Scarlett Davis had her life all beautifully planned out until the day she saw her boyfriend of ten years kissing another girl. Heartbroken, she dashed off. One thing led to another and she ended up having a one night stand with a fine stranger she later found out to be the infamous puppet Lycan Alpha.

Get the charm or visit her fake father first. But she knew how Silas Darkthorn behaved. He was always hungry for more power and more control. As he called her to come home, he was expecting her to show up as soon as possible. He didn’t care if she was doing something important or not. She could already sense why he wanted to see her. He may be his fake father now but she hated seeing him. To her, he was just a means to get to Asher. A means to her dreams. But still, she knew she had to tolerate him somehow and it made her stomach churn each time she was reminded of that fact. She sighed wondering how the other members of his family would look at her this time around. The first time Silas has brought her into his home. His wives never breathed a word to Silas but ins
“Alpha Campbell was arrested early this morning! This is unbelievable!” One of the elders expressed shock. The elders were gathered in Silas Darkthorn's house as soon as the news of Alpha Campbell's arrest spread. “Asher has no fear!”“When did he grow such balls?”They shook their heads and their shoulders rose up and down. “I am afraid. No one knows what he is planning anymore. Especially to us. You know how much he has been wanting to get rid of us,” one of the elders said and sighed. At that moment he regretted being in Silas Darkthorn's gang. If only he saw this coming, he should have quickly switched sides.“Afraid?!” Another elder snapped at him with fiery eyes. “We are his elders and he will not act rash towards us!”Silas Darkthorn sat in deep silence. He neither ordered nor contributed to what the elders were saying. After a while he stood up from his seat and walked into his private chamber. None of the elders questioned where he was going or why he was silent. That day
“What!?” Alpha Campbell blurted, sitting up. “Chief’s orders.”He shot up. “Wait wait… this may be his orders but this is clearly impossible. The men are not ready. They just started training two weeks ago!”“I'm only but a messenger.”“Damnit!” Campbell growled when the man from Howling left. He clenched and unclenched. Kicked the sofa and fisted. He'd been drawn to the edge yet again by Silas Darkthorn. First he made him start an illegal training now he wanted them to fight when they were far from ready. “Dad.” Noah came in. “Was this the big picture you have in mind?”Alpha Campbell stopped pacing and glared at his son. “Don't look at me like that! I'm doing this for us, for you and your brother! You should be grateful, you ungrateful jerk!”“Me and my brother?” Noah shook his head. “Father, you can't trust that man. He may be a powerful man but men like him are snakes. I have done a lot of bad things but this is evil, Dad.”“If you will not do as Father says then stay here and b
“My Alpha, an elder from Howling Moon Pack, is here to see you.”Alpha Campbell’s face creased. What was an elder of Howling Moon coming to his house for? His frown deepened. He'd just sent in more werewolf ladies, what else did he want from him? “Which of the elders?” He asked his man. “Elder Silas Darkthorn.”Immediately he sprung up in his seat. “Silas Darkthorn?” He muttered as he hurried over to the window and from there he peeped. Truly Silas Darkthorn was in the frontage of his house.“Let him in! Let him in immediately and have the maids prepare the best dishes and bring the best drinks!” He ordered the guard before he hastily began to change into his official outfit. A few minutes later he strode into his meeting room where Silas Darkthorn was already in. “Chief elder!” Campbell hailed. “When I heard you were in my house, my amazement knew no bounds.”Silas Darkthorn managed a tight smile. He rarely smiled. Whenever he eventually ever did, it was a tight one. But that al
Asher stood behind the window in his office. The blinds rolled all the way up. Although his eyes looked but they took no notice of what was happening. His mind had strayed away. He released a sigh and allowed the memories to overpower him, the thought of Scarlett the center of it. A year ago, Scarlett was declared dead. But not for him. He saw the signs that she was still alive. He knew she was alive. That she had faked her own death.But it had been over a year already. A year he hadn't seen her face again. Over a year and he still couldn't figure out why she did what she did, if she was still alive and if she ever thought of him. “You have a letter, my Alpha.” A guard announced and he was jolted back to the moment. Without changing his position, he stretched his hand and the letter was placed in it. As he held the letter in his palms, he did not open it immediately. There was no excitement or urge to see what was inside of it. What complaints and curse was he going to read this
SCARLETTWith her nose crunched, the woman snatched the fabric from Eli's hand, looked up at me and said, “I am the first wife of the most powerful man in this Pack.”Then, I thought of it. Of all prominent mens’ wives, there was one I never saw her picture no matter how hard I looked. Silas Darkthorn's first wife. “You know the most powerful man in this Pack?” She added, glancing at me cockily. “Ma'am?”“You don't know?” Her eyes flew wide. Honestly, I was annoyed. I already knew which man she was about to mention. She publicly called her husband the most powerful man in the Pack when he wasn't the Lycan Alpha. Throwing the ill feeling aside, I feigned shock. “Wow! You are the chief elder's wife, ma'am?” I swore her shoulder pad increased a notch. “His first and real wife,” she explained. She may not have spoken the words out loud but her face said something about the others being fake. Mae Darkthorn. Silas Darkthorn's first wife. People referred to her as Madam Chief. She had
ONE YEAR LATER.“That shouldn't be there!” I yelled at Eli, one of my workers. Eli flashed an apologetic smile and began to push the plosh sofa away. I was intending to use it to rest in between long working hours. I pointed her where I would prefer it to be. Samuel Wolfe had forced me to take a worker because he believed the workload I would be getting would be much. After several searches and brief interviews, I finally settled for Eli. So far Eli had proven to merit it. She worked hard, learned easily and was tight-lipped. I tested her on this. It was the opening day and we were still arranging the shop. There was so much to do with very little time remaining. Soon people would start trooping in and the shop was far from being set. I hoped. Oh shit. I groaned. I should have listened to elder Samuel Wolfe. He told me not to rush but it was already long overdue. For one year, one whole year, I had locked myself in training hard and learning fashion. I couldn't wait to start my rev
SCARLETT “Leave my house. I cannot help you,” Samuel Wolfe said and started to head in. “I am dead!” I burst out. It was something I had said thoughtlessly but it worked. Samuel Wolfe stopped in his tracks. He looked at me like I had lost my mind. “You are a ghost then?”“Ghost?” I blinked in confusion. Oh right I just said I am dead.” I couldn't help not smiling. That had really gotten his attention. “Please if you can listen to me I will explain everything.” He looked at me a while longer. His expression softened and he returned into the center of the room. “What is your story?”“I–”“Sit down.” “Oh…Thank you.” I settled into the cushion across the one he sat. “Actually, the truth is Alpha Asher did not send me to you,” I confessed. “I only wanted to get your attention.”He didn't react and instead he said, “I am aware.”My brow cocked. “Did you ask him?”“No. Because he has guards, a Beta and a Gamma to send on such errands.”“What if he wanted it to be a secret?” I opened my
SCARLETT Samuel Wolfe had already refused my visit request two times now. It made me wonder if my findings were inaccurate. As much as I remember, what I had gathered about him pointed to the fact that he wanted revenge against Silas Darkthorn. Why then had he been refusing to meet even after I added that I would help him get his revenge against him. I wasn't going to keep waiting as I decided to meet him physically by all means possible. “I'm here to see elder Samuel Wolfe,” I told the man manning Samuel Wolfe’s gate. The unfriendly man looked me head to toe with a wrinkled face. “And who are you to ask for the elder?” I was expecting that. “I'm from Alpha Asher. Alpha Asher sent me.” His face wrinkled further as his eyes seized me. I imagined him thinking how could this nobody be from Alpha Asher and he didn't make any effort whatsoever to hide it. I could literally hear it very loud from his face. “Why would the Alpha send you to my boss?” “Do you want to get fir
“Oh, I'm sorry, Scarlett, I don't think you should go up there right now.”Scarlett Davis came to an abrupt halt at the foot of the stairs. A frown creased across her forehead as she casted a confusing look at her boyfriend’s sister, Saddy Campbell. Saddy was almost like a sister and heck she loved her but wasn't up for her games that moment. “Why? I have to see my boyfriend, your brother. Noah is up there, isn't he?” She looked past Saddy up the stairs. Legs itched her. She couldn't wait. Saddy lashes blinked but she said no words. Scarlett drew in a deep breath. Her patience was growing thin by the second. She tried to sidestep Saddy but Saddy was quick to stand in her way again. Another exasperated sigh. “What is wrong, Saddy? You need to get out of the way now. I can't keep Noah waiting.”“I don't think Noah wants to see you now, Scarlett,” Saddy blurted. Her lips tightened into a thin line. Scarlett’s eyes pinched. Saddy was always like this when she wanted something. “Ok...
