You Don't Need To Worry

 Amelie's POV.

 Hearing the good news, I immediately ran to the hotel and woke my friend up. I can't wait to see Griffin again soon, I hope he can be rescued easily and is in good condition.

 "Hailey ... Hailey, wake up. We have to go to the castle now. Alpha Rexton is going to attack where Gloria is tonight. He said we have to wait for his arrival at the castle."

 "Attack? Tonight? Are you serious, Amelie? You're not dreaming, are you?"

 I shook my head quickly. "No, I just met Alpha Rexton earlier. Get up, I'll call Andrew and Ben."

 "Where--where did you meet Alpha Rexton earlier, Amelie?" Hailey still doesn't seem to believe it. Meanwhile I left the hotel room and went to the next room to call Andrew and Ben. I didn't have time to answer his question.

 My two feet walked quickly. I don't know how many times I pressed the bell until Ben finally opened the door with his pillow face. Just like Hailey, he also looked like he didn't believe it, but I still convinced him.

 Now the four of us are back in the car. I can't wait to get to the castle. Don't let it happen that when Griffin comes I won't be there yet. I should have been there and been the first to greet him. I am his mother.

 "Are you sure, Amelie?" Ben asked, making sure again.

 I nodded my head. "Of course, why don't you seem to believe me? I actually met Alpha Rexton earlier and while we were talking, Alpha Rexton got a call from Beta Luke who told him that they had managed to find Gloria's whereabouts. That's why I wanted to immediately go to the castle, I want to be the first to welcome Griffin home."

 "You met Alpha Rexton? Where?" Hailey asked, her forehead frowning. "Why didn't I know that you went to meet Alpha Rexton, Amelie?"

 Luckily the car started moving, at least I felt calmer because Benjamin already trusted me. At least if he still doesn't believe it, he wants to drive his vehicle.

 "In the lobby." I said smiling. "I didn't tell you because you were fast asleep earlier."

 Hailey nodded her head for a while, I smiled because now they both trusted me. It seems that among my three friends, Andrew is the only one who hasn't asked any questions at all. He is the one who understands and trusts me the most, this right is proven by him continuing to obey what I say without the slightest argument.

 The car drove through a fairly quiet street. There were no vehicles that happened to pass at the same time and pass the car I was riding in. The road to the castle must pass through a park which is now worthy of being called a forest because of its large trees. It's quite scary here, especially since the lighting is only available every fifty meters.

 Unlike this afternoon, when the car driven by Benjamin almost arrived at the castle, the two guards on duty opened the gate and invited us in. I feel so impatient. When I got out of the car, I didn't see Alpha Rexton around here, but I saw Lennon, Annette and also ... Matilda.

 I walked closer to them with a looking lower gaze, I felt like I couldn't bear to look at Matilda's hateful gaze. "A--are they gone?" I asked Annette quietly.

 "Yeah, they're gone. Let's pray for their safety."

 "Let's hope they succeed in bringing Griffin back. I miss him so much."

 "I understand you, Amelie."

 "We'd better wait inside." Lennon said later.

 According to Lennon's words, everyone who had been outside the castle then went inside. I couldn't wait calmly for Griffin's return, in my heart I kept praying that Griffin would come back safely without anything missing at all. I miss him so much, I want to hug him tightly right now.

 Tears flowed again as I imagined the best and worst possibilities that I might get later. Meanwhile next to me, Hailey rubbed my shoulder gently, giving me peace.

 After a while I decided to get up and go to the toilet. Annette took me even though after that she left because I didn't want her to wait, I would probably be in the toilet for a long time. I looked at my ugly face because my eyes were puffy. I didn't even have time to take care of myself and my face when I lost Griffin. After making sure that my appearance was neat and beautiful again, I decided to go out.

 "Apparently you already have children, Amelie."

 I was a little surprised to see Matilda who was also here. My lips smiled slightly. "I'm sorry, Matilda."

 "How dare you destroy my life."

 My head lowered, I felt very guilty towards her. "I'm sorry, Matilda."

 "I will never forgive you, Amelie. I hope Alpha Rexton doesn't succeed in bringing your son back."

 The sound of heels walking away could be heard clearly. My eyes were still looking at the floor. I didn't dare look at Matilda, even though I only saw her back. Am I doing this wrong? Was it true that I ruined Matilda's life?

 Back with them, I kept my head down. I couldn't sit still and look outside every once in a while. I'm really looking forward to their arrival. Matilda's words in the toilet made me feel pessimistic, afraid that what she said was true. My tears started flowing again and I quickly wiped them away.

 "Calm down, Amelie." Hailey whispered.

 "Griffin will be safe." Andrew added.

 "Alpha Rexton personally stepped in to save your son, it is certain that he will win and succeed in bringing Griffin back." Benjamin also spoke.

 "Look," said Annette as she got up from her seat. "They have come."

 We all immediately went outside. I saw two people being handcuffed and I didn't recognize either of them. Could they be Griffin's kidnappers?

 "Levin?" said Matilda.

 I turned to look at her and immediately understood that the man in handcuffs was Levin.

 "Catch her too," said Alpha Rexton firmly.

 Matilda tried to escape, but she was unsuccessful.

 "Punish them all."

 "But--but--" I tried to hold back, but I thought better of it.

 "Babe, why did I--"

 "Because you've been having an affair with Levin, Matilda." Alpha Rexton interrupted Matilda's words. "Take them to the castle prison before trial tomorrow." He said firmly.

 Levin, Matilda and also a sorcerer known as Gloria were taken away from me. Now there are only Alpha Rexton and Beta Luke left here. I looked around for Griffin who wasn't with them.

 "Where's Griffin?"

 "Sorry, Amelie, but Griffin--"

 "Don't believe him, Mom, he's lying."

 Hearing his voice, my eyes immediately turned towards the source of the sound. Griffin got out of the car and ran to hug me. I really miss him, there are a lot of changes in his body, he is thinner than before he disappeared.

 For a moment I saw Alpha Rexton smiling. I let go of the hug and Griffin turned to face Hailey.

 "I'm sorry, Griffin," said Hailey, who hugged him tightly.

 "It's not your fault, Hailey." The hug broke again and Griffin turned to Hailey's side.

 "Hi." Instead of hugging, Benjamin gave him a high five. "How strong you are, it's true what Hailey and Andrew said if you're not like an ordinary boy."

 Griffin chuckled, then turned to the other side. "Do you recognize me?" Andrew asked.

 "Andrew!" said Griffin immediately. "I finally met you."

 Andrew carried Griffin, lifting him so high that it made me feel worried.

 I still noticed, Griffin was now standing in front of Annette and Lennon. He looked confused and turned to me.

 "They are your grandfather and grandmother, Griffin." Alpha Rexton said and I nodded my head in reassurance to Griffin.

 "I--I have da--dad, da-dada and also na-nana?" Griffin's face looked disbelieving. "Why didn't you ever tell me that, Mom?"

 I chuckled hearing that. "I'm sorry Griffin, I didn't think you'd meet them."

 ***

 Four weeks passed, Matilda and Lennon were exiled to a remote village as punishment while Gloria had to be put under house arrest. Meanwhile, Alpha Rexton and I got married today. Gwendolyn, Hailey and Chasne are already here, mama isn't left behind either. I really miss them all.

 The wedding process went smoothly, all the people I love came, I even saw Don in the guest chair. Everyone was happy and I felt happy seeing the smiles on their faces.

 I saw Griffin wearing a suit similar to the one worn by Alpha Rexton coming over carrying flowers. He is still so sweet and I accept it.

 "Thank you, Griffin, you are very sweet."

 "Amelie," someone called and I immediately turned around.

 I froze for a moment to see who was in front of me. He wore a white suit like today's dress code. "J--Jackson, you--"

 "Yeah, I was released early because I was a good prisoner."

 "Congratulations, Jack." I hugged him. "That's nice to hear."

 "Congratulations on your wedding too," said Jack after releasing our hug. "Ah, Alpha Rexton. I'm sorry, this is for you." He handed me a pack of cigarettes.

 Seeing that, Alpha Rexton chuckled. "Oh my, you still remember apparently."

 Alpha Rexton and I also laughed, it felt very funny when we remembered what had happened before. The event was still continuing, the host asked me to throw the flowers that Griffin had given me earlier. All the attendees got ready, Alpha Rexton and I stood with our backs to them. We both held the flower.
