All Chapters of The Reluctant Alpha and His Sassy Queen: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

“We should teach her a lesson, Scarlet,” Mira said, her voice low, venom dripping from each syllable.Scarlet smirked, leaning back against her bedframe. “You’ve barely healed, and you’re already plotting revenge? That’s my girl.”“I mean it,” Mira hissed. “That bitch Liora thinks she can mess with us? We’ll make her choke on her own pride.”Scarlet laughed, waving it off. “Relax. She’s not worth the energy. I’m just happy you’re back, Mira.”Mira blinked, her expression softening for the first time. “You missed me?”“Like hell I did,” Scarlet said sarcastically, but her tone cracked. “The room was too damn quiet without you.”Mira chuckled ... that wicked, carefree sound Scarlet had missed so much. But then something strange happened. The bruises that painted Mira’s skin ... the ones that looked deep, fresh, painful ... began to fade. One by one, the angry welts melted away, leaving her skin smooth and flawless.Scarlet’s smile faltered. “What the fuck…”Mira looked down at her arms,

⚠️ THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS EXPLICIT AND ADULT CONTENTS. Grey leaned against the wall nearby, watching her with a smirk. She knew that look. Knew exactly what he wanted.He pushed off the wall and closed the distance in two strides. "Done pretending you're too good for this?" His voice was low, rough with intent.Scarlet lifted her chin, but her bravado was thin. The vodka burned in her veins, blurring the edges of her judgment. "Fuck you."Grey laughed, gripping her wrist hard enough to bruise. "Just suck my dick." He dragged her into the nearest empty room...somebody’s half-cleaned bedroom, the sheets still rumpled from the last hookup. She stumbled as he shoved her against the wall, his body pinning hers."You asked for this," he growled, sliding a hand between her thighs. She gasped as his fingers pressed against the damp fabric of her panties. "Look at you...soaked already. Pathetic."Scarlet shuddered, hating how her hips arched into his touch. She wanted to hate him But her body

“Just don’t give us cold shoulders. You helped Mira out and we will make sure to help you.” Scarlet said, voice low ... defeated but still determined ... before Grey walked away from the Blackwood University gates and hopped into his black vehicle like he couldn’t escape fast enough.He didn’t even look back.Scarlet stood there like a fucking statue.Some students passing by saw it and then laughed ... petty, bitter little laughs ... gossip spreading like wildfire.“See?” one girl whispered to her friend, loud enough for Scarlet to still hear, “she’s the reason Mr Handsome Grey is suspended. Cheap slut.”Another dude scoffed, “I don’t know why he even looked at her.”Scarlet clenched her fist but didn’t say a word. Because she knew if she opened her mouth she might fucking bite someone’s throat out. Literally. Her Wolf was already clawing against her skull, snarling, pacing, tense.Ignore them, her Wolf hissed, we have bigger problems.A mindlink suddenly rang through the hallways ..

Scarlet didn’t even look up when she heard the heavy footstep enter the library...until Mira’s fingers suddenly tightened on the edge of the table as if she saw a ghost.Alpha Ronan.He was pacing the romance aisle like a wolf that couldn’t find its prey for too long. Scarlet’s throat tightened. Mira froze like prey caught in headlights. Silence devoured the entire table between them. No one dared breathe. Ronan’s aura alone made the smallest chains of power wrap around the oxygen in the room. People actually shifted their chairs away…as if moving a few centimeters back would save their throats.Then his eyes locked on Scarlet.Not Mira.Scarlet.“Fuck.” Scarlet blinked once. Of course he was here for her.He didn’t waste a single second. He walked directly to her, reached down, wrapped his fingers around her wrist and yanked...trying to pull her out of the seat like she was just another little toy he owned.Scarlet didn’t fucking budge.She stayed still. Chin up. Eyes locked into his

The way he shushed Liora… the way his palm sliced the air like she was an insect that needed to shut the fuck up… it made Liora’s eyes instantly water. She clutched her stomach like she’d been stabbed and dropped to the floor, gasping, choking on fake pain, shaking like she might collapse into death right there. She was dramatic as fuck ... she knew exactly how to weaponize her weakness. She knew Ronan’s soft spot: his fucking hero complex.Scarlet stood there, frozen for a fraction of a second.Then Alpha Ronan’s shock twisted instantly into panic.“Alaric!” he mind-linked so sharply the air cracked. Beta Alaric appeared like a shadow behind him, eyes wide, scanning Liora’s pale body spastically convulsing.“Health Department. Now.” Ronan’s voice was a razor.Scarlet tried to walk away ... she didn’t want to be part of this bullshit circus ... but Ronan grabbed her wrist in iron claws. His fingers dug in like her bones should snap.“You go nowhere,” he murmured with venom, voice low
