Scarlett's POVAmanda's glare could have burned a hole through my skin, but I met it without flinching."Why?" she demanded, her voice a mix of outrage and disbelief. "Why in the Goddess's name would you suggest this kind of thing?! Is this your revenge? By getting in my way, huh?!"I tilted my head slightly, letting a calm smile tug at the corners of my lips. "You're being delusional. The world doesn't revolve around you. I did it because I believe in potential, Amanda."She scoffed. "Potential? From them? You must be blind and sick in the head. Better for you to get checked."Kathleen sneered and helped up the Omega who had been yelled at. "Sick? Blind? You're the one who's sick and blind! I've never met someone as delusional as you—well, aside from that mistress of Alexander."Amanda's nostrils flared and she glared at Kathleen. "You think you can scold me just because you are Alpha Lucien's sister, huh?!"Kathleen rolled her eyes at her. "Even if I wasn't, I'd still scold you. You

Scarlett's POVThe silence on the line grew heavier each time I hit redial. I stood in the corner of the study, phone pressed against my ear, listening to the hollow ringing. No answer. Again.I lowered my phone, staring at the darkened screen as if it might give me an explanation if I glared hard enough. This was new to me. Normally, he would answer right away if I called, since I wouldn't contact him unless I needed his help.Did something happen on his end? I couldn't help but feel worried.After all, he wasn't the type to ignore calls without a reason.I dialed again. One ring. Two. Three. Still nothing. I sighed, exhaling slowly through my nose and resisted the temptation to throw my phone onto the desk."Still nothing?" a voice asked from the doorway.Lucien.None other than him. Who else would come to this room if it wasn't him or Kathleen?I looked up at him as his frame filled the entrance like a living shadow, a bundle of parchment envelopes tucked under his arm—it seemed he

Scarlett's POVNight was heavy, tight against the windows. It didn't come gently when sleep finally claimed me.I found myself standing in the council hall. The domed ceilings arched overhead, engulfed in darkness. The air was hot, laden with speech—muffled, garbled, hollow voices, half-uttering things I could not quite understand. Each time I tried to concentrate, the voices melted away, leaving only the uncomfortable sense that they referred to me.What the hell? A nightmare?I tried to wake up when I saw a familiar face appear before me. His gaze was locked on mine.Alexander.He stood apart, but the space between us felt like a fault line."Alexander? What are you doing?" I tried to speak to him, but I couldn't even hear my own voice.I tried to move, but I realized I couldn't. It felt as if my feet were rooted to the marble floor.Fuck. I want to wake up. This isn't even funny anymore. I wanted to move my body, to pinch myself awake, but I couldn't.I was stuck, rooted in place.

Scarlett's POV"Are you okay? He didn't do anything to you, right? Just say so and I'll beat him up for you!" she said angrily, rolling up her sleeves.Before she could walk toward where Alexander had exited, I grabbed her wrist to hold her back. "It's fine now. He's already gone."She huffed. "What did he say to you? He didn't gaslight you, right?! That scum is good at coaxing women!"I chuckled and patted her head. "It's fine now. He didn't gaslight me or anything—he tried to say that he missed me and stuff, but I know what he actually missed is the Scarlett he could cage at his will, who would follow every word he said, and who would always say yes to anything he asked. Basically, what he missed is that naive and pitiful woman who longed for love and a home after watching her parents die in front of her."Kathleen's eyes reddened and she immediately hugged me tightly, patting my back. "You have a home now. You always have me and Lucien supporting you. Besides, who knows, you and Lu

Scarlett's POVWhen I arrived back at the packhouse, the sun was sinking, tinting the corridors amber. My eyes happened to fall on Lucien, who was leaning against the wall with his arms crossed, his gaze locked onto mine."You left without guards," he said in a calm tone, but his eyes narrowed."I went to inspect the borders," I replied, keeping my tone deliberately even."Tell me I'm wrong to think you met someone today."I met his gaze. "You're wrong." The lie tasted strange, but I held it.He looked at me and nodded with a dark expression. "Okay. I'll act like I don't know anything about it."Before I could respond or feel guilty that I lied, even though he already knew, Faye approached, her smile as polished as glass—damn, she wasn't back to her pack yet?"Alpha Kade sends his regards," she said brightly. "And he's very interested in that little meeting you had outside the borders."Lucien's gaze sharpened, shifting between me and her."What meeting?" His voice was dangerously cal
