We vanish and feeling returns to my body. My arms tingle as blood courses through them and i stumble on my feet as Danis’s magic spits us out.Danis reaches for me immediately and i don’t know why i do what i do but my brain reacts without thinking and that fire flares again.This time it burns hotter than the sun and i unleash it.Danis doesn’t have time to react. He screams.The smell of burned skin and flesh wafts into my nose and Danis crumples to the floor, holding the side of his face.Yellow flame licks it’s path up the ridge of my arm and i want to send out another one. I want to send it out so bad.How dare he!How dare he abduct me! In the middle of these hard times! He abducts me and lets his father torture me.Danis curses under his breath and he doesn’t look up.Anger has me walking over to him and…. I don’t even know what to say.“Why Danis?”My voice cracks as i speak and breathing is all i can do not to cry. The amout of panic i felt.The helplessness!He just endange
Roman's pov.“Alpha Roman.”I rise from my seat immediately and the apprehension in my heart flares.“Yes.”Fen stands at the door with Maya behind him and beside them is my father. Alpha Kai Collins, former Alpha of the Ironclawpack sets his gazeon me and i feel a number of emotions course through my bones.The most prominent one is regret.I don’t know what i’m doing here. I don’t know what to do.“Have you eaten anything today Alpha Roman?”My heart sends a pang of pain to my head and i accept it gladly. The headaches, the hunger pangs, the despair that sits heavy on my heart. I deserve all of that.I couldn’t keep my mate safeI lost her yet again.“He hasn’t eaten anything since my mum left.”My eyes drift to the little girl and seeing her just reminds me of my failure once more. Scarlett has been gone for three days now.The Shadowbane pack is on lockdown. According to the warriors i killed, the pack is undergoing a spiritual purge. Every gifted member of the Shadowbane pack h
Scarlett's pov.I feel the warriors before they approach.The silver threads of the Ironclaw pack glint in their eyes and the door to the packhouse comes open.Wolves step out in broad daylight.They’re massive wolves of different colors. Their furs glisten and their eyes gleam as noses twitch in anticipation. A frown lines my face as i wonder if this is a wolfhunt? Did something else happen while i was gone?Roman’s wolf steps out and my breath catches. His wolf looms taller than the others.With dark silver fur and pitch black eyes, it looks deadlier than any of the others and joy soars in my heart.All i need to do is open the mate bond between us.All i need to do is open it and have him see me, yet hands grab me from behind and pull me back. Fabric muffles the scream that comes out of my mouth.“Got you.”I kick and struggle but a strong arm wraps around my waist and flips me around.The shadow of the buldings in the alley casts a darkness around us and my eyes meet purple ones
Hunter looms over me and we wait until Roman and his warrior wolves leave.I have to endure standing here with him, being in his presence, looking at what my life has become right now, and knowing i might lose it all in the next three days.Hunter is right.He’s the one who’s going to be seen as the victim. He’s the one the world will say was wronged.They’ll say i should never have left him. I should have never left the life i had with him.They’ll say so and i will have to agree because what is a Luna if not wrong against the word of her Alpha?The Alphas decide who lives and who dies. They decide what justice is and how justice is doled out.I feel Roman’s presence, just a step would connect us back.A step would link us once more, one to the other, yet i have to feel him go by me.I feel his presence fade, just when i could have grabbed at it.Hunter nods and he walks over to the semi circle of marks he’s drawn. He squirs the wolfsbane in the syringe over it and he turns back to l
The gates are unmanned so i let myself in.No one stops me as i make my way across the courtyard.I get to the front door before anyone finally sees me and when she does, she exclaims.In less than a minute i have people gathered around me. Omegas, because they’re the only ones left in the packhouse right now and my strength fails me because i collapse.They help me up the stairs and into a bed.One of them taps me lightly on the arm and asks “Should we bring your daughter in so you can see her?”My eyes fly to the time on the clock and it’s well past 9. She should be asleep now, and as much as i want to see her,I don’t want her to see me like this.There’s blood dripping down the side of my neck. I’m so weak i can barely stand without shaking. My hair is dirty, my eyes are swollen.There’s cut on my cheek where Hunter slapped me, and every flare of pain it sends to my brain is a reminder.A reminder that i have a lot of work to do.I don’t want to meet Maya like this.I look weak th
Roman's pov. A howl escapes my lips as the mate bond flares to life and Fenrir turns immediately, bursting into a run and back towards the packhouse. The wind snaps at my fur and my gums grow heavy with desire. My fangs itch to sink them into her neck, and as the night sky illuminates my path with silver light, the decison settles into my heart. If she asks me to mark her, i will. No more waiting. She’s mine. I know my love for her is true. I do not have to doubt it, and i know her love for me is true too. Our actions have made that clear. Our mate bond hums with life and with a leap, Fenrir burts out of the trees. The packhouse beams like a beacon in the distance. The pouding of his paws against the earth fills my ears. The rushing of the wind as we cut through the space resonates with the beat of my heart. I shift once Fenrir’s paws hit gravel, and my body is a flash as i hunt for my mate. I find her in my room. Candles cast a soft glow to the darkness around us and the
Scarlett's pov Roman moves and it’s like all my nerve endings are on fire. His dick is so large, so full and so heavy in me, i feel full to bursting. My walls stretch and pulse around him to accomodate both his witdth and his length. “Fuuck!” Roman’s deep throaty mind moan has tears stinging my eyes. He draws back out, and pauses. I can hear the sound of my delictae pink walls hugging that large enormous dick. My head lolls to the side at the amount of pleasure coursing through me, and Roman slams back in, burying himself to the hilt and going balls deep. A loud throaty moan escapes my lips and it travels the line of a moan and a half scream. Every bit of skin on my body feels alive. Every bit of flesh on my body hums with plesasure. Roman’s mark on my neck burns and i feel the intricate markings of the mate bond working itself into the both of us. He licks the punctured flesh, my blood on his tongue. “Say you want me hard and rough, Scarlett. Tell me you want me to fuck you
“I want to go find Alpha Roman mummy. I want to hear what he thinks about my dress.” I smile as i watch Maya go off and that warm feeling surges through me again. Today is the day. For the past three days, Roman and i have been in close distance of each other. I told him what happened with Danis, and of my encounter with Hunter. I told him everything Hunter said and i lay it out before him - The fact that i just out his pack into more danger by telling him to mark me and crossing that last step into becoming official mates. He told me it was his pleasure to mark me. He wanted to, right from the moment i showed him how much i would do to keep my daughter and those i love safe. Roman said if any danger is to come, the Ironclaw pack stands behind me firmly. He, stands beside me. Until the end. A knock comes at the door and my head snaps to it’s direction. Myrtle doesn’t wait for me to tell her to come in before doing so. Roman released her so she can take care of her grandniec
