Scarlett looked back out of the car as it made a U-turn and entered the road that led to the hotel. Her eyes zeroed in on another magazine in a stall. Like the one beside her, it had her and Alex's picture on it, but this one was not a business magazine. It was a gossip magazine.“Stop the car.” she told the driver and was thrown forward when he abruptly did. “Careful” Rogan snapped at the driver“Get me that magazine there.” Scarlett told Rogan as she jerked her chin in the direction of the stall.Rogan left the car and approximately four minutes later, he returned to her with the magazine. “Thank you” Scarlett received the magazine and cringed really hard as she read the headings that were in glaring bright red and bold capital letters. 'Is she just a manager or something more?''Is she Alex Bandini's baby mama?'Scarlett groaned as she began to read. She felt a headache rising in her head, but at the same time she found the gossip magazine funny. She and Alex had been asked ques
Before the woman would ask any more questions that could open wounds that were already beginning to heal, Scarlett quickly moved on to asking for her help. “I think the werewolf’s race is in the risk of being exposed”The woman's expression immediately turned serious, and she sat up straight in her chair, “What do you mean by that? Is there something you know that we don't?”“Well, it's all my fault that it is happening”With frown lines marring her brows, the woman asked, “How? What do you mean by it is your fault? What did you do?”“I can't really can't the whole blame on me because most of that blame should go to your beloved alpha for banishing me” Scarlett spat the last part with disgustThe woman nodded even if she was now looking confused, “Okay? ““This is my first time being pregnant and since I was to become Luna, I was yet to take my course for medicine and midwifery. I had to go to the human hospital regularly for a checkup and the doctors have been seeing things that don
Scarlett's head was abuzz with different thoughts. Where one ended was where the next began, and she felt like she would collapse.She tried not to think of her father and what might happen to him should a war start. Even if Scarlett hated Liam, she believed that he loved his wolves more than any other thing in the world. He took his position as the alpha of the pack seriously. Had he not discarded her who has been by his side for five years to pick Olivia and his child with her, which would have been the future alpha? Had he not banished her, not even stopping to think for a moment if she might die out there, just because he thought she pushed Olivia down the stairs and caused his child to die? Scarlett was sure he wouldn't allow any harm to come to his people, but even he himself could not control or stop other Alphas from coming together to fight against his pack, which was one of the biggest and strongest. They had too many enemies. Some of these other packs have been their enemi
“If there is really a plot like you said, the alpha couldn't possibly be involved. I know Olivia never liked you, and you felt the same way, so Olivia might have plotted against you. But if you think of it in another way, the alpha is highly intelligent, he cannot be deceived. How sure am I that you are not the one cooking up all of these ideas just to get me to help you?” Scarlett knew it would be hard to get this woman to help her, especially if she was talking down on Liam, but she was determined to get help, and it was only this woman who was available to render the help. “I was not alone that day. Willow was with me when everything happened. She was even the first one to discover that everything that was happening was a planned work. We first thought it was planned by Olivia alone, but now, I know Liam was involved.” She could just ask the woman to reach out to Willow and make her own findings before helping her. “Willow?” The woman asked, and Scarlett could sense that this wo
Why had Scarlett thought that it would take the woman a long time before she would get back to her? She spent the next day tapping her feet anxiously and staring out the window of her office. She messed up so many things and even her assistant noticed, but Scarlett just laughed it off when she was asked if she was alright.Scarlett was scared that the woman wouldn't be able to convince her friend and that she would be exposed. She half expected werewolf's warriors to come bursting through her office door in the hotel to take her away, but she knew it wouldn't be possible. It will create a ruckus and draw attention to them, so maybe they will hijack her car and drag her away on her way home - She was scared to go home. She half expected to suddenly faint and wake up back in her pack with Liam towering over her with a scowl while demanding an explanation from her for running away with his child. Scarlett breathed a sigh of relief when she got home, and even more so when she finally la
“Finally. I thought I was going to throw up all over myself before this stupid plane lands” Alana wheezed out as she opened her mouth wide to take in gulps of fresh air to free up her closed chest. “Oops, sorry baby girl. You are doing this because of your man. Can't let another woman snatch him. Now, can we?” Mandy asked as she rubbed Alana on the back to calm her down. “It's a good thing you didn't eat anything. We can't have you throwing up all over that beautiful plane. But of course, you can throw up all over that Scarlett or whatever her name is” Alana made a throaty sound in agreement before the two women moved to the car whose door has been held opened for them“You already know where we are going, Desmond. Make sure to get us there alive and in one piece” Mandy turned on her phone to reply to her emails after that. She didn't see the look Desmond threw at her from the rearview mirror, nor did she see the glint that flashed in his eyes. **And they lived happily ever after
Fiancé? Scarlett frowned in confusion at the woman who was looking at her with a hostile gaze. What fiancé was she asking about because Scarlett was dead ass confused? She was about to ask the women to explain herself when she said, “My fiancé is Alex, and please don't tell me you don't already know that” If Scarlett was frowning in confusion before now, she was frowning in shock. This woman, whoever she was, was trying to say that Alex was her finance? Scarlett looked at Mandy expecting everything to be a joke, but Mandy was not smiling or even smirking. In fact, Mandy looked surprised too, but Scarlett was sure that Mandy was surprised because of something else and not for the same reason she was. Alana leaned on the desk, her butt half lifted off her seat, “Alex is my fiancé. Hello” she waved the diamond ring on her finger for Scarlett to see.Scarlett's eyes followed the big diamond ring on Alana's finger before they returned to her face.Scarlett recovered quickly, quicker than
HimScarlett had called her child a him while trying to warn Mandy about insulting her unborn baby. She had refused to listen to that small voice in her heart that has been screaming about wanting a baby boy. She thought that the baby would look so much like Liam if it turned out to be a boy. She did not want to live, seeing Liam's face for the rest of her life, but she knew there was no running away from it.The baby, whether boy or girl, would surely look like Liam or, if the baby looked like her, would have some or most of Liam's attributes. And most importantly, she was sure that her baby would be a werewolf. She knew that it would be better if she got a female baby because the male child would be an alpha wolf, and it would cause problems for her. He would have the dominant attitude of an alpha and would need his own pack. He might even start demanding to know his father before he gets too old. A female child would be easy to tame, but deep down, she yearns for a male child. A
Dear wonderful readers of mine,If you are seeing this that only means you read this book until the end. I just want to tell you how great you are for reading my story and how much I appreciate it. So many things happened while creating this story and I never thought I would complete it, but I did and it was only possible because I knew you were following my story and waiting for it next chapter.My new story has been made available by my editor recently, Chasing His Contracted Wife. Real updates would start next month while I also try to complete my ongoing books. Looking forward to seeing you read my next books.I hope you loved Scarlett and Liam's story and also, Willow and Marshall's story. Thanks for coming this far with me.Thank you so much.
There was no going back now. It's been six years since she agreed to drop all of her past behind and focus on her future which happened to be Marshall. Six fucking years since she let Scarlett convince her to follow her heart and be with Marshall and Marshall had never done anything to make her regret it.It was really funny how she was the one they convinced and pushed Scarlett to return back to Liam and years later, Scarlett did that same thing for her. She learned one lesson from this: it was wonderful to have good friends around that would push you to keep going when you wanted to give up. It was great to also be a good friend.Her life with Marshall has been filled with laughter, love, joy and different adventures. That night she had taken the bold step to first mark Marshall as hers was the first and not the last wonderful night she's had. The both of them had turned off their phones and spent the next three days just being together and getting to know more of each other. Ther
“You smelt and tracked me down? But I was with Harrison back then and second chances mates can never identify or smell each other while they are still with their first mate except after rejection or the other dies. If you really smelt me, why didn't I do the same?” A tiny frown creased Willow's brows as she thought back to the day Marshall first walked up to her in the garden. He had said that she was “Her”. She had thought he was referring to her being Harrison's mate, she thought wrong.This time, Willow let go of her fork, ignoring Marshall's disapproving look as she folded her hands across her chest.Marshall's eyes darted from her face to the fork, “You should eat.”“I need answers. I will eat when I've gotten them.” how did he know back then and she didn't?Marshall looked ready to argue but he thought better about it. “Fine. I'm not a regular werewolf like you and…”Willow interrupted him and asked the question that had been on her mind for the longest time, “What are you?” “
Willow squirmed in her seat and her hand shook as she carried food to her mouth. After the deep toe curling kiss Marshall gave her at the door after convincing her to stay with him in the beach house for the next three days, they moved to the patio at the back of the beach house where their dinner was waiting for them. According to Marshall, there was an older woman in the house who prepared the food and set out the table. She left the moment he notified her that they were close to give them their privacy.Since they sat down to eat, Marshall had not taken his eyes off her. Not even when he was eating or reaching for his glass of wine. At first, she thought he would take his eyes off her but after eating a little of his food and emptying his glass of wine, he did not move to pour out more for himself. Instead, he set the glass and his fork down and placed his full attention on her, causing her to be uncomfortable.When Willow couldn't take it anymore and felt like he was purposely doin
“We are here."By the time they got to their destination, Marshall had made her come twice. Her body was shaking in pleasure and her mind was lost in ecstasy, he had to repeat himself.“We are here,” his voice was firmer, dragging her out of the haze she was in.Willow stiffened and her eyes that were closed in pleasure snapped open and she brought down her head that had been titled back to look out of the window as she tried to hard her red cheeks. She was surprised at the fact that he was speaking so calmly after making her come twice in a roll. He did all this while driving them to wherever it was that he was taking her to dinner. The man deserved a round of applause. She could feel her wolf just below the surface, fighting to be let out but Willow shoved her back down. Her wolf was super excited, she might push Willow to jump Marshall inside the car and it would just be so shameful when her wolf retreats later and leaves her alone. It wouldn't be so bad, they were mates after al
Willow halted in her steps as she came out of the pack house and found Marshall leaning against the hood of his car right outside the building. He has his hands shoved inside his pants pocket and his eyes that have been staring at the floor immediately looked up at her as if he smelt her and knew that she was standing there — maybe he did.“Why did you stop?” Scarlett who was beside her whispered.Willow cleared her throat but did not take her eyes off Marshall to look at her friend who she knew must be wearing a teasing expression right now, “Nothing,” she began to move after that. Taking the stairs one after the order, all her attention focused on putting one leg in front of the order and now dropping to the ground in a puddle because of the way Marshall was staring at her as she walked up to him.“Enjoy yourself and don't come back. Make babies, I'm old enough to be an aunty.” Scarlett who has stopped walking with Willow raised her voice and said just before Willow heard her recedi
Willow grumbled under her breath as she dragged herself up from the bed and walked to the door to throw it open. After Scarlett left, she spent a few minutes or hours just staring at the ceiling with her kind roaming here and there, just thinking until she fell asleep. Now, she was woken up by loud knocks on her door. If she was not in the pack house, she would have known that it was one of the maids in the house, she just hoped that it was not about work. She risked a glance at the wall clock and saw that it was evening already. In an hour or two, it would be dark outside.Willow ran her hands through her hair to arrange it. She did it subconsciously and caught herself immediately. Why had she done that? It was just one of the workers knocking or even Scarlett so why would she try to arrange her appearance? No, she was not hoping that it was Marshall.“Oh, yes you are.” Her wolf taunted.“No, I'm not.” Willow snapped as she reached for the door knob.“I won't judge.” Her wolf snicker
Willow frowned, “Then what would you say?”“Well,” Scarlett gave a little shrug of her shoulder as she looked away, “He wanted to see you so he is here.”“And I would say you are lying, Scarlett.” Willow said as she shot Scarlett a hard glare.Scarlett looked at her then, “Does it really matter how he got here, Willow? What matters is that he is here and he is your second chance mate. Even if I was not expecting it, it's a bonus point. This is your opportunity, Willow. Your opportunity to find happiness. Let go of your past and embrace your future.”“He has a fucking chosen mate, Scarlett. Like Harrison, he already has a mate so there is no embracing of the future here.” Willow's voice shook at the end and she felt pressure at the back of her eyes.Scarlett frowned at her, “What mate are we talking about here?”“Don't act like you don't know the mate I'm talking about. Rumi!” Willow snapped, her heart twisting with pain.“So you were really serious when you said you were going to be s
Willow's heartbeat immediately picked up speed and began to beat wild and fast against her ribcage. Her heart was threatening to burst and spill out of her chest. Willow has only felt like this once in her life and that was the day she met Harrison and found out that he was her mate and the person she was destined to love and be with for the rest of her life. She was feeling like that again because of one person and it was this unknown alpha who was sitting with his back to her and talking to Liam.Willow had the urge to run up to him and curl up into his arms, sniff his scent and claim him as hers but she squeezed her hands into fists and held herself back. No way in hell was she going to be taking in a second chance mate, not after everything that happened between her and Harrison. She was going to move on with her life like she was already doing without looking back. Who knows if this alpha already have a mate too? Wolf forced her wolf down and warned her to behave.Willow knew th
