The bells chimed loudly.
I looked down at the window and sure enough, there were about two horses.
I couldn’t see who was on the other end, but I knew my brother rode one.
Xaden had been gone without a word to anyone, which had shocked me.
It was unusual for him to go anywhere without me.
Ever since Jasmine had left the pack, he had been acting strange and moody.
At first, I had been worried he had caught me in my web of thousands of lies, but then I waved it off.
Jasmine was gone.
If he had known anything, he would have confronted me from the outset.
I turned my back on the window and closed my eyes.
Lisa was a filthy bitch!
One I ultimately regretted having anything to do with.
The more I thought of her and how she had blatantly come to threaten me, the angrier I became.
She had even dared to shift and scare me with her wolf!
Angrily, I walked to my dresser and began to scatter the table.
I screamed and sent the mirror spiraling to the floor.
It shattered into a million pieces, and I flung anything and everything I could find.
I breathed heavily once I was calm and dropped to the floor.
My hand was bleeding from the mirror cut, but I didn’t care.
I wanted that bitch gone!
I had hoped that once I used her, it would be easy to get rid of her.
At least some Gold and jewelry would have her on her way.
But she had proven to be difficult.
She had proven to be ambitious and greedy!
She wouldn’t take jewelry or any wealth!
She now wanted Xaden.
How stupid.
Although it was very clever.
If she could take Xaden and make him hers, then she could become the Luna of the pack.
That meant she would be my sister-in-law.
That meant war.
Lisa would ruin my life and use her threats against me.
Being the Luna of the most excellent pack in the entire world was bigger than any wealth I had to offer her.
She knew that.
We both knew that.
The only chance I had was eliminating her.
I would have to have her killed.
No one.
Absolutely no one would miss her.
As I started thinking of ways to have her erased, a knock came at the door, interrupting me from my thoughts.
"What?!" I hissed.
"My lady, your brother has sent for you." A small, tiny voice.
I paused my calculations.
Perhaps Xaden had finally come to his senses and wanted to apologize for his erratic behavior.
"I’ll be down," I said.
I smiled to myself.
To appease me, I would demand my mother’s necklace.
Our family heirloom, he had given to that whore.
I set Lisa and her scheming threats aside.
I was going to handle her later.
I rose to the floor, cleaned up the blood that dripped from my arm, and made sure I looked pleasant.
My life was finally about to start.
