Scarlett POVI sighed and kept back the cup, before I walked away from the table and headed to where the maid had kept my back.I pulled it open and brought out my work book, a plain white paper, a pen and a laptop.I set them on the table, before closing up my bag and returning it to where I had taken it from.I hurried into the bathroom to have my bath so I could continue from where I stopped in the office.Sleep tends to depress me in the morning more than it does at night, so I prefer doing my work at night, so I could sleep in the office with peace of mind, knowing that my work has already been done.I switched off the lights in the room, and switched on the table lamp light, before I hurried into my bathroom to have a quick bath.I wore my panties in the bathroom, and walked into my room in a white towel tied wrapped around my hair and body.I pulled out a chair and sat down, before I started working."What am I supposed to put here? Ummm, what was that thing again? I saw it som
Scarlett POVI picked up the first one which he had written a number one on so I wouldn't know that it was the starting, and I carefully went through everything.I picked up the second one and went through it, picked up the third one and did the same, until I went through five papers he had written in.When I finished, my mouth was hanging open as I placed down the papers, staring at him with wide eyes."Is that how to say thank you?" He suddenly asked, after observing the shocked expression on my face."Thank you, but how did you do this correctly?""How sure are you that I got it correctly?" He questioned me back, and my brows creased in thoughts."I just know. I went through what you did just now, and it's appropriate.""It seems you're not just a flimsy, silly omega to know I got it correctly after going through everything for only ten seconds. I won't be surprised to know if you're more intelligent than I am," he said, and my face turned crimson red."Are you teasing me?" I quest
Scarlett POVAfter I closed from work by five, I took a cab to my mate's house, but upon receiving his home, I couldn't understand what was happening.Cops and ambulances we're all over, with some group of people gathered around, and men in black outfits seated on the porch with a moody expression on their faces.I knew the men in blacks, they were my mate's bodyguards.I quietly stepped out of the cab and paid the driver, before it drove off.I quietly observed what was going on in my mates house which was a five story building, before I began approaching.When they young man dressed in black saw me, they stood up and approached me."Jace, where's Alex? What's happening here?" I asked, fear etched on my face as I stared at each and every one of their faces. The scene happening just some distance away from us looked as though someone has died.I couldn't tell how I felt right now, but I knew that Alex wasn't okay, I knew that something has happened to Alex."B.. Boss is inside," Jace
Scarlett POV"Are you deaf or are you just dumb!!? Stop the fucking car!!" I yelled, but he kept driving."I said stop the car!!" I yelled at him again, glancing at the side to see his face since I was seated in the passenger's seat.He had a black sunshade glass in, and a sweet in his mouth, and he continued driving."Sir, I said I'm dropping!" I said with a sore voice, still sniffing, but just as I tried to touch him, he suddenly brought out a silver gun, which made me freeze to my chair."Scarlett, Scarlett, can you hear me? What's happening?" I heard Jayden's worried voice from the speaker of my phone."He has a gun, he doesn't want to stop the car, he's taking me to where I don't know," I whispered, too frightened to speak out loud anymore.Wasn't this ironic? I was yelling some moments ago, but now I couldn't even talk without whispering."Shit! Do you know where you are?""I don't know.""Any sign boards around?""There's a boldly written sign board we just passed," I was sayin
Scarlett POV I slowly turned behind me, but screamed in fear when I saw a masked man standing behind me.He immediately hit my head with the gun, and I immediately stopped screaming and was wincing in pain.I tried crawling away, my eyes locked with his, while he was communicating with someone."Kill her!" I heard a female voice say, and more came and surrounded me."Please… no," I pleaded, trying to crawl away.I stood up and began running away, but the next thing I heard was a series of gunshots, and over thirty if I wasn't mistaken were shot at me.I was already on the floor, my body was paralyzed, and I could see my blood flowing on the floor like a river.It was only my eyes that were open, and I could see blurrily.A loud angry growl was what I heard, and it was followed by another round of gunshots.This time it wasn't at me, so I guess it was at someone.I just realised that someone was covering me from the bullets, while I was still hearing the sounds, until a very strong bl
Scarlett POVIt injured him, but he remained seated on the couch, staring at the floor without muttering a single word.I threw the remaining part of the bucket in my hand on him, and began searching for anything I would use to hit him."You're a terrible monster!" I yelled, and began throwing the cushions on him.I threw all the cushions on the couch on him, before I proceeded to throw the cushions on his bed on him.I was breathing hard when I finished, but he still remained seated on the couch without doing anything."You're definitely going to kill me today, because if you don't, then I will kill you. You don't deserve to live," I said angrily, my cold eyes watching him, before I stumped away from him.I began destroying everything my hands could reach in his room, not minding how expensive they are.I pulled down his television from where it was hanging, and let it fall to the floor.The screen cracked immediately and landed on the floor with a thud, and I proceeded to destroy th
Scarlett POV I was thrown away from where I was standing in front of Ryan, and was now a distance away from him.I knew my spinal cord had been damaged, and the child in my stomach had twisted really bad, to a very bad position, and I felt the air knocked out of my throat.I couldn't do anything, I couldn't move a muscle, my stomach hooked in a scary position.I remained seated on the floor, staring at Ryan's back which was facing me, and I managed to make a weak whimper.I wasn't even whimpering, I couldn't even whimper, I was only making muffled sounds like a badly wounded introvert cat.He glanced back at me, but seeing the condition I was in, unable to stand up, he rushed towards me.He tried raising me to my feet, but I cried out in pain, my legs feeling like rubber.He was scared, I could see it in his eyes, this is the first time I've seen him this scared, and it made me wonder how bad my situation was.He didn't know where to touch and raise me up, because I felt pain anywher
Ryan POVAfter Scarlett asked if the reason I was caring wasn't because of my child, I heard her question clearly, but chose to remain silent.I knew the answer to her question, but I had to be cautious with what I said. This lady was dying in my arms, and I didn't know what to do.The truth was that I've always cared about Scarlett.Her body went numb in my arms immediately she finished talking, and she passed out.I placed my head on her chest, checking if she was still breathing, and relief washed over me when I heard her faint heartbeat."I love you, I've always loved you, but failed to realise it. I've realised it now, that's the more reason you need to stay, I want both of you. You've struggled to accommodate him inside you, so why now? I know I hurt you, but the feelings were strange at that time," I cried, holding her protectively. I refused to give too much thought about what I was doing. I was crying over a she-wolf, but this she-wolf is the mother of my child, if anything h
