Noah POVHe begins to return with another mug in his hand, but this time it isn’t a tea but a dark liquid that seems to be bitter and awful from the appearance.He sits on the bed again and reaches out the cup to me. "Here, drink it without hesitation.” He demands.I don’t question him; I grab hold of the mug and attempt to pour it all down my throat, but the strong smells disrupt me. It’s smelling so strong that it makes my stomach twist."Go on; you need to rest.” He gives my shoulder a soft squeeze, and then I nod. I shut my eyes and pour it all into my mouth. As predicted from the surface, it’s extremely bitter.But it seems more effective than the taste because my bones seem to be vibrating as soon as I empty the mug."You should sleep now.” He takes the mug from me as I lay my back on the bed while my head is on the pillow.I fold my hands around my chest and shut my eyes. The drink makes my body feel heavy and dizzy; I couldn’t wrestle but to let the sleep take over...After s
Dave POV"You might need to get out of my room because I’m about to get down to business.” I get down from the bed and tap a finger on her cheek slightly."If I realize you are lying to me about my family, I swear you will fucking pay!” She barks, because that’s all I see when she looks really wild at me. The whole torture must be telling on her, and she looks like someone who is about to fall sick. She is extremely pale."There is no reason I will deny that fact because there is fucking nothing you can do to me. I have no business with your family if they are not among the people I have captured.”“ Liar!” She sticks out her claws and scratches them on my arm. My arms begin to bleed in front of her, causing Jessica to gasp.She quickly rushed to get a wipe towel and wrap it around the place while I stared at Scarlet, who doesn’t seem to be remorseful for what she just did.She breathes heavily as I continue to stare at her with plain eyes. "Are you satisfied with hurting someone who
Scarlet POV The gate was shut in my face and I was placed inside the jail right away. "Leave this fucking place, please!" I tap the gate with my hand while glancing around the cell's grounds. It's pretty cold and too dark for me to see clearly. "Dave Alpha I intend to murder you!" I yell as loud as I can. I don't understand why he would throw us into the cell again and why the whole pack is now so rowdy. I wish I could kill him already because he seem to be loosing his mind. Is he taking us back to torture? I feel like a slave, abandoned and imprisoned, and none of the guards are around anymore. I begin to cry because I feel powerless. And the more I feel like killing him, the more he gets me intimidated and I end up doing nothing to the bastard. If I had followed Supreme's advice then I wouldn't end up being in the cell again. But then, following her advice meant I was abandoning everyone that I'm meant to fight fall. How do we all get out of this fucking trap? I never would hav
Noah POVToday is the second day since Mr. Faze begin the treatment on my stomach and it seem to be working effectively because the pain doesn’t seem severe anymore.I lay on the bed as he comes to give me the herbs again and apply some ointment on my stomach. There is this harshness in the herbs that seems to burn the pain for a seconds then it relieves me.“After this treatment, you can finally leave because you are better now.” Mr. Faze says and I smile.“ Did you send the letter?” I ask him and he nods, smiling as though there is so much gist attached to it.“The reaction was expected. He has surrounded the pack with so many soldiers and they are all on guard for your return. He is definitely scared of you and he seems shocked.” He explains and I smile.“ Well, we should leave this place already.” I tell him as I get on my feet, feeling completely okay and the pain seems to have faded away.“ Then we are going to?” he asks.“ My house of course.” I tell him, but he frowns.“ Your
Noah POVI stare at the fucking bastard standing in front of me, with great disgust. How is he even an Alpha in the first place? I cannot bring myself to understand. Where did my dad find a monster like this and decided to mingle? He is better dead than alive.As I consider sparing him for one second, just one second of retreating because I won’t want to kill him immediately, then see him stepping away from me. I look at him and his lips are trembling tremendously. He is completely terrified.. and that is how it should be. A chuckle escape from my lips when I couldn’t find his fucking boldness, where this it go to?I let out a mischievous smile and grab his shoulder. He stills as though he is frozen with intense fear that is enough to get his pant wet down there and then, I conjure up my flame. I send it through my hands and into the right side of his body where my hand is holding his right shoulder.I watch him scream in horror as the flames consume his shirt and then begin to lick
Scarlet POVI step out of the cell tentatively. It has been roughly a week since Supreme and I were put in the cage. Forgive my uncertainty of the length of time, but it’s hard to keep track of time when you are locked up in a cage like an animal when you’re grieving, in pain and mentally exhausted.Being locked in a cage has a way of fucking with your mind. That is exactly what had been happening with Supreme and I. That’s why when Noah came, I was convinced that it was just a fragment of my mind that was joking around with me.I turn around and look at Noah who walks out of the cell after Supreme. It’s all still surreal, the fact that he is here and he is alive. Some part of me is expecting to wake up on the cold floors of the cage and find that this is just a good dream.He stands beside me and takes my hand and I am reminded that it is real. He is really here. The love of my life is here. The one that died in my arms four months ago. It is hardly believable but he has promised to
Supreme's POVI wave them goodbye as I watch them exit out of the pack. I can’t fucking explain how excited I am to see those smiles on Scarlet’s faces again, and the only reason for that is Noah. I couldn’t believe I dared to take those smile away from her face and Dave? He did the icing on the cake. I guess Karma is real because, his life is about to burn into ashes!I continue to wave until the last member of Noah’s pack go out of sight through the gate.I am really going to miss them, but I need to do this and that is why I’ve decided to stay back. I need to get my closure, revenge and teach Dave a fucking lesson. I need to avenge the pain, by torturing Dave and all of his pack members, including Jessica. I do not mind asking everyone to kneel, as long as the evil girl will kneel.A grin escape out of my lips as the guard shut close the entrance gate of the pack. I toss around as I wipe the tiny tears away from the brink of my eyes, then my eyes falls on Jessica, who is still o
Scarlet's POVI gaps so hard that my lungs hurt when I hear the strange voice speaking from the book.I step back in shock as I clutch my hands around the end of the wall, breathing heavily in fear.The sound of the voice stir up some reaction that my body automatically activates it's flight survival mode. The hairs all over my body are on edge and I begin to take off out of the room when I immediately flare the door open. I’ve never seen a book talking.As I begin to run, I scan around for Noah and I think I lost my voice because I could hardly scream out his name.My eyes catches him standing some yards away from the workers rebuilding the damage houses again, and I instantly begin to run towards him with my heart pacing about.I sight him some distance away and his brow climbs up his face in confusion, “What’s wrong? Are you okay Scarlet?" He grabs my shoulder and gently holds me in front of him so he can see my face. I am sure that my face which was totally pale from the torture a
Scarlet POVI don’t believe that Noah is so skilled with these spells. As soon as he locked Ravet up so he wouldn’t wake up and get his freedom again, Noah set the whole place ablaze with magic."How did you know about that?” My eyes widen, and my mouth falls open."I read a lot, baby.” He comes closer as he glues his lips to mine, kissing me unexpectedly.“ Gosh. I miss your lips so much.” He smiles as he throws me into his arms, and then he summons up a passage for us to return to the pack. Just the same way we got here."And I miss everything about you, Noah.” I whisper as I rub his chest, staring so long at his face as though I haven’t seen him for a decade."We have a lot to catch up on. Let’s go back home first.” He plants a kiss on my forehead as he steps into the passage, while I cling to him by wrapping my hands around his neck tightly."I'm glad we were fine in the end.” I say this as we appear back in our bedroom, at the exact spot where we stayed."You need to rest; you lo
Scarlet POVI’m back in this place again, but this time to fight and defeat Ravet, who is a fucking dick for not being able to take his eyes off someone’s woman.I walk through the aisle, embedded in silence. I think this trap isn’t going to work this time because I have already attained a realm here, and that will keep me from falling into the trap.Noah walks through behind me, and I quickly give him the signal that someone is coming to attack him from behind.He catches the sign as soon as possible and is able to rebuke the spells that were about to be cast on him.I smirk, knowing that Noah isn’t going to accept defeats this time. He takes full control of the fight, and his spells seem to be stronger than theirs as the guy gets trapped in Noah's spell."Be trapped.” He shoves his hands at another one, running all the way from the next door beside the entrance of the hallway.I break into a run as I sense something strange. Ravet is doing something that will lead to a massive break
Scarlet POVI hold Michelle beside me as I approach the staircase. I look around the mansion and rub my hands on the furniture. I miss my home so much.I don’t believe I was back in my pack. It still feels like a dream. My eyes are still so heavy with tears as I stare at Noah and my best friend. It feels so great, and I didn’t think Noah would ever find a way back to me."Come with me to the room; you need to rest, Scarlet.” He trails his eyes around my body, then a deep frown settles on his face when he realizes the scar on my wrist. It isn’t a big deal; it was just the way Ravet held me so tight when he was taking me to the dark room."Did he hurt you?” his voice deeper as his eyes get fiercer."No, it’s nothing, Noah. It was just a minor scar.” I explain, but the anger remains in his eyes."I would fucking break him.” He says under his breath while he puts his hand around my waist so he could lead me to the room that we both shared.I couldn’t say a word. And the way he held me rem
"Where are you taking me?” Panic fills my voice as Ravet wraps his fist tightly around my wrist."To a safe place.” His tone is a bit stern, as if he is upset or something."What is happening? Why is the whole castle rowdy?” I shout on top of my voice because of how noisy it is, as if people were getting ready for some battles."We received a threat, and we might be attacked anytime soon.” He shouts at the top of his lungs."I don’t get it. By who? Ain’t you a sorcerer?” I’m a bit confused by his whole composure. The Ravet, I know, shouldn’t be shaken by any threat."The threat is from the most powerful coven, and I don’t know what it is about yet. I just need to protect you first before I focus on dealing with the issue." He says this and still takes me forward as he walks fast."Can't I protect myself? Didn’t you say I have attained some realms in the coven?” I argue, still not getting the point."You don’t know how to use it yet. So it is the same as being futile because you can’t
Scarlet POV“ Give me your hand, Scarlet. Do not be scared.” He whispers in his deep voice. I stretch out my shaking hands to him and he brings out a knife from his pocket.“ You might not want to see this, you can close your eyes.” He instructed, I nod as I take my eyes to the other side while I feel the knife cutting through my flesh.“ Arghh!” I growl for a while as my wolf tried to reduce the pain and make me heal faster.He pour my blood into a bowl and he finally let go of my wrist. I hold my wrist as I feel the pain, it begin to close up suddenly as the pain reduces.I watch Ravet shut his eyes closed as he begin to mutter some words that I couldn’t understand. Then he lift the bowl containing my blood up as though he is doing some witchcraft that I still do not know yet.Once he is done, he throws the bowl to the ground as the blood splashes all over the floor.“ What are you doing?” my eyes widen as I didn’t expect that. And suddenly I begin to feel strange heat from the insi
Scarlet POVI heard his voice all the way from my dream as though I was having a nightmare, causing me to snap my eyes open.I suddenly wake up to see that he is reading while he sits on the table close to the window.My hair is quite a mess, as it’s all over my body. I narrow my eyes as I try to adjust to the morning sunlight.When my eyes are completely open, I see that I’m totally naked in bed, and the only thing giving me coverage was the thick white blanket.Damnit. I grit my teeth as I feel so much hatred for myself. My stomach churned from so much sick feeling and the fact that I woke up naked in his damn bed.This is the biggest mistake of my life, and I better think of a way to get out of the mess. How do I even want to do that because I’m fucking clueless and feel like I’m trapped here forever?Or how the fuck do I explain everything to Noah? How would he believe me after I had allowed another man to touch me? Gosh, he would look at me with disgust and hate me like shit."S
Scarlet POV I think I shouldn’t have asked Ravet to teach me about spells yesterday, and now I don’t know what to do because he expects us to consummate our marriage, and I do not want any of that. I grab my white towel as I step out of the bathtub and wrap it around my body. I slide into a light red night gown and wear some fragrances while I sit in front of the mirror. I’m going out to spend some time with Tiana and Katherine; it wouldn’t be bad if I asked them some questions about the leader of the coven. Was there any benefit to their wives? They must be. Just as you are the wife of an Alpha, when he marks you, you possess some powers that he does. I turn off the light in my bedroom and step out. I walk slowly in the hall as it is a bit dark and it is just past 7 p.m. I know Ravet wouldn’t be in his room by now. He has business to attend to, and he still needs to entertain most of the visitors that came for the party. As I walk, I hear some noises coming from my right, and t
Scarlet POVI begin to walk inside the library between the library shelves as the light comes up.I’ve been trying to figure out how to start learning the spell or Latin, and I just have to do it real quick because I’m sick and tired of this place. I fucking can’t wait to leave!I stomp my feet hard on the floor as I complain in my head. Shit, the sharp pain in my head increases after what I just did. How can I forget so soon that my head has been in a worse condition?I pack my gown into one side; it’s quite long and thick, and it makes me so uncomfortable. Especially when I have to walk a little fast and smart.I’m sure Ravet is still sleeping in the bedroom after last night’s party, and if he should be awake anytime soon, then I will be doomed, and that means that I might not be able to read voluminously today.Whatever way I need to get started, I climb through one of the chairs that I spotted beside a table, since I do not have the patience to find a ladder around. I go up on the
Scarlet POVI wake up with the worst headache ever. My head is pounding heavily and I open my eyes. The bright sun shines into it and I groan, looking away from the bright beams. I stand up and get out of my bed.I head to the bathroom. I am still in the black dress that Katherine and Tiana prepared and helped me wear the previous night.I look at my face in the mirror and even though my makeup is intact, I still somehow look like crap. I run my hands through my hair and wonder what the heck is going on with me.I brush my teeth, take a cold bath, do my daily routine and head out into the room again. My headache somehow gets better but it is still there and my head is still throbbing. I walk into the closet and pick the simplest of all the elegant dresses that are hanging up in the closet.I stuff my body into a corset and all the whole I am doing it, I am complaining bitterly under my breath. I know I am going to have to endure this shit for a long while more. It irritates me but the
