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. Few minutes later, after sitting alone, she drifted into an uneasy sleep.

Kellan came out of the restroom, looking restless. His hair and face dripped of water, making it obvious he'd gone to wash up.

He sat down on his bed, took one of the napkins in the drawer, and wiped his face with it.

After that, he reache

    One Week LaterScarlett kept glancing at the wall clock as she brushed her hair in front of the mirror. It was her first day at work, and she couldn't comprehend how the hell she woke up later than she was supposed to. She had literally slept with a smile on her face due to how excited she was about it. Yet, she woke up a bit late.Done with her hair, she styled it into a ponytail and added some oil to it to give it a sheen finish. Then, she gave herself one final scrutiny in the mirror.She was robed in a black turtle-neck shirt, tucked into a black pair of trousers and black boots to match. Her hair had been dyed black, and she fixed dark lenses as well.She was perfect - she thought. Looked just like the right warrior that could protect the pack.Her hand moved up to her bare neck. The sting returned immediately, reminding her of the fact that she'd lost her precious necklace. She missed it and wished she wasn't so careless with it.No doubt, she'd left it at the suite with the str

    "My King, is there a problem?" Rick went closer and asked in a hushed undertone.Kellan said nothing still, his gaze on the strange lady. Finally, he took some steps towards her, causing the people to draw their breaths and shift uncomfortably. Scarlett was confused and just kept watching.He stopped halfway to where she was, when her looks became too confusing for him. Something about her seemed so familiar. She had the same body features as the lady from the other night. But her hair and eye color was contradicting. He was damn sure the hair and eyes of his mate were red. But the hair and eyes of the lady in front of him was black. It wasn't adding up.'They're not the same person. They just look alike.' he thought to himself.That was the possible explanation. They simply just looked alike.Conclusively, he turned away and walked back to where a table and chair had been arranged for him. Winter had seen the whole thing and felt very disturbed. For a long time, she stole glances at

    Scarlett didn't participate in any more battles for the rest of the day since she already fought with the king. Also, there were no corrections to be made as she had shown her perfect skills.Rick coordinated the rest of the people, pointing out the errors of some, and applauding the others that were good.After a long time, the training came to an end with Rick telling them he'd be assigning them to their various positions the next day. This got them curious and excited.Everyone started dispatching, majority of them glancing and talking about Scarlett. Of course, she was the topic of the day. Even though the King had defeated her, they were still able to notice her powerful fighting skills.Scarlett got her bag and was exiting the field when the hazel-colored girl ran up to her."Hi. I'm Aria." She extended her hand for a handshake.Scarlett was tempted to turn her down, but on a second thought, she changed her mind and received the gesture."Scarlett." She responded."Oh!

    The following morning, Scarlett woke up and got ready for work again. She fixed her lenses and made sure the black dye on her hair wasn't fading out in any part. The last thing she wanted was making people look at her with irritating eyes, like people from her pack did.Done, she exited the house, a lot earlier than the previous day. She intentionally finished early becuase she planned on visiting someone, or somewhere.She took a cab and soon arrived at the witch's store which was by the side of the road. She's visited a lot of stores for this same reason, but some weeks ago, she heard news that this particular witch was very experienced.She got off the cab and proceeded into the store. An intoxicating blend of herbs, flowers and so many potions engulfed the air and filtered into her nostrils the moment she crossed the threshold. She could never get used to this smell.It was a small store. Looking around, she found potions upon potions, so many herbs and leaves mounted on each othe

    Scarlett's breath froze in an instant. She wanted to look away, but something trapped her eyes to him, making it impossible for her to look away.He was shirtless and soaked, droplets glistening on his skin like tiny diamonds. His chiseled abs were exposed, each contour emphasized by the water clinging to his body.The water droplets glistened on his sleek hair, giving it a polished sheen. Scarlett's lips subtly parted, her heart skipped like a stone on water. He looked just like a greek god!"My King!" She finally pulled herself together and lowered her head, trying to steady her heart that threatened to explode in her chest. She couldn't get the image out of her head.Staring at him for a few seconds messed with her head completely. She tugged at her lower lip with her teeth.Kellan had just finished from the pool and decided to come into his study for a quick review. The study was his personal place, and he didn't expect too find anyone there. Imagine his surprise seeing his new as

Let go of me!!" Ray cried, grasping the air with his arms as he tried getting away. The other boys scurried off, yelling and cursing as they did.Scarlett turned a deaf rat to Ray's cries. She plunged her claws deep into the skin around his eyes, scratching him until she came in contact with his naked cheekbones.Blood spurted, splashing all over the floor, and over Scarlett's body. Breathing like a ferocious beast, she hovered over Ray, and gripped him tightly by the neck.He struggled against her, tried fighting her off, but soon realized she was no match for her.

    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
