Scarlett's povI waved him goodbye and closed the door behind me. "Yes! Yes yes yes yes!" I screamed as I jumped for joy and punched the air. As I celebrated in my room, I toppled a ceramic vase. It fell and crashed on the floor. "Oops. That's my favourite vase," I whispered. I wasn't upset that I had broken it. The excitement I felt because of that wonderful kiss was too much. I couldn't believe that he actually liked me. We could be together. Heaving a sigh, I looked at the shattered pieces of ceramic lying on the marble floor. That has to be cleaned. I could take care of it later or ask one of the omegas for help. Although we were the leaders, my parents preferred that I cleaned up after myself. The omegas weren't our slaves - they would say.Anyway, I freshened up, changed my clothes, and slumped onto the bed. Still smiling like a fool, I hugged my bolster and stared at the white ceiling. "Iris," I spoke to my silent wolf. "I know you're in there. I have felt your presence mor
Gavin's povFuck! We were under attack! "Quick, hide in the safety bunkers!" "But…" "No, Star! If Iris is weak, you can't risk facing a bunch of untamed wolves. You must hide!" A look of determination crossed her face. "I'll take care of the pups and the old, but please, Gavin. Don't tell anyone about my wolf," she said Nodding my head, "yeah, I won't. And take care of the children and the old, I'm going to push them back into the wild."She heaved a breath. "Gavin… please be safe." My stiff shoulders softened. I cupped her cheeks and kissed her lips tenderly."I promise. I'll be careful," I whispered, caressing her soft skin with my thumb. "Now go! Secure every underground bunker." I urgently uttered and rushed out of the door. I raced straight towards the perimeters where several other warriors were sprinting alongside me. We shifted into our wolves on the way, tearing the clothes we were wearing, and raced at full speed. When we arrived, the warriors had lined up. I skidded
Scarlett's pov At first, I was glad to see that just a few had died. We didn't lose a lot of wolves in the battle. Still, it was a loss for us. Even one life was precious. Nonetheless, my world came crashing down when I spotted her lifeless body lying among our fallen warriors. Though the numbers were less, I had lost one of the most important people in my life. I touched her cheeks. They were cold. Tears continued to blur my vision. I could barely hold back my sniffles and sobs still, I wanted to spend the last moments with her. I couldn't help but think about the incidents of the past. I tried to rack my brain for the motive of this attack. Back then, mom and dad arrived at the luna ceremony. Everything was going smoothly until then. There weren't any rogue attacks. So what was this attack about? Besides, weren't rogues rabid loners who had cut ties with all forms of civilisation?"Mommy… I'm so sorry… I tried to save you all…" I whispered to her. I knew that she wouldn't hear m
Scarlett's pov We arrived at the dungeons before I could tell him anything so we decided to delay the 'talk' and went towards the cells. My dad and two other warriors were already there. In one of the cells one rogue was seated on a chair, his hands cuffed using silver shackles while the other rogue was watching the torture in the adjacent cell. The only piece of thing that covered their nudity was the inefficient piece of cloth tied on their waist. The crook was apparently beaten up. His hair dishevelled and his lips split. There were bruises on his skin which were gradually disappearing right before our eyes. It wasn't surprising. Werewolves were able to heal themselves pretty quickly and rogues were not an exception.The gate was unlocked so we stepped inside. I studied the captive's face, trying to jog my memory. Despite his weary appearance, he looked familiar. I was sure that I had seen that freckled face somewhere. I kept wondering if he was in any way related to Michael beca
Scarlett's povI was fuming. Dad didn't only let him take James away, but also recommended that I go out with him. And of course, being his annoying self, he had to tell my father that I had blocked his number. "Scarlett! Why would you block your own mate? How would you feel if I blocked your mom, or the vice versa? Unblock him now!"Michael was grinning triumphantly when my father scolded me about it. Regardless, I didn't unblock him. I was just done with him. I watched Michael leave with James. He was still shackled, but I didn't trust that jerk even a bit. To me, it was clear that he was planning to cover up the traitor and launch another attack. Perhaps they would be more aggressive in their attacks the next time around.Infuriated, I left the place. At least that proved to me that the attack was Michael's work. He had successfully killed my mom. Heavens knew what he would be after the next time he attacked. One question was left unanswered though. Why was he doing it? Why did
Scarlett's povDumbfounded, I stared at him for a long time. Iris' voice was clear although she still sounded vulnerable. Mate? Gavin was my mate? Could she have perceived it wrong? How could I have two mates? Yeah, I rejected Michael, and I believed that the bond was broken. Still, was it possible for me to get a second chance mate so soon? That was unheard of.I found it hard to believe but the tingles that erupted where my hand rested on his chest confirmed Iris' statement. Shocked by the strange tingles and by what my wolf uttered, I gingerly grazed his cheek. As soon as our skin touched, similar tingles erupted. they weren't substantial, but still… Was this what Gavin was talking about? I was his mate? My entire body relaxed. I waited for Iris to repeat it, but she didn't utter a word more. She was completely silent. Deepening the creases on my forehead, "mate?" I whispered. His hazel eyes widened. Tightening his grip on my body, he once again claimed my lips. This time, the k
Gavin's povSo that was why she read about the rebirth of a wolf. If she had really gone through all of that, it couldn't be a myth. She avoided my face the entire time she spoke but when she finally did look into my eyes, she went speechless. Her eyebrows knitted together and uncertainty filled her beautiful blue grey eyes. "Gavin. You've got to trust me… please." She whispered, pleading with her eyes. I scanned her face. Why wouldn't I trust her? She didn't have any motive to lie. I smiled and nodded my head. She seemed to be so concerned that I wouldn't believe her. "Of course I trust you. I know it sounds crazy, but it complies with the sudden changes I've been noticing," I told her. "You're my mate. If I can't trust my own soulmate, what am I doing?" She visibly relaxed and breathed out in relief. "Great. That's a relief." My smile faltered nonetheless. If what she told me was true, it meant that Michael was preparing something nasty. If he was getting ready to massacre this
Scarlett's pov-It is going to be fine, babe. Call me when you're done speaking to him. I'll be there.A little smile curled on my lips as I read a message from Gavin. He was so charming. If only I was mated to him from the beginning… I quickly finished my food, rushed towards my father's office, and knocked on the door. "Come in," he said. I heaved a breath, hoping that my erratic heart would calm down a bit. "Iris, be with me, girl," I whispered under my breath and opened the door. "Dad, you said that you wanted to talk," I told him. He looked up from the papers he was working on and nodded his head. "Yes. We do need to talk, don't we? Sit down, Scarlett." Trying my best to hide my apprehension, I closed the door behind me and sat down. He closed the files and placed both arms on the desk. Leaning forward against it, he looked at me like he was trying to read me. His face was contorted into a deep frown and I knew that I wasn't going to like this conversation at all."Okay, s
