Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 114: "Can we drop a present for her?"
Roman's pov “Keep the shades on.”Maya nods like a small soldier taking orders from her commander and pride lights up in my heart. The driver takes us into Ironclaw corp and I feel something scratching a nerve. Maybe it’s nervousness, but it’s been a long time since I last felt nervous. This is just a small scratch of that feeling, yet I know why it’s there. I’m nervous Scarlett might feel I'm doing this because I don't trust her. I do. More than I ever thought was possible. Thinking of her running my company for a day was easy. Scarlett will be happy if she sees us. She’ll be surprised, but she’ll also be happy. “We’re here, Alpha Roman.” I nod and open the door for Maya to get out. She’s still in her uniform and I'm still in my disguise. “If anyone asks, you didn’t bring me here.” The driver nods and I decide I like him. He’s going to be questioned by Fen later when he gets to the pack, and if he lives up to my expectation, I'll see what I can do for him. “Is mummy in ther

Scarlett's pov Roman’s investors aren’t your normal set of people. First of all, they listen to me and are enraptured by my explanations on renewable energy, and that’s not all. Note that I am just freeballing here, I do not know in clear terms how to give a good pitch on what sustainable energy is or why they should be ready to invest in something that might or might not work because to be sincere, sources of renewable energy are limited and how to utilize them is even more so, but somehow these people sit and listen to me, asking questions at interval and asking what investing in this would do for them and why they should invest in it. From a personal angle, I think Roman just wants to do good for the world he lives in. This whole pitch and the investors part, feels like he has an agenda behind all of it. I may be wrong, and I may have messed up this pitch too, but that’s what it feels like to me. But what the hell? “That’s the end of my pitch.” The six people facing me blink r

I drive myself back to the Ironclaw pack.The gifts are at the back of the car and the pack warriors do not hesitate before they open the gates for me. The Ironclaw crest parts and I enter the pack with the widest smile on my face. I don’t need to verify myself at the gates, and the warrior at the pack checkpoint only glances briefly at me before he waves me off.The thought occurs to me that the members of Roman’s pack might know he has a mate bond with me.My mood threatens to fall when I think of that but I push it away. He wouldn’t make such a public announcement yet.We’re yet to deal with Hunter and….. Things aren’t as solid as they should be right now.The small city Danis took me tea drinking in seems to belong to the Ironclaw pack. I can tell some Humans live alongside the werewolves of Roman’s pack, he said something about the hairstylist he got today being human and mated to a werewolf.I exhale as I think of that. That should have been difficult.The gates to the packhou

“You did?” Maya nods and she turns to face me fully. “Uncle Danis said I'm special. He also said you’re lucky to have him since he knows all about special babies like me.” Okay, I can imagine Danis being all smug and saying that…. And I guess I am lucky in a way. A very audible “oof!” cuts through the air and a loud thud follows. My face whips to the source of the sound but Maya beats me to it. Her small neck turns just a fraction of a second faster than mine but we both see the same thing. Roman is grinning and he’s extending his hands towards his fallen Beta. Fen accepts the stretched hand and lets Roman pull him to his feet. “I want to ask Beta Fen to train me. Can I mummy?” I want to freeze and say no, but I know she’s safe with him. “How about you join the rest of the pups? They’ll be doing laps in a minute or two.” Roman’s voice strokes something in my mind and I lock my jaws even tighter because he’s walking towards us now and no way am I getting seduced by him talking
Last Updated : 2023-06-30Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 118: "Did something else happen last night?"
I’m getting dinner when someone’s voice reaches my ears.“So were you necking with Roman or what?”I cock my head to the side and half glare at Danis but he looks really pleased with himself. He settles on one of the benches, crosses one leg over the other, places his elbow on those crossed legs and his chin in his waiting hand, then he stares at me.Danis has a special beauty to him that I think no one appreciates. Each feature on his face looks like it’s meant to be there, the elegant stub of his chin, the delicate wrist he’s resting his hand on.“It’s rude to stare, Scarlett. Maya hasn’t told you that?”I roll my eyes and look away. I can’t deny necking with Roman. I tried to hide it with a bath and some concealer, but ultimately, I couldn't.The other part of me, that wolf who’s been termed weak by everyone around me, even myself, refused to stop growling when I tried to cover it up.She even sent a lash of pain through my head and I dropped the powder in my hands. It fell and sp
Last Updated : 2023-06-30Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 119: "Talk to me."
The dining hall falls into silence the moment Roman walks down the stairs into it. Even the children keep quiet and I feel Maya move closer to me on instinct.I reach out instinctively across the mate bond but Roman’s emotions singe me back. It’s like I have a mental burn and Fen meets my gaze when I look away from Roman. His gaze is knowing.I feel Roman when he stops. His presence across the mate bond becomes heavier and I remember I want to ask Danis about this mate bond now. I want to ask him why I can feel this much but that’s irrelevant now.I need to be near Roman.The room seems to release bated breath when he leaves and Maya makes a sound that comes off like a purr. Danis is already looking at me when I look at him and so is Fen.They want me to go after him, and I should, I know I should. But a strange fear has me paralyzed in my seat. I… I…should go to him. Roman would never hurt me while he’s angry. He’d never do that, he’s not Hunter.“Scarlett…”Roman isn’t angry at me,

Last Updated : 2023-07-03Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 120: "Is he going to be alright Beta Fen?"
Scarlett's pov “Is he okay now?” I hear Maya’s voice and my head snaps up to look at her. She’s with Fen and Danis, holding a hand from each one of them as she stands in between. Fen is looking at me for an answer. Danis looks like he already has the answer and that just makes me feel slightly annoyed. I squash that annoyance and smile at Maya. “Are you asking about Alpha Roman?” She nods and cocks her head to the side lightly “Is he in the woods? Did he shift into a wolf?” Two questions that are too precise for them to be mere coincidence. Danis chuckles nervously and he meets my eyes, really meets my eyes, for me to see the slight panic in his. He clears his throat. “Let’s get you tucked into bed Maya. I’m sure Alpha Roman will come around when he’s ready.” “But is he in the woods though?” Maya doesn’t look my way again as Danis leads her away. Fen stays back and his eyes ask all the questions his lips don’t. I get up from the grass and dust the dirt off my hands. I’m grate

Luna Scarlett's Second Chance A/N
Hi wonderful readers.First of all, I’d like to say thank you for reading so much and so far. Thank you for the time invested into this book.Without you, nothing would have been possible, so thank you for that.We have come to the end, and while it is a bit abrupt, I’d like to clarify some things.The book is already at 290 thousand plus words, I was really worried about its readability because anything longer would probably scare readers off. I don’t know how everything usually operates because I am a mildly new author on the platform and this is my first completed book, but it felt like Luna Scarlett was getting long, and if I was to go further into settling some other points in the story….. It’d have been way longer.Now to pick up some of the points I left unfilled in the story (Without giving any spoilers of course.) (Okay, maybe one spoiler, or two :)The fact that Hunter’s mother killed Oliver: I’d say this would have led into a whole other story, and it will, it’s basically
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 262: Mine.
Roman carries me in his arms.Diane is helped along by the mage.We’re laid on beds and the pain from the contractions almost makes me pass out.“Your body’s burning, Scarlett.”I feel water enveloping me and I hear Diane’s low low grunt as she’s laid into the pool too.The contractions make everything feel hard and painful. My mind slips in and out of a haze and the water is red, so red, but through it all Roman stays with me.His red eyes are as clear and pure as two scarlet moons.The indoor swimming pool is converted into a labor room the moment the doctors arrive. I open my eyes weakly to see a whole team of them, strange faces in blue overalls, and the smell of the hospital lingering in the air.The contractions hit again, and this time Roman helps me onto a table as I grunt and cry my way through them.This is stronger than anything I've ever felt.I hear one of them tell Roman firmly, “If you want to be here, wear one of these.”Roman is back at my side in less than a minute,
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 261: "Please."
Scarlett’s pov.Each blast of energy I let out makes me grit my teeth in pain.The doctor and Myrtle watch me with calm eyes and though it rips my heart to see them standing there like that, I don't stop.The shield over me shimmers with each blast of energy I release and I can see the impatience filling them because they can’t touch me while this is still going on.There’s an impatience to the way Myrtle grits her teeth but I can't bring myself to be happy at that…. because I'm killing him.Hot heavy tears flow down my cheeks and I burst into a sob because I can hear the sound of his pain each time I release my power.His shield is directly linked to his power, to him.I’m like a bomb in a can. He is the can.He can’t contain me.He can’t keep me in.I will go off as many times as I need to. I am a woman. My energy is endless, but while I do it… he suffers.It’s either I stop and get my stomach ripped open, my baby… my child will be killed.I would never forgive myself because it wou
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 260: Alphas come and go.
The scarlet glow in his eyes grows in strength and all the dots come together in my head.Elara was never abducted. She orchestrated the attack.The strangeness of the wolves that attacked us was because she had infused them with the gene mutation she stole from me, and Ironclaw warriors weren’t able to do anything but die at their hands, because they had never met anything like that.They couldn’t take over the pack totally, because, like everything that’s stolen, it’s never stable. The look in Elara’s eyes makes me chuckle as another truth hits me and I let her get himself to full strength. I let the shift take him over, and in a moment of nostalgia, the scent of jasmine comes carried on a gentle breeze as little lines appear in the wind.They blaze to life with bright but silent lights, each one swaying as if blown by a light breeze. I see the lines extending through the wall behind me, the room where all those in the packhouse are being held currently. I see them in my mind, from
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 259: Alphas come and go.
Roman’s pov.The bond between me and Scarlett stretches taut due to the distance and it’s the first time I've felt something like this between us.Feeling her and barely feeling her at the same time.The cars pull up to the gates of the mansion and I can tell my packhouse has been taken over by foreign forces. No one makes themselves visible when the gates come open, everyone is hidden but the moment we drive in, the gates slam shut faster than they ever have.The feeling of arrows already poised at us sends a light tingle down the side of my neck and I send a message to my father through the mate bond, ~Take the children to the safe house. Drive there like it’s what you always meant to do….Stay safe Father, and keep the children safe.~My father sends a feeling that echoes low on the mindlink, one that tells me he will obey my words to the letter because he is a wolf under my command, and I am his Alpha.But as a father and someone who’s watched me grow into who I am today, he’s
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 258: "Fuck you all!"
“Scarlett.”A brief silence punctuated by mumbled words and then the word comes again.“Scarlett.”The tone is more insistent this time and my eyes flutter open as a headache burrows it’s way through my head. I groan as i open my eyes fully because my head hurts a lot.Surprise steadily flow s through me when i realise i have been bound. I can barely move my hands or my feet.I try to struggle against the ropes but i can’t, and the voice comes again.“Psst, Scarlett.”I raise my head just the slightest bit, unable to see through the large mound of flesh that’s my belly.I feel my baby moving andd kiclkin, the discomfort stinging me like pins.“No, no need to raise your head.It’s me… the mage.”My fuzzy head clears up enough to remember where i am and what happened to me before i blanked out. I feel my body go rigid as shock courses through mel, a healthy dose of shock and fear.No.I struggle against the ropes.NO. NO. NO.Hunter wouldn’t dare.Hunter would never!“Hunter!”My heart
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 257: "Priam is here for his mate."
Walking through the halls of the Nightshade pack has me feeling… not nostalgic.I can remember wallking through here when i came here with Danis once. We delivered wolfsbane to Hunter.Then simply being in the compound had shaken me. It had made images of me back here float around in my mind, and then i knew Hunter would have done something horrible to me and Maya if he had gotten his hands on us.I don’t know what must have caused the sudden self proclaimed change in him, but i wouldn’t risk myself and anyone i know depending on that.I’m only here because Hunter knows who i am now. He knows i cannot be hit or hurt by him, without him suffering consequences.“About the conversation we had the other day.”I turn to look at Hunter and i see the way he maintains eye contact with me for a second before looking away to stare at something else. His voice comes out more sulky than i imagined he wants it to be.“I only knew Oliver.I didn’t have any relationship that was out of the normal w
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 256: "Stop the car."
Scarlett’s pov.It’s a bloodbath.I feel the tang of blood on my tongue, the smell of death in the air, I smell the power leaking off Roman, and as it leaks off him, it goes into me.“Roman…”My voice is hoarse and croaky. I can barely hear it. It’s a rasp that leaves my throat feeling sandy and hollowed out yet Roman hears it.His head snaps to me the moment I whisper his name and I realise now why everywhere seems so silent. There’s not a sound emanating from the forest, not from the archers in the trees, not from the warriors Roman brought along, not even from the birds - probably already scared away by the violence, or the attendants - scared into silence by Roman, currently dotted in large splatters of blood. Roman’s presence jolts when he comes to me.I feel his aura wrap around me faster than anything i have ever felt before, and when he cradles me in his arms, i feel the shift take over him and his claws retract, the red glow from his eyes fade, the heat radiating from him d
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 255: "Everybody down, Now!"
Roman’s pov.The world pauses as I feel Scarlett’s anxiety spike through the mate bond.It’s a thick and heavy feeling in my gut.My head snaps to her, searching for any traces of what might be happening and for a minute all I can feel is Maya telling her there’s something wrong with the boy.There’s something wrong with Axios.Before anyone can pull another breath, I feel my wife fill herself with power so pure it leaks into me and sets my nerve endings on fire.“Everybody down, Now!”The blast of wind Scarlett releases makes a boom when it rips out. Screams come from the attendants now on the floor, the shrill whistles of arrows are almost masked by the boom of air but not quite. I see the arrows fly back with the force of a snapped twig and they find targets.Scarlett fills herself with that power again, needing not even a second to fill herself up, already primed for an attack while I'm still trying to make sense of it all.The orders come from my lips not a moment later, “EVERYO
