Ryan POV"Why? Are you suddenly scared of her?""I don't want to hurt her.""Correct yourself," he said, and I sighed."I don't want to hurt her pregnancy.""You're unbelievable.""I corrected myself," I said blankly."You're terrible.""I can't help myself either.""Whatever, let's just check on her. I have a feeling she must be really hurt," he grumbled, and I turned to him."I have no feeling like there's any sign of danger around her.""Let's just go," he said and walked past me. After making sure no one was listening to our conversation, I walked away with my hand clenching my chest in pain, while he led the way, still carrying my things, not knowing that I was in a deep pain. I've been struggling to hide so he wouldn't notice. I would have to visit my doctor.When we reached Scarlett's door, I stood outside, not wanting to go inside her room."Aren't you coming in?" Jayden asked, also standing beside me, and I shook my head."Just go in and check on her, and let me know if she's
Ryan pov"Hi, ryan," she said when she reached where i was and stopped in front of me. I was too shocked to say anything, and stare at her as she tiptoed and encircled her hands around my neck.She pecked my lips and giggled, before standing on her feet. "it seems you're noticing me now," i managed to grumbled under my breath when she was about to walk away."yeah, i just saw you when i was out of the ambulance, have you been around?" she asked, and i stared at her in disbelief. she talks as though whatever she was saying is the exact truth when she was definitely lying, and the worst was that whenever she does that, you'll start rethinking what had happened."are you okay? you're soaked in blood, aren't you feeling any pain? is the baby okay?" i asked, and looked at her belly, before looking back at her."blood?" she asked as she looked down at herself. she gasped, her hands flying to cover her mouth as she looked up at me, before looking at everyone around.they had kept the convul
Ryan POV"what do you mean?" she asked confused, and i glanced at her."it doesn't mean anything, just have a warm bath and change your clothes," I stated before lying down on the bed, not wanting to talk much."what clothes should i wear?" she asked, and I sighed under my breath. pregnant woman were pains, that must be why jayden had ran away, leaving me with the responsibilities. though I wanted to run away, but i couldn't."wear only a panties," I answered, watching her face, but she had no reaction, making wonder what had happened to her facial expression that used to be obvious and could tell her feelings."do you want to see me nude?" she asked, and I took a while to think about it. me telling her to wear only her panties means I wanted to see her nude, so I nodded."What about your hands?" "What's wrong with my hand?""I think I can make the venoms to disappear. I've thought about it, and I think I truly can do just that.""Really?" I asked, and she nodded."I've heard you, no
Ryan POV I hurried approached the bathtub she was in, and squatted before it, watching the bloody water."What is this?" I asked, staring at her, before I dipped my hand into the bathtub of bloody water and brought it out.I perceived it, trying to confirm if it was blood or another prank she was trying to play on me, but my eyes windened when the smell of blood rushed through my nostrils."What did you do?" I returned my cold gaze to her and asked, feeling different emotions of confusion and anger wavering within me."I.. I was shaving," she stuttered, fear obvious in her eyes as she stared at me."How hard or fast were you shaving to cut yourself and result to such bleeding? What did you really do to yourself?" I asked, panicked as I raised her up from the bathtub."Where did you cut yourself?" I swallowed the lump in my throat and asked, staring at the blood running down her legs.She opened her legs, so I squatted to have a look."It isn't a deep cut," I muttered when I touched th
Ryan POVThe sound of plates made my eyes flutter open, and when I turned to the counter in the room where a table was, I saw Scarlett seated there.She was eating different types of food, and when I glanced at my phone, I shook my head. Wasn't it too early for her to be eating.I sighed and crawled out of bed, and quietly walked into the bathroom, and closed the door gently behind me.I approached the sink in the bathroom and sprinkled water on my face, before tearing open a packet of new towels and using one to clean my face.When I was done, I walked out of the bathroom, cleaning my hair with the towel, but I stopped at the door when I saw her now eating bread and milk.She suddenly turned to where I stood, and stopped eating when she spotted me, our gazes meeting."Good morning," she greeted, before she turned away and continued eating.She obviously just had her bath and had a towel wrapped around her waist and another towel tied around her hair.After observing her, I asked, "Wh
Ryan POVI remained in Scarlett room after she left. I stared blankly at the wall, lost in my thoughts.I picked up her bread and took a bite, confirming if what she ate wasn't poisonous, or anything. I was over possessive, but I'm just looking out for her.I gradually chewed on it, but sighed and dropped it back.I glanced at my phone which has been turning on and off since it was on silent mode, before I placed down the bread.Just as I was about to grasp my phone, a sharp feeling of fear crossed my heart, and my hands flew to my chest.The pain still lingered in my chest, and I silently wondered why I felt this sudden fear, because I wasn't scared, I was only eating my baby Mama's bread.I stood straight, my hand still on my chest as I stared at the bread, wondering if it was the reason for me feeling this way.I wasn't comfortable, and the weather was cold outside, so I walked towards Scarlett's closet, pulled it open, and took out a black hoodie, before I left her room.I walked
Ryan POV"Someone pushed me, that's why I fell. I thought it was you who came to meet me, that's why I hadn't looked back to see who it was. I know I'm worthless, I didn't cling to that wall and hurt my fingers because of my life, it was because of the pregnancy. I know you can't get another heir apart from the child in my belly, that's why. Do you know how long I've been hanging there? I did it for you, Ryan, but for letting me know how worthless I am. I've always been expecting you to say this, you bought me for a hundred million dollars and you still call me a supermarket illiterate? But you know what, Ryan, I never bargain with you to be the mother of your child, you and I know that I never signed any documents for this burden I found myself in. You think being pregnant is fun? You think I'm enjoying it? You think I enjoy eating like I've been doing lately? You think I enjoy staying here with you? Do you really have any interest in your money? I'm stupid? Fine. I'm mad? Fine. I sh
Ryan POVI silently stared at her. She was sexy, and I knew I wasn't supposed to be standing and watching her without doing anything, given how aroused seeing how naked and vulnerable she was in front of me, but I was considering my pregnant baby mama. Doing this would hurt her, but at a second thought, it wasn't as though I cared. Doing something like this which would hurt her without me needing to raise my hand on her and beat her up was what I wouldn't mind. It seems over-familiarity has filled her with disrespect, knowing I wouldn't really hurt her because she was carrying my pregnancy."There's no going back," I said before walking into the bathroom, knowing she was following behind me. When we were in the bathroom, I turned, and saw her standing behind me, her eyes scanning around my bathroom.I immediately pulled her to myself, her body slamming into me, and leaned in and kissed her.The kiss was a very rough one, and this lady was able to keep up, and I knew she was mature en
Ryan POV She suddenly bursted into laughter, and after staring at her for a while, I also joined her, but when everyone joined the laughter of shock, her face paled."Ryan, what is going on? Why does she look like me? Why are they all here?" She asked me again."Scarlett, you know I love you and would never lie to you anymore?" I asked, and she nodded."So now, I want you to believe me that Gianna, your late mum, and Easton aren't your parents, they're your aunt and uncle. These people here are your biological parents, I did DNA myself. If you were living with these people when you were little, your childhood would have been awesome, you wouldn't have gotten parents who hated you and didn't really care about your well being, but you got switched, your late mum exchanged you. She's not your mum, she's your aunt, she wanted her daughter, which is the original Scarlett, to live a luxurious life, while they pulled you into their shit. Easton has been arrested, and he confessed. I'll play
Ryan POVIt has been a week now, and Scarlett hasn't woken up, but has been discharged alongside the kids.We're been staying in Raven's Villa, since it wouldn't tok proper to abandon it. Wherever he was, he would be happy that the kids stayed in his house.Jayden stayed with Scarlett and the kids, alongside with the maids who were staying with her when she left the mansion to leave alone. They were trustworthy, so I had transferred them over to take care of her.I had returned to my pack for Raven's burial, and after that, I visited the royal family to do a DNA test, since I had gone with strands of Scarlett hair, and the results were shocking.My Dawson couldn't believe it, it was like I brought chaos into their always peaceful home.But when we did DNA with Ava's hair, it was even more shocking than it didn't match at all, which explained the fact that Scarlett is the original daughter. The Royal Family had no idea of who Scarlett was, and demanded to be taken to their real daught
Ryan POVI went back to Raven's house, and saw that the gammas had already left with his phone.I remained in his office, crying and regretting everything I had done to Scarlett.I spent hours praying and crying, and my heart was bleeding. Why am I an Alpha if I couldn't protect those that I loved? I couldn't save the raven from dying, and now I still can't save Scarlett. What is the extent of having such stupid power which can't raise up the dead? I couldn't explain the extent at which I hated myself, I felt so bad.I had transferred all the power I had in me to Scarlett when I was carrying her out of that building, so that she would be able to conceive the child, and also survive, and I was desperately praying to the moon goddess to make it work."Jayden, meet in Raven's Villa, we have some unfinished business to take care of," I said to Jayden through a mind link, my angry voice sounding like that of an unleashed demon.Ryan has always been called a demon, it's time to unleash out
Ryan POVThe men in the room exclaimed in shock, gasping, even Jayden, and it startled me.It was Scarlett, unconscious, her two hands tied up, and her mouth was gagged. But the worst of all was that she had a silver knife buried inside her pregnant stomach, and her white dress and pants were covered in coated blood.I staggered backwards, too shocked to do anything, so Jayden ran inside and began loosening her.The gammas also went to help, while I remained standing outside, and watched as the men immediately loosened her and carried her unconscious body out of the wall to where she could receive ventilation.They've suffocated her in that little space with no ventilation."She's still alive, she needs more breeze," Jayden announced, and immediately took off his shirt and began fanning her.The rest of the men did the same thing, and I could feel the breeze from where I was standing, leaned on the wall for support."Her water has broken, take her to a hospital," I managed to recover
Ryan POV We pulled up in the location sent to us, but was met with a heartbreaking sight.The Villa looks as though it has been visited by thugs.The details I found inside the villa explained that we were in the right place, it was my younger brother's house, but I couldn't find him or Scarlett."Could they have been abducted?" I asked, and turned to my Beta who was seated on the couch."I have no idea, Ryan. I think I saw something outside, it looks weird, I think we should check it out." Jayden stood up from where he was seated and began going outside, and I followed behind him.He led me to the garden which was at the back of the house, but the sight that welcomed us left us speechless."Raven?" I called, my eyes scanning his figure which was on the floor in the garden.I slowly approached him. I couldn't tell how I felt right now, but I was staring at the lifeless body of my younger brother, who had a silver knife buried inside his heart."Raven?" I called again, and squatted be
Ryan POVI raised my head slowly, thoughts about Scarlett racing in my mind. The possibility of being able to survive silver despite losing her wolf was having a meaning now, but I snapped out of the trance."This can't be possible, she can't possibly be exchanged at birth.""That's what the portrait is trying to tell us. The baby with blue eyes is the daughter of the Dawson's family, and is named Ava, while the baby with emerald eyes is the daughter of the Easton's family, and is named Scarlett. But right now, everything has been twisted.""Does this mean Scarlett is –""Don't mention, don't even mention it," Jayden interrupted, pacing in the room."Are you sure Scarlett doesn't have emerald eyes and we've just forgotten about it due to her absence?" I diverted my eyes to the television when Jayden's question sank in. The picture was paused on the twins, so I stood up, picked up the remote I had thrown away, and pressed the play button.Scarlett pictures, blue eyes, naturally red li
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
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
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
