Scarlet POVI was thrown into the cell immediately and the gate was shut closed in my face. “ Let me out of this fucking place!” I hit my hand on the gate as my eyes swirl around the premises of the cell. It’s too dark for me to properly see and quite cold.“ Alpha Dave I’m going to kill you!” I shout on top of my voice. Now I can see the reason why Noah is so determined to fight this war.None of the guard is around anymore, I’ve been prisoned and abandoned like a slave. I begin to cry, feeling helpless. I wouldn’t have ended up being in a place like this if I had listened to Jane.Whimpering slowly, when I hear Noah’s voice through mind-link. “ Scarlet are you okay?” he asks, and I can perceive that he is a little skeptical about his question.“ Yeah, I’m okay.” I tell him a big fucking lie. He must have felt it in the mate bond but I cannot tell him what is happening. What if it all goes wrong?“ I’m sorry, I let you go. I promise I will come back for you baby.” He says calmly, and
Scarlet POVThe soldiers throws us into the truck and tie us up like some slaves.“ Jeez, what are you doing? I’m your Luna!” She fights with them as they lace the rope around her wrists and legs. I don’t bother fighting with them no more, because I’m frozen and I could feel Iris in pain too. Did we really lose Noah?No!I don’t believe it and I will never!Once they are done tying us up, they shuts the door close and then we hear the engine of the car getting started.“ Scarlet?” I hear Janey’s voice as the car drive off the battlefield.I hear her clearly but I couldn’t respond, I don’t want this monster capturing her too. So she better go away, a very far place because Alpha Dave is coming for them.He drives the car so fast, causing our heads to bump on the wall of the car, it’s frustrating that Supreme begin to scream.My head bump harder but there’s nothing that can be painful to the one I’m feeling right now. I can’t take the scene of Noah dying, out of my head. I wanted to dra
Scarlet POVI managed to close my eyes throughout the night but while I slept I could feel tears streaming down my eyes as if I was in a trance.My eyes were unstable while they were still close, I couldn’t stay a second without thinking of Noah and playing the scene at the battlefield a million times in my head.I fold up at the right end of the rickety bed and Supreme faces the left side of the bed, struggling to hold back the tears. She has finally realized how foolish she has been, and that could only explain why she is apparently in great shock.As the morning brightens a bit, there is a sudden loud knock on the door that seems to startle the two of us because we abruptly rise from the bed at the same time.After the loud knock on the door, there is an earsplitting voice that came afterwards and it sounds so much like the girl we saw yesterday at the kitchen.“ That’s Jessica.” Supreme confirms with her hoarse voice that is obviously cracked.“ What? It’s just 5a.m for fuck sake!
Scarlet POV Clutching my hands around my chest as my knees melts to the floor. My head lowers as the tears drop freely to the ground. “ You can cry all you want but delete the idea of your mate coming back to attack me because he is already dead.” He says but I couldn’t lift my head to stare at him because I’m feeling an intense pain in my heart. I hear the members mourning him too. Fuck, what do I do to protect them now from this Monster? He is about to turn us all into slaves. When I finally manage to lift my gazes, he still stare at me with pity. Then he throws the piece of clothe to me, “ I should allow you to keep the last piece of him.” He smiles as though doing me a good favor. I don’t mind the mockery in his eyes, I quickly crawl on the floor to grab it and hugs it around my chest. I begin to touch the stain of the blood with my hands. It’s really his blood and I can smell his scent from it. I weep slowly as I rub my fingers on it. I wipe my tears and get up from the flo
Scarlet POV I stay outside the cell getting freeze by the cold, but that doesn’t matter. What matters is staying outside with them, they are all frighten and the least I could do for them, is to make them calm. They are not alone. I’m not leaving them despite the screams at me to get out of the cold. I lay against the prison gate, shivering till the day breaks out. As the day brightens, I hear the sounds of footsteps approaching the cell causing me to abruptly stand on my feet as the surge of protectiveness becomes stronger around my chest. When I heard the foot steps, I knew the guards were coming for them again because I know Dave can go to any extent to make their lives miserable. They walk closer and I see those whips in their hands again, this time, they are looking scarier. “ Wow, so you slept outside in the cold just to protect them?” Dave falls out from their back and begin to approach me with those ugly smirks on his lips. “ I told you, I will do anything for their sak
Scarlet POVI finally calm myself down while I focus on all the work Jessica has given me. I almost ruined Supreme's face with my anger, and now I’m kind of feeling bad for her.I know she is the cause of all these, but I think she has already learned her lesson and seems to be sorry for all she has done.After washing the last dish, Jessica throws the door of the kitchen open. She walks in with her silver heels and green short gown.She seems to be looking prettier lately with her outfits, but now she looks drop-dead gorgeous, as if there’s going to be an occasion today."You should hasten up and go to the hall! Something great is happening today!” The sound of her voice can tell how excited she is about this ‘great thing happening today'“ Okay.” Supreme is the one who answers with her brow climbing up her face.I guess she is curious about what is going to happen, just like me. I rush to finish up, and she does the same.Then we begin to head back to our room to freshen up. While w
Noah POVA painful groan escapes my lips as my eyes snap open. Darkness surrounds me as I try to sit up.My whole body aches like hell, especially my stomach, as though I have a deep cut at the spot.Where am I? And why do I feel so much pain in my stomach?"Anyone there?” I manage to force out the words from my mouth because, as I speak, there is a strong pain that seems to drag my intestines. My stomach squeezes in pain.“ Hey! Are you finally awake?" I hear a middle-aged man shouting, and when I trace the voice, it seems to be coming from a very distant place.Wait..I look around to know where I am, but there is only darkness and nothing more. What happened to me? Why am I here?The questions swirl in my head, but the more I think about them, the more my head feels as though it’s about to fall out.I trail my hands around to touch anything so I can identify where I’m at. I feel something like a wall, but when I stretch my hand up, it doesn’t end.Then I hear the man’s voice again,
Noah POVI finish the tea and drop the mug on the stool beside the bed. I watch him come out of the small room with a tray of food in his hand. I wonder who he is and why he is taking care of me.Why do I feel I have not seen him before, yet he acts this nice towards me?He stops in front of me, drops the tray on the stool, and takes the white mug away."I made you porridge. You should eat it while it is still hot.” He says this and settles down on the bed beside my legs. What keeps me relaxed is the friendly smile on his face, despite the fact that he seems to be lonely because I can’t find anyone around apart from him.And this hut seems to be the only house in the surrounding area, and I can’t imagine how lonely he would be. Why has he decided to stay here out of all places, though?Damn, I just hate to be so quiet because I get to think a lot, and it doesn’t seem to help. I have so many questions swirling in my head, and I have no single answer to any of them."I can see so many q
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
