The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn

The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn Chapter 131

~CLARISSA~

It’s been a week. One week since Dante married Willow. One week after Anya’s death. One week since I told Damon that I wanted things to go back to normal between us.

Willow’s tears had decreased, but she was still tremendously sad.

The doctor couldn’t find anything wrong with her when we called him to have a look at her. Yet, her skin remained ice cold for a while before returning to its average temperature.

It was unlike anything any of us had ever seen before. We didn’t know what the cause was, and the doctor did not help us one bit.

Today was the first day we would take her back to school with us. The first time she was ever going to step foot in our academy. I knew it wouldn’t be easy. Everyone knew that she’d married her sister’s supposedly mate.

While Dante was always in love with Anya, I didn’t believe that she was ever his mate. If she were, she would have had strong feelings for him, but she never did.

However, everyone at school did not know the whole story. Both Willow and Dante did not want the truth of her sister’s death to be revealed to the public. They didn’t like the people to know how horrible of a person she was.

Besides, if people knew the truth about Anya, Willow’s life would be even worse. It was always going to be difficult the moment people knew she was Anya’s sister. I still remember how hard it was for Autumn when she married Atticus. This time it was much worse. Luckily for Willow, we would do our best to protect her from the public.

“Did you see the articles posted this morning?” Autumn asks me.
