Scarlett was so excited the rest of the day. Her life was finally getting better, things were falling in place for her.

So many goodnews in one day. Not only did she become the King's personal guard and assistant, she also got a rise in her pay and will be accompanying him on a mission to the south! She'll be travelling with the king!

She giggled and tossed from side to side on the bed. She couldn't recall when last she was this happy. At last, the moon goddess was answering her prayers.

It was evening when her phone started ringing beside her. Checking the caller, she discovered it was her Aria.

Thank goodness! She needed someone to share the news with.

"Hey!" Aria beamed as soon as she picked the call. "What're you doing? I didn't see you today at the field."

"I'm fine, Aria." Scarlett chuckled. "I actually have great news."

"Great news? Bring it on!"

Scarlett smiled and sat up on the bed, like she could see her.

"A lot of goodies happened today, you know? First, I was chosen as the

    Kellan had a busy day, attending to some issues of the pack. By the time he was done, it was evening already and he retired to his room for some rest.However, his wolf was restless and wouldn't let him think straight.As Kellan sat down in his room to eat, the persistent wolf hardly let him concentrate."We need to find her. You've been too non-challant." Ragnor grumbled."I have bene trying. Rick and the others have been searching for her. What am I supposed to do?" Kellan answered tiredly, sharing his thoughts."You shouldn't rely solely on others to find our mates. You should be making an effort as well. We need to find her sooner."Kellan sighed and wagged his head, gulping some wine afterward."I never asked her to leave." He mumbled, a small frown finding its way to his face. "Perhaps, she's not even interested in me. If she was, she'd have never left that morning.""I'm sure she had her reasons." Ragnor growled. "Whatever it was, we can't completely blame her, at least, until

    He held her down to the ground while she waited for him to do something to her. She had stopped moving. She had no chance. Surprisingly he just sniffed her.‘’What is going on?’’. Scarlett muttered within her, not really knowing what was happening at the moment. She growled in anger as the giant wolf was still sniffing her neck. She thought he was going to hurt her, but she had no choice but to remain there as the wolf didn’t let her go.She tried escaping his grip.‘’Let me go!’’ She growled once again, as she put in more force.‘’Stay’’. Ragnor growled back at her.He was too strong for her. Ragnor held her down to the ground so strong that he made sure she was not able to run away.Immediately, Alexa gave up on trying and let out a few soft howls in defeat.Once Ragnor saw that she had given up, he immediately stopped sniffing her neck and released her. He remained there looking at her, totally losing his guard. Alexa saw this great opportunity right away and used it to quickly kno

    Scarlett drew a deep breath as she walked along the hallway of the Pack house, pulling her luggage along with her.It was time for the trip, and the King was already outside with the others.Scarlett had a cranky feeling that something bad might happen at the meeting. It was the biggest meeting of the year, and since every Alpha would be present, she just felt there might be some kind of problem.She was approaching the staircase when she ran into the prince and instantly stopped to greet him as he stood right in front of her, his scent surrounding the place which they both stood.‘’Good day, my prince’’. Scarlett bowed her head in respect, waiting for him to speak up so she could raise her head up back and start leaving.‘’Hello, Scarlett. Good day to you too’’. His deep voice spoke to her. After taking a short pause, she looked up at him, staying utterly shut.‘’I need to get going. I don’t want to keep them all waiting for me’’. She said quietly and respectfully.The last thing she

    It was the next day and time for the meeting. Scarlett, who had woken up a long time ago, was all dressed up and ready. She had prepared faster than every other person and decided to go check up on the king to be certain he didn't need any assistance.She knocked, and his voice ushered her in. Going in, she met him eating. She bowed her head to greet him, after shutting the door when she had entered.‘’Good morning, My King’’. She said with her head bowed.He didn't respond. She lifted her head to see him dipping a fork full of Alfredo pasta into his mouth. Chewing it elegantly, he dropped the cutlery back on the plate, dabbing the napkin against his nice succulent lips.He had a robe on, but Scarlett could see he was wearing something like a polo inside too. He wasn’t completely naked like she thought he would be when she got in.Just like yesterday inside the car, the atmosphere was tense as hell. He still wasn't looking up to her face.‘’Is there a problem? I didn’t send for you’’

    Out of pure anger, Alpha Magnus stood up from his seat, grinding his teeth. For a moment he couldn’t breathe. His mind darkened, his jaws were clenched and his temper flared. A mere woman had the audacity to accuse him of having a hand in her husband’s death.‘’How dare you speak to me in such manner?!!’’. He shouted at the top of his voice, veins forming on his head.Mari remained standing, unmoved by his outpour. She was just as mad as he was.‘’Don’t talk to me like you don’t know what I’m talking about, Magnus’’. Mari flashed, raising her voice to be heard at all corners of the room. She knew she was in the presence of all Alphas and was the only woman present, but she didn’t care.Her head spun. In their midst was an angry woman. She was more than angry, and she didn’t look like she was going to give up seeking justice for her husband’s death anytime soon.Other people were still as quiet as they were at first, trying to wrap their heads around the situation on ground at that mom

    The King finally finished with the rogues around him. Turning around, he Scarlett being held by Negan as he saved her. He watched the way he held and scanned his eyes around her For some reason, he couldn’t stop looking at them.Finally, the battle came to an end. Majority of the rogues were down to the ground, dead, while the rest of them retreated. None of the Alphas were killed - that was a major relief for Kellan.Scarlett ran towards him. Looking into his face, she scrutinized him thoroughly, checking if he was fine.‘’My King! Are you okay?’’. She asked, concerned. She’d hoped, even prayed in fact, that he was fine.‘’I’m fine, as you can see’’. He answered, his voice quite sharp.Scarlett was perplexed at the tone of his voice. Rick came around, checking the King as well.‘’My Prince. Are you all right?" Rick asked Negan who had seemingly appeared from nowhere. They just found him walking towards them.The Alphas began to gather around. They made sure everyone was fine and with

    The necklace felt eerily familiar, resembling the one she had lost in the presence of the white wolf who had come to her rescue that fateful night. Scarlett couldn't tear her gaze away from it.A part of her was tempted to ask the King about the necklace and how it came into his possession, but who was she to question him? She had no right to demand any explanations from the King. He owed her nothing.Scarlett remained rooted in place, her mind consumed with thoughts. The King shifted his attention from the drawer to his table, where several files were neatly arranged.Seated at his study table, the King's eyes fell upon Scarlett, who still stood by the door. He moved the files to one side, preparing himself to address her."Scarlett," he called her name.She straightened up, ready to comply with his request."My King," she responded with precision."You may sit," he gestured towards the other side of the table. Scarlett didn't want to waste any more of his time and quickly walked ove

    Rick sat with the King in his study room. They had been talking for a while. The issue of the rogues was still the topic of the day and they were trying to figure out a way to deal with them once and for all. They had so many problems on hand and the rogues trying to be an urgent one were what they had been trying to solve for hours.‘’Honestly My King, these rogues are extremely dangerous. We defeating them was just a tip of the iceberg. We don’t know what they have planned and when they would strike again. Just like what happened earlier. We were caught unaware.’’ Rick poured out everything on his mind.Kellan bobbed his head.‘’In what ways do you think we could curb or handle them?’’ The King asked once more. He was seeking to get Rick’s opinions."Perhaps, we should mount more guards to be on the lookout for them. And the next time any of them gets caught, they shouldn't be killed. Instead, they'd be brought in for questionings and made to reveal their hideout."‘’True’’ For a mo

Of course she knew she would be getting into a bigger trouble with the king but she never expected him to fire her it was shocking and the way he had said it, he sounded like he meant every single word.She starred at the door on able to move. She was glued to the spot, and could not command her feet into motion.When she finally was able to move, the door opened again, and kellan came back out."What are you still doing here? I thought I told you that you were fired with immediate effect."Go now, packup your things, because you are leaving first thing in the morning. Did you understand me?"Scarlet nodded, trying her best to stop the tears that had gathered in her eyes from falling off her eyelids." I will get going immediately. Once again, forgive me my King. I know I was wrong, I know I've disrespected you in many ways, I have not kept a single of the instruction that you gave to me."please forgive me. I will go get my things, and I will leave

    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

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. He picked up the bottles of she, and put them in the drawer before leaving the room. ******************Scarlett got to the royal market, and was alarmed at the outrageous prize of things. She was ho

    "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. You might be my personal assistant, but there's nothing between us asides from that. You have every right to do whatever you want with your life without any explana

    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
