*Author's POV*"Are you okay babe? Are you sure you're fine? You're not sick or anything are you?" Xavier asked, this new behavior was so strange to him and he couldn't tell where all this was coming from.But unknown to him, Scarlett found his words offensive.She angrily stood up, glaring daggers at him."You're just so ungrateful Xavier De Vil!" She spat."What!" Xavier said in utter shock."Yes! You heard me right! I only asked you for just a small thing, just a small favor and you're calling me sick!" She yelled."Scar—""Enough!" She angrily interrupted."I don't want to hear anything you have to say, all you care about is getting between my legs, you don't even love me, I only asked you to cook for me and you yelled at me!" Her lips were trembling and she looks like she was at the verge of tears.Shocked was an understatement, Xavier was confused as hell, he was beginning to think that someone must have cast a spell on Scarlett, she's never behaved this way before, her behavior
*Author's POV*"What's wrong?" Xavier asked as he went to her.He patted her back while Scarlett took some time to catch her breath.When she was okay, she stood up and wiped her lips."What happened babe? Are you sick? Should I get the doctor?" Xavier asked worriedly, Scarlett shook her head."You don't have to do that, I'm fine, it just's the food you prepared."Xavier frowned. "What about it?""I don't want it anymore, it smells awful, in fact, the smell made me nauseous." "Are you being serious right now?" Xavier asked in disbelief.Scarlett didn't have much strength to talk, so she just ignored him and went to get her toothbrush, she applied some paste on it and brushed her teeth.Xavier kept on looking at her in disbelief.When Scarlett was done, she simply went to lie on the bed.Xavier went to meet her and he couldn't help but to ask what has gotten into her. "What's wrong babe? You haven't eaten all day and you keep having this weird mood swings, you even reject the food I
**Author's POV**Scarlet woke up that morning feeling sad and down. Her hair was scattered all over her face as she made her way to Xavier's room. He had wanted to spend the night with her the previous day but she grumpily sent him away, now she wanted to see him.She managed to get to the room and sat on the bed, watching him with her elbow resting in the bed while her jaw was in her palms. She watched him sleep peacefully and felt at peace within her.She had really stressed him the previous day and felt bad for him. Despite the stress from work and all others, she still gave him a hard time and it made her feel bad.Xavier woke up and gasped when he saw Scarlett. He quickly wiped his face and got down from the bed."What's wrong, babe? Why are you here so early in the morning?" He held her shoulders as he asked.Scarlett said nothing and burst into tears. Her tears were hurting Xavier and he didn't know what to do. He tried to pet her but it wasn't working."Calm down and tell me w
**Author's POV**Xavier felt like going crazy not knowing exactly what was wrong with her. She has been acting weird since the day before and had refused him calling a doctor to come check on her."Scarlett, why don't we go for a run in the woods?" He asked and she stopped crying immediately. She smiled brightly and quickly put on her clothes."In the woods?" She asked and he nodded.She screamed in excitement.Xavier smiled and put on his clothes too before leading her out of the palace and into the woods. Xavier took extra clothes since they were going to shift. They got to a tree shade and removed the previous clothes they were putting on.Scarlett kept looking at Xavier's naked body while different ideas were running through her head. Xavier noticed her stared and shook his head."You do know we're here for a run, right?" He asked."Why don't we have only one round before we go?" She requested but Xavier wasn't going to have any of it."No, you're having nothing." Xavier said.Sca
*Author's POV*Xavier felt like pulling his hair and screaming in frustration. This weird behavior of hers was slowly killing him, he can't even understand her anymore or whatever it is that's happening to her and she's been refusing to see the doctor."Babe, don't you want the barbeque anymore? We haven't eaten and you also need to rest." He said softly.Scarlett's eyes turned glassy and her bottom lip began to tremble. Xavier knew what was coming next and before he could apologize to her for only God knows what he did wrong, she burst into tears, wailing so loud that it hurt his ears.Xavier apologized repeatedly, but Scarlett wasn't having any of it, she felt hurt and she was letting it all out in her tears."You don't love me." She cried."Babe, please I'm sorry...alright fine, let's do as you wish, let's play rock, paper, scissors." He smiled.And just like magic, Scarlett stopped crying, she sniffed and wiped off her tears. "Really?" She smiled brightly, just like a child.Xavie
*Author's POV*By the time Xavier could break the door, Scarlett hurriedly washed her face and put on a bright face."Babe." Xavier ran to hug her. "What's wrong with you? Let me call the doctor." He said as he pulled out of the hug."No no." Scarlett hurriedly declined. "I'm fine, you don't need to call the doctor."Xavier sighed in frustration. "You know what babe, I'm just gonna come clean and won't hide it anymore." He said.Scarlett was so nervous as she didn't know what he was going to say."You've been acting so weird lately and it's getting me worried, most of all your behaviors lately is unlike you, you get mood swings and weird cravings and you keep on crying for every little thing, you're acting weird and I think you need to see the doctor, you even throw up regularly and complain that the smell of some food irritates you and make you feel nauseous, like you get irritated easily. This is unlike you babe, you really need to see a doctor." Xavier said in one breath.His words
**Author's POV**Sandra is shocked when Scarlett suddenly bursts into tears. She became confused and held Scarlett."Babe, what's wrong? Why are you crying?" She asked but Scarlett said nothing.She only shed tears. Scarlett was fed up. She couldn't control her tears as she remembered all she made Xavier go through. She knew he was only trying to put up with her and that's why he played along with her. The worst part of it all was that she had no idea about what was wrong with her.First, she was having terrible mood swings, the next she was vomiting and soon it was blood, blood! She had no idea why all these were happening to her. Why was she being too emotional? Why was her body reacting in a way she couldn't understand? And worse, why was she coughing blood? What the hell was wrong with her? She didn't want to visit the hospital, so that Xavier would not be too worried about her.Sandra sighed and made Scarlett sit down. She knew petting her would be fruitless right now, so she jus
Author's POV**When Scarlett heard that they were going to break down the door if Sandra didn't let them in, she gasped and looked around, not really sure of what to do."Forcing your way through will be fruitless because Scarlett isn't in there." Sandra maintained her stance.Xavier and Arnold exchanged looks. She seemed so confident. Does that mean Scarlett wasn't in there? But it wouldn't hurt to try and check at least.Arnold took Sandra by her waist and lifted her up before entering the room with Xavier. When they entered, Scarlett was nowhere to be found. Even Sandra was shocked.Where could she have gone?****Elora just finished washing her hands when she heard screaming coming from the kitchen area. There was definitely something wrong. She grabbed one of the knives and headed over, trying not to make any sound as she did so. She peeked into the room and saw Xena being dragged out kicking and screaming. "What the hell are you doing?" she demanded loudly."The Alpha asked us
CHAPTER 208-Epilogue ***Scarlett's POV*** Five months had passed and I hadn't been so happy as I was now, it was like a dream come true for me. I was finally pregnant with the future Alpha, yes you heard me. I was expecting a girl but was given a boy, a strong male wolf. I dreamt about it. He was handsome and a replica of my Xavier. I smiled as I rubbed my baby bump, my stomach was quite bloated, it looked like I was going to deliver at any minute because my stomach was so big. I chuckled at my thoughts and I had the sudden urge to eat. "I'm hungry" I mouthed and stared down at my big baby bump. "Did anyone mention food?" I heard Xavier's voice and couldn't stop myself from laughing. These few months have been so much fun and enjoyment, Xavier wasn't just different but funnier. He did a lot of things to make me laugh, it was evident that he loved his child very much. " I did" I snickered and looked at him, he was holding a tray in his hand. I frown in disagreement, thi
CHAPTER 207 ***Scarlett's POV***Two months later.I could hear voices everyday, though I tried to move and respond but it was hard for me and I didn't know why. I heard Xavier's voice and he always had a sad tone, telling me to wake up but I tried to tell him that I couldn't but it was impossible to talk or move. Moved my limbs in my head but I couldn't move them physically, it was all in my head. I didn't feel any pain on my body, I just felt numb or rather dead. "She has not woken up, it's been two fucking months and she hasn't responded to anything" I heard Xavier's voice, he sounded like he was sobbing. 'Don't cry, I will try harder to open my eyes' "What If she stays like this forever, what's going to happen to us, our lives?" Xavier broke into tears. "She's going to wake up and it will happen soon, fretting won't help anyone" Arnold replied and patted his shoulder loudly. "Scarlett is a fighter, she would get out of this" I couldn't hear anything else except footsteps.
***Author's POV***Scarlett vomited the little she had eaten, it left her stomach empty. The door suddenly opened and she flushed. "Hey" Xavier called softly and held both sides of her waist. "Are you okay?" Scarlett moved closer to the sink and washed her face. "I don't know" She slightly shrugged and faced him with a little expression of discomfort on her face. "Should I call the doctors?" "N-no need for you to do that, I think it's the junk I have been eating for the past weeks' ' Scarlett sighed and her lips curled into a smile. "I know that look, stop feeling guilty because I am fine and we will soon be happy without any obstacles, without Cassandra" The mention of her name made Scarlett extremely nervous especially when it came from her own mouth, it made her lips tremble, she shouldn't feel afraid but Cassandra scares her, but she can hear the voice of her wolf telling her, she would be victorious. "I feel more nauseous being in here" Scarlett frowned slightly as she fel
***Author's POV***Cassandra spouted out blood but she instantly vanished. Lisa and Scarlett were shocked. Xavier's wolf growled and stared at his fangs, the blood had totally vanished as well. Xavier turned to stare at Scarlett who simply smiled at his wolf. 'I am sorry for all I did to you, forgive me' He apologised through the mind link. 'You didn't do anything wrong, you were just blinded by your rage because you thought I had betrayed you' Scarlett responded and smiled at his wolf. Lisa stared at both of them and knew the lovers were communicating through mind links. "Alright, I don't know where Cassandra must have gone but I have to find Jamie… I will leave you both" Lisa giggled and left from there. *****Lisa went to the garden and his scent was stronger showing that he is near. "Jamie" Lisa smiled, Jamie faced her and spread his arms. Lisa chuckled and ran into his arms. He wrapped his hands around her and hugged her tightly. "How did it go in there?" Jamie asked wi
***Author's POV***"Lisa…" "Is it really you?" Scarlett asked because she was shocked to see her. "Yes it's me, your baby Lisa" Lisa smiled with teary eyes. "Lisa" Scarlett cried and they embraced tightly. "Lisa, where have you been?" "It's a long story" Lisa muttered and tightened the hug, she missed Scarlett a whole lot. Scarlett didn't stop asking her questions, they decided to settle down on the ground and talk about everything. Scarlett asked Lisa about her whereabouts and the revelation shocked her. "W–what are you saying?" Scarlett stuttered in shock. "I'm telling the truth, that woman isn't Elora, I think she is Cassandra because that name was inscribed on her sword… " Scarlett's eyes widened the more in shock, a loud gasp escaped from her lips. She had to cover her mouth with her palms. "She stabbed me with a sword when I found out about her true identity, I almost died but my mate saved me" Lisa explained and smiled while recalling Jamie. Scarlett wanted to ask ab
***Author's POV***Scarlett held her head in pain, she had this headache that was stopping her from opening her eyes, the cold she felt on her skin was making her shudder and become reluctant to see the new and awful world which she was back in. Scarlett inhaled and exhaled sharply, slowly and steadily she opened her eyes but it looked like she was still stuck in darkness, there was nothing visible to her apart from the darkness, it looked so thick like she could cut out a piece of it. It was like a dark cloud which she was entrapped in."Where am I?" Scarlett asked herself and gazed around the thick and dark room. She attempted standing but to her realisation, she's in chains not just any chain but silver, she could now feel the metal burning through her skin, it was scorching. Scarlett couldn't help but scream out of her unconscious state. "Aaahh!!!" Scarlett screamed and sat up instantly, she was breathing heavily. Her heart was thumping within her chest. Scarlett stared at he
***Author's POV***Cassandra teleported to the front of Xavier's sturdy, she could hear him destroying things inside. She bit her bottom lip, imagining him being sweaty and sexily angry, that would be fun to see. She smiled at herself, her plans were going so smoothly and according to plan, she believed that nothing could stop her now, not love or death could be an obstruction to her victory. Who could have thought that the sweetest couple would be fighting and be at each other's throats?, except that it's Scarlett's throat that's going to be slit in the process. Cassandra exhaled and knocked softly on the door. "Leave, I don't want to see anybody!!!" He growled loudly from the sturdy. Cassandra rolled her eyes and lazily opened the door then walked in. "Were you deaf when I said–" His words were cut short when he saw her, he folded his fist and snarled. "What are you doing here?If you are here to convince me about your friend then you have chosen the wrong timing!" Xavier yel
***Author's POV***"No!!!" "Xavier don't do this, I beg you" Scarlett cried loudly. She could never take being rejected for the second time, it would be the end of her, the mere thought of it could kill her. She wouldn't be able to take the pain and rejection. Xavier didn't complete his statement, he didn't know why he still wanted to believe her or why her tears still had that sort of effect on him but he knew that he could neither kill her nor reject her because he loved her too much. "P–please, don't reject me, you have got to believe me" Scarlett sobbed and crawled her way to his feet. "You've got to believe me that I would never betray you" Scarlett cried and wanted to hold his leg but he moved back. "I saw you with him, I saw you both naked on our matrimonial bed and he was sucking your fucking nipple or are you going to deny that too!" Xavier yelled. Scarlett burst into louder tears "I don't know what came over me, I swear it, Xavier I had no idea" "Was it the sex?Don't
***Author's POV***Xavier felt his heart break into a million pieces as he stared at his naked mate and his guard, it was like thousands of knives stabbed his heart at the same time. Xavier blinked repeatedly hoping that it was a dream and that this was one of his nightmares but reality dawned on him that it was far from illusions or a dream, this was stark reality. Scarlett was cheating on him,this is what she does when he travels or when he isn't around, is it the sex?, doesn't he give her enough of that. Scarlett and the guard looked at Xavier and immediately Scarlett's eyes met with Xavier's, the spell instantly faded from her being. "Aah" Scarlett gasped in shock of what she was doing, this wasn't her doing. She would never ever cheat on Xavier. "Xavier" Scarlett mutters with trembling lips. her heart is racing with her chest as she realises her unknown deeds. Tears fell out of Xavier's eyes staring at them, his wolf stirred with anger inside him, his eyes instantly changed
