“Hello?”
| didn’t reply.
My heart dropped to my stomach. All the excitement that had piled in the last minutes, suddenly watered down.
1 didn't know what to think.
| wanted to call out her name, to confirm that it was indeed Sussie on the other end of the line, but I just
couldn't.
The female called out again. “Hello, are you th—"
I cut the call.
My fingers hovered over the screen as | stared hardly at it. | didn’t want to jump to conclusions about who picked
the call, but Sussie never left my mind.
Sussie?
Why would Sussie answer Eros’ call? It's been away. Didn't she get leave because she was angry that | got
accepted into the hybrid pack instead of her?
Bitterness clogged my throat, and my guts twisted with dread.

For a moment everything went silent, then memories suddenly rushed through me.
Sussie was bad news. | remember how she tried to dominateand my friends during lunch with the other
hybrids-Arthur, Adonis, Beauty and Eros. She had projected her hybrid dominance to intimidate Late Nova and
Alice untill they left the table.
| remember being told of Eros‘ vulnerability, and his fling with Sussie. Eros had lost his sister, Regina to a rogue
attack due to their parents’ — the King and Queen's neglience.
But Eros’ sister death really affected him. He vowed never to take the throne, so he would devote his tand
attention to his children.
At the time, Eros lost it. He was broken, vulnerable and at his lowest. Sussie saw that, and took advantage of his
emotions. She seduced Eros who sought solace in her and eventually had a fling with her.
Sussie imagined Eros would eventually choose her as his mate, but Eros was dead set on waiting for his mate.
After Eros met me, Sussie insultedand tried to make my life miserable.
Sussie wasn’t woman | would love to cacross again. She was worse than Eve.
| felt my teeth go on edge. Hearing her voice again was like having a stake driven straight into my heart.
Different thoughts ran through my head. | felt my chest constrict as | threw my phone on the bed.
“That woman needs to be taught her place. How dare she picks Eros’ call?” | said angrily.
“Calm down, Eden. Aren't you overthinking?” Tiara paced uneasily. | could tell that she was just trying to be the
calm one. She was as disturbed as |
was.
“Do you think they are together? What if Sussie is trying to take him away from us? Now that Eros is to be king,
she must have cto try her luck for a position as queen.”
“Eden!” Tiara growled. “Eros wouldn't do that.”
“The least he could do was callback; why was Sussie with his phone? What was he doing with her in the first
place? Eros knows better than to be around her.” | growled.
“Let’s go hto Eros; let's talk with him and ask what's happening, or we could check about his whereabouts
from Beauty or Adonis, if he’s not home.” Tiara suggested.
-Hfrowned. “No!” The thought of facing Eros now was unbearable. | couldn't do it, not after I just heard Sussie’s
voice. “Not now.” | said.
Tiara growled in frustration. But | ignored her. | was too pissed to face Eros.
| looked around the room and spotted the luggage | cwith. Then | picked it up and arranged my clothes in it,
then 1 freshened up and changed into a black leather jacket, trousers and black boots. | dragged my luggage,
walking towards the door as | made my way downstairs to my parents.
When | entered the living room, | found Lord Shevek and my mother talking softly.

tell that | wasn’t the only one who was excited about this.
Lord Shevek smiled at me, and moved towards the door “Let's get going before it’s late.” He said.
My mom nodded. “Yes, we should leave.”
| just nodded, and followed behind them.
As soon as we got outside, the cool morning air hit me, soothing my nerves.
A sleek black Limousine rode to a stop before us, and | smiled. It looked expensive, sleek, and perfect; its surface
gleamed at the smallest spark of light.
It was a car perfectly suited for a man like Lord Shevek. It went well with his clothes and his aura. | could that he
