“Wait.. what?" Samuel spluttered in shock. He felt like he just heard wrongly or he was beginning to have ear problems so he asked her, “What did you just say?”Olivia stretched out her legs in front of her and repeated what she said earlier on because he asked her to, "I just said that I need you to help me poison Liam”“You want me to poison Liam, the alpha for you?”"What's hard to understand there? “ Olivia coldly asked when she felt like he was overreacting. “Everything" Samuel snapped, "Everything you have just said is damned hard to understand” how could she even ask him to poison Liam? How would he even do it? Why would she think of such? “It's either you poison Liam and make him weak so that in two weeks time he won't be able to appear before the elders where I would be killed or prepare to never see me again. I'm sure you will be happy when I die and you lose the last connection you have to your mate." She purposely added the last part because she knew that his mate was hi
“You know that making Liam weak still won't stop his soldiers from fighting back right?” when Henry frowned at her in confusion. Olivia explained, “I know his Gemma, Isaac so well and there is also Noah who I want to kill with my own hands. Those two are strong-headed men and with them alone, Liam's pack is in safe hands. If we are to succeed in this fight, we also need to get rid of them. With Liam weak, they can be thrown into pandemonium but still, they would fight back.”“What do you suggest we do, my love?”Olivia cocked her head to the side as she squinted at Henry. If she had not heard much about his intelligence and how he defeated other packs to make his pack become as big as it was now, she would have said he was a useless man bearing the title of alpha but she knew that he wanted to hear her opinion. He wanted her to destroy Liam in whichever way she wanted because of everything she told him he did to her which were all lies. Olivia felt her heart melt with love for him. H
Scarlett has been trying her best to avoid him after their near-sex two days ago but Liam was definitely not giving her the chance to withdraw into her shell.He was always with her; he maintained eye contact with her, brushed his hands against her anytime he walked past her. Always pressing a kiss to her lips after kissing Jordan's head at every opportunity he gets. He would place his hand at the back of her head to hold her still each time because she would always try to draw back. Everyone in the family took the news of them being mates too well, everyone was happy about it but they were yet to announce it to the public or the fact that Scarlett's son was Liam's.They were keeping everything under wraps until they were truly rid of Olivia and Henry. Liam even took over her training and asked her trainer to take a little break. Like now, they were all alone in his personal training room and he was coaching her on how to quickly change into her wolf so as not to experience too much
The room remained silent as they waited for Samuel to gather himself together and start talking. When even after a few minutes he had not said anything but was just shaking with his head bent, Liam cleared his throat, “Do you need us to give you more time to gather yourself together?”“Ah?" Samuel's head snapped up and when Liam's words registered in his head, he shook his head quickly, “No, I will talk now"“Okay" They waited another five minutes again and by then, they were all losing patience. Noah was about to snap and Scarlett noticed it. She quickly raised a hand and gestured at him to stop because she was going to be taking over the situation. Liam nodded at Noah to allow her do what she wanted as he relaxed back on his seat and stretched out his legs in front of him. He folded his hands across his chest and waited for Scarlett to take over the situation. He hated interrogation as he was a man of few words, he preferred to torture whatever information he needed out of his en
They took the wolfsbane and drugs from Samuel but left the money for him. He was to always update them with information through a new phone they got for him. He would go about his daily life like he always did in the past — from his training to his mate's grave — and he would also tell Olivia that their plan was a success and that he was able to bribe one of the kitchen staff who was greedy and wanted more money to live a luxurious life.Scarlett's wolf who they thought to be so playful turned serious all of a sudden and began to take her training with Liam seriously. For Olivia to believe them, Liam was not to step out of the house. Olivia might have someone else that she was getting information from or that she might have even given the same assignment she gave to Samuel, to the person. They were not willing to take any risk so they made sure to screen all of Liam's food before he digested any of it.Issac continued with training the soldiers like he has been doing for months while
“Tango what?" Scarlett asked as she began to struggle to be free from his hold. “Let me down!" She snapped when he held her tighter against his chest and refused to drop her.“No" Liam smirked as he stopped and leaned down to drop a kiss on her opened mouth. He was still shook from what he just witnessed. Noah and Jama? A witch and a wolf and they've been hiding it from him for years? It looked to him that Noah had been willing but Jama hadn't and that must have been the reason why Noah did not say anything; he wanted to pursue Jama himself and make him accept the bond. He won't be saying anything or asking any questions until they tell him. He was sure that they would do so now that they were together. Scarlett tore her mouth from his when she heard approaching footsteps and she doubled her struggle. He was carrying her princess style and while she was scared of falling, she was more scared of what the workers in the pack house would say or think if they saw her and Liam in such a
“The hell” Willow screamed in shock when she saw the mating mark on Scarlett's neck when she walked into her room to see her godson. Scarlett was rubbing at the mark and that was how Willow met her. She rushed up to push Scarlett's hair away from her neck so that she could see the mark well, “Please, tell me that this is real." Willow begged. Scarlett blushed red before she gently pushed Willow away and pulled her hair back over the mark but Willow was having none of it. She pushed the hair away again and dropped her head into Scarlett's neck to sniff the mark, “Really smells like the alpha. You are beginning to take on his scent" "Yeah” Scarlett murmured. She was already perceiving the change in her scent and she was liking it.After Liam marked her last night, the made love again but Scarlett preferred to say that he fucked her hard twice again, thoroughly marking every inch of her body to clear all the doubts from her mind and make her understand that they now belong together. “
The day came by faster than they expected. Just like that, time flew by quickly and they found themselves gearing up and preparing for battle.Two alphas from the ones that told Henry they would support him decided to change teams and alert Liam of Henry's plan. Henry could not be trusted and helping him become the alpha of the largest pack could come back to bite them in the butt. They have never been Henry's or Liam's supporters or friends, they were just neutral but they trusted such power with Liam more than they did with Henry. Liam, who had been having two minds about reaching out to alpha Cameron to ask for help —because he knew that the man was busy looking for how to unroot and wipe every knowledge the human had about werewolves alongside the elders — changed his mind when the two other alphas reached out to him. They decided to go after Henry two days before the two weeks Henry was supposed to attack him came. Scarlett refused to sit back and allow him to go to war alone.

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
