Scarlet's eyes fluttered open at the sound of rustling steps. She blinked repeatedly, staring at the blank ceiling before sitting up right. Her blurry gaze scanned around her surrounding, a sigh leaving her lips when she realized it wasn't a nightmare as she had hoped. But then again, it all started as bliss before it went wrong. With another sigh, she dropped her feet to the ground and lifted herself. She headed towards the door where the rustling of footsteps continued without a stop. She pushed the door and made her way out, instantly coming face to face with an unexpected guest. "Chris?" The Alpha beamed, his eyes seeming to sparkle with warmth. He placed a comforting hand over Scarlet's shoulder. "You're awake, I was just coming to get you," He announced. "What's going on? Why are you here?" Scarlet ranted with questions. How long had she been asleep for Chris to get to the local so fast? Chris shook his head, bringing his hand down from Scarlet's shoulder. "It's a mess, Sc
Scarlet jolted into consciousness at the stopping sound of an engine. Her eyes fluttered open, sensing movements beside her. she ripped herself away from the fervor while blinking the somnolence off her eyes. She peeked outside the car window and acknowledged they had finally reached the city but not in front of their estate. Scarlet turned to Reid crouching beside her but flinched at the clicking sound of a gun. Her eyes magnified for a moment, noticing the concrete expression modeled on the Alpha's face, the bloodshot and differentiated eyes. Were they ambushing someone already? But they just got back to the city! Scarlet nearly threw her head back, feeling aggravation pushing through her veins. Scarlet's lips split up to enunciate but Reid beat her to it. "Stay in the car!" The fierce Alpha authorized in a desolated tone and got out of the car before Scarlet could oppose, slamming the car door shut behind him. Scarlet immediately turned to her side of the window and inspected as R
Silvester sauntered round the corner, striding into the hospital waiting lobby, where he found Reid parading from one corner to the other, still in his blood-stained clothes, knuckles bruised and hair disarrayed. He waddled towards him, features expressionless."Reid?" He called and the Alpha halted, dark striking eyes locking with the familiar ones of his brother. "I know you have a medical issue but you went too far, Mom is going to die because of you, don't you have enough of killings already?!" He charged, keeping his voice low, not ignoring the fact that he was surrounded by the white, tintless walls of the pack hospital.Reid grimaced, his brain seeming to be disseminating what his brother just asserted. "Mo-m?" His voice wavered, different types of emotions swimming in them, staring confusedly.Silvester sighed in aggravation, ransacking his hand through his head, a vein appeared on his forehead. "You've got to be kidding me?!" He nearly squealed. Why was everything such a mess
The first thing Scarlet saw opening her eyes was the round face of Misty. What a villainy face to arise to!She blinked her eyes repeatedly before pulling herself up, resting her back on the white walls of the hospital room. Scarlet tsked, glowering at the wires attached to her, only the heavens knew how much she scorned hospitals. Werewolves didn't need hospitals."Hey round face, what's going on?" Scarlet strained her voice, staring directly at Misty who sat at the corner on a bench, browsing through her phone, looking up at being called."You just woke up, give it a rest!" Misty rolled her eyes.Scarlet sneered. "How can I slope when the first thing I see is that face of yours, it's macabre, a living nightmare!"Misty's jaw locked, clicking her tongue. "Why do you hate me so much, Omega?"Once again, Scarlet sneered. "You are really as fatuous as you look!" she smiled widely, watching with satisfaction as Misty's jaw dropped. "Well, since you are so clueless, I might as well, fill
"So, when is your mate coming?" Rhett catechized as soon as Hunter footed into their living room, browsing on his phone. The Alpha halted at the sudden and unexpected question and he gazed up from his phone, finding three pairs of eyes staring at him, waiting for his answer."Yeah, Hunter. I've never met this mate of yours. When is she coming?" Kelsi grilled, raising an eyebrow."She will come when she's ready," Came the answer."Damn!" Rhett exclaimed. "With how obsessed she was with you, it's a wonder she stayed away for so long," "She must be special to have gotten Hunter's attention, I could barely have him talk to me," Kelsi pouted her lips."She's one of a kind, I've never met an omega so loud and shameless," Mitchell answered with a chuckle. Hunter shook his head and headed towards the door but halted at the sudden sound of the doorbell. His eyes flickered to the three on the couches."Are you expecting someone?" He wondered, already heading towards the door when the others m
He waved his hand in front of her face, snapping his fingers a couple of times but earning a sharp glare. He smiled. "Mom"Ms. Martin rolled her eyes and averted her gaze away from her oldest son, gawking at the blank wall of the hospital before asking. "Eric's dead, isn't he?"Silvester sighed, "He's badly injured and has fallen into a coma, his left hand is gone," he replied, waiting to see her reaction but he got none, she continued glaring at the wall while her hands clenched tightly on the sheets."And my mate?"Silvester poked his inner cheek. her mate? His bastard of a stepfather, would he be called cruel if he said he was delighted that the bastard was gone? Compared to the others, he took the blow extremely which had divided his skull. Tsk, what a cruel way to die. "He didn't make it" again, he watched her reaction. It wasn't like she married the lunatic because she liked him, love wasn't even in the question. "Are you not going to ask about Reid? " He inquired expectantly bu
"You can't keep me here, Alpha Reid is going to find out you took his mother," Mrs. Martin spat, scowling at the face of Alpha Zinan who dragged a little hand chair and sat in front of her with an amused articulation on his face."I can't believe you deluded everyone, you even had me, Mara,"Mrs. Martin bolted, "What are you talking about, who's Mara?" She implored, testing the waters while Zinan had finally lost his last bit of patience and hauled the blonde wig on her hair, revealing black hair beneath. He grimaced and flung the wig to the corner of the room.He smirked at her appalled expression. "I believe you thought no one would find out you have two identities as a Beta and an Omega, Mara, no wonder I had difficulty finding you. You were busy being Reid's precious mother," he verbalized, the words tasting bitter on his tongue. "The last time I saw you, I thought I told my boys to finish you off, I guess they didn't follow my orders,""What do you want, I already told you, over
"Scarlet, honey. You shouldn't be doing that,"For the nth time, Mrs. Stone approached Scarlet standing behind the counter, attending to a customer."Mom, you are being paranoid, I'm only standing behind a counter," she beamed at the customer, waving to them. she whirled to her mother and gently nudged her on the shoulders. "Go away now, Mom, I'm fine," as soon as she was gone, she swerved to the next customer, a luminous smile on her face. "Hello, what's your order?" She picked up her notepad, ready to take the order and when she finally glanced up, she found a pair of dirty eyes gawking at her. Scarlet froze for a second, watching as the stranger plopped a gun on the counter before her. Scarlet nearly signed. Why couldn't she go a day without the unnecessary drama, not that she minded but she wasn't in the mood to get messy or stain her parent's restaurant? She hissed. "Do you have the license for that, it's very dangerous to carry around, especially in an open place like this," sh
