~SCARLETT~ I stood outside Dimitri's room door as the doctor attended to him. He hadn't asked me to step out, and I knew He was angry because I had been inconsiderate and had prioritized my pleasure over his injuries. “Stupid girl” I muttered to myself, and at that moment, the doctor walked out of the room with Chase behind him. “Is he okay?” I asked, and he sighed dramatically. “His wounds have all healed up, but he would be needing help with going about his daily activities for a while, so it's better if someone takes care of him for now. Maybe you can do it” The doctor suggested, and I immediately shook my head. “I don't think I am the right candidate. Can't you take care of him, Chase?” I asked as I turned to Chase, and he shook his head. “No, I have to take care of everything now that he needs to rest” He explained, and I pursed my lips. “What about Cleo…” “She'll be busy taking care of training. You're the only one that can take care of hi
~DIMITRI~ ~ THIRTY MINUTES EARLIER~ “No matter what, do not attack him even if he does attack me. Everyone stand back and watch, you included Chase” I uttered as I turned to him, and rightfully so,they both looked confused. “But…” “It's an order. Alert the rest without alerting Alexander or Scarlett. Anyone who steps forward to help me will have themselves to blame when I'm done with them” I said they both bowed their heads.~PRESENT~ I could feel Alexander's stare on us without even turning back. I made sure I was holding onto Scarlett tightly and making it seem like she was the one carrying me even though I was holding most of my weight off her. We got into the house, and together with Chase, they placed me on the couch, and I let out a fake wince, which immediately pulled Scarlett to my side. “Are you okay? Does it hurt that bad?” She questioned, and the genuine worry in her eyes almost made me smile. “It does, I'm not sure I'll be able to move on my
~ALEXANDER~ I had to fight back the urge to wrap my arms around her and Pepper her face with kisses as soon as I saw her. Goddess knew how much I had missed her and it was killing me slowly that I couldn't hold her, kiss her or be with her whenever I wanted. I needed to take it slow with her. Make her slowly trust me. This was a chance to do right by her and even though we had a lot of good memories in the past, a selfish part of me wished she would never get her memory back. I never wanted to see that look that she had given me that day ever again. I needed to do things right this time. “You didn't need to hurt him” Scarlett scolded with a frown and I immediately panicked. “Sorry, I didn't want him hurting you” I explained and she folded her arms. “They won’t hurt me” She stated and I pursed lips. “It won't happen again, I promise. Don't be mad at me, hmm? I came here to give you something” I told her and her face visibly brightened even though she st
~DIMITRI~ I splashed water on my face before staring at my reflection in the mirror as I breathed loudly. I have never lost control of my body till I met Scarlett. That little stroke that she had stroked me was enough to send me over the edge and goddess, I was this close to pushing logic out of the way and having my way with her over and over again till I had my fill of her. “Dammit” I muttered to myself as I punched the wall beside the mirror, instantly making a dent and hurting my knuckles. What was wrong with me? Was it because I haven't had sex in so long? Was that why I was unable to control myself? Was it because she looked like Charlotte? Was that why it was harder to keep my hands off her? Whatever it was, it was eating me alive. My cock was so swollen that it was starting to hurt but I refused to release myself to the memory of another woman other than my wife. I was already a bad husband for wanting another woman this much, I couldn't make it worse.
~SCARLETT~ “Fuck?” I asked as my eyes widened and she chuckled. “Oh don't ask surprised now. I saw where your hands were earlier. No wonder there's always some sort of tension between you both. You're fucking” She stated like she had just uncovered a secret and I frowned. “I don't know you mean by fucking. I touched him because he has touched me before” I explained to her and she tilted her head at me. “Touched you where? There?” She asked as she glanced down and I immediately knew what she was insinuating and I shook my head as my cheeks heated up. “No, just here” I told her as I touched my breast and she narrowed her eyes. “So he hasn't inserted his thing in you?” She asked and I shook my head immediately. “No, I…” “You want him to, don't you?” She asked and I turned away from her, unable to stare into her eyes. “Is that what fucking means?” I asked and she sighed. “I forgot that you lost all your memories so let me show it to you” She utte
~SCARLETT~ “What's going on here?” Before I could turn towards the voice, Dimitri had already moved away as he cleared his throat. He tried to act unaffected, but I knew he was. I could see it from the bulge in his pants and the way he refused to meet my eyes. “Are you okay, Scarlett?”Cleo's voice snapped me out of my thoughts, and I tore my eyes away from Dimitri and settled it on her. “I am. I'm sorry if I scared you” I told her, and she let out a sigh of relief as she walked towards me and grabbed my hand. I could see Chase behind her, glancing between Dimitri and I. “Doctor please check up on her” Chase told the doctor after a while, and while I was focused on Cleo, Chase, and the doctor, Dimitri managed to slip away, and I frowned Had I gone too far? The doctor checked my pulse and everything and assured them that I was okay and just needed to rest. “I want to become stronger” I suddenly said, and they both glanced at each other before tur
~DIMITRI~ “That's good to hear. Now the rogues know not the mess with the pack” I said as Chase finished relaying the information to me. “Now that that's out of the way, will you tell me what's going on between you and Myla? The last thing I remember you telling me was that you were going to get into a sexual relationship with her” Chase said and I sighed. “Well I realised that she's not going to want a sexual relationship without including her feelings and I cannot give her what she wants then. She's not my mate and she can never replace my wife” I told him and he sighed. “Did she tell you she's trying to replace your wife? All she's asking for is that you be nice to her but it's better this way if you guys don't explore the attraction you have for one another…” “I won't say I'm attracted to her. I just haven't gotten laid in a while” I interjected and he rolled his eyes. “Sure. Anyway it's better this way so Scarlett doesn't get hurt. She'll get over her litt
~SCARLETT~ I was aware of Dimitri walking behind us as I spoke with Chase. I didn't dare turn back or acknowledge his presence. Last night, I cried myself to sleep when I slowly began to realize that he was right. I wasn't his wife nor his mate, so why did he have to be nice to me? Because he saved me? I may not remember many things, but I wasn't a fool, so I needed to stop acting like a fool in front of him or being too desperate for his attention. “How was your journey? Did you get me something?” I said to Chase as I grabbed onto his arm, and he sighed. “It was good. I achieved what I went there to do and ran back because of you. You haven't been a good girl. Are you sure you deserve a gift?” He asked, and before I could reply, I heard a scoff behind me. “Spare me” Dimitri muttered under his voice, but we had both clearly heard him. Not being able to endure it anymore, I turned to him with a glare. “May I ask why you're following us, Mr Sanchez?” I a
~DIMITRI~ Her silence was affecting me more than I thought it would. I watched with a frown as she ran up to the mansion as soon as we got home without even a glance back. I must have really made her angry with my words, but they were the truth. If she wanted some kind of relationship between us that was anything other than sexual then I could never give her that. Maybe it was better I got over this lust I had for her. I stood there for a while, just staring at the house before closing the car door and walking over to mine. “Mr Sanchez” One of my guards greeted me as he ran up to me. “I want you to watch over Scarlett. She's not allowed to leave the house unless she's with either I or Chase, okay?” I told him, and he bowed his head. “Noted Mr Sanchez” He replied, and I nodded before walking into my mansion. I didn't bother eating and just went straight to bed because I had no appetite, but even falling asleep was hard as guilt gnawed at my soul. Why was I feeling gui
