Book:The Wallflower and The Alphas Published:2025-4-2

Avery P. O. V.
I woke up with a pounding headache. I don’t know what happening lately. I have been sick to my stomach if I am smell something sweet. But I don’t know to understand what going on with me. I was thinking back last night. I was at the Lakehouse at Emilia’s birthday party. I guess I was trying to have a good time but when I saw them walk through the door and the girls running towards them and hanging on their every word. I stared at them with murderous eyes. I wanted to ripe off the sluts’ arms around my mates, they are mine!
Then I ran away from the scene I didn’t want to see. But I found a room and ran in there and fall apart and cry my fucking eyes out. Even though I told myself I won’t cry because of them. But that was a fucking lie.
That was when I let it all go when I heard the door open. That was when I saw Emilia walk into the room.
“Hey! who in here?” She said and turned her eyes on me. That was when she ran toward me.
“Avery! What are you doing here?
“I mean, are you okay.” She asked me. I saw concern in her eyes.
I shook my head not looking at her. Then they had to follow me inside the room. Then I saw Duke and Joseph follow her in the room too. They let her know they are her mate. That was a shocker because just a couple of days they were after me. But now I am glad they stop chasing me. But then I left the room and went outside that was when I felt them following me. Because I heard Elijah talking to me.
I knew it was my so-called mates. But something happened. I felt really dizzy and felt pain in my stomach. Then I saw dark. I know I passed out. But I felt someone picking me up and I heard Elijah whisper in my ear.
Oh so, it was him I am in his arms. Before I was out like a light. I heard him say.
Shh, it’s an okay princess. I won’t let anything happen to you ever again.” I heard in my ear. I was out.
I woke up in a bed. This isn’t my room? I am looking around I see I am in the same bedroom I was here before. But where? Is this the lake house? Or somewhere else I have been to.
That when I heard the door open, I saw Elijah, Jake, Andrew, Matthew, Ashely, Jayson, and Eli, Natalie inside the room. But on the other side, I see my parents.
What is going on? Ouch! My head. I grabbed the back of my head and rubbed it.
I saw the faces surrounding me with a concern and worried look on their faces.
“Umm, hello? Everyone?” I say with a nervous murmurous. I can feel my face turning bright red. I can feel my cheeks heated and I hate when people stare at me. But I can’t stop them because of what happened last night.
I have been feeling sick to my stomach for about two weeks. But I just shook it off and go back to normal and tried to survive in school. That is what I should worry about not things out of school stalkers and wars. But it’s hard not to think about something awful is going to happen.
“No! Avery stops it! Stop thinking something bad is going to happen.” I wasn’t paying attention when my mom walked towards me and sat on the side of the bed.
“Avery, sweetie.” I heard her say and I turn my head and I stare into my mom’s beautiful eyes. She had a sweet fake smile. I can see she was trying to show me everything is okay. But she can’t hide it very well.
“How are you feeling?” she asked me, and she was holding my hand into hers.
I didn’t say anything, but I did nod my head at her. But damn it! My head is pounding and thumping. I shook my head again trying to stop the pain. But finally, after a couple of minutes. It stopped.
“Hey, sweetheart, how’s my baby girl.” I heard my dad come by my mom. I saw him standing there putting his arm on her shoulder staring down at me with the same eyes as me. I saw the worry and concern in them too. I looked at him and my mom.
I gave them a shy smile.
I did say something because they were checking over me. I had to stop them. I know they are my parents. But they don’t need to treat me like a little kid.
“I thank you, mom and dad. But I am okay. You don’t need to fuss over me, I am fine really I am.” I told them with a smile I am trying to hide what was wrong.
They didn’t believe but they didn’t show I was lying. But they smiled and finally stop fusing over me.
“I just need to sleep,” I told them. They nodded their heads and kissed my cheeks.
I close my eyes and take a breath.
Inhale
Exhale.
I felt myself falling into a deep sleep.
After I wake up. I can see no one in the room with me. It’s dark already outside. I can feel the cold air coming through the window was open.
Why is my window open?
I get up and off my bed. I start walking over to my window and I lookout. But I didn’t see anything out there. But I felt eyes on me. So, I shook my head and closed my windows. I stare out the window for a couple of seconds. I see the clouds are getting dark. I think it is supposed to rain tonight. When I saw the light up the sky. I saw dark red eyes outside my window.
I let out a scream and I gasp when I saw what it was.
I saw the biggest shadow. A man was staring at me.
“Edward? I speak.
No, it can’t be. I just saw Edward, my brother. I thought he was dead.
When I looked away. I went back to staring out the window and he was gone?
I need to talk to my parents. I thought he died when I was six years old.
How is Edward alive and outside where I am at right now.
By the time I was trying to find him staring everywhere outside. I didn’t feel someone wrap their arms around my waist.
I let out a scream.
“Shh, it’s okay it’s just me. I heard Jake whisper in my ear. I look behind me and I saw Jake, Elijah, Andrew, Matthew staring at me with worry and concern on their faces.
“Oh, I thought I saw something but it was nothing,” I told them with a fake smile.
“Hey come on, let go.” We got dinner ready.” I heard Jake saw pulling me away from the shadow outside my window.
I really need to talk with my parents about what I saw and who I saw…
