The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 62: A Friendly Talk
***Scarlett***"I thought seeing you will take forever." Lois ran over to hug me. "I'm glad you're okay. I've been looking forward to seeing you." "I know dear." She smiled and pointed at Bryan. "He didn’t want to take me to you unless it was the other way round."I smiled. "You know he has his reasons." "I wouldn't allow you to meet her where she's currently staying, Lois. We've spoken about this. It's for her own safety. If you guys want to talk, you can make a video call. If you guys want to Smeeth physically then you'll come here. It's as simple as that." Lois glared at him. "This isn't fair on us, Bryan.""I don't care what you want Lois. It's better to be safe than sorry." "He's right, Lois.""You guys have only twenty minutes left. It's better to say whatever you've got to say." Bryan made a funny face before turning his back at us. "Hope you're living comfortably. Is he treating well? Hope he isn't mean?" "No. He isn't.""You know I'm hearing you guys right?" Bryan mut
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 63: Rage
***Bryan*** Just as expected. Evans came running to the Mo territory. He was angry to discover what had been done behind his back. "Bryan! Where are you? You piece of shit." He yelled from his vehicle. He was so angry that he began pacing around. He came along with two other trucks. Each carrying his loyalists. Max turned to me. "You were right. You made him come to you." I smiled. "Right where I want him to be. Let's go meet him." Everyone at the packhouse was out to see Evans yelling and kicking dirt. They might be wondering what had made him so mad. "Why are you here shouting like a mad man?" I appeared before him. He lunged at me and struck me but I was quick to block him. "Don't even try it. Only a foolish Alpha wouldn't think twice before running into another alpha's territory just so you can act as a madman. Look around you. You are already out numbered." He looked around and growled. "You went and bought my land." "It's my land now. Not yours. Mr Grant
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 64: My Own Rules
***Bryan***"Your pack is blind. If only they knew who you were twelve years ago?" Evans growled. Alpha Westby faltered but was quick to maintain control of the conversation. "If I were you, I'll leave now that I still have my head on my neck. My pack could easily kill you now. It would start a pack war but i think it's worth it if an asshole like you was to be killed. " Alpha Westby howled. Our pack rounded up behind him. Evans saw the threat. He knew what his stupidity would cause him if he tried anything stupid." He began to back away with his people. "Make sure you don't step your feet on my land." I snarled at him. Evans and his people got in their trucks and drove off. "The little he got here today will show him we are not a silent pack anymore?" A feminine voice threatened. Ingrid still hadn't left my side. "Silent pack. Where did you hear that from?""That's our pack's second name in the past. We were a pack that always minded our business. We maintained the peace with
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 65: The Good Neighbor
***Scarlett***Bryan hasn't been back to the house since the night we got to meet Lois at the pack. I missed him and I felt lonely living all alone in this house. To stay alive and out of sight, this is the price I have to pay. I was done preparing breakfast for myself. I ate up and began to clean up the house. The trash bin in the kitchen was filled up. I thought about leaving it until Bryan returns. But the kitchen would look messy if I did. I just have to step out and throw the dirt into the large trash bin outside. I emptied the kitchen trash bin into the larger one. I have never viewed this neighborhood up close until now. "Do you live here?" The deep voice startled me. I jumped away, then turned around to see a tall guy in sweatpants and a vest watching me. He had airpods on and looked like he was going for a run or jog. "Excuse me! Who are you?" I asked.He smiled, revealing how attractive his face was. "I'm sorry. I'm new here." He walked up to me. "My name is James.
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 66: Ruining His Plan (I)
***Bryan*** This guy I just saw at my house with Scarlett when I drove in made me nervous. By the time I sniffed the air the third or forth time. I knew he was a lone wolf. He didn't have a pack. He looked at me, then back at Scarlett. "Don't hesitate to scream for help if you need me?" He smiled at her and left. I almost punched his face. Was he crazy? Did he see me as a threat to Scarlett to tell her that? "Huh. This is unbelievable." I scowled, my hands clenched. "I can see that guys do come over when I'm not around." "It's not what you think, Bryan. That's not what it looked like." "I'm not blind." "James came to fix my light. He said he's the new neighbor," I blurted. "James?" I asked in shock. "You even know his name. Why did you have to open the door for him when you don't even know if he's truly your neighbor? No one is supposed to know you're alive remember" "I thought it was you when I heard the knock. I was too excited to even ask who it was before I
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 67: Ruining His Plan (II)
***Bryan*** Evans frowned. "I don't understand how a butler like you is here playing the games top dogs play." "Well that's because I'm a top dog who likes to explore the world. Staying off the grid and disguising myself as a butler is fun. You should try it sometime.." He raised his middle finger at me. It was a hilarious way of him showing me the fuck you sign instead of saying it in words. I smiled and whispered. "Fuck you too." So low that I wouldn't give myself a bad impression on my first day here if anyone was to hear me. The meeting started shortly after everyone was present. After thirty minutes of boring talks, we got down to the real business. The president, Mason Kurt, gave a short detail of what we should be expecting. "With the unfortunate passing of Mrs Scarlett Anderson, her husband Evans Foss would like to sell off the shares. So I think this will be the best time for those interested in getting more shares in this company to do so. Especially our new
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 68: Sexual Tension (I)
***Bryan*** Max made me feel guilty again. I probably would have been with Scarlett by now. But Max's warning kept me grounded. My mind was beginning to play games on me. I was having images of Scarlett being all nice to that James guy. Could this be jealousy? I doubt it. I don't love Scarlett. What I have for her is a desire I've never had for anyone before. She matches my energy perfectly. Even when I found out she was Debby, that feeling remained. I was thankful for what Debby did for me all those years, I made a promise to her that I'll come look for her when I get back. I realized after a few months of searching for Debby, that I was only grateful to her and wanted to find her again to thank her. What I must have seen as love as a boy was just appreciation for her kindness. The way I feel for Scarlett hasn't changed even after finding out she's Debby. When she said she was going to accept my decision and not complain. I expected that she was just being unnatural. Doesn'
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 69: Sexual Tension (II)
***Scarlett*** Bryan pulled over in the driveway. I was watching a programme on TV, when I heard the sound of his car. I know we didn't end on a goodnote last time he was here but I really missed him. He knocked on the door before I could open it. He was impatient with his knock. He banged harder on the door. "I'm coming, Bryan. Do you want to break the door down?" I unlocked the door and Bryan stormed in. He pushed the door close and locked it. He clenched his hands, his breathing fast. He shut his eyes. "I'm trying to control it," he whispered. "What's going on? Are you okay" I asked. I touched him lightly. His eyes opened and a reddish amber glow stared back at me. I think I shouldn't have touched him. I stepped back from him but It was too late for me. He grabbed my arm. And pulled me close, taking my lips with a powerful need. I moaned at the feel of his calloused hand on my neck. I sniffed a weird scent on him. I froze. He broke the kiss and carried me to t

The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 130: Epilogue
***Scarlett***The hall had turned into chaos. Alpha Westby wasn't the gentle man he appeared to be in front of his pack. His patience was running out as he couldn't deal with his daughter's defiance any longer. "No, father. Please don't push me." "Why don't you want to listen to her?" Bryan asked , his tone firm. "She's right about how I don't have feelings for her. I love Scarlett." "You kids think you know better than your elders or parents." He pulled ingrid towards him. "Love isn't everything. Some things are not as they seem." "Father!" Ingris yelled in pain, holding her arms. "I'm not going to marry Bryan.""You must!""I won't. You were there that night." Ingrid faced her father with so much defiance in her eyes. Alpha Westby's eyes flickered. "What are you talking about?" "You know what you did to Bryan's pack. You and the Alpha of the Foss and the Anderson pack planned on wiping out the Haaland." My heart pounded in my chest. I couldn't believe what Ingrid was saying
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 129: Wedding Day Saga
***Scarlett***I avoided the front seat like a plague. I would have preferred to sit in the back but I would struggle to keep up with the view because of my height. I found a perfect spot in the middle. In no time the hall was filled and everyone had taken their seats. Bryan looks dashing and handsome just as I had imagined he would turn out to be. Soon after Alpha Westby walked in with his daughter, the bride. She was holding onto him and smiling but I couldn't be deceived by her smile because she was forcing it. She stood in front of Bryan who returned a smile. Bryan and Ingrid's wedding was supposed to be a joyous occasion. But it wasn't so because Ingrid broke down in tears, her body shuddering uncontrollably. It was shocking to see but the greatest shock was when she didn't return the vow and rejected Bryan. The murmurings filled the room. I wondered why Ingrid did what she did? Luckily, Adam was nice to sit next to me. "What's going on?" I whispered to Adam who looked as
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 128: Moving Ahead
***Scarlett***In silence, I watched every member of my pack from the balcony. It's been a very long time since I saw them happy. My pack had insisted that we hold a little celebration for defeating the Foss pack. I went with their suggestion and I'm glad they are all rejoicing. I couldn't forget about the photo I had seen. I knew if Bryan was close or if I were to see him, things would be much easier. He would be able to identify if he was related to the unknown man in the picture. As I continued watching, my mind drifted towards the thoughts of Alpha Westby. Something in me didn't trust that man, not after what he said to me when he came to meet me at the packhouse I was staying with James. His words were so harsh that I knew he wasn't bluffing. He didn't want me in Bryan's life and he wasn't going to tolerate seeing us together. I am a threat to his daughter's love life. I think Alpha Westby isn't the good man he pretends to be. That was the conclusion I got that day he came
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 127: An Unhappy Groom
***Bryan***If only I could have what my heart desires, I would want nothing more than to spend the rest of my life with the woman I love. At first all I ever cared about was toa avenge the death of my pack. After meeting Scarlett everything changed. All that mattered to me was her. It's not surprising that Fate brought us together again after our path once crossed when we were much younger. Now, I'm stuck. Without Scarlett, I'm lost. In less than twenty-four hours, I'll be married to Ingrid. Will be referred to as her husband and as the alpha to the Mo pack. There's nothing much I can do about my situation. Holding onto some of the happy memories with Scarlett was giving me a form of peace. Even while I sat alone thinking of how tomorrow would turn out, I can't help but think about how Scarlett was coping. I heard she's been discharged and is doing great. Knowing she's alive after what Event did is enough to be grateful. "What are you doing?" Max asked, his eyes scanning
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 126: The Battle
***Scarlett***Just as I feared, Holm and the men loyal to Evans began to attack my pack. We had selected an Alpha, Bill, who everyone had agreed to support as the leader of the pack. Sterling never wanted to contest for the Alpha position in the first place, although I would have loved it if he did. He wanted to remain the pack's beta. Holms' attacks had become frequent, so we had to make a plan. One containing the element of surprise. We made a plan and everyone agreed with it. We are to attack the Foss pack before dawn tomorrow. I'm sure they wouldn't be expecting it. The time came for us to storm into the Foss pack house. Bill led us and we carried out our plan successfully. Even though we surprised the Foss with our attack, the battle between our pack was fierce. In the end, my pack emerged victorious. There were a lot of casualties and injured people. Amongst them was Holm who we agreed to take back with us as our captive. I understood that if we were to kill Holm, then muc
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 125: Set for the Battle
***Scarlett***My wound felt tender even though it had almost healed. The hospital had ordered that I should be discharged because I was feeling much better. Sterling greeted me when I set foot into the pack house. So did other of the pack members who were awaiting my return. A few lamented how they had feared for my life when they heard that Evans had kidnapped me and shot me. I was sure they didn't get the whole story because no one was right about what transpired. "We're glad to have you back," Sterling said with a smile. "Although we're still worried because Evans is out there. We don't know what to expect." I nodded, scanning all the faces of those who were waiting to hear me speak out. "We can't let our guards down. Evans is dangerous as long as he is alive. We need to be very vigilant." Sterling nodded in agreement. "What do you suggest we do now? We are yet to have an Alpha. As the daughter of the former Alpha and an Alpha female of our pack we need to hear what your plan
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 124: Painful Goodbye
***Scarlett*** Bryan couldn't let go of my hands. "I want you to promise me something," he whispered, his eyes locked with mine, piercing through them as I tried hard not to cry. I nodded, short of words. I was eager to hear what he wanted to say. My heart pounded heavily. My chest is heavy from anticipation. "Scarlett, my love, if I could choose again in the next life, know that I would choose you," he exhaled deeply. "I want you to promise me that whatever life time we find ourselves, we will find each other again." I whined out of pain. "I understand. I hope we do find each other again. I promise to find you." He leaned down and kissed my forehead, then looked into my eyes again. "Fate has bound me to Alpha Westy. I owe him my life. It's not easy to disobey him. Marrying Ingrid is my way of being grateful to him." "Shh…I understood," I placed a finger on his lips to silence him. "You don't need to say much. I know you're in a tight spot. It's already tough on you
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 123: The Devil Doesn't Give Up
***Scarlett*** I was in a state of panic as I watched Bryan try to save me first. Bryan must have followed his heart because Ingrid was so mad. I was helpless and bound to the chair, but Evans released me wanting us to play the next level of the game. He suddenly pointed the gun at Ingrid. Evans was determined. He wasn't bluffing. I was already angry that Bryan had chosen to save me instead of Ingrid. But seeing the poor lady die because of us was something I couldn't stand and watch. Bryan may not love her but I knew for sure that Ingrid's death was going to ruin him. Bryan was going to be the Mo pack's enemy. I trembled at the thought of Ingrid dying here. This is bad. If Ingrid ends up dead, then that means a bigger problem for Bryan. Alpha Westby might never forgive him. All this started because of me. If there was anyone who had to die, it should be me. I failed at killing Evans. Instead of dying in the fire, I ended up creating a monster. A devil who doesn't give up. Eva
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 122: The Women in His Life
***Bryan*** I couldn't breathe for a moment as I stared at the camera on my phone, my mind reeling with horror. Evans' twisted face leered back at me, his burned and scarred skin making him look like a beast from hell. "Come alone, Bryan," he sneered. "If you want to save either of them." He had said to me laughing evilly. My heart raced as I thought of Scarlett and Ingrid, both of them in Evans' custody. I found myself screaming inside my head. Why can't he just die? Scarlett was so sure that he died in the fire. what is this now? Evans had warned me not to come along with anyone. I promise him I wasn't going to bring anyone with me. I arrived at the destination, my heart pounding in my chest. The first thing I noticed was both Ingrid and Scarlett's scent. I heard a scream come from the building. I was sure he was torturing one of them. This sends me into a frenzy and I growled in anger pushing the door down with my weight. As I entered the dark room, I was taken aback by
