Scarlett POV"You're obviously not okay, Scarlett, tell me what happened. Just tell me everything, and I'll deal with whoever hurt you," he said angrily, and thoughts were racing in my mind. I really did want him to beat Ryan, because Ryan has hurt me badly every since we crossed paths, and he was still hurting me."It's Ryan, Jayden. Ryan is a psychopath, what did you expect when you left me with him? He snaps at me even when I try to care for him, I don't know what to do anymore, Jayden. I tried to tolerate because I have no option, but I can't take it anymore. I.. I don't know if you understand what I'm trying to say, but I want to go back to my parents, I.. I don't like it here, I want to go back to my dad, my step mom should have left by now, I just want to go back to my pack," I cried, staring down blurrily at my hand which I was fiddling with on my thighs.Silence was what took over, only the sound of my sobs could be heard, but Jayden's voice broke the silence as he asked, "Wh
Scarlett POV"It's impossible to live with you without telling you to shut up. You'll pack into another apartment with Jayden once he's back. He should be capable of taking care of you and protecting you at the same time." After he ended what he was saying, the car came to an abrupt halt."Do you know how to drive?" He suddenly asked without turning to me. I wasn't surprised by his question, because I knew driving in this state was difficult for him."It's been a while since I drove a car–" I began saying, but heard him wince. This is the first time he's making a sound of someone in pain."Do you have a license?" He asked further, and I nodded."When last did you drive?""Twenty.""Come over," he said, and immediately, the back side of the seat beside the driver seat he was seated in disappeared, and I was able to cross over.He pulled the door open and went down from the car, and closed the door, while I sat in his position.I noticed the back of his dress was soaked with blood, but
Scarlett POV When I turned, I saw the men climbing down the stairs with an elegant blue beautiful cake."Oh my god," I exclaimed, my hands covering my mouth when the cake was placed on a table in front of me."Did you all make this?" I asked, but Ryan's uncle shook his head."We bought it, and the price is mind blowing," he whispered into my ears, and I chuckled."Please go ahead and cut the cake. We've been starving ever since we heard you've woken up, so we can help you eat enough of it," one of them announced, and we all bursted into laughter."That's true," another one supported, and the rest nodded.The cake was made to look like heaps of dollars, and just by looking at it, anyone could tell it wasn't just an ordinary cake.A knife looking like a dagger was handed to me, and I collected it, before cutting the cake.I also had to pop the champagne, but before I did that, I noticed Jayden's brother walked back into the sitting room with a man, before he joined us, while the man hea
Scarlett POV"There's no need to ask me why I chose to suffer for you, because the truth is, it's just nature. Even a random stranger would do that, it's just an instinct in action. Seeing an acid poured in your direction, I couldn't let it touch any part of your body since it'll take you eternity to heal from that. And your beautiful face, your beautiful belly," he paused, and sighed, before continuing, "yours would have been the worst, because it would have ruined your beautiful body. I'll find out who he is, he won't get away with what he began. Anyway, this hurts as hell," he said, but made a muffled noise as he try adjusting his body on this bed. I could tell he was feeling discomfort.Concerning what he said, I couldn't tell if it was true. I don't think any stranger would risk their life for a beautiful lady. I didn't know what to say, I could only listen to what he was saying.He remained quiet without saying anything as he silently stared at the ceiling, while I gently stroked
Scarlett POVHe began stroking my hair, before he leaned down and kissed my neck.I laughed and pulled away his face. It was very tinklish.A smile which didn't reach his eyes appread on his lips, before he kissed my lips."Do you have any sibling?" He asked when he pulled away from the kiss, and I shook my head."I really don't have a sibling, but Owen claimed to be my brother," I answered, and a frown settled on his face."Who is Owen?""He's Gianna's son, my step brother," he answered, and the frown on his face disappeared. I felt sad for Owen anyway, Ryan had ended his life like he was a piece of shit. Despite I felt pity towards him, he still deserved it, he was wicked."Can't you remember having any younger or elder sister? Maybe someone the same age as you, and looks like you?" He asked, and I wondered why he was asking.I squinted my eyes in thoughts, given by his serious looks, I knew he was interested in my response."I never had a sibling, I don't have a twin either, it has
Scarlett POV I found myself on Ryan's bed when I woke up. It was morning, and sunlights were filtering into the room.I yawned and rolled on the bed, enjoying the wide space of the bed, but I felt a squeeze in my stomach, and I gasped.It came again, and my breath hitched. I slowly caressed my stomach, but it still came again, and I felt like I would drop death if I don't find something to eat immediately. I pulled off the covers immediately, before sitting up, but before I could jump out of bed, the aromantic smell that hit my nose made my head snapped to the vanity table.It was filled with dishes of various kinds, and my stomach growled loud. I chuckled, before I immediately climbed down the bed and hurried to were the food was, and began eating.I finished everything, and even went ahead to lick the plates. I couldn't help it, I was too hungry. I bedged in satisfaction, before dropping the plate back into the tray.I carried everything I used in eating out of Ryan's room, and hea
Scarlett POVThe gate closed after Delvin passed, and I saw him approaching me.I sniffed and cleaned away my tears when he approached. I didn't want him to know that I was crying, but he hugged me.It was a warm hug, and his hand gently soothed my back, and that gesture alone was all it took for me to burst into tears. I couldn't help it."Would he be alright?" I asked through sniffs. The way I felt comfortable with Jayden wasn't the way I felt with his brother, but I had a feeling he wouldn't try to hurt me."Ryan would be just fine. Let's go inside," he said and the lead broke away from the hug."Is he safe with his uncle?" I asked when our gazes met. He had beautiful brown eyes."Definitely. An army also went with them," he said, leading me to the living room."I didn't see any army, why didn't you go with him instead? What if his uncle tries to do something bad?" I asked, having a strange fear for Ryan. I knew he didn't trust his uncle, so being with him in an unconscious state,
Scarlett POVHe had just broken free one of his hands from the silver cuffs. He broke the silver cuff!I could see the shock on his face and that of everyone in the room."Should we go cuff him back before he'll be able to break the other cuff on his hand?" One of the men asked, but Ryan's uncle immediately shook his head."Don't even think of doing that. You won't survive if you go near him, he's capable of killing you with his one hand you want to cuff again," his uncle said immediately, and the one who had asked swallowed hard."Scarlett would go instead," he suddenly said, and my eyes almost bulged out of the sockets as I felt like I wasn't hearing correctly."What?!" I asked, staring at Ryan's uncle in shock."Ryan is hurting himself by breaking those silver cuffs, they aren't just any cuffs. He's angry that we brought him to hospital," his uncle explained."Then let him go if he doesn't want to be in a hospital," I told him, but he shook his head."Ryan needs to be in a hospital
