SCARLETT

Blake’s arm remained roped through mine when we finally made it past the sea of paparazzi and into the main hall.

The live streaming shows I’d watched of the Moxie fundraiser did it no justice. It was the same venue every year, but some of the places I’d just spotted have never been shown on camera, the entire place was exquisite and flowing with rich people and celebrities I’d never dreamed of seeing this close.

“Blake Vaughn? Who would’ve thought!” A woman in her thirties that could pass as a teenager because of her skimpy dress greeted Blake, ogling him openly.

“Mrs. Chauncey, what a lovely surprise,” he shook her hand then turned to me, “this is Scarlett, a new addition to our family and my esteemed date for the night.”

I reached out to shake her and she scrutinized me with a razor gaze while only shaking the tip of my red manicured nails.

She talked Blake’s ear off, touching his chest at intervals and laughing like he was a stage clown when he barely said anything funny.

    SCARLETTMy initial shock morphed into mind numbing panic when he remained quiet.I had to get out of the restroom before he got any closer to me, but I didn't know how that’d be possible. Still, I took a few cautious steps back, and summoned all my courage to challenge him.“What're you doing here? Last time I checked, it's the ladies restroom,” I put on a bold face despite the chill turning my spine into ice.He ran a hand through his sleek hair and some strands covered his brow making him look like a model straight of a vogue magazine.“You should know the answer to that,” he looked me over like a piece of meat, but the anger that was always in his eyes was present, “seeing as you came in looking a slut begging to be fucked.”It shouldn't have, but his words sent a spark right to my core.“What's it with you and thinking that everything I do revolves around you?” I hissed, I couldn't let him catch on to the fact that his dirty words stirred me.He didn't answer, he just watched me

    SCARLETTShame became anger, and my eyes suddenly darted at the person whose fault my current predicament was.Alex.“I can’t go back in because your scent is all over me, thank you,” I blurted angrily, my teeth gritted in annoyance.An amused look danced in his eyes as he unlocked the latch, looking sinfully handsome and put together despite having turned me into a whimpering mess mere seconds ago.“Why’re you so scared of people finding out about your true self? Don't you get sick of playing pretend?” his only pleasure was derived from taunting me, I hated it, “you're not fooling anyone, anyways.”I was so pissed that I could feel smoke coming out of my ears as I glared at him. But before I could think up a retort, he’d walked out the door and slammed it shut like he didn't care for my response.“Ugh!!!” I groaned angrily as I thought of a way out.There was no way I could return to the event reeking of Alex like we’d been merged, flesh and blood. Yeah, no fucking way!I dragged in

  • ENTANGLED WITH HER ALPHA STEPBROTHERS   55: Auctioneed for the highest price

    SCARLETTBlake and I downed glass after glass of champagne while the auctioneer briefed us on what would happen next.From the little my tipsy brain gathered, the next phase of the event was the auction for ladies. At first, it sounds like we’d be sold out, but we were assured that it was nothing remotely close to that since the charity was for a good cause.Then, all the ladies were torn away from their dates and ushered into a dimly lit hall while the men remained outside.“Of course she’d rather stand all the way over there rather than be seen with us,” Maeve hissed beside me and rolled her eyes.When I followed her gaze, I realized that it was planted on Ashley who was by herself in a corner of the room and typing away on her phone. I didn’t dignify Maeve’s spiteful words with a response, but I finally realized why she’d been quiet since we were separated from the Vaughn brothers.It’s because she’d been too busy staring at Ashley, and now that I took a good look at the gaze she p

    SCARLETTThe auctions for the ladies was over in the next ten minutes, and no one else got a quarter of the bids I received. The lights went out and we were led towards the next hall where the auction for artworks was meant to take place and I immediately started to scan the entire place for Blake, I needed to share the shock pulsing through me with someone else.“Hey star girl,” a tap on my shoulder indicated that Blake had beaten me to the chase and found me first.He was holding two glasses of red wine and I quickly reached for one and gobbled about half of the contents before letting out a sigh.“Thank you, I needed that,” I chuckled softly when he smiled and nodded, “I still feel like that auction was a dream and I needed something to drag me back to reality.”“It wasn’t a dream, sweetheart, you’re definitely worth every dime that was auctioned for you,” he was looking at me like he believed every word he’d just uttered with an unwavering conviction.Maybe it was the liquor, but

    SCARLETTThe chipper sound of my alarm woke me the next morning at 8am.As soon as I got off the bed, all sorts of groggy and blurred memories from the Moxie fundraiser came flooding in. Alex’s hands pushing me against the sink and fucking me senseless. Blake giving butterflies from the start to end of the day. Being auctioned at a hundred and fifty fucking million dollars.And then, Blake again…But the foremost thought in my mind was of how much I’d changed ever since i moved in with the Vaughn brothers. There’d been drastic changes to my mentality, body and personality that I couldn't wrap my head around.My body has felt things I never thought were possible, in urges and in the literal sense. I’ve let myself shamelessly indulge in things I’d have turned a judging eye at and I couldn't say I hadn't enjoyed them.Especially that kiss with Blake last night.That was easily the best one I’ve ever shared with anyone. The way his hands roamed about my body like never wanted to let go of

    LOGANA whiff of lavender woke me, and when I looked down at the precious woman in my arms, I couldn’t help but smile broadly.After a hectic day at the office and the bustle of the Moxie fundraiser, I decided that the best way for us both to get a good night’s rest would be to sleep in each other’s arms so we headed back to Ashley’s apartment after the event.I hadn’t slept this well in forever, and it seemed the same could be said for Ashley.Normally, she’d have sent me a good morning text at this time, but now she was sleeping soundly in my arms like she didn’t have a single care in the world.Even asleep, she was a marvelous sight. Her ginger hair looked stunning scattered all around her, the sunlight peeking through the window made her freckled nose appear unbelievably adorable, her thick lashes framed her gorgeous eyes and her plump rosy lips enthralled me as she parted them while snoring lightly.The more I stared, the more I realized the unbreakable hold she had on my heart.

    SCARLETTMom and Alpha Vaughn’s sudden arrival was more of an impromptu decision than one mom agreed to.From mom’s rant about their honeymoon being cut short, I gathered that they had to halt their plans and head back because he had an impromptu pack matter to attend to, she didn’t give me any details as to what it entailed.One one hand, I hoped that their arrival would create a much needed buffer between me and the Vaughn brothers and stop me from making any foolish decisions around them. On the other hand, I wasn’t so thrilled that my mom could barge into my room anytime and engage me in unwanted girl talk.Just like she was doing right now.“All of these would look amazingggg on you!” she handed me a bundle of knitted sweaters, and I was truly surprised that she remembered I liked them.She even got them in all my favorite colors and that completely warmed my heart.“Thank you mom, they’re really lovely,” I said while admiring how much younger she looked since they returned.What

    ALEXI couldn't believe my ears.Somehow, I’d stumbled on the most awkward conversation while walking past Scarlett’s room earlier today. I could've left, but I leaned against the railing and tuned into the conversation, mostly to gather more proof that I was right about her and her mother’s wretched intentions.But instead, I ended up confused.When her mother suggested that she meet up with Micheal, I’d expected her to immediately jump at the offer. Especially because he was one of the most eligible bachelors that doubled as a billionaire and women were constantly dying for a chance to meet him. Even Maeve had a fleeting obsession with him before we started fucking.So, it was completely mind boggling that Scarlett hadn't heard of him before and even after her mother spelt out what he was worth, she still refused to meet with him.None of it made sense, mostly because her mother made her gold digging personality very obvious in the way she flaunted dad’s riches here and there.

    SCARLETT “How many minutes apart are your contractions?” “Can you feel the pups crowning already?” “Should I get the midwives?” My husbands circled around me like vultures readying their prey, asking me a million and one questions like I was not as clueless about childbirth as they were. They’d read a library worth of childbirth and parenting books from the moment I found out I was pregnant and yet they were as nervous as a completely ignorant parent would be. “Stop hovering over her, please,” Hyacinth sighed and rolled her eyes as she walked into the birthing room, “the birthing process will begin any moment and I’ll need you all to either be quiet and or absent so I can get to work.” They all murmured amongst each other before finally falling quiet. “I’m going to give you a mild anesthetic so you don’t feel a thing and sleep through it, alright?” she turned to me with a kind smile and I nodded. I felt nerves already wrecking my body upon hearing that, I was reminded of the c

    LOGANThree long yet amazing months went by and the D-day finally arrived. I couldn’t believe that I was about to be married to Scarlett and it seemed that neither Blake nor Alex could believe it seeing how nervous they were while getting dressed for the ceremony. We’d watched her become the best version of herself in the last three months and judging from all the power and potential she radiated, even three Vaughn men might not be enough of a match for her. Still, I was beyond elated to see what a marriage as unique as ours had in store for us in the coming years. And for the rest of our lives. “I still can’t figure this shit out!” Blake whined as he wrongly knotted his tie for the hundredth time and Alex and I laughed at him. “If you’re too nervous to knot your tie, maybe you should just sit out the wedding ceremony,” Alex teased him. “Yeah, it’s a small wedding anyways. We’ll just add your name to the marriage certificate and crop you into the pictures for the wedding album,” I

    SCARLETTWe did it? “Yeah, we fucking did it,” Logan’s excited response made me realize that I’d asked that question out loud instead of in my head as I’d assumed. “And that’s only because you had the balls to put yourself on the line when we weren’t willing to take that risk,” Alex added, flipping a pancake effortlessly with a slight tilt of the pan. Inwardly, I rolled my eyes at his stellar skills, wondering how he was able to pull that off when I couldn’t even do it while carefully using a frying spoon. “I’m going to take a wild guess and say that you’re no longer focused on our victory over the Shahato and you’re now hating on everyone that can make a proper pancake unlike you,” Blake said through a chuckle. I narrowed my eyes at him, picking a grape off my plate and throwing it at his head for teasing me. “Ow!” he exclaimed when it hit his forehead. “Serves you right,” I grinned before taking a generous bite of my sandwich. That led to back and forth banter, and as much a

    SCARLETTAgain, they’d come to my rescue at the perfect moment.Unlike the last time, I refused to lose faith in them, so seeing them was more than an answered prayer, it was the confirmation of a truth I’d been steadfastly holding unto.I felt relief course through my entire body as the army pounced on the Shahato warriors, shifting to their wolf form and ripping our enemies apart before they had the chance to rejoice over my burnt corpse.Suddenly, the regret I felt when I was thrown into the portal that brought me here washed away and I was pleased with myself for following through with the baiting plan that brought us this far. I had a feeling that after this battle, we’d finally know peace and harmony instead of the chaos and despair we’d had to endure for months now.I was so lost in imagining a time of calm and quiet that I even forgot that fire was slowly creeping towards me as the altar behind me burnt away. It was when I smelt thick fumes suffocating me that I looked behind

    LOGANI still felt shitty and stupid for how immature I’d acted when Scarlett disappeared behind that godforsaken portal.Blake didn’t deserve to be choked so heartlessly when all he did was keep me from breaking my foot to pieces—because believe me, that was my intention when I started kicking that rock. Yet, he’d stopped me from hurting myself foolishly and I repaid him like an absolute asshole.I knew I’d apologized, but it didn’t seem enough so I made a mental note in the back of my mind to make it up to him somehow after we rescued Scarlett.“Guys! Over here! Quickly!” Hyacinth called out to me and my brothers and we rushed to where she was bent over on the floor and holding a glass shard.“What did you find? Please give us some good news,” Alex practically begged as he crouched beside her.“Their sorcerer must’ve mistakenly dropped this while closing the portal in a hurry, and now I know exactly where those bastards took her,” she jumped to her feet and Alex followed suit.“Wher

    ALEXFan–fucking–tastic!This bloody plan blew up in our faces just like I’d predicted it would. Those cunning bastards just zapped our mate through a portal and I couldn’t feel her through the bond from the moment they disappeared into it.I guessed that neither Blake nor Logan could feel her either because they equally seemed like they were going mad.“Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck this!” Logan yelled on the top of his voice while kicking a rock repeatedly until I heard a toe snap and blood started to ooze from his boot.That didn’t stop him though, he kept spitting profanities and angrily kicking the rock until Blake ran towards him and dragged him away from the rock and set him on the floor.“What the hell is wrong with you, Logan? How the hell does that fix shit!?” Blake leaned forward, placing his hands on both knees while screaming right into Logan’s face.Instead od answering, Logan reached out and gripped Blake’s neck and started to twist it with rage burning in his eyes.

    SCARLETTThe morning of the full moon had finally arrived, and just like everyone else, I hoped that things went according to plans.None of us could handle any surprises because the chances of the plan going smoothly hinged on us being in complete control. To ensure that nothing went wrong, Hyacinth got a team of sorcerers to cast truth spells on the army in a bid to uncover any hidden spies from the Shahatos.Once we confirmed that every warrior was loyal to us, we finally let them in on the plan for the first time since we’d hatched it.Afterwards, Blake and Alex guided them through morning drills and helped them memorize the parts of the plan they were instrumental to, Logan and I kept Hyacinth company while she and her group of sorcerers did a location spell.Unlike the former location spells they’d casted to locate me when I was captured, this was much more likely to work because she’d used the blood of the prisoners that were recently executed. She assured us that with a team o

    SCARLETTOnce again, Hyacinth had to come to our aid.We rushed Alex home and called her to come by the house as soon as possible. After ten minutes that felt like an eternity, she finally arrived and got to work on speeding up his healing. She explained that he invested wolfsbane and that’s why he wasn’t healing even after Blake and Logan cleaned and bandaged his wounds properly as soon as we got home.Hyacinth fed him some potions, but when they didn’t work, she told us that the wolfsbane had been in his system for far too long so she would need a powerful spell to magically detox him of it so his wolf could heal.While she convened with the powers that be on the required spell for such a crucial procedure, I paced the entire room worriedly while saying prayers to the moon goddess and ignoring the words of comfort being thrown my way from Logan and Blake.For some reason, I still felt fractions of the fear and pain I felt when I thought he was going to take his life just to prove a

    SCARLETTAn hour passed and I immediately rallied Logan and Blake into the car to go in search of Alex. The longer we went without being able to contact or find him, the more I regretted listening to Logan and Blake instead of my wolf.And now because of my negligence, we were all worried out of our minds for Alex.It was almost nightfall and neither of us could reach or find him still. And believe me, we’d tried everything we could possibly think of. Logan tried to track his phone but his men found it dumped in a roadside bin and had no other means of tracing where he went from there because the traffic cams in that area were all busted.After that dead end, we’d all gone around the city in search of him but we couldn’t pick up his scent talk less of find his car.Normally, we’d have assumed that he was just somewhere blowing off steam and stayed home to wait on him. But ever since the marking ritual, we had a much stronger bond and could feel each other’s emotions and a while ago we
