LOGINScarlett“Can you tell Atlas I’m here?” I turned to Lucas and asked. He took a step back clearly not expecting that. His face scrunched up like my question had thrown him off and that was exactly what I wanted.I didn’t want to hear any mushy tales about how he was stuck in love with me and wanted me back. I had a man in my life now, a man I wanted with every one of my being.Nothing could change that.Even the uncertainty surrounding everything couldn’t. I’d been thinking about what Atlas could possibly be doing now. Was he looking for me?Had he even realized I was gone? Did he defeat Seraphine and her evil father or did he succumb to pressure by marrying her? A lot of things were going through my mind right now and none of them had anything to do with whether Lucas had missed me or not.“I just told you I missed you baby and the first thing you do is ask about that other man? Do you truly no longer care for me?” He asked, surprising the hell out of me. Was this man really okay?
Scarlett“You’re awake.” An unfamiliar voice calmly said the second I opened my eyes, startling me.“Ummm.” I groaned in pain as I tried to sit up with all my strength.“Easy dear.” The strange man said. I sat up properly still staring at the unfamiliar yet familiar surroundings. Where was I? How did I get here in the first place and who was sitting next to me?Had he been watching me as I slept? “Have you been watching me sleep?” I asked and the man chuckled before shaking his head.“I’m not a creep I promise. I only came to check up on you then I saw you stirring awake. I haven't even been here for up to three minutes.” He said.He didn’t seem to be lying and I felt strangely calm around him. I didn’t see the need to shout or raise an alarm screaming “stranger, danger.”But how did I get here? This wasn't the abandoned fortress I’d been taken to by Westmoor. This looked like an actual comfortable home and it felt like I’d been here before.“I’m sure you must have many questions.”
VivienneI was going to kill Alpha Atlas today and no one could stop me.Today was the day I’d been waiting for a long time. After the disgrace I’d suffered in the hands of that terrible Alpha, he was going to meet his end today.When I took Seraphine to the witch, I had other plans. Sure I didn’t intend to harm Scarlett and I wasn’t going to hurt her. After all, she had done me no wrong.But Seraphine…I was going to stab her with the same poisoned dagger I’d gotten from the witch to kill Alpha Atlas. She really thought she could come into my home, mock me and then try to discard me with pennies all in the name of “giving me a better life”Funny.She only wanted to shred the last of my dignity. Atlas on the other hand, I’d spent years servicing his bed, being under him for most nights instead of spending them with the man I loved.I thought that at least those times he wore me out during his rut, it would count for something at least, but no…At the first sign of me messing up, he c
Seraphine“What do you mean there’s no trace of who carried her? How can we kidnap someone and someone kidnaps that same person right under our nose?” My father barked.I sat there hyperventilating.Why was everything falling apart? The plan had been flawless! The mating ceremony was supposed to happen in roughly five hours and now Scarlett was missing? Our only leverage was missing and we had no idea where she must have gone. Who the fuck dared to mess with their lives and take someone under my father’s protection? I couldn’t think of a single soul.It was certainly not Atlas. He was supposed to be here any moment now to go on with the wedding because we agreed it should be held in my father's pack.If he’d somehow managed to rescue her, he wouldn’t be going on with the ceremony. He’d be burning everywhere to the ground and not having a conversation. Atlas would for sure kill us all…I knew that and my father knew that too, the reason why he was lashing out at the guards. But wha
Lucas“We have to leave immediately.” I turned to Cole and he nodded. I didn’t know if I could trust him either but I wanted to believe I didn’t make a mistake bringing him into this. I was trusting my instincts that he wouldn’t do anything funny or try to harm his cousin but if he tried to play foul, I wouldn’t hesitate to end him. The priestess had managed to use Cole’s blood to narrow down Scarlett’s location. To be fair, the connection wasn’t strong enough to tell us exactly where she was…But at least we had a clue because it reacted most strongly to an abandoned fortress on the western edge of Westmoor and that was enough.I considered telling Atlas her whereabouts for a moment because I knew too well he’d been going crazy over not knowing where she was, especially since she was carrying their pup.But I let go of the thought immediately.If I told him and he saved her first before I got there, then I wouldn’t have any chance with her again and he’d appear as her hero.But if
Lucas“Where’s he?” I asked impatiently.“He’s on his way, Alpha. He set out once we sent for him.” My beta bowed. Even hearing that Cole was already on his way didn’t soothe the ache in my chest.Cole was Scarlett’s cousin and one of her surviving relatives from her father's family. I discreetly sent him a message saying that I knew where his cousin, the late Ironwood’s pack enforcer's daughter was.I never wanted to do that but I think it’s time.God…I loved Scarlett! I loved her so much more than I ever imagined I could so that was why when the opportunity presented itself, I grasped at the straws forgetting everything else.I wanted her in my life and the fact that she had this huge crush on me and was ready to take things forward with me just made me feel over the moon.I entered the relationship with deceit because I wanted to keep her by my side. I didn’t tell her the truth about how I’d found out about her in the first place.I lied to her that the only reason I didn’t confes
ScarlettRain poured endlessly from the sky as I ran barefoot through a dark forest. The branches from different trees scratched against my skin while thunder cracked violently above me, but somehow… I wasn’t scared.I should’ve been terrified, instead, heat flooded my body in dangerous waves and
ScarlettAfter mom chased me out of the house I couldn’t think of anywhere else to go apart from Zara’s so I made my way there as fast as my legs could carry me.I knocked weakly on Zara’s apartment door, hugging myself tightly as cold night air brushed against my skin. The moment the door swung op
Scarlett“Congratulations ma’am you're pregnant.” The doctor said, handing me a report that left me confused.What the hell was I looking at? “What??? What do you mean she’s pregnant?” My mom asked, looking puzzled.I couldn’t even say anything, I just kept mute staring at the test results in my h
ScarlettI stared at the man in front of me, not even bothered that I had just spat water directly on his face in public.My only concern was the words that had come out of his mouth. Was he nuts? What did he mean by *I was carrying his child? And how did he know I was pregnant in the first place?
