SCARLETTLove is far from me, I think I have to make him believe that I love him and keep on lying low in his pack till I am ready to think of how to go about my plan. Seeing this girl and the pack members don't like me hurt me a lot, but this wasn't the time to be emotional but smart.He thinks I am into him after the intimacy we had last night, which was my heart that went first. nightBefore my mind could know what was happening, I said some assurance words to him to keep the emotions in him flowing. I hope he keeps it in check.I will keep making him believe that I am in love with him… really love? I just can’t imagine myself loving someone like him in reality, I have to accept him as my mate, just for the mission.I strolled out of the house to the garden full of fruits and vegetables approaching me as a troop of warriors, with stone faces.I moved aside to give them a full space to march, but they halted and turned towards me, their eyes filled with anger.I avoided their faces
LUCASWhen I was sure I was out of Karen's pack, I climbed a tall tree beside the pack. I just faced towards the north making Karen assume that I had left the environment.I sighted a lady dressed in a red cape, she was forcing a smile on her face, smiling at everyone she came across.At first, I thought she wasn't the person I wanted to believe she was, but I was very wrong… she was here in Karen's pack.Just as Greg said, Karen was the one who rescued her.It’s Scarlett, Scarlett was the one dressed in a robe… my anger gave way to my wolf to be out, I was transforming into a wolf aggressively hanging still on the tree. I howled in anger, my claws were longer than before, and my eyes were dead as poison.I scanned and zoomed in Scarlett and Karen's direction, they were heading towards a big hall.I jumped down from the tree and mounted one of the warriors, my claws cut deeper into him, flinging anyone that came my way.I targeted the hall and moved towards the hall of initiation. T
SCARLETT Getting into his room, I helped him sit on the bed…His room is magnificent, for the way he stalks and comes to my pack talking and doing all stuff, I still haven't gotten used to this kind of him.Sometimes I tend to forget he is also a powerful Alpha acting like a weakling before me because of the mate bond. I still haven't figured out why he doesn't look for another girl and let me be… I don't want to give him false hope, I don't want to use him… I don't want to betray him.. but he keeps throwing himself in front of the already-sharpened dagger."Where can I get a towel and water?" I asked since this is the first time getting into his room. I don't want to act too forward.But all he just did was sit there staring at me until I snapped my fingers in front of him."I asked a question, mister," I reminded him, seeing how he was so lost a few seconds ago."Scarlett, you know you can get it in the bathroom… stop acting like a guest, you are my mate after all." Not wanting t
KAREN“You’re the last man I expected to get my mate drunk for no reason, you initiated the idea right?" I asked Addison standing five feet away."I only did that for the safety of the pack… she caused more harm than good to the pack” Addison replied with an eye roll. One reason why I also don't like Addison at all, he does things without orders."You and I know that she is just here to be safe from her father’s discipline," I grumbled."Your words are just filled with lies," Nathan suddenly said from behind.Nathan, just stood there staring at us at first, he occasionally served the clan territory and knew the laws guiding the four packs in the clan. He was married to a witch who was once mortal. He is my best friend. I know what he is capable of doing… but I doubt he also doesn't know about the question I was asking.. Even if his best friend's only happiness was being with a mate who embarrassed and rejected him, Nathan still won't agree to it."Nathan!" Addison called in shock, l
SCARLETTI came back to the hall after meeting with Alpha Kris, smiling at Rhoda, she offered the cinnamon mixed wine to me."You are back… I thought you were going to rat us out about it drinking with us to the Alpha." She murmured with a forced smile."Nah, he only called to discuss some things with me.." I replied with a smirk."Hmm.." she mumbled again sipping her wine staring, to see if I had started mine."What's your name?" I asked curiously, of which she smiled at."Rhoda…"I gulp in the wine with my eyes closed, wanting to see if Karen would keep to his words.I could see the big smile that appeared on Rhoda's face the moment I drank it.I stumped the cup on the table and looked up to see them staring at me with curious gaze."Any probs?" I asked with a forced smile, as I wasn't the type who fancy wine that much."Nah, I am just curious to know if you like it," she said, pretending to continue drinking hers." Like it? No" They all stared at me to know exactly what I meant, a
KARENScarlett fell to my feet, breathing heavily, and dizzy, she lost consciousness instantly.I was confused about the reason she was running, who she was running from, and all.The last thing she wanted me to do is to save her from what exactly? But she wasn’t chased by anyone? Or I did not see anyone coming? I look up to check but there.I noticed that immediately after she fell, she gave out a sigh of relief before passing out.I carefully looked around before carrying her on my shoulder to my room for treatment, still wondering what the hell happened.Agitated, I paced the room thinking of who might be chasing her, I could not sleep, I kept checking her temperature which was running cold, it seemed her body was shaking with a strange energy. I need to make sure she has enough rest, but how would she rest? I don’t know if she’s been chased.She looks gentle lying on the bed helplessly, I remember when I kissed her, her lips were so tender. It seemed impossible to term Scarlett
SCARLETT"Who do you ask for and how the hell did you get here without no one noticing?" Karen let out in a very deep dangerous tone, one won't know that he was the one talking very gently a few seconds ago."I seek for Lady Scarlett.." That voice, I wasn't that focused on his face to notice he is until he speaks."Oh my God, it's you…" I called in shock recognizing who is, I could notice Karen's claws disappeared."You know him?" Karen asked with his voice still eerie, until I nodded my head. Did his eyes color change back to their normal human color?The young man standing in the doorway is Thompson, my cousin’s best friend, my eyes widened as I saw him looking pale and drained."What's is wrong?" I asked not having a good feeling about what his answer was going to be like.“He has been missing for some weeks now," Thompson said, tired he looks like someone who went hunting but caught nothing he looks distressed.“You mean my cousin has been missing for some weeks and no one came to
KARENScarlett was restless yesterday night, she could not close her eyes, I guess she loved the person who was missing so dearly.I watched her, till sleep caught up with me.When I woke up I saw her already moving around. She was the first to be awake, she was already prepared for the search before I and Thompson woke up."Scarlett… are you okay?" I couldn't help but ask, I knew she wasn't but I wanted to hear from her."I couldn’t sleep" she confesses, she then touched her head."My head aches so bad," she continued…. I was happy she was beginning to warm up to me and tell me little things like this."When we are back, you would have enough rest and food, you were not able to eat enough last night, though, you gave the food to Thompson," I said, as I move close to her massaging her shoulder."It’s fine," she said, removing my hand from her shoulder.“Are we Ready?” Thompson asked also ready to move."Sure," Scarlett and I replied in unison.I was not aware that Rhoda was looking at
WARNING ❗❗❗TORTURE AHEAD NEXT DAYThe morning was bright and more peaceful than other days, but the glooming environment could be felt all over the pack.Rhoda, already lost her life before she was brought out of the well, and for some reasons I felt sorry for her, though I didn't like her but never wished for her to have that ending. It was said that the death of her parent came to her as a shock, and couldn't bear and decided to commit suicide.Karen came out of the hall, with a bundle of sticks and an igniter. While I approached him."I want to burn her, but her body is still soaked in water," Karen said already knowing my question.I didn't want to push the issue knowing Rhoda's death also hurt him, he lost three important people in his life in a role and I could understand his gloominess.“She needs to be dried up before burning her into ashes, that I understand,” I said as I opened the cover slightly.Rhoda’s body was already swollen and having a pungent odor . “But What ab
SCARLETT"Hey Scarlett! Open your eyes.." I felt someone shaking me seriously pleading for me to open my eyes."Stop smiling and open your eyes damn it!" I heard the familiar voice called again.I fluttered my eyes open and loomed around to see I was on the ground and in the arms of a familiar warmth I can never forget."Karen?" I called to be sure I wasn't already with thank goodness."Thank goodness you are fine, didn't I want to be careful and not let any harm come to you or the park member?" I kept fluttering my eyes still in the state of shock not knowing what to say."You are alive?" I asked and pulled him in for a tight embrace, I didn't know how to thank the moon goddess for sending him back to me, I was so delighted being in his warm hold again."Thanks a lot for being alive! I promise not to misuse this opportunity again," I cried out as he pulled me more tightly.Then I pushed him away, "Then you shouldn't have made me believe you were dead." I hit his chest recalling how h
SCARLET"Nancy, stay with me please," I cried as I held her almost cold body." I can't lose another important soul."Nancy, please.. Please…" I continued shaking her, "We need to take her to the pack, before she give.." Nathan stopped talking when he recalled what we were currently go through.Nancy face was paled and I could see how Nathan struggled to stand well, I lost Karen and doesn't even know how to break the news and here is Nancy also dying.Nancy suddenly gripped me pulling me to her so she could talk, "Yo… you.. your blood can save me." She struggles to breathe and of which I was quick to catch on."I picked up her dagger and sliced my palm, dropping my blood into her wound, she groaned painfully, making tears almost dropping out of my eyes.It was just like Karen had groaned painfully, and I couldn't even do anything… "Go save them, I am entrusting them on you." Continuously wiping my tears as my blood kept dripping into her wound. I sliced m uhh palm again, but Nathan st
Nathan pov"Aww.,," I groaned as I felt something hit my head, fluttering my eyes open. I was met with Nancy before me, glaring at me badly."That's hurt." I grumbled, but she just rolled her eyes. "This is no time for you to take a nap." She retorted and sat on the ground innocently like she didn't just hurt me."Hey, that's not fair, I was negotiating, " I murmured and looked ahead to see some warriors coming out of the way.If we had known on time that we already have a traitor, Alpha wouldn't have gone to save Scarlett that way. The moment we got to the pack, we were shocked to see, my pack already turned to that filled with slaves. It was too late to turn backa and save Scarlett pack members, we had no choice but to surrender so we didn't lose more lives. I still hope my one would still be able to hold on, I lost my brother already. I don't know how I would feel if I also lost her."Still can't believe the King had been behind all this." Nancy whispered with a crack voice. I th
I waited for a few more minutes but still didn’t feel any sort of pain or pleasure like have thought, I then opened my eyes hoping because I went numb was the reason whyOnly to see Karen behind me, and Henry bitting deep into his hands, “ What the fuck dude!’ Henry yelled and released Karen.Karen choked him on his neck and was punching him continuously, his eyes were no longer the way it always seems. You need no soothsayer to tell he was more than furious.Henry warriors rushed toward them trying to pull but Karen was way too stronger than them. When Karen was exhausted He stopped throwing him far away and rushed to where I squatted.“Scarlett, get a grip of yourself.” I felt him shaking me, who was still in shock of being marked by the bastard.Here Karen comes again to save me, even though it caused him a lot of pain, he is always the one giving without me even returning his help for once. Still he doesn’t care but always made me his priority. I felt too guilty to even look up t
“What?” I asked to be sure of what he just said, was he not the one who rejected me? Now what?You heard me right, you will be mine soon,” he said and moved closer to me.“Stay away from you bastard!” Just on cue, I felt a silver blade beside my neck the moment I abused him. I looked toward my right side to see It was his Beta, I didn’t notice he was also in his room.“Seethe your sword! She is your future Queen” he roared, of which the Beta did instantly. That was the reason why he had felt familiar the moment I saw him, in my pack we had had our encounter in the past.And he apologized for being too late to me in my pack then because he wanted to have me back.“News flash! Karen is my one and true mate, there is no way I will be your queen so stop dreaming,” I retorted and stood from the bed.“The likes of the so-called mate you want, his pack members, and yours are in my hands…” he pushed me back with a finger and traced his hands till it got under my shin and raised my head up.“
SCARLETTI find myself walking into the familiar woods I always played when I was still a kid, "how did I get here?" I asked no one in particular.I kept walking and walking until I was deep in the wood, I wanted to stop but it was like a force was the one controlling me.I only stopped walking when I found my favorite play spot."You can't catch me!" I heard an angelic little girl's voice, I looked behind me to see a small version of me running around with a grown boy. I couldn't help but wonder who the boy was.Hi, I could tell it wasn't Lucas, but why the hell didn't I recall this exact scene? My head was only filled with me playing with Zoe, Lucas and Nancy."Ahhh!" The little me giggled and from on the ground as the boy tickled me."I told you to run fast," the boy said and continued tickling me.“Sto… stop it.. Hen.. Henry,” my little me managed to breathe out but Henry didn’t stop.“It’s a punishment dear I won’t stop,” I cracked up my brain trying to recall if I ever recall a
ROLS 99“Make sure to take good care of them,” I told Nancy and Nathan. I was on my way to the palace to take Scarlett and it was very dangerous leaving just her members there.I also needed to get Addison buried and some ceremony for him, Nathan was devastated hearing the news of his twin brother’s death, he hasn’t been in a good mood since he heard it.I haven’t been able to have a good conversation with Rhoda because of the issues. She kept acting like she didn’t care but I could see the hurt in her eyes when she was told about the baby’s father’s death.“Make sure to keep an eye on Zoe, she mustn’t escape from your grasp,” I warned dangerously as they both nodded again.“I trust you both on this,” with that, I and my gamma started our journey to the palace.My wolf hasn’t been in a good mood after losing a friend and also his mate being unconscious.I climbed onto my horse which was among the horses brought by my men to help transport some of the weak members and left.A few hours
KAREN“Lucas!” I growled as I and my warriors stormed into his pack, some members rushed out all looking weak and tired, I could see fear in their eyes as they knew who I was and dared not do anything daring at me.“Look who is here,” I heard the lady who has been following what Lucas does and is now an enemy of mine even though I could see clearly that she isn't treated well by lucas.“Grab her,” I ordered and immediately Zoe was pulled by one of my warriors and a dagger was placed on her throat.“Let me go you bastard haven’t you all done enough.?” She asked with fear evident in her voice.“Take me to your mate and I will let you go,” I ordered.“There will be no need for that,” Lucas came out also doing the same thing I saws doing to hisi wa to Rhoda.Rhoda face was filled with bruises and the robe she was putting on was torn showing her pultruding tommy. One could tell that her baby was going to come at any time. In anger I pulled Zoe toward me and broke her right arm. The sound
