“She collected it without my knowledge" before Scarlett could interrupt him again, he quickly moved on to explain everything to her and by the time he was done, Scarlett had a stupefied expression.“So when you found out that she impregnated herself with your sperm, you did not get angry at her because you not only wanted an heir but also because of the witch's spell. Because of your power as an alpha, her spell did not work in making you pick Olivia because your wolf blatantly rejected but then it amplified your desires thereby making it hard for you to be angry with what Olivia did. Instead, you took out your anger on the man that told her and her father about your condition and the doctor that worked with them including the guards. What about her father? Why didn't you do anything to him?”Olivia's father was not pregnant for him so why spare him? "Because Olivia would have been unhappy and this could have result in so many things happening to my child”“You never stopped to thin
“Oh God, Collins, when did you get back?” Olivia asked as she ran up to hug the man.Collins froze as Olivia's soft body hit his hard one and his eyes widened, but soon, he wrapped his arms around her and his head dropped into her neck to sniff her familiar scent. His heart, which has been beating loudly in his chest since he told Liam he wanted to come back to visit his family, immediately slowed down as her sweet scent filled his nostrils. His hand remained by his side for only a few seconds before they came around Olivia. After a few minutes of hugging, Olivia pushed back from the man to stare at his face, “How did you get here?”“Aren't you happy to see me?” The man asked her back.“Of course I am… If I'm not, would I hug you like that?”“Fair point” he knew that for Olivia to hug him, she must have been so happy but not happy because of him but because she would be free. “But we need to leave now before they are alerted that the stone was touched” the man began to back away“Wh
“Oh no, oh no" Olivia cried as she grabbed her hair that was now a tangled mess around her face. “What?" Collins asked her“My father," she shouted, “Why didn't you remind me?" “Why didn't you remind yourself?" Collins was irritated at her lame attempt to try to push the fact that she immediately forgot about her father when she saw the opportunity to escape.He has thought long and hard about how to convince her to escape without saving her father. They would not have enough time to do it anyway and they would all be caught. It came off as a surprise albeit a welcoming one when she didn't even say anything about going to save her father. He had it in mind that the both of them would run far away and they would become rogues. They were strong together and they could gather other people along the way. The both of them would be the alpha and Luna and soon, they would build their own pack. They could meet with other alpha's from small packs, build relationships with them and they cou
“Olivia has escaped" Scarlett's hand that was taking food to her mouth paused with the spoon close to her mouth. "What do you mean by that?” She asked as she returned the spoon back to her plate without eating the food on it. Her and Liam were both having dinner together. He joined her at the table. “She escaped from her cell"“How?" He already told her just yesterday that Olivia and her father, including everyone working for them, had been arrested. “She has people working with her and her father. We already have them arrested but who would have known that one of my most trustworthy men was also working with her?”“Who is that?" She tried to think of any one of his men that would betray him she knew but came up empty."Collins. He was here on the night of the full moon and asked that he return to the pack to see his family. His body was found in the forest”“His body? What happened to him?"“His heart was pulled out from his chest. He must have had a fight with Olivia and she kill
Liam really took her acceptance to return back to his pack with Jordan seriously. He gave her a week to roundup everything she needed to do while he rounded up his.For two days, she was hesitant about calling Alex. She did not know how she should tell him that she was going back home. Where would she even tell him that her home was in case he told her that he wanted to visit?She had looked him in the eyes just a week ago and told him that she wouldn't be returning back with her father but that's exactly what she was doing a week later. Her father had opened her eyes to make her see and understand that Alex loved her, she wished that he hadn't because it would have been easier to leave him. Thinking about it now, Scarlett realized that she was foolish. How could she not have known that Alex was in love with her? He practically did everything to please her and showered her with all that love in the world but she thought it was friendship love? Damn, it was no wonder his family were
“Bubba" Scarlett laughed happily as she picked up her baby who was also laughing and playing around in his crib."Allow mama to dress you up, we are going to see Alex for the last time before we leave for home, where we truly belong.” Scarlett told Jordan as she took him to the bathroom to bathe him. Scarlett found that she was slow, she was taking her sweet time bathing Jordan. She might delay but she knew she would have to meet Alex in the end, there was no running away. Scarlett stepped out of her room when she was done with a fully dressed Jordan the same time Liam was stepping out of his room. “Where are you going?” Liam asked as he took in her clothes. She was dressed to go out and the same could be said for the chubby Jordan who was playing around in her arms.“We are going to see, Alex” before he could say anything, she told him, “No matter what, I need to see him and thank him for everything he did for both Jordan and I. I owe him that, I can't just leave town like this.”
“What's going on?" Scarlett yelled in fear as Alex threw himself over her, shielding both her and Jordan with his body.“I don't know,'' Alex yelled back, amidst the noise of screams as everyone ran off.“Get off from me, we need to leave here" all that was ringing in Scarlett's mind was that she should never have come out with Jordan, what if it was Olivia and Henry that sent these men? Alex did as Scarlett said but by then, Liam's men had surrounded them, their guns were out as they led Scarlett, Alex and Jordan safely to where James parked the car.From the side of her eyes, Scarlett could see the unknown gunmen heading in the direction opposite them and she knew that they were not there for her. These men were the ones she saw while talking to Alex but never paid them any attention. She thought that they might be there with another family; bodyguards. “What was that about?" Scarlett asked, her heart still beating fast in fear as she looked back at the park through the glass at t
Scarlett's eyes were red and swollen when she got home, Liam did not have to ask why because he knew already. He was anxiously pacing around at the front door when Scarlett came in with Jordan. His men had called to tell him about the shoot out and he hadn't been able to sit still, he wanted to see Scarlett and Jordan back in one piece before he could calm down.“You'll be fine, little cat" he murmured as she walked past him, climbed the stairs and went to shut herself inside her room. He couldn't console her so he left to his study where he also shut himself and called Noah to get updates about the people they had tried to sneak into Henry's pack.***The next day, Scarlett picked herself up and went to take her bath. She was not surprised to see that her eyes were red and swollen when she caught a glimpse of her face in the mirror. She spent the whole night crying but it is now time to face the reality of things.It was already late when Scarlett got dressed, put on some clean clot
