And just like that, Liam was ignored like an unwanted human in his own house. Scarlett ushered her father, who was carrying their son and Willow, inside the house, and they all headed straight for her room and the door slammed shut behind them. Liam stayed away for a while to give them privacy, give them time to catch up, and for Scarlett to explain how she survived after her banishment. Though he really wanted to hear the whole story of how she survived that forest, he knew for sure that he wouldn't hear it now but surely,he would one day, so he needed to be patient. But, it's been hours now and there was no movement from the room like any one of them was ready to come out of the room. He was getting anxious. Scarlett was meeting her father again after such a long time, he did not want her father to see her in pain. He should have waited for a while before bringing Aaron, but it was already too late to go back in time. Felicia came, and he knew that Scarlett must have called to te
“Fine, whatever you say. If you think you are a liar, then you are one” Liam rose to his full heights and stared down at her head, “Don't try to turn this on me, Scarlett. I only tried to do what I thought was right, I thought you would be happy, but if you are angry, then I can just send…” Scarlett was out of her seat and glaring up at him before he could complete his sentence, “You will what? Send them back?” She asked hotly.Liam cocked his head to the side as his eyes met her, “Yes, isn't that what you want?”“I never said you should send them back, stop acting dumb”In the next minute, Scarlett found herself plastered to the wall with Liam's hand wrapped around her neck like he wanted to choke her. His body pressed hers to the wall, and Scarlett felt like she couldn't breathe as his delicious scent wrapped around her.“You better keep your mouth shut, Scarlett because honest to the moon goddess I will…”“You will what?” In the face of his anger, she should wisely keep her mouth
The baby stayed with Liam for the night. He cried for most part, but Liam did not complain. He patiently took care of his son until it was day time. Scarlett was anxiously pacing outside his room when he opened his door. Her eyes were red and swollen. She must have cried the whole night and had trouble sleeping. She rushed over to them as he stepped out. She reached out to take the baby from him, but she stopped at the last moment and as if remembering what happened last night when she tried to get her baby, her hands dropped to her side.“Take him, I'm sure he wants to be with his mother” Liam pushed the baby towards Scarlett, and he felt a feeling of satisfaction settle in his chest when she smiled widely and collected the baby from him. After playing with the baby for a while, she hesitantly raised her face to look at him, “Thank you” Liam's mouth dropped open in shock, and before he could recover it to say anything, Scarlett had walked back into her room and slammed the door be
His cage has arrived. Liam was supposed to spend day and night with Scarlett and Jordan but it was going to be impossible because Jama had been able to convince his father to help them without getting anything in return and his father was asking that Liam return to the werewolf world. Jama’s father, Henry, wanted to see him because that was the only way he could locate the dark witch. They will be performing a ritual.Liam had tried to convince Henry to give him a little time, but Henry stubbornly refused. Henry also had a mission he was supposed to go on, he refused to allow Liam to delay him. Scarlet was still having her migraines and though they seemed to have reduced drastically, Liam was still afraid that once he left it would worsen.“I will be going back to the pack tomorrow,” Liam told Scarlett once he got back home that day. He watched as her face closed up, and she turned away from him after saying okay. Liam quickly stopped her before she could move away from him.He could
Liam told her that she might be asleep by the time he left for his pack in the morning, so Scarlett was surprised to see Liam standing in front of her room when she stepped out in the morning with a crying Jordan in her arms."Eh? I thought you were going back home today?" Scarlett asked him in surprise. She did not notice that she called his pack home but Liam definitely noticed and his eyes sparkled with happiness. Her words meant that she still saw his pack as her home, he couldn't be more happy."Change of plans. Something came up" he reached out a hand to take Jordan from her. "Something?" Scarlett asked as she handed the child over to him, "I'm not going to ask what it is" "But you are curious" Scarlett have a small shrug, "Yup, but still, I'm not going to ask"She walked past him and went downstairs to the kitchen. Jordan was hungry and she needed to feed him."We can have our talk today" Liam who followed her to the kitchen stood by the door as he bounced Jordan in his arm
Even though Aaron sat back down because of Liam's command, Liam could not keep his mouth shut or stop Aaron's eyes from glaring daggers at him“How did Olivia lay her hands on the wolfsbane, Liam?” Aaron pushed. He had once been Liam's father's beta and knew how the wolfsbane was kept, and the security measures involved in safeguarding it. Unless Liam handed it over to Olivia, she would never have laid hands on it. “On the full moon” “What full moon?” Aaron was getting impatient. He wanted to know everything. There were so many things that Liam was keeping from him. Recently, he has begun to withdraw from pack duties. Liam was now old enough to take over everything in the pack and do things without his help, but he was beginning to think that it was a mistake on his part, he should have still been actively involved in everything. “My migraine worsened, Uncle Aaron and I needed to take care so that I don't go berserk and destroy the pack. I got a silver cage and always ask Noah to p
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
