Addicted To The Legacy Alpha Chapter 146: Ready, Set, Action!
ZEKE Marelyn being the nosy fiancée she is insisted I come here today. The action series I was meant to star in before everything blew over was still on hold. She thinks the director purposely waited this long for me to come back to my senses. I don't tell her, but in the film industry, time is money. A delay can be fatal to your shot at a big hit. With my hands in the pockets of my coat, I walk into Mr. Ivin's home after security lets me through. I've been here on one or two occasions. He's the most popular American producer alive. I have a large presence in New York City with Vanver Studios, but Ivin Montgomery is a veteran and the real deal. He's also a role model. When he offered me the role to star in his latest series, many have speculated that it would be a hit, I was honoured. I will count it as a huge loss if I don't gain it back today. I'm banking on the fact that Ivin fancies my ass. I cross a tile-lined pool that most of the urban glass houses on this cul-de-sac have.
Addicted To The Legacy Alpha Chapter 147: Seeing The Dead
I must be dreaming. Maybe I'm trapped in a trance. Scarlett Burns died two years ago. It's enough time to move on from the past, but this brings everything back like a crashing sea wave. This is impossible. She's impossible. "Who are you?" She shakes her head silently. I'm confused. It's like she can't speak. For a moment, she appears like a blank book. To my greatest surprise, it stays that way. She doesn't look like she remembers a damned thing about us. "Scarlett, if this is you... and you are playing some sick joke. End it now." I study her clothes. She also appears homeless. Her skirt doesn't hide much of her legs, but it's rumpled and has holes at its hem. The jacket she has on tells the same situation. I reach for her, but she steps back. Fear flashes in her eyes. She's in a dark alley with a stranger who doesn't seem to be relenting from his intention to keep her here. "I don't know any Scarlett, sir. You can ask someone else around," she says, wanting to continue dow
Addicted To The Legacy Alpha Chapter 148: Shadows and Skulls
ZEKEI stir on my desk at the sound of my cell ringing. I check the caller ID. It's Aiden. I yawn, settling against the back rest of the desk chair. I pick up the call, and the familiar voice of Moon Grove's beta answers me. Aiden says, "I found people at the neighbourhood you mentioned who attested to seeing her around.""And?" I wait patiently for the results. This can make or mar the facts already formed in my head. "She started coming around a week ago. Before then, they've never seen her. She is actually homeless."I rake a hand through my hair. Something must have happened. I never searched too well. Maybe it's all my fault she's suffered this much. I didn’t know she was alive."But there's something else.""Good or bad." I sigh, raking my hand through my hair. There's so much one can take in the space of hours."It's both. I traced her whereabouts before the neighbourhood. Scarlett was discharged from Queens Memorial Hospital. Her patient records state that she had acute memo
Addicted To The Legacy Alpha Chapter 149: Tuiren Sends A Message
I remember my mother's words to me before she passed at the shores. A darklord exists, who reigns terror in the earth with his army of the dead. Back then, it was a myth. It was a story to keep her cub's mind active. She enjoyed horror stories under a full moon and using the moon's reflection to create images with the shadows of her clawed hands. Hearing these words from Drusila, what used to be a moonlight tale for children was happening in reality. I don't believe it. She's wondering what's on my mind, but I need a moment to recollect my thoughts. I plop down on the desk chair, turning on the rollers beneath. "That's what he has become. You are completely sure you didn't make a mistake?" "I saw him move the shadows. I don't think the Celtic worked for him like it did for you and Zane." "There must be something that talks about a wolf who can control shadows." Drusila adds, frowning while deep in thought. I think of the one person who can answer that question. It's Tuiren or Jai-
Addicted To The Legacy Alpha Chapter 150: Breaking Point
************************** My eyes crack open. Daylight shines into my room, but I'm still stuck in last night's pack gathering. Zeke wanted a son who would challenge Zane's throne. A female Alpha will never be accepted to lead Carodia. I'm sad for other reasons than Scarlett. My happy ending keeps drifting far and far away. I wonder if he's angry with me. If this will change everything. Maybe he will finally realise that he won't gain anything from me because I can't even give him a proper heir. I will love our daughter with everything in me because she's a product of our great love. I take a shower, anxious about joining the rest downstairs. Will they see me as a failure? I couldn't protect the first heir, and now I've given them a child they can't accept. A while later, I cross Kyra and Aiden in the hallway, just above the stairs. She spares a broad smile, looking over her shoulder at me. "Hey, Mare! I can't wait to meet our princess."
Addicted To The Legacy Alpha Chapter 151: Edge of Paradise
MARE I see how worried he is. I'm not saying he shouldn't be, but it's another cold truth. She's his forever. I'm the intruder, and I have no place here. We are at the hospital. Scarlett lost her wolf. She's like a human, so I guess that's why we are all concerned because she can't heal. Kyra says, "How can she do this? Overdosing because she wants attention. Jeez." "We don't know that." Drusila chips in from across the waiting room. We are the only ones here at the moment, but it's a hospital people can arrive at any time. Unfortunately, Kyra seems pissed about spending her night here. Zeke is with the doctor. "I'm going to grab a snack." I stand on my feet without glancing at any of them. They still remember how I just cried my eyes out because Zeke made his choice. Now I'm sitting here watching him care for someone else like I wish was only just for me. It's still pure torture. Kyra joins me at the vending machine. I get a chocolate bar while she gets a bag of cheetos. At
Addicted To The Legacy Alpha Chapter 152: Finding A New Path
I've been showing up for appointments with the pack doctor at Blue Silver for the past two weeks since I arrived. He's not who I used to know, and his name is Xavier Scythe. When Ava refused to take me in because of our last encounter, Xavier showed Kyra and I a roof over our head. He is also the next catch as Kyra put it. She wants me to take on his advances and use him to forget all about Zeke. I try. I actually put in effort. He knocks at my door and I open it with a bright smile on my face. "Xavier, how are you?" His hands are locked behind him as he says, "I'm good. How are you?" Xavier runs a nervous hand over his sleeked back long black hair. It's tied up because of how impressively long his hair is. Xavier is a real catch. He's tall and looks hard all over, like a man should, but I don't get that spark from looking at him or anyone else that's not Zeke. Maybe Kyra is right. My world does revolve around only him. "The Blue Silver carnival is coming up. Would you like a p
Addicted To The Legacy Alpha Chapter 153: When The Enemy Returns
I don't realise that the doorknob has come off. I stare at the piece in my hand. It broke off, but my mind is fixed on their conversation. She's dating now. It's been just two weeks, and she promised that wasn't goodbye. My jaw clenches impossibly in anger. Finding a new path. Bullshit! I block out their voices and lock myself in my study. I throw my head back over the headrest of the desk chair, blowing out my cheeks. So far, the day has been terrible. I'm nervous. I want to storm into Carodia the next second and restructure the idiot fling's face. She's mine. She's fucking mine! The broken doorknob sits on my desk because I don't know what to do with it yet. Suddenly, my mind is made up. I stand on my feet and head to my bedroom. I open my suitcase on my bed, swiping clothes off the rack in the walk-in closet and dropping them inside it. It's easy not to overthink it. But soon, there's a knock on the open door, calling my attention. Scarlett is holding the broken doorknob, eyein
