Scarlett's POV

The man holding my mother looked at his friend and smiled in a creepy way. He said, "These people are no good. They don't have what we need. Let's kill them."

Elara was shocked and couldn't believe what she heard. She whispered softly, "Scarlett, those words... they're terrible. How did you find the strength to keep going?"

I looked down, my hands shaking, and gathered the courage to look at Elara. I said, determined, "Something inside me broke at that moment. The men's cruel plans and the way they treated us like objects made me feel a strong desire to fight back. I couldn't let them destroy us. I had to resist."

Elara nodded, impressed. She said proudly, "And you fought back indeed."

I took a deep breath and vivid memories flooded my mind. "I turned to my uncle, desperate, and whispered urgently, 'We can't let them win. We have to find a way to escape.'"

Elara leaned closer, offering comfort in the midst of the chaos. She asked with anticipation, "What did your uncle

    Scarlett's POV"Yes," I said with relief in my voice. "We were really determined and lucky, so we found a moment of rest. We ran faster than the people chasing us and left them confused. It was a short time when we were safe, and my uncle had to make a hard choice."Elara leaned closer, looking at me without moving her eyes, so I kept talking. "He took me to his house, a secret place where nobody could see us, so we could have a safe place to stay," I said gratefully. "We hid there for many days and nights, waiting for the storm to go away and the dangers to get smaller."There was a quiet pause while we all thought about what I was going to say next. Elara looked worried and asked gently, "What happened after that, Scarlett?" Her voice sounded a little scared.I took a deep breath and found the courage to share the sad truth. "We stayed there for weeks, and then my uncle finally told me the really sad news," I said, my voice shaking with sadness and acceptance. "He said my parents ha

    Scarlett's POVMy heart felt excited and scared as Elara called me from nearby. I reluctantly looked away from the old woman on the bench and hurried to join my friend.I asked Elara, "What's up? Who do you want me to meet?"Elara looked happy and led me to a small house in the corner of the village. She said, "There's someone I think you'll really like. Her name is Lila, and she knows how to find peace when things are chaotic."As we got closer to the house, we heard laughter and talking. I felt hopeful about making a new friend in this nice village.Inside the house, there were colorful decorations and comfortable cushions. A young woman with a calm smile sat on the floor, weaving a pretty tapestry. She looked up when Elara and I came in, and she seemed warm and curious.I watched the young woman stand up from her weaving, and she looked surprised. It was like seeing a friend I hadn't seen in a long time."Elara?" the woman said, sounding surprised and happy. She hugged Elara tightl

    Scarlett's POV"I can't believe we're doing this," Lila whispered, sounding worried."I know, but we have to. She needs to know," Elara replied with determination.Their quiet words made me more and more anxious. I wondered what they were talking about that was so important and urgent that they couldn't tell me directly. I tried my best to understand what they were saying."Scarlett will be very sad," Lila murmured, feeling guilty."I understand, but she deserves to know the truth. It's the right thing to do," Elara said firmly.Their words made me even more curious and worried. Time felt like it was going by so slowly, and I couldn't stop pacing back and forth, waiting for them to come back. I imagined all kinds of things based on their conversation, and I started feeling scared.Finally, the door opened slowly, and Lila and Elara came back into the room. I looked at them, hoping to find clues in their faces. Lila seemed worried and caring, while Elara looked determined yet understan

    Scarlett's POVI took a big breath, trying to calm myself down among all the strong feelings. Lila looked just as sad as me, and she nodded slowly. Her voice was soft and worried when she spoke."Yes, Scarlett. It was only a few days ago, about five days to be exact," Lila said, understanding in her eyes. "Swiftclaw's men came into our camp and wanted to know where you were. They were really desperate to find you and capture you. We were all really scared."I remembered that scary day when everything went wrong. Swiftclaw, a mean Alpha from another pack, was hunting me without stopping. He wanted all the power for himself and saw me as a danger."They had weapons, Scarlett," Lila continued, her voice shaking a bit. "They kept us prisoners and demanded to know where you were. We didn't know, but they wouldn't stop hurting us until we told them."I stood there, feeling sadder with each word Lila said. I remembered when Swiftclaw's men came to our camp and we felt really helpless and afr

    Scarlett's POVSummoning every ounce of courage, I finally found my voice. "Yes, I am Scarlett," I replied, my voice trembling slightly but determined. "I am the wife of the renowned Lycan King."The whispers rippled through the room again, but this time, I could see a mix of surprise and uncertainty in the faces of those around me. They had probably heard stories about the Lycan King's powerful reign and his mate, but meeting me in person must have been unexpected.The Alpha regarded me with a stern expression. "Why have you come to our kingdom? And how is it that you're aware of the troubles your actions caused our people?" he demanded, a hint of impatience in his voice.Elara stepped forward, standing beside me, her voice as firm as ever. "Alpha, you must know that Scarlett never intended to cause harm to your kingdom or its citizens. She was kidnapped by Swiftclaw and the consequences were beyond her control. The Lycan Kingdom has always maintained a strong and positive relationsh

    Scarlett's POVThe King's eyes softened, and he looked at Elara, taking a moment to consider my request. "You speak truly highly of her," he said with a smile. "Such devotion should be rewarded. Elara, do you wish to accompany Scarlett and take care of her in the palace?"Elara bowed her head slightly, her voice sincere. "Your Majesty, it would be an honor to continue serving and supporting Scarlett. I vowed to protect her, and I intend to keep that promise."The King nodded approvingly. "Very well, then. You may stay with her. But know that your presence comes with the responsibility to ensure her well-being," he said, his gaze shifting to me. "And, Scarlett, you shall have the best care available to you. The maidens assigned to you will be chosen for their skill and compassion. They will be dedicated to your comfort and safety.""Thank you, Your Majesty," I replied gratefully. "Your generosity knows no bounds."As the King's guards led us to the appointed chamber, I couldn't help bu

    Marco’s POVMy heart pounded in my chest as Sage and I followed the faint footprints deeper into the dark forest. The eerie silence around us only heightened my senses, and I couldn't shake the feeling that something was terribly wrong. The moonlight filtered through the thick canopy, casting a pale glow on the forest floor, but the shadows seemed to dance and shift, playing tricks on our eyes."Sage, keep your guard up," I whispered, my voice barely audible. "We don't know what we're dealing with here."He nodded, his eyes darting around as we continued to trace the footprints.As we followed the trail, I relied on my wolf sense to sniff the air, trying to catch any familiar scents. But something was off. The smell I expected to find—the scent of the old woman—seemed to have vanished."Sage, do you smell anything?" I asked, trying not to let my worry show.He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, using his own wolf senses to scan the area. "No, Marco. I don't smell anything. It's l

    Marco’s POVThe adrenaline coursed through my veins as I crouched in the thicket, my senses on high alert. The forest was still, and for a moment, I allowed myself to hope that I had successfully eluded the pursuing pack. But I knew better than to let my guard down. The danger was far from over.Breathing as quietly as I could, I carefully peered through the leaves, scanning the surroundings for any signs of movement. The forest canopy above me swayed gently in the breeze, and the rustling of leaves made it difficult to discern any other sounds. I strained my ears, listening for the telltale growls or footsteps that would signal the return of the wolves.Minutes passed like hours, and my muscles began to ache from the tension of remaining still. The forest seemed to hold its breath, and the silence was unnerving. Had they given up the chase? Or were they lying in wait, biding their time for the right moment to strike?Suddenly, a voice pierced the silence, and my heart skipped a beat.

    Marco’s POVMy heart was beating fast, and I was breathing hard as I watched Swiftclaw coming toward me, looking really angry. I couldn't see a way out of this, and I tried really hard to think of a solution."Wait, Swiftclaw!" I said nervously, my voice shaky with fear. "Let's talk about this. Whatever's bothering you, we can find a way to fix it without fighting."Swiftclaw growled angrily but stopped for a moment, seeming to think about what I had said. The air was really tense, and I was thinking quickly. I couldn't mess up."I don't feel like talking, Marco," Swiftclaw said angrily. "You've gone too far, and now you'll pay for it."I was panicking, trying to figure out how to get out of being frozen with fear. I couldn't let fear take over; I needed to stay calm and focused."Swiftclaw, please, listen to me," I continued, my voice shaking but determined. "I didn't mean to upset you, but whatever happened, we can fix it. We're friends, right? Friends don't hurt each other like thi

    Scarlett’s POV Before Swiftclaw could finish speaking, a spooky mist started oozing from the altar where Scarlett was tied up. It looked like a creepy snake, coiling around Swiftclaw, its dark tendrils moving towards him as he struggled. The room felt weird, like there was some strange power in the mist, and it got scarier by the second. Swiftclaw got really scared and started shouting as he turned into a big, scary wolf. He tried to fight off the dark mist, biting at it, which wanted to swallow him up. Scarlett was no longer in mortal danger, and she suddenly felt full of energy and determination. She knew she couldn't miss this chance. Her heart raced, and her hands were slippery with blood as she twisted and turned, trying to get free from the cold, unkind chains that held her down. Scarlett used all her strength to pull, and her wrists hurt as the chains cut into her skin, but she didn't give up. Her life depended on this moment, and she wouldn't let it slip away. The room got

    Scarlett’s POVMy heart ached as I struggled to process what was happening. "Elara, what is going on? Why are you here in that robe? We were supposed to be against Swiftclaw, weren't we?"Elara's lips quivered, and she seemed on the verge of saying something, but before she could respond, Swiftclaw's cold, mocking voice cut through the tension. "You think Elara was with you all these years, Scarlett? How naive. She has always been with me... throughout. I used her to get you where I wanted you to be."The shock of Swiftclaw's revelation hit me like a physical blow. I had trusted Elara with my life, and now it seemed that trust had been horribly misplaced. Betrayal stung in my chest, and I felt tears stream down my face. "Elara... How could you?" I whispered, my voice trembling with hurt.Elara's gaze fell to the floor, and she seemed unable to meet my eyes. "I had no choice, Scarlett," she finally replied, her voice filled with anguish. "Swiftclaw... he had something that could destro
