Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 145: "Your friend?"
Hunter's povRoman steps out of his building with her. I feel something in me still at the fact that he’s down here. Here with his assistant, who has told me she is with him, but even his mate wanted me. His assistant will be no different.My breath catches when I see her because she’s stunning. The black dress drapes beautifully down her body and the thigh-high slit teases my vision. It’s a dress I'd like to see any woman in, and it fits her perfectly.The smile she gives me is cold when she stops in front of me.“Good afternoon Alpha Hunter, I got your text.” Roman stands a few paces away and doesn’t look at me. There’s no friendliness in his stance and no warmth in his posture. Something prickles the back of my mind, a faint possibility, but I discard it. Aria had to have done something to get him to give her the wolfsbane.The thought of him getting intimate with my sister has my blood curdling, but Roman would never do that. He’s too noble.He probably considered the years of f
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 146: "I love the way you make me feel"
Scarlett's povRoman drives us to one of the most expensive restaurants in town.There is barely any traffic on the road so the ride is smooth and enjoyable. I tell Roman how I had a cousin that died suddenly when I was eighteen years old.He was an Alpha. One of the rare few not born to Alpha parents. His father, my uncle was a beta and his mother was an omega.His death broke them because he was so kind and nice for an Alpha. Alphas are usually self-obsessed pricks who think of nothing but themselves and their well-being.Roman gives me a look at that but the smile on his face is undeniable.I speak on how his body was never found but how his bed sprouted worms the night before. It freaked the whole pack out. Days later traces of his blood were found in the woods. The pack shaman concluded that he had been cursed. Traces of magic were found all around the pack. In the woods, on his bed, I felt something I never felt during those years, and it was the loss of a loved one.I believed
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 147: "Marry me."
Roman speaks freely and I listen with all my might. His thumb doesn’t stop rubbing the one spot on my hand and I rub his too sometimes.I see the locked-up emotions in him come to the light and then fade away as he talks about them and their effect on him.I hate the way my hate for Elara seems to multiply the more he speaks.She and Hunter might have been the perfect fit for each other. Hunter, a cheat, and her, also a cheat.Roman’s voice fades into the background for a brief second and I say something I wish I could take right back.“Marry me.”Roman stops in the most halting sudden way that a smile tugs the side of my lips but the shock has my face frozen in place. Roman also looks stunned and I spend the moment of silence asking myself “Why did I just blurt that out?”This isn’t how I planned to do this.“Say that again, Scarlett .”Roman’s words have my skin pebbling and when I look at him, his gaze is hot and heavy on me. His thumb rubs the bone of a knuckle and I try to stead
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 148: "I'll be better in a minute."
Roman drives us towards the pack in relative silence and I feel like I should worry.His answer had been a kiss on the lips. In front of everyone in the restaurant and amidst cheers and hollers.The smiles of the people my eyes met made me feel on top of the world. But what was better than that was the feeling coming off Roman’s end of the mate bond.I felt happiness from him.I have felt him happy before, but this time that happiness was like a raging fire. I could tell he was happy, I could feel it leaking into my bones. I could tell he was filled with it, and there was no space for anything else.He whisked me into the car immediately after and we’ve been driving in relative silence ever since. The smile on Roman’s face could blind the sun itself, and that smile hasn’t faltered.Me telling him I'm worried would kill the magic of today. It would ruin the mood, so I don’t. I plaster a smile on my face, keep my eyes straight ahead, and try to ignore the odd prickling along the ridge o
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 149: "Joe's Diner."
Roman’s pov.Scarlett opens her eyes and panic flares through our mate bond. When she turns to look at me her face has turned pale and her breaths come in short heavy bursts.I wheel the car to the side of the road and park there. A traffic officer comes for me immediately but one look at the car has him making his way back. The crest of my pack is there if they know where to look for it, and any officer that sees the Ironclaw crest and still comes for me must be new or foolish.Scarlett has buried her face into her hands and she’s taking deep breaths.My voice is hard when I speak.“Talk to me, Scarlett.” She peeks at me from the corner of her eyes and I see something like doubt glimmer in them. Not just doubt, but fear. It skitters along the bond and sends a chill into my skin. The urge to protect my mate from whatever is bothering her rises in me but I resist and wait for her to speak. I can’t help her if she doesn’t let me know what’s wrong.“Scarlett.” She turns to look at me f
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 150: “It's fine. I'm here to discuss with you about Maya.”
Scarlett's pov Roman drops me off at the pack as he promised and gives me one last kiss before backing out and going to wait for Maya to come out of school. We discussed it in the car. He’ll switch cars with one of his men while passing underneath the bridge that leads to Ironclaw prep. I wouldn’t put it past Hunter to have spies of his own and getting them to follow Roman would be an order he’d be all too happy to give. Slight panic flares in my heart again but I resist that feeling and assure myself it will be okay. Because it will. It will be okay. Despite my self-assurance, I keep my wits about me and my awareness out. There’s nothing Hunter isn’t capable of when he’s angry, and I made him angry. Dangled Vivienne in front of him like a treat and then snatched her away in a not-so-nice way. Maybe I shouldn't have done that. My brain revolts at the thought of it and the look on Hunter’s face comes back to me again. No way that look wasn’t worth the small effort I put in.
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 151: "Hunter is also her father, Isn't he?"
Fen brings to light something I've been oblivious to all this while.Maya’s custody.I don’t think I have ever considered what would happen in that aspect, and now that I listen to what could and may happen, my blood runs cold.“I… I can't give Maya to Hunter. That’s impossible.”Fen nods and his expression becomes less stony. He must have heard how bad my voice quaked and I despise myself for that, but I can't give Maya up for anything.“I know it’s hard to take” I swallow and Fen’s expression turns disconcerted, yet he continues “But it is one of the things that might happen when you go public with Roman for the werewolf world to see.”“But Maya is my daughter. She’s mine.”My heart palpitates and I sound like someone trying to convince herself of a fact right now. Fen shatters my whole outlook not a second later.“She’s not just your daughter Scarlett. She’s Hunter’s too, and he has rights to his child.”“That shouldn’t be the case when we divorce. He’ll cut off our mate bond. He’l
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 152: "Same."
I kick the door of Roman’s library open and wince at the way it bangs against the wall. Danis looks up from his table by the side of the window and I'm surprised to see him wearing glasses. They’re almost like mine, but I know they’re medicated. The worry in his expression has me pausing for a moment before I make my way to him as fast as I can.Two piles of books are on the floor and one is larger than the other.“Did Fen tell you?”I nod and Danis looks away. “I’m sorry I didn't say this on time. It’s always been at the back of my mind, I think I simply… forgot.”Somehow the way Danis makes this sound like it’s his fault makes me feel how young he is. He’s only twenty-two or twenty-four, yet he doesn’t act his age at all. I’m pushing twenty-nine, almost close to thirty, and I freaking didn’t consider that my daughter’s custody would be an issue!“If you’re going to allot blame, heap it all on my head. I’ve been a dumb bitch, and a very irresponsible mother.”Danis’s brows crease
