Was he one of the bad guys?"I bombarded her with questions because this was the first time she had ever spoken to me about my father.Each question only seemed to make her cry harder."No," she whimpered. "He was one of the good guys. The best."She smiled through her tears."But his life was very sad. He was a rogue, just like me. But he protected me. We hid in one of the caves and stayed there until the others left. That's when we felt our mate bond,” she smiled briefly when recalling meeting her mate."We were so happy together. The first few months were amazing. He would go out, work hard, and bring me food. For a while, I thought that was what life would always be like."Her voice suddenly hardened as her gaze drifted to the window.“He was even building a cabin on the rooftop.” Her smile faded."Until what?" I asked, reaching for her hand.Her entire body trembled."Until that full moon night. People found out I was hiding in the
Livia:I felt guilty too, especially after Daniel said all those things to me.He had never treated me that way before, nor had he ever looked at me with such disrespect.I knew it was all my fault, but what was I supposed to do?For the first time in my life, I had fallen in love with someone.I knew I was wrong, yet I just couldn't stop myself.At the time, only one thought kept running through my mind.What if the woman he had married wasn't worthy of him?Otherwise, how could she lose him like that?And not just him, but even her own daughter.I don't know what came over me then, but I convinced myself that she couldn't be a good mother.Otherwise, she wouldn't have lost them. In my mind, she didn't deserve them if she couldn't hold on to them.I took Gina home with me.By then, one thing was certain.I couldn't let Gina and him meet each other.Otherwise, it would create a huge problem."You're home already? I thought you'd be out for hours."My mother was speaking cheerfully whe
Madeline:"See, I don't think I understand you," I said to her.As we sat in the living room, I had checked on Byron, and just as Ron had said, his condition was worsening with every passing hour."I don't know how, but she can heal wounds and poisons with her saliva," Nala said, causing me to scrunch my eyebrows."Wait, so you're telling me there was someone who could help people, and she didn't come forward to help the children?" I asked, already questioning this woman's credibility."Not exactly. I mean, she can't heal children. It's kind of like how you can heal children, but she can heal adults. I'm not really sure. I've never been this confused before, but now that I'm saying it out loud, I realize how strange it sounds," she replied and I turned to look at Ron."Who is this person?" he asked."Oh, you've probably heard of her," Nala replied. "She's quite well known in Alpha circles."She shifted in her seat."I found her recently when one of my soldiers was wounded, and she hel
Madeline:I couldn't tell whether I was happy that I would have died and been reunited with Gina and Baxter after fifteen days, or angry that Bodhi and Elara would have been left behind.Either way, it would have been cruel.They would have been the ones left to suffer."So, I'm going to die?" I asked in a monotone."No. That's what I'm trying to tell you." She let out a small laugh. "The monster used its tongue to save you. It cured you."I stared at her in confusion."It seems its saliva has some kind of healing properties," she continued.My heart slowly began to stir again, as though it were fluttering back to life."So you're telling me that if—" I paused as my voice broke.I could tell she realized I was about to cry."That maybe, if a very sick person is brought here and it uses its saliva, that person might survive?"Tears streamed down my face as I asked the question.By then, I could tell that while I had been unconscious, Ron must have filled her in on Baxter's situation.T
Madeline:Even I was aware that my confidence in the monster listening to me might have been misplaced.There was a high possibility that we would go there and it would attack us.Maybe it didn’t only attack me.Maybe it had only been protective because of Ron, or perhaps for Byron's sake.There were thousands of possibilities.In this situation, I was heading toward the monster with an entire troop behind me.If the monster hurt me, not only would I lose my credibility, but I would also feel guilty.These people had come to fight for me and save me.We kept moving until we reached the mountain top.That's when Nala's grip tightened around my arm.I gestured for her to stay where she was because the moment I heard the sound of wings flapping, I felt overwhelmed.I started walking toward the oak tree where I knew the monster was.It had probably sensed an unfamiliar presence.Its wings were already beating against the air."You don't need to be hostile," I said as I looked up at the mo
Madeline:After planning everything with him and telling him he needed to wait before we took any further steps, I decided to return to the cabin.To be honest, Byron's condition was really bad, and I was worried about him.But as soon as I emerged from the woods and stepped onto the mountain trail, I heard voices behind me."There she is!"It sounded as though a group of people had been lingering nearby, probably ordered by Elgin and the others to look for me.An arrow flew straight at me.I spun to the side and caught it in my hand.When I looked at the people, they all gasped.I threw the arrow back, and it struck one of them.Then I realized running wasn't an option.There were too many of them. They were coming from every direction.So I decided to shift into my wolf form.I was no longer hiding her. If anything, I was proud of her.But the moment I tried to shift, they started throwing werewolf bombs at me.That's when I realized why some of them were wearing those strange outfi
Madeline:We had been ready to leave, but that was when a loud knock came at the door.Baxter was the one who opened it, and when he stepped aside, I saw Lord Eldon standing there. I rolled my eyes at his arrival."What do you want now?" I asked him, getting up from the bed and moving toward the do
Madeline:We left our bags inside the room and stepped out with the children. Baxter lifted both the girls while I carried Bodhi.We walked toward the line of trees behind the motel. The woods were dark, and the ground felt damp under my boots.Baxter kept looking around as if he were already searc
Madeline:Of course, I was disgusted by Graham, but the fact that he truly believed I would want him to take care of my daughter made him seem delusional.“As if I would ever want my daughter to go with him.” As soon as I said that, I watched Graham’s face darken."Oh, don't look at me like that. Y
Madeline:The motel room did not smell bad. It seemed they had used air freshener.The bedsheets were clean. It was a small room, but it looked neatly arranged.There was one queen-size bed against the wall and a couch beside it with a window behind it.There was no closet and no carpet.There were
