Alpha Carlos's POV"What do you mean?" I couldn't wait to hear what he had to say, anything to get Scarlett back, I would do without hesitation."I suggest we should secretly go into the evil forest with some of our trusted warriors and search for her."He gazed at him and nodded my head in agreement. I think he has a point, why didn't I think of this all this while?I could have secretly followed her into the evil forest on that day, at least, she shouldn't have gone alone. "I think you are making sense. So, when do you suggest we should go?" "Tonight, we leave tonight but I have to go get some of the warriors that will be going with us." he stood up, bowing his head respectfully to me and exiting the room. I quickly wrapped my work up before leaving the office to go get prepared for the journey. Evening came. I was in my room, fully dressed, pacing forth and back while waiting impatiently for Phillip. I sighed a sigh of relief when I heard a knock on the door and Phillip came.
Felix's POV I have been counting days since Scarlett went into the evil forest to get that damn rare rose. I couldn't think straight, her thoughts were always in my head. I have become prayerful because of her. Every day, I pray to the moon goddess to grant her safety and send her to me. "Don't tell me that you are thinking again," Derrick's voice pulled me out of my thoughts. I sign as I spun around to look at him, "Why won't I think when Scarlett hasn't returned? Today makes it the fifth day and she was supposed to return on the fourth day." I groaned, massaging my temple in frustration. "Calm down, your Highness," "Do you think she's dead?" "How can you even think of that? She's not dead, you are only worried for nothing." "I don't know what to think anymore, I can't connect with her." "That's because she was far away." I stood up from my seat, pacing forth and back in my office as I thought of what to do then, an idea came into my head. "I have an idea," I moved closer
Felix's POV"Father, I Uhm... I wanted to...""Your Highness, he wants to take me out." Elena cut me off when she saw me battling with what to say."Oh, that is very good." Father smiled at her, "You guys should take your time but see me when you get back, Felix." I said with a smile and left."Why did you say that I wanted to take you out?" I questioned Elena as soon as my father left for his study room. "I just saved your ass now and instead of you thanking me, you are asking me questions." "What do you mean by that?" "I knew that you wanted to sneak out with your friends which was the reason why you find it difficult to reply to him." I gazed at her, thinking of how she knew that I was trying to go out with Derrick. "How did you know that I wanted to go out with Derrick?" I question, gazing at her.She shrugged with a smile, "Am still your childhood friend, Felix. I know everything about you." "Now that you know, I am going out with Derrick and I can't take you out." "I know
Scarlett's POV I looked at Fiona, wondering what would be more painful than what he had just told me. "What happens after that?" I asked, looking at her. She sighed, blinking away the tears that were threatening to come out from her eyes. "I don't have any reason to stay there anymore since I was rejected by my mate and I decided to go back to my family only to meet the shock of my life." Tears fell down her cheeks. "What happens? What did you see?" I asked, rubbing her back. "I met all my clan, my families were wiped out..... by.... by my mate." she choked on her words. "How did you know that he was the one that killed them?" "He was there, I met him there and he confessed that the dangerous poison he asked me to prepare for him so he could use it to kill the black witch was the one he used to kill them all." "I felt betrayed and heartbroken, I could never believe that he could do such a thing to me, out of anger, I burnt him and his chosen mate alive and I also killed his w
Scarlett's POV "Don't be confused Scarlett, I believe you must have encountered some evil spirit on your way to this place?" Fiona asked and I nodded. "Those evil spirits need this rare rose flower, they used it to perform different magic and they are going to kill you because your power will not work on them this time around," Fiona explained further. "Alright, I am ready," I said softly. I will be happy if she teleports me close to the pack, I don't want to encounter those horrible creatures and it will also save me the stress of walking for days without food or water. "Are you ready?" The old witch questioned while looking at me. "Yes, I am ready." "Alright, hold my hand," she ordered. I held her hands with one hand and Fiona held my other hand while she held Fiona's hands and we formed a circle. "Now close your eyes," She ordered and I closed my eyes. She began chanting some words and soon I felt a breeze sweep my feet, I felt like I was floating in the air. She continue
Scarlett's POV "Felix? How did he know that I was back?" I muttered to myself when I saw Felix, walking behind Jane. Jane walked in, gazing at me with shock, "You are back? How is this possible?" she questioned, her voice trembling in shock. "Why are you surprised? Did you think that I would die?" I said with a smirk, shaking my head in disappointment. I knew that she hated me but not to the extent of wanting me dead, she thought that I would never come back alive just like every other person. "Scarlett? Oh, thank God you are alive!" Felix pushed Jane away and opened his arms for me for a hug. I stood up and hugged him, "I thought you were dead, I came searching for you. Thank God you are alive, I don't know what I would have done without you." He whispered into my ears, inhaling my scent. I could feel Alpha Carlos's cold face on Felix, his eyes were burning with rage, he would have skinned him alive with his gaze if he could. I pulled back from his embrace and he sat down bes
Chapter 98Scarlett's POV She blushed, avoiding my gaze, "There is nothing between us, We are just friends." she said with a smile. "Are you sure?" I levitated my left brown at her. "I'm serious, Scarlett.""I will go get you something to eat." She said and quickly exited the room before I could respond. I sighed, shaking my head with a smile before going into the bathroom to take my bath. After bathing and changing into new clothes, I opened my bag and searched for my phone. I was glad my phone was still there, I removed the battery and kept it inside its case. I insert the battery and switch it on.I dialed my father's number, I knew he would be worried about me by now. He picked up the call on the third ring. "Scarlett!!" he exclaimed, he knew I was the one calling because I had used the line to call him before. "Yes, father. How have you been?" "Oh, my daughter, I have missed you, I am so happy to hear your voice." his voice cracks, "I learned you went into that dangerou
Jane's POVI shivered in fear when I saw the vampire's eyes turn red, about to attack me. "Stop Jack!!" Mother screamed as she saw that he was about to attack me. He clenched his fist and gritted his teeth to calm himself down. "Did you know what you guys have done? and you have the guts to think that I am lying?" He thundered with rage. "We never say that you are lying. What we are saying is that the person you are claiming to have killed your boss doesn't even have a wolf. How would she be able to do that? or was she possessed by evil spirits?" Mother asked with her voice slightly trembling. "What? Did you both plan this so you could kill my boss?" "No, no, no, we didn't say that." Mother was quick to say before he lost his temper. He held his hand and winced in pain. I think he was in serious pain because I saw some blood dripping out of his wound. "Ahhh! This is not over yet. I will come back for both of you," he said through pain and left. My heart began pounding in my c
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
