Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 29: "How did you know?"
“What do you think I did?”Scarlett is a ball of fury right now and I'm trying to keep my temper in check too but it’s hard. Why does she always assume the worst of me? How does she assume on a whim that I did something? I look down at the woman who has me backed up against a wall. I let her pull me. I let her put me in this position. I reckoned that there would be no way she would do anything to hurt me but now I'm not so sure. My eyes dart to the tattoo now on the nape of her neck and the anger that flares through me is unnatural. I push her off me and she yelps as she stumbles backward, but before she can regain her footing and scream a thousand and one questions at me, I slip my hand around her waist and steady her. She is still in my arms and we stay like that for a while. Her taking deep breaths and me looking at the crescent moon with roses growing out of it. “I’m sorry for screaming at you Alpha Roman.” The words come out as barely a whisper but I nod all the same bec
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 30: "Stay safe Mummy."
Scarlett's pov“What happened to you, mummy?”Maya is stuffing her face full of food and I’m supposed to be eating too but I can’t help myself. I stop and stare at her.Maya begins to tell me how she has to get to school and how she has her first class for the day today. She wants to head over to school and climb that wall again. Her classmates don’t seem to like her too much but she has someone she thinks might like her, he even told her his name.Atreau. He has brown hair just like her but his eyes are darker than hers. He shared his seat with her yesterday and he’s a year older than her.“When am I gonna be nine years old too mummy?”The tears that rush out of my eyes sting as they do and I have to look away so Maya doesn’t see them. I can’t get that image out of my head.She was on the bed and she wasn’t waking up. What if she didn’t wake up anymore? What if she had died in her sleep?A shiver runs down my spine at the thought of that and fierce defiance makes me straighten up.N
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 31: "He saw what?"
Roman's pov“He saw me.”The room is full of people and Scarlett is a small form at my side but she’s been acting nervous since she got here.“Who saw what?”She gives me a cross look and shifts her head awkwardly in what I'll assume is her way of gesturing.“Him, the man you sent to come get me. He saw me.”The frown that lines my face doesn’t do justice to the amount of confusion I feel.“He saw you? He has to see you if he wants to ask you to come meet me, doesn’t he?”Scarlett stares at me for a moment and I see something like indecision in her eyes. There is a struggle there. She doesn’t know if she wants to tell me this thing or not and I'm not sure if she understands what she wants to tell me herself.He saw her? He has to see her. I asked him to get her for me. I frown and watch her critically. “Are you okay, Scarlett?”She hesitates at first but still nods. It’s a nod that hides all the doubts she feels about that question. I can imagine that she doesn’t feel like the strong
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 32: "You should be my assistant."
Scarlett's pov“You should be my assistant.”I look at the words written on the note and I blink in case I just viewed them wrong, but I didn't. I read it right. The words are there, clear as day, and I don't know what to think about it.I mean I could become his assistant, I was never allowed to do anything in Hunter’s pack, not because he wanted to take care of me that way but because he saw me as incapable of doing anything. I was meant to produce his heir, and when I gave birth to Maya instead of a son for him, I failed at the one thing I was meant to do.I was seen as useless from that moment forward. I graduated from High School and was well into my college education before I met Hunter. The mate bond snapped tight between us when I was Twenty years old. Just when I imagined I would never get a mate, and right there and then I gave everything up for him.To become his Luna and his mate.“I wonder what he sees in you.”I turn at the sound of that voice and surprisingly it does
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 33: "Alpha Roman's personal assistant."
Scarlett’s pov.Roman is in his office when I get there. My hands are clammy and I'm sweating from the nervousness I feel, but I have to do this. He knows something. He was in the room the moment I woke up and he was the first person to spot the mark on Maya’s neck. It’s strange that I don't feel anything from it, not even a sting. I’m in front of the Alpha’s office and trying to gather my thoughts when I hear a voice behind me.“Are you going in?” The deep timbre pulls me out of my thoughts and I blink to find him standing in front of me. The male from earlier. The one who saw me naked.I feel my cheeks heat up as I remember that moment and the anger comes back again. Anger at the fact that he actually saw me undressed and didn’t have the decency to turn away or walk out. He stood and he stared.I clear my throat and look away from him. He smirks and walks fully into the office to go sit down on one of the chairs. Maybe this was a bad idea.“Are you okay?”Roman’s voice clears
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 34: "He did what?"
Roman’s pov.“Calm down. I know what I'm doing.”Scarlett regards me calmly and cocks her head to the side. “Are you sure?”“I am.”Everything between us feels so settled right now that I don't know what to think of it. She’s still beautiful, as beautiful as she was when I first saw her, but now, with the hair change, she feels different.I think I've always been aware that this has been happening. Right from that moment when she held a gun in her hands and shot wolves down so she could protect herself and her daughter.Scarlett is bolder now, she would never have asked me a question like that a week ago.“He’s the one who saw me this morning.”I look at her and nod.“I sent him to your room to get you.”“And he saw me naked.”“He did what?”Fenrir’s anger is like a lance at my throat. The pressure building in my chest is remarkable, but he’s not the one in control, I am.Scarlett’s eyes are wide in shock and I see she’s flinched. I relax back into my seat and close my eyes so I can
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 35: "I will pay you back Myrtle, I promise."
Roman's povShe’s in her cell when we arrive.Scarlett doesn’t gag at the stench and she doesn’t seem to smell it. It’s another indication that whatever has happened to her is related to Myrtle and the ritual.The older werewolf stares at both of us, her eyes moving from me to Scarlett and finally settling on Scarlett, roaming over her form deliberately and curiously.I don’t know when I move but I know I do.I cover Scarlett from Myrtle’s line of sight and my nose flares in slight anger.She doesn’t get to inspect my mate like that.My former councilor smiles and white eyes meet mine.“You’ve become attached, Alpha Roman. Does she know?”My breath stills and anger floods my bones like liquid heat.The old lady chuckles.“How would she? She’s still mated to someone else. She doesn’t feel anything.”My aura bursts from me with the force of a rushing torrent and I imagine it wrapping around Myrtle and sinking into her mind.“Roman..”Scarlett’s breath is shaky and whispery and I tell sh
Luna Scarlett's Second Chance Chapter 36: "What the fuck?"
Scarlett's pov “Mummy, your body is really hot.”I open my eyes to see Maya leaning over me. Her purple eyes still strike me as strange whenever I see them. It makes her look exotic, lends her a special kind of beauty, and seeing her worry leaking through from those eyes makes me smile. “It’s okay Maya. The room is just really warm.” She nods and lies down again, her head on my chest now and her eyes on the ceiling. “How long are we going to stay here mummy?” Surprising questions seem to be Maya’s forte and I should be used to it now, but it still surprises me. “Why do you ask?”“I like it here. Beta Fen has promised that he’ll let me train as a warrior if I come out top of my class for the next two years.” The frown that lines my face is spectacular. I thought I said no more discussing things with Maya without my permission. “Do you want to become a warrior, Amaya? Maya stills and turns to stare at me, eyes wide. “Did I do something wrong? You only call me Amaya when it’s s
