“The hate is real out there. For long, the women here have waited for the lycan to desire them even if it was just as his plaything. The Alpha had been cold ever since the mysterious death of his mate and his father. You unlocked a new side of him and it seems the girls don't like it that much,” Ava explained. Scarlett smiled and said nothing. Ava frowned. “You are smiling? You don't know how scary lycan girls can be especially when they are obsessed with a man.”“I know. I almost lost my life so I know that more than anyone.”“So, will you still continue to endanger yourself and attract girls like them to yourself by seeing the alpha?”Endanger herself? If anything, the presence of Asher saved her. “I can talk to my father to make the alpha stop asking for you. My father is powerful around here,” Ava offered. Scarlett smiled and politely rejected her offer. “No. Thank you but I wouldn't want you to bother yourself about it.”“My dear, I'm just trying to help. The Alpha may seem
Ethan levelled up with Asher. “What are you going to do?”“Get married and have a Luna of course,” Asher answered. If it was his marriage they wanted then he would give it to them. “Marry? Who will you marry? You are not even courting anyone at the moment. Or are you planning on marrying just anyone? You should already know the plans of the elders…”Asher screeched to a sudden stop forcing Ethan to equally halt. “Not just to anyone. To her. Scarlett.” Ethan's eyes widened. “You are going to marry her?”“Marry who?” A voice sounded behind them. Startled, the two Lycans looked but then relaxed at the sight of Lucas. “Get ready, you both. We have a wedding to prepare. I will be proposing to Scarlett tonight.”“Wait .. wait…Asher…” Ethan pulled him back. “Are you sure about all of this? Do you love her that much? See, I adore her too. She is amazing and brave and…but c'mon you just knew her and she is a wolf. You are very much aware of what making her your Luna entails right?” Ash
“Something for you,” Louisa said as she handed Scarlett a neatly folded paper. Scarlett blinked in surprise. “Note for me?” She then collected the paper wondering who had sent it. “Most definitely from your lover Alpha,” Louisa teased and headed over to the bed. Scarlett felt her heart skip. Quickly she tore the paper open. “The Alpha does not wish for you to come today. And until he says otherwise, he does not want you to show your face around his house.”In bold letters, the note read. Stiffening, Scarlett read and reread the note hoping that her eyes were wrong. Perhaps it was her hoping she had seen wrong. Louisa glanced at Scarlett's direction. Noticing the drastic change in her face, she asked, “What is it? Is something wrong?” “Nothing,” Scarlett mumbled as she squeezed the paper in her palms and started towards the washroom. It felt strange. Asher had refused to see her and it's been days and now he was banning her from showing her face in his house. Was something wron
“Asher…” Lucas came to an abrupt stop as if he had seen a ghost. Asher equally stopped. Following Lucas's gaze, his eyes landed on a figure he immediately recognized to belong to Scarlett. She was in the arms of a man. His legs slowed and finally rooted to the spot. Intense anger spurred Inside him as his fingers clenched. Almost at the same time, Scarlett left the arms of the man and looked behind her. She gasped in shock but as she made to go after Asher, Asher spun and marched off. Asher neither stopped nor casted another glance behind him as he stormed away. He arrived at the place where he had decorated to propose to Scarlett. For several seconds he stood staring down at the decorations and wine and flowers. “Urrgh” he groaned and overturned the mini table that had the wine and they all went shattering on the ground. He grabbed the blanket and flung. His fingers clasped together tightly as he panted. Was this why she refused to come see him? She was flirting around with me
SCARLETT Receiving a letter from Asher to stay away until he called for me wasn't supposed to mean so much but my insides said otherwise. As if something was wrong. Going to meet him seemed to be my only way of finding out what was wrong. One of the guards approached me when I entered the Alpha's compound. “Follow me,” the guard commanded. “To where?” I asked, confused. “There's someone that wants to see you,” the guard responded without sparing me a glance. I shrugged and followed him. Hopefully it might be Asher. But I was very surprised when the guard stopped before a man I had never seen or met before. “I'm sorry but do I know you?” I quickly asked, forcing my face and tone to stay as polite as I could muster. A big grin spread in the man's face revealing his coloured teeth. The stench emanating from him was enough to know he was drunk. And when he opened his mouth to speak, I was forced to squeeze my nose in disgust and had to restrain myself from puking. “Scarlett ri
“Oh, I'm sorry, Scarlett, I don't think you should go up there right now.”Scarlett Davis came to an abrupt halt at the foot of the stairs. A frown creased across her forehead as she casted a confusing look at her boyfriend’s sister, Saddy Campbell. Saddy was almost like a sister and heck she loved her but wasn't up for her games that moment. “Why? I have to see my boyfriend, your brother. Noah is up there, isn't he?” She looked past Saddy up the stairs. Legs itched her. She couldn't wait. Saddy lashes blinked but she said no words. Scarlett drew in a deep breath. Her patience was growing thin by the second. She tried to sidestep Saddy but Saddy was quick to stand in her way again. Another exasperated sigh. “What is wrong, Saddy? You need to get out of the way now. I can't keep Noah waiting.”“I don't think Noah wants to see you now, Scarlett,” Saddy blurted. Her lips tightened into a thin line. Scarlett’s eyes pinched. Saddy was always like this when she wanted something. “Ok
Scarlett felt several eyes on her as she curled herself into one of the seats in the bar. She ignored their dirty looks and continued to gulp down her drink. The night was cold and sad. Like her heart. Her throat burned at each gulp but her soul craved for more and her hands continued to pour. She was done crying. Now she was going to drink until her brains would blackout. “Look at her drinking herself to stupor.” She heard one of the girls in a table of three say. “Poor thing. I think I feel a little pity for her.”“Pfffftttt! I feel no pity for wretched bitches that don't know their place!” The first girl spat. “How dare she think she can get to be with the Alpha's son? A worthless Omega’s daughter marries the Alpha's son? Isn't that laughable?” The third girl cackled. “Fool. How she didn't know she was only being used. Noah is really smart. Worthless girls like her deserve endings like this one.”The other two laughed. “So, who is Noah's new bitch? Heard he is planning to mar
“You are very beautiful and even if your boyfriend really did break up with you today, you please my eyes. What do you say? Let's have some fun. Drinks on me.”A hiccup left Scarlet. She blinked. Before she could get a chance to refuse the strange yet tempting offer, the strange man was already walking into the club. She snapped back and after him, she ran. True, she could use some drinks. Her steps quickened as she tried to match his long stride. “Who are you and what is your name?” She asked again. He didn't stop nor said any word until they were inside the club. “Fuvk out of the way bitch!” A completely wasted guy barked at Scarlett as he growled past her. Tall man pulled her out of the way. “This way. You don't want them squeezing you in here,” he guided her out of the people packed hall towards a slightly wide and long corridor. A drunk man poked his head out of one of the rooms and began to puke. Tall man lifted his palm and covered her eyes, stopping her from seeing the
