Scarlett’s POV

Lyra found her way into the palace with the excuse of returning linens to the rooms in the palace.

She found me in the hallway.

“I found them,” she whispered, casting a glance over her shoulder to make sure no one saw us talking. She pressed herself into the wall as she spoke. “I found your omegas.”

My chest tightened. “Where? Are they okay?”

“They’re in the city, they’re working in the city.” She sounded like she was about to say something that she wasn’t sure how I would react. “They’re at seperate ends though.”

I placed a hand on her shoulder. “What do you mean by they’re at seperate ends.”

She nodded, eyes wide. “Moana works with a spice merchant at the east gates, one of the omegas I know here has a cousin who helps him unload goods there, she said the merchant is kind. He feeds his workers, pays them fairly and he keeps them safe from outsiders.”

I exhaled, the breath I didn’t know I was holding. Moana would survive, and she was safe.

“What about Miriam?”

    Scarlett’s POV Draco rose early these days, always before me and always bare chested, moving slowly around the room like he was putting up a show for me. At first, I tried not to, I stayed still with my eyes half closed in a fake sleep. But I watched him anyway, every morning. There was something about the way his muscles shifted beneath his skin as he stretched, the scars on his back that I wanted to trace with my fingertips. The tattoo ink that curled along his spine like a serpent, the way he usually stood at the window looking at the grounds. “You’re staring at me,” he said one morning. He hadn’t even turned around, I guess my eyes had burned his back. “You’re not that interesting that I’d stare at.” I replied, my voice hoarse from sleep. He turned to me then with a grin on his face, “You know you can’t really lie.”He was right. I was always a terrible liar but before I got here, I’d never needed to lie. The worst part was with him, I wasn’t so sure who I was lying to mor

    Hanna’s POV Draco used to look at me like I was everything. I was the golden flower among the other concubines. Now he barely noticed me at all. And now, he devoured the new girl in ways he had never done with me. He gave her his attention, his time and his body, all things he used to give me. I didn’t even know what I had expected Scarlett to be like, our first encounter was the day she stood head to head with my Alpha demanding something. She didn’t back down from him, as if they were equals.I had half expected that after that day, he’d make her scream in pain from defying him, or sob, or even rot in her silken dresses until she’d fade away. But no, she wasn’t made a decoration or left as a pretty shadow, rather he kept her. She was never even assigned a seperate room or quarters, she slept in his bedchamber like it was her own. Like it was her place. She had been here weeks yet he hadn’t grown tired of her, she walked beside him and now he let her speak in meetings. An

    Scarlett’s POV We sat down in the east tower, we had just finished a meeting with his strategists. Now we simply sat and enjoyed the sun. “I hate you,” I said flatly, it was more to myself than to him. Draco didn’t even blink, only an eyebrow arched as his robe blew in the wind. “You’ve been saying that since you got here.” “I mean it more now.” He smirked. “If it helps you sleep at night but you know you don’t.” “I definitely do.” He took a lazy sip from his drink. “Then stop acting like you want me all the time…” I blinked. “What?! I don’t.” “You do,” he cut in. “You are always in my bed chamber and you never leave.” My teeth clenched together. “That’s because I don’t have any other place to sleep, I don’t have a bedchamber.” He shrugged. “You don’t need one, since you already sleep in mine.” Arrogant bastard. “Your ego is insufferable. You know that right?” He stepped closer to me, his voice became lower. “And yet you moan when I touch you.” “Shut up.” His grin wi

    Scarlett’s POV I knew I should have walked away. After that kiss, after the soft way his mouth moved against mine like I was his perfect mate. I should’ve pulled back, maybe even pushed him off, reminded myself of everything he had taken from me.But I didn’t do that. Instead I foolishly let him kiss me. Out in the open and I took it a step further and kissed him back. *** He stopped hiding it. What we were, whatever he felt, he stopped pretending like it was a secret. The next morning, he moved with me into court. I didn’t stand behind him or trailing with the servants. No, I walked beside him. Like I wasn’t a prisoner of war, like I was his equal. And he didn’t say a word about it. He just placed his hand on the small of my back, and guided me into the Meeting Hall like I belonged there. Like I was something more. The whispers between his Alphas were almost immediate, their guards stiffened and they exchanged glances at the marble table. Hanna and the other concubine

    Scarlett’s POV The silence sounded like a trap, like it was trying to tell me something. The palace had been too quiet, I expected more. I expected the concubines to have tried different schemes on me, especially with the show Draco had put up at the last court meeting. The calm in the Coyote Palace had a name. The calm was me. I brought that calm, I still couldn’t wrap my head around it but I guess me being by Draco’s side brought some form of order to the palace. I was the reason things were changing and it wasn’t because I had asked for it. It wasn’t because I had wanted to play Luna but because Draco…. He made me look like their Luna. ***The concubines hadn’t confronted me openly…Not yet at least. They were far too practiced in evil subtlety for a public confrontation. Currently their war was waged with cold glances in whispers and in some strategic accidental run ins. None dared to do anything in particular. I wondered if it was because they feared what Draco would do

    Scarlett’s POV He told me at dusk. I had just finished pointing out a minor route change on his map, one that could probably save his eastern patrols nearly three days of food supply. He hadn’t said anything to me at first, just stared at me, there was a strange calm behind his eyes. Then, without hesitation, he said, “I’ll be leaving before sunrise. The Blackmoon Pack has defied my direct orders.” My body stilled, my fingers halted on the paper. ”They defied you? How?” “They have ignored three summons, they hid a rogue I marked for death and refused to send their tax tithe last moon.”His voice was level, I could have said he even sounded bored. Like it was routine. Like it meant nothing. “And what’s your plan?” I asked, even though I already knew the answer to the question. He shrugged. “They’ll be reminded of who they answer to.” “What does that mean exactly?” I pressed.He looked at me like I was not catching the drift. “I’ll take their gates and make an example of them.

    Scarlett’s POV Without Draco here, the palace felt different. It’s not that it was quieter or even emptier. No. It was wilder. Like something had been removed from the palace and now there was this big empty space, free for the wrong people to fill. Draco ruled with fear, control, sharp orders and cold looks but at least he kept the wolves in check. The concubines whispered, yes but they whispered carefully. And now? They were wantonly destructive. With Draco gone, the Coyote Palace became their playground again. The omegas shook like leaves in the wind, with their heads bowed so low one would think they had all developed hunches on their backs. There were no rules now, only hierarchy and the omegas were at the bottom. I was at the top of that hierarchy but all the concubines wanted me knocked off. *** I heard her before I saw her. I heard Lirah’s sharp voice laced with venom slicing through the hallway. “No! I said don’t touch that, you stupid little bitch! Is your hear

    Draco’s POV “We’ll make camp when we get to the border before the Blackmoon pack.” I ordered. The horses we rode pounded against the floor of the forest in one rhythm. My mind wasn’t on the ride. It was on her. My Scarlett. I hadn’t touched her before I left, no kiss, no hand squeeze, not even a look to keep me anchored. She said she wasn’t feeling well. I didn’t question it out loud but I’d be lying if I said it didn’t bother me. I knew why she had said it. She had been different with me after I told her about my intended battle with the Black Moon Pack, she was still soft and warm but she was watching me differently. Like she was noticing something different about me, like she was measuring my every move.I’d seen the look before, it was the same look generals had before battle, and some women before a problem occurred. There was no hate in her eyes anymore. But there was something worse yesterday. She was disappointed. And for the first time in my life, I actually car

    Draco’s POV I had never been more livid at a group of women before in my life. In fact I had never paid much attention to what the concubines did with their time. I stood in the center of my bedchamber completely naked, I reached for a robe. The steam from our sex was still thick in the air, and all I could think about was replaying what Scarlett had just said about the other concubines. What they did, what they had said to her. Those petty little women I once amused myself with, now had the audacity to torment the only person in this palace who actually meant something to me. Scarlett was a different species of woman, she had shared my bed, matched my rage and also brought her ideas to the table. She wasn’t just exciting, she was valuable to me. And while I was gone waging a battle between a pack that was committing treason, they were mocking her family’s death by my hands. They knew exactly what they were doing. As much as I didn’t regret my decision to wage war again

    Scarlett’s POV From the bathhouse, we went straight to the bedchamber. Draco pushed me into the room like I was already his next battle and… I liked it. The moment my back touched the wall, his mouth took mine, it was hot and consuming. He tasted like what I thought a warrior would taste like, manly, strong and dangerous. His hand was in my hair, holding me in place for the kiss while his other hand dragged my thigh up around his waist as he pressed closer to me.His body was heated up under his clothes, his muscles were lax from the aftermath of the bathing house. I felt like he needed to get the bloodlust out of his system. He didn’t speak as he enjoyed the taste of our kiss. He didn’t even give me time to breathe, in truth he didn’t need to. Something about the fact that he wanted just me, made me want him even more desperately. I was already moist for him, I felt his finger leave my thigh and find their way to my deep haven, it slid in easily and I moaned. He took it out

    Scarlett’s POV The trumpet echoed through the palace before sunrise. It sounded like a demigod had blown it, there was power and an undeniable ease that he had gone to battle and was returning. Draco was home. I should have moved. I should have gotten up, dressed and walked to the courtyard like every other woman before me, with my head held high and my demeanor calm and my spine straight. That was how it was done but I sat frozen. What if he brought someone? A new concubine. What if she was beautiful, blood born and handed to him like a prized mare? Draco wouldn’t refuse her. I pictured the same blank and broken look I had on when I first found myself in his palace. What if history repeated itself right in front of me?My stomach turned. Maybe I was going to be sick. *** When I finally came out of the room, I was already late but he wasn’t in the court yet. I walked through the hallway and down the stone steps. The other concubines had gathered at the steps of the main
