Alpha’s Forbidden Temptation Chapter 162
Dante’s POVEvery time I tried to let myself get close to Scarlet, a shadow would rise between us. A quiet, disapproving figure in the back of my mind.Elizabeth.She had always treated me like a son. Once, when I had no one left in this world, she and Killian had been my anchor. But something had changed. Since Scarlet came into our lives, she had grown fiercely protective of her, guarded, sharp-eyed, and silent in judgment.Last night, Scarlet and I had shared a moment I could not forget. It was raw and real. For the first time in years, I had felt seen, felt wanted, felt... whole.And yet, this morning, I woke restless.I kept pacing around, unsure of what I should feel or do. I wanted her. Of course, I did. Every fibre of me screamed for her. But was it right?There had always been something standing between us.First, it was timing. Then, my fake marriage. Now?Amy.Our daughter.It was as if fate had anchored us together, whether we liked it or not, reminding me that we were nev

Scarlet’s POV“Dante…” I started, my voice trembling. “I… I…”He looked at me with eyes so full of raw vulnerability that it nearly broke me.“I always believed things should have been different,” I said, “I was not alone, not even with Vespara by my side, but I understood that life was never easy. And yet, never, not once, did I wish that Amy hadn’t come into my life. When I found out about her, I was over the moon. Suddenly there was my kin, my blood, my child. I wasn’t alone anymore. You cannot imagine how much joy she brought me, Dante. She gave me a reason to breathe again.”“And I could never hate you,” I whispered, my voice breaking. “Not for any of it. Not even now. Dante, we are different people. We come from different worlds, with different scars. Yes, I developed feelings for you, maybe more than feelings, but my intentions at the start were never pure. I have to be honest about that.”“When I first came to Phantom Moon,” I said, forcing myself to meet his gaze, “I had my o

Scarlet’s POvI tucked Amy in with a small sigh of relief. She had run around like a little whirlwind today, first with the other kids and then with Dante, who seemed to have transformed into a full-time dad overnight. She was out like a light, her tiny hand still curled into a half-wave.After checking that she was sound asleep, I left the room to get a glass of water. On my way back, I saw Dante in the living room, seated on the edge of the couch, deep in conversation with Ace. Their voices were hushed, but the way they leaned toward each other told me it was a serious talk. I did not want to interrupt, so I quietly made my way back to my room.I tried to sleep but my mind kept running. Thoughts of Amy, of Dante, of the complicated mess of my life. The soft moonlight slipped through the curtains, painting patterns on the ceiling that looked like all the paths I could have taken but never did.It was nearly ten o’clock when I got up again, restless. I tiptoed back to the living room,
Alpha’s Forbidden Temptation Chapter 159
Scarlet’s POVThe morning sunlight was streaming through the tall windows of Dante’s living room, warming the wooden floors and turning Amy’s curls into coppery fire. She was cross-legged on the rug, her colouring book open to a half-finished drawing of a big wolf wearing a crown.She looked up at me, her violet eyes shining with mirth and signed quickly. “Daddy.”My chest tightened. “That’s wonderful,” I signed back, smiling even though my heart was in my throat. “But why is Daddy’s hair silver?” She signed. “Because Daddy’s old.” I tried to hold back a laugh. I turned to look at Dante, and for some reason, I saw his few hairs turning silver and glowing in the sun. She turned to Dante, who was leaning against the kitchen counter, arms folded as if trying to keep himself together. His expression softened as she held up the drawing.“You made this for me?” he asked, his voice low. Though his daughter made him an oldie, he was quite happy about it. Amy nodded, her little hands signi

Scarlet’s POVAs I drove back to Phantom Moon, the sky was already beginning to darken. My first stop was Elizabeth’s house, nestled on the edge of town with its familiar, comforting scent of cedar and dried herbs. I knocked on her door, and she opened it with a smile, her silver hair pulled back in its usual tight bun.“Dear, how are you?” she asked warmly. “Vespara told me you had gone to the capital to treat a patient.”I forced a smile. “Well, I just got fired,” I said, trying to sound lighthearted even though my heart felt heavy.She frowned, concern flickering in her pale blue eyes. “What happened?”“Oh, nothing much,” I said with a shrug, not wanting to burden her. I took a seat beside her on the old velvet sofa, its cushions sunken from years of use. The table was already set for dinner, and Elizabeth gestured toward it. “Will you join me for supper?”I nodded. “I would love to.”As we ate, I found myself watching her closely. She looked smaller than I remembered, fragile, eve
Alpha’s Forbidden Temptation Chapter 157
Scarlet’s POVI was in the middle of checking Violet’s vitals when the King himself entered the room, his presence as commanding as ever. Today was the day I would be leaving the capital to return to Phantom Moon. It had been two weeks since I had been summoned here, and though the King had wanted me to stay by Violet’s side, I knew where my real responsibilities lay. My heart and my daughter were back in Phantom Moon.Violet, unlike the King, carried a natural warmth. She smiled at me, though her eyes still bore that lingering sadness. “So, when do you leave, Dr. Scarlet?” she asked. “This evening,” I said, trying to keep my voice light.She raised an eyebrow, that sharp intuition of hers cutting through me. “You seem happy about it.”I could not help but chuckle. “I am. I get to see my daughter.”The King’s eyes, sharp as a hawk’s, shifted to me. “You have a child?” His tone was neutral but carried an edge of curiosity, as if testing me.I met his gaze without flinching. “Yes, I do
