บททั้งหมดของ Luna Scarlett's Second Chance: บทที่ 111 - บทที่ 120

Roman's pov.“Okay Daddies, welcome to bring your Dad to class day.”The small class of small children scream in excitement and the smile that creeps up my face is slight but warm.Maya Tyson turns to catch my gaze and when our eyes lock, I wink.She giggles and turns to face the teacher once more.All the fathers stand at the back of the class and the teacher faces us while the kids face her.Maya and I had to make a stop at a fashion house on our way here and I let her pick out the perfect disguise for me. We were talking….. and she said I would be too noticeable in black, even with the hair change.Since her real Daddy isn’t here and she and her mum have run away from him, she knows I'm just standing in as her fake Daddy. Her fake daddy shouldn’t look like he can beat her teacher, that’s what Beta Fen is for.She had a specific look in mind for me, just so I could blend in. Her classes wouldn’t start till 10 a.m because of the event they have planned today so we did what all littl

The investors arrive a few minutes after 2 p.m. I contemplate telling them the whole pitch has been canceled and they can come back tomorrow for their pitch but that would be selfish of me.The fact that I have achieved nothing since I came here stops me.At least fifteen different group managers have come up to Roman’s office and seeing as he‘s not around, come to mine right after. I have listened to their complaints and nodded when I needed to nod, but deep down I know I haven't provided a solution.“They’re here, Scarlett.”I nod and take a deep breath. Fen holds my gaze and I try my best to look brave. To show him that I am brave and this isn’t going to be something I cow away from.“You don’t need to prove anything to anyone, Okay?”Fen speaks in the same fierce tone I've heard him speak to his warriors in. I don’t know why, but that tone makes me feel like he’s giving me some kind of respect.I nod, but I know I need to prove something to myself.“I’ll be in and out within an ho

Scarlett's pov Roman’s investors aren’t your normal set of people. First of all, they listen to me and are enraptured by my explanations on renewable energy, and that’s not all. Note that I am just freeballing here, I do not know in clear terms how to give a good pitch on what sustainable energy is or why they should be ready to invest in something that might or might not work because to be sincere, sources of renewable energy are limited and how to utilize them is even more so, but somehow these people sit and listen to me, asking questions at interval and asking what investing in this would do for them and why they should invest in it. From a personal angle, I think Roman just wants to do good for the world he lives in. This whole pitch and the investors part, feels like he has an agenda behind all of it. I may be wrong, and I may have messed up this pitch too, but that’s what it feels like to me. But what the hell? “That’s the end of my pitch.” The six people facing me blink r

“You did?” Maya nods and she turns to face me fully. “Uncle Danis said I'm special. He also said you’re lucky to have him since he knows all about special babies like me.” Okay, I can imagine Danis being all smug and saying that…. And I guess I am lucky in a way. A very audible “oof!” cuts through the air and a loud thud follows. My face whips to the source of the sound but Maya beats me to it. Her small neck turns just a fraction of a second faster than mine but we both see the same thing. Roman is grinning and he’s extending his hands towards his fallen Beta. Fen accepts the stretched hand and lets Roman pull him to his feet. “I want to ask Beta Fen to train me. Can I mummy?” I want to freeze and say no, but I know she’s safe with him. “How about you join the rest of the pups? They’ll be doing laps in a minute or two.” Roman’s voice strokes something in my mind and I lock my jaws even tighter because he’s walking towards us now and no way am I getting seduced by him talking

The dining hall falls into silence the moment Roman walks down the stairs into it. Even the children keep quiet and I feel Maya move closer to me on instinct.I reach out instinctively across the mate bond but Roman’s emotions singe me back. It’s like I have a mental burn and Fen meets my gaze when I look away from Roman. His gaze is knowing.I feel Roman when he stops. His presence across the mate bond becomes heavier and I remember I want to ask Danis about this mate bond now. I want to ask him why I can feel this much but that’s irrelevant now.I need to be near Roman.The room seems to release bated breath when he leaves and Maya makes a sound that comes off like a purr. Danis is already looking at me when I look at him and so is Fen.They want me to go after him, and I should, I know I should. But a strange fear has me paralyzed in my seat. I… I…should go to him. Roman would never hurt me while he’s angry. He’d never do that, he’s not Hunter.“Scarlett…”Roman isn’t angry at me,
