Scarlet POVIt’s Monday again, I hang my backpack on my shoulder as I slowly approach my class. I know I’m late, but I don’t feel any energy to walk fast so I won’t end up being in trouble.I walk into the class, the teacher is not here yet. I spot my seat and saunter towards it. I noticed Noah is not in class, and I know he is never late unlike me.I stare at his empty seat, don’t know why I feel weird that he is not in class. I don’t know why I’m reacting to it as well. I ought not to care if he is in class or not because we have nothing to do with each other anymore.I take out my book and pen as I await the teacher. I’m sure it’s Mr Jack who is coming today. We are currently having chemistry and he teaches chemistry.“ Good morning class.” Speaking of the devil, he enters with a large smile on his face. Weird though. We mumble back as he continues to speak.“ So we gonna be teaching our favorite subject today.” He smiles as he meets eyes with me. I dropped my eyes suddenly , knowi
Noah POVI missed yesterday class because I had to sacrifice it for Michelle. She didn’t want me to go, I had to stay back because I couldn’t bear to see her cry.I don’t know how I will make up for the chemistry class that I missed. I know if I ask Scarlet to help me out, she wouldn’t even withstand my presence. There’s no used to asking her, maybe I should just read up myself. I know the topic after all.I hear the first bell of the class. I don’t want to be late so I begin to walk fast, I’ve never been late to any of the class, anyway.I enter the class and I see Scarlet leaning at her desk as if she feels sick or something. I’m tempted to go close to her but I stopped myself. She is still so mad at me and I wouldn’t want her to hate me more. I guess I have to give her enough time and space.I walk passed her without saying a word as I settle down on my seat, behind her. Knowing that someone just sat behind her, she lifted her head from the table as she turns to stare at me.“ Hi.”
Scarlet POV Life sucks.. No! This school sucks. I know my life has always been miserable before I came into this school, but this school is like icing on a cake. When life sucks…. It really fucking sucks. I’ve tasted how miserable life can be, but this.. is what I never expected. I’m miserable to the core. Pretty sure that was me, when I passed by the crowd at the school hallway. I didn’t bother to check what was happening , that would be exposing my ass. I sure did eavesdropped but not that I wanted to.. it was coincidental. “ men are scums” Shit. Did someone discover the letter or am I just overthinking things? God, please no.. Not that I regret writing it.. I had to.. I needed to.. My breathing tightens, nobody would know it’s me anyway. I didn’t write my nam- Wait! I wrote “J” the first letter of my surname. But would that be easily known? Gosh, I shouldn’t have written it..I’m just so used to the habit of writing letters and adding my name at the end of the piece of shit
Scarlet POVIt’s Saturday, at least I will have a peaceful weekend away from school and pushing those words written by the “he” in that letter behind my mind. Mom drove by the school and picked me up.She couldn’t handle the fact that I still have days at school not going on a break anytime soon, the semester is bulky, picking me up and taking me home for the weekend was the best she could think of.She misses me, I miss her like hell. I stared so long at her as she drive, loathing on the fact that my beauty was not from her. She told me I look so much like the man who left us. I had taken his black hair and blue eyes from him.But mom brunette hair and hazel eyes, along with her perfect straight nose are the prettiest I’ve seen. I wish I had taken after her beauty.How awful to have his look , I wish I could tear off this face of mine, so I wouldn’t remind her of Him.Especially when she stares too long at me, it always seem like she wanted to cry. As usual I would always catch up wi
Noah POVI just got out of the bathroom, shoving my tower over my neck when my phone pings on the bed.It pings the second time.Ignoring thinking it’s a random message. I have to be real quick with sliding into a pant and getting dressed for my class. Today, smells like a good one. The guys are having poker game tonight, well I hope it goes well because it’s gonna be damn competitive.And Riva is gonna be present. I might need to summon my wolf tonight, I can’t promise it wouldn’t be bloody and yet…..fun.My phone pings twice.Thrice..Shit who the fuck is that?I slip into my relaxed fit trouser, I grab my phone from the bed.Bella: Hey, back to your senses yet? I know you actually don’t mean the break up.I let out a throaty laugh when I read it. This bitch must be kidding me, she’s the damn reason Scarlet wouldn’t forgive me up till now. Babe, been ignoring me since the last time we spoke.I respect her decision about wanting a distance from me. I sure haven’t had the balls to go
Scarlet POV Aleena dropped me off in school and returned back just like the usual way. Damn it feels kind of strange that I miss this hell of a school just for two days or so. I know. The only thing I missed was going back to the library to find out about another letter from the stranger. It’s weird that I find that rude- asshole fascinating a little bit. Screw me if I deny that the only thing that kept me from going insane back home, was when I thought of his reply throughout the time I pretend to be okay. I reach my hostel, it’s empty. Everyone is back to school. I quickly get into a good outfit and throw my backpack unto my shoulder. The first thing I do when I land in school, was running to the library. The library is empty, it’s unusual that Lucy, the librarian has not resumed yet. Well, I guess that’s a luck on my path because I shouldn’t be in the library at this time. The last time I left another letter, I had purposely kept it in a different place. It’s easier to main
Scarlet POVLucy barged into the library and my breathing ceased. Shit, I whisper as my heart pounds against my chest.She doesn’t seem to noticed me yet. I’m done giving him a perfect reply, between don’t think I wasn’t hard on him because of the tears on my cheek. Rune still deserves an infuriating reply from me, I should act like I’m not touched by his story. But curious at what could be worse than that, my hopes are high, I had to share him one of my problem and I hope it worths him telling me what he withheld from me.I fold the letter back into the book, I put it back on the self where I found it. Lucy still doesn’t noticed me yet, I tiptoe quietly like a criminal to the exit door.Holding my gulp of air to keep the tiniest noise at bay. I successfully come out of the library without being noticed. Thank my fucking star.My phone buzzes with a text from Jane just as I’m about to walk into my class. I have one more class before the end of the day.Jane: We’re hanging out at Noa
Noah POV Damn it! What is wrong with this girl?!Why can’t she see that Bella wants to cause trouble between us? She couldn’t even fucking wait to listen to all I had to say. What is wrong with her? Damn, I’m so fucking mad at the moment. She ran so fast from the villa, they all asked me to stay back and not make things worse. Michael and Jane had to go after her, why I stared fucking worried and pacing about in the room, and as for Bella she felt like a winner of course. God knows how much I hate her already. She couldn’t quit her delivish smirk off her lips, I felt like smashing the life out of her. But no fucking way! She’s damn lucky that she is a girl. Cool guys don’t hurt ladies, and this shit hurts to the core because they get to go scout free after their scandal. I’m already back in my appartment. If I say Jane’s last words before she left the room, didn’t hurt , I’m a fucking asshole that should be sent down to hell. Her words fucking ripped off my heart and my soul. 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
