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

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
