LOGANI failed, woefully.I had one goal that night, to barge into Scarlett’s room and destroy the bond once and for all. I’d gone to great lengths for a solution to the growing bond between us because of one foolish impulsive decision of feeding on her.And I knew what was at stake; losing Ashley, yet I’d still screwed things up.The moment Scarlett’s fearful eyes met mine when she woke up, I already started to rethink my plan because of how shaken her distress made me. But I didn't move away because I remembered that I was doing it for Ashley.However, I hesitated for a moment because my wolf was clawing at my insides when I produced my fangs and the fear in her eyes worsened. That hesitation gave her an opening to fight back and she sunk her fangs into my skin, completely disorienting me as she ran out.Immediately, I dropped to my knees and bit down on my lower lip harshly to keep myself from groaning loudly in pain. I have a higher pain threshold than an alpha werewolf so her bit

LOGANA week of pursuing redemption was draining but worthwhile.Ashley was barely talking to me so every blessed day I had to think of new thoughtful gestures to apologize for the argument we had. On the other hand, I was on my best behavior at work and at home to show Scarlett that I was capable of change and my apology was real.I was yet to reap the fruits of both actions, but I held out hope that Ashley would be the first to acknowledge my sincerity from how much effort I’d put into reminding her of why I’d chosen her and only her.She’d just replied to my text as I was heading out of work after staying back to work on a contract till nighttime and I was pleased by the slight change in her tone, it meant that her resolve was weakening slowly and things would soon return to normal between us.Coupled with my excitement about that little progress, the full moon sitting beautifully in the sky put my wolf in a great mood all through the ride home.Once I got home and stepped out of t

SCARLETTMy eyes felt like they were carrying the weight of the world as I forced them open.The first thing I saw was Blake’s back turned to me while he ran a hand through his already ruffled hair over and over again like he’d reached his limit with frustration.“You’ve had three damn hours to wake her up! Three! And yet, you can’t find a single pulse in her body despite all the countless spells you've chanted,” he hissed, addressing a lady whose face was blocked by his huge frame.“She’ll wake up soon, the spells take a while to set in, but I’m sure she's alive, I could feel her wolf while I checked for a pulse earlier,” she sounded just as frustrated while explaining things to him.“You’ve said those same words over and over, but she's still passed out cold, how the hell am I supposed to believe a word that leaves your lips?” his voice deepened and his anger was evident in every word.“This process takes patience, it involves waking someone who lost all consciousness and gone into

SCARLETTI’d just pushed the flusher when I heard the main restroom door open.As soon as I stepped out and saw that it was Ashley that had entered, she bolted the behind me and my forehead creased in confusion as I headed towards the sink. I could tell that she was angry from the way her heels clacked wickedly as she walked, but I knew I wasn't the object of her anger because I hadn't seen her since Logan’s episode over a week ago.“What’s the problem, Ashley?” I asked as I turned on the faucet to wash my hands, “You look upset,” I added in a worried tone.“Shut your fucking pretentious trap!” she said in a hostile manner that made me freeze while the water continued to run down my hands.I couldn't believe that she was referring to me, and I slowly had to turn to face her to be sure she knew who she was speaking to, but judging from the hateful look on her face, she knew and didn't give a fuck.“What did you just say to me? That's uncalled for,” I dried my hands, getting irritated b

ALEXScarlett’s worries doubled as mine, and I wouldn't rest until they were eased.I was pooling all my contacts and resources to track down whoever made an attack on her life because I couldn’t lose her when she was finally warming up to me. Though it was happening slowly, it filled my heart with glee because I assumed that she’d never look at me again.My mind was replaying memories of the night she slept in my room and I was genuinely on cloud nine as I walked towards my car. However, my mood quickly morphed to annoyance when I spotted Logan stepping out of his car and heading towards the house.Stubbornly, I walked back and blocked the entrance to the house.“Get out of my way, Alex, I don’t have time for your rubbish,” he sighed tiredly, rubbing his temple like I was giving him a headache.Honestly, I hoped so.“What do you know about Scarlett having any enemies in the workplace? There was an attempt on her life recently and I’m not interested in beating about the bush, so tell
