MasukBaxter:After that night, Madeline had grown more distant from me.She had moved in with the children and was sleeping in their room.I could tell that she was really happy to have Gina and me back.But of course, my memory had become a huge issue, and not telling her about my wolf had really upset her too.My wolf, on the other hand, was very happy knowing that there were issues between us.“Did you send them the letter?” she asked dryly as she worked on the files.We had been sitting in the office for about two hours, and she had not lifted her head from her desk or computer, while I had not looked away from her once.“I did,” I replied.“I want you to plan a quick meeting with them,” she instructed.She wasn’t exactly suggesting it but demanding it, and well, I didn’t mind her being a little sassy.I liked the way she was controlling me.“Whenever you say, I’ll do it,” I assured her, watching as she finally looked up at me.“The kids’ schools are starting soon,” I continued, watchi
Sawyer:Rosetta stared at the man, and I already knew she was going to interrogate him.Like mother, like daughter. They were both very cunning.But it didn't matter. What could she prove anyway?"Would you like to help us?" I asked Rosetta.She just stared at me. Her eyes started to water. Even her own friends began to look her way."I'll wait for your call. We would like to have all hands on deck to resolve this matter," I murmured before pulling away.Then I gestured for Lady Eugenia to walk away with me.This time, I wasn't put in handcuffs.In fact, the council members had left their warriors there to keep the area secure from me, while also providing me with food, clothes, and other necessities.Ha. I guessed it wasn't that bad to be in a werewolf land after all.Being the king here was better than being a president in a world full of weak people.War was close.After proving myself and helping these people, they were about to realize that I was the only person in the world who
Madeline:The minute I heard that Baxter had his wolf and hadn’t even told me, I went through a lot of emotions.I was happy at first. I mean, I was ecstatic.To think he had gone through such terrible humiliation, and those people had thought he would never recover from it, yet he got his wolf, his family, everything.It meant a lot until the realization started to hit me.His wolf must have his memories. Why wasn’t he helping Baxter?Was it his wolf that didn’t want to be with me?I mean, Baxter wouldn’t even talk about his wolf in front of me.Or did Baxter not trust me with his wolf’s secrets?Was it because his memories were gone and he just wasn’t sure if I was trustworthy?The thoughts hit me hard.I had waited for us to reunite, and now I was learning all these upsetting things. It was killing me.So I left the room to get some air and take a deep breath.As I stepped out, I heard footsteps rushing toward the guest room.And it struck me.It was Nina.Nina was doing what Nina
Sawyer:I hated that smug face. I would rather have never seen him before.But Lady Eugenia had filled me in.After Baxter left, Byron was the one sleeping with Madeline.He had maneuvered his way into her life, and then the two started having sex regularly.And then Ron, when he thought Yuvonne was dead, started joining in on the fun.I didn't believe that shit.I had figured Lady Eugenia hated Madeline.At one point, I wondered if I asked about any random person, she would say that, yes, they had been with Madeline.But I knew Madeline.We didn't spend that much time together, only a few years, but she wasn't that type.Still, I could tell Byron must have liked her.No wonder he was hovering around Rosetta now.I noticed the way he defended her when she didn't have answers."I'm just saying that I can help, especially when the humans are now planning so much shit against us."The minute I mentioned that, I watched Rosetta frown and then turn toward the council members."What are you
Rosetta:It was so annoying, watching this man fight not only my father but then come out and talk like he was the biggest hero.There were a few things he said that did make sense. He was a lycan.How the hell did humans overpower him so easily? Or maybe it was because they had a lot of weapons?Because, well, I had heard before that humans had prepared weapons they could use if werewolves ever attacked them.Did that much destruction really happen while they were casting him out?Or was he telling the truth? Did he really just leave everything behind because he didn't want to fight back?And then there was Lady Eugenia.She had sat between us, but she kept snapping her head toward me, constantly demanding eye contact.I hadn't turned toward her once. I was already going through a plethora of emotions.How the heck did my father come here? Why would he do that? He never did that.He must have been lured here. There was no other way.And my mother had done it. I was one hundred percen
Sawyer:I had done a great job. More specifically, Lady Eugenia had done an incredible job.Just like she had said, the monster came following the meats through the trees, sniffing them out until he reached the exact spot.When the monster tried to descend, my lycan was already getting agitated.It had been so long since my monster had fought someone as powerful as him.Not to mention, Baxter had defeated him while still in human form.But we would rather not talk about that.The monster was easy for us to control. The minute we came face-to-face with him, my lycan sensed his vulnerability.The monster was like a puppy that gets too excited and starts biting people.He didn't know where he belonged, whether it was among monsters or humans.As I fought him, I made sure to scratch and bloody him, but I hadn't planned to kill him. Not yet.So, after beating him up, I slowly let him go. He flew away while my lycan stood tall, taking deep, heavy breaths.I had to calm him. I had to remind
Byron:Baxter was in terrible condition. Looking at him, it felt like he was already dead. His stomach was completely torn open.I could see his organs. Nothing made sense to me at that moment, and my hands started shaking.But there was something near him that caught my attention. A small pink swe
Madeline:We reached a shallow stream tucked between rocks and surrounded by tall grass and trees.The water was clear enough that we could see fish drifting near the surface and darting through the darker patches.My kids started to jump up and down, pointing toward the fish and clapping their han
Madeline:“I know I shouldn't have done that. I wish I hadn’t. Now I’ve lost everything. And he has the videos. I know he will come back to blackmail me again,” Yuvonne cried.I was shocked by everything she had been telling me. I reached for her hand and squeezed it."It was not your fault," I mur
Madeline:"Yuvonne? What are you saying?" I asked, my voice rising.At that point, I could no longer pretend it was not a big deal. She was crying and shaking her head uncontrollably. At times, she even scratched her arms."Yuvonne? I’m asking you. Tell me if it’s true. Did he fucking push you?" I
