INICIAR SESIÓNScarlett's POV•Just when I thought the atmosphere couldn't get anymore stuffy, it did.I stood with my back faced towards the window as I watched Marco who was standing before me, shooting daggers at Dominic who stood with a gun in his hand by the door—his hands ready to pull the trigger.“What makes you think I'm still scared of you?” Marco turned his figure to him, “you know my group surrounds this pack, right?”“Your group?” Dominic raised a brow, “what makes you think you belonged anywhere? You're more or less an outcast.” His words came out harshly.“I'd watch my words if I were you.”My eyes widened in surprise. Did Marco have a death wish or was he just that confident in his so called group?I turned to Dominic who had his eyes locked on him. His eyes looked he was mentally calculating his next move, at the same time, his features were unreadable.“Ivory group isn't one to accept outsiders so easily.” He pointed out to Marco, but from his expression, it was clear he wasn't lis
Scarlett POV.I crouched immediately, my heart beat picking up pace.I thought Marco was out? He was betraying Dominic after the first betrayal?Somehow, I began to feel Luca was also in on the attack because he was the reason Marco double crossed Dominic?Things seemed to be getting a little more confusing by the second.I stood up straight and tried peeking through the window again, but I felt my heart fly out of my chest when I saw him standing right in front of the door.He knew I was there all along.I stumbled back immediately and he pulled the door open, his eyes staring down at me with not even a hint of surprise.“You really do like involving yourself in dangerous stuff these days.” He said.“And you really do like back stabbing the kind every opportunity you get.” I responded, “a rivalry group? Seriously?”“What I do or do not do to the King is none of your concerned. You think I forgot you were the one who played Sherlock Holmes and got me out of here?” He tilted his head s
Scarlett's POV.“I pray I don't regret this” Dominic carefully searched his right pocket, taking out a pocket knife and handing it over to me casually.“Was this for?” I stared at it with a frown.“Protection, Scarlett. I'm not leaving you out there unguarded.”“Why would I need a pocket knife when I'm right with you?”“I may not always be there to protect you and that's why I need you protecting yourself.”Those words lingered in my ears longer than I had expected. Was he planning on leaving me out there?“What exactly do you want to protect out there?”Wasn't it obvious?My silence sort of give the answer he needed and he responded with a slight head shake, his hand placed on his temples as he shot his eyes gently.“You think I'm not good enough to protect you, don't you?” I asked.“Think?” He looked up at me, “you can barely protect yourself.”“I'm not saying I want to fight for you. All I'm saying is that you need someone watching your back out there.” I tried to explain.“My bik
Scarlett's POV.The sound ‘attack’ came to me me the same way ‘fire’ would come to anyone in a burning building.“Gather the rest, now.” Dominic commanded and the man hurried out immediately.“Get to your room.” He instructed before heading towards the door.“To do what? Hide out?”He stopped on his tracks and turned to me, “don't even think about arguing with me.”“Then let me help.”“What is it with you and helping in dangerous times?” He almost yelled.“I'm a member of this pack…”“Sit your ass in a bloody room. Don't make me repeat myself.” He walked towards the door, almost disappearing from my sight when I yelled out.“I promise I won't interrupt you!”He stopped again, his back faced towards him.With the way he stood quietly with his back turned, it was as though he contemplated giving me out yo the attacks.“Scarlett, today isn't the day I'd die. Stop the needless protection.” With that he walked out the room.I felt goosebumps on my arms as he walked out the room without me.
Scarlett's POV.The familiar sound of hers clicking on the floor stopped right in front of me. The smell of her intoxicating perfume filling my nose instantly.“Is there something you want?” I folded my arm, disinterest clear on my face.“Talking nowadays is a problem?” She questioned.“Talking? To you? Oh my dear, you're not one to be spoken to, especially since you've hinted having a bad side towards me.”“Scarlett, I acted out of fear, alright?” She came closer, her manipulative look displayed on her face.“You asked for immunity for you and my husband or threatened to ruin I and the Alpha's image. How was that fear?”“You wouldn't understand, Scarlett.”“What I understand is that you and Luca are a little too close of late. Care to share something with me?” I tiled my head.“Care to share your closeness with your husband's father?”What a petty attack, but I didn't expect more.“Exactly.” She let out a sigh, “fine, we've both messed up. We've all messed up. I was only looking out
Scarlett's POV.“And where do I keep these records?” one of the men I assumed had dealings with Dominic's biker group asked.“Stack it with the other records. I want details on the Eastern territory by tomorrow. We need to make a stop there.” “Noted, Boss.”The sound of the door clicking shut after Dominic's worker walked out the room filled the space.I sat like it's time out while he flipped through his files, probably forgetting my existence.Somehow, I found myself having no form of activity whatsoever.The clubhouse usually opened late at night and everyone was free to go about their day during the day, but I for one had never really had activities…except when Luca had something for me.I really had no life outside that man.“So,” Dominic's voice echoed, pulling me out of my thoughts, “what do you have for me?”I squinted my eyes a bit as I locked eyes with him. His expression was unreadable as usual, but I can tell he was curious to know what happened last night with Luca.“It'
