She cried. Scarlett could not believe everything she just heard. Willow had gone out to spend time with Felicia and Jordan was sleeping when Liam sent James to call her to his study.The silence was suffocating, the air was filled with tension, and she felt uncomfortable with the way her father and Liam were watching her as she sat down.“Okay, what's going on?” She asked Liam, but her eyes were on her father. “There are so many things you need to know, things we need to tell you that we've been…” Aaron shook his head, "Not we but him alone” he pointed at Liam, “Has been hiding us. He just told me now, so we have to tell you too” “Okay…” she took her eyes off her father and looked at Liam. Her palms became sweaty immediately, her eyes met his. He looked uncomfortable and too serious. “What's it that you want to tell me?” “You have a wolf, Scarlett” Liam said, straight to the point as he saw no need in beating around the bush. Scarlett froze, but then she burst into loud mocking la
She could still remember how she and her father had made plans about them running in their wolf form together once she got her wolf. How they would play catch and then her father would help her train her wolf to be strong. All of these, they couldn't do because of Olivia and her father.Olivia was just a year older than her so she wondered how Olivia got such an evil mind to start poisoning her at the age of eighteen. Must be her father pushing her into doing all these evil deeds. "Don't cry, Scarlett" Aaron wrapped his arms around Scarlett to console her even as tears brimmed under his closed eyelids. Scarlett was shaking her head. Not only her dreams of becoming Luna were destroyed, her father's dream of running with her in the woods and of training her, of seeing his only child become a full-fledged wolf was also ruined.Aaron held Scarlett as she cried and cried until there were no more tears in her eyes. He pushed her back to stare at her red face, "it's okay to cry for the pas
Alex was happy to see her. After telling her father that she wanted him to meet Alex before he returned back to the pack, she did not wait for his response before moving to pick her phone to call Alex.She told Alex that she wanted him to meet her father, and he was eager. He had been waiting for her call for the longest time since she asked him to stay away for a while. He had been worried that Liam was holding her and her baby hostage. She took Jordan with her, and they walked past Liam on their way out. Scarlet walked past him without even a backward glance. She could feel his eyes boring a hole in her head as her father stopped to talk to him or to tell him where they were headed. “I told him that we are going to meet Alex and I think he is worried that you want to get together with Alex.” her father told her as he joined her in the car with James.“He shouldn't be. After all, he already ruined me for any man that would come”“Scarlett,” her father gasped in shock, “You cannot s
Alex and her father became friends so fast that Scarlett was quickly forgotten. They had so many things they both liked, and they also bonded over Jordan who, by now, had been handed over to Alex by her father when he noticed Alex's lingering gaze on the baby.“His name is Jordan?”Alex's head that was bent as he played with the baby came up so fast. A deep frown was etched on his face, “Jordan?” He could vividly remember that the name Jordan was among the names Liam suggested to Scarlett, but she refused. He had been hoping that he would be the one to name the baby but guess the father will always win in the end. “Yes, Jordan. My father came up with the name” Scarlett responded.The frown disappeared quickly to be replaced by a bright smile, “Your father did? It's a nice name”Aaron, who noticed the whole change of expression on Alex, smiled, but it was a sad one. It was clear as day that Alex was in love with his daughter, his entire actions gave him away; Alex gave Scarlett his un
“Dad” Scarlett sniffed as she grabbed her father in a hug. He was returning this morning to the pack, and Scarlett felt like gathering her and Jordan's things so that they could go with him.“Hey,” Aaron sighed as he rubbed her back. She'd been crying since she woke up to help him pack his things. “You could just come back to the pack, then all of this will jot have to happen. We won't have to say goodbyes or be apart.” “Dad, you know that's not going to happen”“And you know that you can't stay here forever. You will have to come back to him eventually. Even if not for your sake, then for Jordan, because he is an alpha that needs to familiarize himself with the werewolf world and to also start his training early.”Scarlett pushed herself away from her father. She met his eyes with her cold ones, the tears had immediately dried up at his words, “I Will be damned before I let my innocent child go back to the corrupt pack.”Aaron shook his head with a pitiful smile, “Wake up from your
They called her selfish. She could understand it if only Liam did that but her father also called her selfish too. How could he not understand her pain and fear?The same place she was supposed to be queen was here she was humiliated and shamefully thrown out of. The same people who were supposed to be under her, laughed at her predicament and mourned her death while she was still alive.If she was to go back to Liam's pack, what would she return as? A normal werewolf or the mother of the future alpha? What was she to do with her life when she returned back? Her life's purpose had always been to be the queen Luna, but that was not possible anymore so what was she to do then? Go back to college and complete her degree then look for a job or try to find her mate since she was going to get her wolf back? If she decides to stay back and have Liam make her work in the werewolf's facility, she would not see her father or be with her son. If Liam selected someone else to be his Luna which s
“You can't go outside, Miss Scarlett” one of the men politely told her as he stepped in front of her to block her way.Scarlett recognized him as one of the men who stopped her from going after her father this morning. Not only that, he looked like the same man that handed her the blanket and little food and money liam asked for her given at the packs border after he banished her. Scarlett glared at him, “Get out of the way while I'm still being nice” Her voice was so cold, it could freeze one's heart but the man remained in front of her without moving an inch.Scarlett heard the howl again and she did not know when she violently reached out and shoved the man standing in front of her to the side to rush to the door. Before the other guards could catch her, she was already twisting the doorknob, wrenching the door open and racing outside. Her heart stopped beating in her chest immediately her eyes fell on what was in front of her: it was Liam in a cage.It would have been better if h
“What do you mean by Liam issued an arrest warrant for my father and me?” Olivia asked with a red face. One of the maids in the mansion had come up to her room to inform her that Aaron was at the door, and he was demanding to see her. She was surprised because she knew that Aaron had been kept in seclusion by Liam, but Liam had taken him to the human world to meet Scarlett, no doubt. She was not informed that the man was back. These days, getting information has been hard because of that little slip up with Noah. One of the men who worked for her and was with Liam over there had suddenly disappeared, and she needed no one to tell her that he had been caught. She was not really bothered anyway there was still another man left, and he just sent her a message not long ago saying he had important information for her, but he would be needing something big from her. She wondered what the information could be, she was dying with curiosity because this was not the first time he was telling
