MasukChapter 61: ScarlettMy vision was dark. My body wasn’t moving. But I could hear every sound around me.And I heard them.Goddess! Asher was working with Willow!My chest tightened as my breath started coming in gasps. Thankfully, whatever cursed spell she had placed on me, vanished and I jerked back into full consciousness.“Oh goddess… this is bad…” I mumbled as the panic and realization tore through me.I had to do something. I couldn’t let Willow hurt my brother.Quickly I ran to the closet and pulled out a large robe and wrapped it around myself before I began running out of the room.I had no idea where I was going but I knew I had to find a sort of solution. I had to stop their plan from happening.My heart was ramming hard in my chest and I barely picked up the echoing footsteps of someone coming in my direction until I ran straight into them.We both lost balance and my body was already swaying towards the floor when their hands steadied me.“My Queen!” Bee cried out. “Are yo
Chapter 60: AsherIt was already torture sleeping in the same room with her and not touch her. But she raised the bars by sleeping in that dangerous little piece of garment—Who even made such a thing and thought it was right to sell it to women? Especially women as beautiful as Scarlett?It should be a crime!No sane man could sleep peacefully knowing there was such a beautiful meal behind them… just in their arms reach.Yet I couldn’t touch her.After that night at the dungeon with her, I couldn’t bring myself to touch her anymore. Because I knew that the moment I gave in to that temptation I was doomed to forever chase her like a dog.I promised myself to abstain and keep my mind clear for the ceremony ahead. Once that was over, I would go on and drink the Aphrodisiac which should help me forget her completely.That was the only way.But if I made the mistake of touching her now, the Aphrodisiac was going to be a failed project. And I wasn’t about to let that happen.Yet even while
Chapter 59: ScarlettI thought finally being out of the cell would feel like true freedom. But I was wrong.As the first day came to an end, I was already retiring to my room, hoping to get a chance to rethink my plan and execution strategy but a sharp knock turned me back to the door."Albert?" I whispered with narrowed eyes and a skip in my heart. "What are you doing here?"He didn't look carefully around us like he normally did. His wise eyes remained calm and fixed on him as he stood at the door.It instantly clicked that this wasn't a private meeting... It was official.But this late?"Did something happen to Asher?" I asked as the fear started trickling inside of me like poison."Goddess, no!" He cried out, shaking his head. "I actually came to take you with me..."My eyes widened in understanding and shock. "Asher requested for me?""No," Albert replied, the light in his eyes flickering. "I actually advised him to spend the night in the same room as you, just in case your broth
Chapter 58: ScarlettMy eyes instantly flew to Asher at the elders comment and from the subtle panic swimming in his orbs, I knew he hadn't thought to arrange for that.And frankly, I didn't even think of it because I thought he would have it figured out.But somehow, I had to save the day. That was my job.When Albert had come to finally set me free, I told myself that it was going to be the last time Asher had me arrested. Because I was going to prove my worth beyond being just a mate.I was going to show him my importance as his Luna. And this was my chance."That has been arranged for... right?" One of the elders asked, following the brief silence that settled.Asher was slightly fidgeting, so I took up courage. "Oh sure. Everything has been taken care of. Someone will be with you shortly to get your preferences in women," I suddenly countered, shocking the hell out of him."Ah beautiful," they beamed with excitement as one of the maids quickly came to lead them to their rooms.A
Chapter 57: AsherDays have passed since that night, yet every morning I woke up with a foul mood.I went about my duty, barely speaking or talking to anyone— except Angel, who for some reason was working extra hard to always be in my line of sight.Even if I didn't call for her, she kept coming. And somehow, I let her.I had to.Even if Scarlett was my fated mate and my heart fucking belonged to her, I couldn't give in to those emotions.No. My entire generation depended on it.If I allowed the love to grow beyond what it already was, I would end up abandoning my fight for justice. I would end up leaving her family on my lands.So I avoided her or anything that had to do with her and chose to focus my energy on Angel instead.But I could only do this for so long. The first guests were already scheduled to arrive for the festival and I was going to face her again.My heart was already starting to race but I decided to enjoy the moments for as long as I could.So, that day, I spent it
Chapter 56: AsherThe moment I got to my room, I couldn't sleep. I tried to convince myself over and over that Scarlett was alright but I couldn't.In the end, I got off my bed and went down to the dungeon again.I told myself that the moment I saw her, I would just make sure she was healthy and that truly the inducers had been removed. Then I would turn back.My wolf was restless and my body was hot with need. Yet I kept lying to myself that I was only going to check on her and return to my room.When I finally got to the dungeon, the guards didn't wait to be sent out before they did the needful.The moment they saw me coming, they bowed and turned to the corridors, leaving the main hall and cell empty.As I walked past them, their leader handed me the key with a low bow, his eyes fixed on the ground.I was about to pass him when I suddenly stopped, recalling what I could need from him."How is she doing?" I asked him.The man met my gaze in surprise before turning his eyes away. "Sh
Chapter 36: ScarlettI stayed on the bed hugging the pillow to myself. My tears were dancing in my eyes but I held them back. Bee was right.I had to be strong. This was a war.War against Luciano and his horrible plans to destroy my family. War against the hatred he had placed into Asher's heart.
Chapter 38: ScarlettThe excitement I felt earlier about getting the solution to having a baby sooner dropped as fear clutched my heart at Bee's words."We have to make sure that Luciano doesn't succeed and this is more than just you... The entire realm depends on it..." Bee kept saying but I was n
Chapter 32: ScarlettAs Luciano's demand echoed in my head, I did the first thing my disgusted brain could think of— I spat at him."You are sick!" I hissed, glaring daggers at him.Anger that I couldn't define brewed inside of me as I watched him gently wipe his face clean and then lick the saliva
Chapter 37: ScarlettAs Asher walked out of the room, my smile grew into a chuckle. And rather than stop, I decided to take everything to the next level.I ate my food as fast as I could and joined the maids in the kitchen."Excuse me, can you help me pack up some food in a fancy box for the King?"
