In the huge pack Hall of the Mystic Howl, the entire council gathered on very short notice. Everyone was startled and later shocked by the reason for the summoning. Nicholas Rodrigo declared to sign the W.W.P. for Alpha regent! Even though a few more Alphas and worthy generals were in the line for the position, he was the most worthy opponent, who was an unofficially announced winner! Everything was on his plate after so long. Less than three months remained only, so what was the problem? The news spread like Lava and the entire pack started gossiping. Most of them blamed Scarlett without even knowing what was happening. In their eyes, since the day she entered the pack, bad things were happening and now, their Alpha was withdrawing for the Alpha regent position while she was busy with her own pack! This was unacceptable! Even people who were competing against him were shocked by the news. All of them were curious to learn the reason. Elder Elijah also arrived to see what was real
The entire hall turned pin-dropped silent once again. All heads turned in the same direction and Nicholas's eyes just snapped. He was like a statue, baffled and speechless. Holding the pen on the document still, he couldn't believe his eyes. It's a woman. No! Not just a woman but it's her... His mate... Scarlett... But... Nicholas closed his eyes, he was not delusional, was he? When he opened his eyes, she was still there, standing in the same tracksuit he watched her last time, only this time it appeared dirtier. However, those were not his concerns but her presence. He let go of a shaky breath as she started walking toward him. All eyes were on her and hers were on him only. The man she loves and yes, she is not scared to confess it anymore. She didn't know if this was a part of her mission, yet ready to face it with him. With every step she took toward him, it lessened the chance for her to turn back, even if her destined mate came for her, she knew not to look back at him.
Scarlett watched the old man carefully. The fear in his eyes was real, staring at her. She felt confused. Ulva yawned, 'He knows us...' She muttered, lying at a side, feeling bored. 'Knows us?' Scarlett frowned inwardly. 'You mean, our truth?' 'Yeah, pretty much it.' Scarlett murmured again, rolling around comfortably. 'Scar, just end this. I am bored, you know.' Scarlett '.....' How could her wolf say this at a time like this? 'Don't give me that look.' Ulva replied. 'We found our partner. Stopped him from signing. Now give the culprits to the law and let's go back!' 'Yeah, fine, whatever...' She once again focused her eyes back on the old man and heard, "Elder Elijah, will you please explain?" Everyone was curious, except Nicholas and Scarlett. Nicholas already read his thoughts and Scar had known. Coming down from his seat, Elder Elijah slowly walked toward his Queen. He never thought he would encounter the beauty once again like this. His pack really disappointed him even
Every mouth turned shut. Their doubts were clear. So, this wolf girl is right! Surprisingly, she not only saved herself from the kidnappers, but she even stopped her mate from signing the WWP on time! Both Alex and Lauren were on the ground. Although Alex turned silent, Lauren was the opposite even after getting beaten by Nicole. She still wanted to kill Scarlett, glaring at her. "How did you get out?" She screamed at her, practically growling insanely. She was shocked seeing her alive, and couldn't believe her eyes. It was Alex who forced her to leave immediately when Scarlett entered the hall, yet they failed because of Dave and Nicole. "I killed you by myself! I injected that syringe of the drug in you! How!?" She slumped on the ground, almost shaking it. The entire hall gasped again and Nicholas stiffened. He didn't know this! Understanding his side, Scar squeezed his hand, and whispered to him, "I am fine... How about you report the drug now?" Nicholas nodded silently. Howe
People gathered around him. They were sad, especially, Nicholas and Nicole. Nicole was crying. Even a moment ago everything was good and now, suddenly turned into a mess. The entire council was in utter shock. They couldn't believe their eyes. The beta was dead! Beside Nicholas, standing Scarlett, fighting with her wolf in the head. Not entirely fighting, but it was more of a heated discussion. 'Do not forget, he is Alaina's mate! They didn’t even get to know each other properly and this happened! That poor girl doesn't even have any idea!' 'But, Scar...' Ulva tried to argue, yet Scarlett stopped her firmly, 'No buts, Ulva. I am doing this and I do not fucking care anymore! He needs to be saved! Understand! He died while protecting us! Doing his duty! I can not stand this and won't!' she declared and Ulva finally gave up. 'Fine, whatever you wish...' Breaking the crowd, Scarlett stepped toward Dave. He was lying down with eyes closed, no life in his body. He seemed to be sleepin
An entire month passed by and the atmosphere in the shifters' world was extensive with elation. Both packs, Mystic Howl and Night Walker felt blessed as the Queen chose their pack to call home. The application for merging two packs was immediately accepted by both councils. After all, no one wanted to dishearten the Queen. People from different packs were visiting to have a glance at the Queen and those who had seen her, never left a drop of praise. After the revelation, Both Duke and the Chauffeur returned in their own pack, breathing fresh. Duke was once again appointed as her personal guard and this time, he was promoted a big time. Everyone knows him as the Queen's Warrior. The same goes for the chauffeur too. He turned to the Queen's personal chauffeur and enjoyed their lives. While their friends and fellow colleagues were envious, their families were proud of them. From the average house, they shifted into the packhouse with their families. Amid the chaos, Scarlett felt bl
"woo... You hawe siwer hair..." (You have silver hair.) The little pup on her lap watched her hair with eyes widened and sparkling. His little hands clasped together as he blinked at her hair. Following a couple of childish giggling turned the air melodious, "No-no, not silver and orange too!" Another pup from beside spoke. She was a bit older than the one on her lap. "And eyes!" The other pup added excitedly. "Miss Queen..." Apart from all the giggles, there was another little she-pup. She was a bit shy and not expressive like her friends. Scarlett turned to her, "Yes?" Lowering her eyes, the little girl tapped her fingers on the ground. "C-an I touch your hair, pweasee..." (Please). With a tender smile, Scarlett nodded and the little girl timidly touched her long curls before withdrawing her hand. Her eyes were awestruck and full of curiosity. "Beautiful..." She muttered. "Thank you, love." Scar patted her head and she once again lowered her eyes, feeling shy. These were the
Slowly, as if hypnotised, Nicholas stepped toward Scarlett. She realised his scent finally and turned to meet his gaze, surprised. Others also noticed the Alpha. They bowed at him before taking away their children and giving the Alpha and Luna their privacy. Scarlett did not want to let go of the pups, yet she had to. Standing up, she closed a little distance from him with a soft smile and question in her gaze. "Nicholas, you're here this time?" She was happy to see him as well as surprised. He caressed her cheeks, "You didn't pick up your phone, so I came." "Oh!" Scarlett gasped and then immediately turned to the tea table. "Ah, my phone was on the table and I was playing with the children. I didn't notice." She felt slightly guilty, "Did I worry you?" She asked, hesitantly. Nicholas holds her by the waist, inhaling her scent. "I was worried, but not anymore." He caressed her hair lightly, "Did I disturb you?" He asked and she shook her head, leaning on his muscled chest. "No
"So... You're not getting married?" Scarlett pursed her lips, feeling embarrassed now for assuming things wrongly. She thought Nicholas was getting married but it's not the truth. Nicole was getting married. Yes, she is. To her mate whom she rejected 400 years ago. Nicholas brought him back for his sister. With time he realised how it hurts when you have to let go of your mate. Her mate forgave her and both became happy. Since Nicholas became the Alpha regent, he erased the traditional discrimination and royals become people with emotions nowadays. Their mother specifically. She become more flexible toward acceptance. Nicholas holds her tight in his arms, nuzzling her neck. His fear of losing her still lingered inside his heart and he wasn't able to let her leave his arms. "No, I am not... But, I should have done this before so you return earlier." He muttered. "I won't let you go anywhere now. If you try to, I would lock you up in the jar so you don't vanish." Scarlett leaned on
In the Astral World... The kingdom of Goddesses was shining, decorated so beautifully, flowing the festive mood. Everyone has gathered in the Kingdom of Selene, the Moon Goddess to celebrate the birthday of her first menae. All her children and their families came. The place was crowded. However, the prime face of the celebration was nowhere to be seen. Far away from the chaos, Scarlett was Sitting under the tree of stars. Alone and distant from others. Nothing could cheer her up, apart from the thought that her mate down there doing a good job running his packs. Although there was no count of time in the ethereal world, it's been three long years in the world where she left her heart years ago. She heard Nicholas is doing a great job. He has become the Alpha Regent. His curse is gone now. He can shift and go near to any woman. From one of her sisters, she heard that he was probably getting married soon with royal blood. That broke her heart though she felt happy for him. At le
Nicholas glared at the psychotic man. Alpha Lucian did not just break into his wedding day, he kidnapped his bride, bound them in a dark spell and disclosed his curse to the world. Now, he has placed poison for him in exchange for Scarlett's life. The entire pack was panicked and their belief was crushed by the cruel truth. Everyone was demanding an answer while Lucian smirked at him. However, Nicholas does not care about his curse, power or future anymore. His only thought was Scarlett. 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. "Alpha Nicholas, you must know that my obsession with Scarlett was longer than you imagined. I did everything to get her. Once you're gone, s
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..." Her voice shook and her throat turned heavy. Emotions were crawling and past lives started flashing before her eyes slowly. "My child." Moon Goddess Selen was touched to see her daughter. She stretched her hands toward her firstborn. "Come to Mother." Scarlett did not waste a single second before running to her mother. She knew her. The moon Goddess for all but a lovely mother to her. For yea
Fear does not suit the Warrior Moon. The Goddess by blood. And Scarlett chose not to let her weakness wracked her senses. She sat in the dark dungeon. 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
Finally, the most anticipated day came. As soon as morning tried to peek out, the door of the master bedroom was knocked, breaking the peaceful sleep of the couple. 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. However, the problem was the designer lady still didn't appear with the dress. Both Nicole and her mother were
'Let's mark each other.' His words came unregistered. It took time for Scar to digest what he said, yet she successfully gasped out her surprise. 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. His eyes darkened as he started nibbling on her sensitive spot, arousing her once again for his merciless torture. "And give me a bunch of pups..." He whispered in her ear, once again choking her breath. "I want to see your swollen belly full of my pups. You'll move around barefooted all over the Fort and demand things from me. I want you to be my wife, Scarlett."Saying, he inserted in her moistened hole. "Yeehs!" She moaned. It was for both his answer and a
