Scarlett's POV" My phone! Hope they didn't carry the new phone that beta Phillips bought for me?" I quickly checked my bag where I had hidden it and I was glad when I saw it. I thanked the goddess for not allowing them to see where I kept the phone but I was still angry at the person that took the snacks because I didn't have anything to eat. " Jane, I know you are behind this," I mumbled under my breath as I was researching the place for it but the knock on the door brought me out of my thoughts. " I just hope it's not one of those useless maids that took the snacks I hide under my bed because I don't know if I would be able to control my anger and not smash their heads today," I thought in my head as I asked the person to come in through gritted teeth as I tried so hard to ignore the pangs of hunger as it came in full force. " I was about to leave, hoping you weren't around," Phillips said as he stepped in with a smile, holding a bag in his hand. I felt butterflies, dancing wi
Jane's POV. I was frustrated and restless, knowing fully well that no matter how I punished Scarlett, she would never leave the palace and Alpha Carlos could only make me his Luna when he knew that Scarlett was no longer in the palace. Mother would go back and we haven't achieved anything. All our plans to send her away prove abortive. I was pacing forth and back in my room when I heard a knock on the door. I angrily asked the person to come in as I paced to my bed and sat down. The door was pushed open and Leah the head maid stepped in. " Good day, your Highness." she greeted me with a smile. " What is it?" I asked irritably as I didn't have time to chit-chat with her. " I noticed something about Scarlett and I decided to inform you about it." hearing her mention Scarlett made me turn my gaze at her as I became interested at once. " What about her? Go on, am all ears." I stood up and stepped closer to her. " I noticed for the past few days now that Scarlett had been going wi
Jane's POV I moved closer to Mother and she whispered into my ears, the thing that I would do to make Alpha Carlos hate Scarlett and send her away. " Thank you, Mother." She hugged me and patted my back. I felt a bit relaxed after hearing what she said. " I will be leaving first thing tomorrow morning before your father starts complaining." she said, standing up to her feet, "I want to go shopping, do you want to come along?" "No, mother. I don't feel like going out."" Alright, my princess. I will see you when I get back." she pecked my cheeks and left. I mind-linked one of the omega's to bring popcorn for me before I went to sit on the sofa and change to my favorite Korean series. I was watching my movie with popcorn in my hands when I heard a knock on the door. I asked the person to come in, hoping it was Alpha Carlos as I hadn't seen him for the past two days. He has been giving me excuses, telling me that he was busy with office work. I had to force myself to accept whate
Felix's POVOut of curiosity, I moved in their direction to hear what she was saying."Yes, I'm going back tomorrow morning before my husband starts suspecting that I didn't come to your place," she said to the person at the other end of the phone, glancing around and quickly hiding beside a pillar." No, she didn't. I told you that she's a witch but I will show her that I am stronger than her. She must leave this place for Jane so that the Alpha can have her time."I can guess that the person she was speaking with on the phone was her friend."Why are some people so wicked? Well, I have to look for Scarlett and inform her so that she can be more careful with them." I left the place before she saw me. I went to Jane's room and I saw her sitting. I gazed at her coldly as her sight disgusted me. I looked at Scarlett and I could see pain in her, the way she was nervously avoiding my gaze showed that Jane must have done something to her. I helped her pack the clothes and pulled her outs
Scarlett's POVEveryone turned their gaze on me in horror and my heart jumped out of my mouth at the maid's brute words, trying hard to process what she just said."What nonsense are you saying?" I asked angrily as I didn't understand what he was saying because I prepared the food myself and I even tasted it before bringing it here so, what is she saying? "I saw how you dished out Princess Jane's food and added a substance to it." "What? How is that possible, I wasn't even alone in the kitchen. There are other maids with me. How would you even think that I can do such a thing?" I yelled, my frustration boiling over. " How dare you try to cover up your evil act?" she yelled out, her voice got the attention of the servants and they started gathering around us. "This is a frame up and you knew it!!" I retorted with anger and Jane landed a slap on my face.I knew this was Jane's doing, she was trying to frame me for something I knew nothing about." Did you just slap me?" I question,
Phillip's POVI was shocked when Alpha Carlos ordered the guards to take Scarlett to the dungeon without investigating the matter.It was so obvious that this was just a frame-up to punish her and I knew that Jane was behind it. I never liked her right from the day she came into this palace.Anyone who has the mind to desire her sister's mate can do anything. Jane was a desperate woman and she could go at any length just to achieve her aim.My heart ached in pain when I saw Scarlett, weeping helplessly. My wolf howled with anger and frustration, threatening to come out and protect his mate but I tried to calm him down, letting him know that it was a risk because it's our words against theirs and we are going to lose before we even begin. It hurt, it hurt when I saw the guards taking Scarlett away roughly without minding her condition and I yelled at them to handle her with care. I ran after Alpha Carlos as I needed to talk some senses into his head and before I could get to the whol
Scarlett's POVI wailed in pain and agony as they were taken to the dungeon. I was so scared, I had never been to the dungeon before but I heard it was a very scary place, and knowing that I would be staying there for five days as the Alpha's orders sent a cold shiver down my spine. What have I done to Jane? Why is she doing this to me?My heart clenched in pain as tears blurred my vision.The fact that Alpha Carlos believes every word that comes out of her mouth shattered my heart into a thousand pieces.He was my mate and supposed to stand by me no matter what, right? So, why is he doing this to me? Didn't I deserve to be happy?We stepped into the dungeon and I shivered as the air around the dungeon changed, the sound of people wailing in pain and agony from torture made me panic with my heart pounding in my chest. " Are they going to torture me like this people? Will I also go through the same pain?" I asked myself with fear and panic. We passed through many iron and scary door
Alpha Carlos's POV I was shocked when the guards told me that the food had been taken away and no one seemed to know who carried the food. I was so angry because I wanted the doctor to take the food to the lab and run a test on it to see if it was truly poisoned. "I will get to the root of this." I groaned and brought out my phone to call the doctor. I don't want him to waste his time to come again since the food has already been taken away. I was on the call with the doctor when my door was suddenly pushed open and Phillips barged in furious without knocking. I was angry, my face scowled with rage, I never knew Phillip to be a disrespectful and ill-mannered person. He was my childhood friend and he was one that always considered every little thing before doing anything. What changed? Why is he acting like this all of a sudden? His hurtful words got through me and I slapped him viciously across his face. I felt disrespected by him but I was stunned when he punched me. Like, h
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
