THIRTY-NINE.It was morning, and the bedroom which belonged to the Delta of the Scarlet Heart Pack was… bloody.It was the most suitable term to describe the unsightly state of the bedroom. Ranging from the expensively tiled white marble floors that were now covered in blood, to the walls. Singularly, the entire place was a mess.Numerous maids, despite their unwillingness, were ordered to clean the room by the Head Maid. Surely, their dissents would forever remain irrelevant, so they had to do it unless they were tired of working as a maid here.Currently, the maids dispersed to the different angles of the bedroom but were so amazingly terrified by the excess blood and remained motionless for a while.One, in particular, couldn't stop gawking uncomfortably at the bedsheets that were practically drenched in blood. The mattress lay on the floor since the bed wood had seemingly been broken.Did the Alpha King do this? There was no denying it – his anger the previous night was pretty dan
For the umpteenth time, he dialed the Alpha's number and just like before, it couldn't connect. A frustrated groan elicited from the beta's lips as he made his way to the dining table.It was the next morning and as frightening as it was, neither Alpha Shawn nor Michelle had called him. Andrew wasn't entitled to feel this unease, then again, considering the mood of Shawn when he left last night, he had every right to feel troubled.A full moon occurred the previous night and with that amount of rage surging through an Alpha's soul, who knows what might have happened to Derek? Surely, Shawn would succeed in saving Michelle. Then again, what about Derek?No one would stop him from attacking him, yet Andrew feared he might have gone overboard.He spent partly half of the night worrying about that, but the others were spent on thoughts about someone else – Raven.Pondering throughout the night surely got him highly starved, and so Andrew went straight to the dining table once he was done
Severely, the phone rang and without being told who was calling, Liana knew it'd be Lita, the nurse from the hospital Derek worked in. It wasn't unexpected that her frequent calls kept flowing in due to how profusely the nurse cared for the gynecologist. Sadly, Derek was rather an insensitive jerk when he wasn't being watched or seen. As much as he portrayed himself as a loving doctor, those sweet smiles would cease whenever he was behind a closed door.He wasn't hypocritical, instead considered it to be a mandate when he'd be around patients – Derek's smiles were unconditioned when it came to his patients and Michelle.So yes, the others were insignificant and, well, his nanny hoped he'd change that because of Lita. Even a blind man could see she felt something for him. “Ca-can't I at least come over to visit him? I don't mind that doctor Derek will be unconscious, I… just want to see his face” Lita's tiny voice said from the other end of the phone. Liana let out a light sigh and
In a word, the restaurant was… expensively beautiful. Michelle was lost for words as her eyes beheld the beauty of the place.To think that a place like this existed in the Pack was too much for her to comprehend – why hadn't she seen such a beautiful place on the news or television?“I got it built this month, Elle. I disallowed the media from broadcasting it” Shawn's soothing voice broke into her thoughts, and Michelle snapped out of it.“Huh…? It's astonishing!” thoughtlessly, she blurted and the widespread on his lips expanded into a wide grin that displayed accomplishment.Sincerely, he got the place built specifically for Michelle – no one knew her simple taste more than him, yet he established a restaurant that embodied his perfectionist taste and hers.Shawn wanted to apologize and start all over again with her in a special place – he wanted Michelle to be his once more in the sweetest way.Currently, both lavishly yet enchantingly gorgeous couples stood at the pathway of the
Was…was his heart even beating at this point? Shawn didn't know – he was unaware of everything and anything that was happening.The sole thing he and his wolf were capable of comprehending was Michelle's absence – his mate, their mate, was still in that burning building.She needed to be safe.A second wasn't wasted anymore before the Alpha King, Shawn, in front of his underlings, metamorphosed into his gorgeous wolf and then hurled himself into the burning restaurant.“Your Majesty!” almost everyone present yelled in astonishment once he leaped in. Will the Alpha be alright?Even for a surreal being like himself, the flames of this fire were abnormally strong.Could no one seriously tell? As the Alpha went into the excessively burning establishment, the firefighters focused fully on extinguishing the flames.Some held different extinguishers, while other hoes blurted out profuse water; all were centered on the burning building.Yet…a single ember of flame wasn't put out – it kept bur
Based on the Alpha's situation, everyone was oblivious to the time morning came. None were yet to comprehend how such a massive, and destructive fire started.None were yet to get over the heart-wrenching mindset that either their loved ones were gone forever or mortally injured.Indeed, it was a gloomy day in the Pack. The hospitals were stacked with wounded wolves, the law enforcement agencies gathered at the burnt crispy restaurant, and the others who were fortunate enough to escape balled their eyes out.Among the heartbroken souls was the Alpha King, Shawn. His situation was unarguably the worst – for an Alpha of his status to allow such to happen, and losing his mate… Michelle placed him in a pitiful condition.Due to Raven's quick-thinking and ethereal powers, she was able to pluck out Shawn from the midst of that burning furnace, yet a lot of damage had already been done.Despite being in his compelling wolf state, the fire was seemingly ignited more by the presence of a gaseo
Ever since the break of dawn, a certain thought refused to leave her mind. Initially, it was nothing disturbing, but the more she pondered about it, it turned bothersome.Raven, the black witch who was somehow considered a heroine by the other maids because she sensed a fire occurrence the previous night, could be seen at the compound.Was she supposed to be here? No – the Head assigned her to solely take care of the garden today. It did come as a shock to her since her workload could be considered bulky.Then again, the beta had seemingly requested for it to be lessened and though Raven was grateful, she couldn't stop thinking about the Scarlet Heart Pack.It's callous Alpha, Sebastian, to be specific. Lately, she thought about her beloved that was still there – waiting, praying, and hoping for her to come back to him; her brother, Chris.Certainly, it has been a while since she failed woefully in her mission, and to keep herself alive, succumbed to the will of this Pack.Yet, her mi
At the sight of Michelle lying unconscious and bonded like some sort of animal, Derek's body automatically rushed to her side.As he rushed to her, Sebastian himself walked towards the orchestrator of the entire thing, Rita. Both stood beside each other, but none spared the panicking gynecologist a glance.“Michelle! Chelle!” a bit fearfully, he called slowly as he lowered himself to the floor.His hands trembled uncontrollably as they reached for her slightly bloody face. Her lips were badly bruised, and probably she was handled roughly, so yes they were slight cuts all around.Singularly, Michelle was a mess. Yet none could deny how alluring she was – even in a state like that, her beauty outshone a handful of dressed females.Gently, Derek placed her head on his thighs, then his eyes roamed through every part of her. The cuts were the only form of injury on her body – seemingly, the flames of the fires didn't come as close as a mile to her skin.Yes, everyone in the Pack was highly
