**Alpha Xavier's POV**

I couldn't control my emotions and cried on her shoulders for a long time while she patted my back, assuring me that all was well and everything would be fine.

Avery has been the best thing that has ever happened to me and when she risked her life to save mine, I was unable to stop myself from feeling that it was all my fault. If she hadn't tried to save me, she wouldn't have died.

Before we got here, Arnold had advised that I tried to get over her. That is what I'm trying to do, but it's damn hard. Even though I feel something for Scarlett, it still hurt to let my number one go, but it was a decision I had to make. I won't forget her because she shared a space in my heart.

“There, there, it's alright. I know how you feel,” She said calmly, still patting my back. Her voice was so soothing, and I felt my tense muscles start to relax.

After a few minutes, I pulled away from the hug and wiped my eyes. Suddenly, I realized what I had done; I just looked weak in the

    **Scarlett's POV**“Huh?” His question caught me by surprise. I didn't know how to react or what to say.“What kind of question is that? If she didn't mean it, would she have said it, or are you thinking she did the same thing Cassandra did?” Arnold asked, and I began to wonder the same thing.Did he actually think I would act just to get on his good side? Why would he think this way after everything he told me at the waterfall? This got me wondering whether he meant what he said or he was just making a fool out of me like he always did.“I only wanted to know if she meant what he said, and you've already thought faraway. I appreciate people who show sincerity because they want to, not because they want to please people.” He said, glancing at me.“I have no one to please, and whatever I said there was what I was supposed to. I don't know her and I've heard a lot about her. I only took my judgment from what people said. If she wasn't a good person then people wouldn't have shown the wa

    **Scarlett's POV**“You're letting go?” I asked, my voice laced with shock. “I'm not saying that I'll forget her or something. I just don't want to feel this pain continuously anymore.” He bent his head.I sighed. “I know, it's a good thing to let go, but are you really letting go because you want to?” I asked him and he nodded.“Most things I've understood from what Arnold told me is that holding on to the past can stop you from doing what actually makes you happy. You can't forget the past, but you can choose to be happy,” He faced me with a smile. “I have chosen to be happy, Scarlett.”I smiled back. “That's a good one. I didn't know you had this side to you,” I joked.“There are countless things you do not know about me.” He replied and I smiled.He took the picture and placed it on top of the shelf. Furthermore, he also dropped the frames he took out of his drawer on the shelf too and faced me.“That's the last one,” He sighed, putting his hand on his waist.I was happy he was f

    **Scarlett's POV**"Please, go out with me. I love you."My eyes widened and my mouth became agape. Is this some kind of dream or what? If it is a dream, someone should wake me up before my heart gets toyed with."What did you just say?" My voice shook asI asked.He sighed. "I know it might sound crazy but I couldn't keep it anymore. You were the reason why I wasn't too affected by Avery's death anymore. You gave me a reason to smile again. I know we didn't stay off well. It has always been you and if you give me a chance, I promise to make things better between us. I promise you love and cherish you like gold because that is what you've become to me." He said and tears rolled down my cheeks.Was all these happening to me right now? The great Alpha Xavier loves me? A whole me? Common person like me? His confession fueled my hidden feelings for him and I couldn't help but let my tears flow freely.He used his thumb finger to wipe my tears away, while staring at me, anticipating an ans

    **Michael's POV**“Who's there?” I asked as I walked through the deserted valley, but the response I got was silence. The silence gave off an eerie feeling, and the fact that I had no idea about where I was worsened it.I was barefooted and the ground was cold, making me shiver a bit.“Anybody?” I yelled into the night, but my voice echoed back to me.With a sigh, I decided to keep going, even though I had no idea about my destination. It seemed like I had walked for hours, but it was only for a second. I could feel my legs giving out and my body becoming weak.I looked ahead and saw a figure standing and looking in my direction. Happy that I had indeed found a savior; someone that would take me out of here, I summoned strength and rushed to the person. As I hit closer, I realized that it was a woman, but her face wasn't obvious, so I decided to keep going. Whoever she is, she might know a way out of here.When I got there, her face was still not visible, and I was prompted to ask, “W

How could he just wake up one morning and all he could tell me was how we should find Scarlett and apologize to her? “Don't get mad, Elora. It's just—”“Just what?” I cut in. “You must be joking. What did we do to her that warrants an apology, huh?” I snapped.“You know what we did to her,” He answered, and I licked my lips. “We accused her of what she didn't do. We framed her, Elora.” “And how are you sure those accusations were wrong? Didn't you know why I suggested that plan? I saw her doing it. I know her better than you because I was her best friend.” I yelled.He kept quiet for a while. “Then what about the nightmare?”“The nightmare? What nightmare?” I asked, arching my brows.“I saw Scarlett in my dream. She told me that I accused her of what she didn't do. She said she was coming for revenge and my life was what she wanted.

She asked, arching her brows.I chuckled slightly before facing her. "I want you to picture the way his life was when you first got here and how it is now." I suggested."It isn't something I would want to picture, Arnold. It was horrible!" She said,I smiled. "What about now?" I asked."He is okay now. I mean, I got to see a new side of him and it's sweet." She smiled."And do you think it was all for nothing? Do you think he just woke up one morning and decided to change and be sweet?" I asked her but she still wasn't getting my point.She furrowed her eyebrows. "I don't think so. Maybe something prompted him to do so." She answered."Or maybe someone," I smiled. "You're the reason for his change Scarlett. You made him this way and I am grateful." I said."To be honest, I don't know what I have done to him. All I know is that I came into this pack," Sh

    Alpha Xavier's POV**I turned to see Arnold glaring at me. Hiding back my laughter, I smiled at him."What is the problem?" I asked."What else? You fucking kissed her in my presence, you pervert!" He threw a pillow at me but I caught it."Come on, dude. It's not my fault that I am very happy today. I finally got the chance to be happy again. Don't you know how that feels?" I asked."I do but you keep rubbing it in my face." He snapped."Then go get a girlfriend." I suggested and he sighed."I haven't seen anyone that catches my eyes yet. I want the first girl I'll fuck to be my mate, dude." He said and I laughed."Keep looking for her. You might find her." I rolled my eyes. Arnold was a flirt, he flirts with anything female but has very high taste in women. He hadn't found his mate yet and that was why whenever a foreign offer came into the company from another country, he would go in my stead with the hope of coming across his mates there. He didn't even care if his mate was a huma

    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

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.

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.
