SCARLETT How many times had it been already? I woke up in the same bed and stared at the same ceiling for five minutes straight. but this time, my memories were not hazy. I was well aware of what had happened before I lost consciousness. He marked me. I was too weak to bear the force of the mark and fainted. It was good this way. I couldn’t see him doing this to me. Slowly, I touched my neck and found a bump there. My fingers trembled, running over the mark which still ached. To my surprise, tears didn’t well into my eyes. I didn’t even feel anything about it. It was like, all the anger, the hurt, and the pain had been sucked out of my mind. And I was in a numb state. Finding myself too cold, I got up and walked toward the room. With a single pull at the door knob, it opened with ease. I stood there, in the doorway, wondering what I wanted to think about this freedom right now. He didn’t even need to lock me in a room anymore. He would know where I was, all the time. And he wo
SCARLETT Realizing I was powerless against Izer left me with one choice. Stop fighting him. I could only piece myself together and wait for someone to come get me. Even then, I would be doomed if the Rogue Lycan didn’t reject me. In a true sense, I was his captive now. And I was never going to forgive him for this. I could not show my disdain and display my hate to everyone here either. I didn’t want this stay to become torturous for me. I was never fond of blood, and pain. Thinking about all this and internally hating myself for begging him to touch me, I took a tour of the ground floor of the house. It was huge, to say the least. There were two kitchens, two sitting areas, and huge glass walls. I wanted to go up to the other floors too but I gave up on that idea when my eyes landed on the large pool, right on the other side of the glass wall I was standing beside. Sun was going down, leaving the world ready to take on the darkness. The reflection of the beautiful color
SCARLETT “ Nice try, Valerie. ” I snickered bitterly. “ You almost had me in the first half. ” “ I am not joking. ” Valeria hissed. “ Of course, you are carrying out another plan against me. I don’t even need to ask if your…FRIEND put you up to this. ” I whispered, stepping away from her. She disgusted me now. To think that I considered her the sister I never had was utterly humiliating. “ I should have known you are too naive to believe me. ” She sighed, running her fingers through her blonde hair. “ You want me to believe you…over Rush? Even when it’s you who betrayed me? How gullible do you think I am? ” I spat. “ Then you should trust the lover boy even after I show you this. ” She smiled and brought out her cell phone from her jeans pocket. I eyed the phone, my heart beginning to beat fast. What were the chances of me getting my hands on her phone and calling Rush or Alpha King Cadamus? I knew their numbers, but…in my weak state, winning against Valerie was impossible. I
IZER Feeling her strong emotions was a pain in the ass. I was relaxing in my office, completely at peace when her emotions hit me in the head and made me groan in pain. I wanted to shut it all down, but couldn’t do it. This was the price I had to fucking pay for marking her. And despite wanting to stay on my spot to continue relaxing, I had to get up and find her. I was not expecting to see her having a panic attack in the sitting area. She couldn’t breathe, and seeing her like this, I couldn’t fucking breathe either. But, now it felt all good. Fucking sweet! Her soft body was plastered to mine, hitting all the good spots. The trouble of getting here paid off. It was not a complete waste. Realizing how she was relying on the enemy, she tore her tempting body from mine and crawled away. I smirked, watching her peachy ass jiggling in my face. Oh how I would like to keep her there, all nice and ready to take me but well…She didn’t want to. Not my loss that she didn’t want to fuck
SCARLETTHe left me after he was done touching me and threatening me. Momentarily, I had lost my mind to the bond and let him do forbidden things to me but now, when I regained my sane mind, I hated myself for it.He had given me a demo of what he could do to me, of what control he had over my nerves. He could do anything, but I couldn’t stop him.It was driving me crazy. What was I supposed to do here?Rush was my only hope, and now that hope was blurred. I didn’t want to doubt him, but…there was just…a bad gut feeling I had.What if Rush also betrayed me? What was I supposed to do then?“ Alpha wants you to come down for dinner, Luna. ” The girl—Sophia entered my room and informed me.I sat up in the bed and eyed her. She was wearing a casual white T-shirt with blue jeans and still managed to look good.My eyes wandered off to the huge windows, finding the world dark outside. The night had fallen, and yet I was still not hungry.I glanced back at her to find her standing in the sam
SCARLETTIzer strolled out of the room when the alarms sounded louder. I didn’t have the energy to follow him, because panic was beginning to settle.Someone had attacked. That someone could be probably Rush or Alpha King Cadamus. But did I want to go back with all these doubts? Pretending to be okay? What if Valerie was telling the truth?I had no idea what to believe or not anymore, and it was fucking up my head.All my life, I had clarity. My parents loved me, people loved me, and everyone loved me. But that perfect picture was shattering every day, until I was only holding onto a single piece of hope that maybe—maybe someone loved me truly and that I was thinking too much, doubting too much.“ Scarlett! ” Huffing Sofia barged inside the room, startling me. “ come on. Get up. We need to go now. ”“ Why? What’s wrong? ” I asked robotically.“ Alpha King has sent the Alpha of the Night Howl Pack to attack us. They are all over the place. ” She gave me the desired answer.I released
SCARLETTWhen I thought, it was an easy way out again, he was thrown off my body. His body flew back so hard that he hit a tree in the distance.I dropped to my knee, coughing wildly. I couldn’t breathe again, no matter how hard I tried. My hands wrapped around my neck as the familiar, scary howl of the Lycan vibrated throughout my body. I trembled, slipping back on my fours in fear.The wolf was close, and I didn’t even have the strength to pick my head and look his way. It was Izer, and I bet he knew I tried to ditch him again.There were harsh noises everywhere. The violent growls, and the rough gurgling. I released my neck, took in a deep breath, and placed my hands over my ears instead.My head was spinning. Things were too much for me to go over them calmly. I breathed in, held it for five seconds, and then released it. I continued doing what Izer had made me practice and refused to think about anything else.I only broke out of the trance when a pair of arms scooted me up and
IZER“ Did you have to hit me so hard? ” Azkiel groaned, rubbing his nape.His spine twisted earlier, and it still hadn’t healed so I bet my ass it hurt like shit.“ You should be happy I didn’t snap your neck. ” My eyes flashed as I barely contained the growling beast inside me—my wolf Xandros. “ touching her, and choking her was not part of the fucking plan yet you did it. ” “ C’mon, Man. I needed to make it believable. You think she would have fucking believed it if I was all rainbow and sunshine to her? ” He huffed, sulking in the chair across from me.He should kiss the desk’s ass for being between us because I was on the verge of losing control. The fingerprints on her neck were driving me wild. No one but fucking me was supposed to leave marks.“ I believe this was all fucked up. ” Valerie murmured, keeping her gaze on the floor. “ You are breaking her, Izer. ” “ Stop being dramatic. It’s not that deep. ” I rolled my eyes, but her breathless, panicking state was not leaving m
Hey Lovely Readers! Izer and Scarlett's story ends here. Thanks for giving this book a chance and reading it to the end. I received many kind words from readers when I was writing this book and those words helped me finish this story. I appreciate all the support and love this book received and I am glad I was able to complete it. I had a hard time writing this book because Scarlett's character was that of a girl who was forced to stay isolated from the world until she turned eighteen and Izer came to take her. She was a little childish but I believe, that's how a person like Scarlett was supposed to behave because of her age and because of her lack of interaction with other people. At times, I was frustrated with her too, but I am happy I didn't get a sudden writer's block on this book due to the pent-up emotions *Phew* I believe Izer's character helped me get through this except for my readers all the time. He is different from all the characters I have ever written before. It was
SCARLETT~A week later…Dixon and Sophia's wedding was a chaotic event. Managing so many humans and werewolves in the same place was like conquering a war. Sophia stressed throughout it all but when she walked down the aisle and reached Dixon, I saw true delight in her eyes. I was her maid of honor, Valerie was her bridesmaid and Izer was Dixon's best man. When Sophia asked me to assume this role, I realized what I really meant for her and after that, I vowed to be a great friend to her.On the other hand, Dixon had to bribe me with a hundred compliments to make me convince Izer into becoming his best man. That was a dramatic day, three days ago but I managed to get the broody Izer Primeblood into it in the end.Now, the wedding ceremony was over and everyone had moved to the reception party which was held in the I. Tower's wedding venue. It was a classy high-end event where humans were mingling with werewolves without being aware of our true nature.It was funny for me. If any one
SCARLETT Izer really let his wolf out. I was surprised as I looked through Aine’s eyes. The two wolves were being lovey-dovey with each other. The huge wolf of Izer looked strange while he nudged Aine all the time just because of his intimidating size, but it still warmed my heart. After Aine and Xandros were done cuddling and my wolf was tired, she let me take over. It felt natural for me to shift back and forth. I just had to think about it and it would happen. I sighed in relief as soon as my gaze fell on my naked arm. A little of silver fur was still lingering on my skin but those were the remnant of hair. I shuddered. My eyes rose to Izer’s wolf. He was watching me and had stepped back to, perhaps, assure Izer that he was not trying to hurt me. A smile spread on my lips. The wolf threw me a dangerous sulky look before he let Izer take over. The look made me laugh. He was brooding because he didn’t get much time with Aine. “ That was odd. ” Izer huffed as soon as his eyes met
SCARLETTKatherine’s funeral was held the next day. It was a small service in the compound that every member attended. There were no outsiders allowed because Katherine didn’t have anyone except me and the people of this compound.She went silently, and everyone looked genuinely sad at her funeral. This only proved that she had lived a good life. I felt calm after knowing it.Yesterday, I didn’t leave her hand until Izer came and made me do it. I was in shock for a while. I felt cold. I just met her and now she was gone.But, after that, it felt peaceful as if I had fulfilled a mission and could finally rest.Later that day, after Katherine was buried, Martha came to stand beside me in front of her grave. “ She was pregnant with you when we came across her. ” She whispered to me. “ we were reluctant to take her in because she was a wolf but the curse on her was already working. And she was rejected by everyone else in this world. She had nowhere to go but she looked hopeful because s
SCARLETTMartha knocked on that wooden door and then opened it after waiting for a few moments. My heartbeat reached new heights, letting Izer know what I felt and how this was affecting me. He squeezed my hand, assuring me that he was there to manage things if I was uncomfortable.I steeled my nerves and stepped inside the cozy cottage. I couldn’t really focus on the small sitting area that we were in because I was too busy staring at the back of the woman who sat on one of the light brown couches in front of me.“ Katherine. She is here. ” Martha called out to her softly. The woman slowly turned around. A pair of green eyes met mine, and my heart halted beating momentarily.If I wanted to know how I would look in old age, all I needed to do was to look at this woman. Her eyes, her nose, her lips…It was like I was not looking at someone else but myself in the mirror. The only difference between us was the wrinkles around her eyes, mouth, and neck. Her eyes watered as she looked at
SCARLETTIt took Izer three weeks to get things done. He assumed the position of the Alpha King, established his control over all packs, and made all the necessary arrangements to keep things running.Martha called many times but I always told her to wait. I was not leaving without Izer. I knew he would be restless if he had to send me to some unknown territory alone and now, I knew what my priority was.I could keep the woman I was supposed to call Mom, waiting, but I couldn’t stress Izer out. Fortunately, everything was taken care of. We boarded his private jet in the morning with Martha and now stood on a territory that was thousands of kilometers away from home.This didn’t seem to affect Izer much. He was confident in himself. But that’s not how he felt about me. He was worried that I might start having an identity crisis after meeting my biological mother and he didn’t want that so he kept telling me that no matter what happened in my life, I needed to know that he was my famil
SCARLETT It took a few hours for Izer to get things done in our pack. I talked with pack members and Sophia until he was free. He came to me on his own and made everyone else disappear with a single look. We both went back to the car and started our journey back home. The creepy smile never wavered on his lips. With time, I was finding it less surprising and scary. Izer was happy. And he couldn’t stop displaying it around me. “ Is this our territory? ” I asked, pointing at the forest which was on both sides of the road. “ The whole city is our territory, Darling. ” Izer’s eyes sparkled as he shot me a quick glance. “ Stop the car. ” I told him and unbuckled my seatbelt. Izer stopped the car instinctively and then turned to me. “ why? Is something wrong? ” I shook my head and got down from the car. Izer watched me until I was on his side, opening his side of the door and spreading my palm in front of him. “ Let’s go. ” I jerked my head to the right. “ Where? ” Izer placed his
SCARLETTWe did talk about not having sex and making him take a rest but it turned out, that was just that. A talk. I couldn’t really resist him when he was so adorable sometimes.If someone else ever heard me addressing Izer Primeblood as adorable, they might think I had a loose screw in my head but they didn’t know him like I did. And for me, he was adorable whenever he looked at me with puppy eyes. So, it was always hard for me to resist his charms. After we had a quickie, he fell asleep by my side. I made sure he slept for the whole day and kept Dixon away from him when he came to the penthouse, complaining that his Alpha was not responding through the link.When Izer woke up, I thought he would be a little salty about the way I made Dixon run away but he was all sunshine and smug about it which was really strange.He had been smiling, and creeping me out for a few hours now. Slowly, I break out of my trance and glance at him. He is driving the car, and the stupid smile is stil
SCARLETTMartha told me all about this Lakeburgh town where they built a secret hideout for all people like us. Anomalies—she called them. Strange people that were not supposed to exist in this world.They had powers, and strength and there was nothing like them. So, she said it was important to stay together and stop each other from running evil and wreaking havoc on the world. I liked this idea. She told me this compound had existed in Lakeburgh for hundreds of years and every time these people suspected something out of the ordinary had been born, they always went to get this new anomaly before things became bad for him or her. That’s how they kept the powers in control and maintained peace in the world which was filled with all sorts of supernatural beings.I listened to her explanation for a good hour. Izer stayed beside me but didn’t talk. More than getting interested in her story, I was drawn toward Izer’s silence. It was unsettling and it hurt.I had tolerated his silent tr
