The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 33: Having a Heart
***Bryan*** I don’t need to…no I need to. These rants kept on ticking in my head, like a clock. I watched Evans and the others leave the forest. I shifted and picked up my phone to call Max. He answered on the first ring. “What’s up? How did it go?” “I need your help, Max.” “Wait a minute. Were you caught?” he asked. “That’s not it. I couldn’t go through with the plan. Something came up.” I answered impatiently. “Max I need you to come toward the Port. The untarred short cut that leads to the port. I'll be waiting. And please bring some shovels and drag Adam here too.” “What’s going on? Why would you want shovels and Adam?” “Max, save the questions for later. Please tell Adams to get his antidote bag. He shouldn’t leave any antidote behind.” “Ok. We’ll be there in twenty minutes.” “No!” I yelled. “Please be here as fast as you can. She only has about twenty-five more minutes.” I looked at the time on my screen. “Who is—” “Max. Damn it!” I yelled, stoping him from asking mo
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 34: The Proposition
***Scarlett*** I coughed up some more. The sudden rush of air into my lungs gave my body a jolt making my chest ache even more. I felt like I was being electrocuted back to life. Powerful hands kept me from collapsing. I still felt dizzy and my throat was so dry. The feeling of the cool breeze on my skin was soothing. I opened my eyes gently. Three men stared at me. They were all on their knees. One of them was naked. My eyes widened. Their eyes narrowed. It was like they had seen something growing out of my head. I recognized one of the faces. The naked one. “Bryan…is that you?” My body’s function wasn’t fully back, so I couldn’t pick his scent yet. He nodded. “Are you okay?” “Yes, I am.” I looked at the other two guys. They were strangers, although one of them was looking at me in a weird way. I think I’ve met him recently. I slowly took in the nature of my surrounding. A big hole was right in front of me. I whimpered. “What happened here? Bryan how are we here? And where are
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 35: Soft Spot
***Bryan*** “I’m not interested,” I blurted out. It was a very mouthwatering offer. But I’m not crazy to take her to my pack. The only person that may not tear to pieces was her friend Lois. Lois strongly believed that Scarlett's pack are innocent. She held onto my clothes tightly. “Please…I know you want to take him down for what he did to you.” she sobbed, her hands shaking. “I want to crush him. Wreck him until he wishes he were dead.” “What you’re asking for is suicide," I whispered. "My pack would capture and hang you the moment they set eyes on you. Max here alrady wants to skin you alive.” “I know but that’s my best bet.” Droplets of tears made way to the ground. I couldn’t resist feeling sorry for her. There was something that was pulling me towards Scarlett despite knowing who she really was. It was impossible to hate her no matter how I tried. I was only acting like I did, but that wasn’t what I truly felt inside. “I want to remain dead to Evans,” she revealed. “How
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 36: The Drunk Man
***Scarlett*** Bryan stormed out of the room before I could stop him. What the hell was that? I felt hot and my legs were like noodles. I was still trying to catch my breath. I shook my head, pulling myself out of the momentary daze. His lips were fire. The man could kiss. It wasn’t the soft innocent kiss he gave me twelve years ago. It was filled with a lot of things I couldn’t decipher completely. I felt anger, lust, desire and a lot in this kiss. why did he apologise. It's not like I didn't want him to kiss me. I had responded with the same energy. I looked around the room. It was a small room that contained the essentials. A neat bed. A door to my left which I unlocked was the bathroom, looking nice and clean. What I needed the most after being dug out of that freaking hole is a hot bath. I locked the door with the keys Bryan had given me, undressed and got into the shower. As I lathered my hair with shampoo and my body with a nice soap, I sighed, my mind drifting to
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 37: The Common Enemy
***Bryan*** The receptionist told me Scarlett hadn’t stepped out since we booked in. She’s a nice woman who had agreed to carry out some favors for me. I asked her to make sure Scarlett got what she needs. Gave her some money to help get Scarlett some clothes too. Now, I was shocked, seeing how Scarlett gripped a man while he held on to her shoulder. I felt like walking over to them yanking her away from him. She didn’t know who this man was and he was drunk. How could she be so careless? I was about to shut the door in his face, when he muttered. “You’ve… changed. But ...I can smell you, Bryan Haaland.” My heart dropped to my stomach. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.” I was quick to recover from the shock because few seconds after spewing that nonsense from his mouth, I shut the door. No one other than Alpha Westby and Max knew that I'm Bryan Haaland. Who was he? And how did he know that? Lois was staring at the door. “What did that man just say? He called you Br
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 38: Striking Back
***Scarlett*** If I’m going to lose everything in the process of fighting Evans, I’m willing to drag him down to the end. He crushed me. I will strike him back when he least expects it and in the worst way possible. I swear it! I clenched my hands into fist. “I’m going to make sure that he suffers. I’ll begin with retrieving the document from the house.” “Where did you hide it?” Bryan asked. “Evans and Dina searched your father’s safe that night but they couldn’t find anything. He said he was going to check the house again.” “I hid it in my room.” “The same room where Evans held you captive?" His brow arched. He looked surprised. "You mean it was in there and they couldn’t find it?” Bryan couldn't hide his disbelief. “That’s because I hid it where he wouldn't think much of. In the ceiling.” “Why did you take it out of the safe?"he asked. "Does that mean you’ve always suspected that Evans was after your money and would one day want to have it?” I shook my head. “
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 39: The Dinner
***Bryan*** Scarlett moved to Lois’ apartment. The plan is for her to be in a safe place until the storm settles. No one is supposed to know she’s alive. If Evans get an idea that Scarlett isn’t dead, then we might never be able to get our revenge. I’ve been observing Scarlett lately. The way she stares at me. It’s different. I know she feels drawn to me too. I always sense her happy wolf at the surface. However, I’m concerned because I can smell her anxiety as well. It’s like she wants to tell me something but she is holding back. I might not have been able to control my desire with Scarlett even after what her father did or her husband, Evans. I tried to but I find myself wanting her more. She was only unfortunate to have Alpha Ashley Anderson as her father. I was blinded by rage, it's why I wanted to get her laid and kill her after. The night I brought her to the hotel, at some point I stopped to asked myself if Scarlett deserve to suffer for what her father did. We had an a
The Crushed Mate Who Struck Back Chapter 40: Hard Decision
***Bryan*** “Where are you off to with a moody look?” I hadn’t seen Jensen coming in the opposite direction. He was probably going to see Alpha Westby to give his reports. I sighed, brushing my hair aggressively with my hands. “I’ve been put on a tightrope.” “Excuse me.” Jensen crossed his arm and glared at me. “How difficult is this situation of yours? You look like you’re about to drop dead.” “Maybe I might drop dead.” “Hey, you are keeping me in suspense,” Jensen muttered. “Alpha Westby and the Luna want me to get married to Ingrid. She will be my Luna when I become Alpha.” “Oh…that’s good news if you ask me.” I scowled. “How is that good news? As the Beta of this pack I understand how a union between mates should be good news to you. But asides that I don’t see how this is anything good.” Jensen rubbed his palms and leaned forward. “Ingrid is a very beautiful woman.” “Obviously! Should that make me happy enough to get married to her?” “Well, I know so many g
