Caged Between the beta & alpha

SCARLETT

My heart skipped a beat , my nerves rippled through me as I stared at the man before me .

I could barely recognise him , save his strawberry locks and his features that were a mix of both mine and Elijah’s .

The coldness and darkness that exuded from him made my gut twist , but it was the cold smile on his face that reminded m e of someone long ago .

Someone that I still sometimes had to remind myself was dead .

Someone who would still creep into my mind on an occasional rare night …

No.

My son was not anything like him .

” Liam .

” I said , getting up .

I walked towards him , cupping his face as I perched on the armrest of the sofa next to him .

” Liam , look at me .

” Liam … I think a trial sounds fair .

Something was going on … Something that I had a feeling these three knew of .

This was not just the mate issue here .

Liam looked at Raven , who gave him a small smile , and I turned to Elijah who was watching the entire scene with a thoughtful expression .

” Something’s felt different about you since you returned , but now I know there’s definitely more to it .

Care to share what the fuck is going on ? ” He asked .

” There’s nothing to say .

” Liam said , about to stand up when Raven took hold o f his wrist .

” It’s … There’s a curse ! ” She blurted out .

I raised an eyebrow , trying to make sense of what she’d just said .

” I told you it’s no big deal and that was something you shouldn’t have mentioned ! ” Liam said , glaring at her .

His voice had never been harsher .
