“Stop Danis.” My chest is tight and I feel like I can't breathe. Fuck. “He cursed you?” I don’t mean for my voice to rise but it does. Maya is sleeping and I should keep this rage to myself but what the hell? What the fuck. “Let me see the marks.” Danis freezes and he drops the violin slowly. “I didn’t show you that memory because I wanted you to see the marks, Scarlett.” “But….. how come I've never seen them?” Sure I haven’t spent a lot of time looking at his feet, but “You’ve worn shorts recently haven’t you? I would have noticed it.” “You’re missing the point, Scarlett.” I stop and try to quell my anger alongside the righteous fury roiling in my heart. Some aspects of Danis’s story aren’t clear yet, but one is clear. A child was taken advantage of by someone meant to protect him and that child’s father beat him up for it. Cursed him for it even. “Breathe Scarlett.” I take a big inhale and try to exhale all the tightness in my chest. I feel like something has unknowingl
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 123: "Show me the marks Danis."
Hunter's pov. “Tell me you’ve found her.” My patience is running thin and my body betrays me by aching but Quinn still shakes her head. I grip the bed sheets and take deep breaths because if I don’t, I might do something that will cause my body more harm, so instead of that, I focus on the crone trying to wear me out. I chuckle. “I will kill that child Quinn. Don’t think I can't. I killed her mother, didn’t I? Your failure of an Alpha son is yet to come for you” My chest tightens and I have to bite back a hiss of weakness “I brought you here to find Scarlett for me Quinn…… If you’re going to be useless, then expect the dead body of your grandchild in your hands.” My heart feels like it’s frozen over but my anger keeps me warm. Anger at the fact that Scarlett, my mate, is cheating on me with someone else. And she isn’t just cheating on me, no, no. She’s cheating on me, and she dares to make me feel pain through the mate bond. A bond that was more or less dead a few days ago, bu
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 124: "It's the same stone isn't it?"
Scarlett's pov.She’s been listening in. The strands of Danis’s soul do not stop gleaming and I freeze because shit.This… this isn’t good.I look at Danis and he’s still not speaking. He’s just looking at me, and for a moment I wonder if he’s being controlled by someone else. This is one reason I do not like anything related to magic.I never know what to expect. Do I….start using sign language to speak to him? Would he even understand that?Danis hisses as he pulls in a sharp breath through his teeth and it is one of pain. I know it is. His face makes little quirks and jerks, the muscles trying hard not to contort, and with the panic that runs through me because of the concern I feel, something at the side of my neck heats up like it’s in a furnace.I hiss and reach for the mark.My hand comes into contact with it and it’s like something is shot into my veins. The world explodes in brightness and when I glance at Danis, I can see the magic of his soul clearly.The seven strands are
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 125: "He's back."
Scarlett's pov.Fen takes Danis into the packhouse and I sit up all night waiting for Roman. He doesn’t come back.Finally, I have to go back into the packhouse, get Maya ready for school, and get ready for work since Roman hasn’t made an appearance.My heart is heavy as I carry out every activity and my brain feels muddled.Okay, so someone has been listening in through Danis. That’s unexpected and alarming and for all I know that person could be working for Hunter, or that person might not even be related to Hunter at all and I am just being paranoid. Something else might be happening in that’s not related to me, but still,“He’s back.”My head whips to the sound of Fen’s voice so fast I hear the bones snap. My breath hitches and my throat becomes dry.“He’s back?”Fen nods and in the next second, I'm walking past him and out the doors. I almost run through the hallway and I reach across the mate bond to feel for Roman.I feel him. His end hums with life but there’s no energy to i
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 126: "You have to explain."
Roman goes up to change first and I have to stop myself from following him by looking away as he leaves.Almost like he knows the effect him leaving has on me, he tugs on the mate bond. It’s a light tug that reinforces my realization that Alpha Roman of the Ironclaw pack can be naughty sometimes. Not just naughty, but very naughty, because as he tugs the mate bond, I feel his want for me.My core turns liquid and my breasts become heavy. I know what will happen if I go up with him, and I want it to happen, but not yet. It would be irresponsible of me, of us, especially when danger might be lurking around the corner.Danis makes a sound that has my eyes snapping to him. His teeth are lightly bared and he’s letting out low growls, but Fen simply chuckles and sticks his nose into the crook of Danis’s neck even more.I clear my throat and Danis gives me a look that tells me I and Roman’s little stunt didn’t go unnoticed.Fair enough.I get started on breakfast and hope with all my heart
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 127: "She was cheating on you until the last moment."
Roman comes down fully dressed for work and in his hand is the darned envelope Aria gave me.I don’t believe for one second that she ever had any good intentions when she delivered this letter.Was Hunter even sick at all?Roman drops the envelope onto the table and when my eyes meet his, he hesitates.For some reason that hurts me but I know Roman doesn’t do things without a reason. There’s a reason he’s hesitating, and when he drops the envelope on the table and takes the seat beside me, I wait until he permits me to open it.“You can have a look at what’s inside.”I nod and reach for it. I open the flap and fish out what’s in it. They feel slightly glossy, like pictures.\The first picture of the bunch has my stomach rolling.No.Hunter’s face stares right back at me. He’s grinning, his hair tousled and his pupils blown in pleasure. The second picture is of a woman. A golden-haired woman.She’s naked and only her midsection upwards is shown in the picture, but her body’s stance is
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 128: "Lets give him the wolfsbane."
Roman refuses to give any answer to that question but he takes something out of his breast pocket and places it on the table.When Fen reaches for it, he stops all of a sudden and shakes his head in derision. He looks at me and gestures to the folded paper.“Open it.”I pick it up and unfold the single sheet of paper. The name of a medical institution catches my eye first.“Northridge Hospital. Medical facility for werewolf and other related ailments.”My eyes run lower and there’s an area circled out.“Traces of wolfsbane were found in blood sample. Tracing leads back to five years or further. Most of the effects should have faded, but traces of the wolfsbane remain. Recommending a purge.”Shit.“She was feeding you wolfsbane.”Roman breathes in and I hear the shudder in his chest. He nods and for a second I imagine myself bringing his mate back from wherever she is and slapping the hell out of her because what the heck?What the actual heck?I pass the report to Fen and he curses u
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 129: "I don't care."
Roman's pov. “I would never leave you for Hunter Roman.” Scarlett’s voice is little more than a whisper yet I hear it deep in my soul. She scoffs and when I turn to face her she looks disbelieving and mildly irritated like the thought of it annoys her. Like whatever she’s thinking of is so downright ugly that she can’t even bear the thought. “I mean who would leave you for him? What kind of a person would see you and know you, and still choose a man like Hunter?” The anger in Scarlett’s voice drips some life into my veins and just like that, the dark clouds are gone. There’s something about her every action that makes me feel she’s the most endearing person I'll ever meet. And the answer to her question is known to both of us because someone did. My mate did. Elara who I loved fiercely and refused to forget even five years after she was taken from me. I had shown her myself, shared moments of happiness with her, but while she smiled in front of me, she cheated behind my back. A

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
