NEXT DAY CALLUM “Ohh hi, Good Morning Callum,” Gina greeted me with a wide smile as soon as she opened the door to her room. “Good Morning, how are you this morning, what about Amy?!” I asked and she nodded with a small smile.“I’m fine, she’s fine too she’s still asleep,” she said and I nodded slowly. “Alright then, I’ll be heading to work now, I just wanted to check up on you guys. If there’s anything you need, please let me know,”I said to her and she nodded slowly. “We still haven’t found Kian’s body, but if we do, I’ll let you know” I said to her and she nodded slowly. She gently rubbed the back of her neck and stepped closer to me,“Have you heard from Scarlett today?!” She asked, I raised my lips slightly and shook my head slowly.“No, it’s still quite early, she’ll probably still be asleep, but we ….” I trailed off as my phone began to ring in my pocket. Annabeth. My brows narrowed and I moved my head back slightly. I swiped on the answer button and placed it over my e
CALLUM 11:00pm …. “Seth, is everybody ready?!” I asked and he nodded slowly. “Great, I’m coming with you!” I said and got up to my feet. “No no, you don’t have to. Trust me, we’ll get the job done,” he said. I passed him a long stare and shook my head slowly.“I want to be there, so I can be sure you’re doing your jobs thoroughly,” I muttered. Just then, Gina walked into the living room with her hands behind her. “Callum, there’s something I need to tell you,” she mumbled. “Gina, please hold on, now is not the time, I’m actually very busy,” I rushed my words without sparing her a glance. I slowly bent and reached for Scarlett’s clothes folded on the floor. “Incase you might want to send those scent trained wolf to sniff her out,” I muttered handing over the bag to him. “Kian is not dead,” she said. I paused and slowly turned to look at her. “What are you talking about?!” “R-remember that —that night? When I said he didn’t find me ? It was a lie, he found me,” she stuttered s
TWO DAYS LATERCORA “What the hell Kian! After I told you to leave her to me!” I growled, my eyes on Scarlett who was lying almost lifeless on her bed in her room. Her head was wrapped in thick bandages. She looked pale white and her lips was very red. “You even had the mind to bring her here? Where do you think is the first place they’ll try to look for her?!” I asked turning to Kian where he stood by the foot of the bed. Alex was seated by her vanity table and the new girl Kian came with — Kaitlyn, stood by the other side of the bed. She had a look of strong hatred for Scarlett as she stared at her on the bed, I don’t know why but I just have an unsettling feeling around her. “You should even be thanking me for saving her life, left to Kaitlyn, she would have been dead!”“Don’t worry about them looking for her here, they’re probably caught up with looking for her in the alliances surrounding that ocean” I said to her. I slowly turned to look at Alex,“You should thank me, I wan
SCARLETT I watched as she froze over her hands gripping the door knob tightly. I wiped my tears dry and dropped the picture onto the space beside me. “Kaitlyn Pierce, my twin but we were born two hours apart which practically makes me your older sister,” I continued my voice barely above a whisper but loud enough for her to hear me. “Kaitlyn Pierce , you swore never to get married because you were scared of how badly Father treated mother, but you never said a word of it out, you told just me because you knew mother would freak out if you ever mentioned a word of it,” “Shut up!” She growled as she turned the door knob locked and swiftly dashed to me.“How did you find out so much about me! Since when have you been stalking me! Who did you pay to find out about me!” She growled in my face. I didn’t flinch, I just kept staring at her.“We were the HK twin from silvery Island, we were a force and we were unstoppable even at our young age. I was the stubborn one and you were the peace
SCARLETT “Scarlett!” My mother yelled as she forcefully pushed the door open and barged in.“Scarlett!” She yelled even louder. With shaky hands I slowly pushed the closet door open and peeked out. “Mom?!” I whispered, I saw her pause and slowly turn to me. I slowly opened the door fully and stepped out limping. “M-y—Myla, she tried to kill me?” I stuttered as I stretched out the wrist I had stabbed myself in to her. Her eyes widened almost immediately and she stepped closer to me. “She did this to you?!” She asked, I nodded firmly, winced pretentiously and stepped away when she tried to touch the hand. “She — she came here, plugged in, like she was being controlled by what she was listening to, I couldn’t even defend myself because I don’t have a wolf.” I said, she stiffened and slowly looked up at me. “You don’t have a wolf?!” She whispered and I nodded slowly. “I don’t remember ever having a wolf? Did I develop one in the last Eight months?!” I asked, she swallowed hard and
CALLUM Later ….“His name is Marcus. He’s been Cora’s accomplice for the longest time,”“He has been helping her make all the potions that makes her execution seamless. He’s also Alyssa’s real father” Myla said to me, my gaze intensely on the building in front of us and I nodded slowly. “I’ve been seeing him for some weeks now, he has helped Scarlett and I a great deal,”“When I spoke to him today, Cora found out that he has been seeing me, I know she’s going to do something to him, this is my chance to make him escape her,” she said. “I’m only doing this because it’s what Scarlett would have wanted, and you should know, he most definitely won’t go Scott free,” I said to her and she nodded slowly. “I understand that. We just need him to be alive as our witness,” she responded, with that we both stepped out of the car and I headed towards the door. I insisted Nolan stayed behind with Annabeth while we settle this quickly. As soon as we got to the entrance I tried to open the door
SCARLETT NEXT DAY. At the hospital. “Here’s the result,” I slowly took the envelope from the doctor and stretched it out to Kaitlyn,“Will you open it?!” I asked, she swallowed hard and slowly took the envelope from me. I watched as she tore the envelope open with shaky hands. She slowly dipped her hands inside it and took out the white paper in it. Her gaze fell on it and her eyes went tightly shut.“What does it say?!” I asked my voice barely about a whisper.“It’s a hundred percent match.” The doctor supplied immediately.“Although something is surprising, the report says that you both are identical twins sharing the same parents, it doesn’t seem that way to me,” he added and I nodded firmly at his words.“I understand this is your office, but please can you give us a minute? I need to talk to her,” I said and he nodded slowly. “Sure,” he muttered and with that he pushed his chair backwards, got up and walked out. I exhaled deeply and the next thing I heard was Kaitlyn whimperi
SCARLETT Later that day … “I’ve sent Kian’s location to you, Kaitlyn says he’ll be there for a while, since my mother has me already, he’s making an attempt on Callum’s life,”“I’ll update you as she updates me,” I said to Myla over video call and she nodded slowly.“Is Cora still looking for me? Do you think I should take my mother away so she doesn’t find her?” She asked, I bit on my lower lips and nodded slowly. “I’ll take care of your mom don’t worry,” I said to her and she nodded with a small exhale.“Thank you,” she whispered and I nodded slowly. “The anniversary ceremony will hold in two weeks, I plan for us to get our facts right and expose my mother on that day, I’d do it when it’s time for me to give my speech,” I said to her and she nodded slowly. “I’ll keep Callum in the loop,”“Do you still not want me to tell him the truth?” She asked and I shook my head slowly. “I think it’s best I tell him myself, I’ll find a way before the anniversary, just so he’s not caught of
SCARLETT “Thank you!” I said to the taxi driver immediately he got to the front of my house. I settled the bills, opened the door and got out. Just as I was about to enter the house, I heard a loud honking sound, only then did I realize there was a car packed by my house. I was so consumed in my thoughts to realize. I turned, the door slowly went open and I saw Callum step out of the driver seat with a big flower bouquet in his hands. I rolled my eyes to the back of my head as I stepped back, folded my hands across my chest and waited for him to make his way towards me. “My Queen,” he said as soon as he got closer to me and stretched the flowers to me. I raised my lips in a sheer.“Don’t call me that,” I mumbled and gently took the flowers from him. “I’m sorry, ““Honestly I had no idea why I didn’t tell you about it, I guess she’s just a part of my life I so desperately wanted to forget,”“Still not an excuse, you should have told me. I deserved to know, not just setting me up
DAY OF THE ANNIVERSARY Hours before the Anniversary ….SCARLETT “If you would just talk to him, he’s been trying for two days now,” Kaitlyn said to me, she was seated on my bed, while I was seated in front of the vanity mirror applying makeup. Cora and Alyssa had gone ahead to set things up and it was just me at home. I paused and slowly looked up at her through the mirror. “You don’t understand do you?!” I muttered and she sighed deeply. “He lied to me, he told me I was his first ..”“Knowing fully well that I wasn’t, that hurts like crazy,” I paused as she completed my statement for me. I rolled my eyes to the back of my head and resumed applying my lipstick, her phone dinged and I turned to her immediately,“Is that Myla?!” I asked immediately and she nodded slowly. “She’s on her way here,” she muttered and my shoulders slumped. “No other thing?” I asked as I closed the lipstick and replaced it in my drawer. “You really don’t want to know the answer to that,” she mumbled, I
