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?

CHAPTER 48

Even if it meant my final act on the idyllic earth of the moon, I would prevent Storm from getting married to Noelani.

I made that commitment to myself. Noelani and Storm would never actually be married. Ever. I won't permit it. Not at all. If I ever allowed him to tattoo a moon-forsaken mark on her neck, my name wouldn't be Ava. She is far less like him. The very concept made my blood boil.

The next full moon, which was in approximately three weeks, crossed my mind as I walked through the hallway, wondering how I was going to find that cursed stone and halt their wedding. I was perplexed because I could still remember what Willow had told me three days before. Beyond simply me and Nessa trying to influence Storm's mind, there were a ton of players in this game.
