*Author's POV*"Ahh.." Cassandra moaned as the guard she had asked to fuck her sucked on her breasts.She needed to quench the burning need inside of her and since Xavier wasn't available, she didn't mind doing it with a guard knowing they wouldn't remember anything by the time this whole thing was done.Her eyes rolled back in ecstasy when the guard took her nipples into his mouth and gently flicked them around with his tongue and then pulled hard on them. Cassandra groaned and threw her head back, trying not to cry out too loudly at the intense sensations that coursed through her body. She could feel the tingle of blood pumping to the surface as her pussy tightened up and wetness filled her panties. Her fingers grasped the bedpost behind her head, digging painfully into the plaster. The guard sucked harder on the nipple he was sucking before and it made Cassandra squirm and whimper under him. "Ahhh…please..more... more..."The guard let go of the breast and instead grabbed hold o
**Author's POV**THE NEXT DAY...Xavier had woken up early enough to prepare hot ginger tea for Scarlett. He had no idea why her skin was turning pale this past few days and wanted to help her at least.He had no idea about what was wrong with her and whenever he asked, she would always tell him that she was fine. He was planning on secretly calling the doctor to attend to her because he was worried about what could possibly be wrong. He prayed it wasn't some sort of disease or a curse. But what if it was? Then what would he do? He didn't want to let someone else deal with the burden that is Scarlett when she needed him more than ever. After he was done, he arranged it in a tray with a loaf of bread and headed for his chambers. The maids were shocked out of their wits. This was the first time they saw the Alpha do something in the kitchen. Who was that special person he made tea for since they all knew he didn't like tea?Their eyes followed him until he alighted the stairs. Xavier c
**Author's POV**Xavier left what he was doing and turned to face Scarlett. He claimed her lips instantly and she kissed him back with enthusiasm. His hands were in her hair, his fingers dancing at the roots of her curls where they came out of her bun, tangling as they moved further up to caress the soft, sensitive skin on her neck. He felt her moan against his mouth and deepened the kiss as his tongue slid past her lips seeking entry. She moaned louder, a throaty sound which sent heat coursing through his body making it tingle pleasantly in places that made his groin ache and his erection throb. He pulled away so they could catch their breaths and rested his forehead on hers. "You sure know how to turn an Alpha on." Xavier smirked.She kissed his cheek. "You made me naughty. Now, do the needful!" She ordered.He chuckled and pulled her closer to himself, claiming her lips that instant with more urgency than before. Their teeth clicked together from his neediness and he felt her chuc
**Author's POV**Cassandra entered her room, looking exhausted and famished. She had denied herself of food that morning and gone to visit the priestess about the poison issue. She didn't understand why it hadn't taken any effect on Scarlett yet, and she was becoming more and more worried with every passing day. She had a feeling that whatever they were putting in her food had some sort of antidote in it, and she wanted to know what they did to counteract the poison. However, there was no way to get a word out about the subject without raising suspicion.She sighed and knew that if she kept going to the maid like that, it might blow up her cover and that was something she didn't want at all.The priestess told her something interesting though and that has been able to make her less worried.**flashback**"Remember when I said the poison would kill her slowly?" The priestess asked."Yes, I do and it's been weeks if not months and nothing has happened. I hate the fact that she goes abou
*Author's POV*"Scarlett! Scarlett!!" Xavier screamed as he dropped to his knees and placed her head on his lap, Scarlett had blood oozing out of her mouth.Cassandra who already made herself invisible when she heard his footsteps wasn't pleased to see him crying like a baby over Scarlett.She raised her hand up in an attempt to knock him unconscious so he wouldn't be able to help Scarlett, but then she couldn't do it, she can't afford to see him hurt.She knew the poison would have damaged her internal organs so bad that only a miracle will be able to save her and she smiled knowing there's no such things as miracles and Scarlett will eventually die."Bye bye Scarlett." She laughed before disappearing."I won't let anything happen to you Scarlett. Nothing will happen." He cried.He hurriedly carried her in a bridal style and ran with inhumane speed to the pack hospital."Doctor Blinks!!" Xavier screamed when he got to the hospital.Doctor Blinks who was having a conversation with one
*Author's POV*Cassandra made a low growling sound as she used her magic to throw April across the room, causing the latter to groan in pain.Cassandra hurriedly went to meet April and before April had the time to react, Cassandra kicked her hard across the face. The force sent April sprawling back onto the ground, the wind being knocked out of her as well. “Why are you doing this?” April asked through clenched teeth as her nose started to bleed.“You know why I'm doing this. You dared to betray me and I thought you were acting all high and mighty before, what happened now darling?!” Cassandra spat out as she stood over April menacingly. April sat up quickly enough that some blood splattered on Cassandra's dress. “Please stop, Cassandra…” she whispered softly. “Don't make me do it. It hurts so much.” Cassandra glared at her before throwing another kick, this one making her stagger backwards slightly. “Stop talking! I'm tired of hearing your whining!” She grabbed April by the front
**Author's POV***"Cassandra, please you can't do this to me." April pleaded and went on her knees."Stop pleading with me, baby girl. You were actually planning to report me to the Alpha." Cassandra smirked as she approached April, who moved back in fright."No, I wasn't." She denied. The last thing she wanted was to die right now. She knew how heartless Cassandra was and if the lady could have the heart to poison someone using dark magic, who was she? She needed to beg for her life if that was the last thing she'd do for Cassandra to have mercy on her.Cassandra only chuckled and grabbed her by the neck. She punched her in her guts, sending her sprawling on the floor once again.April spat out blood. "Help!" She screamed and that only infuriated Cassandra, who went to her in a flash and gave her a reverberating slap. She fell on her stomach from the force of it. It felt as if her head was going to explode at any moment. Tears streamed down her face. Her nose started bleeding too.C
**Author's POV**The Next Day..."You look really bad." One of the maids told Elora when they were doing the dishes."Do I?" Elora scoffed."Yes. Are you sure you're okay?" She asked worriedly."I'm just stressed out. No need for worry or concern." She said while putting the dishes in a basket "If you're stressed out then you need to rest. You've tried by helping us do chores already. You are acting like a maid and not like the future Luna. I know you have your reasons for helping us but don't you think it's becoming too much? And it's taking a toll on you." The maid complainedElora only sighed and sniffed back the tears that were about to fall from her eyes. How was she going to explain to this maid that she was no longer the future Luna and that everything she told them was a lie? How was she going to explain the pain and punishment she had to endure day and night? What would she even start from and where would she end?"I've heard you." She simply said and continued doing the dis
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
