But even then, with the little hope I have in my heart knowing the goodness within you and your mate, I just wish to be forgiven for my sins. And I'll walk away from your lives. Forever. I'll never come back. I promise.” “Why? Why now?” I gulped looking at Scarlet, trying hard to maintain my emotions. She knew I was asking about why she decided to come clear about everything now. Betrayal, regret, anger— everything hit me like a thunderstorm.

As if remembering something, she pursed her lips and asked, "Sienna, do the scars on your arms still hurt?" I shook my head silently. She seemed to have an epiphany and released her tight grip on my hand. With a faint smile, she let herself fall into the abyss. My dad and Erin worked together to pull me back up. As I looked down into the bottomless chasm, I knew my mom was definitely dead. With the success of the heart transplant surgery, I finally gained a healthy body.

The question rang in my mind the moment I returned to my room, the lingering thought of Colt leaving me as I tucked my diary carefully back into its box. I dropped the scarlet letter on the bed, still contemplating whether it was safe to open or not.

“Scarlet you know that they would have never agreed to that. The only reason why father agreed to selling me to Caleb was because he was paying a lot of money, and I am sure that he was hoping it would lead to farther trading with the pack. I was never mad about you leaving with Dorian. I had hoped that you were living a fairy tale love story.” “It was pretty great at first. Dorian was attentive, and sweet. He always had a quick temper, but he used to work it out on the training field.” Scarlet pauses for a moment with a wistful look in her eye. “He changed after he became Alpha.

Chapter 19 Scarlett's POV I wasn't scared anymore. I was angry. Whatever Christian was hiding wasn’t ordinary. And I was done waiting for answers. I hurried past Clementina, my feet moving so fast I felt I was flying. Heat rushed to my face and with each step I was taking deep breaths, completely ignoring the elderly woman calling out to me from behind. I pushed the door of every room in the west wing until I found his bedroom door and shoved it hard enough that it banged against the wall.

There’s a note too. “It’s okay to cry,” the note says. Scarlett reads the note. Her confusion is slowly replaced with a sense of gratitude. Someone may have witnessed the scene but the person was kind enough to sympathize with her. For a moment, Scarlett is glad that she isn’t alone. She wipes her tears and clutches the handkerchief close. Her life may be a nightmare but she’ll prevail. That day, Scarlett also realized one thing. The slap has woken her up. She no longer holds the naive thought that she can change Hector. The man is beyond redemption and nothing he can do will save their marriage. Any feelings she had were wiped out in seconds.

“I just don’t like people touching what’s mine.” Dex’s eyes flashed with triumph. He leaned across the table until their lips were barely a breath away. “Then maybe you should mark what’s yours more clearly,” he whispered. “Because right now.… I’m tempted to bend you over this table and remind you exactly who you belong to.” Elian’s breath hitched. His bandaged fingers curled into fists on the table as memories of the previous day flooded his head like a hurricane, almost destroying the little sanity he had left. He glared at the culprit who was the reason for the thoughts roaming in his head.

The luxurious condo, once a symbol of our love, now resembled a tomb for our broken promises. The gentle radiance of the light only added to the haunting atmosphere, reflecting the devastating truth that was unfolding before me.

Time seemed to slow down as I processed the heart-wrenching scene before me. Standing in the doorway, bathed in harsh light, I couldn't look away from the betrayal unfolding in front of me.
