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: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 still despera

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 stared at him

Erica:I was dumbfounded. He stood there, at the door staring at me. He refused to move.My heart was trembling. I had to go. I couldn't stay any longer.“Dante, move out of the way."“No. Not until you say what I asked you to say, Erica. If you really want to leave, tell me, make me believe that you would rather spend your life with Lorenzo than be with me.I opened my mouth but I felt it clamp shut. I couldn't lie. I had exhausted all my lies. Any more and my heart would shatter to pieces.His bright green eyes stared into my soul. My body was captured with fear, fear of what was to come if I kept staying here."I am waiting, Erica.”His voice made my heart skip a beat. I still couldn't say a word. Damn this! Why did this have to happen to me now?I averted my gaze and stared at the ring on my finger. I ran a finger across it and the bumpy stone stubbed my fingers a little bit.I didn't love Lorenzo. Being with him felt like being with a stranger. Kissing him, touching him felt revo

Erica:“Dante put me down!"He carried me out of the car and I was still on his shoulder. My head began to hurt from being upside down for so long.“Dante!"I continued to beat his back but he didn't flinch. He carried me inside the house and slammed the door shut. The loud bang rattled my ears and I closed my eyes briefly to stifle the headache that was almost caused by the racket.Finally, it stopped and I could open my eyes.I looked around. No one came to my aid. Not even his obnoxious sister came running downstairs to yell at me.I gasped. There was no one home.“Dante, stop this!"I was still yelling and beating him but he didn't care.Smack!“Ahhh!"I groaned in pain as I felt something flat come down on my butt.He spanked me and I felt my tongue grow limp. I fell silent immediately and stopped moving.He said nothing and began to head upstairs. I was still on his shoulder and regretting the decision that I had made to come and see him.No. I was lying to myself again. I didn'

Erica: “You? Show up as my Luna? No way, I don’t want people identifying me as the Lycan King who got married and still has nothing to show.” Dante’s words pierced my heart so hard that they made tears build up in the corner of my eyes immediately. I held the shirt I was folding tightly. I fixed my eyes on Dante, my husband. He was seated on his work table in his room and he had a file in his hand.Dante is a very tall man and his looks were to die for, he looked like those huge tall basketballers, only he was bigger and a slap from him would probably kill me. I was the exact opposite of him, I was very tiny, and could barely stand for myself. While I was a useless Luna who couldn’t bear a child, Dante was a strong Lycan king, who wanted a child badly. “Dante.” I tried to speak but he shut me up immediately. He probably knew what I wanted to say, I wanted to tell him that his words had hurt me but he was tired of me saying that to him. “If you are tired of me telling you this,
