Katherine:
I frowned as I heard the girls with Alaria, gossiping about me as if I were their chitchat of the night.
My hands shook in both rage and pain, and though I knew to stay quiet, for now; I
was things were going to escalate in a way that I
well aware that if I didn’t react, didn’t want them to. And if I were to allow her in the pack, then I knew that I was bringing in the
demoness into my home.
I couldn’t risk her finding out about Alonso, and knowing her, she was going to be able to connect dots or find out about things
that I managed to hide for those years. I wasn’t going to lose what I built because of her.
I looked at the kids‘ playroom for a second, and I debated. I needed to be smart, and the one way to do so was to get inside her
son’s head. He had to be on my side, that was the only way for me to get Enzo to look at me.
I walked to the room and smiled at the woman who stood, taking the names of those who wanted to put their children inside the
kids‘ room. I knew that I wouldn’t be able to approach the child in there. It was a safe ground anyway, and doing something that
was foolish was not going to help me in any way. I knew that well enough, and I knew not to cross the limits that were placed by
the high table. I was no fool to do so, and I knew at this point that I was on a brisk of losing everything, and that wasn’t
something that I wanted to risk.
are yours as I have not seen you bringing any of them here.”
She was an elf, of course, the woman would know who moved in and out of the room in a blink. I smiled and shook my head in
response, crossing my arms over my chest as I nodded at Ashton. “He is my husband’s son. I was merely admiring him as I was
yet to be able to properly speak to or get to know him. You know, children at his age when a stepmother comes and his own
mother. It can be a little. difficult.”
“I see,” she said, nodding at the stairs behind her as two women entered with their kids. “Please, it is not allowed to be looking at
the children when they are not yours, and the parents can end up getting disturbed with it.”

“Oh, my apologies, it was not in my intentions.” I said, and she nodded. I knew to hold my ground as I was going to be a public’s
image. With everyone now watching, keeping an eye on what I would and wouldn’t do with Alaria being here, I knew that the
number of rumors were going to be countless, and I knew that they were going to be annoying.
“Please,” she said, nodding at the door and I nodded. I took a step back and walked out of the room without saying another
word. My eyes caught sight of Yildez as she sat with her husband. Her eyes met mine for a second before she tightened her arm
around her husband, and the man smiled before leaning in to connect their lips. I knew that it was only for show. For their image,
they needed to pretend that they were lovers. It was only a shame that he’s had more mistresses in the past two years than all
I walked toward them and clapped my hands, smiling as I caught their attention. Yildez’s words played in my ears as she and the
others gossiped about me. The mockery in their tones was not one that I was going to let go of, and I knew to make them pay
where it would be hurting them most..
“I take it that the two of you have decided to put your differences aside? The fact that we can see you being lovers again is
amazing.” I said, and Yildez’s eyes. widened as she heard me speak. I smiled at her before I shook my head in question. “I didn’t
expect you to forgive him as easily after Marissa, but I am sure that he’s made it up to you in amazing ways. You know, he
always did have his own methods when it came to stealing your heart after a scandal.”
“What are you doing, Katherine?” Yildez asked, shaking her head in question.
“There is nothing to be ashamed of, Yildez. You know, not everyone can have my relationship with Enzo.” I said, making the
woman frown. “It is amazing that you managed to work things out in the end. After you said that you wanted to, file a divorce this
time, I didn’t think that things would ever be fixed.”
Jeff, her husband, looked at her and shook his head before taking a step back, clearly annoyed with the woman.
“Jeff...” she said, forcing herself to stop as she saw that her voice had caught the attention of a passersby couple. And I knew
that the last thing that she wanted was to find herself in the news for trying to follow her husband. “What are you trying to do,
Katherine?”
“Me? Not at all,” I said, shaking my head at the woman as a fake smile formed on

my lips. “This was just a small reminder of who you were choosing to side against. Anyhow, I have to go and see where my
husband is, and if I were you, I think that it would be best to catch mine before you find him under the sheets with another. You
know, he tends to have that habit whenever he sees that you are useless to him...”
