Chapter 7: The change

last update Last Updated: 2025-01-14 22:11:14

The wedding preparations buzzed with a joyful energy that filled every corner of the house. Scarlett wasn't expecting the day to be that bright, all thanks to her friend, Elora, who was moving from one corner to another, making sure everything was perfect and in order. The floral scent of freshly delivered bouquets wafted through the air, mingling with the faint aroma of coffee brewing in the kitchen and a symphony of chaos and excitement. Dresses hung like ethereal clouds on wardrobe doors, while trays of makeup and hairpins sprawled across the countertops, ready to work their transformative magic.

While getting things ready, Elora's gaze fell on the bride, seated on a high-backed chair in her ivory lace gown, which draped carefully across her lap with the stylist behind her. Elora dropped the veil in her hand and walked up to her; she smiled and bent to her level, holding her hand and whispering words of calm.

Elora, dressed in a simple yet elegant bridesmaid dress, she exudes a quiet strength, her steady presence grounding the bride amidst the whirlwind. She reached out for a glass cup of water and passed it to her, watching her gulp it down while she gently brushed a stray tear from the bride's cheek.

"You've got this," she said softly, her voice a balm against the rising tide of jitters. "Everything is perfect, and so are you."

Scarlett dropped the cup from her lips and smiled as she passed it back to her friend. They stared at each other's eyes, her words caused Scarlett to smile, a genuine, radiant smile that banished her earlier doubt.

And together, they began to laugh at the minor mishaps—a missing shoe, a flower girl's tantrum—turning potential disasters into cherished memories. The room pulsed with love and camaraderie, a testament to the unshakable bond between the bride and her steadfast best friend. With Elora by her side, Scarlett got through the day of a rollercoaster of emotions, trying her best not to let the nonchalance of her father throughout the wedding process bother her even though she hoped it'd be different. She's used to him not wanting her around, blaming her for taking his wife ( her mother) away but she was wishing for some fatherly love still.

Elora was the only one Scarlett was able to look at with a smile as she walked down the aisle finally. Every time she looked at her father, her heart broke; even though she was the happiest in the hall, it felt like a fiery dream when they were finally tied together, and the person who caught the flower was Elora.

" I'm going to miss you", Scarlett said as she hugged Elora at the end of the wedding.

She chuckled, "Are you planning to never see me again just because you're now married?",

" I dare not",

" Better, you still have my wedding to prepare ",

" Yes, ma'am. "

The two of them laughed before entangling from each other.

" Congratulations Scarlett ".

They both turned to Misha and saw Karine and Cynthia beside her. Scarlett felt awkward as she stared at them but she wore a smile,

" Thanks so much for attending, I appreciate",

" You're welcome", Karine replied, " even though it was unbelievable, guess the goddess loves you", she eyed,

" I can't imagine you'll be mating with the alpha this night; so lovely," Cynthia's statement made Scarlett blush.

" Ohh . someone is blushing", Elora immediately took the opportunity to tease her.

Karine eyed her in disgust.

" I'm not blushing," she tried to conceal, looking away, " where's mum?" she asked, referring to Dora.

" Oh, she left early, she had some business to attend but not without dropping her gift and the congratulatory message",

" Aww, so sweet of her, I'll call and thank her myself",

" Sure",

" Ma'am", a man in a suit walked into the room just then, he said after calling, "It's time to leave ",

" We're leaving now?",

" Yes, my master is waiting for you outside".

Master? That's probably her husband. They guessed.

They hugged her before sending her off to her husband whom she walked out of the hall with, hand in hand, smiling sweetly at each other. He looked at her with so much love and admiration that filled her up and brightened her day even more.

The way he held her hand, she felt seen and not lonely like she would normally feel. The two of them approached the waiting Lamborghini outside the hall, and after waving at their guests, they hopped in and left.

" I'm jealous of her," Cynthia pouted, " they look so beautiful together",

" Yeah," Elora said with a smile as she watched the car vanish out of sight.

Scarlett curled her fingers into a ball, her heart racing in nervousness and uncomfortable with the unsettling silence between them in the car. She doesn't know what to say or what to do, and his silence is troubling her.

" Umm," she muttered under her breath, gathering her energy to break the unsettling silence, " you look good today."

She bit her lips immediately when she said that.

Damien smiled before turning to her, " I have to. For my beautiful bride".

She blushed, " thanks",

" And the wedding dress is stunning",

" Re.really? It was Elora that picked it for me".

Damien swallowed, " she has beautiful eyes",

" Yes she does", she replied proudly, " I'm going to miss her",

" Don't worry about that, she can visit the house anytime she wants and you can go visit her too",

" I can?",

" Sure, why not? "

Scarlett beamed.

" You're my woman, and I will do anything to make you happy. "

She looked into his eyes with so much love and happiness, her heart melted with gratitude, and her eyes got teary as he took her hands into his till they got to his mansion.

Scarlett strolled in behind him, and they were both welcomed by the blonde lady who, again, was wearing a scornful expression.

Before Scarlett wonders who she is so much, Damien introduces,

" Scarlett, this is my sister, Moraine and this man is my assistant, Luke ",

" Hi", Scarlett said awkwardly with a bow,

" You're welcome, Mrs. Scarlett, "Luke welcomed.

Mrs Scarlett, that sounds so new and a reminder that she's married.

" Thank you ", she replied.

Without saying any other thing, Damien walked off. Not knowing what to do or say, she went after him and together they entered a bright room full of his scent.

Her eyes scanned around the simple cream-colored room; a little sculpture of a wolf was the only art sitting in the room. Her mind anticipated him introducing the room as theirs, but he loosened his tie, pulled off his shirt, and grabbed his face towel before striding into the bathroom.

Scarlett stood in the middle of the room, once again, not knowing what to do. She could see the day getting dark from the window and her ears heard the shower running next.

" He's taking a shower", she mumbled, " is it that ..", she touched her chest and felt her heart racing so fast, her cheeks were flushed as she thought of them mating. Her heart nearly stopped when she heard the shower stopped.

" I'll also go and take a shower", she said nervously as soon as he came out of the bathroom wrapped in a white robe.

Before she could walk past him, his statement made her steps halt.

" You do not have manners",

" Eh?", She turned back at him,

" I hate sharing rooms, bathrooms, bedrooms",

" Oh, I'm sorry",

" Which is why I'm going to set some rules",

" Rules?",

" Are you deaf?".

His harshness and cold tone took Scarlett by surprise; it was like there was a change of personality from the bathroom.

" Don't eat at the same table with me, don't step into my room, don't enter the study room without my permission, make yourself invisible, especially when I'm around; failure to do so, you'll end up in the basement. It's as simple as that".

Scarlett's heart felt so heavy hearing his rules, " did I do something?", she stammered, " I'm so sorry if I did ",

" Stop apologizing, it's irritating",

" What then should I do? I don't know what I do wrong ",

" Stop questioning me and get out!", he fired,

" I should leave? I thought we were going to..mate..".

Damien scoffed, looking back at her, "Mate? With you? What makes you think I'll ever mate with you? ".

" Hm?",

" I would never imagine myself mating with you, not with fungi who shouldn't be born. Now get out!".

Scarlett's mouth hung open with thousands of needles stabbing her chest as he looked at her like she was some insignificant object.

    Scarlett's feet trembled as she walked down the stairs, her heart felt so heavy with aches that's suffocating. The light of her hope was extinguished within a second. Her body wanted to burst into laughter and screams." Why? Why? Why me?", she was still asking herself when she bumped into someone at the end of the stairs. She looked up with her teary eyes to see the blonde lady, Moraine." Good evening," she greeted with nothing but emptiness in her voice and then made walk away, but Moraine pulled her back roughly with her hair.Familiar with the situation and pain, Moraine was pulling her hair while her two friends stood behind her. The situation reminded her of Karine and her friends.She gasped at the irony, but Moraine pulled her hair harder, and this time it hurt her, and she yelped in pain."

    (The same night: The Divine realm) Rionaya smiled, enjoying the entertainment that had become consistent, the blissful moment that soothed her thoughts and mind, the serene atmosphere that hid away her longing to break the monotony. " Your Majesty! ", Eron's sudden call jolted her out of her peaceful embrace. She glared at him sharply, " Have you lost your senses? What makes you startle me like that?", " I'm sorry my lord, it's very urgent". She rolled her eyes and raised her palm, stopping the show immediately before turning back to him. " What's it?", " You have been summoned, my lord, to the divine courtroom." Naya frowned as she heard that, and she wondered what was going on. The huge golden door opened for Naya to walk in with Eron strolling behind her. All eyes turned to her as she strode in, her soundless walking steps against the bright white glassy floor. She bowed slightly before the king using the corner of her eyes to scan the golden room. ' why have a

It's been three days now."Misha sighed, " I also don't know; c'mon, let's go; I'm starving, "she said, pulling her along with her and gently closing the door behind her." Or perhaps is it the deja vu of what happened to Scarlett that's preventing her from waking up?", Cynthia asked more like a realization.Misha rolled her eyes, " how can an unconscious person have a deja vu about her friend's death"," Scarlett's spirit might be preventing her from waking up"," Not that your superstitions again ", she said shaking her head," It's not a superstition, think about it, the doctor said she's okay, she's out of danger but

    " they've done nothing but wickedness just to make my life miserable, and I guess they're all jealous of me, and I'm going to show them what....".Before Naya could finish venting out her frustration about the whole situation, Elora switched, taking control of her body." Hey!", Naya yelled, " that's rude!".Elora bit her lips hard, hot tears gathered in her eyes but her lips kept moving from clenching jaw to ridiculous laughter." There's really a goddess in me," she chuckled at the unbelievable situation, " guess heaven can at least do this."A tear streamed down her eyes, and her nose became watery." So moon goddess, what can you do? What power do you have? Can I control your power now that you're in me?", she asked the tangible questions for her purpose.Naya groaned, "What kind of dense vessel are you? They took my powers; they took everything."Her response pissed Elora off; she grunted, "You really are rude", she mumbled to herself, trying to get hold of herself before burstin

    " Her vitals are okay, her wounds are all healed so there's nothing to be worried about. Regarding her loss of memory, that could be due to shock or trauma caused by how heavily she hit her head, but I'm sure she'd recollect her memories with time ", the doctor explained to Docherty and Ember after examining her." Okay, thanks doctor", her father thanked the doctor, " so now there's nothing to be worried about "," What about her eyes? Any explanation for that?", Ember asked," So strange there's no explanation to that, might be the cause of her hitting her head which I doubted, but I'll work on figuring out what led to that, but for now, there's no cause for alarm"," Okay doctor, thank you so much", " You're welcome".The both of them see the doctor off before returning inside, where Elora is waiting for them by the stairs."

Think Jordan did something?"," What could he have done for his bride to go on a shooting spree on her wedding day"," Maybe he cheated on her"," Seriously? If every female does this because of cheating too then we'd all be dead"," True. Even my wolf is curious at what on earth happened"," Whatever it is, it is either something really crazy, or she has just run mad; heard she fell off a cliff and hit her head, so that explains it."The bearded guard looked at her again, but the

    " my beautiful pup, hmm muah! You're so adorable," her giggling voice said as she rubbed her face against his chubby, cute face.Larsen chuckled, his face full of smiles, " I miss you so much mum," his excited voice telling her exactly how much he had missed her. He hugged her, wrapping his little arms around her.Larsen clenched his fist hard as the next memory he had of her was her hand dripping with blood, and the look on her face. The memories he couldn't shove away, the memories that couldn't be buried but just live with it. The feelings he felt that day were still raw and fresh; the anger, the disappointment, the fear, they flashed across his eyes, brewing another wave of anger in him as he angrily gulped down the seventh bottle of alcohol and yet didn't feel any ounce of tipsiness.His heart feels so heavy that anger radiates through his veins as he keeps remembering his mother's bloody hands and Damien's hand holding Elora's.

    Without giving room for a response, he turned around and grabbed Elora's wrist before dragging her along with him back to their suite while Damien stood still, with his blood boiling and he gave out a loud growl and grunt of anger and frustration. His breath rose and fell erratically.Amie watched from the corner, smirking in satisfaction, knowing she'd gotten into trouble; her wince confirmed it as Larsen dragged her with him. The fear on Elora's face gave Amie so much joy that her eyes flickered with so much relief and lifted her mood that made her want to hum a song.Elora winced in pain from Larsen's tight grip, but he was so furious that it sent shivers down her spine; his fury terrified her that she couldn't tell him that his grip hurt. How dare her! How dare her!!His mind was in an unrelenting turmoil. It was so unbelievable when Amie showed him the picture she took, but when she took him to the spot and had to see for himself, a fire was ignited in him.He clenched his fist

    Elora was surprised as her eyes fell on him." Alpha Damien?" the call was almost a whisper," Elora," he called with a smile nudging in. He was pissed about how today went; the smiley look on Elora's face after the meeting ended taunted him that he made plans to have dinner with the Alpha, hoping to see her, but his anger even surged higher when his request was turned down.He was standing by the glassy wall, gazing out of the window and sipping his red wine after giving feedback on their plan to Elia when he saw her taking a walk.This is heaven presenting to him a chance and he wouldn't for anything let it pass." Taking a walk?" he asked, looking as she folded her arms beneath her breast.Without responding, she turned to walk away but he immediately blocked the way with his body." Are you avoiding me?"" Isn't that obvious?."His heart skipped and ached at the same time. She glared up at him.When would she ever look at him the same way he looks at her." For how long would you

    " why are you bleeding?" his serious voice icy and firm. She hid it behind her, making him step closer, and roughly pulled her closer, grabbing her hand. He took a look at her palm and shot her a frown, " You did this?" " It's none of your business," " Everything about you is my business," he flared up looking at the palm, " you did this to yourself?." She swallowed, feeling uncomfortable with how close they were, and her body felt his touch on her hand even though his eyes were blazing. " That's how much anger I was suppressing, his presence irritates me, every word he uttered makes my blood boil, I wish I could punish him, make him suffer, but when you give him the power and privilege, it angers me more," ' and it hurts.' She completed it in her mind. Larsen felt a strike of guilt hit his chest; how much must she have been suppressing to have pierced her delicate palm? His grip tightened for a second. " I wasn't giving him power," he said and dragged her to the pr

    She made to punch his lips hard, but she couldn't; rather, she returned it with a brief cheeky smile and dropped the file on the table before walking to the other side, beside Jordan, hating every step she took towards him.She reached out to the water and gently poured the contents into the cup." A drop of it falls, and you'll crawl under his legs," She heard Larsen's warning that sent waves of anger through her.It's like he saw through her; that devil; she wanted to spill the water on Jordan, but after the threat, she couldn't. It was a message, an unspoken twist of dominance he had over her; even though she hated him and would love to defile him in every way she could, she couldn't risk having to crawl under Jordan's legs.Over her dead body. That disgusting traitor, that murderer." She's so clumsy, I'm sure she'd spill it and then crawl between my legs," Jordan taunted.Elora gritted her teeth as she slowly handed over the water to him, but the cunny Jordan made her spill it by

    She felt her heart skip a little and tightened her fist against the black file she was still holding, brushing the memories to the back of her mind as she hastened her steps to meet up with Larsen's pace.The day could only get busier for Elora as she was given a quick tour through the building, from the massive warehouses, and underground storage vaults where she gets to see some rare earth minerals and exotic materials, then tour to other departments like the logistics and contribution firm, a high-security distribution center where the minerals, obsidian, silver and artifacts are processed." Sir," Elora saw Austin said to Larsen, " it's time for the meeting."' what meeting again? Am I not supposed to at least know my purpose of being here, or is it to just be carrying this annoying black file around with you like a slave?' she yelled in her mind that soon cooled down, ' oh yeah, I'm a slave.'Her face dropped, and without saying anything, she followed both Larsen and Austin to th

    Elora sat with other guards in a big van, dressed in a black pencil skirt and a white satin blouse with a knot. Her hair was packed in a bun, and the footwear she was on was a flat shoe. She glanced down at herself again.' why did he dress me up like I'm going for some official meeting,' she asked in her mind frowning. She looked like she was going to the office if not that she was thrown with the guards in a black van.He wouldn't even let her ride with him to wherever they were going; the distance between them made him seem invisible to her, and for some unknown reason, it made her mad.' there's no way I'd ever understand him or know him,' she said in her mind. He is like a brick wall, one she can't break or see through.Soon, the van came to a brupt stop, and everyone alighted. Elora gasped at the building before her; it was like nothing of the building was made of bricks and clay; everything was of aluminum." Wow, hailing to constructors," she uttered, staring at the building,
