Maya POV
I speed walked to the kids' table needing a distraction. I had to stay away from him. I couldn't lie to myself and say that I could handle him. Something about him was attracting me to him and my curiosity always get's the better of me. It's the best thing to do, staying as far as I could from him.
"It's over," I told Eliane who was looking anxious.
"Really?",
"Yeah, we agreed on a settlement and we're done now."
"What kind of a settlement?", Luc asked sharing a look with his sister.
"Indemnification from the enforcers and an official apology from everyone involved," I answered sitting down.

Eliane POVI walked inside the house looking for the bathroom. The party was still in full blast and there was no sign for it to end any time soon. After using the bathroom on the second floor I sat down in the empty hallway. It was fun meeting new people and all but it became overwhelming after a while. I kicked my shoes off and took out my phone. Maya's plane took off an hour ago and I intend to stalk it until it reaches its destination.I smiled looking at the selfie she sent. She was in a business class seat smiling wildly. She looked healthier than the last few days. I hope she doesn't overwork herself later. Thankfully, uncle, Eric could keep an eye on her. I took a selfie and sent it to her. She'll probably laugh realizing that I was hiding from the crowd and she'll use it later to tease me but I didn't care. I m

Eliane POVI was fully aware that walking inside Alexia's room without her permission was rude. But I didn't know where else to hide. I was shocked and confused. I didn't know what to think. I just found out we are mates and now I'm informed that he is going away for a few years! He was going to leave me behind. I walked to the balcony and sat down on one of the chairs.I wish Maya was here. I can't even call her, she still has a couple of hours before landing. But what would she say if she was here with me?'Breathe'that's the first thing she would say. I took a deep breath and looked up to the sky. 'Let him explain', Another deep breath. 'Hear his side of the story' my mind is clearing up little by little. 'He has dreams and plants too', I frowned regretting my dramatic e

Eliane POV"Are you still mad?" Alex asked from behind the bathroom door where I was getting ready for the day. He was under the impression that I was upset by his question about Maya's love life but the truth is I'm still shocked by the head enforcer's reaction. Well, it's nothing concrete but still, it is something. I opened the door and walked out."Alex, for the fifth time I'm not mad at you. I just think it's not honest to pursue a human when they know that their mates are waiting for them somewhere." I answered him while looking for a rubber band in my bag. He made me sit on his bed and kneeled in front of me."They both lost their mates," His voice was reflecting the painful fact. "I would've never asked if they were players. They are both good and responsible m

Maya POV"Why am I not surprised?" I turned to my 'chauffeur' for the day who just stopped in front of the big house, "I should've figured this out when you showed up at the airport. Coffee and chocolate! and here I thought you missed me," I stepped out of the car, leaving Ian behind sweating and choking on his words."Of course I missed you, more than you could ever think. Believe me, please!! Liza blackmailed me into bringing you here. You know her. You know how she can be when she wants something." I ignored him and walked toward the opened door, where a young maid was waiting for us. Of course, I knew that Liza was the one pushing him into abducting me upon arriving here. Ian may be a grown up man now, but he's still no match to his sister."Welcome, Miss. Evans, M

Eliane POVThe head enforcer stood a few steps away with a disappointed look. His cold eyes were looking down on me waiting for my next move. He shook his head before grabbing his teacup and taking another sip. If it was any other time, I would've found the sight of a half shifted Lycan drinking tea hilarious, but not today. This simple gesture was a way to tell me that he never thought of me as a threat. A painful reminder that he could kill me anytime he wishes to, and my pathetic excuse of attacks won't stop him."Is that all you have little wolf?", He taunted me with a bored tone. "I thought you were going to stop me, to kill me, but all you've been doing the past hour was jumping around and winning like a pitiful puppy." I gathered my remaining strength and pounced at him. This time I was aiming for his leg since I

Eliane POV"What are you thinking of?", Alex's hand squeezed mine to gain my attention. He couldn't help but ask since I didn't utter a single word from the moment I got into his car. Despite Maya's words and his comforting presence, this morning's events were still vivid in my mind. The anger was still there, but now it's no longer directed at the head enforcer alone. I was pissed at myself too. I felt stupid and naive. How could I ever believe that I could hide inside my cocoon forever?"Eliane?", I shook my head, trying to chase away those dark thoughts. I should focus on my second date. I should thank him for running back to me. I should think of a way to improve myself and become useful to those dear to me. But I couldn't do anything. My mind was still replaying my shameful morning.

Eliane's POV"Are you sure, gorgeous?" Maya asked me for the tenth time since I called her."I promise. I'm fine. I want to see things through here.""Fine, but if anything happens...""I'll catch the first flight to you," I laughed trying to show her that I was really fine. "Anyways, tonight I'll send you some pics of my new baby." It was her turn to laugh."I already saw it.""When?""When you were making out with it. Poor Alex, he didn't see this one coming!!","What? It was recorded?"

Maya POV"...And then uncle Rain and uncle Luca went back with me this morning to ...""Wait, wait, wait... Uncle Rain and Uncle Luca? Since when?", Eliane put down the spoon and turned to look at me with a light blush. I could clearly see that she wasn't comfortable with it."Yesterday, Bet... Uncle Rain said that it was weird being called by his rank in his house and asked me to drop it." She bit her lower lip, "He wanted me to call him dad, but I couldn't. Alex suggested to call him uncle until I feel more comfortable." It made sense in a way. She was living with them, monopolizing their kitchen, and more than anything, she was their daughter-in-law. She's practically family now."And what about the other idiot?",
