ADONIS’s POV.

I sprang up from the bed I was lying on, I could feel it in my guts that scarlet was in trouble.I wasn’t sure how long I have been unconscious but I knew it was long enough for her to get worried and even get in danger.

With a slight groan, I pulled my body off the bed but a hand stopped me and Ashely’s face came into view.

“You are not fine, Adonis” he said, “you should take some more rest”

“Where is my woman?” I asked him, anger seething through my veins.

“I told her to go back to the hotel, I sent your lookalike to her”

“I am going to meet her”

The pain was still lingering in my chest but I couldn’t let go of the feeling in my head, I knew she was not safe.

“She will be fine, Adonis” he said again, “you might collapse if you go to meet her now”

“And who are you to stop me?” My eyes darkened and my wolf growled inside of me.

Pushing his hand away, I stood up and made my way out of the room. Luckily we were not far from the hotel and when I entered our room, I found h

But why would his name mean that? Why would his parents even name him something like that?Adonis swallowed hard and began to walk towards the hotel again. He didn’t say anything when we entered the room and he gently laid me on the bed. Panic and fear was written all over his face, I have never seen him so shaken like this before and how the hell did he injure Ashely like that?Just before we could say anything to each other again, the door pushed open and Ashley sauntered in alongside another man.“Doctor, please check on her” Adonis intoned, “I think she broke her arm”The man sat near me on the bed while Adonis moved closer to the window, I could see him constantly clutching onto his chest.

    ADONIS’s POV.She looked so beautiful sleeping so soundly with my hands wrapped around her waist, those peaceful breaths, those gentle flutters of her eyelashes and it felt like the peace which has eluded me for thousands of years has finally come to stay.I wanted to hold her in my arms forever and love her but I knew I was only wishing. Sooner or later, she would find out about everything and I would have to let her go. I mean, who would want to stay with her murderer as a lover? I knew it was from her past life but there was a reason why she reincarnated as Scarlett, to hurt me. The moon goddess sure knows how to toy with me. As a mother, she didn’t even hesitate to cast me upon the face of the earth to suffer for all eternity and not only that, she bestowed me with a gift that she knew I would not be able to keep.The beeping of my phone jolted me out of my thoughts and I answered when I saw Ashely’s name pop up on the screen.“Tell me”“I am waiting by the car, Adonis.

He was looking at me like I was something interesting and he didn’t want to miss any chance in knowing what I was.“I waited for a while last night until you showed up” i decided to tell him.“I am sorry baby, the call took longer than I expected”“Yeah?”“Hmm” I smiled at him again, “okay, so what’s for today? It’s a holiday today, no classes so what have you planned for us? The last time I did, you literally wanted to cry because you were n

    SCARLET’s POV.Sipping on my juice gently, I looked up to see Ashely walking towards me. He was dressed in a casual pair of pants and a t- shirt. He really is huge, I can see his chest pushing against his shirt, how come he always hid those under suits he always wore.“You are here”“Hmm” he nodded and lowered himself on the chair, “why did you call me? You sounded so urgent. Is Adonis fine?”“Want a drink?”“Look scarlet,” he continued, “I only came here because you asked, so tell me why you called. I am really not in the mood to have something to drink”“Hmmm” I sipped on my drink again trying to calm my mind. I wasn’t sure how to start this discussion with him.Luckily I got the chance when Adonis said he had a video meeting which would take a while and I was not about to waste it, I would be damned if I let it go.“Mr Ashely” I returned my focus to him again, “I read the book” I finally told him, I finally made up my mind, “the book about the cursed lycan?”I saw him shift uneasil

And weren’t you hurt? You don’t look hurt”“You ask a lot of questions, princess” he pulled his body from the couch and began to walk towards me. He was not wearing his necklace, something he hardly takes off.“Where is your necklace?”“It must have fallen down when I was bringing you home”Something was off about him, the Adonis I knew would never keep his hands away from me.

How did he even get these pictures of me?“Happy birthday, Scarlett,” Maria whispered into my ear, squealing in excitement.It was past noon but the way the hall was decorated, it felt like an evening event and I loved every bit of it.As soon as I entered, the spotlight immediately fell on me and I came to a halt as all eyes turned to me.The hall was not filled to capacity but it was filled with important people, most of whom I know are affiliated with Adonis in one way or the other.A soft rhythm started playing from the piano and then I saw him, walking towards me looking so dapper in that shade of blue.

He looked shocked and surprised, every emotion that one could actually think of while Adonis kept a stoic face. He was upset, really upset and I have been trying to talk to him but he hasn't said a word to me since I told him about what I read.They both couldn’t find it in the diary which kind of made me wonder if it was kind of a classified thing for me. How could they not see it when I could?“So you are saying you tried this out based off of something you wanted to experiment? Are you fucking kidding me right now?”“But here is he” I said to them, “nothing happened, at least we know he still has two more times where he won’t be able to transform”“You put your life on the fucking line” Ashely half yelled, “what if you read wrong and you failed”“But I didn…“You know what?” Adonis finally spoke, his tone curt, “I have been away from the office for too long, i should probably going in today”
