“Good morning,” Eloise said, smiling at me, and her smile was extra, which made me know Raphael had done a lot of work.
“Good morning,” I greeted her and Raphael, and he smiled at me while rubbing her back.
Kara and Marcel were yet to join us.
Darius pulled out a seat for me to sit down. I sat and looked at Eloise. She was glowing. She looked nothing like the Eloise that I used to know. It was amazing what true love could do to someone. We were lucky.
We came to the north as war prisoners and found love in the process. Like in the east when our husbands were friends, likewise in the north. It was amazing to see how intertwined our destinies were. It was still in the very same order.
“Where is Marcel?” Darius asked Raphael, and he smiled.
“They will soon join us, I hope,” Raphael answered, and Darius laughed. I knew there was a subtle exchange between the men, which we weren’t privy to, so I squeezed my man’s thigh.
“Have you decided what our team would wear during the polo?” Raphael asked Darius, and he shook his head.
“Maybe our women would decide that,” Darius said, lifted my hand and kissed it.
“I want to look sexy while you cheer me on during our games,” he said, and I smiled at him.

“That is an easy colour. Sage polo shirt and white trousers. Sage and white everything,” I said, and he nodded.
“As you wish, my Lady,” he said, and I felt tingles.
“I am so excited about the ball before the sports games begin. I learned everyone would be there,” Eloise said, and I wondered why she would be excited. Then it hit me that our exes might be coming for the games, but I also knew that the east and most of the south were never invited to the all- region games.
“You will get to rub it in his face one day, Eloise but not at the games. They never invite the east,” I linked her, and her smile dropped. She really wanted to laugh at Cruz. I could understand. Raphael was an upgrade from the douchebag.
Raphael was a powerful Alpha and third in command of our world. A position Cruz could never dream of. It would have been nice if she and Kara got the chance to rub the joy on their faces. Call it petty, but there was a true satisfaction that would come with their pain and disbelief. I knew one day it would happen, and no matter how much they claimed not to care, they would because the women had an upgrade.
Kara joined us with Marcel, and with how they looked, I knew what they had been up to.
Marcel did not button all the way up, meaning they were in a rush, and Kara looked like she packed her hair before tumbling in the sheets. She couldn’t take the time to comb and pack the hair again, so she decided to pat it and fix herself up.
“Shall we eat?” Darius said, and we dug in.
”
I ate everything. My appetite was over the roof, and Darius kept adding things to my plate.
Breakfast ended, and I was the first to leave the table to head to where we

kept the journals.
There were six journals altogether, and somehow it wasn’t a daily record of her life; browsing through the page, I realised she only recorded significant events.
“Read aloud, Zora,” Marcel said. We were all eager for answers, so we sat in the living room, and I picked the oldest journal, judging by the dates, to read.
“Today was the worst day of my life. I told Collier I would like to have a baby with him, and he shut it down. He said he already has one bastard; he can’t have another. It really hurt because I love him so much, and it would be a gift to have a baby with him,” I finished.
It wasn’t informative, but we now knew how Collier felt about having a baby with her, maybe that is why the baby is nowhere.
I flipped through, looking for something significant.

Jenny seemed the type to rant a lot, and I wasn’t surprised. She was alone most of her life, so she was bound to rave in her journals. Everyone needed an outlet, and this was hers, especially since she had dirty disgraceful secrets.
“Collier punished me today because I wanted something permanent. He told me he did not like Nellie anymore, but he flared up when I asked him to make me his Luna. He did the worst thing ever to me, and I will never forgive him for it. Asking his friends to share me with him was the most humiliating thing ever. He wanted me to know how he saw me, as his whore. I might not be in his harem, but I wasn’t different from them in his eyes. I was foolish to think he would fall in love with me.” It read, and I could not feel sorry for her because Nellie was her friend. She got what she deserved.
“It is clear that Collier is lying to me. I know he loves Nellie; I can see it in his eyes now he has banned me from speaking her name. I hate that

bitch so much,” it read, and we laughed.

“I think we should skip that book and read the later ones,” Darius said, disgusted by the content of the journal I was reading.
“No, please let her read some more pages, and we will move to the next one,” Marcel said and looked at me.
“Read an interesting bit, Zora,” He said. It was clear we all believed she got treated the way she should.
