Ava's POV:
 

Love thrives through hope!

 

 

Standing in front of the tremendous mansion. I was having mixed feelings, trepidation, contentment, eerie butterflies. Does this even make sense?

 

 

This will be my new home. Home… a small word but holds the world. 

 

 

My mind was in disarray, looking at the massive mansion in front of me and thinking about everything. I hope, I took the right decision after everything mom and dad told me, last night.             

                    --------------------------------

 

 

FLASHBACK:

AUTHOR'S POV:

Serene!

 

 

Being in your mother's embrace is the most peaceful place in the world. 

 

 

“Let me tell you a story,” Ava’s mother said taking her out of her pesky thoughts.

 

 

Ava look at her, but her mother was looking absent-mindedly outside the window. 

 

 

“Laura, my best friend from high school. She was the most lovely and calm person. But she hated being bullied and will always stand for herself and others. You know how we met,”? Her mother asked, a small smile playing on her lips as if she was reminiscing that time.

 

 

“That was the first day of my middle school and also hers. We both hate bullies, and there was this horde of stupid brats. They would bully anyone. That day, when I entered school, they approached me and tried to bully me, but of course, I fought back and when they know, that they can’t bully me, they gave me a dare.

FLASHBACK WHEN AVA'S MOM WAS IN MIDDLE SCHOOL:

Let’s see how brave you are miss I-am-not-afraid,” the queen bee mocked me while her friends snickered.

 

 

“You have to slap the first person entering through that gate,”.

She moved towards the gate, only to see a beautiful, girl around her age, entering school. She felt sorry, but she can't renege from the dare. Bracing herself and saying sorry in her heart, she went towards the girl and…

“Whack”!

 

Tight slapping sound, echoed in the shrouding.  The other girl instinctively put her hand over her cheek and look at her in pure shock. 

 

 

Poor girl gaped, wondering why was she saluted with a slap on her first day.

 

 

“Sorry! Don't take it personally,” Karla said apologetically, only to get a tight slap in return.

 

 

She gaped at the girl, understanding that she slapped her back.

 

 

“You too,” the girl said and went away.

 

 

From that day, they became best buddies for life.     

                      ------------------------

BACK TO AVA AND HER MOTHER:

Ava and her mother laughed. And her mother went on.

 

 

“Laura found her mate on her 18th birthday, they both accepted each other right away. Everything was perfect, they loved each other wholly. After 6 years, they got married. Everything was roses, but little did she know that not everything was perfect as it was. Her mate was cheating on her with someone else. Laura will feel the pain every night, but she didn’t ask him anything. One day, I asked her why she is doing this. She should confront him and reject him, as creating is not a mistake, it’s a choice but she would always say, that love thrives through hope. And she hoped one day, her mate will be completely faithful to her. She knew that he loves her, but she didn’t know what drove him towards other women's embrace. Every night she would suffer the same pain. Until one day she had enough. When her mate was driving in another woman, she took a knife and cut his mark on her neck. He felt the pain and came home right away. That night, she rejected him and left him. He pleaded but she was gone. She went to the human world and started a new life. Got second chance mate, he was human tho.  They had a joyous life, a small house, two beautiful kids. Everything was perfect when one day her second mate died and she went into depression. We tried everything to help her, but nothing helped, she was suicidal. One day, her 16 years old daughter, found an old album and reached her first mate. After hearing everything, he drove there and helped her. He took her out of the darkness, accepted her kids, and took her back. After moving back to the pack house, Laura got to know that, after leaving her first mate, he also was in depression. Unknowingly, they both healed each other,” her mother said and took her hands.

 

 

“Look, honey! I’m not saying that it’s okay to accept a cheater.  I’m just saying that we don’t know when and how we find love. Love desires patience, hope. Time always exposes what you mean to someone. Give your mate bond a chance sweetie,” her mother said somewhat pleadingly.

 

 

“Yes, and if he still hurt you then tell me. I'll make sure that he’ll never make babies,” dad said entering the room, while mom glared at him.
