**Scarlett's POV**After Alpha Xavier took me to the slave masters, my life turned from worse to worst. He practically asked them to give me times two of whatever punishments he gave the slaves, he also asked them to give me the hardest tasks to accomplish and believe when I say, I know nothing about any of those tasks. My back had received numerous whips and my face numerous slaps. If not that I was a wolf, they'd all left a scar and made me hideous.Just today, I just mined a whole bucket of coal. My palm was wounded, and I knew that the Alpha would be expecting me to freshen up and hurry to his chambers. I was too tired to get fucked today, but what can I do? It had turned into his daily routine; my vagina was sore and aching, and I'm uncertain if I can handle being like this anymore. I would have been dead by now if the moon goddess hadn't given us the ability to heal.I sighed as I slid out of my dirty clothes, throwing them into the basket in my room. The basket was already fil
**Alpha Xavier's POV**After she blacked out, I hurriedly carried her in a bridal style and glared at the body of the guard on the floor. I felt like butchering him into a hundred pieces, making him come back to life and killing him all over again.I took her out and met Arnold, who I had left beside the door. We only went to visit a neighboring pack for an important issue and this happened. Goodness knows what would have happened if we hadn't come early and if I hadn't heard her cry for help quickly. The thought of another man fucking her, made me furious, and my eyes turned dark.“Calm down, big guy. She is safe, the idiot is dead, and you're with her now. That's all that matters.” Arnold patted my shoulder, but I wouldn't have it.“Do you know what would have happened if I wasn't early?” I snapped. “Thank goodness we didn't stop at the bar like we used to.” I growled and Arnold sighed.“Aren't you going to take her to the hospital?” Arnold asked.“No, she's staying in my chambers t
**Scarlett's POV**I groaned and sat up, rubbing my eyes with the back of my palm. My eyes snapped open when I remembered what happened. Alpha Xavier had beheaded that guard yesterday and saved me. I glanced at my breasts and saw that it was bandaged, glanced at my hands too and there was a bandage on it. Did he treat me yesterday? Hell no! It's not possible. He must have called the pack doctor.I looked down and saw him seated with his head on the bed, sleeping soundly. His hair fell to his face, making him look hot and cute. He didn't look like that ruthless Alpha he was anymore, he looked humble, vulnerable, and sweet. His facial features were just perfect; no flaws.I got so lost staring at him that I didn't know when he woke up.“Is that how you stare at people in the morning?” He asked, jolting me out of my reverie.“W… Wh… Huh?” I stuttered. His question took me unawares and I got a bit embarrassed that he caught me staring. A part of me was also scared of what he might do to m
**Scarlett's POV**He wrapped his hands around my waist and deepened the kiss. A moan escaped me as I let him push me against the wall. His hands slipped under the duvet, touching me with more confidence than before. I felt something inside of me stir in response. He pulled away from the kiss for a second to catch his breath. A smirk formed on his face that made me smile back at him.“Do not act pathetic in my presence again.” He ordered.I had no idea why he said that, but I nodded anyway.We kissed again, this time slower and deeper. I could feel the need rising inside of me. Our tongues fought over dominance while our lips pressed desperately to each other. Our kisses were filled with lust and desire. This one was way different from when he tortured me; this one was passionate, and I could feel myself wanting him.I broke away from his grip and looked into his eyes. He seemed as if he wanted me as much as I wanted him. I reached behind him and took his belt off. He helped me slip
**Cassandra's POV**I couldn't believe what I was seeing in front of me. So, this bitch is the reason Xavier has been ignoring my calls and not inviting me over. This bitch again! “What is the meaning of this?” I asked but Xavier glanced at me, his voice void of any emotions.I watched how the bitch looked at me. She wasn't even ashamed of what she had done.“Xavier, what happened to her being a slave and you having nothing to do with her, huh?” I snapped.“Don't you dare raise your voice at me,” He yelled, and I flinched. “She is a slave, so what? That doesn't stop her from giving me the pleasure I deserve.” He glared at me.I've always known that there was something about this bitch. I get that she's beautiful and has all the nice curves, but I beat her in all that.“Why can't you call me when you need to be pleased? I told you how much I hate seeing you with other women.” I whined.“Why are you talking like you've become my wife or something?” He frowned.This is part of the Thing
**Alpha Xavier's POV**“What is wrong?” Cassandra asked, but I didn't answer her. My mind was jumbled up, and I didn't understand why I had this aching feeling in my heart whenever I remembered Scarlett's words before she stormed out. It couldn't be possible that I'm feeling something for her at all. She is just a slave and doesn't deserve my sympathy. The only duty she has is to pleasure me and nothing more.“Honey,” Cassandra called again. “Don't tell me you're thinking about what that bitch said?” Cassandra asked.I felt a little angry as Cassandra called her bitch. I ruffled my hair, wondering what was wrong with me. Avery is the only person I love; even though she's dead, she is my mate and I feel for her alone.I tried to encourage myself, but her picture kept appearing in my mind. I couldn't take my mind off her. This sudden feeling to check on her came. The words I said had hurt her and I know I shouldn't feel bad about it, but something in me kept stirring, making me uncomfo
**Arnold's POV**“Don't you think it's time to let go and move on?” I asked, immediately I walked in and saw him staring at that picture again. I couldn't comprehend why he was hard on himself over his mate's death. I tried my best to find a way to make him forget about her, but he wouldn't.“Her death still feels fresh, Arnold.” He turned to face me. Tears had already gathered in his eyes, and I couldn't fight the urge to pull him in for a hug.“I know how you feel buddy,” I said and hugged him. “You have to move on for the pain to go away. I am sure she wants the same thing for you.” I cooed.He sighed and pulled away from the hug. Wiping his face dry, he stood and tucked his hands in his pockets, still glancing at the picture. Somehow I could feel his hurt, his pain and I didn't want him to experience that. I was the only person who could see his vulnerable side, I'm the only person he shares his darkest secrets with. He wasn't always like this; all these happened after we lost Av
**Scarlett's POV**When I got to my room, I plopped down on the bed and burst into tears. I was such a fool for believing that he actually cared about me. Why do I like getting my hopes up all the time? He was mainly using me to satisfy his sexual urge and doesn't give a damn about my feelings.I was such a fool for giving myself to him today; I regret making that decision today. If it was possible to turn back the hands of time, I would gladly do that and fix my mistakes.Tears rolled down my cheeks as I remembered the words he said to that lady. I hate him! I hate him so much!A hard knock came on my door and I wondered who it was. It wouldn't be Alpha Xavier because I'm sure he wanted nothing to do with me other than to fuck the living daylight out of me. He should be having fun with his fake red haired mistress and not coming to bother me. Could it be people at the office or the slave masters?I sat up and quickly wiped the tears away from my face. Stepping down from the bed, I re
