**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
**Elora's POV**“What the fuck just came out of your mouth?” I asked with a glare.Did he take me for a fool? 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. I pleaded, but she didn't listen and kille

**Arnold's POV**Her eyes widened the moment I said that and she turned to look into my eyes. "I saved his life? What do you mean?" 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
**Scarlett's POV**Tears welled up in my eyes when I heard those words from him. It really felt good to have someone care for me like this. I didn't know what to say and kissed him this time around. When I pulled out, I covered my face and he chuckled."I love you," He said."I love you more." I answered and he tucked a strand of my hair behind my ears."You're off to the office?" He asked and I nodded. "Let's go together then."I wanted to complain that what if people saw us together, but remembered what he had told me."Let me get my purse and lock the door." I said.I rushed in, grabbed my purse and keys before stepping out. After locking the door, he intertwined his fingers with mine and we started leaving the palace. As we walked by, the maids kept staring at us and murmuring amongst themselves.I arched up my ears and was able to hear some of the things they were saying."Are they together now?""Oh my goodness, she's so lucky.""I'm jealous and when I say jealous, I mean jealou
**Cassandra's POV**My lips formed into a smirk when I saw how shocked everyone was. They all turned to look at Scarlett at the same time with shocked expressions on their faces. Even she was taken aback by what I said and I smiled. She dared to try and take what belongs to me? I'll show her how it feels to get hurt and broken."What?" Arnold snapped. He held a frown and glared at me, showing me that he didn't believe what I said. I rolled my eyes. It wasn't my business if he believed or not, the only person that had the final say was Xavier."You heard me well. Since she is a pervert, I'm sure she is responsible for something like that." I clicked my tongue."Excuse me?" She folded her arms, glaring at me."What? Do you think I don't know what you've been up to? You don't belong here yet you keep acting like this is your pack. You act like you belong here when you don't know the rules of this place. You should be ashamed of yourself," I said and looked away.Doctor Blake was also con
