Scarlett’s POV

I stared at myself through the window.

“From now on, I’m going to avoid that heartless jerk,” I muttered under my breath.

I wiped my tears.

If I had to get justice for Enzo’s betrayal and Ember’s humiliation on my own, then I would do it.

I would go to Moonshadow Pack to meet Enzo. After all, he had given me signals that he still wanted me. Once inside his packhouse, I would sneak into his private study and search for evidence that he had killed Adrian.

Ember had once again calle

  • The Alpha’s Captive   Chapter 27: Let The Revenge Game Begin

    Jackson’s POV“Miriam, I’m heading out now. If Brianna returns, let her know that I wanted to see her before stepping out. But I do not know when I will be back,” I said, sternly.Miriam nodded. “I will, Alpha.”I began heading to the exit door. “Ah,” I said slowly, remembering something. I turned back to Miriam. “Where’s Scarlett?”“Luna Scarlett should be in her room,” she responded.After thinking for hours, I had decided to consummate our marriage tonight. There was no way Scarlett would give me a child if I didn’t touch her. I had to stop thinking sleeping with Scarlett meant I was betraying the love I had for Brianna. Brianna had rejected me and left me for Warren. Even if she was back, I had already made a deal with Scarlett.She was now my mate. Whether on paper or not. And as much as I hated to admit it I was already getting attracted to Scarlett. She was beautiful, brave, and intelligent. She hadn’t seemed smart to me the first day I saw her cleaning the floor of Moonsh

  • The Alpha’s Captive   Chapter 26: Brianna’s Secret Meeting

    Scarlett’s POV I watched Jackson dismiss the guards. He turned to me. “We can’t blame her.” I sure could. If Brianna knew that I was accused of being a murderer in the past, then she certainly knew Enzo, my former mate. She also knew allowing him into this Packhouse would be the best way to continue pissing me off. What the hell was wrong with her? “Excuse me,” I said, and walked away without waiting for his response. There was no use trying to explain to Alpha Jackson how vile Brianna was. He was obviously still wrapped around her little finger. Well, enough was enough. If she thought she could play games with me, the challenge was accepted. I had to put her in her place. I didn’t care if I was just Alpha Jackson’s contract mate, I didn’t care if she was his former mate, I was going to make her face the consequences of her actions. I didn’t even intend to expose her again. I went into the kitchen and found Miriam and Rhea there. “Greetings Luna,” the said in unison and l

  • The Alpha’s Captive   Chapter 25: A Dangerous Reunion

    Scarlett’s POVA week laterI had fully recovered. I heard a familiar voice downstairs and left my room to check who it was.I stopped when I saw Enzo.What was he doing here?I headed downstairs and stopped right in front of him.“What are you doing here?” I asked, folding my hands.“Hello to you too, Scarlett,” he said, his green eyes studying me. “You look prettier than the last time we saw each other.”I swallowed hard, then snapped. “Shut the fuck up, douchebag!” “Is this about what Ember did to you?” he asked, arching a brow. I rolled my eyes, remembering how Ember had humiliated me in that party. It had been weeks since then, but the memories were still fresh.“I’m sorry I couldn’t intervene,” he said, making a sad face.He had to be crazy to think he could fool me with that look.“You have a lot more to be sorry for,” I scowled.He nodded. “Yeah. I should never have abandoned you in prison, and taken your best friend as my mate. I regret it more than you can imagine. Ember h

  • The Alpha’s Captive   Chapter 24: A Marriage Waiting To Be Sealed

    JACKSON’S POVTHE NEXT DAY“I can’t believe her,” I snarled, leaning back. “She lied against Brianna. She also deliberately fell down the stairs to get my attention. She seems to forget we are only in this marriage for each other’s benefits.”Marcus remained quiet.I studied him. Didn’t he just hear what I said?“Marcus,” I called out.“Alpha Jackson,” he said, snapping out of his thoughts. “Sorry, I was lost for a minute.”“Is there a problem?” I asked, leaning forward. “You’re unusually quiet.”He looked at me, his eyes narrowing.“Why do you doubt Scarlett?” he asked, folding his hands. “Who in their right mind would deliberately fall down the stairs and get such an awful injury for attention? Scarlett is not stupid. She understands what a marriage contract is. She might have needed you to be a little more understanding towards her and caring, but that’s because you are her mate, regardless of the contract.”My eyes shifted to the door.Could Brianna have lied to me?I shook my hea

  • The Alpha’s Captive   Chapter 23: The Enemy In His Arms

    Scarlett’s POVI swallowed hard. Had she been researching me? Black Howl Pack had been welcoming towards me. If they found out I was accused of my former mate’s brother’s murder, they would start treating me indifferently, without wanting to know the truth behind everything that happened.“I didn’t murder Adrien. I’m innocent.”She laughed. “And who is going to believe that? I’m certain if mother Catherine knew about this, she would hate the fact that Jackson took you as his mate.”I forced my voice to be calm. “It was Luna Catherine that got me out of prison.”Her eyes narrowed. She didn’t believe it.“You’re lying! Catherine would never do such a thing. She would never save a murderer,” she yelled. “She saved me, because she knew I was innocent.”“And what makes you innocent? Your pretty green eyes? Your tenderness? Darling, people like you should be feared. You are evil to the core,” she spat, standing up.She walked to my bedside and reached for my injured leg.Fesr surged thro

  • The Alpha’s Captive   Chapter 22: Playing Dirty

    Scarlett’s POVAll of a sudden, I wished I didn’t ask him that.“I-I didn’t mean to ask you that,” I said quickly.A knock came on the door dismissively.“Come in,” Alpha Jackson said at once.Miriam opened the door and walked in.Jackson stood up. “Are you through with watering the plants?”She lowered her head. “Yes, Alpha.”“Stay with her,” he instructed, and began walking towards the doorway.Just like that? He didn’t even answer my question. If I had pissed him off, he could have just said so.One minute he was caring and protective, the next minute he was a grumpy jerk.Why?Was it because of the contract terms?I watched him leave the room. Miriam closed the door, and turned to me.The moment my eyes met her, she averted her gaze to the ground.“You don’t want to look at me?” I asked, flatly.Of course. That was what I had expected after she had supported Brianna’s lies against me.To think we had gotten so close. She was the first woman to speak to me when I had first arrive
