Aleena POVI can’t sit here and do nothing about my Scarlet. I don’t deserve to be a mom if I can’t do anything for my baby.Jeez I’m so ashamed of myself. It was all my fault and I don’t know why he would take Scarlet instead of me. I was the one who wronged him, I was the one who foolishly hurt him and made him a rogue.What does my baby has to do with that? I’ve been shattered on the floor in the sitting room since the day Scarlet disappeared.I have been useless, doing nothing but drinking my life to a mess. I remember when he left without thinking about her, it wasn’t good for Scarlet. Now, Kidnapping her won’t make her worse?I’m frustrated to the core. How is Scarlet doing? Is she scared ? Has she been crying? Damnit, those are crazy questions to ask.I struggle to get my flimsy self off the floor, eyes dizzy because I drank too much. I want to puke because I’m irritated by myself right now.I drag my ass upstairs to take a warm bath before my eyes finally become normal. I star
Aleena POV“ Useless?” My lips go dry as I’m thrown off guard.“ Yeah right, useless,” He nods, smiling awkwardly as he steps closer. “ Because you can’t do anything to save Scarlet.” He grins.“ What do you have up your sleeves?” I swish my lips, trying to stand firm.“ What do you think?” He scoffs.I don’t know what to think, if I’m useless to him right now, then he must have kidnapped Scarlet for a different reason.“ Why is her fucking mate not coming yet? Doesn’t he loves her?” He grumble as though this whole trap of kidnapping Scarlet is for Noah.“ What do you have on him? The poor boy just lost his dad!” I shout out to his face. His dirty scheme gives me the sick feeling.“ Great, everything going as planned.” He laughs as though he is having fun.“ What do you mean going as planned? Did..you attack the Alpha too?” my lips shake as I can’t imagine it. No, I can’t .“ Shut your fucking mouth! Do you still support the man you cheated on me with?!” he furiously grab my arms and
Noah’s POVI engulf Pearl into my arms tightly and she didn’t seem to let go, letting out all her tears on my shoulder.I haven’t cried again since I left dad’s room, where his body was lifeless. I have been soaking up the tears and trying to man up in front of my siblings.I hear a knock on the door and Pearl pulls out from the hug. “ Come in.” I order whoever was at the door.“ Can I address you as the Alpha King now? Because I can’t call you by your name.” Mark bows his head slightly and ask.“ You can call me by my name,” I tell him, as he stares at Pearl whose eyes are all swollen. The ceremony has not been done.“ Why are you here?” I ask him.“ I came to inform you that the body has been taken away as you said.” He explains, and I nod at him. I didn’t want to ask him the next question because of Pearl. I wanted to ask if he had decapitated his body, but it won’t be easy for Pearl if she hears that.It's heartbreaking, and that’s our traditional way of burying a werewolf, if we
Noah POVI inform Mark to announce the ceremony, today I’m going to accept the throne as the Alpha King.I select an outfit to wear, a black tuxedo suit and a black sparkling shoe. I’m about to wear my cologne when my phone begin to ring.I quickly walk towards the bed and pick up the call. It’s Jane, it’s been three days since Scarlet got missing and she is calling now?“ Hi, Noah. Have you heard from Scarlet? I haven’t seen her for the past three days. I haven’t seen you either, are you both okay?” her tone is calm as though she wasn’t worried or something.“ You are Scarlet’s best friend right? You haven’t seen her for quite a while and you are calling this late?” I lash out at her, as the day goes by, the angrier I get as Scarlet has not been found.“ I’m sorry, I’ve just been fighting a lot on my own. I know lately I’ve been a bad friend to her. Please forgive me.” Her voice is remorseful, and I relax my clenched fist.“ Scarlet was kidnapped and my father passed away, simply tha
Noah POVI finally escape from Michelle as I walk out of the sitting room. I glance towards the parking space and I see more than three cars.“ Our guests are around now, including the members of the pack.” Mark whispers to me, and I nod as I watch them walking towards the large room beside the pool by the left.I walk out of the porch sauntering around the trimmed flowers as the sunlight reflects on my face.The next person I set my eyes on is Alpha Dave. He is coming out from his black Bentley flying spurs and dressed in a black suit as me and a dark shade above the bridge of his nose. He seem quite rich and it’s obvious.I halt my step when I noticed that he has seen me. I let out a slight scoff at his bold steps, I had personally invited him to the ceremony, since he was a relative.. Supreme’s mate.“ You look way responsible now from the first time I saw you. Why? Is it your father’s death?” he ask as he stops in front of me, putting his hands into his pocket.“ I’m glad you noti
Noah POVMark went ahead to prepare the car and then I hear some voices coming from the house.I wanted to run in to check but there is no time now. I need to find my Scarlet as soon as possible. Now is the time.I hear the sound of the car engine, Mark is already at the driver seat and begin to warm up the car.Michael didn’t go back to bring his car from Aleena’s place so he would be joining us.I get into the back seat and Michael quickly hop into the passenger seat.“ LET’S GO.” I order as soon as we settle in the car.Mark hits the road immediately as he speeds up the car. For the first time since my dad passed away, my mind is peaceful and calm, I could hear Scarlet’s thoughts clearly.And as Mark continue to drive, I listen to Scarlet’s thoughts. Listening to what her mind says prompt my heartbeat. Gosh I miss her like hell.I miss her like I miss breathing.“ Aleena cheated with Noah’s dad? God, what will happen if he finds out?” I hear her thought loud and clear, my heart pau
Noah POVThere is something else he is obviously not telling me and he is trying to cover it up by using the fact that my dad cheated with his damn mate!I glance at my best friend and Mark, and noticed that the rogues are increasing and they are suddenly fighting to death.None of them have been able to find Scarlet, and it all seem like this one in front of me is trying to waste my time, boasting in front of me.“ How dare you underrate me?” I laugh again, and when I told him I’m about to beat him to hell to spill out the truth to me, he thought I was fucking pulling a prank. And he is about to watch me fulfill my words.“ Well my bad, but you are just a kid who suddenly got the position as an Alpha King.” He mocks, and he fearlessly come closer to me.His words suddenly echoes in my head. How did he know I became an Alpha King because of my father? He sounded like he knows so much that he is yet to say.“ I see.. what else do you know and who fucking sent you?!” I grunt at him, and
Noah POVShe continues to panic as her eyes widen and trying to see if I was injured anywhere.I immediately kiss her lips to keep her quiet when she wouldn’t stop panicking.“ Relax Scarlet, we will go back home now.” I get on my feet and slip her into my arms, putting her arms across my neck.She stares at me in shock as unspoken question swirl in her eyes. “ What happened?” She ask, finally coming back to her senses.“ What happened to my dad?” She asks again.“ Are you worried about him?” I raise my brow, as I stare at her pale face.“ Yeah..” she sighs upon seeing the reaction on my face.“ Forget about him, I’m worried about you.” I tell her as I walk out of the building, Scarlet in my arms. Holding and protecting her like an egg.We see Mark tossing her dad into the boot of the car, he shuts it close and begin to wipe off his blood from his hands.“ You didn’t kill him did you?” she gasps when she saw Mark rolling him into the boot and his legs and hands are tied up just as I i
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
