Scarlett's POVI ran to my room in the servant quarters and threw myself on the wooden bed.Why me?! Why can't I be happy for once?" Arh," I squeezed my chest and groaned in pain, pleading with the goddess to ease the pain in my heart as it became so unbearable and suffocating.The sound of the wooden door that was pushed open snapped me out of my thoughts. My heart leaped in my chest as I navigated my eyes at the door to see who it was. The head maid, Leah stepped in with two other maids, holding a bucket and a mop, glaring at me with disgust. " Why are you still here?" Leah asked angrily. I was confused by what she was saying, " How do you mean?" I asked, wiping the tears off my face with the back of my palm. "Aren't you supposed to be outside working like other maids? " she asked, levitating her left brown. " Maybe she thought that she's still the spoiled princess in her father's pack." one of the maids added and they all laughed. "Oh, how can you speak to our dear Luna lik
Scarlett's POV" Where is the food that I have to choose from?" I asked as she stepped into the kitchen and dropped the dishes on the sink." What are you holding?" she gazed at me with disgust."Leftover, I guess." What I was holding can not be called food. It was cold and looked irritating. She turned her gaze at me, cleaning her hands with a towel. " Well, what you referred to as leftovers is your meal and you will choose one between the rice balls and the loaf of bread." " What! Do you realize that I haven't eaten anything since morning?" I asked as I felt my knees weaken and my stomach grumbling out of hunger. " Oh, I didn't know my princess. What would you like to have?" Her expression shows how serious she was and I felt grateful to her because I was famished. " Uhm, I would like to have pasta with scrambled eggs and fruit juice." I was salivating already. This was my favorite food and I can't wait to have it She cupped her mouth and guffawed loudly, looking at me mockin
Scarlett's POV" I... I wasn't sleeping, I was just taking a rest." I stuttered, " You are just what? Taking a rest? Why are you such a lazy ass? I asked you to wash clothes and you are telling me that you are taking a rest?"" Jane, watch what you say to me! I'm your elder sister and I deserve some respect from you!" I yelled, my frustration boiling over." You dare talk back while I am talking? have you forgotten your place?" she asked with terror, her eyes boiling with anger. " Why are you doing this to me? What wrong have I done to you?" I choked on my words as my heart clenched with pain, making breathing difficult for me. "You don't know what you've done?" she asked, squeezing her face with anger. " You took everything from me!! You took father's love from me! I was made a laughing stock when a wolfles wolf like you was mated with an Alpha while I have a guard as my mate." " How was that any of my fault? Father loves you and you know it!" " No, he only loves you. I'm going
Scarlett's POV " Where are you, Scarlett ?" I heard Felix's voice in my head. A feeling of relief washed over me when I heard his voice. " I'm in the kitchen. I was asked to prepare a meal for Alpha Carlos but I didn't have any idea on how to go about it. Can you be of help?""Sure, I will be there in a jiffy." I was glad at least, there was someone who was going to help me but at the same time, I was nervous. I don't know if Leah was going to allow him into the kitchen. I was pacing forth and back nervously in the kitchen when Felix arrived. " Thank goddess that you are here. How did they allow you inside the kitchen?" I asked because I've never seen a guard entering the kitchen before except it's on the Alpha's order. " Don't worry, I have my way," he replied with a grin. " So, where do we start from?" He asked, lifting the sleeves and rubbing his palms together. I looked at him sadly, " I don't know. I have never cooked in my life before." " Don't worry, we could make som
Scarlett's POV" Scarlett, come here." I heard Alpha Carlos's voice, making my heart leap in my chest."Is there something wrong with the food? Did I do something wrong?" Different thoughts crept into my head.I spun around and paced towards him with my heart beating rapidly in my chest that I thought it would soon bust." Who prepared this meal?" Alpha Carlos asked as he keenly looked at me as if he could see through me." Did he know that it was Felix who helped me out? But, there was nobody in the kitchen aside from Felix and I. How did he know?" I shook my head to clear all the thoughts that were crawling in my head as I thought of whether to tell him the truth or not." Are you deaf? Can't you speak or have the dogs cut your tongue?" His words jerked me out of my thoughts and I jumped in fear." Uhm... I prepared the meal myself." I responded, keeping my voice steady." Oh, I see," he said lazily as he returned his gaze to his food.I heaved a heavy sigh as I saw him eat the fo
Alpha Carlos POV I was shocked by their revelation. I could still remember how I was pacing forth and back in my room with fear while I was waiting for the pack doctor. I heard a knock on the door and I already knew that it was the doctor. I asked him to come without hesitation. " Good day, your Highness. You sounded urgent." The doctor greeted me with a bow as he stepped in with someone. " Yeah, it's very urgent. I don't know what happened to her. We were just talking when she suddenly felt nausea and she ran into the bathroom to vomit. As if that wasn't enough, she slumps." I explained in panic as I didn't want anything to happen to her, especially now that I was ready to mend things with her. I stood impatiently with my heart thumping in my chest as I watched the doctor move to her side on the bed and began to run some tests on her. He also checked her blood pressure and her heartbeat before whispering some words to his friend and he jotted it down on his Notepad. " How is sh
Alpha Carlos POV Who could have thought that she was a hook-up girl? She even has the temerity to get pregnant in the process and she thought all she could do was to pin the pregnancy on me? She doesn't know what she has brought upon herself. I'm going to make her life miserable for her. I know it's going to take me some time before I get over her but I won't allow myself to be deceived by her pitiful face again. "Good day, your Highness." Philip's voice jolted me out of my thoughts. I nodded in response as I turned around and my gaze fell on him as he walked in with a serious face. " The rogue at the dungeon has refused to confess about who sent him even after the torture we gave him," he informed, gazing down at his leg. My eyes darkened as soon as I heard him and the memory of how I was attacked by them kept flowing on my head. " He has refused to speak?" I asked, my anger boiling over. " Yes, Your Highness," he answered with a frowning face." Take me there," I ordered. "I
Scarlett's POV" You are asked to do something and you are here gossiping? Is that what you are asked to do?" Leah asked as she strolled into the kitchen with a frown, holding a tray in her hand." We weren't gossiping," Ella retorted with anger in her tone." You weren't gossiping with this thing? " she asked, looking at me from head to my toes. I felt a pang in my chest as I became breathless with anger. " Don't refer to me as 'this thing' again," I warned through gritted teeth. She looked at me with disgust before stepping closer to me with a frown on her face." What would you do if I did? Have you forgotten that I'm the head maid here? As long as you are here, I will talk to you anyhow because you are under me." she, rolling her eyes." You should....." I was cut off by Leah who poked me with her shoulder and shook her head at me, indicating that I shouldn't say anything.I clenched my hands and gritted my teeth to calm myself as I forced myself to keep quiet.She moved to the
Scarlett's POV My heart froze when I saw the house. It was vandalized, everything scattered and broken. My legs felt weak, but I pushed myself forward with my heart pounding in my chest.I stepped into the living room and met it in chaos, and my grandma was lying in a pool of her blood, making my heart skip a beat. “No... Grandma!” I gasped, rushing to her side as tears blurred my vision. “What happened? Who did this to you?” I cried, my hands trembling as I shook her gently. “Please wake up! Please!”Carlos ran to me, checking her pulse. “She’s still breathing,” he said, his voice steady despite the chaos. He called out to Phillip, ordering him to call an ambulance.I let out a shaky breath, but then a new fear gripped me. “My child! Where’s Elliot?” I stood up, my heart racing with dread.“Where is he?” Carlos asked, his voice trembled as he scanned the room.I rushed to my bedroom, frantically searching, but he wasn’t there. We searched through the entire house, calling his name
Alpha Carlos's POV.I was stunned when Phillip told me he knew where Scarlett was. Rage filled me. He knew all this time, and yet he watched me search everywhere for her without saying a word?“How long have you known?” I asked, my voice trembling with anger.“I’m sorry, Alpha. She made me promise not to tell anyone,” Phillip said, his voice sincere, but it did nothing to calm me.“Where is she?” I demanded, my patience gone.“She’s at her grandmother’s house,” he confessed, avoiding my eyes.“Do you know the way?”“Yes, I walked close to the village before I turned back.”I stared at him, shocked. He knew all along. My fists clenched as I struggled to hold back the rage threatening to explode.Without another word, I ordered him to gather the guards. I needed to see her. Now.I headed inside to freshen up. I hadn’t taken a proper shower ever since Scarlett left. When I came back out, the guards were already assembled, waiting for me.Phillip led us through a hidden tunnel, each step
Scarlett's POVI was stunned when I received Alpha Carlos’s message. He confessed that he was the one responsible for my pregnancy. My heart twisted with pain, and tears streamed down my cheeks as I read his words. How could he have known all this time and still humiliate and treat me like garbage? How cruel could he be?I ignored his calls and messages, my hatred for him growing with each passing second. I don’t think I can ever forgive him for what he did to me. Felix also called, but as soon as he mentioned Alpha Carlos, I ended the call. I don’t want anything to do with Alpha Carlos ever again. The pain he caused me is unbearable. I threw my phone onto the bed, changed my clothes, and lay down, hoping sleep would come.Later that evening, I was sitting in the living room, talking with my grandma when I suddenly caught my father's scent."I think my father is here," I whispered, my heart pounding.Grandma looked at me in surprise. "How do you know, You don't have a wolf?""I can sm
Alpha Carlos's POV"I said, where is my daughter!!" Alpha Austin, Scarlett's father roared, his face contorted with anger."Uhm, welcome Alpha Austin." I said, trying to compose myself as I pinched the bridge of my nose in frustration.Ever since I married Scarlett and Alpha Austin called to apologize to me and I refused. I hadn't spoken to him ever since then out of anger. I was angry because he was aware that Scarlett was pregnant and he didn't let me know about it before the wedding day.Seeing him now made me feel guilty, knowing fully well that I was the one responsible for that pregnancy. I don't know what to say, I regretted my actions. I should have listened to his plea and treated Scarlett better."Uhm, Scarlett is missing." I blurted out and he gasped in shock."What did you just say? What happened to my daughter? What have you done to her?" He shouted, his eyes burning like fire. To say that he was angry would be an understatement, he was furious."She slept in her room las
Alpha Carlos's POV I was told by one of my guards that Felix was here to see Scarlett. I saw it as an opportunity for me to appreciate him for everything he did for Scarlett. Felix and Phillip were the one that stood by her when everyone, including me abandoned her. They claimed to be responsible for her Pregnancy even when they knew the consequences involved in it. They did that just to protect her from shame. Something I was supposed to do for her as her mate. These two deserve my appreciation. I will forever be very grateful to her. I stepped into Scarlett's room and met them, chatting and laughing. The happiness in a Scarlett voice was something I have never seen in her before. She was genuinely happy and excitement. That moment, I made a vow to love, protect and always make her happy. They were surprised when when I surprised when I show my gratitude to Felix. Yeah, it was something I had never done in my life before. After Felix has left to her pack, I decided to confessed
Scarlett's POV"Oh, Felix. You are here?" Alpha Carlos exclaimed as he stepped in and we all glanced at each other in disbelief . I thought he would be angry and probably send him out.Felix and Elena stood up and greeted him with respect and Alpha Carlos sat beside me on the bed."So, when did you get here?" He asked with a smile, taking Elliot from Elena."We arrived not too long ago ." Felix said, looking at his strange attitude.Elliot squeezed his eyes open and smiled at Alpha Carlos, revealing his two little dimples."Aww! So cute!" Alpha Carlos murmured, kissing Elliott on his forehead.I looked at him with confusion, wondering if he was aware that he is his father and still pretending.He looked at Elena with a smile, "This is Elena right?" Elena nodded her head in response, "How are you feeling now?""I feel better now, your Highness." Elena responded.We looked at Felix, his eyes filled with emotions, "Thank you, Felix for taking care of Scarlett. I'm very grateful." he said
Scarlett's POVIt was a beautiful sports car. The type I've always wanted. Well, now that I have money, I am going to buy it for myself.I smiled as I stepped into the living room with the thought of that car in my head. I was so engrossed in my thoughts that I don't know when I bump into someone."Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to....." My words were cut off in my throat when I raised my gaze to see who it was and my gaze fell on Alpha Carlos who was gazing at me with a smile, holding something in his hand."I'm sorry for startling you." his voice came in a whisper, running his hand through his hair nervously like a high school prince who was meeting his crush for the first time. "It's okay. If you don't have anything to say, I will like you to excuse me." I said irritably, trying to leave but he blocked my way."Uhm, I got in the car. The sports car you've always wanted. Now that you have a new baby, I thought it would be better if you had a car, it would be easier for you to go whe
Scarlett's POVI left the midwife house after having a heated conversation with Jane. She was yelling at me, telling me to go back to Felix because there is no more place for me in Alpha Carlos' heart."leave this palace with your bastard. I knew you planned with that old useless midwife, claiming that the child belongs to Alpha Carlos but you have failed. I will prove to Alpha Carlos that he wasn't the one responsible for your pregnancy." she shouted, pointing her index fingers on me. I looked at her with fury, "You are just a bad dog who just escaped from the cage and it's running around with nowhere in particular. You are only deceiving yourself if you think that Alpha Carlos would ever love you." I glared at her with disgust. She doesn't know that I have got over Alpha Carlos and I only agreed to come back here with him because I just feel like not because of something else. "How dare you call me a mad dog?" she yelled out angrily, raising her hand to slap me but I got it halfw
Felix's POVFather's face was full of worries as he held his phone to his ear with his hand trembling."Which hospital? " He asked in panic, "we will be there in a jiffy.""Who was that?" I asked, stepping closer to him with my heart pounding in my chest."It's Elena.""What about her?" I asked with my heart thumping in my chest, praying that it's shouldn't be that she has commit suicide as she has threatened."She jumped into the river because she wanted to commit suicide."My heart leaped to my throat when I heard what my father had just said. "I will kill myself if you leave me." Her words echoed in my head. I never knew that she meant it. I just hope that she's alright because I don't think I will be able to forgive myself should anything happen to her."Is she alright? Where is she now." I inquired impatiently."She was rescued by a Fisherman and she has been rushed to the city hospital." He said with a painful heart.I rushed upstairs and quickly changed into new clothes befor
