Another sob rippled through me, and I knew Rebecca's heart was breaking as well. She rubbed my back; trying to rub soothing circles across my back. But it didn't help; nothing helped. I was too broken to be fixed.

At some point, I allowed darkness to take me. I wasn't sure if I fell asleep because of depression, or exhaustion. But I woke up banging on the front door and my skin crawled at the forcefulness of my fists.

I knew who it was before Rebecca bothered to answer the door.

"Go away, Alpha. She doesn't want to see you," Rebecca said through the door. I knew she wasn't going to open it and I was relieved by that.

"Let me in!" Elliot roared; he was so loud that I could hear him clearly through two closed doors. Which meant this entire apartment building could hear him as well. I wouldn't be surprised if someone called my father considering we were in his territory. "I need to see her!!" "Fat chance, ass hole," she scoffed.

Goddess, I loved her for this. She wasn't going to give in no matter how hard he pleaded; though, I worried about her front door. Once Elliot set his mind to something, it was difficult to change it. I knew if he didn't get his way, his temper would flare he would eventually break down the front door.

I shuddered at the thought of that.

"I need to speak with my wife," he demanded.

"Future ex-wife!" Rebecca shot back.

"I won't agree to this divorce. I refuse to sign those papers!!"
