Alpha Carlos POV I was so mad at Jane for inviting her mother into my palace without informing me. I knew that she was aware that her mother was coming even though she was lying. I went to my study room after I welcomed her mother. "Your Highness, why do you allow Jane's mother into the palace," Philip asked with a frown on his face. "I never knew that she was coming. Jane just informed me this morning." I replied through gritted teeth as I was still very angry about it. "Why would she do that without your consent?" He asked with a little bit of anger in his tone. "Well, she said that she didn't know that she was coming even though I knew that she was lying." " But, your Highness, I don't think it's right for you to keep Jane here since she's Scarlett's ...." "Shut up, Philip. Are you trying to question my decision?" I asked, cutting him off with anger. I don't know why he always tries to take sides with Scarlett, making me look like a bad person. What baffled me was that h
Felix's POV I left Scarlett's room at the servant quarters and was pacing towards the mage quarters when I heard some maids, whispering to themselves. Out of curiosity, I put a halt on my track and decided to listen to what they were saying. They were so engrossed in their gossip that they didn't notice my presence. " I heard that Luna Emily came into this palace today and she slapped Scarlett." One of the maids was telling her other two friends. "Really, What did she do?" The second one asked with surprise on her face. " I don't know but she was asked to prepare food for her after that." The first one responded. My face darkened with anger as I wondered who Luna Emily had slapped Scarlett. Did Alpha Carlos bring another woman? My anger was boiling over, I didn't know what to think anymore so, I decided to ask the maids. "Who is Luna Emily?" I asked coldly, startling them as I made my presence known. They trembled and greeted me nervously, avoiding my gaze. I was getting i
Scarlett POV I was overwhelmed when I realized that it was Felix who was massaging my body. Different thoughts run through my head, how did I end up in this dark place? What happened after I fainted? I decided to ask Felix about it and he told me to eat first before he told me everything I could feel that it was a dark room, maybe I had been sent here as a punishment but what did I do now wrong? It was Luna Emily who slapped me, causing me to faint. Why do I have to be punished for this? I blinked the tears away from my ears as I decided to hear from Felix. I couldn't see the face of the guard who brought food and water due to the darkness. I asked Felix and he told me that he was his friend. I panicked when Jeremy informed us that someone was coming. " Are you sure about that?" I asked in a daze as my whole body trembled in fear, while I winced in pain as I was trying to get up. " Sit down, You are still weak," Felix ordered me as he quietly stepped towards the door and pla
Alpha Carlos POVI was restless because of Scarlett, I can't forget the state she was in when she was being taken to the dark room.A pang of guilt washed over me. I know that I was angry at her and I wanted to punish her for what she did to me but I can't deny the fact that I still love her deeply, my heart aches whenever I see her going through pain. "I need to see if she's alright. Yes, I have to go and see her because I won't forgive myself if something bad should happen to her." I mumbled to myself as I left the room to the dark room where she was. My heart leaped in my chest when I saw the door was slightly open from afar. " Did something bad happen to her? Did she wake up and run away?" I asked myself in a daze as I hurried my pace towards the room with my guards. "If she ran away, I'm not going to forgive myself as well as Jane and her mother, I will make them to taste what is more than death," I murmured with anger. I swung the door open and stepped in hurriedly. The ro
Phillip's POV I came back from carrying out the Alpha's order. He asked me to investigate Alpha Ransfort and I discovered that he was not the only person trying to kill him but they were three who were trying to bring down Alpha Carlos so that Ransfort could take over as the wolf king. I tried to call Alpha Carlos but his number wasn't going through so I decided to go and see him in the palace. I was walking towards the Alpha's room when I heard some maids talking about how Luna Emily slapped Scarlett and she fainted before the alpha ordered that she should be taken to the darkroom as punishment. I felt my heart clenched with pain and my body vibrating with anger when I heard them. Strangely, my heart always aches in pain whenever I hear how Scarlett was being maltreated. There is this feeling I always feel in my heart that I can't explain. I'm not close with her, in fact, I only saw her twice, which was the day the alpha sent me to deliver his gift to her before their wedding a
Philip's POV I turned around and my gaze fell on a maid, holding a laundry basket. " Good morning, beta Phillips." she greeted with a bow, looking at Scarlett suspiciously with an evil grin tugged on her lips. " Morning, how are you doing?" I asked, my gaze still on Scarlett as I couldn't get enough of her. " I will be leaving for the office now, take care of yourself. I will come and see you when I get back." I said, trying to keep my wolf in control. " Excuse me beta Phillip," I heard the maid's voice as I was about to take my leave, "Let me introduce myself. My name is Ella, the only friend that Scarlett has around here." She introduced herself with her smile and I nodded before waving at Scarlett. I was riding to the office with different thoughts running through my head. I can't believe what just happened, I was happy when I finally found my mate after waiting and attending different mates bonding with seeing my mate only to be mated with my Alpha's mate. How can the moon
Scarlett's POVI was washing Alpha Carlos clothes with my hands that were hurting and some parts peeled off because of the constant washing of clothes with my bare hands and the use of detergent." Scarlett, where are you? I brought food for you in the darkroom and couldn't find you. I asked Jeremy and he told me that you were taken to the alpha. Are you alright? Did he hurt you?" I heard Felix's worried voice in my head. A smile crept on my face and my heart glowed with delight at the way he showed care and concern about me." He didn't hurt me. I'm fine." I said softly with a bitter smile on my face. " Are you sure? Why did he send for you then, anyways, I will come and see you in the evening. Take care of yourself for me okay and always remember that I care." he said and a drip of tears fell off my eyes. He's so caring and always knows how to put a smile on my face. I just wish Carlos was like him. I sighed a heavy sigh as I continued with my washing, " I had to finish this be
Scarlett's POV"Wait!" I heard Alpha Carlos's voice and my heart raced with fear."What have I done this time?" My heart pounded with fear as I slowly turned around and my gaze met with his eyes that were burning like fire."Leave us," he said, getting me confused with his gaze still on me.I stood still on the floor, not knowing if I should leave or not. " What are you still doing? He just said you should leave us, so leave!" Jane mocked me with disdain and my heart sank with pain."" No, I mean, you should leave us Jane." Alpha Carlos said coldly and I smiled inwardly when I saw the confusion and shame on Jane's face. She stood up with fury, her eyes shot deadly at me, ready to kill as she clenched her fist furiously before stomping her feet out of the room. My heart beat rapidly as I was left alone with Alpha Carlos.He raised his gaze at me, making our eyes interlock as he slowly stood up from his seat and inched closer to me, making my heart skip a bit as I felt a thousand but
