“I can’t believe we are sneaking out for the first time,” Caroline whispered as we entered the elevator. “It feels like I’m suddenly wild and free.”

“You don’t have to whisper anymore,” Winter tells her. “They can’t hear us in here. Don’t get too excited, there’s still a chance for someone to realize we’re missing and raise the alarm.”

Caroline shrugs her shoulders, “I still feel like they can hear us. I’ll be whispering for the rest of the night until we return home.”

I’d convinced them to let me see Dante one last time. However, they’d only agreed because they were tagging along. They didn’t want me roaming around alone, especially since Cassius would be watching our every move from now on.

“Remember, you’re only going there to stop the fight.” Winter reminds me. “We’re not staying long. Dante can’t know where you’re staying. You have to keep everything a secret. Once you stop the fight, we will be returning home immediately. We can’t risk mother finding out what we’ve been up to. If she finds out, we will all be punished severely. Especially you. I can assure you that you don’t want to know what her punishments are like. Since you’re pregnant, we want to avoid mother’s punishments.”

“I know,” I answer her. “You’ve told me this fifteen times for today alone. Trust me; I remember every word.”

I wasn’t even exaggerating. She kept repeating it to me. I knew I couldn’t stay after stopping the fight, but part of me wanted to be by Dante’s side a little longer. I know that I was the one that made the decision to leave him but it was never an easy one.

“The fight already started,” Caroline informs me. “We aren’t going to make it in time to stop it. Are you sure you still want to go there?”

“What?” I demand as a shiver runs down my spine. “How could it have started already? That’s not the time I was told it would be starting.”

I wanted to get there to stop it, I didn’t want to reach there when Dante was already bruised from head to toe from his match.
