Zelda continued glaring at Scarlett until she had to force herself to look away. She closed her eyes, and ran a nervous finger along her hairline.

Kellan was staring at her, noting how she got immediately she'd seen Scarlett. Her expression had immediately changed the moment Scarlett stepped into the space.

"Are you okay, Zelda? You look like you've seen a ghost." Kellan said with a straight face.

"No. No. I'm perfectly fine. Please, come and sit. Forgive my manners." Zelda said, gesturing to the sofas.

Kellan raised a brow, and looked at Scarlett. Why did the witch suddenly change on seeing Scarlett? Does his personal guard have more potentials than he expected?

Scarlett led the way into living room, and stepped aside, allowing Kellan to take his seat.

"I'm also here with my beta. Tell Rick to come in, Scarlett." Kellan said, and waited until Scarlett got Rick into the living room. He took the next seat after his pleasantries with Zelda.

Scarlett stood behind Kellan, still looking at

    The look on Kellan's face was a triumphant one when he saw Caliban finally on the ground.He centered his eyes on Scarlett, smiled when he saw her turn with a triumphant look in her face.There was a huge silence all over the place, and a single noise could hardly be heard.Caliban laid sprawled on the floor with his face concocted into pain. Some guards rushed up towards him, helping him off the ground."I didn't know a woman would break my record." Caliban said to Scarlett after he was helped to his feet. "You took me unaware though."Scarlett smiled, and shook her head. "No. I did not take you unaware. I only attacked you when you least expected it sir." She replied humbly."Yeah, right. I can see that. Well, impressive." Caliban said to Scarlett. The men who had lifted him off the floor took him away from the field while Scarlett remained on the field. She looked around, and a very few people clapped their hands. *********Zelda watched Scarlett as she exited the field, and felt

    Kellan paced in his room, looking impatient. It had been almost an hour since he'd asked Rick to get Scarlett, and he was yet to return with her.He was about calling him when there was a sudden knock on the door, and Kellan turned abruptly."Come in already." He snapped.The door opened, and Rick walked in, looking very worried.Kellan looked at him with fury in his eyes, wondering why Scarlett wasn't with him."What happened? Where's Scarlett?" He demanded."I couldn't find her, My king. It's very strange, because none of the other guards saw her come back here to the exclusive guest house.""What does that even mean?" Kellan asked, and turned to grab his phone from the bed. Quickly, he dialed Scarlett's line, and strangely, it turned out to be unreachable.Kellan's brows quirked as he turned to look at Rick. "It's strange. Her line is unreachable.""What do we do, Sire? It's very strange for her to disappear like this without a trace."Kellan marched towards the coat stand, grabbed

    "What? How? How did you get here?" Scarlett asked, greatly surprised."Don't you think that this is not the right time to be asking questions?" Zeke scolded as he rushed towards her, dropped his sword, and knelt behind her.Scarlett winced in pain when the ropes finally loosened from her wrist. She stretched her hands as Zeke helped her to feet."Careful." Zeke mumbled, encircling his arm around her waste. , Together, they started towards the door.Scarlett's eyes widened when she saw how deserted the whole place was, and was excited when her eyes found Aria and the others running towards them."My goodness!! Look what they did to you!" Aria gasped, dropping her sword, and holding her by the other arm.Scarlett smiled at her. "I'm better, Aria. But...but... it's strange. Are the enemies all gone?""They surprisingly took off when they saw us arriving.""Where's this place?" Scarlett asked."Caliban's house. You remember the guy you'd fought with at the tournament? He happens to have g

    There was a brief silence in the room as Kellan said those words. Rosita walked in, interrupting the silence as she moved closer to Zelda, and whispered something in her ear."I'm in a meeting right now. Tell them to wait for me." She ordered, and turned back to look at Kellan. Rosita bowed, and left through the way she came."Just like you said, any other wolf could have that sort of colour." Kellan said, hoping he was right. He couldn't bear it if his mate was the cursed woman in the prophecy.Zelda nodded, but there was a doubtful look on her face. "Yes, that's true. But it's very rare to see a red haired wolf. Very rare. And when one is seen, it's as strange as anything.""What are you trying to say?" Kellan asked."I'm not trying to say anything, king Kellan. A wolf with such colour is bound to be extraordinary." Zelda replied.Negan listened as they talked. His face was expressionless, making it impossible to detect what he could be thinking about."Why did you say she's missing

    Winter's eyes darkened as she stared at Rolf, shocked to her bones. She shifted from one foot to the other, and shook her head in disbelief."What are you talking about, you joker? Are you trying to make me laugh right now?"Rolf shook his head, holding the bars tightly and desperately. "No, my lady. I'm not joking. I have a witness to this. Gemma. You can go, and ask her right now."Winter looked at Rolf, still shocked. She moved back, and slightly swayed on her feet.She recollected the faces of the people she'd seen in the palace, and couldn't imagine anyone as being the King's missing mate.She looked at Rolf, and moved closer to him with a daring look in her eyes. "Who's it?" She asked."Her name is Scarlett. She's the King's assistant." Rolf replied after a few seconds of silence.Winter laughed and shook her head. "If you wanted to make me laugh, well, you succeeded. Scarlett? This is insane!" She exploded, looking fiercely angry."I know it's insane, because she has been here

    **Somewhere In The Capital Pack Area**Glimmer walked stealthily towards the gathered crowed in front of the bungalow building, his eyes filled with contempt and rage. He held a sheathed sword by the side, and the other hand was a pocket knife which he slipped into his pocket as he approached the crowd.He stood in front of them, scrutinizing the people before him."I gathered us this morning to talk about our next movement after such a long break. We lost most of our competent members during the last attack at the Alphas' meeting. It was disastrous because they killed most of us." Glimmer said in a dangerous voice, his breath becoming erratic."Now, we are back. Stronger. Crueller. To them, we are the rouges, but to us, we are?""The rippers." The people standing before him chorused, raising their swords in the air."After we were unfairly and unjustly banished from our pack, what did they expect from us? Were they expecting us to become angels?"We've just started, and all the pack

    Kellan stiffened, his arms tightening around Scarlett. He wanted to take control over himself, over his sanity, but Ragnor over took him completely, almost making him shift.Scarlett noticed what was going on, and quickly, she yanked herself away, creating some distance between them, looking nervous. Had he inhaled her scent? But she made sure she had Alexa shut the whole evening."Are you okay, my king? Your eyes...they are glowing." Scarlett mumbled, and took another step back.Kellan's eyes were on Scarlett. He couldn't stop looking at her. He was confused, and couldn't quite understand what had happened between them just few moments ago."I don't okay. And you? What happened?" He said, finally finding his voice. He wished that Scarlet had stayed longer in his arms. He wished that she didn't break free before he could get the chance to recognize the scent, but he knew for sure that it had been familiar."I'm okay, my king. I think I will just go, and come back when you're done from

    The whole place was as quiet as a grave yard, and all that could be heard was the crackles that came from the fireplace.Negan walked towards the gathered crowed in front of him, a confident look on his face. Behind, Glimmer stood, his gaze scanning the people. His eyes found Penelope, and a slight smile spread across his face."I'm happy we're all here, and safe. The fortress is getting more secured, and it's what makes me very happy. While on my way here, I was really mad, but getting here, I saw how organized things are, and it smoothened me."Glimmer walked yo the front, stood before Negan with a determined look on his face."Send us, master.

"In due time, Glimmer. Do you think I don't want to take revenge as well? I had to fight against my followers just to keep my identity. I had to do the unthinkable

    Negan led Scarlett into the car, and gave her one of the drinks he'd kept for future use."Stay here while I do something about the body." He spoke softly to her, smoothening her hair with his palm."What... what are you going to do to the body?" Scarlett asked."Don't worry about it. Just wait for me here." Negan said to her, and left in a hurry.Scarlett breathed in heavily, and stared down at her hands. The blood in her fingers had dried up, but she could still smell it, and it gave her the creeps."How did this happen to me? What did i become? How could I have killed a man like that?" Scarlett couldn't stop questioning herself. She felt bad. Terrible.

    Negan slowly placed the bottles back on the dresser, and moved few inches away from it.He placed his hands on his hips, looking awestruck. Glimmer's words crossed his mind, and the thought only paralyzed his leg.He sat on the bed, and buried his head between his palms."No. There's no way..." He paused and sighed. "If she's using hair dyes, does that mean she's...not on her real colour?" Negan questioned himself.There were too many coincidences that needed to be questioned. First, she had the same name has Glimmer's sister, she has fit in perfectly with Glimmer's description of his sister, and how, he had just found out she made use of dies."I've got to find out what's going on. I need to know if Scarlett is the woman in the prophecy." He muttered with a determined look on his face.

    "Scarlett? Are you there? Scarlett?" Negan's voice sounded in her ear, waking her up from her trace."Huh...yes, Negan?""Did you hear me?"Scarlett's fingers trembled as she took in a deep breath. Did the prince find out about her strange embarrassing colour?"N...no. why did you ask me that?" She stuttered, her heart beating fast against her chest."Nope. Nothing. I just wanted to know." Negan replied."Okay, okay. I see. But... okay. It's fine." Scarlett replied, deciding it was best she didn't talk more on it."I will see you later then?" Negan asked."Yeah, of course..." Scarlett heard the door opening from behind, and quickly said her goodbyes to Negan before cutting the line."Why did you cut your call?" Kellan asked, coming towards the bed."I just finished my conversation. That was why I cut the call, my king.""It was Negan, wasn't it?"Scarlett paused for a while before nodding. "Yes, it was.""He would never learn how to stop calling you when you're working." Kellan mutte

    "Scar?" Negan asked, glaring at Glimmer. He looked away, his face a mask of concentration. "Why does that sound familiar?""Familiar?" Glimmer asked, peering into his face. "Do you know anyone by that name?"Negan placed his hands under his chin, and slowly shook his head. "No. Not Scar. But Scarlett.""That's my sister's name. Scarlett." Glimmer replied.Negan gawked at Glimmer, looking lost. "Scarlett?" He asked after a long while of silence.Glimmer nodded with a little frown on his face. He couldn't understand why Negan looked so fixated on him."Do you know anyone by that name?" He asked."I do. The lady I know by that name is the King's personal guard and assistant, but then, there are many other Scarletts all over the world."Glimmer nodded, losing any hope he could have had. "Yes, master. That's true.""Can you... describe your sister for me?" Negan asked, capturing Scarlett in his foresight.Glimmer smiled with a faraway look in his eyes. "Oh, master." He chuckled as he pause

    Scarlett walked straight into Kellan's room with both her eyes closed, and her head, slightly sucked.Amazed, Kellan moved to a side, allowing her access into the room. He watched as she walked in, and walked straight to the front of the sofabed, and slept on the floor in front of it."My goodness. Does...she sleepwalk?" He asked himself, almost laughing. He couldn't remember the last time he was amused."She sleepwalks. It's obvious." Ragnor laughed from within.Ignoring his wolf's voice, he walked stealthily towards Scarlett who was now on the floor, sleeping with all comfort."I can't believe this. She's strong, and yet, fragile." He observed."Are you gonna pick her up? I get excited whenever you touch her! I get all dizzy-wizzy!" Ragnor laughed, and got ignored again.Kellan moved more close, and crouched down on one knee. He scooped Scarlett up in his arm, and carried her to the bed.Gently, he laid her there, and covered her up with the duvet, then relaxed back at the other sid

    Scarlett's words felt like a sharp slap in the face. Kellan stared at her for as long as she could remember, making her more uncomfortable than she already was."You're dating?" Kellan asked when he finally found his voice. He did his best not to sound too shocked.Scarlett nodded. "Yes, my king. I'm...sorry I didn't tell you earlier."Kellan looked away from her, and snorted. He couldn't help it. "I see you decided to ignore my warning after all." He got up from where he sat, and turned his back on her.Scarlett closed her eyes. She felt terribly bad, because she knew she'd just lied to the king."I... accepted the prince's proposal, because ever since I got here, he's been so nice to me. I didn't see any reasons why I should...heed your warning, my king.""Yes. Sure, of course. Anyways, it's actually none of my business.

    Negan stared back at Scarlett waiting desperately for her to say something."What? Aren't you gonna say something? This isn't the first time I'm telling you that I want you to be mine.""I... didn't think you were this serious. I didn't know you would be this jealous over me?" Scarlett gasped.Negan moved closer to her, glaring deep into her eyes. "I'm not only jealous, Scarlett. I'm mad at Kellan for taking you out so late in the night.""Don't address the king like that, my prince." Scarlett whispered, turning to glance back."Well, isn't that his real name? I called him that while we were growing up." Negan retorted."It's hard to imagine that you actually grew up the king. You two are so different from each other.""We didn't just spend our childhood days together, I was always snuggling up to him."Scarlett's jaw dropped. "What? I can't imagine you doing that!" She couldn't help but laugh."Yes. That and much more. I was always crying after him. One day, he left home without even
