Hello everyone!

I hope you are all fine!

Here is a new chapter! Enjoy!

***********

"The alpha will die soon," Ethan muttered under his breath repeating the sentence Anna deciphered yesterday.

"What the hell does it mean?" Aiden said and rubbed his forehead in frustration.

The Salviatti's family along with Anna were sat around a meeting table. It took them nearly most of the day to figure out what that one sentence meant.

"The alpha in werewolves' world is the leader." Anna rationalized.

"And grandpa is the leader in our world," Eric concluded.

"They are planning to kill the Don," Hunter said and moved to sit beside Anna.

"There are numbers in the document, do you think they mean something?" asked Lillian who didn't utter a word since the start of the meeting.

"I don't know, does 2203 represent something to you?" Anna said in confusion.

All the gathered shrugged their shoulders and looked at each other. Ethan who was sitting at the head of the table stood up and looked at his friends.

"I will call father later and inform him of our findings. Maybe he will have some answers."

After Ethan took his leave from the group, the others just eased in some mindless chatter. Loud shrills sounded from the other room in the mansion breaking the peace that was short-lived for the teenagers.

"Good God, who invented something annoying like those damn babies?" Eric groaned and took his leave to check on his so-called daughter.

Lillian looked at Aiden and Hunter and motioned to the stairs.

"You are the fathers. It's time you bond with your children."

With matching huffs, the two took their leaves as well. The two remaining girls sat in awkward silence.

"how has it been going since you came here?" Lillian was the first to speak.

"good, it had been two months since the school started, and until now, everything is going great. I made a new friend, she is super fun."

Lillian flinched at the comment and bowed her head. Anna felt satisfied as she meant it to hurt the green-eyed girl.

"she even has similar eyes to yours. But I think that hers are more honest than some other people I know." Anna said.

"Enough!" Lillian snapped, "why are you doing this? You are hurting me on purpose."

"Sorry, but I think that the truth hurts sometimes," Anna said indifferently. "And that's what I was obliged to realise because of you. When you have a friend who can stab you in the back at any moment, then you will understand my words." Anna got up from her seat next to Lillian and brushed the invisible dust from her clothes.

"I never stabbed you, and I would never dream of it. We are friends Anna, and it's not in my nature to turn my back to anyone that matters to me." Lillian said honestly.

Anna was beyond angry with her friend's words. She took the steps that were separating her from Lillian and got in the girl's face.

"Apparently I don't matter to you." Anna snarled, "You have to remember some of the words you said, Lillian. Maybe then you will understand."

With those words hanging heavily in the air, Anna took her leave. Lillian sighed and plopped on the couch. She ran her hands across her face. Damn this girl, she is so stubborn.
