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

    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:“I am going to make love to you, Erica."My heart skipped a beat and I froze in position. I couldn't move. All I could do was stare at his face.My tongue was dry. My body was limp and weak. But his words filled me with new desires and I felt my pussy become wet all over again.“Dante…”"No words, Erica. Unless those words are you screaming my name.”He silenced me with another kiss and gently pushed me back to the bed. He pulled away and I watched him feast his eyes on my body.His hands cupped my breasts and his thumb and index fingers played with the nipples.I arched closer to him. I wanted to feel more of his warm touch. I didn't want him to stop.I watched him lower his head and his lips covered my nipple."Dante…ahhhhhnn."His tongue played with the tip. I wrapped my arms around him and pulled him closer. I wanted to more of him.His lips traveled down to my navel and his hands stroked my sides.A shiver ran down my spine and my hands gripped the bedding.Finally, he sto

    Clarissa:I was in my bed. I had refused to get up. My phone was ringing nonstop.I knew who it was but I refused to answer. It has been ringing like that for two days straight. It hurt to ignore him but I had no other choice.Why did he do that? Why did he have to propose to her?I mean, he didn't even tell me that he was going to do it. It came out of the blue and I was powerless to stop it.My heart shattered right there in the restaurant. I felt like a fool.The ringing soon stopped and I all fell silent for a while.“Clarissa!"I was wrong. He was right outside my door. I squeezed myself tighter into my bedsheets. I closed my eyes tightly and fought the urge to go downstairs to open the door for him.“Clarissa!"He yelled my name again and each time he did, I felt my heart skip a beat. I wanted to see him but my heart hurt.What was he even doing here? Wasn't he supposed to be with Erica?I buried myself deeper into the sheets and covered my head. Tears streamed fiend my face. I

    Clarissa:He ripped off my dress and I lay there naked before him.His eyes feasted on me and my face was flushed with color.“Clarissa, you look so beautiful. You are all mine. No one can have you the way I do.”He lowered his head and his lips covered mine again. His hands wandered to my breasts and his fingers massaged my nipples.I wanted to moan but all I could do was make muffled sounds. My body arched closer to him.I wanted to feel him against me. My hands grabbed his shirt and tugged at it furiously. I wanted him to take it off, I wanted to feel his bare skin against mine.His fingers massaged my clit even more, diving in and out of me and making slushing sounds as my juices covered his fingers.“Lorenzo! Please!”My breath was frantic and my eyes were rolling inside my head. I had never felt pleasure this intense and raw. We had been fucking each other for a long time but I had never felt this hungry for him.He pulled his lips away from me and through my blurry vision, I co

    Laura:I sat alone in my room. It was dark and I had a bottle of wine open in front of me.It was a quiet afternoon. I swirled my drink and sighed loudly. Could today be any worse?I sighed even louder and took a sip of my drink.“Damn you, Dante!"I cursed him. I hated that man with passion and I wanted him to disappear from the face of the earth.I closed my eyes and the ordeal I went through at the hospital played back again in my mind. That fool had embarrassed me.I took another sip and a deep breath escaped my lips.Since he banished me from his home, I have been hiding out in my home. My father had called me but I had ignored all of his texts and calls.Pearl had so been bothering me but I had ignored her as well. Unlike her shameless brother, she was kind-hearted and on my side.I took another sip and the warmth of the liquid sok began to set in. It was about time.If it hadn't been for her and her baseless loyalty, I wouldn't have been able to get this far with my plan.I sig

    Erica’s POVThe guards stopped him before he could come any closer.“What are you doing here?!” My mother yelled as the guards blocked Dante’s path towards me.“I need to see Erica. This is important.”My mother’s eyes bore down on him. I turned away; I could barely look at him. Did he come here to ruin my fathers funeral as well? Wasn’t he tired of ruining my life?“Guards! Take him away!”They stormed up to him and Dante began to back away.“Erica! I need to talk to you! Tell them to stop!”His voice calling my name was driving me insane. It was because of him that my life was ruined. Couldn’t he just stop meddling in my life.“Erica!”The guards grabbed him and began to drag him away. I watched him as he struggled and yelled at me.

    Laura’s POV“Room service!”I put on my bathrobe and walked to the door. I didn’t order room service. I clutched my robe tighter to my body and opened the door just a crack.A lady stood there with a box in her hands. Was that a delivery for me?“Are you Miss Laura?”“Yes.”I felt a little emboldened and opened the door a little wider. The lady was dressed in formal wear, a little too formal for her to be in the room service business.“I have a package for you.”She handed it to me, and I looked at the tag attached to it. I couldn't help but smile.“I may not be with you, but I want all eyes to be on you and for every man to drool at the sight of you and wish you were theirs. But they can’t have you. You are MINE. Mate.”I smiled and felt a warm fuzzy feeling bubble inside of me. He wasn’t here, but he knew how to make me feel like he was.“Thank you.”I hurried back into my room, trying my best not to squeal like an excited seven-year-old. I hadn’t expected a dress for the party. I

    Erica’s POVMy fingers were trembling as I did Ethan's bow tie. I had tried not to cry. It had been hard to keep my emotions in check while we planned the funeral. Everyone was still scared of me but the condolences they gave brought tears to my eyes every time I heard them.Today would be the first time in weeks that I would lay eyes on my father’s body and would never see it again.“Don’t be sad, Mom.”Ethan pulled me into a hug as soon as I lifted my fingers from his bowtie. He was such a sweet boy.“I am fine, love.-”I stroked his hair and kissed it.“-Go and find your sisters while I get ready.”He hurried away and I was left alone in my room. I looked at the mirror one more time and noticed the tears in my eyes starting to fall. My mascara was slightly smudged and I hurriedly wiped my face and did a fresh application.My thoughts were weighed down by thoughts of my father. It was draining. I couldn't imagine how disappointed he was in me. Mom kept telling me that it wasn’t true

    Clarissa's POV“Lorenzo, please wake up."I sat beside him as he lay on the living room couch with his head on my lap. His forehead was covered in sweat and his eyes were blank and white.My heart was racing. I didn't know what to do. I wanted to give him CPR, but I didn't know if what he had was infectious.I couldn't count the number of times I had placed my head on his chest to make sure that his heart was still beating. His breath was faint, and his skin was clammy and cold.I couldn't take this anymore. I should have called for help sooner and damned the fact that the entire pack probably hated us.My fingers shook as I grabbed my phone and began to dial the numbers.Suddenly, Lorenzo gasped and his eyes cleared up slowly. My fingers shook even more as I watched him silently take in the room.“Lorenzo," I whispered, terrified to the core.His eyes finally fell and focused on me. I held my breath.“Rissa?"He tried to sit up but I slowly eased his head back into my lap.“Don't try

    Erica's POVThe meeting finally came to an end and I was grateful. I remained seated with my mother and we watched the counselors leave.Counselor Rufus gave me a death stare before he left the room. I turned to look at my mother and her face was impassive until we could no longer see his fake hair through the open door.“Good riddance!" she exclaimed, and her face relaxed, and she smiled at me.I returned with a nervous grin though my fingers were knotting frantically on my lap.“It's going to be alright, Erica. I will not let the counselors treat you like trash. They are just a bunch of old fools that are stuck in the past. I believe that you will make a good Luna."Her words made my nervous smile fade.“You know that I won't be a good, Luna. You saw how they looked at me. Everyone is afraid of me. I can't even get through the hallway without a maid or guard seeing me and flinching.”I lowered my head and heard my mother sigh. Her fingers intertwined with mine, stopping my frantical

    Clarissa's POVMy eyes watered as I chopped up the onions. I set the knife down and paced around the counter as the broth bubbled in the pot.As I stared at the boiling pot, a flash of Erica came into my mind. Her monstrous form and the death of her father. The purple hue on his skin was exactly the same as that on Lorenzo's arm.It just didn't make sense. I asked my assassin to kill Erica. Why didn't he do it? Was he a fraud?I had tried to contact him severally, but his phone rang, and there was no answer. Had I been duped?I gritted my teeth at the thought and turned my attention to the bubbling broth. It was time to put the vegetables.The onion went in first, and then the carrots and peppers.This was my first time in Lorenzo's home back at our pack. It was beautiful. Luxurious, nothing like my home back at the pack Erica was sent to.My watery eyes scanned the room and I exhaled. There had been so much drama in just a few days.A shiver ran down my spine. I didn't expect to see

    Erica's POVI walked to the meeting hall and felt my breath being hitched in my throat. The maids, as they walked past me, gave me terrified greetings and hurried off in the other direction.It did nothing for my nerves. I could only imagine what the council was going to say.I soon reached the door that led to the hall and stood outside of it for a while. My heart was racing, and I was clutching it with my left hand as if it would do something to make it calm down.“Easy, Erica. Easy. This is just a meeting. Nothing more."I pushed the glossy black wooden door open and finally walked into the room. As soon as I was guided across the carpet to My spot beside my mother, I could feel all eyes on me.It was so hard to fight the urge to look over the room. A few of the counselors were whispering as I walked in, and above three were staring at me, their faces white with fear.I sat down next to my mother and the seven counselors stood in greeting. The man who sat at my left-hand side was f

    Erica's POVI lay in bed quietly. The silence in the house was thick, but I could hear the whispers of the maids as they passed my room door.They were all scared and I couldn't blame them.I had asked my mother to watch the kids for me while I got some time to rest. This all felt extremely overwhelming for me.I felt strange being here. My father was gone, and it was like a big chunk of the pack house had been ripped off.I buried myself deeper into my covers, the comforter soaking up my silent tears as they rolled down my cheeks.“I miss you, Dad. I am so sorry that I failed you. I… I was just so weak and I didn't know what to do…”The tears choked my words and soon burst out but were muffled by the comforter.If only he was alive, he would probably know what to do. I wasn't even sure about how to get the Living Gem. Worst of all, I didn't even know what to do with it once I got it.A cold draft of wind blew through the window, chilled my fingers, and dried up my tears, leaving stre
