Erica:
I walked softly to the bed, I placed my hand on Elma’s forehead to check if she really had a fever.
“She doesn’t.” I replied after a minute of observing.
“She just cried for too long.” Cassie, my children’s nanny nodded.
“Cassie. pack their bags, we will be leaving the pack for a while. Pack a lot.”
“I want you to come along with me, I will never be able to cope with the work I have to do and
the kids.” She smiled, even in situations like this Cassie would smile, she is such a wonderful soul.
Cassie left my room to pack things that Elma, Elsa and Ethan would need while I stayed back in
my room.
I looked at myself in the mirror, I didn’t look anything like the lady Dante had abandoned six
years ago. He will not recognize. I tried to convince myself
I had recently cut my brown hair short and I had dyed it black.
I needed no one to tell me that I had become better and stronger, I have raised my children all on
my own and Dante was not there and even when I go to his pack I will never let him know that
we have children.
The next day came faster than I expected. We had an early flight and it was so hard getting the
kids ready but Cassie and I handled it and we were taken to the airport.
We couldn’t use my father’s private jet because it was damaged.
“Alpha Dante is expecting us and he will be here to pick us up.” Rico, my bodyguard explained to
me and it almost got me choking.
“Rico, I want you to take the kids and Cassie with you the moment we land, they should go before
me or you can tell him not to bother picking us up, we will find our way to his pack house.”
“It’s too late for that ma’am cause he insisted on picking you up.”
“Okay, let Cassie and the kids go before me then.”He nodded.
Our flight landed and as instructed, Rico escorted Cassie and the kids out of the airport to the
house we had booked to stay in. We definitely would not be staying in the pack house with
Dante, I cannot stand him.
“Ma’am shall we?” My other bodyguard asked and I nodded.
My heart was racing very fast, I tried to keep my steps in order and walk like nothing was wrong.
My security was on standby in case anything was happening.
Who would believe that I was going to be seeing Dante today?
Yesterday I got engaged and had talked about how much I hated Dante and didn’t want to see
him but today I am meeting up with him for the safety of my pack.
You can do this Erica, you can, you’re the strong Alpha that your father has raised and you will act
like seeing Dante doesn’t give you a chill.
As we walked out of the airport, there I saw him, tall and as huge as he has always been, I felt my
body tremble just at his sight.
His scent filled my nose, strong, musky and chocolate scent. It was intoxicating. My wolf Kira
jumped all over the place because she was happy to finally see Dante, she’s still attached to him.
He was there with his guards, he backed me as he had his phone glued to his ear. It felt so good
to see the strong Almighty King Dante wait to welcome me.
Even if my pack was facing crises, we are still strong.
Dante was on a call and I was a bit away from him but I could feel him, and smell him.
I got closer and heard him speak. “I will call you back shortly.” It’s been a long time since I heard
his voice, as he said that he turned and faced me.
His jaw dropping and lips echoing my name.
“Erica.” He could smell me, I knew he could.
Dante looked at me from head to toe, unable to believe that he was seeing me. I saw the
disbelief in his eyes.
“Erica?” he called my name again, unsure that I was the one.
“Alpha King Dante, it’s such a pleasure to finally meet you.” I stretched my hand to him, feigning
not knowing him.
I knew he was going to be shocked but the expression on his face gave him out. It was too much
for such a man like him. I mean he look startled, like he had seen a ghost and the next meeting he
was smiling and then stuttering
“Erica?” He stuttered.
“You know me?” I asked and he nodded, he closed his mouth and smiled.
“I didn’t know I was expecting a female, I was to be greeted by the presence of Alpha Roland.” He
gave a very weak smile. Oh I could see through the fake smile he gave, he was terrified to see me
and would never have believed that I would have made it out alive.
I am back now Dante and after my pack gets the help we want I’ll make sure I make you pay for
all of the sufferings that you caused me.
“My father Alpha Roland had sent me on his behalf.” He hitched his brows.
“Your father is Alpha Roland?” He asked and I nodded.
I’m sure he was puzzled and would never have believed it, I mean six years ago, I was an orphan
and was rejected by a lot of people in the pack and today I stand in front of him as the daughter
of an Alpha.. How ironic?.
“Alpha Dante, I think we can discuss all of this later, I had a long flight and I would love to settle
down.” I could barely face him again, I was trying to act like I was strong and didn’t know who he
was but I felt like he could see through me. Like he could hear all that I was thinking in my head
because I was so nervous.
“Sure.” He nodded and we began to walk out of the airport.
Dante pulled open the door of the black SUV for me and I got in and he followed. I would be
riding with him since we had something to brief each other off then I’ll head to the house we
booked to see my babies.
The ride started, the atmosphere was very cold and tense, I squeezed my foot inside my boots as
I tried to survive the coldness and the anxiety I felt. My heart was beating a million times faster
than the normal
“You are my Erica, do you not know me?” He asked, I looked him in the eye and gave a dry laugh.
He looked handsome and hot but had this confused look on.
“No I do not.” I replied sharply but my wolf betrayed me.
“Then why do I hear your wolf cry out for me, Erica.”
“Erica, don’t act like you don’t know me. I know you are the one and I’ll identify you anywhere I
see you, even if I’m blind. I’ll tell you from your sweet smell that you are mine.”
