CHAPTER 89
I relayed all this information to Grayson so he was aware of the situation and what I am assuming Ava is doing. He has spoken to Theo in length and he had no idea what she was up
- to. He honestly believed that her research facility was there to help werewolves. Not kill
humans.
But I didn’t know how he was going to handle this situation.
I was keeping my eye on Jacob as he kept finding out more and more horrible stuff about his mother. But he seemed to be taking it in his stride. He wasn’t letting it affect him by distracting him from finding out more and more information.
Jacob had completely separated himself from the situation and he is treating her as just a
rogue wolf. Not his mother.
I was wondering what was going to happen when he finally comes face to face with her
though.
Theo was being kept up to date on everything that we were finding out but I hadn’t seen him.
So I wasn’t sure how he was taking it. And the guys weren’t telling me anything.
I’m guessing he wasn’t taking it too well. I don’t blame him. That’s his mate. And he knows that what she is doing is punishable by death. It’s not something that anyone was looking
forward to.
I know that I was the driving force behind the whole thing, but I couldn’t imagine what he was going through or what he was going to do when he saw her either.
She was oblivious to everything that was going on back here at the pack. But we knew that we had to act quick, before the new batch of women that they have in there end up dead.
Wesley showed up at my house while Jacob and I were working and we hid all the files that we had under the computer and back in their folders so he couldn’t see what was going on.
“What do you want Wesley?”
“I was hoping that I could see Rory. I know that she has to be really lonely in the basement.” Wesley said.
“Who says she’s in the basement?”
“I’m not stupid Nova. Can I please see my daughter?” He asked. And I shot him a murderous glance.

“No.” I snapped.
“Nova…” He began to say.
“I’m your daughter. Not her. I’m the one that you brought into this world and the same one that
you tried to take out of this world. But you consider her to be your daughter? Get f****d
Wesley, and get out of my house.” I yelled, opening the laptop back up.
I started getting more alerts on the computer and he was looking at me strangely but I just
turned to stare at him and he knew that I wasn’t going to waver on him seeing Rory. So he
hung his head and turned around and left.
Since I took his mate and Rory away from him, he was looking more and more disheveled
everyday.
“I don’t think a quick visit would hurt.” Jacob said.
“It hurts me.” I snapped. And that was the end of that conversation.
I looked at the alerts that I got on my computer and it was more names that were being
matched with people in the system.
I started looking through the missing persons fliers and I matched the person with the name that came up on my screen. So I grabbed that flier and I wrote ‘deceased‘ on them.
“How many does that make?” Jacob asked.
“12. And they’re the ones that were kidnapped first. The earlier ones.” I said.
“Who is giving you these fliers?”
“I don’t know. Which is starting to worry me. I can’t even sense them.” I said.
“Well, it’s someone who obviously knows how to hide from you.” Jacob said.
12 women had already lost their lives because of what Ava was doing. That’s 12 too many and I wasn’t sure how many others we were going to find dead or that we were going to find
missing.
It was scaring me. And I knew that we couldn’t sit around any longer. This needed to come to a stop. We needed a plan and we needed it now.
Izzy was out of the dungeon so we needed to be careful because she would definitely warn her mother if she found out that we were going to California.
The triplets ended up showing up at the house with Aiden, Julian and Anthony.
They all came inside being rowdy misfits but the guys looked like they were having fun now

that their friends were here.
“Hello baby.” Dean said, walking over to me and kissing me.
“Hi. You’re in a good moon. Are you drunk?” I asked.
“We’ve only had a couple of drinks.” Tyler said.
“He means a couple of bottles.” Aiden said, laughing.
“Yeah. I can tell. I need you three to sober up.” I said.
But they were acting like lunatics and I knew that I wasn’t going to get anything out of them while they were like this.
So I grabbed my phone and I went onto the patio.
“Hello.” Grayson answered.
“Hey. It’s Nova. I was going to try and talk to the guys but they’re drunk in my house right now and I can’t get any sense out of them.” I said.
“They’re always like that when they get with their friends.”
“Well, I’ve found 12 women that have turned up dead that have all been associated with Ava. And I know that there are more out there. Dead and alive. I think we need to move on that facility. We have to find out what the hell they’re doing and we have to do it soon. Before more
women lose their lives.” I said.
“I didn’t realize there were so many. Do you think it’s a good idea to move on them now? | mean, she’s the one that wants to start this war to kill you.”
“I know that, sir. But if she’s dead then she won’t be able to order it.” I said.
“It could prevent the war altogether.” He said.
“Exactly.” I said.
“Alright. We’ll get together tomorrow after the boys have sobered up and we’ll work something out. We’ll work out a game plan.” He said.
“Great. I’ll talk to you then.” I said.
When I went back inside I stopped as soon as I closed the door as I saw Dean surfing on my coffee table and Tyler started walking down the stairs modeling my lingerie.
“What the actual f**k?” I asked.
“I don’t even know what to say about this.” Jacob said.

I stood there staring at them for a bit before I started to ignore them and I walked back over to
the table.
I explained everything to Jacob and he didn’t seem too pleased but I told him that I needed him to stay back here at the pack just in case there is any trouble while we’re gone. I’m not going to ask him or his dad to help stop his mother.
“Nova. Why don’t you start modeling for us?” Koda asked.
“No thanks. I’m good.” I said.
“You look so much better in that lingerie than Tyler does.”
“I should hope so. By the way Tyler, whatever you’ve put on you can keep. I doubt it’s even
going to fit me anymore.” I said.
“Do I get a piece of your lingerie? It’s hot.” Julian asked.
I froze where I was sitting, next to Jacob, and I slowly turned my head to look at the triplets.
They may be drunk, but they’re still my mates and that was not on. Ever.
“What?” Julian asked, plopping on the couch, not understanding what he just did.
“Wait a minute. You don’t know what you just did wrong?” I asked.
“No.” He said.
“We know that you don’t want to announce your relationship with the triplets because Izzy is a bitch.” Anthony said. And I looked at Jacob. But when I looked at the triplets, they weren’t having fun anymore and they were all glaring at Julian and Anthony.
“I’m not just screwing the guys. I’m their f*****g mate.” I said. Almost immediately Julian and Anthony’s faces both dropped like they knew they were about to get their asses kicked.
“Guys. Please don’t kill them. I swear, we did not know that. We didn’t know you found your mate, you never told us.” Aiden said, jumping in to try and defend his friends.
“I think you guys should leave. Now.” I said, getting up from the table.
I positioned myself between the triplets and the other three. They all agreed that it would be best and I told the three of them to sit down and I would get them some coffee.
They were growling and I knew that they couldn’t help it because they were drunk, but I wasn’t going to let them kill who I assumed were their best friends from back home.
So I got their coffees and they sat in the living room sobering up while I was sitting on the
coffee table in front of them.

When they finally passed out, I sighed with relief and Jacob visibly relaxed as well.
That was a conflict that we avoided. And I knew that they would be easier to talk to when they wake up.
Tyler will freak out though because he’s going to be waking up in my lingerie.
So I grabbed my phone and I stood back and took a couple photos while they were all passed
out.
Jacob started laughing and I went back to the table to keep working.
