Her Forbidden Alpha

Chapter45　The Alphas Pain

“Scarlett are you alright?!” Jackson asked, worry filling him as Jessica ran out pulling Scarlett into her arms the moment the Beta placed her down. The hug only agitated her extra sensitive skin.

“I just want to go to my room, can I get ice?” She whispered to her mother. Jessica looked her over, panic filling her as she searched for any mark on Scarlett. Amelia hurried from the house, she looked worried and as if she had aged ten years in the last half hour. She was regretting not telling Elijah sooner where Scarlett was. If she had all this could have been avoided.

“Of course! Indigo, Jackson, get ice.” Jessica said as she and Amelia led Scarlett inside.

When she was settled into the bath with lots of ice, the three females surrounded her. Jessica was consumed with guilt, Scarlett was going through this because of her father. How she hated the man… but she felt confused after what Nick had told them. It meant something bad had happened in that cave… Why was Scarlett scratch free? Did Scarlett do something bad without a valid reason, she did have a temper…

“I should never have left you.” Amelia said tenderly stroking her hair. Scarlett flinched from her touch, her entire body hurt and although her body felt numb, she could still feel the scorching pain. With no energy to cry out anymore she didn’t react.

“It isn’t your fault, it’s my luck grandma… Can everyone just leave…? I just want to be alone…”

Amelia pursed her lips. “You don’t mean that child, at least let me stay…”

“Or me.” Indigo said quietly, feeling really upset when she saw her sister like this. A hazy memory of long ago seemed to come to her but she couldn’t quite grasp it.

“I said leave, just bring me ice every hour…” She whispered, a weak whimper leaving her as another spasm shot through her – making the women wish they could help her but there was nothing they could do. There was a knock on the bathroom door and Jackson stood there, he didn’t enter as he stood in the door looking very upset.

“Scarlett, I know this might not be what you need your old man to tell you but what about the boy you love, I’m sure if you called him… He’d… you know…” Jackson’s ears became red at his own words as Amelia frowned at him. She knew Scarlett didn’t need any additional questioning.

“What if that boy didn’t love her back? Would you want her to use her heat to seduce him? You really are stupid! How did you even become Alpha…? Now get out!” She snapped making Jackson flinch, his aunty really was a ruthless woman. She looked at Scarlett who didn’t even react, pain contorting her face, but even then her eyes were blank.

Indigo asked, making Scarlett’s
