BRAD’S POVNow was the time I wanted to have a date with Scarlet as everything I had planned for it, was now set. I picked up my phone, and dialed her contact. After a while, she finally answered the call.“Hey Scarlet. So, I feel tonight would be the perfect time for our date. I hope you don’t have anything you’re doing at that time?” I asked her, hoping she was going to make it.“Well, I think I’ll be able to make it. You can just send me a text of the address, and I’ll get ready for it.” She replied, over the phone.This was so exhilarating. I didn’t need to go through any stress to make her do what I wished.“Alright, sure.”I hung up, and texted her the address of the restaurant, and all I just needed to do was to wait for nightfall.Soon, night fell so fast, like it knew that I was eagerly waiting for it to come. I dressed up, and headed off to the restaurant. I had ensured that they served us the best meal to sweep Scarlet off her feet.Now, I just had to wait for her arrival. S
SCARLET’S POVI winced out in pain, but it wasn’t also loud enough for people to hear as I didn’t want to attract attention. I didn’t know what Brad had in mind to do, in case I got him really pissed, now.“You’re hurting me, Brad.” My voice shook, expressing my pain.“That’s why you should sit, or I’ll keep hurting you. For goodness sake, I’m not done speaking, yet.” He said, in between his teeth.Oh, my goodness. Brad hadn’t changed at all. He was just still the same Brad I knew before all this pretense came up. Why was I so blind that I couldn’t notice it?So, all these romantic stuffs were all a pretense, his play to get to me, and that hurt me deeply as I figured that out. I stared into his determined eyes, and hesitantly sat down.“So, all you were doing was just for show.” “Pfft! And if I tell you that you’re right, what are you going to do about that? Wait, for a moment, did you think you deserved the sweet things I did for you?” Brad mocked, and chuckled.His actions were li
SCARLET’S POVI halted, and exhaled sharply. I suddenly had a feeling like someone was calling out to me, and that feeling made me lose the will to finish off Brad for good.“You should count yourself lucky that I would let you off the hook. But after this, never try to come close to me, or I’ll be forced to kill you, no matter what!” I warned him, and left.I walked back into the restaurant, acting like nothing had happened, and then picked up my bag, and walked out through the front door.It was still shocking and surprising on how I was able to conquer Brad so easy, like it was an easy-peasy. I stared at my hands as I walked down the street to get a cab, and wondered how strong I could be as a Lycan.First, I finished Valerie off, now, I could have almost killed the son of the Alpha. Something in me just made me feel like there was more to my Lycan powers, and I needed to know about it before it becomes too much for me to control.I waved my hand for a cab driver to stop, and he st
SCARLET’S POVI curled under the covers, and a little part of it was soaked in tears. It was quite unbearable to live with the thought that I betrayed Elias.Carla had told me to be careful, but I was carried away by my awoken feelings for Brad. I was such an idiot, and Brad must have known that, that’s why he came back to trick me.Hot tears glided on my soft cheeks, and nothing interested me at all. Not even my favorite food could make me feel better at this point. This was the first time which Elias would look really angry with me. His eyes expressed how hurt he was, and the worst is I don’t even know what to do to calm him down.I sniffled, and exhaled sharply. Well, the best thing to do is to apologize, hopefully that he would take my apologies and look at how sincere I am with them.It was only when I came to a resolution that I felt a bit better, and ready to sleep. I laid down on the bed, and stared at my bedside lamp, eager for morning to come, to try my luck with my apology
ELIAS’ POV“I’m still surprised to see you here, Beatrice. It’s been a long while, you know.” I said, with a smile on my face.“Exactly. It shouldn’t take too long to see you. I just missed my old friend, and thought to visit you.” Beatrice replied, and placed her hand on my shoulder, and we both stared at the beautiful scenery.“So, what have you been up to, lately? Any thing you’re working on, or sort?” I asked, to keep the conversation going.Then she turned to me with a wide grin.“Well, I kind of found something I now love doing.” She said, excitedly.“Really? Come on. Tell me. What is it?”“I love painting, and making art. I can show you a few paintings I’ve done if you come to visit. I feel I’m going to start selling them out once I become a pro.” Beatrice uttered proudly.“Wow. That’s great. If I see anyone that catches my eye, I could buy it.”“I know you have a great taste. In fact, one of a critic. So, if you are enthralled by any of my works, I’m going to feel honored.”“O
SCARLET’S POVI was ready to bear the heartache if he didn’t end up choosing me. Hopefully that I would heal faster than expected.“You. I choose you, Scarlet. And I will always choose you.” He responded, and leans in to kiss me.I couldn’t say a word as he had enveloped my mouth with his, and I continued with the flow by kissing him back with the same intensity he was using.The atmosphere felt great, and all I wanted was more of his love. Elias held my neck, and continued to give me the best kiss I have ever had. And I placed my hands on his back to feel the intensity of the kiss better.Then we both moved to the sofa, and laid down on it, still kissing me, until what seemed like a few minutes. Then he withdrew, and stared into my eyes affectionately.“There is nothing between Beatrice and I, and she isn’t even a problem. I don’t feel anything for her. Trust me.” Elias assured, and I nodded slowly.The next day, I woke up, feeling much better than the last nights which had been fill
SCARLET’S POVI sat down after Beatrice sat down, and I stared at her just the way a hawk would stare fiercely.“I heard about the loss of your mother. I know how hard that can be. How have you been holding up so far?” Beatrice asked, with concern.Although, I couldn’t just believe if that concern was real or not. People like her could be so cunning, and it was best for me to watch out.“I’m fine. Thanks to Elias and my best friend, I’m a bit better than how I could be, without them.” I said, with a straight face.“Oh, I’m glad about that. That reminds me. Elias and I are now back together, and we have been sleeping together for quite some time now.”“What?”“Yeah. I just decided to inform you on that, because you seem to have eyes for him.” Beatrice said, and folded her arms as she stood up.This can’t be true. There is no way Elias would do that to me, and he has already assured me that there is nothing between he and Beatrice anymore.Right now, it’s just certain that Beatrice want
After breakfast, Scarlet left her home, and headed off to Elias’ home. On her way to Elias’ home, she thought about how she was going to put it to Elias, and how he could react to the information.Even as much as she trusted Elias, she was hoping that everything went in her favor, rather than hearing anything that would break her heart once more.But Scarlet didn’t hear anything that broke her heart when she got to Elias’ room. Rather, she saw something that broke her heart.As she entered Elias’ room, blushing, she saw Beatrice lying naked on his bed. A gasp of shock escaped her mouth, and she moved backwards, staring at Beatrice in disbelief.“Told you.” Beatrice said, and giggled.Scarlet turned to the exit and ran out of Elias’ room, and out of the Lycans’ borders without stop, until she got to her home.Fortunately for her, Sylvia was asleep, and Carla was in the sitting room, watching a few TV shows. Carla was baffled when she saw tears, strolling down Scarlet’s eyes.“Scarlet,
