Dante's POV“Yes… I would like a meeting…what do you mean? No! You work for me and I will not tolerate it! I pay you good money! Fine. I expect you in three days.”I pressed the red button and ran my hands through my hair. My skin felt hot as I seethed in anger. That damned lawyer! I expected him to come today.I sat down on my chair and my thoughts buzzed like an old static TV. Erica had my kids this whole time and she had kept them away from me.I didn't know what it was but my fingers clenched tightly. Was it fear? Regret? Anger?I sighed and buried my head in my hands. I just wanted my kids back and I was willing to do anything to get them…“Alpha Dante?"I raised my head and saw my Beta standing at the door. His face was stern and his aura was grim. He had been that way for as long as I had known. It was an unsettling feeling but I knew he was angry with me.“What is it?" I snapped back.“The council wishes to see you."I rolled my eyes. I thought we had been over this. Couldn't

Erica's POVI froze. My heart raced and I was silent. My throat felt dry and itchy and my head scratched as tension continued to build up.I… I hadn't seen Javier since my wedding. No calls, texts, and…“Miss Erica? Should we let him in?"The nurse’s voice pulled me out of my thoughts and I started at her, my head still buzzing and trying to make a decision.“Isn't Javier the man that came with Clarissa? Did he know that Clarissa was cheating on him with Lorenzo?" My mother asked me.I swallowed hard. I wasn't sure but I felt that he knew something that I didn't.“Let him come in."The nurse nodded and left the room and I gripped the sheets hard with a mix of anger and hate. I had so many questions to ask him.There was soon a soft knock, and the door opened, and a head poked in. His golden, honey-colored eyes caught me off, guard. I could still feel the warmth in them but now, it was unsettling and sinister. Something about it wasn't right.“Erica…”"Javier.”I couldn't hide the cont

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 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

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
