Chapter 31Scarlett's pov“One would think we were going to have dinner with a king Nora,” I commented as I stared at myself in the mirror.“Silas is alpha and to this pack, he is as good as any king,” Nora replied with a shrug as she zipped up my pale pink dress.“This looks so much better on you than it did on me,” She continued as she eyed me in the dress and I remained silent but I did agree with her. The dress was a simple cotton that caressed my skin delicately, clung against my upper body, and cascaded softly from my waist all the way to my ankles.“Now what to do with your hair,” Nora muttered as she led me to the chair in front of my dresser, and although I wanted to protest I knew it would be futile as nothing could stop Nora once she had set her mind to do something.“All done,” Nora took a step away from me and I stared at myself in the mirror with parted lips.I looked like myself yet I didn't, Nora had done a wonderful job with my hair and I couldn't help but wonder if

Chapter 33Silas’ pov“What are you doing here?” I gritted out as Scarlett stared at me with wide eyes.“I-I just-” she stuttered and my eyes squinted as I knew she wanted to lie.“I sent for her alpha, I told you I was interested in her.” Gary appeared behind her and I looked from him to her, noting the sigh of relief that flooded her face.“Why did you lie to the border officers I was aware.” I probbed and her eyes widened in panic.“I thought they wouldn't let me leave if I hadn't,” she muttered as her cheeks slowly turned pink as she looked away from me in embarrassment.“How long have you been standing outside my door, Silas? One would think you were trying to eavesdrop,” Gary commented and I noticed the mocking glint that he had in his eyes.“I think I'll just return to the pack,” Scarlett muttered as she ducked past me and her vanilla scent invaded my nostrils and my wolf stirred within me.“Come in,” Gary called out to me dragging me out of my thoughts and I turned to stare at

Chapter 35Scarlett's pov“I didn't mean to make him so upset,” I told Nora as we sat on my bed and as I stared at the book in front of me I felt no sense of accomplishment although I knew this was the first real step in the right direction. Rather I was filled with a deep sadness and a void within my chest as I remembered Silas’ expression just before he turned his back to me.“It's not your fault although you really should have stayed out of the library,” Nora replied as she stared at me pointedly and I looked away guiltily.“I'm sorry, I have no excuse. It's just that I got bored after I returned from the infirmary and something in this library kept calling to me.” I revealed and Nora merely stared at me silently.“I've always loved books and at first when you told me about the library I tried my best to stay away but I just couldn't. There's something about reading, it just transports me into another universe,” I explained and Nora stared at me with an unreadable expression on he

Chapter 37Scarlett's pov"Did you go back to the garden?" Nora asked once I stepped into my room and I stared at her sprawled form on my bed."What?" I asked confused and she gestured towards the rose in my hand."Oh, this? No, Asher gave it to me." I informed her and her eyes narrowed as she shot up from the bed and approached me."Asher gave you a rose?" She asked, her brows crunched in confusion and I nodded wordlessly."Why?" She probbed and I shrugged."He was just trying to be nice I guess," I muttered as I walked past Nora and dropped the rose on the side table beside my bed."He also asked me out to dinner," I informed her and her eyes widened."That little punk," she swore under her breath before she made her way towards the door."I'll be right back." She called out to me before she shut the door behind her and I waited a few seconds, making sure she wasn't coming back before I crunched low and retrieved the book I had hidden under my bed.I stared at the dusty cover of the

Chapter 39Scarlett's povI could feel Silas' stare burning the side of my head but I didn't dare turn to him as my heart hammered against my ribcage. Everything within me was aware of his presence mere feet away from me and I barely heard Nora's compliments as she fussed over me.I couldn't help but wonder why I had agreed to the stupid date in the first place when everything within me wanted to run back into my room, change into some comfortable clothes, and find a way to sneak the book back into the library and get another."Wow," a voice sounded behind us and Nora moved away to reveal Asher who was staring at me with a lopsided grin."Asher," I called out to him as he approached me and I let out a sigh of relief as he was also immaculately dressed in a tux and suddenly I no longer felt overdressed."You look divine," he complimented as he took my hand and dropped a gentle kiss on my wrist."Thank you," I muttered as my cheeks heated at the gesture."I have to admit, you two do mak
