Chapter 31: "He saw what?"

Roman's pov“He saw me.”The room is full of people and Scarlett is a small form at my side but she’s been acting nervous since she got here.“Who saw what?”She gives me a cross look and shifts her head awkwardly in what I'll assume is her way of gesturing.“Him, the man you sent to come get me. He saw me.”The frown that lines my face doesn’t do justice to the amount of confusion I feel.“He saw you? He has to see you if he wants to ask you to come meet me, doesn’t he?”Scarlett stares at me for a moment and I see something like indecision in her eyes. There is a struggle there. She doesn’t know if she wants to tell me this thing or not and I'm not sure if she understands what she wants to tell me herself.He saw her? He has to see her. I asked him to get her for me. I frown and watch her critically. “Are you okay, Scarlett?”She hesitates at first but still nods. It’s a nod that hides all the doubts she feels about that question. I can imagine that she doesn’t feel like the strong

Chapter 32: "You should be my assistant."

Scarlett's pov“You should be my assistant.”I look at the words written on the note and I blink in case I just viewed them wrong, but I didn't. I read it right. The words are there, clear as day, and I don't know what to think about it.I mean I could become his assistant, I was never allowed to do anything in Hunter’s pack, not because he wanted to take care of me that way but because he saw me as incapable of doing anything. I was meant to produce his heir, and when I gave birth to Maya instead of a son for him, I failed at the one thing I was meant to do.I was seen as useless from that moment forward. I graduated from High School and was well into my college education before I met Hunter. The mate bond snapped tight between us when I was Twenty years old. Just when I imagined I would never get a mate, and right there and then I gave everything up for him.To become his Luna and his mate.“I wonder what he sees in you.”I turn at the sound of that voice and surprisingly it does

Chapter 33: "Alpha Roman's personal assistant."

Scarlett’s pov.Roman is in his office when I get there. My hands are clammy and I'm sweating from the nervousness I feel, but I have to do this. He knows something. He was in the room the moment I woke up and he was the first person to spot the mark on Maya’s neck. It’s strange that I don't feel anything from it, not even a sting. I’m in front of the Alpha’s office and trying to gather my thoughts when I hear a voice behind me.“Are you going in?” The deep timbre pulls me out of my thoughts and I blink to find him standing in front of me. The male from earlier. The one who saw me naked.I feel my cheeks heat up as I remember that moment and the anger comes back again. Anger at the fact that he actually saw me undressed and didn’t have the decency to turn away or walk out. He stood and he stared.I clear my throat and look away from him. He smirks and walks fully into the office to go sit down on one of the chairs. Maybe this was a bad idea.“Are you okay?”Roman’s voice clears

Chapter 34: "He did what?"

Roman’s pov.“Calm down. I know what I'm doing.”Scarlett regards me calmly and cocks her head to the side. “Are you sure?”“I am.”Everything between us feels so settled right now that I don't know what to think of it. She’s still beautiful, as beautiful as she was when I first saw her, but now, with the hair change, she feels different.I think I've always been aware that this has been happening. Right from that moment when she held a gun in her hands and shot wolves down so she could protect herself and her daughter.Scarlett is bolder now, she would never have asked me a question like that a week ago.“He’s the one who saw me this morning.”I look at her and nod.“I sent him to your room to get you.”“And he saw me naked.”“He did what?”Fenrir’s anger is like a lance at my throat. The pressure building in my chest is remarkable, but he’s not the one in control, I am.Scarlett’s eyes are wide in shock and I see she’s flinched. I relax back into my seat and close my eyes so I can

Chapter 35: "I will pay you back Myrtle, I promise."

Roman's povShe’s in her cell when we arrive.Scarlett doesn’t gag at the stench and she doesn’t seem to smell it. It’s another indication that whatever has happened to her is related to Myrtle and the ritual.The older werewolf stares at both of us, her eyes moving from me to Scarlett and finally settling on Scarlett, roaming over her form deliberately and curiously.I don’t know when I move but I know I do.I cover Scarlett from Myrtle’s line of sight and my nose flares in slight anger.She doesn’t get to inspect my mate like that.My former councilor smiles and white eyes meet mine.“You’ve become attached, Alpha Roman. Does she know?”My breath stills and anger floods my bones like liquid heat.The old lady chuckles.“How would she? She’s still mated to someone else. She doesn’t feel anything.”My aura bursts from me with the force of a rushing torrent and I imagine it wrapping around Myrtle and sinking into her mind.“Roman..”Scarlett’s breath is shaky and whispery and I tell sh

Chapter 36: "What the fuck?"

Scarlett's pov “Mummy, your body is really hot.”I open my eyes to see Maya leaning over me. Her purple eyes still strike me as strange whenever I see them. It makes her look exotic, lends her a special kind of beauty, and seeing her worry leaking through from those eyes makes me smile. “It’s okay Maya. The room is just really warm.” She nods and lies down again, her head on my chest now and her eyes on the ceiling. “How long are we going to stay here mummy?” Surprising questions seem to be Maya’s forte and I should be used to it now, but it still surprises me. “Why do you ask?”“I like it here. Beta Fen has promised that he’ll let me train as a warrior if I come out top of my class for the next two years.” The frown that lines my face is spectacular. I thought I said no more discussing things with Maya without my permission. “Do you want to become a warrior, Amaya? Maya stills and turns to stare at me, eyes wide. “Did I do something wrong? You only call me Amaya when it’s s

Chapter 37: "To the most expensive fashion mall in the city."

Roman's pov“I really have to do all this?”I struggle with knotting the tie around my neck and turn back to look at her.This is a new day, the next morning I had anticipated last night, and I know it’s wrong of me to want something to happen immediately but I still want it. Scarlett is at the door to my room and she’s holding a sheet of paper in her hand. From the look on her face, I would say she’s shocked. She doesn’t let it show though. Just how much shock she’s in is a mystery, but I can tell it isn’t what she expected.A smile creeps onto my face as I think of that and I nod.“Yes. Those are the responsibilities of a personal assistant.”She scoffs.“Set out my suit every morning, make sure my morning tea is served in bed, polish my shoes and arrange my watches in chronological order, make my bed, and handle everything that has to do with my room?”“And a few other things.”I turn to look at her and my pretty second chance has a stunned look on her face. She scoffs incredulous

Chapter 38: "Something like that."

Scarlett’s pov.If I had known this was one of the duties I would carry out as Roman’s personal assistant, I think I would have asked for some more money.Shit, I haven't discussed my pay with him yet.I bite my cheek in regret at that fact and smoothen the bed. There isn’t too much to do in his room, at least not from what he informed me that I had to do. I have tidied up his room, I've also asked one of the guards to help me with a vacuum cleaner. The guard assumed I was a cleaner anyways so he’s sent for one. I should be done when I vacuum the room, which in actuality is just for the show of it. Roman's room isn’t dirty, it’s spotless, thanks to me, but I still have a lot to do.If I'm going to clean up his room, I'm going all out.The vacuum cleaner arrives and I take it with a smile. His room is huge.I know I've been in here before, I can remember waking up in that bed twice, but now that Roman’s not here and I am the only one in the room, it feels different in a way.I have

Chapter 39: "Come on, spill it already."

Scarlett’s pov.Danis takes me to a dress shop and on the way we talk.He asks what I'm doing in the Ironclaw pack and I tell him I'm here for work, but I can tell he doesn’t buy it. There’s no way I can give up my true reason for being here, but he also helps me in his own way.“Roman says you’re here to help with the current situation in his pack?”The male nods and looks around with a wide smile on his face. I’m surprised at the way he smiles so widely, but he does and he seems much more friendly than I thought he would be. The Shadowbane pack is renowned for its association with unsightly things. Each pack has its heritage, its history. I studied history while I was still in university and it always fascinated me, the fact that our history was mixed with that of the normal world.“You’re distracted, Vivienne.”I don’t frown when he calls me that name this time. I’ve frowned in confusion twice now when he called me that name and I was this close to telling him my name isn’t Vivi

Chapter 40: "How about i make his life hell?"

Roman’s pov. Scarlet hasn’t shown up for work yet.I don’t know what to make of that but I know it leaves me restless.Fen is a lazy form in my office, his blazer has been thrown off to one corner and his legs are currently on my table.I growl at the sight of it and he rolls his eyes.“Relax Alpha. I’m sure the moment she sees the ten thousand dollar ensembles you ordered for her, she’ll be running here as fast as she can.”“Does she even know how to find her way here?”The worry in my voice is appalling but Fen doesn’t call me out on it. I haven’t seen my father since the Myrtle incident. I only just remembered a few hours ago that he asked to go on temporary leave, and I'm assuming he’s currently on that leave.Guilt twists in my heart because I should feel worried about him.No member of the pack has been the same ever since the rogue attack, but not many will feel the loss accrued that day like Alpha Kai.He was supposed to retire as Alpha the year that happened. I was ready
