Alpha Jaxon"What do you mean your breast ripper wasn't there in the morning?" The former alpha stood, with tension gripping everyone in the room. The utterance alone from me was enough to put every single werewolf in there on high alert. That particular information was only known to me until I decided to put it out there."I always look at all my weapons before leaving the office and every morning when I step in." They were like my fine jewelry, which I treasured. Since recovering them from Cane, I had made sure to confirm every day that they are locked in the office cabinet."And the locks? Were they tampered with?" Mr. Weller asked, adjusting his specs. The man had perfect vision but always said he felt the need to wear spectacles for fun."No, the door was locked, and so was the cabinet. I am the only one who has the keys; not even my mate has a spare." I had spent the entire day trying to figure out how the perpetrator got in. I was tempted to have Scarlett help me solve it, but
Scarlett"From a scale of 1-10, how mad do you think the alpha will be at us?" Thiery took a right turn on the gravel road, driving slowly to avoid catching up with Jasper. Thiery told me he had already left in what seemed like a hurry. We couldn't outright risk him seeing us; it would raise suspicion."10," I simply stated, taking a bite of crisps I found inside Thiery's car."Jeez, luna, that really helped." He lamented, pouting."It's the truth, and don't call me luna again." I took another bite before turning to look outside the window. It was almost 7 p.m., with a cold breeze wrapping around us even though the heater was on. We were minutes away from our pack, heading to the nearest town that bordered the Yellow Moon pack.Thiery scoffed when I stashed a number of crisps in my mouth, chewing loudly. They were salty and sweet, with just the right amount of cheese and onion flavor. "Hey, I have a bad feeling about the man that was attacked yesterday."He spoke after some time of ju
ScarlettI opened my eyes, squinting to adjust to the stream of light from a small window. The room smelt of blood and body fluids, coupled with a smell I hadn't forgotten."Silas." I whispered, looking around the small space. I didn't know what to feel at that moment, but one thing was certain: I wasn't afraid of the foolish alpha. In fact, I licked my lower lip in anticipation of tearing him apart, limb by limb. Jax's face flashed before my eyes, making my wolf whimper. I needed to know what Silas had planned, then I would contact him, my mate.Just then the door creaked open, allowing more sunlight to stream through. "Slept okay, my little slave?" The man mocked me, raising an eyebrow when I growled."Oh, and she finally got her wolf." He mocked me again, earning a louder growl from me."Where's Thiery?" I shifted on the seat, similar to the one Cane had tied me into. Chains bound my arms and legs, stopping me from making much movement. I couldn't wait to burn them while I looked a
JaxonScarlett, I whispered, locked up inside my wolf, who had taken over the minute we couldn't find her. Following word from the guards at the gate, we had traced Thiery's car at the mall, but he and Scar were nowhere to be seen. I had gone berserk; my wolf had broken within seconds inside the mall, and shit hit the fan.It took a dozen men to stop my wolf from hurting more people as he looked for his mate. The metal door creaked from afar before Astra's scent hit my wolf's nose. He stood on all fours, snarling at the woman as she stood before us. It had taken her magic to incapacitate me, giving warriors enough time to lock me inside a cell in the dungeons."Alpha." She bowed, a roar from the deepest part of my wolf sent the bars almost rattling."I can't talk to you in your wolf form; you need to shift." My wolf wouldn't listen; he was set on sinking his teeth into anyone to get his mate back. I pleaded with him to allow me to shift into our human form, but he only snarled. Astra
ScarlettThe door creaked, pulling me out of my jumbled mind. I could smell Thiery before he stepped in, my wolf letting out a powerful snarl. We saw him for the traitor he was, needing to be executed in that instant. Whatever sibling love I thought I had for him was replaced by a sinister feeling. I pictured his bloody self lying on the ground, gagging on his own blood, begging for mercy that I wouldn't dream of granting."Get up." He commanded, making me snap my jaw."Look, you'll still remain the Luna. Only this time around, you'll rule a bigger pack, merged together." He stated this nonchalantly as he worked on untying me. I kept my mouth shut, swallowing saliva to avoid spitting in his stupid ass face."Come on." He instructed me to stand, making my brows furrow."Where are you taking me?" I spat, gritting my teeth together. I wobbled a bit, my vision becoming a little blurry. I hadn't had a decent meal for hours, and my stomach kept on churning."Move; I don't want to hurt you."
Alpha JaxonYou could hear a pin drop at that moment. I felt Scarlett's anger gnawing and banging incessantly inside her, forcing her to be let out. Her face was contorted in a scowl, her thick dark brows furrowed, and a visible sheen of sweat coated her creased forehead. Her lips were chapped, and I couldn't help but boil inside with the thought of her having gone for hours without food."Wh-y?" She muttered, hanging her head. I could hear the strain in her voice even as it dipped.Her mother, the person responsible for the murder of my own, cackled. I wanted nothing but to tear her limb by limb, have Astra heal her, then repeat the process again and again. She looked smug, wearing a long red robe that swept the foliage. My ankles were burning as the ringlets coiled, tightening around me."Why did you allow Silas to mistreat me, abuse me, when you had all this power?" Scar's broken voice penetrated my ears, snapping me out of my thoughts. I could only see Astra's back as she looked a
Scarlett"I need to know one thing before you proceed." I spoke lowly, staring at the woman I thought was my mother. Her actions had my stomach contents churning, looking for an exit."Did you know about the rape?" I looked at Silas briefly, who responded by smirking. Jax growled, wincing when the ringlets tightened. When she didn't answer, I nodded, concluding that she knew about it. Her silence was enough to force more heated energy to flow rapidly through my veins.She tilted her head slightly to look at Silas over her shoulder, and then she uttered. "No."Her voice hardened, making me chuckle bitterly. "You're lying." I shook my head, watching as Thiery trudged back with a bowl and two candles in his palm. Jax growled, choking on the sound of it as the ringlets pressed on his lower stomach. I tilted my head, observing as my mother held the items in her palms. She stared at them before looking at all of us, then threw her head back. She let out a cackle, shaking her head as red fla
***Scarlett*** "No, it can't be!" My mother shook her head, eyes wide as if she had seen a ghost. "Seize her!" She turned to Silas, who was already making his way toward me. "Paralizzare." The utterance flowed easily past my lips, stopping Silas right in his tracks. I wasn't even familiar with the words, but they seemed to conform to my thoughts. The sound of gasps heightened as Silas remained rooted to the ground, asking me to set him free. "Lasciarsi andare." My mother shouted, standing on her feet and towering over my short frame. "Have you no shame?" I raised an eyebrow, tilting my head to get a good look at her disgusting face. "Lasciarsi andare." She repeated, a look of controlled fear passing behind her evil eyes before she quickly masked it. I could feel her magic swaying mine, giving Silas just enough space to stretch his hand. She was trying to override my spell, but her efforts proved futile. "Let my mate go, and I'll set your minion free." My voice deepened as silenc
