The Alpha Twins Who Shared Me

Three years into being Lucas's secret lover, I got pregnant.

That night, I braved the pouring rain to surprise him at the bar where he was partying. Instead, I heard him and his twin brother laughing inside the VIP room.

If Scarlett found out on her birthday that she had been sleeping with random guys for three years like a cheap whore, would she lose her mind on the spot?

"More than that. I will use her 'cheating' as an excuse to demand Alexander demote her to a low-ranking Omega. She has only herself to blame for bullying Chloe."

So three years of sweet romance was nothing but a revenge trap Lucas set for Chloe.

Even every intimate moment was just a calculated identity swap between the twins.

But they had no idea. Chloe was the real bully.

A year later, when I became the mate of Alpha Ethan, they begged for my forgiveness on their knees. I only smiled.

"Too late. I have been reborn. And you will burn in hell forever."

Scarlett POV

The day my pregnancy test came back positive, I braved a massive storm to go to the bar where Lucas was partying.

Outside the VIP room, I took a towel from the waiter, wiped my soaking wet hair, and waited to surprise him when the party ended.

Through the slightly open door, a laughing male voice drifted out.

"Lucas, your birthday party with Scarlett is in a week. Got the surprise ready?"

"Of course," Lucas's cold, deep voice was laced with alcohol. "I'll give her a night she'll never forget."

My hand froze on the towel. I couldn't help but smile.

In our three years together, even though he hadn't marked me yet, he had treated me like a princess, spoiling me to my bones.

"If Scarlett finds out I've been pretending to be you and sleeping with her all this time, will she go completely insane?"

"I bet that stupid girl would never guess in a million years that Lucas has an identical twin brother, Liam!"

"Isn't she always so high and mighty? If she finds out she's been shared by you two for three years, I can't wait to see the look on her face."

The malicious laughter made me freeze on the spot.

I couldn't believe my ears. I took a step forward, peering through the crack of the door.

In the next second, I saw a man sitting next to Lucas who looked exactly like him. From his face to his hair, even the tiny mole under his eye was identical!

The man smirked, leaning back lazily on the couch.

"She brought this on herself for bullying Chloe. Chloe is Lucas's sweetheart. To punish Scarlett and drag her down to hell at her peak, Lucas really put in the work."

His friends, who were usually so nice to me, chimed in with sneers.

"Liam, you're the one who worked hard. You did all the heavy lifting in bed these past few years!"

"Man, if I looked like Lucas, I'd have taken a turn too!"

"Right? Scarlett has the face and the body. If she goes crazy after the birthday party, why don't you pass her down to us?"

"Lucas came up with this plan for Chloe and acted for three years without even touching Scarlett himself. What a loyal man!"

Lucas. Liam. Chloe.

My head spun, my blood freezing in my veins. I couldn't breathe.

My body trembled uncontrollably, tears spilling from my eyes.

The love I thought was heaven was actually a sick trap.

A trap designed to avenge Chloe, the real bully.

I remembered waking up from nightmares of Chloe's torment, and Lucas holding me, whispering that I didn't need to be afraid.

I remembered telling him about my past trauma, and him soothing me over and over.

He even had the pack healer brew special ointment to fade my scars.

I couldn't believe it. I didn't want to.

Those moments of love felt so real. How could they be a lie?

The voices inside the room continued.

"Chloe is coming back soon. Lucas, you won't have to keep slipping out every week anymore!"

"After three years of playing role-play, I can finally be myself! Every time Lucas was out of town, I was the one comforting Scarlett." Liam sneered.

"Your voices are different. She never noticed?"

Liam scoffed. "That dumb bitch? I kept my voice low and told her my throat was sore. Every single time, she'd fuss over me and wake up at dawn to brew me soup!"

Another burst of roaring laughter.

Lucas cut them off. "Enough. Once the party is over, I'll apply to Alpha Alexander to have her demoted to a low-ranking Omega and assign her to the hardest labor. But you guys better behave yourselves until then."

"Lucas, you're not getting soft on her, are you?"

My heart squeezed. I held my breath, staring intently at the handsome man.

After two seconds, he let out a cold snort.

"Are you kidding me?"

"What about Liam? You've been sleeping with her for three years. Didn't catch feelings?"

Lucas turned to Liam. Liam shook his head violently.

"Three years? I got sick of her a long time ago. Lucas, why don't you take a turn?"

Lucas sneered. "No thanks. Too dirty."

"Alright, anyway, she's still a pack member. Alexander hates seeing pack members mistreated."

"Let's drop it. I need you guys to help me prep."

"In a week, right after we expose her, I'm going to propose to Chloe!"

Scarlett POV

I didn't even know how I left the bar.

Heavy rain beat down on my body, but I didn't care. Only the words from the VIP room echoed in my mind over and over.

Chloe. Just the thought of that name made my entire body shake.

I didn't understand. She had already left to study abroad. Why wouldn't she let me go? Why was she so obsessed with destroying me?

Just because someone once said I was prettier than her, Chloe and her friends cornered me and used every cruel method to torture me.

Because I refused to apologize to her, I lived in hell for the next three years.

She beat me and poured silver powder into my open wounds to prevent them from healing.

She even arranged for rich pack guys to pursue me, plotting to capture naked photos of me just to watch me fall.

Chloe never succeeded. Even after she left the pack, she hadn't managed to break me completely.

But back then, my body was covered in scars, and I was getting weaker by the day.

That was when Lucas appeared.

He was the brother of Alpha Alexander and the captain of the Ironroot Pack's elite guard.

He looked at me with kind eyes, took the time to understand my struggles, and listened to my needs.

Knowing my parents were dead and that I lived with my grandmother, he never looked down on me. Instead, he did everything he could to help.

He would sit and eat dinner with me after work, gently patting my head.

"Scarlett, you've had it rough. You're doing amazing."

Once, Grandma Ruth fell ill while I was at the other side of the territory caring for the pack pups.

Lucas happened to pass by, found her, and rushed her to the healer.

When I hurried back, he smiled and comforted me.

"Grandma is fine, don't worry. Don't push yourself too hard."

At that moment, a voice in my heart told me:

"He's the one. Trust him. No matter the ending, cherish the present."

Later, I became his secret lover, a role I played for three years.

I thought he loved me.

He was always so clean-cut, and there were never any other women around him.

But now, Liam's mocking laughter played in my head.

"She's so stupid. How could she think an Alpha's brother would actually fall for a wolf-less reject? Just a little acting and basic care, and she was completely touched."

"So stupid. Three years and she never noticed."

"So stupid, still thinking Lucas is devoted to her."

"So stupid, so stupid, so stupid..."

I collapsed in the rain, my tears mixing with the downpour.

I was so stupid.

I was... so damn stupid.

I threw my head back and laughed maniacally, letting the freezing rain pelt my face.

Right then, someone mind-linked me.

It was Sarah.

Luna Signe had established a system where the pack took care of the elderly wolfs in a nursing facility.

After Ruth got sick three years ago, she moved into the pack facility.

Sarah was one of the caregivers there.

"Scarlett, come quick! Ruth is dying!"

My head buzzed. My mind went blank, and my limbs went completely numb.

By pure instinct, I scrambled up from the ground and rushed to the road to hail a car.

But every car sped past, honking loudly.

If only I could shift, none of this would have happened. My wolf whimpered inside me.

I shook my head in agony.

"No, it's my fault. If I had been stronger and hadn't sealed your power for fear of being kicked out, we wouldn't be here."

I wasn't actually born without a wolf.

I was an Alpha's daughter. I was terrified that if I revealed my true power, Alpha Alexander of the Ironroot Pack would see me as a threat and exile me.

No Alpha would tolerate an outsider who was stronger than them.

They would see it as a threat and eliminate it at all costs.

So, I sealed my own wolf and quietly endured Chloe's bullying.

But now, I regretted it.

Submitting didn't bring peace. It didn't even let me see my grandmother one last time.

Just as I was about to run all the way back to the Packhouse, a black SUV pulled over.

A stern-looking man asked where I was going. Disregarding my safety, I jumped in.

By the time I reached the pack nursing home, the healer had already issued a critical notice.

"The Moon Goddess is calling her. Spend these last moments with her."

I fell to my knees, taking Ruth's trembling, cold hand.

Ruth forced a smile. "Scarlett... don't cry... I'm sorry, I couldn't make it to your birthday..."

I shook my head violently. I couldn't speak, only let out choked, agonizing sobs.

Ruth's eyes strained to look around. "Where's Lucas... I want to see him..."

"Okay."

I tried to mind-link Lucas, but I couldn't reach him.

I pulled out my phone and dialed his number over and over.

Each call went straight to voicemail. I desperately typed out messages.

"Lucas, Grandma is in heart failure. She's running out of time. Please come, she wants to see you one last time."

"Lucas, Ruth is waiting for you. Just for a minute, can you please come?"

"Lucas, I'm begging you..."

My trembling fingers flew across the screen, my tears splashing onto the glass.

At this moment, the lies and deception didn't matter. As long as Lucas came to let Grandma pass in peace, nothing else mattered.

But there was no reply.

I stopped texting, forced the best smile I could, and squeezed Grandma's hand to comfort her.

"Grandma, Lucas is caught up with some pack business, but don't worry, we are doing great..."

"Grandma, I'm going to be very happy... You don't have to worry about me..."

Ruth's grip suddenly tightened. She stared at me. "Scarlett... live well... be happy..."

"Don't be sad. I am just... returning to the Moon Goddess."

Her hand went limp. The final look in her eyes was filled with worry.

I stared at my empty palm, then collapsed to the floor, crying my heart out.

That night, I handled Ruth's funeral arrangements alone. Lucas never replied.

While waiting, I unblocked Chloe on Snapchat and checked her story.

"I planned to come back early to surprise him, but I was the one who got surprised instead!"

The photo was at the airport. Lucas was holding a huge bouquet of flowers, smiling warmly with gentle eyes.

There was another photo of the two of them. She was smiling sweetly, and Lucas was looking at her sideways, his eyes filled with absolute adoration.

My heart died completely. I locked my screen.

The next day at noon, I returned to my apartment holding Ruth's ashes. Two things happened.

First, I fell down the stairs due to exhaustion and dizziness. I lost the baby.

Second, I decided to leave the pack.

I submitted my request to Luna Signe.

Wolf packs have strict rules. Leaving or joining requires official approval.

Because my grandmother belonged to the Ironroot Pack, I had never sworn personal allegiance to Alpha Alexander.

Now that Ruth had returned to the Moon Goddess, it was time for me to leave.

Luna Signe looked at me in shock. "Isn't Lucas throwing you a birthday party? Why are you suddenly leaving?"

I was quiet for a second. "The party is canceled. I need to leave, as soon as possible."

Signe sighed. "Is it because of your grandmother? I'm so sorry, sweetie. She was a gentle and kind lady. We will all miss her."

"Thank you, Luna Signe. I appreciate everything you and Alpha Alexander did for me."

"Alright, since you've made up your mind. But please wait one week. We need Alexander's signature, and he'll be back then."

I nodded, understanding.

One week. That would be the exact day of the birthday party Lucas planned for me.

I wouldn't just leave that day. I was going to leave them a massive present they would never forget.

Scarlett POV

Since I knew I was never coming back, I decided to bury Ruth.

I bought a small pendant, placed a lock of Ruth's hair and a pinch of her ashes inside, and buried the rest in the pack cemetery.

Kneeling before her gravestone, I clutched the pendant.

"Grandma, don't worry. I am going to do what I want now. I'll protect myself."

It was evening when I returned to my apartment. As soon as I walked in, I heard laughter.

Ruth and I didn't live in the main Packhouse. We lived in a small, quiet cottage further away.

It was usually very silent.

As I walked in, confused, Lucas spotted me.

He quickly walked over and pulled me inside. "Come, let me introduce you to some friends."

A man and a woman stood up from the couch. They turned to look at me, their eyes gleaming with mockery.

It was Chloe and Liam.

My body began to shake slightly. It was a physical reaction from years of Chloe's bullying.

But that didn't mean I was afraid of her.

Lucas smiled. "Chloe is my childhood friend, and Liam is my twin brother. They just got back, right in time for your birthday party."

Chloe waved at me, smiling sweetly. "Scarlett and I already know each other. From the training grounds."

With that, she rushed over and grabbed my arm, whispering in my ear.

"Right, Scarlett?"

Flashbacks of my torment flooded my mind. Every time she finished beating me, she would whisper those exact words.

"Just a little girl-talk, right, Scarlett?"

Instinctively, I flinched and shoved Chloe away.

Chloe fell to the floor, looking completely victimized. "Scarlett, do you still hate me? I just wanted to get along with you."

The twins' expressions instantly darkened. Lucas rushed to pull Chloe up, his eyes glaring at me.

Liam frowned. "Lucas, is your lover always this arrogant?"

Lucas shielded Chloe behind his back, his voice cold and furious. "Scarlett, apologize!"

I looked at the three of them, my fists clenching at my sides.

Thinking about what I had heard at the bar, my heart felt like it was being ripped out.

I silently turned to leave.

But after two steps, Lucas grabbed my wrist tightly, pulling me back so hard I stumbled.

I looked up into his eyes, which were burning with anger. "Who said you could leave?"

Liam said coldly, "An Alpha's family values rules, Lucas. Your girl needs to learn some discipline."

"You're right." Lucas's eyes were icy. "Scarlett, as my girlfriend, you must watch your behavior. You need to reflect on what you did today."

With that, he dragged me down to the basement.

Before I could react, he slammed the heavy wooden door shut.

The door sealed shut, blocking out all light. I was surrounded by old boxes and pitch-black darkness.

Panic seized me. I began to breathe heavily, frantically pounding on the door.

But no matter how hard I screamed, there was no response.

I spiraled into terror.

The day my parents died in battle, they had hidden me in a dark basement.

No sound, no light, for three whole days.

Until the rescue team finally found me.

Since then, I had a severe phobia of dark, enclosed spaces.

After coming to the Ironroot Pack, Chloe had locked me in an abandoned warehouse once.

I had a mental breakdown, and my wolf almost killed her.

Fortunately, I snapped out of it in time.

Chloe never told anyone about the incident because she was terrified Alpha Alexander would find out she was bullying pack members.

But it only made her hate me more, and her methods became even more vicious.

For the past few years, even while living with Lucas, I always slept with the lights on.

Lucas was annoyed at first, but after hearing about my trauma, he held me close.

"It's okay, baby. We'll always keep the lights on. Don't be scared."

He had trouble sleeping at first, tossing and turning, but whenever I suggested turning the lights off, he refused.

"Scarlett, don't force yourself. I can adapt."

He knew. They both knew.

Yet, they still chose to punish me this way, all because I pushed Chloe.

My heart ached with a dull, throbbing pain. I curled into a corner, wrapping my arms around my shaking body.

Right. The warmth of the past was all an act. They were just playing their parts.

Scarlett POV

Two days later, Lucas opened the door, a pleasant smile on his face.

"Chloe doesn't hold a grudge against you anymore. Go get cleaned up, we're going to try on dresses."

I couldn't fight him, so I let him drag me to the bridal boutique.

As soon as we got out of the car, I saw Chloe and Liam waiting inside.

Chloe ran up to me enthusiastically. "Scarlett, you're here! Let me help you pick out the perfect dress today!"

She smiled, waiting for me to lose my temper.

I didn't show any fear or disgust. I just said blankly, "Thanks. Sorry for the trouble."

Chloe's face stiffened for a fraction of a second, but she quickly put her smile back on. She linked her arms with Lucas and Liam, saying meaningfully, "Let's try them on together. Oh, Scarlett, I forgot to tell you. I found my mate."

I smiled. "Congratulations."

The light in Chloe's eyes darkened instantly.

Next, whenever I looked at a dress for more than two seconds, Chloe would immediately call the assistant over and try it on first.

Every time she stepped out, she would hold Lucas's hand. "Lucas, what do you think? Do I look pretty?"

And Lucas would stare at her like she was the only woman in the world, showering her with compliments.

Liam hovered around Chloe too, ignoring me completely.

The boutique assistant cooed, "Oh, you're so lucky, miss..."

Chloe gasped, turning to look at me as I stood there like an outsider. "Oh, I'm so sorry, Scarlett! You're the birthday girl, you should go first."

She playfully punched Lucas's chest. "Lucas, what's wrong with you? How could you ignore your own girlfriend?"

The assistants looked awkward, while Liam let out a mocking chuckle.

Only then did Lucas look at me. "See anything you like?"

I pointed to a random dress and went into the fitting room.

When I came out, the three of them were gone.

The assistant looked at me with pity. "Ma'am, Miss Chloe said she wanted to look at jewelry, and the gentlemen went with her. You..."

"It's fine."

I took off the dress, handed it back, and walked out.

Soon, Chloe posted a new Snapchat story. It was a photo of a stunning diamond ring:

"The ring Lucas bought for me at the auction."

I glanced at it, locked my screen, and went back to packing my things.

Aside from my clothes and basic essentials, I threw away or destroyed everything I had ever given Lucas.

As for the things he bought me, I didn't touch a single one.

Just as I hid my suitcase in the closet, Lucas walked in holding a blue velvet box.

"This is for you. I got it at the auction."

I recognized it. It was the free gift that came with Chloe's ring.

I took it and set it aside.

My cold reaction made him frown.

He looked around and noticed the matching couple's mugs I used to treasure sitting in the trash can.

He raised an eyebrow. "Why did you throw the mugs away? Are you mad?"

I pressed my lips together. "No."

Lucas assumed he was right. "Is it because of the boutique? Chloe is just my childhood friend. I haven't seen her in years, so I was just paying a bit more attention to her."

He wrapped his arms around me. "There's no need to be jealous. If there was anything between us, we would've been together years ago, right? Scarlett, you're my girl. Don't you know how much I love you?"

Hearing those words, a sharp pain pierced my heart.

Lucas stroked my hair. "I'm sorry, Scarlett. I let you feel left out."

My fingers trembled. I clenched my fists so hard my nails dug into my palms.

In that split second, I wanted to scream at him. I wanted to ask him if any of it was real. Did he ever have a single ounce of genuine feelings for me over the past three years?

But I swallowed the words down.

Lucas's phone rang. He answered it quickly. "Chloe... I'm on my way..."

He hung up and rubbed my head. "I have some things to take care of. Get some rest. You're going to be the most beautiful girl at the party in a few days."

With that, he rushed out.

I sat on the bed, forcing my tears back.

Two hours later, I finished showering and got into bed.

As I was drifting off, the bedroom door suddenly opened. Lucas, who was supposed to be at the party with Chloe, walked in.

Reeking of alcohol, he ripped off his shirt, tossed back my blanket, and climbed over me.

The moment our skin met, my sleepiness vanished.

I realized with terrifying clarity:

The man on top of me was Liam.

Scarlett POV

I used every ounce of my strength to push him off and scrambled to the headboard.

Liam frowned at me, then smirked. "Still mad?"

He rubbed his temples, his gestures and voice identical to Lucas's.

If I hadn't heard Lucas say he was saving himself for Chloe, I would have never been able to tell them apart.

He leaned in again, trapping me against the headboard, our noses almost touching.

"I explained it to you today. If I loved her, I wouldn't be with you."

Liam leaned in to kiss me.

My eyes widened. I jerked my head back to avoid him and dry-heaved.

My stomach retched violently. I pushed him away and ran into the bathroom.

Liam watched me, his eyes flickering with confusion.

Inside the bathroom, I slid down the wall and curled up on the cold floor.

Outside, Liam's voice suddenly rang out.

"Did you guys hear that? She's dry-heaving. Do you think she's pregnant?"

An uproar of shocked voices came through the phone line. One of their friends yelled, "Liam, don't take this too far! What if she stalks you when the truth comes out?"

My spine went stiff. Cold sweat broke out across my skin.

I realized Liam's phone had been on a call this whole time.

Chloe's voice came through next. "Lucas, Liam, aren't you guys being too mean?"

"Mean?" Lucas's voice was freezing. "She bullied you for so long. This is what she deserves."

Chloe sounded worried. "What if Scarlett really is pregnant?"

After a brief silence, the twins spoke in unison.

"Impossible!"

Lucas's voice sounded incredibly cruel over the phone. "Even if she is, I won't let her keep it. Right, Liam?"

Liam swallowed hard. "Of... Of course."

In the next second, I threw open the bathroom door and stared at him.

He quickly ended the call and walked over. "What's wrong, Scarlett? Why do you look so pale? Are you sick? Are you... pregnant?"

I stared at him, forcing a cold smile. "No. I think I just ate too much for dinner."

The next morning, I went to a hospital in a nearby human town for a check-up.

If I used the pack healer, they would immediately notify Luna Signe.

It was noon by the time I came out of the clinic. Lucas called me.

I gave him a random address, lying that I was out buying some groceries.

Soon, his SUV pulled up.

He got out and guided me to the passenger seat. "Let's go grab some lunch."

The drive was silent. Lucas had a constant smirk on his face.

The music playing in his car was Chloe's favorite song, the one I hated the most.

When we arrived at the restaurant, Chloe and Liam were already waiting.

Chloe pointed to a cake on the table. "Scarlett, I was out of line yesterday. I waited in line for hours to buy this cake to make it up to you. You have to try it."

During lunch, Chloe kept bringing up their childhood.

"Lucas and Liam always spoiled me. When we played house, they would literally fight over who got to be my groom!"

"Once, I got stuck in a tree, and Lucas lay on the ground to be my cushion."

"And during training, they both got severely injured trying to protect me. They were bedridden for weeks."

Lucas and Liam laughed along, chatting happily, while I remained completely silent.

Suddenly, Chloe looked at me. "Scarlett, why are you so quiet? Are you still mad at me?"

"I know we had some misunderstandings in the past, but I really want us to be best friends now."

Chloe raised her wine glass, smirking at me.

I didn't move, nor did I look at her.

In the next second, I clutched my chest, gasping desperately for air.

Red, angry hives broke out across my arms. I struggled to reach for my bag.

"What's happening?!" Lucas bolted upright.

I struggled to unzip my bag.

Chloe must have poisoned my drink.

Because of my past trauma, I always kept an epinephrine auto-injector in my bag for emergencies.

My fingers finally wrapped around the injector.

But then, Chloe's weak voice whimpered. "Lucas... I feel so sick..."

She clutched her chest, her face pale as she collapsed backward.

Scarlett POV

"Chloe!"

Liam caught her just in time.

"Lucas, I think Chloe was poisoned too!"

Lucas froze on his way to me.

His expression turned dark, and he lunged toward me.

I had just pulled out my epinephrine injector, ready to stab my thigh.

Suddenly, a violent force gripped my wrist, wrenching the injector from my hand.

I looked up in utter disbelief, meeting Lucas's icy glare.

"You poisoned Chloe! Give her the medicine first!"

He turned and ran toward Chloe, feeding her the medicine without a second thought.

Sensing my gaze, Liam said coldly, "You have a stronger build, you can hold on for a bit. Chloe is fragile, she needs it more."

After giving her the medicine, Lucas scooped Chloe up and rushed out of the restaurant.

Liam ran after them. "Lucas, I'll get the car!"

I collapsed to the floor, staring at their retreating figures.

Not once did they look back.

As my consciousness faded, I saw the waiter rushing over. "Ma'am! Ma'am! Are you okay?"

I was unconscious for an entire day. When I woke up, Lucas was sitting by my bed.

He held my hand, his voice filled with concern. "Scarlett, you're finally awake. Do you feel sick anywhere?"

I pulled my hand away and closed my eyes.

Lucas didn't get angry. He brushed a strand of hair from my forehead. "Scarlett, I know you're mad at me. But Chloe's father is Alexander's top Beta. We couldn't let anything happen to her right in front of us."

"I had no choice. We're going to be family soon, we need to understand each other."

"Scarlett, you know you're the one I love, right?"

Liam appeared at the doorway. "Yeah, Lucas had no choice. We have to look at the bigger picture."

"As family, you just have to make some sacrifices."

My hands clenched under the blanket. Looking at the two men, I let out a mental scoff.

To keep up the lie, they really spared no effort.

I didn't want to argue. I closed my eyes again. "I want to rest."

Only when their footsteps faded did I open my eyes, pull out my phone, and make a call. "Hi, is this the TikTok livestream agency? I'd like to book a team for an event..."

After hanging up, I instinctively reached for the pendant around my neck.

It was gone!

Ruth's ashes and hair were inside that pendant!

Panic seized me. I scrambled out of bed, searching every corner of the room.

Just as I was about to go ask the nurses, my phone buzzed.

Chloe sent me a photo. It was my pendant!

"If you want your necklace back, come to my room right now. Otherwise, I'll flush the contents down the toilet."

Pure rage blinded me. I bolted out of my room and ran toward Chloe's VIP suite.

Inside, Chloe was standing by the window. The necklace was dangling from her finger, swinging over the ledge, ten stories up.

"Chloe, give it back!"

Chloe smirked. "Did you see my Instagram story? Wow, I thought you were so proud. But to stay with Lucas, you are willing to swallow anything."

I stared at the swinging necklace, my nails drawing blood from my palms. "Give it back to me."

Chloe dangled it further out. "If you want it, kneel down and apologize to me. Admit you are a cheap, pathetic bitch."

"Never!"
