Chapter 33

*****Erika's POV*****

"You called me." Jace stepped into dad's meeting room. It was better here, this was a serious matter that needed urgent attending to.

Paula and Kat were in my room. They had both insisted on staying until they saw I was better and I was grateful to them for it because no matter how ready I thought I was, I still needed them...Jace too. I would stop at nothing to make sure the culprits are brought to book. I would make sure they were dealt with thoroughly.

Alexander had messed with me and I had let it slide. He and Serenity had chosen to toy with me and my emotions, I had let them just because I was trying to opt for peace. But this time was going to be different. This was my dad. My own dad. They had dared crossed the line with the Alpha of Iron Claw pack.

Whatever I had in mind to do now, I needed Jace to be in on it. Whatever I had to say, I wanted him to hear it. He was family and I was sure that the past three years I'd been absent, he must have known some things and I would definitely need his help executing my plans.

"Yes, I did." I had put on a dress indicating I meant business even if it was just with my brother. "Have a seat." I gestured to the seat before me while I occupied the one next to father's throne-like one.

"How are you holding up?" His gaze and tone went soft and concerned.

I blinked my eyes to prevent tears, swallowing the lump lodged there. Not trusting myself enough to speak, I nodded.

"Are you sure?" He inquired, still gazing at me.

I nodded again.

He nodded after studying my face for few more seconds. "So what's this meeting about? I'm guessing it's something really serious, seeing you in that dress and we're in this room."

"Have you signed the papers?" I went down to business.

"Yes, I have. I requested that he make it two copies. One for you, one for me." He replied, getting into the serious mode too.
