Suddenly, a commotion outside my dormitory made me drop my phone. I immediately came down from my bed and started for the door wondering what the noise was all about. I immediately opened my door and peeked at the corridor; my eyes widened with shock. A figure had just come out from the elevator dressed in a wedding dress. She was a woman with striking, beautiful, fiery red hair and piercing green eyes that made her stand out wherever was.     

Immediately, I recognized her – she was the woman my dad was set to marry – Her name was Ember Frazier. Although we’ve not been introduced officially I recognized her from the engagement photos I’ve seen with her and my dad.

She had two burly enforcers flanking her on each side and seemed to be coming in my direction. I threw my door wider as I came out to the corridor, a ready smile on my face as I waited for her to come so we could finally greet each other.

Hi there!” I greeted her when she reached. “My name is…”

The words were barely out of my mouth when she slapped me across my face, drawing a gasp from the few members of the pack present.
