Chapter 24 - CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR

 *ERICA*

I entered the hall and walked to my seat all eyes were fixed on me, I noticed that the blonde wasn't on her seat "maybe she's ill" I thought well I cared less. I quickly brought out my draft and continued from where I had stopped yesterday night, I had termed my design "Dark bloods" I chose to use rubies for it since the alpha was unknown and was said to be ruthless and intelligent and for that I used diamonds as the top cover even if I didn't know the alpha I still had to make something presentable " Erica Edwards, you finally appeared " an angry voice stopped my work, I knew it was coming, so I quickly covered my draft, put it inside the table drawer and looked at the frustrated person in front of me. " Yes what can I do for you" I asked with a sly smile "thank the Moon Goddess who prevented you from early or you would have being in Julia's shoes" she said in a way that made me suspicious "what happened to her" I asked in a worried tone as Julia walked in with a painfully bloated face as red as an apple if not worse " that's really bad " I said " you were lucky, she was just the scape goat this would have uncovered the cryptic reason for being masked" she said as she brought out a pink container that looked just like a perfume container " this is a mace meant for the likes of you" she said with a smirk, now I get the message, Madison had set a trap for me thinking that I would fall for it, I felt pity for Julia she must be the nosy type, coming to check what was the mysterious mystery implanted on my table " Madison is she really this anxious to get me out of her way?" I thought with a smile "Julia I heard what happened, I'm really sorry but you should have minded your business, it wasn't meant for you. You practically became the scape goat you shouldn't have allowed your curiosity to get the better part of you, this happened to teach you a lesson.
