I felt my whole body wet, it was like I was in the middle of rain... I quickly jerked up but couldn't stand up since I was tightly tied to the chair."Wakey wakey princess.." I heard my father's deep familiar voice, remembering how stupid I was to have made them one step past me."My dear sweet daughter…""Don't call me that you don't deserve it.." I cut him off before he could even complete his sentence."That is very wrong if you darling, of all time you should be very obedient because you will soon be useless to me." "I know the only thing making you keep me was because of the position I held, trust me I will never make your plan come to pass." "Hmmm, let's see if you can say that tomorrow." My dad suddenly got mad and stood from the chair."Your stubbornness!.... This has always made me very careful around you! This has always made you! I will make sure you go meet your mother soon, you just have to wait for some time." "I will make sure to send you to her first before I follow
SCARLETTA dark creature crawled to where I lay, I couldn’t breathe for a minute, I tried to stand up to save myself, but I couldn’t. It approached me and stared at me intensely. I couldn’t describe what the creature looked like but it was covered with a cloak.I wanted to call for Karen, I wanted to scream for help, but my vocal cords were gone.“Don't stress yourself, you will get better as soon as I leave," the creature whispered, seeing what I was doing."We shall help you achieve your goals soon.." the creature said again sniffing my body.How the hell did it know what my goal is and what the hell does it mean by 'we'?“You are still stubborn like your mother..” the creature laughed hard.Who is this? What does it want from me?I tried to shift backward but it seemed my body was stiff."Have you ever thought of your mother’s death and what might cause her to commit suicide? Have you ever wondered why your father never liked your mother and why he wants you dead? Don’t be so du
I turned to my side and yawned, I didn’t want Karen to see my face after devouring a fully roasted animal. I also couldn’t afford to sleep. I know my father would be freaking out, and finding me right now.If he found out that Karen rescued me he won’t back down, he will want to wage a war against Karen. He also knew I was strong but not too strong enough to break out from an iron chain, he knows that I have not mastered witchcraft or met any to teach me. So I guess he will be trying to find out who the traitor might be. Truth was, I could gain magic…. My mother was a witch and a werewolf but never practiced it.That was what disturbed me now, why didn’t she practice magic as a werewolf? To keep my thoughts from dire scenarios, I let my gaze glide along Karen’s face. The light from the moon and the stars frequently glanced off his sexy lips. He was a solidly built man with a thick, muscled neck that alluded to much physical labor, thanks to him for rescuing me. His masculine yet
SCARLETT In the morning I woke up kind of refreshed. I looked toward Karen to see he was lying in a bower made by a living tree with branches laced and drooping to the ground.His bed was of fern and grass, deep soft, and strangely fragrant. The sun was shining through the fluttering leaves, which were still green upon the tree. I stood from the place I was sleeping and went to get cleaned a bit before he woke up.Suddenly Karen jumped up and also came to get ready to return to his pack along with me who was already washing off.I was now sitting on the grass near the edge of the wood studying the weather and the sky.“We need to start heading to my pack,” Karen said as he got to where I was sitting."There we would be served breakfast, the bread over there would taste almost as good as it should be. You won’t think of having a leftover after
KAREN "Scarlett?" I heard Karen call my name since I was so lost staring at the lady who just talked bluntly to me and walked away."Is there anything wrong?... I have been calling you for some time now…" He had now changed his cloak and was now putting on just a shirt and trousers making him look like a simple man... I noticed he loves putting on this more than his normal expensive robe which always makes him stand out."No… nothing.." I murmured, I wanted to ask him who that lady was, but since I couldn't describe her I decided not to bother. "Alright, I wanted to let you…""Let's talk today Karen… we shouldn't continue postponing it," I said as I looked around, finding a well-secluded place for the both of us to have the conversation."Let's go to my office…" he said as he walked ahead making me tag along with him."You can say what you want now.." I gently walked into his office looking around and surveying it. It is magnificent but I wasn't letting that get in my mind.“
SCARLETTLove is far from me, I think I have to make him believe that I love him and keep on lying low in his pack till I am ready to think of how to go about my plan. Seeing this girl and the pack members don't like me hurt me a lot, but this wasn't the time to be emotional but smart.He thinks I am into him after the intimacy we had last night, which was my heart that went first. nightBefore my mind could know what was happening, I said some assurance words to him to keep the emotions in him flowing. I hope he keeps it in check.I will keep making him believe that I am in love with him… really love? I just can’t imagine myself loving someone like him in reality, I have to accept him as my mate, just for the mission.I strolled out of the house to the garden full of fruits and vegetables approaching me as a troop of warriors, with stone faces.I moved aside to give them a full space to march, but they halted and turned towards me, their eyes filled with anger.I avoided their faces
LUCASWhen I was sure I was out of Karen's pack, I climbed a tall tree beside the pack. I just faced towards the north making Karen assume that I had left the environment.I sighted a lady dressed in a red cape, she was forcing a smile on her face, smiling at everyone she came across.At first, I thought she wasn't the person I wanted to believe she was, but I was very wrong… she was here in Karen's pack.Just as Greg said, Karen was the one who rescued her.It’s Scarlett, Scarlett was the one dressed in a robe… my anger gave way to my wolf to be out, I was transforming into a wolf aggressively hanging still on the tree. I howled in anger, my claws were longer than before, and my eyes were dead as poison.I scanned and zoomed in Scarlett and Karen's direction, they were heading towards a big hall.I jumped down from the tree and mounted one of the warriors, my claws cut deeper into him, flinging anyone that came my way.I targeted the hall and moved towards the hall of initiation. T
SCARLETT Getting into his room, I helped him sit on the bed…His room is magnificent, for the way he stalks and comes to my pack talking and doing all stuff, I still haven't gotten used to this kind of him.Sometimes I tend to forget he is also a powerful Alpha acting like a weakling before me because of the mate bond. I still haven't figured out why he doesn't look for another girl and let me be… I don't want to give him false hope, I don't want to use him… I don't want to betray him.. but he keeps throwing himself in front of the already-sharpened dagger."Where can I get a towel and water?" I asked since this is the first time getting into his room. I don't want to act too forward.But all he just did was sit there staring at me until I snapped my fingers in front of him."I asked a question, mister," I reminded him, seeing how he was so lost a few seconds ago."Scarlett, you know you can get it in the bathroom… stop acting like a guest, you are my mate after all." Not wanting t
