So Wrong But Feels So Right

Scarlett's pov

It's been two days since I rejected him. Doctors ruled out any potential illnesses and said I was in great shape. Gavin tried to hack into Georgette's phone but was unsuccessful. It made me wonder if I ought to make an effort to peek. The trouble was, I no longer wanted to be around her. I avoided her company in favour of hanging with the omegas or staying in my room.

For a while, I was relieved that my parents stopped bringing Michael up. As usual, life continued, but I couldn't help feeling uneasy about the future. The catch, though, was that they were expert liars. There was no hint of impending doom at all.

Someone knocked on the door.

"It's open."

A stout omega opened the door and offered a motherly smile.

"Ma'am, the alpha is asking for you," she said, trying to smoothen the creases of her apron as she spoke.

"Dad? Okay. Where is he?"

"In the conference room," she said.

I knitted my eyebrows together. The conference room? That sounded like a formal

maybe Gavin is her new mate and when her wolf wakes up she'll let her know.

    Scarlett's povI went numb in his arms. His eye colour seemed to shift between hazel and pitch black, as though his wolf was trying to take over. He pulled me closer to him and much to my surprise, his scent was captivating. Not that I had any complaints. I inhaled, allowing his cinnamon and warm honey scent to invade my nerves. My mouth watered at the sight of his luscious lips and a desire to run my tongue over them arose in my heart. Was that normal? I gulped. For some reason, I couldn't push him away. I enjoyed being in his arms. He licked his lips and slowly let go of me, almost as though he was reluctant to do it. Even after he let me stand on my feet, I couldn't stop staring at him. So many things didn't make sense to me. Why was I feeling all of these strange emotions towards him all of a sudden? My heart rate wouldn't slow down and I could only wish that my breathing was normal. Pursing his lips, he shifted his weight on his feet. "I'm sorry. I… uh… was trying to help…"

    Gavin's povShe heaved a breath and looked away when I asked her about her wolf. "Gavin. I don't know if you will ever be ready to hear me out or fathom what I know. But I have seen and heard enough to be convinced of what I believe in. You have noticed a massive change in my attitude and behaviour and it isn't without a good reason. I trust you and I will tell you everything. But can you just put faith in me at the moment? My wolf is part of whatever is going on…" Her forehead creased as she chewed on her lower lip - something she did whenever she was anxious. She then cast a pleading look at me. "This is a lot for me to accept. Before I tell everything to someone else, I need to digest it myself. Please, Gavin. A bit more time?" I had a sneaking suspicion that what she knew was crucial, but I nodded my head anyway. After dropping her off in the packhouse, I went back to my place. The sweet memories of the time I got to spend with her, lingered in my mind. After having something

    Scarlett's pov "Hello, pretty lady," Michael cast the signature smirk that used to make my heart flutter. "You?!" I was appalled to see him but didn't want to make a scene in front of everyone. I couldn't believe that my own parents had tricked me into going on a blind date with that moron. I better plot a way to escape."I am so glad that you agreed to meet me, Scarlett," he said, sitting down beside me at the table and grabbing my hand. To my relief, the sparks had significantly reduced. It was as good as gone for good. Perhaps my rejection did have an impact on our bond even if he didn't accept it.I yanked my hand away. "I don't like to be touched. Besides, I'm here only because I was tricked into coming. If I knew that you were meeting me, I wouldn't have come."He frowned. It made me wonder if he also noticed the lessened significance of the sparks. Those tiny sparks were the irrefutable proof of a sacred bond formed between two souls. The decrease in those sparks could mean

    Scarlett's povMichael's threats made my mind spin. At least, that's how I interpreted it: as a potential danger. It was unnerving that he was interested in me. Inhaling rapidly, my heart rate increased. I started hyperventilating without even realising it."Hey, hey," Gavin quickly rushed to help me. He grabbed my shoulders, pulling me into his warmth. Warm tears rolled down my cheeks but having someone to support me felt nice. I sobbed into his chest, soaking his shirt as I clutched his jacket and buried my face in his chest. I hated that I was crying y because of how scared I was. Painful memories of the day he attempted to kill me flooded my memory. That was the day he revealed his true character to me. He murdered me in front of the rest of the pack. He chose Georgette over me - his true mate. And that too after destroying my pack. He took everything from me. My family, my home, and even my life. Though the memories were from a past life, they left me very unsettled."What happe

    ChapterScarlett's povHis body tensed at once. "Huh?" My eyes flung open as soon as I realised that I had said that out loud. Horrified, I let go of him and stepped back. Damn it! Why didn't I have better control over my body?"I'm so sorry… I didn't mean to be disrespectful… I made haste to get away! For a while there, I was hoping to fade into the background. If only I had superpowers. I didn't, however. To make matters worse, I couldn't shift to my wolf. She didn't even talk to me. Except for being able to mentally connect with the other members of my pack and having heightened senses, I was no better than a human."Star," he called but I ignored him. He must have thought I was immoral to say such a thing. I mean… who says something like that to her own bodyguard?He called my name, but I was too ashamed to respond. As Gavin stood there in disbelief on his lawn, I slammed the door to my car and sped off.When I finally reached my house, I made a beeline for my bedroom. My parent

    Scarlette's pov I stared at him for a long time. Did he say that he wanted to be my mate? I breathed out. "We both know that mate bonds don't work that way," I told him regretfully though my heart kept screaming otherwise.Oh, how I wished that it was normalised to choose mates in our world. But no. Rejections, choosing the person you want to love was badly frowned upon in all the werewolf packs. We were supposed to wait for our mates. Even if it took an entire lifetime. He sighed. He knew what I meant. "But you have rejected him. Can't we just… I don't know… Have some fun?" I was a little surprised to hear him say that. Fun? Well, that sounded interesting. I wouldn't mind having 'fun' with this fine specimen. The thought curled a mischievous smile on my face. Snickering under my breath, "fun?" I asked. He shrugged his shoulders. "Humans do it all the time. I mean I like you…" he suddenly trailed off and his eyes went wide. Wait… He liked me? That's even more interesting. "Sor

  • Beyond My Mate's Betrayal    I wish

    Scarlette's pov I failed to squeeze any information out from Georgette during lunch but left the eatery with questions arising in my heart for which I wanted answers. Did he really like me? But then why would he like an insufferable snob? I hadn't been anything but rude towards him until recently. Besides, he couldn't have lost all hope of his mate being dead even if his pack was massacred, could he? I mean, his mate could be from another pack… he was an alpha, after all.My eyebrows knitted together as I thought about it. I shook my head and pushed the thoughts away. Nah… he couldn't like me like that. He wouldn't. He was professional at what he did and wouldn't do something stupid like falling for me. That was just not happening. As hurtful as it was to me, I decided never to ponder over it ever again. I had more pressing issues that needed urgent attention - like Michael trying to torch the Crimson Crescent. As I walked through the parking lot towards my car, my phone rang. I

  • Beyond My Mate's Betrayal    Wishful Thinking

    Gavin's povI wouldn't lie, I was taken aback when she crashed her lips on mine, yet, my body seemed to welcome it wholeheartedly. Akela jumped for joy and teased me for being a sucker and freezing on the spot. He liked her and so did I. But we both knew that she didn't belong to us, so we stayed away. Nonetheless, ever since that kiss, Akela's attachment to her magnified… okay maybe I also was feeling a bit more protective over her.During the time we spent together, I tried to make her laugh as much as I could, just so I could hear her melodious voice. When she laughed, her blue eyes would sparkle like two sapphires and I thought that was the most beautiful sight I could see. As we spent more and more time together, I realised that I had failed to prevent my heart from leaning towards her. The air seemed fresher when she was around. Everything seemed better when I was with her. The world was just a better place when she was around.When night fell and we were no longer together, I

  • Beyond My Mate's Betrayal    Epilogue

    Scarlett's pov Edith's incarceration wasn't much of a hassle. She was found guilty of accepting bribery, treason, and attempted murder. After learning about her treachery, we made it a priority to survey all the omegas we had employed in the packhouse in addition to checking the activities of the warriors. Although Michael was gone and the stormy clouds hanging over us had subsided, we didn't want to have any traitors working with us. It didn't take much time for the injured warriors to heal and rejoin the army. As for me, the wound on my forehead healed in no time. However, Gavin didn't take it easy until the doctors ruled out any health issues. After a thorough investigation, it was determined that I was out of danger. The silver's poison hadn't percolated into my bloodstream, thanks to the rapid medical attention I received.Since we merged the packs we had a lot of work pending. Thomas, Kylan, and the warriors were eager to help in the work. We had to re-evaluate the perimeters

  • Beyond My Mate's Betrayal    Success

    Gavin's pov It all happened so fast. When I realised what Michael had done, I felt as though my world had just come to an end. "Star!" I screamed, kneeling beside her. The silver dagger smashed her head and blood was pooling beneath her. Her eyes were closed and there were no signs of life in her. I cast an angry glance at the worst enemy I possibly would ever face. He was trying to flee after throwing the dagger. "Let me at him! Let me taste his blood!" Akela's growls resounded in my head and this time, I didn't try to stop him. The transformation to my wolf was swift and effortless. Growing and snarling in fury, Akela raced towards Michael who had rushed past the guards who were trying to apprehend him. By the time he attempted to shift, it was too late. Akela had already caught up to him and sunk his teeth into his right leg. Michael let out a mighty roar but we couldn't care less. Akela tore off a huge chunk from his thigh, forcing him to give in. The blood spilled out of hi

    Scarlett's pov Fabian seemed to try and avoid the crowd as we rushed towards the staircase. He sniffed the air as he led me down the deserted passageway. I also sniffed the air, hoping to catch a whiff of any familiar scents. As we sprinted down the stairs, I caught a whiff of his aura. A smile instantly curled on my lips. I knew it. He was around. My heart yearned to search for my mate, but Fabian kept leading me away from him. Besides, I didn't want to let Michael escape. I wanted to finish this once and for all. If he ever got the chance to flee, I was sure that we would have to deal with him again. And I was done with him. I wanted nothing more than to end this for good. "Where are we going?" I asked Fabian, who appeared to be sprinting for his life. "The woods," he mumbled as we reached the ground floor. I sucked in a breath. The entire place was chaotic. Some Sapphire Mooners were battling a losing war against the wolves who had invaded their territory. Among them were we

  • Beyond My Mate's Betrayal    Bound

    Scarlett's pov The headache was just as awful as it had been before, but this time, when I awoke, I quickly realised that I was bound. My eyes scanned the space. I was still in Michael's room only this time I wasn't able to move around. I remembered causing havoc in the room, yet everything appeared to be in its place. Michael must have had his omegas clean the place up. I groaned and made an effort to move, but I was only able to slightly move my head because of the restraints. I tried to move my wrists. Something cold and hard was pressing into them. Frowning, I tried to decipher what it was. Upon glancing at them, I realised that I was cuffed to his bed. Pursing my lips together, I tugged at them. Nonetheless, my attempts to move my limbs were useless. At least I wasn't shackled with silver chains. Ignoring the searing pain in my head, I tugged at the restraints. I wanted to break free. Regardless, I froze when I heard a deep sigh. My stomach dropped out of my chest. I wasn't

    Gavin's pov "Of course, I will help! Fabian will lead a squadron of combatants from Garnet Cave. They will arrive at your pack by sunset. I'll give you my word.""Thank you, Alpha. I will forever be grateful for your assistance," I replied on the phone."Michael has gone too far. Kidnapping her means war, Gavin. She is beloved by all of us. I can't believe that he is my son's close friend," he sighed. "Maybe you should talk to him about it. Scarlett told you, remember?" I suggested. "Yeah, she did. I will talk to him. Michael isn't the kind of person I want him to hang out with. I plan to send my son as the commander of the squadron from my pack because, after this, he will be officiated as the new alpha of Garnet Cave." "I'm sure he'll do great. Now please excuse me. I need to check on the preparations for war," I said. "Of course, alpha Gavin. I'm off to dispatch the reinforcement from Garnet Cave." A smile curled on my lips as I ended the call. Garnet Cave was the last pack I

    Scarlett’s pov My head felt like it was about to burst open. The splitting headache didn’t ease regardless of how much time I had spent trying to relax. Quite some time had passed since I had woken up from my sleep. Ever since I woke up, my head had been pounding. Wincing in pain, I shifted. Why wouldn’t the agony cease? “Iris?” I called for my wolf, but it seemed to be that she too was still drowsy. All I received in response was a little groan. Hopefully, she too was gradually waking up. I massaged my forehead in an attempt to ease the distress. It helped a little. But I couldn’t think of a reason for such a severe headache. While I lay on my back, I tried to recall the last place I had been. I remembered being officiated as the luna of Crimson Crescent, while Gavin became the new alpha. I sighed at the remembrance of my beloved mate. I sure hoped that he was around. I could really use the warmth of our bond to heal the pain in my head. My eyebrows knitted together when I recal

    Gavin's pov I was determined to end his pathetic life. I was almost successful when hell broke loose. I was sure that the warriors would do their best to suppress the enemies. I didn't doubt my mate's abilities to protect herself, yet, my heart's desire was to protect her myself. She was my mate, after all. However, looking for her was impossible with Michael following me like a maniac. Heck, I also wanted to end this once and for all so I fought with all my might. Soldiers from both packs rushed to assist us. The challenge was ruined and had turned into a full blown war. I realised that Michael had his claws elongated when he attempted to slash them through my torso. Thankfully, Akela was able to assist me in dodging that blow just in time. I also extended my claws and channelled Akela's strength. Soon enough, we were both doused in our blood. Our power to heal instantly was a massive advantage to us. Healing the minor injuries wasn't a problem. Besides, I wasn't going to give u

    Scarlett's pov Someone had ratted our plans out to Michael. Even with Georgette in lockup and Bert dead, Michael found out about our plans to attack and stationed his army outside his perimeter to meet us, which meant that he had more people working for him in our pack. I hated the fact that we didn't have a clue about who it could be, but it wasn't the time to ponder over that. We had arrived to fight, and this time I was determined to end this for good. "So the Crimson Crescent has a new leader," he smirked, as though he was jeering at us. "It was a pity that Peter was killed by his own beta." I glared at him. Of course, he would try to taunt us. Bert had worked for him after all. He must have found great pleasure in watching us trust our greatest betrayer the entire time. I sneered. I knew that he was just trying to get on our nerves. “There are more traitors in our pack. Apparently, someone has informed you about our arrival.” His unwavering grin was irritating me, noneth

    Michael's pov "Yeah. You better prepare for war. Scarlett is hell bent on avenging her parents' death. She kind of blames it on you." "You're lying," I hissed. "Why would I lie to you? Besides, you have already paid me for this, so I believe that you have earned the truth. Now choosing to believe it or not is going to be your choice. I don't care. I have got what I want," her response was firm. "Oh, and by the way, I managed to click a picture of the soldiers gathering at the packhouse. I don't know what war preparation looks like if this isn't it." "Send it," I demanded. The call ended and within minutes, I received a photo message from her. It was a picture of the warrior's quarters. So agent 2 was more than just any omega. She had access to the warrior's quarters. I guess she wasn't a waste of money after all. The soldiers appeared to be in a rush. A door was opened from which they were taking various kinds of weapons. Their countenances displayed unwavering determinat
