“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
“I will be needing your help with something, alpha Liam"Liam, who was on the phone the alpha of another pack, alpha Cameron, was surprised to hear the man say that he would be needing his help. Alpha Cameron was the alpha of another pack that was equally as big as his. For the man to ask for his help, the situation must really be bigger than him; out of his control. “What do you need my help for?" He and Cameron were on good terms so he would help if he could as he might also need the man's help too to deal with Henry and Olivia's problem.“My men are in your city" “My city?"“Yes, the one you are in now and they would need your men's assistant"“For what?" Liam was surprised to hear that Cameron was sending his wolves down to where he was.“People already know that you have a lot of problem that you are dealing with right now so we did not inform you” “Problems?” Liam already knew that new must have gotten out but what exactly had the other packs heard? "Inform me about what?" Wh
Scarlett groaned as she struggled to open her heavy eyelids. Her head was banging with headache, her body was hot and she felt weak all over. She knew that she was lying on her back but it felt like that bed was in a slant position. The room felt cold, like she was in a morgue. Did she have another episode of migraine and lost consciousness? Scarlett tried to bring up her hand to her head but she couldn't move her hand; she was bound with…? Her eyes popped open and she tried to sit up but she couldn't move her head either. What the hell was going on with her? She struggled with the chain in her hands but they refused to budge. There was also a chain across her forehead that was holding her head to the bed. Her legs were in shackles too. Her eyes filtered through the room; the portion she could see from her position and it did not look like where she had been to before. The place looked like one of those science labs she had seen in a movie. Why was she here and why was she chained t
Scarlett lost consciousness due to doctor Lindsay choking her, the pains of having something hot poking different parts of her stomach and all the screaming she did. But before she did that, she made sure to see Jordan, hear his cry and was sure that he was safely in his father's arms before she allowed the darkness that was beckoning onto her to swallow her whole. When she woke up much later, she was in the familiar room at the werewolves hospital where she spent a few days after Liam nearly made her have a miscarriage. And the nurse's face was also familiar, nurse Annable. The first person she asked nurse Annabel about was Jordan. Scarlett was scared to sit up after the nurse left to bring her baby because of the injury on her stomach that was inflicted upon her by doctor Lindsay but she could not feel anything. The pains around her stomach had disappeared. Scarlett was surprised so she sat up to examine her body and nothing was there. If she was not in the hospital, she would ha
“How is Alpha Cameron involved in all of these?" Scarlett asked with a frown. "If not for him, I wouldn't have been able to find you and Jordan so quickly. In fact, I might never even find you both”"What do you mean?” He was talking too slowly for her peace of mind. Why can't he just explain everything at once, did she need to ask him first? "They have been looking for doctor Lindsay and his group for years” Liam quickly went on to explain everything to Scarlett; from how alpha Cameron called to ask for his help to how he received the call from James. He has wanted to leave alpha Cameron to solve his problems by himself while he goes on to look for Scarlett and Jordan but after telling Cameron about it, the alpha told him that there was no need to find Scarlett and Jordan because he knew where they were; they must be with these mad doctors.It was not the first time they were picking their victims from a public place. In fact, it was their signature style. They used it to alert th
Scarlett was relaxed all the way back to the pack. It wasn't until she was told to put on her seatbelt for landing that her heart began to beat fast. She was back to the place of her glory and shame. She wondered how the people would react once they found out that she was not dead but was alive and had even given birth to the alpha's child and their future alpha. The people will surely accept her child because Liam has; the people will always go with anything Liam choses. Willow also came back with her since the girl did not return with Aaron. Scarlett stopped for a while to inhale deeply, breathing in the scent of her pack that was different from the one in the human world before getting into the car with Jordan and Willow. She did not bring many things with her. She only brought Jordan's belongings and few of hers, especially all the things Alex bought for her.Her father's men were shocked to see her. They were frozen for a long time before they rushed inside to call her father.
Dear wonderful readers of mine,If you are seeing this that only means you read this book until the end. I just want to tell you how great you are for reading my story and how much I appreciate it. So many things happened while creating this story and I never thought I would complete it, but I did and it was only possible because I knew you were following my story and waiting for it next chapter.My new story has been made available by my editor recently, Chasing His Contracted Wife. Real updates would start next month while I also try to complete my ongoing books. 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
