~ The base of the Lebedev Family ~
June 3rd
10:03 AM
Stella, Edward, and Owen are in the living room of the villa that Stella got when she became an Elder of the Lebedev family. The three of them are looking at Sarah, JoAnna, Sophia, and Kitty with complex expressions.
"What have you done?" Stella asked after some time.
"This is our family. Can't we come and visit?" JoAnna asked in return.
"That is not what I meant, and you know it. I am trying to keep them away, and you come here on your own. It will spread like wildfire that the three of you are here."
"And Kitty." Sarah added while scratching the panther's head. "Don't forget Kitty."
Stella was not sure how to respond. Who cares about the panther? Doesn't Sarah understand that all three of them are in danger? They said that they are coming to Europe and Stella assumed that it's for a vacation. This is NOT what Stella calls a vacation!
