Scarlett's POV" Scarlett, come here." I heard Alpha Carlos's voice, making my heart leap in my chest."Is there something wrong with the food? Did I do something wrong?" Different thoughts crept into my head.I spun around and paced towards him with my heart beating rapidly in my chest that I thought it would soon bust." Who prepared this meal?" Alpha Carlos asked as he keenly looked at me as if he could see through me." Did he know that it was Felix who helped me out? But, there was nobody in the kitchen aside from Felix and I. How did he know?" I shook my head to clear all the thoughts that were crawling in my head as I thought of whether to tell him the truth or not." Are you deaf? Can't you speak or have the dogs cut your tongue?" His words jerked me out of my thoughts and I jumped in fear." Uhm... I prepared the meal myself." I responded, keeping my voice steady." Oh, I see," he said lazily as he returned his gaze to his food.I heaved a heavy sigh as I saw him eat the fo
Alpha Carlos POV I was shocked by their revelation. I could still remember how I was pacing forth and back in my room with fear while I was waiting for the pack doctor. I heard a knock on the door and I already knew that it was the doctor. I asked him to come without hesitation. " Good day, your Highness. You sounded urgent." The doctor greeted me with a bow as he stepped in with someone. " Yeah, it's very urgent. I don't know what happened to her. We were just talking when she suddenly felt nausea and she ran into the bathroom to vomit. As if that wasn't enough, she slumps." I explained in panic as I didn't want anything to happen to her, especially now that I was ready to mend things with her. I stood impatiently with my heart thumping in my chest as I watched the doctor move to her side on the bed and began to run some tests on her. He also checked her blood pressure and her heartbeat before whispering some words to his friend and he jotted it down on his Notepad. " How is sh
Alpha Carlos POV Who could have thought that she was a hook-up girl? She even has the temerity to get pregnant in the process and she thought all she could do was to pin the pregnancy on me? She doesn't know what she has brought upon herself. I'm going to make her life miserable for her. I know it's going to take me some time before I get over her but I won't allow myself to be deceived by her pitiful face again. "Good day, your Highness." Philip's voice jolted me out of my thoughts. I nodded in response as I turned around and my gaze fell on him as he walked in with a serious face. " The rogue at the dungeon has refused to confess about who sent him even after the torture we gave him," he informed, gazing down at his leg. My eyes darkened as soon as I heard him and the memory of how I was attacked by them kept flowing on my head. " He has refused to speak?" I asked, my anger boiling over. " Yes, Your Highness," he answered with a frowning face." Take me there," I ordered. "I
Scarlett's POV" You are asked to do something and you are here gossiping? Is that what you are asked to do?" Leah asked as she strolled into the kitchen with a frown, holding a tray in her hand." We weren't gossiping," Ella retorted with anger in her tone." You weren't gossiping with this thing? " she asked, looking at me from head to my toes. I felt a pang in my chest as I became breathless with anger. " Don't refer to me as 'this thing' again," I warned through gritted teeth. She looked at me with disgust before stepping closer to me with a frown on her face." What would you do if I did? Have you forgotten that I'm the head maid here? As long as you are here, I will talk to you anyhow because you are under me." she, rolling her eyes." You should....." I was cut off by Leah who poked me with her shoulder and shook her head at me, indicating that I shouldn't say anything.I clenched my hands and gritted my teeth to calm myself as I forced myself to keep quiet.She moved to the
Scarlett's POVI saw Jane, eating in the dining room, I think she was done eating because I saw her wiping her mouth. I tightened my grip on the food in my hand as I felt my hands slightly tremble when I stepped closer to her. I greeted her, bowing my head slightly before placing the food on the table. She looked at the food with disgust before pushing it away with her finger as if it were filth. " Take this disgusting thing out of my sight. I have taken a better thing." She said, looking at me with disdain. I stayed rooted to the ground as my body slightly trembled. I couldn't believe that Jane made me go through the stress of making another meal when she knew that she wouldn't eat it." Why did you make me prepare this if you knew you wouldn't eat it?" I asked, my voice cracking with pain." Are you complaining?" she asked, anger evident in her tone. My heart weighed heavy in my chest. I didn't know what to say, I was exhausted.I began to pack the meal and she pushed the wine
Felix POVI was in my room when my thoughts went to Scarlett. I haven't asked her if the Alpha likes the meal that we prepared together.Thinking about how we both stayed in the kitchen and prepared the meal makes me smile. We look like a couple who can not do without each other.I was glad that she asked for my help and I was happy that I was able to convince some of the maids to let me into the kitchen using the crush they had on me to my advantage. The feelings of having her around me was overwhelming. I can't explain how I feel whenever I'm with her. She's so beautiful and fun to be with. I doubt if she was the Alpha's true mate because I don't understand why he hated her so much. Ah! I wish I could hear mine.I tried to mind-link Scarlett to ask her about the meal but it wasn't connecting which made me panic in fear. Did the Alpha find out that I helped her to prepare the meal and he punished her? Did Jane do something to her? I panic at the thought of her being punished be
Felix POV I turned around and my heart skipped a beat when my gaze fell on her beautiful skin. She was putting on her gown and struggling with the zip. My heart was thumping in my chest when I decided to help her with her zip. My wolf was howling, threatening to come out but I tried my best to keep him under control. I stepped closer to her and held her hands that were struggling with the zip. I felt an electric jolt as soon as my hands came in contact with her skin, making my heartbeat increase by speed.I felt her body stiffen and she spun around immediately, looking at me with surprise. " Let me help you out with this," my voice came in a whisper as my heart was pounding in my chest, making breathing a bit difficult for me. A woman has never had an effect on me like this before, the feeling was electrifying and I think she felt it too because she was slightly trembling when she felt my hands on her skin. " Thanks," She whispered and I smiled to myself when I felt her heart b
Felix's POVI couldn't believe that Ella could still come looking for me in the castle after what I did to her.Ella was my childhood friend. The daughter of my father's best friend and a princess.She's beautiful, quiet, and kind just like Scarlett.We were so close that our parents started calling us a couple. I never took their words to heart because I was not romantically attracted to her. I took her like the sister I never had. She was the only woman that I allowed to get close to me because everyone knew that I hated it when a woman came close to me. She mistook our closeness as love. She thought that I was in love with her because of the way I treated her nicely and allowed her to get close to me.She confessed her love for me on the day of her birthday but I rejected her after telling her that she was just like a sister to me and she shouldn't start getting funny ideas in her head. I never knew that it was something serious until the day my father introduced her to the pack
