Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Author's note.
Hi readers. So I saw a comment today where a long-time reader indicated some confusion and displeasure at how the book is currently going. I’d like to clear some things out and also apologize to her and any other reader who has felt confused about some things so far, I’m really sorry. I didn’t plan on setting down some plot points and then abandoning them along the way. I also didn’t plan to give an abrupt ending the way I kind of did. The book wasn’t performing so well up until last month so I was asked to end it. Of course, I couldn't tell the readers that, and it really affected me too knowing that the book wasn’t doing too well according to the Goodnovel team and statistics. I planned to end the book, then read through and elongate it from within the already written chapters, clearing plot holes, fixing any confusion, making the whole story give a wholesome feeling. But last month, the book’s performance suddenly picked up, and I was asked to continue it, so I had to look for a
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 180: "She was his mate!"
“The council has decided that it can no longer take a seating position on the current matters in the pack.”Roman’s father stares steadily at me as a member of the council addresses the room.“We need Alpha Roman to tell us what he plans to do with his mate who has just been rescued after eight years of her being abducted. The Alpha’s silence over this is uncharacteristic and uncalled for. Elara was a part of the Ironclaw pack before she was abducted on what had to be the worst night in recent Ironclaw history.Now, by a pure miracle of the moon goddesses' making, she has been found and brought back, but the Alpha is ignoring her!She was his mate! It’s…”“Uncalled for, unusual, not what he should do, not what you think he should do, not what you want him to do.”I avert my eyes from Alpha Kai and turn to face Councilwoman Greta. She replaced Myrtle after she left and now it seems she has made it her job to make me feel like shit whenever we sit at council meetings.I’m not always he
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 181: "Alpha Hunter of the Nightshade pack is here."
My body aches pleasantly by the time we’re done and Roman is kissing my neck in soft slow motions, circling the bite marks that send a thrum of pleasure to my core each time his tongue sweeps that area.I let out soft sounds, pleasant sounds that can’t be mistaken for what they are.I turn to face Roman and throw my legs over his unclad waist, literally bear-hugging him and letting the sound of his laughter ring in my ears and leave a smile on my face.“Did you miss me that much Mrs Collins?”Roman’s voice is a deep rumble that sets my body thrumming pleasantly again so I nod, burying myself into the warmth of his body and not caring about what I look like right now.Roman kisses me, his hands roaming my body as he turns to face me and his lips seal against mine. He makes me melt even more against him and blanks my mind out.I needed this.I needed this more than I knew I did.Roman’s gaze is warm and kind as he stares down at me, his ice-blue orbs glowing warmly, “All better now?”I
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 182: "She looks like me, doesn't she?"
Hunter is pacing in the waiting room when I get there and I can't help the sneer that lines my face. He has some nerve! That’s one thing I'll give him. He actually has the nerve to come here and show his face to me again. I can feel the anger lining Hunter’s face, the annoyance bunching his shoulders, and the impatience in his prance. One sentence spills out my mouth when he turns and meets my eyes, “Who let you in?” Hunter scoffs and chuckles, running his hand through his hair, “I come to see you and the only thing you can ask is who let me in?” I nod, “Who, the fuck, let you in? And did I ask you to come see me, Hunter? I don’t want to see you, get out.” I can feel venom leaking from my tone and I had promised myself I wouldn't be this way. I promised myself I wouldn't act like I was angry or bitter about anything. I wouldn’t act like the sight of him annoyed me, like his presence made images flash behind my eyes. I promised myself that I wouldn't act in a way that showed him h
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 183: "Why not?"
Scarlett bursts into the room with panic leaking off her face. She bypasses the council members, bypasses Fen and the one person I thought she’d be happy to see, and comes straight to me. She doesn’t have to lean down much to whisper into my ears yet the only thing she says is, “He knows.” I frown and look up at Scarlett but there’s a certainty in her eyes. Mixed with the slight signs of panic and breathlessness, there’s certainty in the eyes of my mate and I don't doubt her for a second. I still have to ask though, my voice a low whisper, “Knows what?” A flicker of mild amusement threatens to make Scarlett’s lips curl but she leans low again and answers, “Hunter, he knows. He’s just acting like he doesn’t.” An annoyed voice interrupts us, “Does the Luna plan to take any more of our time?” Greta’s comment makes Scarlett’s aura peak but I tilt my head to whisper into her ear, “Ignore her.” Scarlett nods and straightens up, facing the council, “I’m sorry for the disturbance. I ha
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 184: "So what!”
Scarlett’s pov.“I told you not to tell him!”Elara comes in weeping, her lips shuddering and tears rolling down her cheeks. She heads for Roman and screams at him, “I fucking told you not to tell him! Why’d you tell him!”Something about Roman’s stillness right now makes me feel a trill of fear but I know him, and I trust him. Roman looks up at Elara from his table and replies calmly, “Were you planning to keep him from his father forever?”Elara slams her hands onto the table, her lips pursed in anger and she bursts into a sob. The sound makes me jolt a bit. It makes me feel like her sorrow is leaking off her, trying to find its way into me and when I look at Roman to find him staring at me, a hard look in his eyes, I nod and walk over to them.I offer consolingly.“Roman didn’t have to tell Hunter about Axios’s existence, Hunter already knew. He felt Axios, all the way from the Nightshade pack the moment you two came here. It was out of our hands already, Elara.”“Did he have to te
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 185: "I'll be your magic metal detector."
The member of the Alpha council I see puts a weird look on my face because it’s none other than Priam.Roman told me of how Priam supposedly traded information with the Alpha council that got him to change the council’s position and make him a member, the youngest member to ever be on the council.Roman doesn’t believe Priam exchanged any regular information with the Alpha council, and now that he’s here, I can't help but feel something nervous creep up my spine.Danis comes to mind almost immediately but I push him out as fast as he comes in. Priam has an added ring of silver in his watery peach eyes, and now when he smiles I can't help but think that smile is conniving.“What do you want?”I dump myself into the seat facing him and massage my temples. I don’t sound warm or welcoming and I know it but Priam simply chuckles, his voice deeper than I remember it and raspier.“I thought I would be welcomed like an old friend. You don’t have to be this cold, Scarlett.”I already feel like
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 186: "I feel he knows something."
Roman comes back with further news about Hunter’s reaction.We have dinner together as he tells me Hunter didn’t keep up his look of surprise when he saw Axios. He looked slightly startled when Axios couldn’t speak or didn’t want to see him, but apart from that he didn’t do anything else, he didn’t insist that Axios would follow him back to the Nightshade pack. He didn’t try to make a fuss about not having his child be brought straight to him.He didn’t make the kind of trouble anyone would have expected him to make, and that’s strange.“I feel he knows something.”Roman is cutting a huge chunk of steak with determined focus, his hands working as his mouth comments, “I feel Hunter knows something about Elara and the boy and that’s why he’s acting this way. He says he’s yet to decide if he wants the boy to go back with him, and that’s just bullshit.. because he’s always wanted a son right? And what Alpha doesn’t want their son to go back to their pack with them?”Roman catches himself
