Scarlett**FOUR YEARS AFTER…. “I would kill, honestly… anything for some peace and quiet, and less danger right now" I slap Liam's arm and he chuckles. "Just joking…" He says through his teeth as he picks up the toys from the floor and turns off the TV. The moment the TV went off, our babies went off with their cries, turning red. I glance at Liam and let out a sigh.. "This is sure going to be one long day" _ The doorbell goes off and I find myself running down the stairs to get the door. I open the door and Ginny's grin makes me smile. "Now where's my favorite Twin?" She shakes the wrapped present in her hand. I notice Michael behind her, holding a really huge wrapped gift. "They're upstairs, Liam's trying to put Rick in his outfit" I say and Ginny walks inside. "Hey Michael…" I say, the moment he steps in. "I don't mean to pry but that's a teddy bear… right" I touch the wrapped present, and feeling its softness, I breathe out a sigh of relief.. Michael smirks, "Ginn

With Ginny and Hannah now inside the living room, enjoying a warm cup of coffee, and giggling to themselves. I get a plate of cookies ready for them, and when I get back to them, they simply ignore my cookies and Ginny waves her hand. "Go on now… You go first" She says and Hannah nods In agreement. "Why me? We yelled guess what at the door together, and we did not ride a three almost four hours long ass ride to come here and just simply spill it" Ginny scoff and I laugh. "How's Liam by the way…?" Hannah asks. "Yeah, forgot to ask about him," Ginny adds. "He's in a therapy session, he'll be back soon, he's good" I smile. "Good, now spill the tea… we're getting impatient" Ginny urges me. I laugh again, but I go on to tell them about a new product that's going to be made after me, and their reaction just made me feel brand new. "Girl! That's big news" Ginny covers her mouth with her hand. My eyes immediately catch the shiny thing around her middle finger and I grab her hand.

The day is expectedly bright and sunny, and deadly hot. I Decided to sunbathe minutes ago and can already feel my skin tearing apart. I take the shades off my eyes and turn to the pool In front of me.. I don't even know how to swim. How embarrassing can my life get? I get on my feet and walk slowly to the edge of the pool where I take a seat and dip just my legs into the cold water, and it feels nice already. Liam isn't home and my life feels like it's falling apart. He's currently with his walking therapist or whatever they call him, and I feel like I'm having the worst day ever. It's been two days since I had that weird sex dream about Liam… Not weird per say, cause I really enjoyed it honestly, and telling him about it just made us both feel like hell. It was a mistake I shouldn't have went for, cause he just laid there, listening to me talk about fuckin him and I went on to pour out my kinky desire, knowing that if he tries to bang me. He might break more than just his bone

Scarlett "It won't stop raining" I sigh walking away from the window and to the bed where Liam is busy with his phone. "It's not like you're going to do anything with the rain, take a seat" He looks away from his phone and gently taps on the bed for me to come seat. "I don't really enjoy rainy days in the middle of summer, it's just 12pm and yet feels like 12am" I shudder, taking a seat beside him. He wraps me like an infant and gives his attention back to his phone."You're going to hold me and not even look at me?" I scoff, pulling the knee length warm socks to give my legs a proper coverage. He glances at me and gives me one of those smile of his, that excited my every being. He gently drops his phone and steadies his wrapped hand around my waist. "Okay now, careful," I scoff referring to my- our babies and he laughs."I'll be careful… The most careful" He leans down and starts to kiss me gently. His body completely buried mine. Goodness, I've missed this heavenly fe

It's been three weeks since Anne kidnapped me. I don't think I've ever used or thought of the word 'kidnapped' until I started living with Liam. And he started it all this. Liam's better and has been getting some type of therapy Halle recommended, for walking properly. He still uses crutches around the house though, but I am glad his health and everything that that fine body of his has are improving greatly. I could say I no longer need hiding but still stay with Liam in his father's home. Anne has been put to bar after her dirty atrocities were leaked. And hell it was a lot. The night after she kidnapped me. For the freaking second time. Everyone watching the news station at that moment went wild when the news lady started to reveal all her crimes and I don't know who gave them that information but Anne isn't going to be coming out of jail for a very long time. It was said she was partners with a drug dealer who also owned an underground brothel where they make

I make my way towards Liam, a rigid smile on my face. He doesn't look happy, but I can tell the relief he's feeling just by staring at me. I walk up to him and fall to his body like he's not covered in cast. My hands wrap around his neck and I start to cry like a child. He wraps me with his only movable hand and buries his head in my neck. God I miss him so much. Not just miss him because I was kidnapped by his crazy aunt. I missed him, everything about him and mostly his touches and what his face feels like, buried in my neck. I let go of him when I feel my weight becoming too heavy for him. I straighten my posture as I wipe my tears, that is getting frozen already. Summer nights are always the coldest. "Why did you come out… it's too cold." I say, picking up the blanket that had fallen from me while giving Liam a hug. "I couldn't just sit still and watch some weird woman do something to my wife." He scoffs. His wife… I sniff, "But still, you've not recovered fully

Star:“Ouch!” I shriek from the pain as a corset forcefully snatches my waist.“Sorry, His highness likes pretty all-rounder, pretty little things. We need to make you look as nice as possible."A preppy voice snaps me out of my trance, and I take in my reflection from the mirror in front of me.Alpha Klein.Pretty little things…Right. I’m getting married.For a moment, I forgot who I was and my deal with the world.It’s been two days since Alpha Ark willingly handed me to the nation’s most vile beast as a bride. And my mind still hasn’t tried to sum up the event that has truly happened.Is this what betrayal feels like? Or this is an entire new feeling.I can hear myself screaming on the inside, but outside, I am as bland as I can ever be.My body, mind, and soul feel weird, and it feels like I am not myself.For the past two days, being held in this castle has put my body on something strange, like the strange thing that happened to me the night of the attack, like something is hol

Star:A new bride?What the hell.I watch one of Alpha Klein’s men leave the room, and the other comes for me, grabbing my bicep and closing his thick palms with it.I turn to Alpha Ark and Luna Moria at light speed.“What is going on? Alpha Ark, what is happening?” My voice is trembling really badly.Alpha Ark looks away.They’re both not replying.“What is happening?” I yell, almost crying.Alpha Klein gives the man holding me a look, and the man nods in return before leaving the room. You’d know they just shared something through the mind link.Something I wish for too.The moment Alpha Klein leaves the room, Moria walks up to me.“You should be glad we’re doing this,” she says.“What?” I am puzzled.“We’re only doing this for the safety of our pack; the alpha king helped us greatly, once, and it is only right we pay him back. Our lives will only be safe if we pay back and are the alpha king’s Ally.”“And how and why am I the solution to this? Being the monomous, ruthless alpha bri

Star:I see everyone running around to take shelter, some in their wolf form and some in their human form, with and without a broken limb, still trying to get out of the place.I pick up my pace and start to run towards the exit too.Just when we are close to the exit, everyone starts to run back to where they are coming from, and I change my direction too.Running close to a boy in his wolf form, the heavy diamond chandelier hanging from the roof suddenly comes falling and crushing hard on his head, poorly taking me out.The scene makes my leg weaken, and I fall to my knees,screaming at his bleeding head.There hasn’t been an attack in ages, this is my first experience and it’s frightening. The Redmoon pack doesn’t make enemies, so who could it be?“Everyone! Move towards the south; it is an attack. Find protection at all costs."My attention is suddenly taken by Beta Herold, Alpha Ark’s right hand and best friend, who starts to scream against the chaos, pointing towards the south and

-star My hand falls to my side as I still try to breathe in through my nose. But it’s not working.I want to scream to create awareness so the other werewolves nearby can hear me and help me, but my voice seems like it’s been hijacked.I start to feel someone’s presence behind me, someone with an aura very dark and intimidating, and it feels like the person is trying to cover me up with a cloak.Somehow I manage to snap my head around to see whoever it is, but surprisingly, there is no one behind me, just the trees in the woods at a far distance.I immediately start to feel the presence again in front of me.I turn, but there’s no one.I start to panic, looking for a way to breathe as I make my way towards the hall where the gala is being held and end this hotness and pain in my body when everything just stops.The pain, the panic, the heat Everything simultaneously stops, and I find myself breathing again.Like a lost girl, I look around, trying to figure out what the hell just happ

Star-I hate my life.I really do. It’s like a never-ending loop with the same miserable, boring life going on and on and on.“Star, which dress do you think looks better on me? The blue or black one?”Her preppy voice pulls me out of my trance and I slowly raise my head towards Blythe in an attempt to give her a response, but she promptly cuts me off."Your opinion doesn’t matter, though; don’t bother."Look at her go.I keep my mouth shut and carry on cleaning up the mess that she made earlier on her polished concrete floor.Her room is completely disorganised, and there are smudges of nail polish on numerous items, including the floor, gowns, and makeup. But no worries; Star will save the day like she always does.“What the hell am I going to wear?” Blythe complains and stomps her feet in front of her wardrobe like a toddler.Ugh, she makes me sick.There’s a pair-ridden gala tonight, and no werewolf wants to shut up about it. A gala that Alpha Ark and Alpha Ron of the Bluemoon ar

—JOANNE- I looked at Hardy and the expression he had on his face, was so overwhelming, I had to ask“what’s wrong?I knew he wouldn’t tell me because he practically never tells me anything, but he has been really nice to me dad, I had this feeling that he was going to tell me.“nothing we should go home”Right. Had my hopes up for nothing. But the way He said home drew this sense of security that embraced my spirit.I knew he wouldn’t wouldn’t tell me no matter how much I persists, so I just let the matter immediately.Even though I had seen his phone screen and saw that Theo was the one who called I knew something was up, but I only hope to have something good. I was exhausted beyond exhausted to be specific.The only thing I wanted to do was lie, my head and close my eyes I haven’t slept properly, but any time I close my eyes all I saw was the Rope beside me waiting to be wrapped around my neck.It’s made me she had really badly anytime. I thought about it.I ignored the ladies

—HARDY CONTD. The detective stepped out of the interrogation room and asked if we grabbed anything.Joanne had to explain her first to her last meeting with this Ophelia girl which caused everyone to be in total dismay.“Wait a second, so she warned you about the ladies when she was the mastermind behind all these?” Detective Alex asked.“Yeah” Joanne nodded, looking frightened.“But she works for Anne—“Anne shaw? Age 26. Married to Asher Black?” Alex interrupted.“Yeah” Joanne nodded.“Well she and the other ladies are asleep now, they drank so much they all passed out. But don’t worry, the moment they’re awake they’ll be interrogated.” Alex said to be assuring but Joanne didn’t bulge.So he continued to put her mind at ease.“Ophelia is being tracked. Every means of transport registry has been nicked with cops, she won’t escape. We’ll understand who she works for”Joanne nodded and turned to me.Her gaze were soft but yet I didn’t know what it was demanding.“What’s wrong, I aske

-HARDYI pulled Joanne in a tight embrace, making sure I buried the entirety of her body in mine, she looked so scared. I need to eat every bloody corners of my heart. How much does a bust out I hadn’t planned this world I kept being played. I have sent her to congratulatory party to lure the fuckinh murder. Not get abducted.I watched the police handcuff the man that taken Joanne away, the bastard thoughts just because today was the stupid parade day didn’t mean in I’d seat and watch pave the way for the same history.The man now handed to the police, Looked vain. He was echoing pleads, and seen it wasn’t his intention for the attempted murder, that someone has sent him. I breathe in and out to see a relief because he look like such an easy targets. Unlike Lelani, who is currently being watched under my men’s custody, and wouldn’t darn lead us to the culprit.I knew this man would be an easy one. Definitely, I shouldn’t touch my eggs before they hatch, but I knew what am I got was t

—JOANNE~I opened my eyes to meet nothing but complete darkness. But my body was moving. I tried to breathe out a yielding sigh only to realize my mouth has been shut with a rough cloth.I let out a muffle scream and tried to seat up.My hands were tied in front of me but thankfully my legs were free.I scuttled before sitting up and realizing I was in a black van.I let out muffled screams that didn’t even stretch at any distant The driver driving the van slightly turned to me and nodded.“You’re awake.“Who the fuck are you” my scream came out muffled but he understood me well and replied me quietly.“Go back to sleep.” I kicked his chair and he scoffed.“A fierce one aren’t we?” I wanted to scream but I couldn’t, instead I started to cry.My eyes started to blink rapidly when I saw the thick ropes sitting beside me.No!History was indeed repeating itself.“Where are you taking me!” My scream loosened the cloth around my mouth a bit and the man driving sighed.“Just shut the fuc

-JOANNE—I was gasping for breath as Anne’s grip tightened around my neck, suffocating me. She was a tornado, twisting me around and smashing me into the table like a ragdoll. Adrenaline kicked in, and I fought back with everything I had. My fingers clawed at her hair and pushed against her slim frame, trying to gain any kind of advantage. But her strength was superhuman, and her nails dug into my neck like talons.I had to think fast.Desperation set in. I lunged at her shirt, gripping it tightly as if my life depended on it—and it did. I pulled hard, forcing her slender form to stumble forward. It was a desperate gamble, a Hail Mary pass to even the odds. I might’ve been down, but I wasn’t out. Not yet. My heart was racing, my muscles screaming, but I wasn’t about to let Anne win. I wasn’t about to let her take everything from me.I finally got the upper hand at things, and as I tried to hit her, Ruby came in full charge at me, pushing me to hit my head on the brick wall and causi

-JOANNE— Two days before my celebratory party. Theodore and I are seated with Hardy in one of the mansion’s empty rooms, talking about the twentieth.For some reasons. I felt enlightenment.Because Hardy was always fond of disdaining me whenever it came to sharing his plans. He would only let Theodore in on it, but tonight he was making me part of it.And it made sense because I was aware of it all.We were trying to fix the crazy puzzle together and rearrange ours. Trinity had walked in and out of the room every now and then, getting us water and all sorts of food.We’ve spent a good six hours in the room trying to come up with different alternatives and routes to take if plans A or B don’t align and manage to collide.We’ve managed to come to the conclusion that Lisa’s killer could be anyone. But the source we needed to pick from was from the White Ale-o house. Hardy looked unfazed, mentioning Lisa’s name a few times, and I tried to fight the urge to scream the truth out lou
