Scarlet’s POV.The battle was a fierce one. But seeing that I was the last man standing, I knew I needed to hold steadfast. I struck Morgathis harder, fighting with every last of my breath. But you know, fate truly showed itself. Because why? I’ve been fated to win this time around, and Morgathis was a loser right from the start.The pack’s activities have carried on since after the defeat of Morgathis. I was back to my normal daily activities, ruling the pack and also attending to the pack’s businesses. “Pack the remains from the neighboring packs. Their gold, silvers, anything you can get. They are ours now.” I commanded the guard, and I watched them bow their heads and leave. Apparently, Joel has been sleeping for days. I was able to save him after the war. Sending soldiers to find a doctor to complete the work I started because my tears appeared to have healed Joel on the battlefield. I was still in the meeting with the elders when one of the soldiers I had sent in search of Dami

Scarlet’s POV“From now on,” I started, my voice carrying not just weight, but demanding the silence that followed. Blood flowed down past my feet as I watched the Minister of Finance hold my legs, letting me know Jace was the only child he had.“If anyone tries to come against me, or rises to take this throne from me, I won’t take it lightly,” I threatened, my voice echoing through the courtroom as I tried to control my emotions.“Luna, I’m sorry. He won’t—I mean, we won’t ever come close to hurting you or the unborn child. But please, bring back my child,” he pleaded, as he cradled Jace’s dead body.Joel, on the other hand, stared back at me, his eyes fixed on mine as he walked inside slowly, bowing before me.“I know the power of life and death is in your hands, Luna. Please, kindly wake my only child. Even if you want to relieve me of my position—”“Then it is done,” I answered before he could finish his statement, dropping my sword to the ground. “You’ll drop your title and every

Scarlet’s POV“Yes!” I seethed, already carried away by another imagination, one that had already left me dripping beneath.Fuck! I’m so fucking wet. These days, my imagination has been doing more, helping me to stay sane, but right now I really crave a man’s toughness. I need someone beside me.Deep down, I act like I’m fine. But honestly, I need someone firm. I need Damien back, or I might finally fall for Joel, and this is what I’ve been avoiding.“I’m so sorry. I only came back to let you know that your presence is needed in the palace,” he replied, his eyes troubled.“What happened?” My brows furrowed as I approached him quickly, staring at the exit, seeing someone who looked like a mad person. Obviously, I’d never seen a mad werewolf before. But this person I was looking at from afar—“He came from the neighboring packs.”“I thought we were the only ones that existed after the war—”“He said he was pushed out by his pack. So, when the war happened, he was able to hide himself un

Scarlet’s POVJust then, Joel broke away from the kiss, his eyes closed, pushing me backward. His hands gripped my shoulders while I watched him lick his lips.“You cannot do this, Scarlet.”“I know. And I—I’m sorry,” I said, taking another step back. My heart was racing, my hands trembling as I struggled to meet his gaze.“Scarlet,” he called again for the second time. Dropping the honorifics, he stared at me with the utmost respect. “I wouldn’t want us to do this.”“I—I don’t know what came over me. I’m sorry,” I apologized, trying hard to keep my racing heart steady, but it wouldn’t listen to me.“It’s fine. I just—I can’t take it if it keeps happening, Scarlet. Can’t you see how much I’m trying to stop myself?” He continued staring at me, taking a few steps backward, leaving me to my own devices.“I’ll leave now,” was the last thing he said before dashing out of the courtroom at full speed, leaving me alone in the room with teary eyes.I couldn’t hold myself together any longer, e
