Mated to a Scarlett wolf Chapter 1 Abadoned

ATHENA'S POV

"Get out and never come back!"

The voice of my father resonated in my ears as he spat on me whilst talking.

Mother was there also. She wouldn't even look at me.

I turned to her. "Mother, I'm sorry. I don't know what came over me!" I pleaded.

"Athena, You do not belong here. There is an evil inside you and it spreading so fast. You shouldn't be amongst us. Leave!" she said in a loud tone.

"Why would they do this to me?" It wasn't my fault.

I never intended to kill Jonas. I got angry and things went haywire.

He was standing right in front of me saying all sort of things about my late baby sister.

I was angry. I couldn't take it anymore. My inner wolf came out. I tried to calm it down but it wouldn't listen. The shift was swift and before I knew it, I slit his throat with my sharp claws.

He bled all over my clothes and another member of the pack walked in and saw what had happened.

They wouldn't just hear me out.

"I do not want to see you here, anymore. You are not mine! This pack rejects you and I say so on behalf of the Alpha. Out!" he shouted.

"Take her away from here, far off from our territory. She is a forbidden fruit!" he spat on my face and walked away.

He wasn't willing to hear me. Mother turned her back on me as the other werewolves came and carried me out.

They pushed me and kicked me hard.

I cried.

I could feel my heart failing as they carried me carelessly and threw me to the ground when they got deeper into the woods.

"Ugh" I grunt as I am kicked in the stomach again.

They won't stop kicking me.

"Demon! Jonas was my friend and you killed him," one of the werewolves who stood around said.

"I'm sorry. I......." I stuttered.

A hit landed on my face before I could utter another word.

"What should we do with her?" one of them muttered.

"Her father doesn't want her anymore. We should beat her and dump her body somewhere," another responded.

Before I could say another word in protest, I was once again assaulted by blows and kicks.

There are cuts and blood stains all over my body, and slowly, everywhere begins to darken.

I lose strength and stop struggling.

Before I knew it, one of them slapped me in the face, bringing me back to reality.

"Your death would mean nothing to nobody. The pack forbids an evil like you!" his voice echoed

I lay there helpless as my nose bleed and I cough out profusely.

I am beaten and injured within every inch of my mortal body. Even If I can still move, what could I possibly do?

These men are pack warriors trained to fight.

There was nothing I could do against them.

I am suddenly aware of the sounds of rushing water, and my heart picks up even faster as they lifted me.

"Let's dump her body into the river," I heard one of them say.

This is it; my end. They must think I'm dead already.

It's not fair. I don't deserve this. I can't die like this.

"Please... help me," I whimper but no response. Without delay, I am thrown high up into the air, and for just one eccentric moment, it feels terrific.

Free, like I am flying, and then gravity steps in. I fall so fast that I can't breathe between my aching ribs before submerging in the frigid, ice-cold water.

The force at which I hit the water is so jarring that I swear I feel a bone crack. I can't swim; my limbs are useless, but somehow, I manage to float on my back.

I don't know how long I float downstream; I am aware of the jagged rocks that bump and scratch at me, the sun moving through the sky and finally setting, and the crickets coming out to sing.

But as for being consciously aware of all these, no. I am not. I float in and out of consciousness, never fully passing out as if something was stopping me from doing so.

And I know for sure, that the moment I lose consciousness, I die. Owing to that, I courageously hang on for as long as possible.

Perhaps someone would come and save me before I give up the ghost.

I was carried by the current of the water and it felt like I spent days not until my head hit a rock as the water poured me out.

I opened my eyes slightly and all I could see was thick woods. "The water must have brought me here," I thought.

I laid there for hours with no one to come to my aid. I wander the woods like a lost soul for days, bleeding.

Everything became blurry as I fell back to the ground.

Suddenly, I become aware of running paws approaching me from afar.

Many paws. I think someone is coming for me.

Soon, I am cradled into the arms of a man which sets off all alarm bells in my head. No one in the pack treats me gently.

"Who are these people?"

I still can't move. From the corner of my eyes, I see the wolves shuffle away as someone's footsteps can be heard walking closer.

A pair of green boots come within my eyesight. The man beside me bows his head to the person before stepping back.

"What is this?" a female voice, filled with authority, demands.

An unfamiliar one.

"Who are these people, for goddess's sake? And what do they want from me?"

"We picked up her scent some minutes ago while on patrol. She is still breathing, ma," the man who carried me, answered.

"What about our other scouts?" the woman asked.

"We are clear. There seem to be no intruders reported to be around. She appears to be the only one here," the man replied.

"You can't be too sure. Send the wolves to do another sweep before reporting back to the pack house," she said, her eyes now turned towards where I was laid.

The young woman walked towards me, bent over, and looked me straight in the eyes. My vision was still blurry so I couldn't make out her face and the tattoo on her neck seemed to have caught my attention. It was that of a butterfly and it seemed like it was moving as I tried to stare it closely.

"Who is she?" I thought.

She wore a glove that had strange markings on them and this got me a bit scared.

"Do you think she is a rebel? Perhaps we should kill her right here," the one who carried me said.

"Go ahead, she is dead anyways," the young woman said.

"No....please..." I stammered.

"No!"

"Stop!" a voice from behind echoed.

Today is October 14th, my birthday. I returned to New York after months away, dragging my suitcase through the biting wind, but the VIP pickup zone where my husband’s Maybach usually idled was empty. When I finally let myself into our Upper East Side penthouse, I didn’t find a cake or a "welcome home" banner. Instead, I found my husband, Caden, kneeling on the floor, helping our five-year-old daughter wrap a massive gift for my half-sister, Adalynn. Caden didn’t even look up when I walked in; he was too busy laughing with the girl who had already stolen my father’s legacy and was now moving in on my family. "Auntie Addie is a million times better than Mommy," my daughter Elara chirped, clutching a plush toy Caden had once forbidden me from buying for her. "Mommy is mean," she whispered loudly, while Caden just smirked, calling me a "drill sergeant" before whisking her off to Adalynn’s party without a second glance. Later that night, I saw a video Adalynn posted online where my husband and child laughed while mocking my "sensitive" nature, treating me like an inconvenient ghost in my own home. I had spent five years researching nutrition for Elara’s health and managing every detail of Caden’s empire, only to be discarded the moment I wasn't in the room. How could the man who set his safe combination to my birthday completely forget I even existed? The realization didn't break me; it turned me into ice. I didn't scream or beg for an explanation. I simply walked into the study, pulled out the divorce papers I’d drafted months ago, and took a black marker to the terms. I crossed out the alimony, the mansion, and even the custody clause—if they wanted a life without me, I would give them exactly what they asked for. I left my four-carat diamond ring on the console table and walked out into the rain with nothing but a heavily encrypted hard drive. The submissive Mrs. Holloway was gone, and "Ghost," the most lethal architect in the tech world, was finally back online to take back everything they thought I’d forgotten.

I stood at my mother’s open grave in the freezing rain, my heels sinking into the mud. The space beside me was empty. My husband, Hilliard Holloway, had promised to cherish me in bad times, but apparently, burying my mother didn't fit into his busy schedule. While the priest’s voice droned on, a news alert lit up my phone. It was a livestream of the Metropolitan Charity Gala. There was Hilliard, looking impeccable in a custom tuxedo, with his ex-girlfriend Charla English draped over his arm. The headline read: "Holloway & English: A Power Couple Reunited?" When he finally returned to our penthouse at 2 AM, he didn't come alone—he brought Charla with him. He claimed she’d had a "medical emergency" at the gala and couldn't be left alone. I found a Tiffany diamond necklace on our coffee table meant for her birthday, and a smudge of her signature red lipstick on his collar. When I confronted him, he simply told me to stop being "hysterical" and "acting like a child." He had no idea I was seven months pregnant with his child. He thought so little of my grief that he didn't even bother to craft a convincing lie, laughing with his mistress in our home while I sat in the dark with a shattered heart and a secret life growing inside me. "He doesn't deserve us," I whispered to the darkness. I didn't scream or beg. I simply left a folder on his desk containing signed divorce papers and a forged medical report for a terminated pregnancy. I disappeared into the night, letting him believe he had successfully killed his own legacy through his neglect. Five years later, Hilliard walked into "The Vault," the city's most exclusive underground auction, looking for a broker to manage his estate. He didn't recognize me behind my Venetian mask, but he couldn't ignore the neon pink graffiti on his armored Maybach that read "DEADBEAT." He had no clue that the three brilliant triplets currently hacking his security system were the very children he thought had been erased years ago. This time, I wasn't just a wife in the way; I was the one holding all the cards.

I went to the City Clerk’s office for a routine copy of my marriage license to finalize a trust fund audit. I expected a simple piece of paper, but the clerk’s pitying look told me my entire life was a lie. "The license was never finalized, Ms. Oliver. In the eyes of the state, you are single." The three-hundred-guest wedding at the Plaza and the Vogue features meant nothing. My husband, Gray Cooley, had intentionally filed the documents with a "procedural defect" so he could discard me without a legal divorce. Moments later, an iCloud invite titled "Our Little Secret" popped up on my screen. It was a photo of my best friend, Brylee, holding a positive pregnancy test at our Hamptons estate. Gray’s text to her was the final blow: "Happy anniversary, babe. This baby is the best gift. Once the trust unlocks today, we’re done with the charade." I soon discovered they were even stealing my career, reassigning my architectural masterpiece to Brylee while preparing my eviction notice. Gray's mother called me a "barren mule" in a leaked recording, mocking the infertility I suffered after saving Gray’s life in a construction accident. I wasn't a wife; I was a three-year placeholder used to secure his inheritance. How could the man I bled for treat me like a disposable prop? How could my best friend carry his child while pretending to comfort me through my darkest moments? The betrayal burned until it turned into a cold, hard stone of fury. I didn't cry. Instead, I walked into the penthouse of the Barretts, the Cooleys' most powerful rivals. I signed a marriage contract with Kane Barrett, the man the tabloids called the "Beast of Wall Street." "I want a wedding," I told his father, my voice steady and lethal. "Bigger than the one I had with Gray." If they wanted me gone, they would have to watch me become the woman who owns their world.

For two years, I was the invisible force behind tech billionaire Kieran Douglas, convinced that our "private" romance was his way of protecting us from the tabloid spotlight. I managed his mergers, warmed his bed, and waited for a future that didn't exist. The illusion shattered at 6:00 AM when a Page Six alert debuted Kieran’s "real" romance with socialite Aspen Schneider. Before I could even process the betrayal, Kieran sent me a cold, professional text: "Order flowers for Aspen. Pink peonies. Her favorite." When I tried to walk away, my own mother called me a disgrace and threatened to lock my inheritance forever unless I married a sixty-year-old businessman to save her failing estate. At a high-society gala that same night, Aspen intentionally crushed my burned hand in front of the cameras, while Kieran stood by and dismissed me as a "mediocre assistant" who had overstayed her welcome. I stood in the cold New York rain, drenched in champagne and humiliation, realizing that every sacrifice I made for Kieran was a joke. I was a ghost in a penthouse that was never mine, discarded the moment his "soulmate" returned. To the world, I was just a placeholder whose time had run out. But Kieran forgot one thing: my father’s multi-million dollar trust fund unlocks the moment I legally marry. I didn't need love; I needed a signature and a shield. I walked into a discreet law firm and signed a marriage contract with a man I believed was the city’s most notorious, scandal-ridden playboy. I thought I was marrying a degenerate "beard" to buy my freedom and secure my revenge. I didn't realize the man who signed that paper wasn't a playboy at all, but Gaston Collins—the most powerful and dangerous man on Wall Street—and he had no intention of letting our fake marriage stay fake.
