Chapter 8:
“What do you feel like eating?” Gabriel asked as he took their empty breakfast dishes to the sink, they had something light, yogurt, fruit, granola and espresso. “I have no idea, my palet is inexperienced, you could introduce me to anything and I would most likely fall inlove with it.” Scarlette stated, while getting up to look for an outfit for their date, it’s usually ice cold in a cinema. Over the knee black 3 inch boots with a plether skirt and obviously leggings under that to keep warm. She wore a long sleeved white crop top that met the skirt to close her stomach completely, a black coat and a white purse to complete the look. Gabriel vamped in and out of the room dressed to match her. “I was thinking italian?” He asked her clipping his cufflinks. “Pizza?” Whe asked frowning, thinking to herself that isn’t really date food. “Not necessarily but it would be on the menu at the restaurant we are going to.” She noded her head as he opened the door to her apartment. “Can we watch

Chapter 9:
Scarlette spent the next few days in a daze, trying to process everything that had happened with Gabriel and Isabella. She couldn't believe that Gabriel had kept Isabella's existence a secret from her, and she was confused about what she wanted from their relationship. Alpha Jackson had been a great support to her, and she appreciated his friendship more than ever.One day, Scarlette decided to take a walk in the nearby woods. She needed some time alone to clear her head. As she walked, she heard a rustling in the bushes behind her. She turned around, but there was no one there. She shrugged it off and continued walking, but the feeling of being watched didn't go away.Suddenly, she heard a twig snap. She spun around and saw a figure emerging from the shadows. It was Isabella.Scarlette's heart raced as Isabella approached her, a sinister smile on her face."Well, well, well. What do we have here?" Isabella said. "Seems like Gabriel's new toy has wandered into my territory."Scarlette

CHAPTER 10:
“Lydia, do you think there is a way that we could enter the other timeline?” Scarlette asked curiously making everyone in the room look at her skeptically. “Gabriel have you been letting the women watch too much DC Series while you mock The flash’s speed?” Mikael asked him with amusement clear in his voice. “I would advise against trying to mess with other timelines” Jedreel said as he flashed into the room. “I didn’t summon you.” Scarlette muttered confused, “Mother sent me when she heard what you had planned” this made everyone in the room self aware. “Will she be visiting us again? I have questions.” Sasha said with a bit of venom in her voice. “She is…. Preoccupied at the moment, you will have to wait 500 years for her to come back again.” Jedreel responded “Good enough since we are all immortal.” Sasha fired back. “Why can’t I go there Jed?” Scarlette asked again. “What do you want to go do there Scarlette?” He fired back clearly irritated that she had the audacity to questio

Chapter 11:
"There is nothing on this Helle person or being anywhere" Sasha groaned while Lydia chewed her pencil in frustration clearly thinking the same thing. "My family and their fucking secrets" Scarlette muttered her own frustrations. "I'm sorry I cannot help with this matter, I don't even know if I existed at that time already or not. " Gabriel stated while Mikael got up and vamped over into Gabriel's apartment presumably for a bag of blood. The werewolf Alpha King was the only one quietly still deep-diving the internet. "That's okay, I wasn't expecting you to have any knowledge of this. I am just frustrated that I am a Demi-Goddess with the ability to see the past present and future but I cannot look at my own." Sasha gave her a pitiful look as she took a sip of her redbull to keep up her energy, she knew she wouldn't like such a look so she changed the subject. "So have y'all completed your mating bond yet?" She asked throwing her eyebrows up and down "As much as I'd like to that is a

Chapter 12:
As Gabriel and Scarlette left the mansion, Scarlette couldn't help but chuckle at the memory of Morgana's warning. "What's so funny?" Gabriel asked, amused by Scarlette's sudden laughter. "It's just that Morgana thinks she has a chance with you when you're already taken," Scarlette replied, trying to hold back her giggles. Gabriel chuckled as well, "Well, she clearly doesn't know what she's up against." Suddenly, a gust of wind blew and Scarlette's skirt flew up, revealing her polka-dot underwear. Gabriel burst out laughing at Scarlette's embarrassed face. "I'm sorry, it's just too funny," he said, trying to control his laughter. Scarlette's face turned beet red as she tried to push down her skirt. "Hey, at least no one else saw it," Gabriel teased. They both laughed as they continued their walk back to their safe haven, glad for the lighthearted moment in the midst of their troubles. --------------------------------- "Good evening Mr Casanova" Scarlette said as she opened her eyes l

Chapter 13:
The next day, Scarlette woke up to find Gabriel gone. She panicked for a moment before remembering that he had gone out to run some errands in town. She sighed in relief and got out of bed.After freshening up, she walked around the cabin, admiring the nature surrounding her. Suddenly, her phone rang, and she saw that it was Jackson."Hey, Jackson," she answered, smiling."Hey, Scarlette. I hope I'm not interrupting anything," he said, his voice laced with worry."No, I was just admiring the view outside. What's up?""I have some bad news," he said, pausing. "It's about Isabella."Scarlette's heart skipped a beat. "What happened?""She's dead, Scarlette. Someone killed her last night."Scarlette gasped, her eyes widening in shock. "Oh, my God. Do they know who did it?""Not yet, but I have a feeling it has something to do with Gabriel's clan. They're not too happy about him being with you, and Isabella was always a thorn in their side. I just wanted to warn you to be careful."Scarlett

Just as they were about to leave Scarlette's apartment Mikael was at the door about to knock. Causing a frown to appear on Gabriel's face, Mikael usually gives a warning before he shows up. This immediately put the vampire king on edge. "What happened," He asked his second "The council had sent word they are on their way to Louisiana, the whole clan felt you mating with Scarlette last night, and the council is not happy that she is not of our kind" Mikael muttered very ashamed of his clan's behavior. "Thank you for letting me know," Gabriel said looking his second in the eye as when he said those words with his hand on Mikael's shoulder. "Scarlette, it seems I must go back to my mansion to deal with this." He said to her about to kiss her head but she moved to her bedroom "I'm coming with you, they're my clan too" She said to him with determination, the worried look Mikael gave him assured him in his feeling that this will not go down well. "Luv, I know that you want to put the coun

Scarlette paced back and forth as she waited for Gabriel to return. Fear and worry clouded her mind as the thoughts of what could have happened to him raced through her head. She tried to stay positive, but the unknown was paralyzing.Suddenly, she heard a rustling outside the cabin. Her heart raced and she reached for the stake Gabriel had left for her before he left. As the door opened, Scarlette gripped the stake tightly, ready to defend herself.But it was Gabriel. He looked exhausted and troubled as he stumbled inside. Scarlette dropped the stake and ran to him, taking him into her arms."What happened? Are you alright?" she asked, her voice filled with concern.Gabriel shook his head, "I took care of the situation, but it was worse than I thought. Isabella was killed by one of our own. He went rogue and the others are trying to cover it up."Scarlette's eyes widened in shock, "What are we going to do?"Gabriel sighed heavily, "I don't know. But we can't stay here. It's not safe a

"So you're not going to tell me what happened at your mansion?" Scarlette asked Gabriel halfway to the French Quarter in his Camero, "OUR mansion luv" She frowned at him not understanding what that had to do with the price of eggs so continued to stare at him until he answered her question. "Well, I was 'told' to reject you and seek a vampire I can mate with." He said squirming in the driver's seat clearly very uncomfortable with the whole conversation. "You can choose who you mark?" Scarlette asked perplexed, "I can but I chose to exercise patience and wait for the one who was made for me." He responded this made Scarlette wonder why he would choose to wait so long, the loneliness that he had endured waiting for her his entire existence. He gently squeezed her thigh in reassurance, "You were worth the wait luv, you are everything I expected and more." He said putting her heart at ease as they pulled up at the apartments and rode the lift up together. "How about we stay at your pla

As they rested in the hidden cave, Scarlette couldn't shake off the feeling that they were being watched. "Gabriel, I have a bad feeling about this," she said, looking at him with concern."I know, my love. But we have to keep moving. We'll be safe soon," he reassured her, holding her hand tightly.They left the cave and walked deeper into the woods. Suddenly, Scarlette heard a loud rustling in the bushes, followed by a loud scream. She turned to see Gabriel a few feet away, holding a stake in his hand and looking at her blankly."Gabriel, what have you done?" she cried out, tears streaming down her face.He looked at her in confusion. "What are you talking about? I didn't do anything. I heard a scream and went to check it out," he said, dropping the stake to the ground.Scarlette walked over to the bushes, her heart racing. She saw a figure lying on the ground, blood pooling around them. She knelt down and turned the figure over, only to see that it was Jackson."He's...he's dead," sh
