Lorenzo:

I hid Clarissa behind me and stared at the door. It was pushed open and someone walked in. My body became tense and the stranger and I locked eyes. He had a smile on his face and walked casually into the living room.

I was stunned and confused. Who was he and what did he think he was doing?

“Lovely place you have here," he said lightly as he looked around the living room. “What happened to the wall though? Is this…coffee.”

He stared at the stain with intrigue and I pulled Rissa even closer to me. His mannerisms worried me. He seemed so comfortable walking into a home that wasn't his.

I sniffed the air and his scent made my heart skip a beat. He was a wolf.

Was he a rogue? One of Hazan's wolves maybe?

"Who are you?”

I snarled back at him and he finally turned to me. He smiled and glanced at Rissa who was still standing behind me.

"I will not ask again, who are you?”

I bared my fangs and could feel my wolf bubbling to the surface. I was ready to rip this man to pieces but he di

My wolf seemed uncomfortable around him though he had been nothing but wonderful to me.I sighed. Maybe it was the guilt I felt for sleeping with Dante. It still haunted me and yet, deep down in my soul, I still craved him.I had spent the night with Lorenzo. For the first time in many nights, we slept together.

I couldn't explain the relief that I felt when he let go of me turned over, and fell asleep.I didn't sleep much and spent the whole night being lost in thought.Part of me didn't believe Lorenzo but I had no evidence to doubt him earlier. It did make sense why he would be embarrassed to tell me and why he would want to sleep in a different room.But, something was off. His eyes…they seemed shady and

    Dante:“Damn it!”I was close to slamming the phone on the floor. Erica was still ignoring my calls.I growled and shoved the phone back into my pocket. I was at the hospital and it was a mess. The doctors were running around and the security officers were posted at the door, trying to keep Laura's dad and the other crazy members of the council out of the hospital.I looked at my watch. Fuck! It was getting late. What was taking them so long?I could hear the ruckus that came from outside and the council members violently yelling and demanding that they be allowed inside the hospital.I scoffed. Those old geezers were not going to come in here until the tests were done.I pulled out my phone and dialed Erica's number again. If only she would talk to me. I knew deep down that Laura wasn't pregnant for me. If only Erica would pick up my calls and I could explain everything to her…“Dante!"My ears were pierced by a high-pitched yell. I turned my head around.Fuck! What was she doing her

    Erica:Saturday rolled around the corner pretty quickly. The entire week I was on edge and it wasn't just me. Lorenzo seemed more unhinged than usual and Dante's calls came in so frequently that I had to make the painful decision of blocking him.I had to focus on this date. I was determined to make it up to Lorenzo for not being there for him when he needed me.I exhaled as I stood in front of the dressing mirror putting on earrings. Lorenzo had gotten me a new dress for the occasion. It was a beautiful dress that was just perfect for a summer evening. Not too casual and not too flashy.However, something about his gifts didn't sit well with me. They made me uncomfortable and put my wolf I'll at ease.For days she sat in my head, moping and moody. I still couldn't get her to see reason. We couldn't be with Dante.I was finally able to get my earrings on. I was about to fasten my necklace around my neck when I felt someone behind me.I turned around and gasped in surprise.“Lorenzo?"

    Clarissa:My heart skipped a beat. My plans began to feel sweaty. My heart was racing and my breath was heavy.They…they knew each other?! He never mentioned that!This is bad. This is really bad. Lorenzo was just as shocked as I was and he cast me a look of accusation but I shrugged lightly. I didn't know this. I was just as confused as he was.Erica and Javier were still looking at each other. She was flabbergasted but Javier kept a smile on his face. What was up with this guy? What did he want with Erica?“Javier…you're…you're Clarissa's mate?”He smiled and his bright golden eyes lit up. They looked so warm and innocent, nothing like the gaze he gave us when he came to my house to strike this bargain with me."Yes. She has told me a lot about you but I didn't think that it was the same Erica. This is a shock for me as well.”My heart was still beating violently. I was already uncomfortable about the way he was holding me and now, this had to come up.Lorenzo glared at me and I saw

    Erica:“Erica, will you…will you make me the happiest man and marry me?”He held my hand tenderly.I sat staring at the ring that was just a few centimeters from my fingers. My heart was pounding in my chest.How long had he had this planned? Was this why he was acting all funny these past few days?I felt the tension in the room multiply. All eyes were on me. Everyone was expecting me to say ‘yes’.My insides churned. I felt so uncomfortable.I saw the deep brown of Lorenzo's eyes. Something about them was off.I had watched movies and had seen the glee and bundled excitement that was in the man's eyes when he popped the question. He was happy and it almost felt like the happiness radiated all around and even out of the screen.But now, I was here. It was my turn and all I could feel for this man on his knees before me was…Nothing.I felt nothing for him. No love, no affection. Part of me felt that I could tell that he had no real love for me either. His beautiful brown eyes were pl

    Dante:I was in my room. It was a mess. The furniture was turned upside down and the bedding was all over the floor.I sat in the corner of the room. I was a miserable mess. A bottle of wine was a few inches from my foot.In my hands, I had another bottle, half drunk.I took another swing and the liquid filled my mouth again and filled my stomach with a comforting warmth as it went down my throat.My phone was beside me and its screen was bright. Erica's number was the only thing glaring at me. I had called her ever since the incident at the hospital but there was still nothing.“Fuck!"I slammed my head on the wall behind me. My wolf was miserable. I hadn't seen her for days and I didn't know that it would take this toll on me.I had Laura out of my life. I could be with her now. I just needed her to give me a chance to explain things. Why wouldn't she pick my calls?I took another large gulp from the bottle of wine that I had in my hand. I didn't have any other numbers that I could

    Dante: Monday rolled around the corner and I was in my office. Sunday was busy and I didn't get a wink of sleep. I had really let myself go. I had stubbles on my beard and my hair had grown unkept. I got a well-deserved haircut and shave. I needed to look perfect. I sat impatiently in my office. Erica had told me that she was coming by 9 a.m. I had come an entire hour early and now I was stuck looking frantically at my watch. The minutes seemed to pass by slowly. I felt anxiety rise inside of me. It was soul-crushing. I could barely take it. It was 8:30 a.m. I had managed to wait thirty gruesome minutes. I could… Knock! Knock! My heart skipped a beat. She was here. I readjusted my cuffs but soon the scent hit me. That wasn't Erica. The door opened and Robert came inside. He had a grin on his face as he looked me over. “What a transformation. I was getting worried about you. When you came out of your room yesterday, I almost didn't recognize you." He took up a seat and I star

    Dante: Robert turned to the door and left. I felt my claws sink into the table but I put myself under control. “Come in." Erica walked in and I felt my wolf leap at the sight of her. I could barely control myself. My breathing was erratic and my body was tense. I wanted to grab her and kiss her. I wanted to make her mine. “Erica…” Her name was like milk on my tongue and it escaped my lips in a desire-filled breathy way. Her eyes dazzled me but in their beauty, there was a deep sadness. I rushed to her. My body wanted to feel her against it. I wanted to relish the scent of her perfume and hair. I wanted… “Stop." She put a hand out in front of me and I stopped in my tracks. “Good morning, Dante.–" Her voice and mannerisms were cold. She clutched her bag close to her chest and stood away from me. “–May I have a seat?" I hurriedly gestured to a chair and she sat down. I sat down as well. My eyes feasted on her and I felt all my desires for her spring to life once more. I was s

Women are so gullible… I know, father. I just need a little time. Yes, father.” The phone call ended and I was left by myself. My father had received Laura and Lisa. Things were falling into place nicely. My heart did a little thump. I hoped my father was treating my mate well. I could only imagine how many times she would have called. She was going to be so mad when I saw her. It would take a miracle for her to forgive me, but she would understand in the end. It was

    Erica’s POVI looked at the number, stunned and in disbelief. Why was she calling me? Hadn’t she ruined my life enough? Wasn’t she and Lorenzo already tired of making a fool of me?I cut the call and placed my phone back on the bedside table. Dante looked at me in shock and made a reach for my hand but I pulled it away.“Who was it?”“None of your business,” I snapped, shifting away from him.“Erica, we need to be able to stick together and…”“Can you just leave me alone, Dante? We aren’t married. I barely recognize you as the father of my children, so I suggest that you keep your nose out of my business!”Ring!

    Erica’s POVI pulled my kids closer to me and glared at Pearl. I should have known that she would be here. I watched her lock eyes with Dante, but every few minutes, he would steal glances at me and my kids. I couldn’t explain how much I hated her.“Dante, I don’t know what she has done to brainwash you, but she is lying, and you know it. She is barren. She can’t have…”“I am not going to stand for this any longer, Pearl. These are my kids and if you don’t get out of my way, I’ll make sure that you are thrown out of this place.”His voice boomed and even the kids jumped in fright. They had never seen him this angry. Pearl stepped back and shot me a hateful look. I gave one back to her; the feeling was very mutual.He picked up Elsa and turned to one of the maids, ignoring Pearl’s presence completely.“Have the chef prepare dinner for the five of us. We had a long trip, and we are famished.”The maid disappeared into the house, and we followed her behind, as Dante pushed Pearl out of h

    Dante’s POV“Uhmm… I believe we should get going. It is getting late and we… might miss our flight.”I watched Erica gently pull her hand from her daughter's grasp and grab her suitcase. My heart fell and her daughter looked confused. I sighed and was at the same time, grateful. It seemed she hadn’t told her kids about what happened between us. My heart pounded at the thought.It wasn’t too hard to see that they loved me. I could only imagine how much hate they would have towards me if they found out the truth.She took Ethan’s hand gently and they walked to the car that was waiting outside. From what I had noticed. He was the eldest of the three, and he was a spitting image of me, but I could see a bit of his grandfather in him. I could feel his heart inside of him.I watched the kids go after their mother but little Elma still clung to my fingers, looking up at me with a big smile. She was so sweet.“Elma, dear, could you please join your mother outside? I need to talk to your ‘fat

    Erica’s POVI grabbed my suitcase and looked at the contents. I hadn’t even removed anything from it except the book. I looked at my clothes and sighed. I couldn’t believe that I was going to do this, but this was what was best for the kidsand my pack.I felt a tear come to my eye but I wiped it off. I shouldn’t cry. I should have known that it was going to come to this. I should have known that he would find out soon enough and that he would do anything in his power to get them back into his life. I couldn’t forget my meeting with him and the head of the council burst in. They looked ravenous and desperate, quite like the counselors in my pack who seemed very hell-bent on keeping me from taking over from my father.There was a soft knock at the door and my steady gaze was broken.“Come in.”The door opened and my mother opened the door and smiled sadly at me. I tried to give her a reassuring smile but my lips were trembling. It was like I was going back in time but it was a little d

    Erica's POV"You just let him leave?! After what he did?! After the disturbance that he caused? I have never seen the level of such disregard at the Alpha's funeral. He should be ashamed of...""Enough!" I snapped at counselor Rufus. I was sick of his talking.He was lucky I was being civil. I should have spoken my mind the day we were planning my father's funeral.He looked at me with shock, but it soon morphed into anger and disdain."How dare you? I am the head of the council and...""And I am the daughter of the Alpha and the heir to his throne. I am well aware of who you are, Counselor Rufus and I assure you, you are beneath me."His mouth was wide and the murmurs in the crowd intensified. It was high time I put everyone in their place."I am my father's daughter and I want his cremation to be peaceful. I don't care for your gossip and back talk and anyone that dares to interrupt the decorum will answer to me..."I could feel my anger rising inside of me. I could feel my eyes glo

    Erica's POVI stood there in the rain, staring at him. Was he out of his mind?! Did he think that he could just show up at my father's funeral unannounced and spew this bullshit? Hadn't he caused me enough pain already?I slapped him again and he let me. He didn't move an inch and moved his jaw in pain to readjust it.“You can hit me all you want, Erica. But I am not leaving here without the kids. You can't win this battle. I stated that are mentally unfit to take care of them and have a certain ‘illness’ that makes you lose control of yourself. You are a danger to them.”I was stunned."Did you just call me mentally unstable? You think I'm insane?!”I could feel my anger building. Who did he think he was?!“I didn't say that you were…”"Don't you dare think that you can play coy with me! You know what you implied!”I sunk my fist into his face and he reeled backwards. I watched as blood streamed down from his face to the puddle of water beneath our feet.He pulled his hand away and h

    Laura’s POVI watched as Lisa and her father breezed through the crowd. It wasn’t difficult to tell that she was thoroughly bored. I couldn’t blame her. Her father looked like a stuffy stuck-up man.I turned my head and caught sight of Rusev watching me like a hawk. I grumbled. I hated him. Why did my mate think it a good idea to leave me stuck with him?I shadowed Mr. Hans as he dragged his daughter along, greeting dignitaries and other stuck-up people like himself.A waiter passed me and I grabbed another glass of champagne. How was I going to get Lisa away from her old man?My mind kicked into overdrive, and soon, an idea hit me. I sighed and winced in disgust as it continued to take shape in my head. It wasn’t pleasant but I had to do it. I guess that was one other purpose of the dress I wore.I took another sip of my champagne and strutted sexily towards Mr. Hans. He caught a glimpse of me through the corner of his eye and was soon fully facing my direction.A dirt smirk crept on
