Chapter 8: "Mummy, see what i can do!"

last update Last Updated: 2023-04-18 17:56:30
This house is huge.

That's the first thing I notice about it.

Alpha Roman's beta takes us through wide hallways and past beautifully furnished rooms. The sunlight streaming in through the windows and the obvious wolf design incorporated into almost everything makes me feel a sense of awe.

I pull Maya closer to me and I notice she's actually focused on something else, or rather someone else.

The blond-haired man Roman says is his beta walks in front of us, but I notice the way he always turns back after a few minutes to shoot Maya a silly look. Sometimes he sticks his tongue out, other times he makes a silly face.

Maya's look is neutral and I don't know if he's trying to make her laugh or loosen up a little. I'm pretty sure Maya's more on guard than I am, and that's scary.

"Here are your living quarters, princess."

I frown and open my mouth to correct him that my name is Scarlett, not beautiful or princess, but Maya beats me to it with a very uncharacteristic scoff.

  • Luna Scarlett's Second Chance   Chapter 9: "The Alpha's fighting his father, because of that filthy rogue!"

    ~You can come to me Scarlett, I won't hurt you.~The voice sounds so far but it feels so near.~You're my mate, Scarlett. I could never hurt my mate.~My eyes snap open and I notice it all at once.Maya's gone!I get up and a second later I'm bolting out of the door.I'll kill them!I'll kill every person that has laid a hand on my daughter!"Maya? Maya, where are you!"A lady comes out from one of the rooms in the large hallway and I rush to her, grabbing her by the shoulders."My daughter! They have my daughter! Where have they taken her?"Maya's scream is like an electric shock when it wafts into my ears and I jolt away from the bewildered lady. My ears follow the sound of Maya's screams and my legs spur me on faster than they have ever. I take the stairs four at a time, slipping more than once on the tiles but running like my life depends on it."No! Cockroaches are gross! Arghhh get them away from me!"I see Maya, in her nightshirt and pants, her hair loose and unruly but running

  • Luna Scarlett's Second Chance   Chapter 10: "Scarlett!"

    Roman's pov.My father is livid."What is the meaning of all this, Roman!"My eyes snap up to meet his and I can see the rage he's trying to control. I reply calmly."Of all what?"The rest of the council is behind him, and soon they all come into view. My father and his beta remain the tallest amongst them, and even though they're all aged now, the black ensembles and fitted suits give them looks of potent danger and power.I direct my gaze back to my father and I see the anger behind his glowing blue eyes."I heard you brought a Rogue into the pack, Roman. You're sheltering a rogue in our pack!"I lean back in my seat and place my clasped hands on the table."The issue of the female werewolf and pup now taking residence in the pack will be addressed accordingly, that isn't the only thing we have to cover today. And lest you forget, Mr. Kai, this is now my pack. I am the Alpha and I will handle the pack in whatever way I think is best."My father recoils into himself so fast that I w

  • Luna Scarlett's Second Chance   Chapter 11: "Congratulations Aria, you just made Scarlett's life a whole lot harder."

    Hunter's pov. The sound of moans fill the air. "Ah, fuck me harder Alpha!" A cruel smile lights up my face when I hear those words. There are three ladies in the room with me and they're all stark naked. The scent of female pheromones is heavy in the air and each whiff of it sends a fresh dose of blood to my cock. I love that feeling, being so hard that your cock feels like a rock. The bitch who moaned is riding me. This is the first time I'm having sex since that bitch ran away. This is the sort of sex she could never give me. These whores will bear children for me. Strong sons that will carry on my name and put a smile on my face. I look into the pleasure filled eyes of the redhead riding me and I smirk as I drag her head down to kiss me. A knock comes from the door. "Alpha Hunter, Beta Knoxx is here to see you." The guard's words are rushed but Knoxx doesn't wait for him to finish talking before he barges in. His eyes scan the expanse of the room and upon realizing what

  • Luna Scarlett's Second Chance   Chapter 12: "He's asleep?"

    Scarlett's pov. What in hell am I doing right now? I try to move and am restricted yet again because the huge arm around my waist won't let me. Alpha Roman has me in his hold, and I'm embarrassed at how much I like it. Hells, why am I acting this way? I'm supposed to be freaking out right now, trying to push him away in fear and screaming at him to leave me alone. Hunter has wounded a part of my spirit and that wound is still pink and raw, but the man whose body I'm resting on isn't Hunter, and my spirit seems to be fully aware of that. But still, this isn't appropriate. I clear my throat and try again. "I'm fine now, Alpha Roman. I promise. My chest doesn't hurt anymore and I can breathe properly." I don't get any response but I'm dead sure he heard me. "Alpha Roman?" No response. "Alpha Roman?" Cold fear rushes through me this time and I gulp. Is he dead? "Roman?" "I can hear you very well Scarlett, and I'm glad we're now on a first-name basis. Is there anything you wa

  • Luna Scarlett's Second Chance   Chapter 13: "Do you trust me?"

    My hands are shaking and Maya is still crying. I have her cradled against me and I can't think straight."Maya, tell mummy what's wrong?"She doesn't say anything. She just goes on crying and I let her because sometimes that's what we need to do. Something has hurt her.Something or someone.My mind flies to several possible suspects but I turn up with nothing. Alpha Roman's beta came to pick her up specially this morning and I followed them to the auditorium. The teacher is a slightly aged lady and her male counterpart assists her. Fen assured me that they only teach them the basics for now.Things like how to maintain a proper stance.Basic muscle training like sprinting, and climbing, just basic stuff. Maya was the first to get there this morning and it isn't even three hours yet but she's back like this."Maya, did anyone hurt you?"Maya calms down but only slightly so she can nod her head.Fury seeps into my bones and I smoothen her hair softly."Was it one of the trainers there?

  • Luna Scarlett's Second Chance   Chapter 14: "The Alpha Conference?"

    Roman's pov.She hesitated.I look at the time on my watch and try to get that moment out of my head, but I can't.I asked her if she trusted me and she hesitated for a split second before sighing and giving a nod. There's nothing I can use to describe how that made me feel. It made me feel like a liar and a fool.Well, of course she wouldn't trust me right away. I'm the Alpha that has growled at her every time he met her and who almost couldn't control himself today.I loosen the tie around my neck and try to breathe better.It's hard being around Scarlett, even harder being alone with her.A series of knocks come from my door and my head whips to the sound immediately."Come in."My father's personal assistant opens the door and steps in not a second later. She walks over to my table briskly before dropping the file she has in her hands."There are the reports you asked for, Alpha Roman. Your father requires a few days off to rest and has asked that you should be informed of this hi

  • Luna Scarlett's Second Chance   Chapter 15: "I'm fine, Alpha Roman." (Scarlett's pov.)

    I move my head to the side as I roll on the bed and scrunch up an eyebrow. Maya was bone-deep exhausted when she came back, and according to her she had been lied to and wronged by Roman. His Beta had put her through even more training when she went out to the gardens and while she liked it, she didn't like being lied to. I chuckle as that thought runs through my head and I try to slowly extricate the hand she has in her hold. The Alpha Conference is something I know of. It is held every three years, and as Roman said it is a gathering of all the Alphas in the state. It's much larger than that though. I've heard Hunter having council meetings about this Conference, planning year on end for it. The Alpha Conference might be why he's so horrible to me, but that's a matter for another day. I slip out of bed and get myself ready. Alpha Roman of the Ironclaw pack is a man who loves his pack. Even if I couldn't tell that from the rumors I have heard of him, I can tell from the way he s

    "Follow them." Fen nods and motions to the warriors hiding in the treescape. I feel the magic that hums in the air as they transform. My warriors turn back to give me one last look, and I let my eyes glow as Fenrir comes to the surface to encourage his fellow warriors. Fenrir is a leader, a commander among wolves, and he's got guts of steel. He's made that more than evident today. Fen and six warriors take off in their wolf form and I punch the nearest tree as I grit my teeth. The sound of deep cracking comes next and with a groan the tree collapses. I take a deep breath and start pacing. Calm down, Roman. You can do this. Yes... you might have just sent your second mate off into lethal danger, literally risking her life because she wanted to make up for forgetting a car, something that might have been your fault since you didn't let her breathe for two minutes without making her nervous! But you can do this. You can. Fuck, what the hell am I doing! I need to go after them.

  • 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

    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
