Klaus “Why? How can you think that?” I made her look into my eyes. My heart was dousing into the hot burning lava. Why wouldn’t she tell me that she loved me? My marriage had become the bitter truth of my life that hurt me every day. The pain was too much to endure, I didn't marry Amber with my will. “I’m not your wife, she is your wife so she can have…” her words remained in her mouth but her thoughts completed it and it fucking hurt when she could think about me being in another woman’s bed. I cupped her cheeks before engulfing her in a tight embrace. “You can’t see me with someone else so how can you expect me to be cool with it? Sometimes I feel like I’m an obstacle in your life, if I wouldn’t have been your mate, you would have been living happily with your wife,” she muttered in a low tone while wrapping her hands tightly around my hips. Kneading her back and hair gently in soothing strokes, I listened to her and giggled a little which earned me a punch in my stomach fr
Scarlett What’s torture? Loving someone more than your soul and body could afford, with whom you can’t be. When I heard Amber calling my mate her husband, my blood boiled and the veins in my body twisted in discomfort. Something in me wanted to grab her throat and shred that pretty face of hers till she wouldn’t be able to open that vulgar mouth of hers ever. She wasn’t wrong either, I knew it. I didn’t need to know it from someone else but I couldn’t help the feeling of jealousy and hating her though it wasn’t her mistake. It was a forced marriage for both of them but my mate wasn’t roaming around calling her his wife and being possessive about her. I might not be a princess or a queen but I wasn’t used to sharing my things with the others, then, it was my mate. How could they even expect me to share my mate with someone else? “Fucking mine,” I whispered before gnawing my mark on his neck harshly, dodging all my anger on him. I could hear some shattered voices from the outside b
KlausAmber was behaving like a kid who wanted something impossible to have. I wanted to explain everything to her but it wasn’t the right time to have that conversation when my mate was in heat and she needed me the most.“Stop, Amber. Fucking leave, right now,” I had to bawl when she took a few steps closer to me, gaping deeply into my eyes. Her icy blue eyes turned scarlet red as her lips moved slowly, chanting something which somehow made me feel nauseous and uncomfortable.I wanted to run away from there. Todd didn’t utter a single word as always, his silence bothered me which signaled that something was off with him. I couldn’t feel the connection with Todd.My heart wanted to disappear but my legs denied to follow my heart’s desire. Amber laid her hands on my shoulder, drawing circles on my chest with her fingers. My stomach churned under her touch, it wasn’t an excitement unlike I felt when I was with Scarlett. It was a disgusting feeling. I wanted to push her away but she hel
Scarlett My body seemed to surface on the ice as I felt my consciousness knocking in and opened my eyes to locate myself lying on the floor. My eyes darted over the room to find my mate who had promised not to leave me alone during my heat. It would be an understatement to say that my world crumbled down when I found his wife sleeping peacefully, resting her head on Klaus’s chest. She didn’t even bother to cover her bare chest, the way their chests brushed against each other reminded me of my moment with Klaus and all I could feel was anguish. Probably I had my head just like this on his chest. This scene showed me the reality of how replaceable I was in his life. He could have his wife in his bed and it wouldn’t even be counted as cheating on me because I wasn’t his wife. The roles got reversed when I was in Amber’s place. Everyone was calling me whore but the same people wouldn’t call Amber a slut for sleeping with my mate whom I had already marked and with whom I had mated. Ho
Klaus “How the fuck did you get here?” The words flooded out of my mouth as soon as I woke up with a smile on my face, assuming Scarlett was on my chest but it was Amber. I jerked her off my body and stood straight out of my bed, snatching the sheet to cover my lower body. Lowering her head, she grabbed another sheet and covered her chest before sitting on the bed. “Don’t you remember what happened in the morning?” Goddess. I roamed my eyes over the window to see the light sun glimmers seeping into the room, making it substantiated that it was an evening now. “I wouldn’t have asked you if I would have recollected,” I rolled my eyes, looking at the wall. Why was she so dumb? “What happened?” I repeated in a grim tone, scratching the back of my neck. “Please, don’t lie. How can you forget such beautiful moments for us?” She stood in front of me and my eyes accidentally fell on her shoulder which was bruised. Heaving a distraught sigh, I stole her gaze, praying that whatever she was g
Scarlett The sunshine fell on my face, waking me up which seemed like the toughest task. It was too much for me to even move my hand, let alone wake up from the bed. I wanted to stretch my hands and yawn to shoo away all the laziness and tiredness but didn’t have enough energy to do so. Though I tried to move my body to sit on the bed which caused my back to ache unbearably. How could I become this weak suddenly? My eyes wandered around the room to find where I was and I heaved a breath of relaxation when I found it was my room in Rachel’s house. I recalled the incidents of the past which made me gasp and tears crept through my cheeks. My mom and Layla had given me the herbs which suppressed my heat besides my protesting and I lost consciousness after that. “Honey,” Rachel exclaimed before running over to me and hugging me affectionately. “You’re finally awake,” she whispered and I realized that I was naked beneath the sheets which made me wonder if Klaus came to me when I was pa
Klaus There was no training in the pack, no talk with anyone since I fucked up my life. Marcus had warned me to stay away from Scarlett and honestly, I didn’t care about his threats. Still, I went to see Scarlett but her mom didn't even let me enter the house. Layla threw me disdainful glances when I tried to prove my innocence, I didn’t do it deliberately. I didn’t even remember anything and since that day, Todd had probably shunned me out. I tried to connect with him and send a message through mind-link to Scarlett but I couldn’t. I couldn't feel the mind-link with her working anymore. My father had asked me to let her go so she could be happy with Marcus or someone else and won’t get hurt because of me which seemed right because I never made her happy. I kept hurting her since the day I found out that she was my mate. She deserves someone better who could keep her happy, who could fight for her, who wouldn’t bring her a messy life like mine. “Klaus,” Jenny stepped into my room c
Scarlett Seeing him in pain hurt me but he didn't get hurt when he was fucking his wife. I suffered through that pain because he couldn't resist his pretty Alpha wife. He turned his face to the wall when I caught his eyes glistening with moisture. All I wanted to do was to cup his face and kiss him hard on his lips though he was the reason for my pain. "I'm alive because of you, Scarlett," he spoke in a shaking voice before turning back to me while I got dressed back. "Do you regret saving my life?" My heart couldn't imagine a world where Klaus didn't exist. Yes, he hurt me in the worst way but I didn't want him dead. I wanted him alive even if in someone else's arms. "I regret believing your words. I regret being marked by you. I regret being mated with you. I regret falling for…" unspoken words remained in my mouth. He didn't deserve to know the truth. "Leave the fucking room, Klaus Nelson," I shouted out in fury, not being able to hold back my tears. "Leave me alone just
