Scarlett

Nicole's P.O.V

I remember waking up the next morning, panicking because I felt two hands on me and couldn't recognize the room I was in, screaming startling those by my side and making them both look around with wide eyes as if searching for the intruder when they saw no one they looked at me searching for what's wrong and that's when I registered where I am and who I was with and what happened the day before, to say I was embarrassed would be an understatement.

So I ran to hide in the bathroom but I passed by a mirror and saw it, it was beautiful, it's like a tattoo, a meaningful one, three wolves, two looking at the other one with a bright moon across their heads and the beautiful sky with sparkling stars.

It was awkward at first, and the teasing I got from lee and the twins, Christ, it just made me wanna hide but thinking back to the mark it looked really pretty.

I groan turning I felt Alex's hands on me tighten, gently removing their hands from my body, i tried getting up but failed because both boys pulled me back down.

" Where are you going to kitten?" Asher asked huskily with his eyes still closed, while he pulled me closer leaving his brother to move closer to us.

" I need to pee" I whispered trying not to wake Alex up but I think I did a bad job on that as a hear a groan from his mouth.

"Where are you going to" he still sleepy " Bathroom" with that said I quickly stood up but felt dizzy instantly, ok take it from me don't ever rush to get up when you just woke up.

come back quickly" they both murmured not seeming to notice what just happened.

Later when it was 6:30 am when I was dragged out of bed and my sweet dream of chocolate, waffles, and lots of deserts. yes I figured I have sweet tooth.

" Come on just give me five minutes" I murmured and to think I'll get that five minutes ha what a joke. because I was poured bone-chilling ice water the next second with the excuse that training was about to start and I got 10 minutes to get ready and be at the training ground. I just glare at Ashley, so that's why they aren't here and if looks could kill, she would be six feet under the ground right now.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"we're leaving now," I said with my head stuck to the slightly opened door of their office. I've been opening up to them gradually but my walls are still up I don't know how it will remain like that.

I went downstairs to meet lee and Stella Stephano's mate, he found her a week ago while he was on patrol. They seem so in love. Getting downstairs I hear rushed footsteps coming from where I just came from.

I felt an arm on my waist and I was pulled back into a chest and felt a kiss on my neck and another on the other side of it, I blushed, ever since the whole marking stuff they've been more open on PDA and Lots of touching or as the Chinese would say 'dog food'.

"Hey, stop rubbing it in our faces and no PDA, we have to get going," Lee said playfully, I blushed even more while her brothers just ignored her and turned to face me and asked.

" Where are you going," The boys asked in unsion

" To the mall, because someone thought I needed more clothes and I'm starting school next Monday" I answered shooting a glare at Ashley.'Oh, how I love school' i thought sarcastically, but I'm glad they can't hear my thoughts for now since we haven't mated yet, but from the looks of it, it seems like they could just tell what I was thinking about. Both boys just smiled.

WOW! I think I'm gonna pass out, have I ever told you how they have this killer smile if not then now you know. whenever Alex smiled he's deep dimples would pop out same with asher, but most times asher has this goofy grin on which makes me wonder if they're really the most feared Alphas.

"We'll go with you," Alex said in a dominating voice that could cause the old me to pee in my pants, "But..." I wanted to test the waters by protesting against his decision but was cut off by asher " Yes we'll go with you and that's final" wow this is the first time I'm seeing him this serious. I said nothing and that's how it just went.

It was calm and peaceful until we reached the mall I notice the stare of other girls on my man.

' back off bitches they're mine' I sneered in my mind but I guess it also reflected on my expression as the guys bent their heads to whisper in my ears.

"We're yours and yours alone okay"let's just say I now look like a tomato.

Later on, as we moved further into the mall to shop we heard some human guys whistle, well since I was now the only female with the guys and Lee, Stel and Stephano were at the other two stores..... that could only mean they were whistling at me and that's how they ended up being carried out by the paramedics.

Oh oh and there was a part where Stephano beat a dude because he just said stel was pretty. yep, the same happened to a guy that tried to strike up a conversation with me and lee let's just say they're crazily possessive and those poor humans were beaten up to plump.

Training in the woods alone at night wasn't something anybody with a sane mind would do right? but i'm out in the woods, doing what exactly? training.

I've been doing this for two weeks now after being marked*blushes*

I continue to kick the punching bag hanging from the tree in front of me, breathing hard, come to think of it I've gotten stronger than before.

* sigh* I took a break sitting on a log nearby.

Talking to ava, I hear a rustling sound from somewhere nearby, I stood up as gears in my head started turning, I carefully walked towards the area where I heard the sound coming from, with caution I looked over the bush where I hear footsteps from.

I hid behind a nearby tree as the sound of footsteps came to a halt, I watched a little closer still finding nothing I decide its time to go back, it should be safe since I didn't smell the scent of a rouge but Ava was still on edge.

Turning to walk back I can see a young woman that looks to about in her early twenties standing right before me, what the...., how did she get here. Still confused and speechless as ever.

"Who are-"

I know what you want to ask and I'm a witch" before I could finish my sentence she interrupted me.

Oh my Goodness she's a what now .... in the next second I hear a growl not even realizing it's from me, till she said.

" I'm Scarlette, I mean no harm, you can think of me as the good guy okay" she said raising her hand up in a surrendering motion.

" Why should I trust you, you're a witch after all and we all know what witches are like" I sneered, what?....does she think I'll suddenly trust a total stranger and witch for that matter.

" Look,I know you don't trust me but that's fine cause I wouldn't just trust a stranger that came out of nowhere myself," she said trying to calm me down. I said nothing so she continued

" You're a lot more than what you think you're nicole" she said with a knowing smile.

"Oh cut the whole motivational speaker crap" I said feeling a little annoyed and irritated.

" And how did you know my name and all that, and what on earth do you mean by what you said what are you trying to prove," I said in a rush and panic, could she be walking with bright moon pack? I thought, I mean it's been seven(7)months since I left, was he looking for me?

"Do you know why you've always been different from everyone including your brothers, do you know why you are the only one currently with white hair..."she didn't continue as I stopped her.

"Enough, aren't you miss know it all, the little witch that knows everything about lil ole me Nicole so you should know why I'm different and what my life is like"I said feeling agitated.

Okay, since you so badly wanna hear it from me I'll tell you, Isn't it because I'm a freak, a white haired werido, a murderer, a good-for-nothing, a weakling...do you want to know more"I said as tears fall from my eyes, my finger nails were digging deep into my palm causing blood to come out.

"You don't want your mates to see that,"she said pointing at my bleeding hand, wow so considerate, I thought sarcastically.Soon she continued.

"Has anything unusual happened since you got your wolf? Do you know why she was locked away by your parents?, Sorry do you know why you just got your wolf"she asked, how does she know all this and my parents? I don't believe it.

A..Ava what does she mean by locked up"I asked feeling anxious.

"Wh-Wh-why should I tell you or even answer to you" I spoke back.

" You don't have to believe me or tell me because from your reaction I can tell something unusual happened, "Scarlette said looking confident, I don't like this confidence.

"Were you surprised to find out you had another mate sorry mates I mean?" She asked calmly.

What the... how did she know, yes I was surprised and it took time to accept them but I'm not going to tell her that.

"What do you want," I asked her cautiously.

" I want nothing, but I do have something to tell you" she said mysteriously.

"Cut the whole mysterious act and spill it"I said, I was anxious, impatient and irritated.

"Right,soon you'll find out why and how your parents died, and what lies in you, hopefully you'll be prepared for the changes to come in your life"

' changes?'

What I'm I finding out that I didn't know'

'We all know the died because of me'

'What does she mean.'

"Hey,what do you mean-" I said tiring around but there was no one around making it seem like I was hallucinating or in a illusion or something.

"Those darn witches."I cursed under my breath.
