Scarlett POV
When Will approached me, I hadn't intended to be so harsh and distant with him, but knowing that they were using my creations and had brought someone else along... It went to my head and I didn't think straight.
I accused them both without having any proof and ended up having to apologize, but at least now I know they weren't with that woman and they hadn't invited me either, which left the question open, who invited me to this event?
It wasn't Oliver, he had assured me of that... Until I got here, it hadn't bothered me, only now, with Nick and Will here, it didn't seem to be just an ordinary invitation... Normal people believe in coincidences, I never believed in that.
I took out my cell phone from its hidden pocket and looked at the messages.
Liam POVThe rest of the event went by monotonously. I usually enjoyed these gatherings, but since meeting Helen... I mean Scarlett... My head hasn't been thinking straight. I understand that Helen was just a fantasy and the woman in front of me was someone else.Her words and her cold, distant demeanor, with a touch of irritation, were enough for me to truly understand that she wasn't coming back and that she had moved on. I'm glad Klaus didn't say: “I told you so.”The evening seemed to drag on and I tried my best to keep smiling and socializing and even made attempts at a few jokes. Klaus was completely opposite to me and disliked these events as much as I used to love them, but we attended as it was always good for business.“Let's go
Klaus POVThe rest of the night went relatively uneventful. On arrival we showed her to the room where she would be spending the night. We did however have a slight problem. We had no women's clothing in this house. It wasn't something we ever thought about, as we usually never brought other people to stay over here, but Keenan said that he would attend to it.After about half an hour of cleaning and tidying up, it was finally only me, Liam and Keenan in the office.“Have you been able to discover anything yet?” I asked Keenan.“No... However, I did find that the cameras that cover that exit were turned off approximately 10 minutes before Scarlett went there and they were purposefully kept off for the entire time that whatever
Liam POVThis time we were definitely wrong. Scarlett never seemed like the kind of person who wanted to depend on others, even when she was with us, she always found a way to be independent, whether it was in the clothes she chose to wear, when she deciding on what food she should make to eat, or wether she chose the series and movies she enjoyed watching on the television. She only gave herself away when we played, but we only just managed to gain her during the last few days.'I'd better apologize soon... This is our chance to get close to her again! Don't be stupid enough to miss it!’ Grim said in my mind.“Sorry.” I said sincerely and stood up. “It wasn't fair of us to think the way we had... We didn't know much about you and we jumped to conclusio
Scarlett POVI walked in and went straight to the bedroom to get the dress I'd worn last night. I folded it up neatly and tried to fix it up as best as I could. I definitely needed to fix it. I wasn't going to let it stay all torn and broken simply because I didn’t feel well about what happened. My work of art didn't deserve to stay in this condition either.Sleeping here, so close to Klaus and Liam, was very hard, to say the least. Knowing that they were around and so close... Apart from the argument we had this morning, a part of me still reacted, so instinctively, to both of them, seeking their affection and acceptance.Keenan dropped me off at my studio. The ride back was completely silent, but when he stopped he didn't open the doors.“Miss
Klaus POVIt had been two weeks since our last meeting with Scarlett. Liam, as per his promise to Scarlett, was following her brand and she was doing very well, her store always seemed full and several influencers were helping her spread the word.Keenan had been notified of what had happened to Victor, who was forced to pay a certain sum of money to Scarlett in respect of damages caused, as well as having to apologize to her. A restraining order had also been obtained prohibiting him from coming within 5 kilometers of Scarlett or her work premises. This got him banned from the mall. Victor was also admitted to hospital with several broken bones, which were spread throughout his body.I think that if it hadn't been for Victor's status, he wouldn't have been left alive. Keenan informed us that Oli
Scarlett POVYou know, people believe that being a virgin until you find your Fated Mate is sacred, but I've always wondered why it's only with women. While guys go around having sex at will and women have to be virgins and innocent. No, I'm not innocent, I know a lot about sex - seriously, who doesn't know that we have the internet? I've played around a lot, but I just never got to the bottom of it.I'm already 22 and a virgin, and I've never met my Fated Mate, so I took the opportunity that came my way. I'm auctioning off my virginity and that's a relatively rare item, for my age and for who I am, an Omega... But I'm rambling, probably to take my mind off what's going to happen in a short while, in 20 minutes my name will be called, and I'll have to present myself on a stage, show every part of my body, and then the bidding will begin.I need money, not exactly for college since I'm a federal student, and no one in the family is sick since I'm an orphan... I want this money to be fr
Scarlett POVThen the bids started to come in, although nothing too significant yet, but with a good number of interested parties, at least enough to reach the first level. When this happened, I bowed briefly to everyone, like a perfect lady, lowering my knee and pulling the cape slightly to the side, before pulling the strings inside and letting the fabric slowly fall away, revealing the first dress. Several sighs and comments of approval were heard.The bidding started again, and the values were reached more quickly this time, and soon it reached the point where the first dress would be removed. Again the bidding stopped, and I slowly pulled down the zipper on the side, revealing the third dress and leaving more room for imagination.As soon as the new pitches began, another person entered the scene, a dark-skinned man wearing a dark gray suit with fine white lines. In his left hand, he was holding an object, a red leather collar, the leather was printed with scales and the lines th
Scarlett POVFor a Werewolf to get drunk, it has to drink a lot, although Omegas don't usually have the same resistance as an Alpha, except that I did, so no matter how much whiskey I drank, I wasn't going to get drunk, so I filled my glass once more with that amber liquid. All this to try to calm my nerves, after all, I don't know who's going to walk through that door. Or what kind of person has bought me and that's why I'm trying to calm myself down by drinking almost a bottle.I looked at my surroundings again. It was a small office, decorated in a medieval style, with dark wood furniture, and gold details. On the floor was a soft carpet in shades of dark red and black. There was a desk, two armchairs, a sofa, and two bookcases. To the left, there was a window adorned with red and black curtains.I'm wearing lacy black lingerie under a semi-transparent dress with shades of purple and blue. On my feet, a pair of black high heels complemented the outfit, all at the request of my new
