Erika Itsumi Novels & Stories

He pulled away from me, arranging myself on his lap. “Why do you act like you do not know me?” I realized I was still on his lap and I hurriedly got down from his body. “Please don’t try to touch me. What happened here was a mistake.” I arranged my dress. “Yes, you’ve figured me out with a sly kiss. I am Erica, the same Erica you treated like trash. Look, Dante, I am only here for business and because my father had asked me to.” I faced the car window.

Although, it’s impossible for someone to sneak up on a shifter, so it’s a moot point. “What’s her name?” I ask. “Tanya Russell, but her stage name is Erika Edwards.” “ERIKA EDWARDS?” I ask. I may be a shifter, but even I know who she is. “I take it you’ve heard of her?” he asks, his eyebrow going up. “EVERYONE has heard of her, Alpha,” I say. “Not everyone. I hadn’t heard of her, but I’ll admit, I asked the twins and Reagan, and they have heard of her. I got a lot of eye rolls because I didn’t know who she was,” he says, smiling.

Erica seemed busy fixing her hair and clothes, which had gotten a bit disheveled from Arnold's hands earlier. "Kei Hakuta, huh?" Arnold repeated slowly. He was a bit bothered by the name Erica mentioned. He knew that Kei was their handsome Japanese client who owned many companies. "Come on, we need to leave now. Kei doesn't like people who are late," Erica urged. "How do you know that? Haven't you only met him once since you returned to Jaketon?" Arnold asked, puzzled. "Kei was my business partner when I was in the States. We've known each other for a long time. Come on, Arnold, hurry!" Erica grabbed her bag and quickly headed out.

Mila interrupted with a loud, ecstatic squeal, "That's perfect! We can throw her a party! That will give Erika time to get here. I'm sure Jackson and her will be able to leave their beta's in change for a couple of days..." Brodie's sister, Erika was three years older than him and had found her mate two years ago when she was travelling. She loved adventure and wanted to see as much of the world as she could before she settled down with a mate. Erika had met jackson, future alpha of the Springcrest pack during the Fesitval of Snow in Svellfold.

Her voice made everyone look at Lucy, and made them stunned to death. “Lucy!!” Charles exclaimed in shock. “Ecxuse me! How many times do I have to tell you, she is not some Lucy and all, she is my boss, from Ohio, Miss Lana Wang!” Ericka came out from Lucy’s behind out of the blue, “Are these people in Country A are obsessed with some Lucy?” She said as she rolled her eyes at them.

“I’m starving.” She sat. Reached for a plate. Began serving herself like nothing was wrong. Lidia hesitated. Just for a second. Then followed. She sat slowly. Her movements still cautious, her eyes still scanning. Even as she reached for the food. Even as she ate. The taste barely registered. Because her mind— Was elsewhere. Erika, on the other hand, ate like she meant it. Relief. Hunger. Excitement. All blending together. “You know,” she said between bites, glancing around the room, “this might actually work out for us.”

Erika pouted, fluttering her lashes. “Save you? Oh no, you got it all wrong. I'm not here to save you, Erika. Though I might do other things to you… like… maybe stabbing you?”

She wanted more of it. "I think you're right," Erika said in a soft voice. She wanted to make sure that Madri knew she was saying more than she was verbalizing. She arched her back a bit, pushing her breasts into Madri's hands. This felt fun, it reminded her bungee jumping. Doing something crazy and fun and not caring about anything else.

"I'd like to kill her 'cause she'd be so useless to you. She won't let you grow." "I won't let you lay a finger on her," I grunted. "Not when your life is all in my hands right now," he flashed his claws under the moonlight. Just then, Ari's voice reached me through the mind link. "What is it, Ari?" I asked her. "Erika is in a terrible state right now. Her body's vibrating, temperature drastically surged up. Nothing I do to bring it down works!" She panicked. "Close your eyes let me switch into your vision," I said to her.

Erika was sitting on the edge of the pool. Even though she had donned the overly sexy bikini that Silver had made her buy to wear indoors, she had put on a lace sarong over it that hid bare skin. She moved her legs into the water gently making ripples that kept her entertained while she was lost in thought. The cell phone next to her rang and she grabbed it quickly, frowning slightly. That number again. She had forgotten to turn it off again after her boss called her to send her the work plan for when she returned. He hung up and turned it off, setting it aside again.
