SHADOWS WITHIN

AVA is a dangerous killer with a troubled past. She grew up in the Assassins' gang, where she learned everything she knows about seduction and murder. AVA is very good at what she does, and her knife has never missed its mark. AVA is not perfect, though. She can't get rid of her past, so she always looks over her shoulder because she's afraid of getting caught. When Alpha Storm, the head of the most conservative pack, gives AVA the job of killing him, she knows it will be her most dangerous mission yet. Storm is a strong Alpha who is not easy to trick. But AVA is set on finishing her task, no matter what it takes. She will use her looks, her wits, and her ability to kill to attract Storm and get close enough to him to kill him. But as AVA gets to know Storm, she starts to wonder why she is doing what she is doing. He's not the monster she thought he was, and she starts to wonder if she can really kill him. AVA will have to choose whether to follow her heart or her orders in the end. Will AVA's evil lead her to kill Storm? Or will she be able to make things right and save him from her own darkness?

I informed him that "I don't know any witches! Those witches attacked me, Storm! They hurt me. I'm actually not lying this time. I do, however, know Nessa, but I have no acquaintance with the witches who attacked me. He and I are both perplexed about the situation.

The storm approached me. I straightened my posture as I felt his eyes rove over my scars. Analyzing them, he was I questioned him about his understanding of the unusual symbols.

I'm asking about the witch or witches who protected you, not the ones that attacked you.
