolf roll her eyes-if that was even possible.

“Nothing,” I replied, shaking my head and stifling another laugh.

The bond with my wolf still felt surreal. She was like an older sister who frowned on all my bad decisions, yet I couldn’t imagine being without her now that she was here. It was exhilarating and weird at the same time, having her here now when she’d been silent for so long. I wanted to tell my parents that my wolf had finally revealed herself to me-how she’d always been there, waiting until I found myself enough to bring her-but with everything else going on, with Grayson’s attitude being the cherry on top of the chaos, I decided against it.

So here I was, stalking Eliza’s ex to distract myself, at least until I had to get back to work and deal with Crystal in the next few days.

“He’s about to leave,” Isabella said.

“I can see that, I’m holding binoculars,” I replied dryly.

“Why did you even bring those? Don’t you have a wolf now? You’ve got heightened senses, which means…” She snatched the binoculars out of my hands. “You don’t need to be goggle girl. Just focus on what you want to see, and you will-no matter how far away it is.”

I glared at her but sighed, turning my head and doing exactly what she said. My vision zoomed in like I had an invisible lens, and I gasped in surprise.

Isabella laughed.

know, right? It’s cool.”

“Tell her your abilities are not a toy,” my wolf huffed with superiority, her tone making me sigh again. “I don’t think my wolf likes you or your antics very much,” I muttered.

In response, Isabella grabbed my face, forcing me to look at her. You and I just need a little time, honey. Trust me-you’re going to love me.”

eyes? Ting!

She grabbed my hand, tugging me forward as we began tailing Jeremy. According to Isabella, the plan was simple: she’d been watching his routine for days-because apparently stalking was now a hobby-and she knew he walked home every night and cut through an alley as a shortcut. All we had to do was intercept him there, show him our claws and black eyes, and scare the hell out of him. We’d make sure he knew what happened to guys who broke kind women’s hearts.
