*Scarlett's POV*After storming out of the training center, I let my feet lead me. I had no idea where I was going, neither was I paying attention, my head was full of thoughts. By the time I realized, I was already deep in the woods. I looked around me and sighed. My feet had subconsciously led me to the path that led up to the waterfall Atlas had shown me before. I sighed and looked behind me before glancing back at the path in front of me. Seeing no other choice and feeling pretty frustrated, I walked up the path, headed towards the waterfall. I soon reached the waterfall and stopped at the bank of the small lake. I watched the waterfall, my mind wandering.Suddenly I felt a pair of hands grab me from behind and I gasped. I gripped the hand firmly, twisted it while spinning around swiftly at the same time so see who had crept up on me.I was surprised to see Atlene."Ow ow ow, it hurts, please let go", he cried out."What the f*ck do you think you are doing?!", I asked angrily as I
*Annabel's POV*"Ah ah, Luke, faster, harder", I moaned loudly as Luke thrust into me."Oh My God, just like that baby, that feels so good. Yeah....", I urged him on and he accelerated his thrusts."Oh, how I love you baby. I love you. I love you", I repeated as we both neared our climax."Ah", I breathed out a contented sigh as Luke laid down on the bed next to me."That was amazing my love", I told him and he smiled.I smiled back and got up from the bed. I headed towards the table that held a jug of water and poured myself a glass.As I sipped from the glass, Luke began to speak."What is this Alpha doing by the way? Why hasn't he made a move against Scarlett yet?", he asked."Patience my love. This Alpha isn't like that foolish Star Moon Pack Alpha. He is biding his time, laying down his plans. He doesn't want to fail like that Alpha did so he is taking his time to plan things", I assured him."So that when he does strike, it will be the destruction of Scarlett""I hope so", Luke
Scarlett's POVI stared at the flowers at for some time before glancing back at Atlene."You're giving me black roses?", I asked him."Why? Have I become that unbearable that you would wish me death by giving me these roses?", I asked him and he looked startled."Wh...what do you mean?", he stuttered."I should be the one asking what you mean by giving me these black roses?", I pointed out coldly, secretly enjoying the look of dismay on his face."I...I just wanted to give you flowers...and I thought you wouldn't appreciate or like it if I gave you regular flowers so I decided to give you black roses. After all you seem to have developed an interest in the color black recently", he explained quickly nodding at the all black outfit I was currently putting on."But if you don't like them, I'll take them back", he quickly said."No need", I immediately told him and he paused looking at me, surprised."What?""I said no need", I repeated."I'll take them", I told him and stretched out my
Atlene's POV"Tell me something brother, why are you so bothered with whether or not I think Scarlett has feelings for me?", I asked Atlas."Tell me, are you jealous, huh? Is that it?", I asked with a smirk."Jealous?", he asked back."Oh please, what is there to be jealous of?", he scoffed."Oh ok", I agreed sarcastically with a smirk."She's just playing with you!", he suddenly yelled at me."Oh, ok, whatever you say", I told him and walked back to resume hitting the punching bag.I had no intentions of listening to what my brother had to say or let it get to me."You really are stupid", he said all of a sudden. I could hear the anger in his voice but I continued to ignore him."But then again....", he continued."You must be so stupid in love with her seeing as you are so desperate for her despite the fact that she is your brother's mate", he told me."What did you just say?", I asked him.I couldn't believe that Atlas was doing this. Hadn't he been the one who had promised to let
Luke's POV Knock knock Someone on the door. "Oh o, who the f*ck could it be by this time of the morning?", Annabel grumbled beside me on the bed. "Let's just ignore them, then they'll go away, whoever they are", she suggested as she rolled over and wrapped her arms around me. I nodded in agreement but the knocks persisted. "Agh!!", Annabel groaned. "Whoever they are they better have a good reason for this", she muttered under her breath as she got off the bed. She grabbed her coat and put it on before walking over to open the door. "Yes, what the f*ck do you want?!", Annabel asked angrily as she opened the door. There was a servant girl standing at the doorway with her head bowed. "I'm...I'm sorry to have disturbed you", the servant girl apologized trembling, no doubt she was scared by the way Annabel was glaring at her. "You're sorry?", Annabel asked slowly, a menace in her tone. "That means you know that you shouldn't have done it, so why did you do it?", she asked. "I..
Atlas' POVI sat down on the chair in my room and sighed. My mind kept flashing back to Scarlett. I remembered how she had rushed in to stop me just as I was about to hit Atlene. How she immediately told me to let him go and how she gave the order for the Pack nurse to attend to his injuries first. I glanced at my reflection in the mirror. Actually I didn't need the Pack nurse to attend to me, my injuries were already beginning to heal up on their own. But Scarlett didn't know that and as that the time she gave the order, I was probably in as bad a shape as Atlene was but she gave the order that the nurse attended to him first. Ok, maybe Atlene had suffered worse injuries than I had from the fight after all I was stronger but still, I had suffered injuries as well, plus I was her mate so why had she put so much importance on Atlene?'Was it possible that she really did have feelings for Atlene?', I couldn't help but wonder.I immediately shook my head when I realized what I was thinki
Atlene's POV I laid on the bed in my room, trying not to toss lest it made my injuries hurt even more. But it was easier said than done. I was anxious and nervous and he was becoming incredibly hard for me to lie still like Pack nurse had ordered. I kept listening, glancing at the door, waiting for Scarlett to come in and see me. It was an unrealistic to be waiting for I knew but I couldn't help it. After all, she did order the Pack nurse to attend to my wounds first, surely that must count for something or show that she might care for me at least a bit. I smiled when I remembered how Scarlett had intervened just when Atlas was about to land me a blow. From my point of view as a fighter and if I was to he completely honest with myself, if Atlas' punch had actually made contact with me, I would have been seriously hurt and probably be in a worse shape than I was right now. So why then did I have to go and pick a fight with my brother when I knew he was much stronger than me? I knew I
Atlas' POV I was so stupefied by what Atlene said that I couldn't find the words to reply him immediately. Instead I just stood there staring at him. Atlene looked determined. I could tell that he really wasn't planning on letting Scarlett go. "Rest well brother", I told him before getting up from the bed and leaving the room. I didn't know what else to say to him. There was nothing else I could say. Not to his declaration of love for Scarlett or to his accusations that I couldn't actually let her go. Because some part of me knew that he was right. I couldn't just let go of Scarlett. And whenever the thought that she probably had feelings for Atlene crossed my mind, it hurt me, I had to admit. As I walked into the courtyard of the mansion, my mind filled with thoughts, someone suddenly called out my name. "Atlas!", a female voice called out. I turned around to see Ruby running towards me. I narrowed my eyes at her. 'What the f*ck is she doing here?', I wondered. "Atlas! Oh ther
