“You want to tell me about him? How you both met. You said you don't want him to know about his child. He must have hurt you a lot.”“Yes, he did hurt me a lot. We were together for over four years and then one day, he woke up and told me that he was dumping me for his other women because she was pregnant for him. She was carrying the child he had always wanted”.“Oh wow, that's just so great. Date a woman for four-year and then dump her because the mistress is pregnant" “Is that not what you are about to do too? You have been keeping Alana for years now. If you don't love her, why not let her go? You don't have to ruin one person before you can be happy”.Alex flinched, and he looked as if he had been gutted, but then, he nodded in agreement, “I guess I'm just like your man, but you are right, I need to take this up with Alana and my family. I can't keep holding her back. She is still young, so she can still get another man for herself. It would be so wrong of me to allow her to wai
She was pregnant. Liam still could not believe it. A day had passed since he met Scarlett, and he was still trying to wrap his mind around the fact that she not only quickly moved on from him, but she got pregnant. How did she survive that forest? How did she get to this town? From what he knew, Scarlett had never left their pack her whole life, so how was it possible?Humans have never trodden that forest because it belongs solely to the werewolf, and they protected the Territories with their life. It marked the boundary they shared with the humans, but they have never crossed it, not even during war.Was it her father's doing? Did he call people to pick her up? Her father has many contacts in the human world, so it couldn't be that hard. Even if he called a human to help him, none could get into the forest. It was not just because of the eerie feeling the forest gave, it was also because of how dark it was. It was also filled with dangerous wild animals. Scarlett was not looking ba
Alex got down from his car and buttoned it up. He shoved his hand into his pocket and stood there for a while, staring at the tall mansion that was his family house. It's been two days since he had that conversation with Scarlett, and he had been dreading coming to see his parents, but he could no longer wait. He had already called his father's secretary and was told that his father was at home.He wasn't sure of his mother, but his father would tell his mother about it if she wasn't around. He wanted to see them so that he could pour out his feelings. He had not only taken his time to arrange a long speech about how he had found another woman that his heart beat for; the right woman for him, he was also prepared to tell his parents that even if Alana's family wanted to stop doing business with them after the break up, they won't be affected beyond repair. He had calculated their losses and knew that they would recover with time. All he would have to do would be to bury himself in wo
“Mom, you shouldn't have invited them over, mom” Alex could not help complain.“What? But why?” his mother asked with a distraught expression. “They are not just anyone, they are family, and Alana has been complaining that you have refused to see her since she got back. Alex, I trained you better than this. Alana is your fiancé you should not treat her this way”“Mom, you know that I am always busy and this was supposed to be a family lunch. I have something important to discuss with the both of you privately”“Excuses, you are here now, so it's only right that you have lunch with them, so sit your ass down. We can talk about it during lunch”Even if he did not want to, he had no other choice than to sit down, albeit reluctantly. There was absolutely no way he could escape, he was so not looking forward to meeting Alana's parents, especially her mother."Ever heard of the word private before? I want to talk to you and dad and not you, dad and Alana's family" "Whatever it is, we can t
Had Scarlett thought that Liam would come back for her? Yes, she did. Has she expected that he wouldn't and that they would meet four days later in a small eatery where she went to satisfy her cravings? No, she didn't.Immediately her eyes went to him, Scarlett turned away and hurried out, but it was already too late. Liam had seen her even before she did, but he chose to take his eyes off her to see her reaction. She reacted just as he had expected; turned and walked out. Liam excused himself from the table where he was having lunch with a few humans and stood to go after her. She was walking out fast, but he was faster. A pregnant woman could not outrun him. “Scarlett” Liam called as he reached out to grab her elbow. Liam immediately froze when his hand came in contact with her skin, and he felt something move in his head. Not just something, it was his wolf.“What Liam?” Scarlett snapped as she whirled around to face him. She would have loved to slap his hand off her and run out
When was the last time he found something amusing and laughed like this or even felt alive? When his parents were alive? Liam could not actually remember and for the life of him, he was feeling very different. These last few months have been hell. Starting from when he found out that Olivia was pregnant to Scarlett not being able to get her wolf, him rejecting her and then the death of his baby and her banishment. He has not had any reason to laugh, especially when after all those charades, his wolf began to retreat from him, but he just laughed now, and it wasn't his usual laugh.He was not laughing in anger like he always did, but laughing wholeheartedly and happily because he found Scarlett's reaction funny. Liam watched Scarlett from behind as she angrily marched off. He watched the gentle sway of her hips as she moved. She has added weight, all in the right places because of her pregnancy, and she looked very feminine and soft. He snapped back to the present when he saw her wal
Did he make a mistake in the past by rejecting Scarlett and settling for Olivia? Did Scarlett really have a wolf, or were his eyes just playing tricks on him? His eyes might have been playing tricks on him, but his ears were not because he was hearing her scream the way every wolf did when they were going to turn into their wolf for the first time. Though, it had gone down. Now, she was just groaning and whimpering in pain. He lost his wolf after she left, he felt his wolf move in his head when he got close to her and now, Scarlett, who everyone thought had no wolf, was showing signs that they might have concluded too hastily. What does this mean for them? If she did not get her wolf months ago, then why was she getting it now that she was pregnant. She was pregnant, and her wolf was coming out?“No” Liam snapped and immediately carried her off the bed and out of the room. A pregnant woman was not supposed to change to her wolf, if not, she would lose the child. He knocked on the
By the time they got to the hospital, the whole car was overflowing with blood and Scarlett had lost consciousness again. Even without traffic and with how good of a driver Ryan was, they almost got into an accident multiple times as Liam kept slamming his hands against the back of Ryan's seat, urging him to drive faster. Liam could not sit down after Scarlett was rushed to be operated on. He found himself pacing to and fro the hospital's waiting room. He had the urge to follow her into the room, no nurse or doctor would be able to stop him as the alpha, but he knew that his presence would only pressure the doctors. Why was he this worried about Scarlett? The baby was not his, and he should be happy if she lost the child so that it would be easy to take her back with him, he couldn't wish that on her. He has seen first and foremost how a woman who lost her child could react from when Olivia lost her baby. She has nearly gone mad, and she was the one who asked for Scarlett to be ban
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
