Alpha Connor to the rescue

Carolina's jaw dropped as she stared at Liliana in bewilderment.

"You must be kidding, right?" Carolina scoffed while Liliana eyed her from head to toe.

"I am not kidding, why would I joke with someone who is a joke!" Carolina leaned back a bit with her arms crossed over her chest.

"Is it just I or you are exceptionally rude?" Carolina retorted, infuriating Liliana who was on the verge of exploding in anger. 

She couldn't decipher how Carolina had the audacity and effrontery to talk back at her and most especially, she couldn't understand what Connor saw in someone like Carolina.

To Liliana, Carolina was someone crude and classless and she wasn't even who doesn't even deserve to stand before her. The more she stared at Carolina whose eyes were a flicker of rage, the more she felt the wave of anger rushing inside of her.

Silence pervaded between Carolina and Liliana as they both stared daggers at each other. Liliana decided to break the silence as she cleared her throat before deciding to speak. 

"As you heard earlier, I am Connor's fiancee and I don't care if you had a one-night stand with him or if you are nothing but a fling to him, the only thing I want you to know is that get out of this place"

Carolina gaped at her in silence. Even without Liliana not telling her to leave, Carolina would be pleased to get out of Connor's house but she felt the need to return the vibes she got from Liliana because she couldn't just wrap her head around her rudeness.

Maybe she shouldn't blame Liliana and maybe she should blame Connor who brought her into his house despite having someone he was betrothed to. However, the more she kept her eyes fixed on Liliana, the more she couldn't stand her rude behavior.

"I think you should have a word with Connor, instead of trying to pick a fight with me" Carolina rolled her eyes to the back, lowering her head in a sarcastic way that didn't help the situation but instead, it worsened and aggravated Liliana's anger. 

She was about to turn back when Liliana charged towards Carolina, slipping her hands through her hair as she grabbed a fistful of it and jerked her backward with her hair. 

"Repeat what you said! You bitch" Liliana screamed at the top of her lungs as she grabbed another fistful of Carolina's hair till she winced in pain.

Trying to dislodge Liliana's fingers, Carolina dug her sharpened nails into Liliana's fingers till blood seeped out of them. Despite the jarring pain that Liliana felt, she endured the pain and didn't release her tightened grip on Carolina's hair. 

No pain caused by Carolina was worth the pain and betrayal she felt in her heart.

"I am going to kill you, I am going to kill you for ruining my life and thinking that you can take my place" Liliana gritted her teeth against each other as her eyes reddened with tears glistening in them.

The only thing she wanted to do was to skin Carolina alive and throw her out of the house.

Carolina saw how determined Liliana was and even though she contemplated fighting back against Liliana, she shoved the thoughts aside and decided to use the tussle between the two of them to her advantage.

She wished Carolina knew how much she didn't want to be here and how she was here against her will. Instead of trying to appease Liliana, Carolina blurted out cuss words in a bid to infuriate Liliana more.

"You fucking ogre, why not tame your man instead of picking a fight with me"

Triggering all her senses with the cuss words, Liliana screamed, releasing her grip around Carolina's hair as she pushed her to the ground, almost causing Carolina to hit her head against the flower vase. 

Scuffling her hands through her hair in anger, Liliana searched her eyes around the room till her gaze fell on Carolina's luggage. An evil smile crept at the corner of her lips as she slipped her heels off her foot.

"I am going to throw you out of this house today!" Liliana groaned, sauntering to Carolina's luggage.

Carolina expelled a sigh of relief because Liliana was doing what she had expected her to do. She couldn't explain the excitement building inside of her as she watched Liliana kick her luggage to the floor. A maid who watched the commotion between Carolina and Liliana rushed towards Carolina, helping her to her feet.

Connor was starting to get impatient as he kept tapping his fingers on his thigh in anxiety. He peered out the window and expelled an exasperated sigh because of the traffic.

"What's going on now?isn't there another route?" Connor grunted as he glanced at his wristwatch.

"There isn't any other way and the traffic should subside soon, please be patient Alpha Connor" Jack glanced at him through the rear mirror.

In a fit of rage, Connor snarled at him as his eyes blazed with fury.

"I should be patient. I should be patient till Liliana snatches the soul out of Carolina?"

Jack ducked his dead as he apologized to Connor who shut him up instantly.

"Not another word from you!"

He dipped his hands into his pocket, bringing out his phone as he dialed a call through Liliana for the umpteenth time. He pressed the phone against his ear, waiting for her to pick up the call but when she didn't answer, a growl escaped his lips as he tossed the phone by his side.

He tried reaching everyone in the house but none of them picked up his call. 

Liliana's heartbeat increased rapidly with her heart rising and falling steadily as she shot the maid who held Carolina a glare. The maid gulped, taking a step backward. 

Liliana rushed toward Carolina, gripping her by the arm as she pushed her to the ground, causing her to hit her head against the luggage.

"Get out of here, you mentally deranged woman" Liliana screamed.

Carolina stood up in anger, raising her hands as she attempted to land a slap across Liliana's cheek but a voice that sent chills down her spine left her hands hanging in the air.

"What's happening here!" Connor roared.
