WRITER'S POV

Lucas clenched his teeth. Standing beside Asher and watching him grasp fondly onto Scarlett’s last belongings like his life depended on it infuriated him greatly.

“You killed her. You monster. You killed her!” The voices echoed accusingly in his head. He vividly recalled the words he had said to Scarlett and felt guilty telling her those words. What if truly his words had pushed her to her death?

Freya’s arrival meant he now had two people to deal with and so he had thought that he just needed to deal with one first which happened to be Scarlett. She seemed more like the danger because Asher loved her. To him, Freya Darkthorn was not a problem. Asher felt nothing for her and she would just be a figure like a rock to him. But he didn't know Scarlett would go this far to honor his request for her to disappear from Asher's life.

“How long do you think she could have been in there?” Asher’s lips quivered, his gaze heavy with sadness darted all over the surface of the water.

  • The Lycan Alpha and his Second Chance Mate    MAKE YOU LOVE ME

    Lucas did not understand the reason why Asher wanted the news of Scarlett’s death to be made public. The more he thought about it, the more suspicious it seemed. On the other hand, as Asher wanted, the news got to Elder Conor and elicited the exact reaction he wanted. Elder Conor was furious. He blamed chief lycan elder for pushing Scarlett to her death and stormed to his house. At the gate, Sila's men refused him entrance. That infuriated him more. While his men got into a fight with Silas' men, he got in.“After accepting my land, he does not wish to see me? Huh!” He yelled in front of the house and demanded Silas Darkthorn to come out. “Tell him to come out and see me!” he continued to scream, calling on Silas to come out and face him. To fulfill his demand, Silas Darkthorn came out and immediately he ordered his guards to strike Conor down. Elder Conor was seized the instant the order left Sila's mouth. However, as the guard raised the sword and was aiming for his eyes. Elder C

  • The Lycan Alpha and his Second Chance Mate    CAMPBELL'S VISIT

    “I have heard of your unending magnanimous heart, chief elder. Accept my greetings,” Alpha Campbell greeted, extending his hand for a shake. Silas Darkthorn regarded him for a second before he accepted his handshake. “You may have your seat,” he pointed to the sofa across from him. Then he asked one of his men to serve them drinks. “Alpha Campbell,” he called when their drink was served. “You are welcome to Howling Moon Pack.”“Thank you, chief,” Alpha Campbell responded excitedly. He had been nervous making this journey. He had heard news of Silas Darkthorn and how he had power more than even the lycan Alpha. His aura told it all. However he had felt welcomed the moment he stepped in. People talked of how powerful and influential he was. No doubt. How could an ordinary elder command such respect and authority? How could an elder own such a number of men and servants? If he has such warriors guarding him, how many did the Alpha have for himself? “What brought you to my house? An Al

  • The Lycan Alpha and his Second Chance Mate    I CAN'T HELP YOU

    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

    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

    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

  • The Lycan Alpha and his Second Chance Mate    MAE DARKTHORN

    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

  • The Lycan Alpha and his Second Chance Mate    WOMAN ENOUGH

    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

    “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

  • The Lycan Alpha and his Second Chance Mate    DESIGNER LADY

    “Get ready. Someone is coming here today to take our measurements,” Freya said to Asher who was focused on the documents before him. Asher wasn't paying attention and it took a few seconds for Freya's words to fully register in his brain. He pushed the document close and looked up. “What did you just say?”“I have booked a designer. She'd design our outfits and she will be here any moment soon.” Freya was in front of the square-shaped mirror in Asher's office and giving her make-up finishing touches. She didn't need a glam look to take measurements for her wedding outfits. However she'd sworn to always appear perfect before Asher. It didn't matter for how long or for what reason and so far she was living up to it. She patted her index finger on her lower lip and smashed her lips together to create a full red lips. Asher scowled. “Designer? Who authorized?”“I spoke to my father–”“Your father is not the Alpha of this Pack nor the leader of this pack!” Before she would finish, Asher

  • The Lycan Alpha and his Second Chance Mate    PAWN

    SCARLETT The instant she walked in, something in me chilled. I recognized her immediately. Asher's wife and Luna to be of the Pack. It would be stupid if I studied everyone else but missed her. She was the arrow Silas Darkthorn was using to pin Asher down after all. There were so many mysteries around her. So much of her life before she left the pack was wiped off. Of course, it had to be no one else but Silas Darkthorn's handwork. Old geezer tried really hard to keep her record clean and eliminate any suspicions regarding the fact they weren't related at all. Where she lived prior to returning was another mystery I couldn't uncover. As I saw her walk in, I realized that perhaps it was finally time. Time to meet the pawn in this game. An important pawn. I had waited for her to show up since the day I opened. Had even chirped in to some of the younger women stylishly hoping the news would reach her someday. Had no idea it would take this short while. Few times that I snuck in to wat

  • The Lycan Alpha and his Second Chance Mate    UNKNOWN ALLY

    Asher received another letter. He stared long and hard at it. Now he was really curious where these letters were coming from. Damian and Lucas thought it was an ally of his that preferred to stay unknown. But he couldn't understand it. Why was this person helping him? He'd thought of every single possibility of it turning out to be someone he knew or had encountered but that didn't make sense either. If it wasn't Damian or Lucas, then he definitely didn't know who it was. A name suddenly occurred to him. “Samuel Wolfe? This could be him. He has a grudge on Silas,” he muttered skimming through the letters again. “No way. I doubt it. He refused your visit the other time,” Damain said. Asher shrugged. Damian was right. Samuel Wolfe had refused his visit once he heard he wanted his help to take down Silas Darkthorn. He didn't blame him. Who'd want to go head to head against Silas after suffering what Samuel had suffered. It wasn't just about losing to Silas Darkthorn, he had lost his

    SCARLETT’S POV “Did she tell you she will be here today?” one of the women asked impatiently. They were waiting for Mae Darkthorn and it had been over thirty minutes already. “Yes. You know she never goes back on her words.” the other one assured. Almost at the same time, Mae Darkthorn stormed in.“Madam Chief, is there any problem? You don't look so well,” the woman expressed concern as they arranged her a seat and relieved her of her handbag. They gathered around her and begged her to tell them who had upset her so they'd fight for her. “The puppet Alpha is challenging my husband,” Mae started, fuming. My ears stood. I was sitting on the sewing machine adjacent to where they were. “Asher did? Isn't he afraid of death?” “How dare he challenge the chief elder?”“He is only a puppet!”The women sneered. It was an unbelievable sight to behold. One that would make anyone gather a lump of saliva and spit out. If an outsider was there, one that knew absolutely nothing about the id

    Silas was very furious after his meeting with Asher. He could not believe what he'd sat through. He could not believe the words that had come out of Asher’s mouth. The worse was those words were directed at him. Saying he was maddened was probably an understatement. His entire body vibrated with rage. He wanted to kill Asher immediately. But even with his authority, he knew killing an Alpha openly was going to bring nothing but his own downfall. He stopped on the walkway abruptly as a thought flashed before him. Asher knew Campbell was going to be there that night. How? Had Campbell tried to play him? “No…” He shook his head. If Campbell had tried to play him, then Asher wouldn't have captured him and he wouldn't have tortured him to get the truth out of him. Was it someone else? Who could it be?He shrugged and kept walking. Soon he arrived were his car was and the door held open.He may have been disrespected in this meeting but he took solace in the fact that he got to see Ash

  • The Lycan Alpha and his Second Chance Mate    RISKY CHALLENGE

    “You must meet him this time. You can't keep avoiding a meeting with him,” Ethan said to Asher. They just got notified of Silas Darkthorn impromptu visit demanding to meet Asher privately. “I disagree. He doesn't have to meet him. Silas will only try to rile him up,” Lucas countered. Asher huffed out air. He stroked his chin. Then he leapt up after a moment. “Take him to the meeting room.”“Let him in?” Lucas questioned wide-eyed. He still didn't believe why Asher wanted to risk this. Asher shot him a look and he comported. “I will speak with him alone. You both stay behind,” Asher told them and advanced to the meeting room. “My Alpha, you must feel troubled,” Silas began slowly after the two had settled into their seats in the meeting room. He picked his words one after the other, his eyes watchful of every reaction Asher should make. “A man you captured suddenly is found dead in your prison. It must be a cause of concern for you. However, my Alpha, I wonder if I have been mista

  • The Lycan Alpha and his Second Chance Mate    LAST CHANCE

    “Is everything alright now?” one of the elders that had gathered for a meeting at Silas Darkthorn’s house asked. “Of course! Alpha Campbell is dead and his sons arrested. What else is remaining?” Another elder replied bubbly. He was one of the elders that had held a secret meeting without Silas on whether they should cut Silas off and side with Asher or not. Seeing Silas Darkthorn show his power once more settled that and saved him making that difficult decision. “But Asher is biting more than he can chew,” he sighed. “How shocked they must have been to receive the news.”“What news?” the first elder asked, leaning forward in curiosity. The Second Elder looked at him and almost asked if he had been living in a hole the entire time. “You know how the Alphaship is passed onto the Beta after an Alpha commits a crime and dies and he has no son available to take his place?”First elder nodded, his ears widening. “It won't be so in this case. Apparently Asher sent a letter to Beta Claud

  • The Lycan Alpha and his Second Chance Mate    WRONG PERSON

    Freya thought a lot about it. The woman had said she should use it with caution and had mentioned that things could go wrong on the wrong use. She felt her pocket again. The small bulge was still there. Since she came back from the hill, she'd been going around with it waiting for the right time. It was almost difficult to get Asher alone. She needed this to be perfect. Once this was done, she'd live happily with him. She could even help him get rid of Silas Darkthorn if he wished. “Where's my husband?” she asked a maid. “Ma'am, he is in his chamber.”“Ma'am?!” She landed the maid a resounding slap. “Repeat your answer.”“He is in his chamber, my luna.”“Rubbish.” She hissed and walked away. One time when she came newly, she had overheard some maid servants mocking her for calling Asher her husband when they were yet to have a proper Pack wedding. They said she was trying too hard and that Asher would never fall for someone like her. They said she wasn’t fit to be Luna. She heard

  • The Lycan Alpha and his Second Chance Mate    BETA AND DAUGHTER

    SILVER FANG PACK “Dad, shouldn't we do something about it?” Rose asked her father, Beta Claudio as she joined him in the sitting room. “Do what exactly?” Beta Claudio questioned. He was looking at the picture frame he took with Alpha Campbell during their early days when they became Alpha and Beta. They'd sworn to protect the Pack before anything else. “Dad! Our Alpha is captured and his sons too and you are the Beta. Shouldn't you do something about it?” Not like she cared but not being sure if and when they would come back or not was a concern. His father's gaze left the picture frame and fell on her. He knew his daughter, like the palm of his hands and very much knew she didn't care about Alpha Campbell and his sons as much as he didn't care. “Daughter,” he called. That was what he usually called her anytime he wanted to say something important or deep. “That boy, are you still seeing him?”Rose blinked. But quickly hid her surprise. “What boy, Dad?” Beta Claudio chuckled.
