Chapter 295
The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn Chapter 296 ~SCARLETT~
“Have you ever noticed anything strange with Carter on full moons?” I ask ra. It’s been a few days
since myst encounter with him.
It’s been on my mind constantly. I couldn’t get it out. Something strange was happening, and maybe my
sister would have a better idea than I did.
She shrugs, “Just that one thing I mentioned to you before. He was always busy on those days. He
canceled the dates. He never showed up sometimes. I never saw him on the night of any full moon.”
This added to my suspicions. Something happened on a full moon. ra seemed to be convinced that
he was cheating on all these full moons, but I felt like there was something else.
He had to be keeping something from her.
“Why are you suddenly asking about him?” She asks me. “Did he say something to you?”
I bit down on my lip. I didn’t mention to ra what happened. I couldn’t bring myself to tell her the truth.
How would she react knowing Carter entered my room and did unspeakable things to my body? How
would she react if she ever found out that a part of me enjoyed every second?
The worst part about this entire thing was the fact that Carter didn’t remember a single thing. He had no
idea what he’d done to me.
I couldn’t get that look on his face out of my mind.
What are you hiding, Carter?
“There’s a beach party tonight,” ra informs me suddenly. “Carter and his family will be there. You’re
coming with me.”
I knew by now that saying no would not help me. This time, I nod my head without bothering to
comin. A part of me wanted to see Carter again. I hate to admit it to myself, but it was the truth; a big
part of me was desperate to see him. I wanted to be near him, and I didn’t know why.
Was it that kiss? The first one or the second one?
Was this why all the girls got so hooked on him? Were they ruined after just one kiss from him? Did
they all crave more like I did right now?
The right thing would be to run and hide. Staying far away from Carter before things worsened would
be the best decision. However, I couldn’t, not now. I had to see him.
“You’re not going toin?” ra asks suspiciously.
I shook my head. “What’s the name of the beach?”
“Radiant Bay.” She answers me. “It’s a big party; prepare to get much-unwanted attention.”
. . .
We were at the beach party after getting dressed for over two hours. ra insisted that our make-up
and outfits had to be perfect. She wanted to blow Carter’s mind away.
“Look, it’s Griffin,” ra informs me. He was one of my sister’s good friends. I knew him also. He
wasn’t a jerk like many of the men I knew.
“Good to see you.” Griffin greets us. “I’m sure you all know my future sister-inw, Autumn. And these
girls need no introduction either.”
I smiled brightly at her; she looked a bit nervous, and I wanted to make her morefortable.
“We’ve barely spoken in the past; I’m sure we can be great friends,” I inform her.
“That would be great since Autumn can do with some new friends after what happened with Anya,”
Griffin adds.
I gave ra a knowing look. We knew exactly what he was talking about. What Autumn was going
through was horrible. Anya wasn’t precisely a kind person, though she had plenty of others fooled.
“You don’t need to feel ufortable around us,” ra assured her.
“How about we don’t even bring that up,” I add.
Griffin grins, “I knew you girls were my safest option to introduce Autumn to.”
We smiled as he turned to her and added, “I told you I would ensure you weren’t ufortable.”
We were also going to help with that.
“I’m going to meet a few guys from the team,” Griffin excused himself as he walked over to the football
yers.
It was their after-party for the match Carter and his team had won. It was the exact game that he kissed
me in front of hundreds of spectators.
“Do you want a drink, Autumn?” ra asks her.
“I don’t drink.” She responds.
My sister smiles, “Scarlett doesn’t either, but I’m ensuring she gets drunk today.”
She was what? No one said anything about making me drunk.
“Is that the famous bride of Atticus Fawn?” Someone asks behind us.
I knew that annoying voice. I hated it.

I roll my eyes as Amy joins us, “Why do you show up everywhere we are?”
“I wasn’t talking to you, darling. I was talking to the girl who stole her best friend’s boyfriend. But you
should know plenty about that since you’re also stealing your sister’s boyfriend.”
She was getting on my freaking nerves.
“Ex-boyfriend.” I snap. “And I’m not stealing anyone. Neither did Autumn. Get your facts straight before
you go speaking nonsense.”
“A little defensive?” Amyughs.
I was defensive and maybe it’s because I already felt guilty.
“You’re not wanted here, Amy.” ra hissed. “Leave before we make you.”
Amy flips her hair and walks away.
“I’m sorry about her.” I apologize. “She’s a pain in our ass.”
“It’s okay,” Scarlett assures me. “I know this is something I’ll have to get used to now that I’m marrying
Atticus.”
“Are you sure you don’t want that drink now?” ra asks her.
I watch as Autumn grabs the bottle out of ra’s hand, totally surprising me. She takes a big gulp, and
I’m shocked to see her act this way. She must be under a lot of stress.
I could learn from her. I was also under a lot of stress. I couldn’t get Carter out of my damn mind. I
couldn’t get his touch, scent, or lips out of my head. I felt like I was about to go crazy.
There was still no sign of Carter. Where was he? And why was I looking for him?
I grab the bottle from Scarlett and take a bigger gulp than she’d done.
“I thought I would have to beg the two of you more than this.” raughs as she watches us take
turns.
I couldn’t stop it. I had to drown the madness before it consumed me.
