Scarlet released a deep sigh of relief as she finally put her baby to sleep and sat down. She brought her hand up to massage her aching head.As of late, she had been having migraines, but she always shrugged them off as she thought they were a result of staying up late and taking care of the baby. Just then the baby began crying again, Scarlet groaned and went back to attend to the little man. She carried him in her arms and started rocking him, but the baby kept on wailing louder and louder. “Shhh, shh.” She soothed, rocking the baby as she danced from one end of her room to another. Despite all her efforts, the baby kept on crying, and her head continued to throb even more. She played the songs Liam always played, but he kept crying. She had been told when she carried the baby to the hospital for postnatal that she had a colic baby. It was really frustrating and overwhelming taking care of her baby. When the crying became too much for her, Scarlett found herself taking out her
When the pain of the migraine became too much, Scarlett found herself sliding down to the bathroom floor and crying her eyes out. She missed her old life where she had her father and so many of her loved ones around her. She missed them dearly. After crying for a long time, she closed her eyes, waiting for the pain to subside. Crying won't solve anything, her baby needed her, so she had to be strong.After a while, the pain eventually subsided. Scarlett dragged herself from the bathroom floor. She had things she needed to get, and she wanted to leave the house for a while. It was becoming suffocating to be indoors every day. It has never been her thing. She felt like the walls of the house; the walls of her room and every other room were closing in on her. She needed to buy a few things for herself. Liam and Alex had provided everything the baby needed. When they asked her if there was something she needed, she told them no.She picked up her baby and put her in a baby carrier before
Nothing. According to the result of the test that the hospital sent to her, there was nothing wrong with her brain. They invited her to come over in a few days time when they can do another intensive test on her. With Liam gone again to whenever, Scarlett found herself holding her head over the sink in the bathroom for cold water to pour on it. When the pains became too much for her to bear, she went in search of James and asked him to help her get aspirin and some painkillers. When James got back with it, Scarlett specifically instructed him not to inform Liam about her sending him to get drugs for her. She wanted to handle everything herself.But, unfortunately, James immediately spilled the beans and told Liam when he got back home.Lima had a deep frown on his face as he walked into the overly quiet mansion, which was never quiet because of his son. The place felt eerily cold, like a morgue, and Lima found himself racing up the stairs to Scarlett's room. He was halfway up the st
Scarlett refused to stay in her hospital when we woke up, so she was immediately discharged as there was nothing found to be wrong with her. The doctor told Liam he would send the result of the test to him once it was out. Liam stayed around for the next two days, and Scarlett found she did not experience any sort of migraine. However, to her dismay, the pain immediately kicked in a little over thirty minutes of Liam stepping out of the house. She did not want to believe he was the reason the migraine disappeared for a few hours.In a moment of sheer desperation, Scarlett found herself on the brink of taking an overdose of painkillers, hoping that it would provide some relief from the excruciating pain. The thought of dulling the pain, even temporarily, consumed her mind. The weight of the pain became unbearable, and she longed for any form of respite.Feeling trapped and overwhelmed, Scarlett's emotions reached a boiling point. She couldn't contain the frustration and agony any long
Liam could not return to Scarlett without finding out how wolfsbane got into her body. The person who has been feeding Scarlett this wolfsbane must have access to an alpha. According to the estimated time the doctor gave him about when Scarlett started digesting it into her system, it was less than two weeks after he picked her to be his chosen Luna and mate. He wondered who this person in his pack that betrayed him and was working with another alpha was. He also wondered who this alpha was that decided to attack him through his chosen mate. What was this unknown alpha's plan? Liam asked Jama to add Noah to the call, and they all switched to video call. Immediately Noah's face appeared on Liam's screen and everything that had been going on was briefly explained to him, he said, “It's Olivia. It's her, I'm sure of it” Liam sighed as he tiredly massaged his forehead, “Noah, I know you don't like Olivia, but this is not a time to blindly throw accusations.” Noah shook his head, "You
“I see another witch” Jama said as he cocked his head to the side, his eyes still staring piercingly through the screen at Liam. “A witch?” Noah asked. “What do you mean by a witch?” Liam asked with a deep frown. “You've not been doing this because you wanted to do it, but because you were forced to do it” “What are you talking…?” Noah slammed his mouth shut when Liam shot him a hard glare that was telling him to shut up. “Let him speak,” Liam cautioned Noah. “It's really Olivia, it's her answer father's doings. Noah was correct with his analyses. Olivia was the one that fed Scarlett wolfsbane. She bribed the cook in Aaron's mansion, the cook is working with her. There is a dark web around you, Liam. I don't know how I missed this.” Jama brought his face really close to the screen and Liam just knew that if they were to be standing in front of each other, Jama would have grabbed his face. “The witch Olivia and her father are working with is a powerful one, almost as powerful as m
Liam did exactly as Jama told him to. He went back home to Scarlett and their baby and stayed beside them. The migraines persisted, but not to the point of making Scarlett scream or go unconscious again. There was a time Liam heard her crying for her father, and before he could change his mind, he found himself reaching for his phone and calling Noah to put Scarlett's father and her best friend on the plane. He wanted them to be in the human world the next day. Noah was not to tell them anything about where they were going or who they would be meeting until they got here and saw for themselves. He wanted Scarlett to be happy, and seeing her only family and best friend would make her smile. Even though they won't stop the migraine, they will be a good distraction for her and also help with the child. Liam wanted Scarlett for himself, and he knew that her father and Willow wouldn't want that for her after what he did, but he knew that when Scarlett got her wolf, no one would be able
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
