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 Chapter 130: "Five meals of my choosing."
Scarlett's pov “Is kissing the Alpha the new way to negotiate now?” I roll my eyes at Danis’s tease and try not to flip him the middle finger. I’ve gotten more brazen since I got here and I don't know if that’s a good thing or a not-so-good thing. Danis chuckles but he doesn’t stop. “Is your tongue swollen so much that you can’t speak Scarlett?” I turn and give him stink eyes, eyes at which he appropriately grins and gives me a knowing look. I’m sure he knows what Roman and I were doing. What we can’t seem to stop doing, and yes, he’s agreed to me putting myself in danger so I can get the necessary revenge for him, but I didn’t put it that way when I asked him to let me go to the Nightshade pack with wolfsbane for Hunter. “Is Roman ready for work now?” I frown and shake my head at Fen’s question, but he grumbles behind me and asks the one question I do not want to answer. “Do you have an injury on your mouth Scarlett?” Danis snickers. “Or maybe Roman took it out while….?” I
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 131: "Send them in."
Aria's pov“How is he?”I throw my bag on the couch in the corner and walk hurriedly to Hunter’s bedroom. His woman trails behind me just as fast.“He came down with another seizure just as we were about to have…”“Sex?”I don’t have to turn to know she nods and I sigh so loudly it reaches my bones.If Hunter wasn’t my brother I'd have abandoned him a long time ago. Even with the fact that he is my brother I still feel like abandoning him because…. Why can’t he just keep himself in his pants for a few days?“This has always happened when you both try to do it right?”His wo….. Diane nods and I try not to let my animosity leak onto her. It’s not her fault that Hunter is the way he is, but it is still on her that she’s here instead of wherever it is she’s supposed to be. I frown and pin her with a stare.“Don’t you have a home to go back to? Like a life or something that doesn’t involve my brother keeping you as some kind of pet for his entertainment?”I see her anger rise and her lips
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 132: "Vivian, right?"
Scarlett's povDanis drives through the gates of Hunter’s mansion and soon we’re at the parking space. He parks beside Hunter’s cream Cadillac and I disregard the resentment that comes with me seeing the rows and rows of cars he has.He buys them down to gift to his women. The ladies who sleep with him and get into his bed despite knowing he’s a married Alpha, and despite knowing he brings them to our house, or rather his house, because I don’t live here anymore.“Scarlett.”My head snaps to meet Danis and the moment our eyes lock the golden flecks in his gleam. Magic flows between us and I feel it latch onto my necklace. It becomes light and heavy at the same time and then he’s done.Danis nods and I look away, bending to pick up the silver suitcase that weighs a ton but which I insisted I carry anyway.“How do you plan to confront the lady in there who was listening through you?”Danis stills slightly and I feel an icy wind blow. When I look at him there’s a foreign kind of deadline
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 133: "We're not here to hurt you."
Hunter's povThis scent…The wrist I am holding is small and warm. An echo of remembrance lashes through me but it’s gone as fast as it comes. Wolfsbane works its way into my system and all I can think of is how I held Scarlett’s wrist like this once.How I squeezed it and dragged her by that wrist. She would scream and she would beg andThe wrist in my hold is yanked away in one swift move and when I open my eyes, the ones that meet mine peer at me with open defiance and fury.Roman’s assistant is breathing a bit heavily and though my brain sparks with pain from the mate bond backlash, I smile.No one can resist me for too long.Roman won’t ever give her what she wants. He’s been a prude ever since he was young, believing in being faithful, in waiting for his mate. A mate I banged the hell out of even while she was with him.“Wishing you a speedy recovery, Mr. Tyson.”My wolf whimpers in pleasure at the sound of her voice and for the first time in hours, a trickle of relief surges th
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 134: "I got rejected."
Quinn confirms something I've known for a while now. Hunter is an animal. I don’t think there’s a human side to him. I wanted to believe there was. That deep down something in him curls when he does these things. That something in him protests when he has an old lady shackled and whipped by his guards because she couldn’t give him the results he wanted. The marks were red and furious on her back when Quinn showed them to us and I could see flashes of pity on Danis’s face as he numbed the flesh there. She had been crouching because of them. We’ve promised to get her out, but she has to keep her end of the deal. She’s agreed and now…… now Danis is as silent as a graveyard as we ride back to Ironclaw Corp. My heart pounds softly in my chest and something static resides in my bones. I feel still. I need Roman. At the thought of him, our mate bond pulses softly and I chase that feeling. The feeling of his strong arms and his comfortable heat. The way he can be a rock I lean on and

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
