Her Forbidden Alpha

Chapter66　Believing In Ourselves

It was the following day and Scarlett was on her way to Amelia’s. They were leaving for The Black Storm Pack tomorrow morning and she wanted to see the woman before she left.

She was walking along, lost in thought until she saw Fiona and Elijah having a heated argument up ahead. She stopped frowning, did the woman not get a hint? Elijah growled at her making the girl break into sobs again. Scarlett shook her head; she was fed up with her constant tears.

Walking over she grabbed Fiona by her arm and wrenched her away from Elijah, her eyes a steely silver as she glared at her.

“You know… I gave you a clear warning. Stay. Away. From. My. Man.” Scarlett said her voice cold, her Alpha aura surrounding her making Fiona look at Elijah fearfully. He simply shook his head.

“I think I’ll let your Luna deal with you.” He said. Leaning over he gripped Scarlett’s chin, kissing her sensually. “I’ll see you later, I’m heading to the packhouse to organise our team.”

“See you later.” Scarlett said, all the time not letting go of Fiona’s arm. She watched Elijah walk off before turning her gaze back to Fiona. “I warned you…”

“I love him! It’s not my fault!” She sobbed; Scarlett frowned.

“He isn’t yours. As your Luna by going after the Alpha you are directly insulting me!” she said, now letting go of the woman’s arm. She slapped her hard across the face. Fiona gasped as her head snapped to the side sharply, pain throbbing through her. Scarlett grabbed her by her neck and lifted her up trying to control her anger.

“Because I’m your Luna I won’t do more. But I swear… Chase Elijah again and I will make sure you are thrown out of this pack! Do I make myself clear?!” Scarlett snapped. Fiona looked at her, whimpering as she felt blood trickle out of her nose. She had lost, even if her heart didn’t want to believe it. There was nothing left to hope for and she knew Scarlett would follow up on her threat, Elijah had said the same thing minutes earlier. Seeing the hatred in his eyes for her had hurt a lot. A foreign feeling bubbled in the pit of her stomach for the woman in front of her but she seemly looked away, casting her eyes to the floor.

“I-I promise, I won’t try anymore… It’s clear there is no place in his heart for me.”

“Yeah, there isn’t and this time I hope you remember that.” Scarlett snapped icily. Fiona simply nodded feeling defeated. Scarlett pushed past her feeling annoyed, she had ruined her mood entirely!

She reached Amelia’s cottage knocking on the slightly open door. The smell of tea brewing filled her nose when she heard Amelia speak.

“Come on in you don’t expect me to come and welcome you graciously because you’re the Luna now?”

Scarlett smiled as she pushed the door open and stepped inside.

“No, I would never expect that of you.” She said amused. Looking around she saw the table was already set with Cherry Bakewell Tarts, Angel Slices and Coconut Cake. All homemade and smelling divine.

“Good!” Amelia snorted as she turned the pan off and poured it into two mugs.
