LukeAfter Maria left the room reluctantly, I looked at Scarlett who was now sleeping peacefully while her head was resting on my chest. From her face, she looked content and at ease.I sighed, closing my eyes as I was thinking of a way to let them meet. Hunter growled at me suddenly at my thoughts." Don't make this difficult for me," I said to him. He didn't reply to me and went silent.I looked at her again as I possessively wrapped my arm around her shoulder. I don't why I am feeling like she belongs to me." To us," Hunter growled, this time it sounded possessive and angry. I didn't respond to him.I placed Scarlett gently on the bed making sure not to wake her up, I placed a pillow under her head and she stirred a bit before going back to sleep again. I need her to be fully recovered before I search for my answers." Alpha, you need to see this," Alex said through the mind link." I will be there," I said to him.I got up from the bed and walked towards the door. I stopped at th
ScarlettI woke and stirred on the soft mattress I was lying on feeling fresh after a long time. I opened my eyes and looked around the room. The room was empty and the light was dimmed.Then I remembered that I was talking to the Greek god before I fell asleep, a blush made its way to my cheek as I bit my lower lips in embarrassment. I had never talked to any boy in my 17 years of life like this.I looked around the room for the first time since I woke up. The room was luxurious enough to make anyone know that whoever was the owner, he must be super rich.I looked at the machinery that was attached to my body earlier and was nowhere to be seen.I started to get up from bed and walked towards the door dragging my sore body. I hope I can find someone who can help me find alpha. I need to talk to him. I can't stay here for a long time knowing that my father isn't safe.I swung the door open and peeked outside. I found the hallway was empty. I decided to go anyway, thinking I would find
ScarlettSo many things were playing endlessly in my head as I saw his retreating figure until he vanished completely." Scarlett?" I was pulled out of my chain of thoughts as my father called my name and shook me by my arm." Huh?"" We need to get away from here," he said to me, looking at my eyes." Why?" I asked him in confusion." Why? Why? You are asking me why? Can't you see?" He said in a serious tone. I looked at him in confusion. Why is he acting this way when Luke is the one that saved me and him?" I don't understand," I said, looking at him." He is the reason why we are stuck here and he is the person that wants to kill me," he said through gritted teeth." What?" I said in disbelief. I stared at my father blankly as his words rang in my ears." How?" I breathed out. Unable to believe what my father said. How could he act so innocently? That is the reason why he said he would help me to find my father." Scarlett," my father called my name, taking me out of my thoughts a

Scarlett" Ummm," I groaned in a throbbing pain in my shoulder. I felt like someone had ripped my arm from its sockets ." You are awake," I heard Maria say while looking at her tablet." Don't try to sit up yet, I need to know you are functioning well before you do that," she said, looking at me with a warm smile and concern full of eyes. I nodded and laid on the bed. She turned around to grab something from the table. I averted my gaze and looked at the ceiling. All the events flashed before my eyes, making me inhale a sharp intake of breath.The last thing I remember was I heard the conversation of the man that I called father all these years. I closed my eyes to calm myself down." Where is he?" I asked in a whisper." Huh?" Maria turned around to look at me." I wasn't there when those stupid things happened. I am sorry for what you have been through," she said, with sadness and concern." Where is he?" I repeated again." When we reached the pack house your father had already le
ScarlettSoon we are out of the house, or should I say mansion. I kept quiet, and didn't want to provoke him any further. After sometime, I felt the atmosphere change suddenly, making me look up to see the black orbs from earlier were now changed into the beautiful blue ones. I gulped in fear, as nervousness washed over me. How will I ever escape him? What is he? How can he change the colour of his eyes? My mind was spinning from all the unanswered questions. I was pulled out of my thoughts when he spoke." They are not going to hurt you," he said, walking into the forest." But you will," I murmured in a low voice." Never ever say that again," he said through clenched teeth without sparing me a glance. I gulped at the threat behind his words and stayed quiet. He didn't say another word .I watched as we passed through the rows and rows of trees standing tall in all their glory. I found these trees are as mysterious as the man that is carrying me in his arms." I hope you are ready b
LukeI walked towards the pack house with Scarlett on my shoulder. I know in my heart that I shouldn't act like this with a human girl, but the one in my head is messing everything up and I can't blame him alone that in some part of my heart I wanted her too. I wanted her to see the real me without judging. It sounds silly, but it would be too good to be true for a human to let them know our identity without them hating us.I still can't shake off the image of her being ripped off into pieces by that rogue.I fought every fibre of my being not to think dirty, but my wolf was feeding me with the images of how she would look under my body. My palm itches to grab her as* It looks delicious. I shook my head to clear my thoughts. Within a few minutes, I reached the pack house.Questions me as soon as I set my foot inside the pack house. I narrowed my eyes at them as a growl emanated from my chest. They all went silent and dozens of pairs of eyes set on me, but I could feel that they were e
LukeI stormed into my office and slammed the door shut behind me. I felt like pulling my hair out. Shi*t, i cursed myself. I have never been this crazy for a girl. A girl, not a woman. She isn't even 18 yet.A knock on my door made me calm down a bit." Come in," I said, leaning back into my chair." Alpha," Alex said as he walked in." The elder is here," he informed. I sighed, thinking that maybe he would be able to tell me what was happening to me." Are you okay?" He asked, cautiously gauging my reaction. He wanted to know that I am Luke and not a hunter who is always ready to rip heads off people." I don't know Alex. Everything was fine until she arrived and now my brain, my heart, everything is so messed up," I said with a sigh." Like, I don't know if I should say this or not, but maybe just maybe, what would you do if she was your mate?" he said." She is a human Alex," I said." But the connection I feel with her is something really special. My words would not justify my fe
