Her Forbidden Alpha novel Chapter 39

　　The door slammed open and Angela dropped to her knees next to Scarlett.

　　“Babe what's wrong?!” She said panic filling her. ‘Mom dad!’ She shouted through the mind link. Scarlett couldn't move, the entire pain made her body burn, feeling an odd sensation rush to her core. But as soon as it came it was gone. She opened her eyes, her heart thundering. It took her a moment to realise the pain was gone.

　　“Girls are you two alright?!” Mr Jacobs said, rushing into the room.

　　“I don’t know, Scarlett screamed and looked to be in pain…” Angela said near tears, something that was a rare occurrence.

　　“I’m ok… I just… I’m fine.” Scarlett said taking a deep breath, although she knew something was fucked up. Was she getting ill? That was something odd for werewolves but then again it could be the mark on her neck too.

　　“Are you sure dear? Maybe we should get you to the pack hospital.” Mr Jacobs said, concern clear on his face.

　　“No, I'm fine, seriously. We should get going Angie.” Scarlett said to her friend pointedly.

　　“Ok dad, she just scared the living daylights out of me and now she says she’s ok. We’ll just go.” Angela said, glad Scarlett was ok and she herself didn’t want to miss this chance. Scarlett couldn't stand Elijah up until recently, so they never really hung with the crowd growing up.

　　-----

　　20 minutes later Scarlett and Angela had reached the club they were going to hang at. It was a human’s club and although Jackson owned many establishments, a club was not one of them. They would all need to keep themselves in check.

　　The strong smell of alcohol, sex, perfume and sweat was strong in the air. The music was loud and the flashing lights seemed somehow even brighter than usual.

　　“When was the last time we came here?” Scarlett called out to Angela, who was scanning the crowds looking for the rest. Elijah had wanted Scarlett to come with him but she had told him she’d come with Angela instead.

　　“A few months ago? Oh there they are!” She said pointing to a booth in the corner. The table was already was full of glasses and, to Scarlett’s dismay, Fiona sat next to Elijah in a plunging pink dress. On his other side was Keira in a nude sheer dress, with stickers covering her breasts. She felt a sliver of anger flare up inside of her, could he not find any other seat than between the two?

　　“One second…” She said to Angela stopping her from walking through the crowd, wanting to see if anything more would happen. Angela refused to listen to her and dragged her towards the table, Aaron was there with Monica straddling him making out like there was no tomorrow. Hank and Liam also sat there, drinks in hand with two of Keira’s friends Lola and Miranda both in skimpy dresses.

　　There were three other male wolves and Scarlett felt her blood run cold when she recognised them - Kyle, Andrew, and Callum. All three had been a part of the prank Hank had pulled on her. Although it felt like ages ago it still made her feel sick, she wondered if even one of them remembered what they had done… Hank sure did. She didn’t like that feeling of being helpless that they had instilled in her… Callum was currently making out with Miranda, his hand slipped under her dress and she was sure they’d soon be gone from the party if things continued like this.

　　“Scarlett, you made it!” Liam said flashing her a smile. Hank turned his eyes on her too as Elijah looked up quickly, his eyes ran over her, his heart racing when he saw her stood there in her tiny shorts, her figure-hugging top that showed off all of her cleavage - an outfit that hugged her body so perfect. She looked so fucking sexy, how was he so lucky that she was his? Her heart skipped a beat as she watched him check her out, something even Angela saw.

　　“You look great.” Hank said with a smirk, Scarlett gave him a cold glare.

　　“Piss of Hank.”

　　“What’s with the anger gorgeous? I’m just complimenting you.” He said, Elijah looked at him coldly.

　　“Back off.” He growled, his Alpha aura clear in his tone. Fiona looked at Scarlett and scooted closer to Elijah.

　　“Come sit with us.” She said smiling sweetly. Scarlett frowned, why didn’t she just climb into Elijah’s lap instead? Her breasts were pressed right up against him and she didn’t miss Keira’s slimy hand on Elijah’s arm.

　　“No thanks, I’m going to get a drink.” She said icily, turning away and making Elijah’s gaze fall on her ass. Feeling himself throb, he glanced sharply at the others, and sure enough each male that wasn’t in a lip-locking match was checking her out. His dark aura made the boys look at him.

　　“Keep your fucking eyes to yourselves.” He said dangerously.

　　“Come on, she’s fair game.” Hank said, his eyes glinting. Elijah looked him in the eye, his cold dominant gaze made Hank look down in respect. He hated the power Elijah had over him.

　　“Show some respect, Hank.” Liam said frowning, she was the Alpha’s sister after all. Angela looked at Scarlett then at Elijah, she was getting confused, their behaviour had changed so much…

　　“Same goes for you, she’s off-limits.” Elijah snapped glaring at Kiera. “And stop fucking touching me.”

　　“I’m sure you’d enjoy my touch..” Keira whispered winking at him. Elijah simply frowned folding his arms, his eyes not leaving Scarlett as she walked over to the bar. The way her ass moved… and her hips… Fuck he wanted to take her right here…

　　“Alpha…” Angela said, thinking his eyes were set on Scarlett… a sudden thought came to her head making her eyes widen but she pushed it out thinking no way… “Want to dance?”

　　“No-” Elijah stopped, thinking if he wanted to dance with Scarlett, Angela was his only way to do that… “Sure.”

　　Angela’s eyes widened as Fiona looked upset, he had refused her earlier. Kiera simply glared at Angela who looked beyond excited. Elijah stood up and Fiona moved her legs back feeling broken, she had hoped Elijah would realise he needed her, but it seemed he didn’t even think of her since they had been apart.

　　‘One condition, get Red to join us.” Elijah said to Angela through the mind link. She looked at him, her curiosity growing. Was her earlier assumption somewhat true?

　　‘Ok… Meet you on the dance floor.’ She replied through the mind link and went off to find Scarlett. She found her quickly as she sat at the bar chugging down glass after glass.

　　“Whoa easy on the drinks.” She said, taking the glass she held in her hands.

　　“Look…Elijah agreed to dance with me.” Angela said watching her friend very carefully, not missing the tiny flicker of hurt in them. “But he said only if you joined…”

　　Scarlett’s eyes widened, her heart thudding, wasn’t he making it obvious? But he was an Alpha, and she knew he was possessive of her. He didn’t like her apart from him for long, they loved as strongly as they hated…

　　“Umm ok.” She said standing up, Angela smiled.

　　“Thank you!” She said wondering if her assumption was anywhere near the truth. She pulled Scarlett to the dance floor. “Come on let’s show him our moves!”

　　“Sure.” Scarlett said feeling a little better, knowing that Elijah had at least thought of her. Sure, the girls had been all over him at the table but he hadn't been all over them, why was she feeling so hot and cold emotionally? It wasn’t the time of the month either, she really needed to have more faith in him. Ever since she got this mark everything felt more heightened.

　　Angela took her hand and began dancing with her as they neared Elijah who was brushing off a human female who was trying to chat him up. He looked up when he saw the two women approach, watching them sway their bodies sensually. His eyes roaming over Scarlett, she turned her back to Angela who gave her ass a light tap, making him want to pull her against him and make sure no one else touched her, although watching her dance was so fucking hot…

　　Scarlett smiled remembering when she and Angela used to just dance with each other every time they went to a club, it was better than having some hormonal asshole have his hands all over them.

　　She turned grinding her ass against Angela teasingly before she twirled, taking her hand and spun her around. Her eyes met Elijah’s, the look he was giving her was as if he wanted to devour her and she sure wouldn’t mind if he did… She bit her lip giving him a flirty wink, her eyes trailing down his figure admiring his sexy physique. Licking her lips when she saw the bulge in his jeans…

　　For once not caring if anyone saw them or not…
