ログインScarlett backed away, her mind racing as she thought of what to do. But it was futile. Her mind felt muddled. Kingston stormed over to where she stood and wrapped his hands around her throat. Scarlett gagged and choked as his grip tightened around her throat. Her vision blurred, black dots appearing at the edges as her air was cut off. Driven by the will to survive, she lifted her hand that held the dagger and tried to stab him. But he caught it easily, blocking it with his. "I should have fucking killed you the first time I saw you." He snarled. "That bastard Dylan had the guts to flaunt you around like a bloody slut!"He knocked the dagger out of her hand and pressed down harder on her throat. Scarlett was on the verge of passing out. Her vision had darkened already, and her lungs burned with pressure, protesting for air. With her last bit of strength, she tried to scratch Kingston across the face. easily caught her hand and slammed it into the wall. He lifted her, his grip
The night Dylan pretended to sleepwalk, he heard everything Hailey and Henry discussed. And when he returned to his room with Scarlett that night, he told her about the jar of liquid aconite they had. At first, he planned to retrieve it before leaving for Silvermist pack. But Scarlett told him to leave it there for a while, so they wouldn't make the twins suspicious. Thinking about it now, Scarlett was glad she stopped him from taking it away. This could be her only way to overpower Sheba. She waited until Sheba disappeared into one of the empty rooms, then she moved, keeping her back against the wall as she hurried towards Hailey and Henry's room. She slipped in undetected, shut the door and locked it. Her vision was a bit clearer now, and she didn't feel as weak as before. She hurried to the wardrobe and pulled it open, wincing softly when it creaked loudly. There was no time to waste. Every second counted. She searched through the clothes, opened drawers and ransacked them,
Bevvy dragged Scarlett through the hallway, heaving breathlessly. She was terrified. Jordan hadn't replied to the mind link. The guards were all gone, fighting against the rogues, and she had no idea if Jordan and Caleb were still alive. The bite wound around her neck was healing slowly because of the venom from the rogue wolf. If she had been in her wolf form, she would have healed faster. She felt the library door behind her back and pushed it open, dragging Scarlett inside. She could still hear the screams and growls as the battle went on. "Scarlett," she breathed. "Scarlett, can you hear me?"But Scarlett had fallen unconscious. A stream of creamy froth drooled down the side of her mouth, and her eyes remained glazed over. As she placed her hands under Scarlett's arms to pull her inside, she noticed a needle sticking out of her neck. She dropped to her knees and examined it, and an odd smell wafted past her nostrils. She didn't need to check to know what it was. It was some
Dylan sat at the head of the counter inside the tribunal, waiting for the prisoner to be brought out.Beside him was Alpha Rhett, Helgar and Beowulf, while the rest of the elders sat behind, along with Hailey and Henry. The rest members of the pack sat around the tribunal, waiting for the trial to begin. Suddenly, a murmur swept through the crowd as the prisoner was brought in. He was a middle-aged man, with metallic grey hair and hazel eyes. He didn't look the least bit remorseful as he was dragged across the aisle to the wooden stand meant for him. The guards cuffed him to the railings, then retreated to the back of the tribunal. Total silence descended as everyone waited. Then Alpha Rhett got up, cleared his throat and addressed the crowd. "People of Silvermist," he began. "We are gathered here today to witness the trial of Jacob Malfoy, who was found guilty of treason. This trial will be conducted by Alpha King Dylan Callahan of Shadowfang pack."Dylan sat up further and pin
Scarlett clung tightly to Jordan as the screams intensified. Then came the deep snarls and growls of animals, and the pounding of paws on the ground. "What's happening?" She asked, her voice filled with terror. "Rogue attack." Bevvy muttered as she rushed into a pair of shorts and a t-shirt. Scarlett remembered the first time the rogues attacked. It was the day at the waterfall. She still felt traumatized from that first day when she almost drowned. She looked up at Jordan, her eyes frightened. "Jordan?" She whispered. He gently held her shoulders. "I need you to listen to me, Scarlett. No matter what happens, I promise, I'll keep you safe. Bevvy will take you to the mansion. There's a safe room...""But what about you? What about Caleb?"We'll fight back the rogues. The most important thing is keeping you safe.""Let me help...""NO!" Jordan snapped. "I can't put you in harm's way. Dylan would kill me. The only thing you need to do is stay safe."He was still talking when someth
The more Jordan's voice drew closer, the more panicked Scarlett became. She rolled off Bevvy's body, grabbing her dress and rushing into it. "Relax, Scarlett." Bevvy purred without a care in the world. "It's not like we were doing anything bad.""Don't tell me to relax. Jordan is not going to think that way when he sees us naked in bed.""We'll just tell him why.""We can't." Scarlett sighed in exasperation. "No one is supposed to know about this. I'll die of mortification."Bevvy chuckled, then a mischievous look came over her face. "Jordan," she yelled. "We're in here!""No!" Scarlett gasped, her eyes wide open. She managed to shoot a furious glare at Bevvy and pull on her gown before Jordan appeared in the room. "Scarlett!" he exclaimed. "I've been looking for you.""I... I was here... with Bevvy." Scarlett tried to steady her voice, but the more she tried, the more it shook. Jordan took one look at her, then at Bevvy who was still naked, and frowned. "What's happening here?
The wedding arrived sooner than Scarlett expected. She had spent the entire week ignoring Dylan and keeping her distance from him. She spent hours in her bedroom, more hours in the library, and took walks with Jordan in the courtyard. Jordan was sweet and kind. She found out he was gay, and he
Dylan didn't have enough time to move away from Scarlett. The moment the knock came, the door opened. An elderly woman stepped in, followed by Jordan and two male attendants. They were talking at the top of their voices. The three of them stopped when they realized they just interrupted something
A loud silence followed after Dylan's outburst. Scarlett stood frozen beside him, shocked that he did that for her. The pack elders were dumbfounded. They exchanged confused looks, shocked that Dylan would call them out for a human. Helgar was the first to speak. "Forgive our impudence, Alpha Dy
Scarlett expected a brutal kiss. She expected a kiss that would leave her lips bruised, a punishing kiss fueled by the hate between them. But the moment Dylan's lips closed over hers, every single thought in her head evaporated. He kissed her like he had done it a million times, lips sliding over
