Chapter Twenty-Six:
Michelle tiredly stretched as they finished practicing for the new opera. She couldn't wait to get back to see Erik and her daughter. As she made her way back she was suddenly stopped by Marie. "What do you want?" Michelle snapped at her.
"I know why you were missing." She replied with a smug smile on her face.
"Oh?"
"You were pregnant, weren't you? You're his wife aren't you?"
Michelle glared at the younger ballerina then said, "Yes to both and I am very proud of it."
"Is he as deformed as they say?" She sneered.
Michelle pushed her against the wall suddenly then said, "Listen slut, my husband is the true owner of the opera house and the only reason he didn't kill you for the stunt you pulled on me was because I told him not to. So you will stay out of my business or maybe I will tell him to cause an accident. If you know what I mean."
Michelle then stomped off to see Erik.

Erik knew his wife was angry when she came into the lair with a look of anger on her face. He held Fawna in his arms as she went into the bedroom and changed. When she came back out, she wore a white nightgown and robe. "What's the matter Michelle?"
"That idiot Marie stopped me before I came." She said as she sat down beside him on the couch and took her daughter from her husband. "Would you?" She asked as she indicated her strap.
"Of course angel." He replied while unbuttoning the strap and pulling the material over her breast. Michelle cradled her daughter against her breast then looked at her husband as Fawna attached herself to Michelle's breast.
"I'm so tired of this. After this opera, were moving." Michelle told him.
"Have you heard from your father?" Erik questioned.
"No. I'm sure I will hear from him soon though." Michelle replied.
"Michelle, I know you are becoming tired. Are you sure you feel well enough to perform the opera?"
"Yes. I will be fine. Are you sure you want to move from the opera house?"
"Anywhere you go i'll go too." Erik replied then kissed her cheek softly.
"I'm so lucky to have you Erik and so is Fawna. You are such a great father. So attentitive to your daughter's needs."
He smiled then said, "I appreciate it angel."
"Here take your daughter, I think she has had her fill." Michelle told him as she handed their daughter to him.
He cradled Fawna in his arms as his wife buttoned the strap and straightened her nightgown. "I love you."
She smiled at him then said, "I love you too Erik."
