All Chapters of Luna Scarlett's Second Chance: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Roman sticks to me like bees to honey.I appreciate the gesture at first. Fear still courses through my bones at the fact that Hunter is in this room but when thirty minutes pass after our arrival and I am not approached by him or even glanced at twice, I begin to relax and get angry.Hunter Tyson, Alpha of the Nightshade pack seems happy at this event.He sips champagne, looking immaculate in his metallic gray suit and elegantly coiffed hair. Females crowd him and goddess forbid he lets them go without making his intention to sleep with them known.I notice some of them exchange pitiful glances or hurt looks, but they look sorry for him and it makes me suspect some foul play. Danis comes back with the information I need wearing a sneer on his face.He plops into the last chair around our table and Roman looks up from his phone to glare at him. I don’t know what to feel so I just look eagerly. A smirk lines Danis’s face and his green eyes glow a sinister color for the briefest mome

Roman's pov.Hunter stares at me with knowing eyes but my eyes don’t search for him.They search for her.Scarlett has somehow managed to disappear with Danis and goddess help me, if I get my hands on that lying two-faced son of a…“I know you killed my Beta Roman. I sent him on an errand and I assume he had to pass through your pack. His trail ended there.”I turn to look at Hunter and focus on him once more.He’s oblivious to the fact that his mate is in the same hall with him. Dare I say, I don't believe he’s been searching for her in earnest. I see the way he looks at the other women here.I see the way he seems totally unbothered about the location of his wife and child, but I can also see the malice in his eyes when he speaks about her.He said he would get her back, but he doesn’t deserve her. It’s not my place to say, but it’s clear as day.I lean back into my seat and direct a level stare at him.“Do you remember those times we would both play adult as children? Your father

The Lykos fundraiser moves on with me wearing a smile on my face and looking as calm as can be.Alpha Gomez agreed to allow Roman to see if he can deal with this problem in his pack. The fact that he could simply be using us for the benefits is still there, a constant feeling at the back of my mind. He could get what he wants and decide to simply give Roman his thanks instead of proposing an alliance, but for that to happen it would mean I read him wrong, and while reading people isn’t my best quality, I have a really good feeling about this. Roman comes back with Danis in tow and I take a moment to inspect the differences between them.Roman is taller. Danis stands a head shorter than him. Roman has a dark moody look to him, a rugged handsomeness that spells danger but is also controlled.It’s the kind of feeling that makes you think he’ll bite if you touch him, but only if you touch.It hasn’t been that long since I spent time admiring his body yet the images of this morning come

Scarlett.Maya does not look happy to see me and I don't blame her.It’s not every day I go out and tell her I’ll be back home before she’s home from school but I end up coming back at 7p.mShe doesn’t even look at me when I call her name in the auditorium. She simply stops sparring with the young boy staring at her with dumbfounded eyes.He should be her age from the build of him. Still has scraggly hair and round shoulders, but it doesn’t take much time for werewolf pups to mature.I’m pretty sure I'm missing out on exactly that with Maya.We’re in the room when she finally looks at me but it’s with hard eyes. It hurts her not to speak to me, she doesn’t want to do that but she feels she has to.She hands me a ribbon. purple and new and she turns around walking off to the dresser and sitting on it. Her leg taps on the floor impatiently.I smirk before getting up and walking over to her. Maya looks like she could eat me alive when she sees that smirk on my face but it doesn’t take l

Scarlett's pov He was avoiding me.The knowledge of that hits me with a dull thud in my chest.Whatever was bothering him last night is still bothering him and for some reason, I have something to do with it.I tuck away those feelings and keep a blank look on my face.That’s okay.If he wants to avoid me then he should. Maybe he feels I'm devious now or dangerous since I formulated a plan to manipulate Alphas into leaning toward him for support.Was that bad though?We have an aim to achieve and the Alpha conference isn’t so far away that we can afford to slack. I want to be free of Hunter, and the Ironclaw pack will do something no pack has ever done if they can help me achieve that.They would become a beacon of justice and uprightness. The other packs would feel comfortable affiliating themselves with his pack.This could change the influence of the Ironclaw pack forever……….. and maybe that scares him.“Good morning Scarlett.”I refuse to meet his gaze and hold open the door he w
