Hey Lovely Readers! I know it's been a long time since I updated this book. I also know that I made a promise to update it every Thursday and Sunday but failed to deliver. For that, I apologize. I was too caught up with my other book (Omega for the Alpha King) and some personal matters that I ran too short on time. To make up for everything, I have decided to make this book my priority from now on (if everything works out) and I will be updating it every day of this month! Hope you all stick with Izer and Scarlett until the end! Also, let me know what you all think about Izer and Scarlett at this point in the story! Love you all! ~S.Y
SCARLETT “ Nothing. ” He shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly. I pushed myself on my feet. “ you are sending me back? Back to where? Where do you think I can go back? ” “ To where you belong. ” The corners of his lips tipped in a vicious smile. My heart missed a terrible beat as I stepped back from him. I couldn’t stop myself from staring at the grim look in his eyes. I tried to match it with the viciousness of his smile but failed miserably. Everything seemed wrong. Even if it was the real him, he shouldn’t have been so different. “ Is it really possible for someone to act like a completely different person? ” The words slipped from my mouth unconsciously. His shoulders stiffened, and the grim look in his eyes dissolved behind a veil of indifference. “ You don’t know the real world. You are too naive. ” He whispered as he stuffed his cock back into his pants and pulled his zipper up. “ It’s my fault now? ” I couldn’t believe it. “ Whose fault is it then if not yours? ” Izer
SCARLETTIt was the first time that I looked at Dixon and confidently used the power I didn’t understand. “ Take me to Eddie and don’t tell Izer. ” I told him.His pupils had dilated before he nodded and led me to Eddie. The surety that this power would work and that I would be able to get things done from these pack members was bizarre. As long as Izer didn’t command them to not listen to me, they would always listen to me. It was a good thought.Dixon took me to the 50th floor of the building. There were many apartments on the floor but he led me straight to Eddie’s place.When the door opened and he saw us both standing outside, a frown appeared on his forehead.“ Luna. ” He nodded towards me reluctantly before facing Dixon. “ Beta. ”“ Luna wants to talk to you. ” Dixon pointed his thumb at me and stepped aside.“ Is everything fine, Luna? ” He swallowed his saliva and took a step back to allow me to enter his place.“ We can talk inside. ” I glanced around nervously.If Izer a
IZER “ Now I know how to get things done with you, Izer Primeblood. ” She whispered before her head rolled to the side, going limp.My gaze lowered to the pool of blood surrounding her body then rose to her hand, clutching the piece of glass tightly.“ Stupid girl. ” I sighed, grabbing her hand in mine.When my eyes focused on the marks surrounding her fingers, I paused. I couldn’t move for a moment. The sparks were not enough to wash off the anger.‘ Help her. ’ Xandros murmured, showing more mercy than I was capable of.Slowly, I uncurled her fingers from around the piece of glass and pulled it out of her hand. Her unconscious figure slipped down from against the wall.Before her head could hit the floor, I grabbed her nape and tugged her into my chest. Her body curled into mine, leaving no safe space between us.My dumb heart skipped a stupid beat against my will and refused to go back to beating on the same rhythm after that.I held her there involuntarily. I didn’t want to push
SCARLETT“ Why? ” I stared at his back. “ why do you hate me, Izer? ”He thought he could get rid of me just by telling me that he hated me? He was wrong. It did hurt me to hear that he despised me enough to not even want to look at me. But I was not letting it cloud my judgment. I already uncovered the worst truths of my life. I was not about to give up on knowing why he changed and hated me like I was a horrendous illness.“ One doesn’t need a reason to hate someone, Darling. ” He finally turned around and faced me.He was going to leave just a moment ago. I was sure. But, something was stopping him.What? I had no idea. I was not about to find out either. He wouldn’t tell me. He wouldn’t just open his fucking mouth and end this confusion.“ I hated you because you killed my parents, took me from my home, marked me without my consent. ” I pulled my trembling knees to my chest and wrapped my aching arms around them. “ I don’t believe someone can hate others without a reason. So, if
IZER“ What do you think? ” Dixon watched me patiently.I hummed, staring at the screen of his phone. What he was telling me was fucking hard to stomach.“ It doesn’t work, Alpha. With time, the powers were lost. Now…what Cadamus has with his people is his real bond. ” He placed the phone down and leaned back in his chair.“ His real bond? ” I cocked a brow, staring at the paused video.“ It has to be. Nothing else explains this. ” He sighed, running his fingers through his hair.“ What about memories? ” I wondered, looking up at him.“ You want to send Luna back for those…memories? ” He made it sound terrible.Because it didn’t mean anything to him.“ What if the world one day forgot all about your father? Your mother? ” My thumb grazed my lower lip as I asked him.He stiffened but didn’t answer. He had no answer, in fact. Because Dixon knew he would do the same if something like that had happened to him.The world that forgot about Mom and Dad had to remember them again. There was n
SCARLETTI couldn’t sleep the whole night. There was no way I would have let my guard down when Izer was so close.The irregular beats of his heart against my cheeks told me that he didn’t sleep either.We both just led in bed until the night changed into the morning. When the light fell on the room through the glass walls, I pushed him away one last time. He let me go. There was no struggle, no protest, no words exchanged.I went to the bathroom, washed up, and dressed up in casual blue jeans and a yellow crop top. My gaze lingered on my reflection in the huge mirror after I tied my hair in a ponytail.‘ It’s your last day here. ’ Izer’s voice whispered inside my head in repeat mode.Why did it have to be the last day? There was a constant ache inside my chest that I had to endure every day of the last week after he revealed his truth. I was grateful that he didn’t show up after that and I didn’t call him either.But last night, he just had to come and pour salts on my wounds. Now,
SCARLETT I stepped out of the car and approached the black Mercedes. Opening the passenger door, I climbed inside. Izer’s dominating scent engulfed my senses and caused my heart to skip a beat. I looked at the man sitting beside me. A soft breath escaped my mouth. His hair was perfectly combed back. He wore his signature black suit, with a white shirt underneath, tight on all his strong muscles. My throat dried, as my eyes flickered towards the side of his face. He turned his head and gave me his full attention. The darkness of his eyes threatened to make me weak against all my rational thoughts. It was wrong. So wrong. “ They will be here shortly. ” Izer spoke in a grim tone. “ Who? ” I whispered. “ You know who. ” His lips curled. “ Alpha King? ” I sighed, straightening in the seat and looking out of the windshield. “ I doubt he will come. He values his life too much to put it at risk. ” Izer scoffed. “ Then Rush? ” I wondered aloud. The aura shifted in the car. Temperat
SCARLETT“ He did a good job with that prosthetic eye. But I can’t say that about his arm. ” Izer chuckled, surprising me.His tone was sinister. It was enough to send chills down my spine. I remembered he had plucked Rush’s eye out, and taken his arm. How he did it, and the sheer pleasure on his face when he did it still haunted me. In the recent past days, I forgot how cruel he actually could be. It was better that he only opted for hurting me with his words.I shuddered and stared at Rush through the windshield. His eyes were fine, but if you focused too hard, you could tell that the right eye was hard and didn’t move as smoothly as the left one.My gaze lowered to his right hand, covered in a black glove. Whatever Rush did to me, at least, he didn’t deserve to get this permanent damage done to him.“ You are a…monster for enjoying something like this, Izer. ” I couldn’t help but whisper to him.“ I never said I was not. ” Izer opened the door and stepped outside.I sucked in a s
