[SCARLET]

"Call him home, we can negotiate. tell him to be here for lunch," Mary said to her daughter who was looking at her like she had gone bonkers.

It was already bad enough that Alfred was stalking their home, and now her mother wanted her to invite him in? wasn't that too much of a courtesy for someone who was blackmailing her daughter?

"But mother—"

"Do you have any other options? Call him and invite him for lunch. and one more thing, you're moving back here with us. I don't care if you loved your freedom out there. You got us into this mess in the first place," Mary said, getting up.

She was so done with her daughter and her theatrics that kept landing them in tricky situations. It was almost like Scarlet was a magnet for trouble.

They couldn't do shit to her, since they loved her at all, but still Mary wondered why her daughter wouldn't be less troublesome like the girl they had adopted and bargained off on the alpha.

"Okay mother," Scarlet said as she watched her mother w

    [SANDRA]The weekend had flown by so fast, and not once did Sandra even see her husband. Sure, she wasn't expecting him to cuddle and fall in love with her, but he could have communicated to her that he wasn't going to be available. He could have at least let her know that he was doing okay. After the weekend with the kids, she had felt a little sick, probably because of her hangover. Sandra had spent the whole of the weekend in bed, writhing in pain, not even making a move from her room. She felt trapped in that house, and as much as she liked it without Aztec, she couldn't help but worry about him. Her thoughts always drifted to the growl he had let out at the pack.It wasn't the usual growls, not that Sandra would know, but she could tell by the reactions of Tara and the kids that the alpha never growled just because he loved showing that he was the one with the power. The conflict was so raw and Sandra was desperate to know more."Good morning Luna," Broderick greeted Sandra whe

    [SANDRA] "Luna Franzel!" the voice said and that was all it took for Sandra to slump back in her seat. she was already fissuring and as if that wasn't enough, the universe just had to drag that bitch Beatrice through her doors. How fantastic. Sandra retended like she wasn't even in the office, so she plugged in her earphones, this time increasing the volume to mute out Beatrice's theatrics Bias fate would have it, the woman managed to find her way through. "So this is where you came to hide, huh?" Beatrice asked angrily. She looked like she was having the roast of her days. Then again, she had just been dumped by Aztec because of Sandra, so she had every right to be angry. But what's she directing her anger towards the wrong person here? "This is an office you start. have some respect. and why the hell are you shouting?" Sandra said, and unknown to her, there was so much authority in her voice that the wolves in the office quieted down instantly. Hell, even Beatrice was shock

    [SANDRA]"He marked you,” Beatrice breathed out in shock, the realization hitting her so hard and the betrayal becoming even more evident. However, was it a betrayal when Aztec had made his relationship with Sandra public and even had a wedding for them both? Was it a betrayal when she had been dumped and she just refused to get that through her thick skull? Was it a betrayal when Beatrice had long known where she stood with the Marshall alpha?This woman was a piece of work and right now, she had come to disturb the peace of a woman who had been in pain the whole day.“You really want your ass kicked again, right?” Sandra asked angrily. This woman had audacity and Sandra was tempted to remind Beatrice that her dumb theatrics at the Shari ball had led to the marking that Beatrice sounded so scared of. Sandra wasn't sure what the marking meant, but having to be recognized as some barbaric alpha's claim was certainly never on her bucket list. Sandra was scared of the truth that was wa

    [SANDRA] "What do we do, Noah?” Amanda asked, freaking out about Luna being on the floor. She had tried to see if she was breathing, but Sandra's breaths were shallow, not to mention her mark was slowly swelling. At least now they could tell why she had been suffering for so long. "Look at her neck,” Noah pointed out and Amanda let out a defeated sigh. She had been so mad at the girl for being the alpha’s choice, blamed her for all the misfortunes of the Marshall pack and yet they were watching her suffering because she hadn't been marked in the right manner. The younger wolves of course couldn't tell the difference this early, but Amanda and Noah were not young. "No wonder she didn't want the alpha to come,” Amanda said as she looked at the frail woman, removing the stray hairs from her face. Amanda was conflicted. She wanted to blame Sandra for being too perfect, but this girl was already going through enough shit. It would be too cruel for her to be jealous of Sandra’s pai

    [SANDRA] Gemma looked at the sleeping woman on the couch, before she looked at Noah and Amanda like she was waiting for them to confess to having put Sandra in that state. She was skeptical and the knives in her boots weren't making it any easier for Amanda and Noah to be calm. Granted, they were werewolves, but they were just regular wolves with no position whatsoever in their community. The woman they were looking at looked like she had gone to war and back. Her voice was still cold and her gear looked so scary. "What happened to her?” Gemma asked as she walked to Sandra, before she tucked her gun in her right boot like it was normal for her. She was scared, but that didn't matter right now, because the only thing she wanted was to make sure Sandra was okay. "She—” Amanda began and Gemma looked at her, waiting for the woman to continue, but the mortified world decided to let Noah carry on. And so Noah told Gemma of what had happened, from the beginning to the end. He told her

    [SANDRA]The ride to the hospital wasn't long, given that traffic at that time wasn't as heavy as usual. It was almost like everyone was waiting for the fragile girl to get to the hospital. And when they got there, Gemma stepped aside as they wheeled her best friend into the emergency room. She looked distraught, and hoped that the doctors would find out what was wrong with her. Gemma knew there had to be werewolf doctors in this hospital and who could tell what was wrong with Sandra, and frankly, she was thankful for that. Thirty minutes into the wait, one of the doctors came to meet her, finally stopping her from almost digging a hole in the hospital hallway from her fast pacing. She hadn't even told Aztec that his wife was in the hospital yet."Ms. Franzel?” the doctor called out and Gemma hurried to her."How is she, doctor? What is wrong with my sweet Franzel?” Gemma asked and the doctor told her to take a seat. Gemma looked at the man, wondering why she had to take a shot bef

    [SANDRA] Pushing the door open, Gemma was scared she didn't know what was waiting for her on the other side. Granted the doctors had talked about Sandra being okay and needing her mate, but what about her emotions? Did they ever consider the fact that this was because of Aztec? Did they even know that our best friend had been forced to marry their damn alpha? 'Get it together, Gemma,’ Gemma scolded herself as she walked in the hospital room, the stench of medicine hitting her nose and for a moment, she felt bad for Sandra. She knew Sandra hated being at the hospital from the moment she had watched her parents die in this very hospital. She had been young, but old enough to know when she was alone in the world and would be traded through the foster system like she meant nothing. "I could have bought you flowers, but there are no black flowers in the market y’know,” Gemma said when she walked closer to Sandra's hospital bed. The room was huge and it felt like one of the bedsit

    [SANDRA] "Room 302, but she already has a visitor,” the nurse at the station said, but Aztec didn't care. Instead, he just nodded at the nurse like he would be patient enough and wait for the visitor to walk out. He wouldn't and he knew that too. "Thank you,” Aztec managed to spell out before he disappeared. Broderick looked at his boss whose stress levels seemed to have spiked. The last time he saw Aztec like this was when his mother had died and that was one tough situation that even Derek had to fight with Aztec to snap him back to reality. Broderick wanted to tell the alpha that Luna would be okay, but even he was worried. He had seen how Sandra had been that morning and while he wanted to say that to Aztec, there was a very h

    [AZTEC] "He divorced me, remember?” Sandra argued and Rodrigo just let out a deep chuckle."Divorced you? Girl, you’re everything to him. You even have shares in your name at the house of Marshall. If anything he gave you the second largest shares in the company and even had an asset finance account for you. “If he really divorced you, and if that was just alimony then why did he take his time to make sure that it was in the right spot? Why would he pay too much attention to the little details and keep everything the way it needed to be then? “He worships you, Gina. He believed in you and you are everything to him. Even after the year ended, he never filed for a divorce. Instead, he bought properties and put them in his name and yourself. “He said that he was hoping that maybe someday, if he never met you again, maybe the finances and the wealth in your name would be enough of an apology for what he did to you. You were his lifeline, Gina.“You're his lifeline and without you, he

    [AZTEC]“Sir, do you need anything?” a nurse said, as she tapped Aztec who was sleeping on the cold benches. For the rest of the day, the young Marshall had not even gotten up, let alone even making a move from where he had been laying. He had stared at the same spot, waiting and listening. He had heard when the general came to his daughters and even when the general checked out. He had heard the hospital was scheduled and frankly him being there worried people a lot. He looked tired and fatigued even though he had been sleeping."No, I’m alright, thank you,” Aztec said as he went back to sleep. He was hungry and hadn't eaten shit in so many hours. He had been too busy worrying about Sandra and Gemma and he couldn't even think of something else. "But sir, you’ve been sleeping here the whole day. Are you okay? We did notice that your temperatures are alternating rapidly. Please let us take care of you. “Besides, you are in the hospital and it wouldn't be fair if we let you suffer e

    [AZTEC] For hours, Aztec Marshall sat in the hospital waiting room on the ground floor, while his wife and Gemma were on the third floor. He wanted to go to them, but he was also worried that he would be a little too possessive of his mate and they would send him away. He didn't want to do that to them and he didn't want to be kicked out of the hospital. He was going to be diligent, even though he could see people taking photos of him. Thanks to his popularity and everything that related with his life, Aztec had become an internet topic. Everyone was gushing over him for being brave and wanted to thank him in person, and on the other hand, he was cuddled up on one of the waiting benches, sick and tired. He hadn't slept in weeks and he didn't remember the last time he ever slept. His nights and days were filled with Sandra, though it was somewhat heartbreaking that the woman he wanted so much hated him."Where are my daughters?” General Stevens came to the hospital a few hours afte

    [AZTEC] The nation was busy, everyone was having all eyes on the Franzels and the Marshalls. There were so many things happening at the same time, but none of them could have prepared anyone for the impact that Sandra Franzel had on them all. For starters, she had been the reason Scarlet had been murdered by Aztec, an act that would eventually be investigated, but the chances of the Franzels coming out and saying that their alpha was the one who had murdered their daughter were close to none.They had betrayed their alpha first and that was grounds for treason in the werewolf culture. They didn't stand a chance. They knew that they didn't have any other option left because with Aztec Marshall, it was either death or death. Nothing else came in between especially when it came to the Luna he was still hoping to bring to his side. The alpha was raging, there were explosions which also meant that the military was eventually going to be involved."Gemma, don't leave this hospital. I wil

    [AZTEC]It wasn't daily that explosions were experienced in one of the most secure buildings in the city of Adamera, not to mention the sheer fact that Sandra, Aztec’s ex had been the one targeted. That wasn't coincidence, and even the blind to the situation could see it all too. It was crazy, because everyone knew not to go against Aztec Marshall."I will take care of her well. I always have,” Logan said, making Aztec grit his teeth. He didn’t like Logan and frankly the same could be said for the medical personnel too. He wasn't a fan of Aztec from the moment he and Gemma had learned that Sandra was being forced into a contract marriage with the man. Of course as usual they had tried to give Sandra options but then her parents had been insistent, and Sandra had also figured that there was no point in trying to run away from her horrible reality.That was because no matter what she did, she would always come back to that point of helplessness. She never wanted to burden her friends

    [AZTEC]"I'll kill them,” Aztec managed out when he reached the company and saw the explosion. He could still see the damage there. The pavements were filled with wish shards, and the car had been blown to bits. Everyone was checking on everyone, and those that were hit by the shards were trying to get some medical care. There were still no paramedics, save for the pack members who had come to help the people who had been hurt. It had been a command by the pack’s beta, Rodrigo and so far, they were doing so well. Everyone seemed busy, and Gemma was studying the car for anything and everything that could tell them who their attacker was. She was checking where the explosion had started from and what had happened. Sure she knew that someone was trying to send a message, but even in her state, she was hoping that she could be of help to the people there.“I’ll kill them all,” Aztec whispered agAin as he took in the sight before him. He was looking for his Luna, the love of his life, a

    [AZTEC]‘You had her, and you lost her. Now it seems like you're gonna lose her again.’‘How many more times does she have to be hurt before you realize what you’re doing to her?’‘You should have let her go, when she left, but you keep roping her into every disaster in your life.’‘You don't deserve her.’‘She’s too good for you.’Aztec Marshall was in a fight with his subconscious. It kept reminding him of everything that he had done wrong and how he could have fixed all of this earlier, but he was too much of a coward to even work it out. He had had the chance to step up, to get her back, to fight for her.He had promised to give her a good life at the altar, and while that had been an illusion for a moment, he should have been kinder to her. He should have done better, and he knew it. Funny how all of this was coming at him when he was headed to another accident that involved her. He wasn't good for her and he knew it, but how was he supposed to teach his heart to hold on and fig
