Happy Reading 😊
Clad in comfortable nightwear, Scarlett strolled out of the closet. The image of Nicholas emerging from the same closet was still etched in her mind, causing a headache. The last thing she wanted was to be swayed by him, but it seemed to be happening faster than she anticipated. Sighing, Scar got on the bed and laid down.‘Better fall asleep before he comes.’ Scarlett kept chanting the same line in her mind, and Ulva rolled her eyes. ‘Stop acting so pitiful!’ Ulva growled, and only then did Scarlett calm down.Lost in thoughts about the recent events, Scarlett’s eyelids grew heavy, and she drifted into a deep sleep. When Nicholas emerged from the bathroom, Scarlett was already in a deep slumber. He laid down beside her, the moonlight casting a gentle glow on her face, accentuating her beauty and innocence. He couldn’t tear his eyes away.‘I wonder how beautiful her wolf will be,’ Damon purred. ‘If only I could reach her.’‘What is this girl, Damon? Why can’t I read her mind?’‘I wish
‘He rejected us, Ulva. We can’t shift now,’ Scarlett reminded her wolf. ‘You need to control for a few more days till I find a solution,’ she said with a sense of determination.‘Do it fast, Scar. I am losing it day by day. You saw what happened earlier, right? For a moment, I lost myself! That was very scary, Scar,’ Ulva groaned, a hint of desperation in her voice.‘What happened today angered him more,’ Scar replied with a sigh. ‘The only possibility now is to make him fall in love with us. With our shifting, we also need to make sure things happen as planned so that we can get back at George.’‘Hmm. You’re right...’ Ulva agreed reluctantly. ‘For that, we need to know Nicholas more, but he is always running away from us!’ She growled at the last part. ‘The worst part is, I can’t even reach his Lycan. It only depends on you now.’Scarlett stayed silent for a few seconds, her eyes following Nicole’s movements from the corner of her eyes as she drove the car. After Nicholas left, Nicol
‘No, Scar! Don’t close your eyes!’ Ulva’s voice echoed urgently in Scarlett’s mind, causing her to groan in response to yet another punishing blow. She felt another hit, and her body burnt in pain.But then, a primal growl erupted from the depths of Scarlett’s being, signaling a profound shift within her. In a dramatic twist, her eyes burst open, ablaze with an orange inferno adorned with a silver sparkle. Like a fierce storm, she unleashed a rapid and calculated punch, feeling a satisfying connection before the air filled with a sharp grunt.Amidst the chaos, anxious screams reverberated in Scarlett’s mind, intertwining with Nicole’s worried exclamation. Scarlett’s vision wavered, threatening to succumb to the overwhelming assault, and her body felt numb. Her knees buckled, surrendering to the impending fall. However, just as the ground seemed inevitable, a pair of arms swooped in, holding her firm in place.Dave, returning from a brief call, was met with a scene of shock and fury. I
‘You killed that man.’‘Pttf,’ Scarlett choked on the water, managing to regain control just before spitting it out.‘What the fuck is wrong with you!? Do you think it’s some joke, Ulva!?’ She was angry.‘I am not joking!’ Ulva was equally furious. ‘It wouldn’t have happened if you let us shift, Scar! I kept telling you to shift, but you’re so bound by the rules! And now, see what happened!’Setting the water bottle aside, Scarlett sat up straight. Her head began to spin with the revelation of the truth. Inhaling deeply, she calmed herself before starting her conversation. ‘I don’t understand, Ulva. How is our shifting related to this? Killing a Lycan? Do you think it’s believable?’Ulva sighed, ‘I’m sorry for snapping like that, but...’ She sighed again, half groaning. ‘I did not lie, Scar. You killed that Lycan. No matter how unbelievable it sounds, it’s the truth.’‘How is that even possible, Ulva?’ Scarlett shook her head helplessly.‘Do you remember when I said I felt stronger a
“I’ve got this bad feeling, Brother,” Nicole said the moment her aunt and cousin exited the palace. “It could be them...”“Is something wrong with them?” Scarlett asked, unexpectedly caught in the middle of a family drama.Nicole sighed, “That’s Aunt Helena and her son Alex. Everyone knows Alex is gunning for the Alpha regent position. But, you see, the cards were in their court as Brother had no mate...”Scarlett blinked, connecting the dots, “And my arrival changed it all...” She realized the gravity of the problem and shivered, sensing the potential danger she was in. “We-were they the ones attacking me in the mall?”Her eyes searched Nicholas for an answer.Nicholas didn’t reply directly but turned to Scar, “We still don’t know the whole situation. For a few days, you should stay home, okay? I don’t want a repeat of the same incident.”For a moment, Scarlett felt the urge to let her emotions take over and kiss him, given how he looked at her and cared for her. But deep down, she k
“Was it them?” Dave asked the moment they stepped out of Tralington Fort.“They did not give away their thoughts,” Nicholas replied, his brows furrowed and deep in contemplation. “It’s not them...”“How?” Dave inquired.“Alex is not stupid. He knows if anything happens to Scarlett, especially the moment she arrives in the pack, all fingers will point at him. He wouldn’t take such a rash risk,” Nicholas explained, shaking his head. “It was someone else.”Dave grasped the point and nodded in agreement, “True.”“And what about the other attacker? Who was it?” Nicholas asked, and Dave shook his head.“It’s unidentified, Alpha... The news has already reached the council and other ranked members. It’s a mixed reaction. But, everyone was taken aback by the style of the attack,” Dave reported.“Hmm... Let’s see how things unfold in the meeting.”They entered the grand pack meeting hall, where all the ranked members and the entire council had gathered. Everyone rose to show respect to their Al
The following morning, Scarlett once again woke up alone on the bed. She tried not to let it bother her, but a nagging emptiness persisted.‘Good morning, Ulva,’ she greeted her wolf.‘Good morning, Scar...’After stretching and a few playful rolls on the bed, Scarlett got up and headed to the bathroom to freshen up. However, as she caught sight of herself in the mirror, a loud gasp escaped her lips. She covered her mouth in shock, her eyes widening as her mind raced. This couldn’t be real.Leaning in for a closer look, Scarlett confirmed it wasn’t a trick of the light. Several strands of her orange curls had transformed into a silvery hue, giving the impression that she’d gone for a daring hair makeover.‘Is this some kind of disease?’ she asked, seeking answers from Ulva.‘I don’t think so,’ Ulva replied uncertainly. ‘Maybe... it’s connected to the other changes,’ she added, referring to Scarlett’s newfound strength.Turning to the mirror again, Scarlett tentatively touched her hair
Scarlett found the idea of training with Nicole intriguing. Unable to venture out alone, seizing the chance to unleash some pent-up energy sounded like a great plan. Without much contemplation, Scarlett enthusiastically agreed. After breakfast, Nicole led Scar to her exclusive training spot in the palace’s backyard. Giving Scar a tour, Nicole showcased the area, and Scar found herself quite fond of the place. Donning their workout attire and securing her long curls, Scar embarked on her training session with Nicole.To Nicole’s surprise, everything went smoothly in the training arena. Scarlett embraced the training regimen, behaving like any other seasoned warrior, giving it her all. Two hours later, a slightly winded Scarlett decided to take a break. Ulva, too, seemed at ease after a good workout. As Scarlett reached for some water, Nicholas strolled onto the scene, with Dave trailing behind.Their eyes locked, and slowly, Nicholas’s gaze roamed over Scarlett, sending shivers down h
