Savoring a

mouthful of omelet, Scarlett couldn't resist stealing a glance at the

incredibly handsome man beneath her long lashes. It's doubtful that this man

could be a thousand years old.

In the world of

shifters, longer lives for wolves were nothing groundbreaking. However, for

regular wolves, it rarely exceeded 300 years, and the Alpha bloodline could

approach 500 years. When a wolf pup turned 16 or 17, they gained their wolves

under the full moon. Before that, they were considered pups and grew up like

normal humans. Once they transformed into wolves as adults, their aging process

slowed down.

For Scar, she

found her wolf at 16. Though she knew a lycan could live up to 1000 years, she

never imagined a millennium-old Lycan would look around thirty! How on earth

does he manage to stay so youthful?

"What

to slip from her hand. Blinking, she looked up and shook her head, stammering,

"Nn-nothing! Nothing... Haha.

All the eyes were on them, precisely, the source of the drama, Scarlett Rowan. Without doing nothing she got stuck into an unwadable drama. Was that her fault? Or Danielle? She did not start the fight in the first place, still, everyone had concluded the final decision in their heads. Danielle's sharp gaze followed her up and down in pure disgust. "What does she have to be the Luna of the pack, Nicholas? No status, no strength, only her tainted blood. And those..." Once again her eyes found her features, "hair! She doesn't even have respect to be modest but wears these bold colours like a clown! And you think she is the best fit in your life?" "I have decided Mom. It won't change."

    Nicholas directly walked into his private place in the Royal Fort, hanging Scarlett on her shoulder. But she wasn't the one to take his unnecessary dominance when he was not clean himself. At least, Alpha Blood has its own arrogance. All the way Scarlett yelled at him to let her go, bumping her fists on his back. "I swear on the moon, Nicholas! Let me go or else... Agh!" An audible gasp broke out of her chest when she landed on the soft surface, almost flying. In the next second, her red lips were crushed by his warm one in a punishing kiss. The wildness in him started to unleash, melting her under his touch. No matter how much of a strength she concurred, Scarlett couldn’t use any. Even her wolf was powerless under his aggression.

She was bound by the dark spell and wouldn't be able to use her powers. What would he do now? "So?" Lucian arched his brow at the most powerful Alpha who was vulnerable before him. "What did you decide, Alpha Nicholas?" "How will I know you will let her go once I drank this," Nicholas asked. The cold fear was coursing his heart inch by inch. Lucian laughed.

    Scarlett followed Ulva's lead. She paused in the middle of the forest and closed her eyes. Nothing but darkness covered her. She drowned herself in the depths of her soul and called for her mother. 'Please, help me, mother...' Her entire body spoke for her. Soon, Scarlett felt each vein coming to life. She was floating and felt lightened. "Scarlett..." An ethereal tone echoed in her head appeasing her soul. Scarlett opened her eyes. A lady with shining silver hair and lavender eyes, standing in front of her. Their resemblance connected them and Scarlett's heart clenched tightly. "Mother..."

The entire shifters' world probably were searching for her by now. The love of her life might be ripping the world for her. However, would anyone ever think that she was right under their noses? They probably wouldn't imagine her existence in her own pack! Scarlett was immersed in thoughts, sitting alone in the dungeon. After describing his story, Lucian went out, saying he had to take care of his opponent first. Scarlett only hoped he would not hurt Nicholas by any means. As she was thinking silently, the subtle sound of footsteps alarmed her. A shadow formed in the dark and soon the figure came out in the light. Scarlett gasped in silence. She did not expect this particular figure here. "George!" "shh"... He shushed her, squatting beside her and whispered, "You alright?" He asked, as if he was worried. Scarlett did not reply to

    'Alpha Lucian...' Scarlett could not believe her eyes. Wasn't this man the Alpha of the beautiful Western Mountain pack? Her childhood friend Matt belongs to that pack, even the future Alpha, isn't he? How could it turn out like this? How on earth this man who appeared sweet and gentle turned into the Master of dark witches! "Nice meeting you again, Alpha... Oh, or should I say, Queen Scarlett?" He raised his brow at her and chuckled a little. Disgust rushed through her spine. Since childhood, Scarlett learned one thing only, Dark witches are not anyone's friend. Even the entire witch clan tend to ignore their own kind. They are the most hated enemies as well as the most dangerous ones. Those who shook hands with them were nothing but an evil soul. Because dark witches followed the evil clan and once one entered into their clan, there was no way to return. "Why did you bring me here?" Scarlett asked harshly, she was angry. "Yes, yes, I will give every answer to your question, Q

    "Ma'am, why don't you drink some water before?" The lady asked before pulling out the dress from the bag. Scarlett smiled, "No thanks, I am fine." She declined softly, turning to the closed door once. For some reason, she was not enough comfortable to be with these women around her. Although they were humans, something was off. Probably, because they were human. Considering it was her first time encountering a human here, it was a weird experience. The lady smiled, "It's okay, ma'am. Before the wedding, every girl turned nervous. I am telling you from my personal experience. Please sip at least. You will feel better." The lady seemed sweet to her, caring even. She heard humans were a bit pushy always, yet kind. Turning to the bottle she offered, Scar felt she could have a sip of water. Thanking the lady, she took the bottle and drank half of it. The lady took the glass as Scar sat quietly, looking at the mirror, as she watched the other two women prepping the dress for her. He

Alaina and Nicole were there to take Scarlett with them. It's a rule of the royals. On the wedding day, the couple could not see each other till they were wedded. Nicholas was grumpy, yet no one listened to him and even dared to ignore the Alpha's order. Scarlett was almost dragged out by her friends and the preparation started. Rubbing her sleepy eyes, Scarlett complied with everything they arranged for her. The hair and makeup artists were in awe of her beauty. They kept praising her flawless skin and shiny curls. Scarlett was shy all the while and kept thanking them. After the hair and makeup were ready, it was time to wear her dress. The dress has a zipper system so it wouldn't ruin her hair and makeup.

For a moment, she was speechless in her overwhelmed emotions and choking up in her tears. "Y-ou want to..." She could not speak further. The happiness was boundless as she covered her mouth. Nicholas chuckled. Lowering his head, he kissed her face and nodded. "I do and..." He paused. "A-and...?" Her voice shook. Slowly moving her hand from her mouth, he pinned them over her head.
