Baxter:Madeline had been tense ever since Yuvonne came with me, and at first, I did not blame her.I understood she had every right to be upset, and I honestly blamed myself.But I was put in a situation where I had no choice but to help a victim who was directly asking me for help.The same victim who had been there for me when I needed help.In a way, I did not want to come across as someone who took all the help from her, but disappeared when she needed help.However, things had escalated too much. Madeline was now even taking the children away from me.I had seen a clear hint of disbelief in her eyes when I questioned Gina’s memory.“I am so sorry this is all happening because of me,” Yuvonne said as I stared at the empty spot Madeline had left.“It is not because of you. We had our own issues,” she added.“I will go and speak with her,” I said to Yuvonne without turning toward her.I was honestly disappointed in Madeline. But then again, she was probably right in her own way.I

Graham:“She changed her mind at the last minute,” my father told me at the dinner table, and I started to chuckle.“I knew she would do that. There is no way a materialistic woman would go and live in the woods,” I said, taking a big bite of the lasagna in front of me.My beautiful mate had wanted lasagna, so I had asked cooks from all over the world to come on this special day and make it for her. She seemed to be enjoying the taste.“That is why I had to add a little sprinkle of my own magic,” my father remarked, and we both chuckled.“The council members, especially the council lady, told her that even if she wanted to stay, she could never stay in the pack again. She would be sent to the old age home, and of course, that was not acceptable to Lady Eugenia,” my father added, smirking at me.Together, we were fire. I wondered why I had been so resistant all this time. I could have had such a perfect life if I had listened to my father earlier.“Why do you think she left? She could

Graham:“Congratulations on winning the pack,” Lady Abigail said to me, shaking my hand and smiling ear to ear.The blood rain pack had always been my dream. I had always thought Baxter was lucky to have such a perfect pack. Now, it felt like the pack had been meant for me all along.“Thank you so much,” I replied, then watched as she and the other council members and leaders left.My father stood beside me, happily accepting bows from everyone.“Congratulations, man. I didn’t know you knew so much about the blood rain pack,” Elgin remarked as he approached me. There was bitterness in his tone.It felt strange yet comforting to sit in the same hallway where all the candidates had been seated.Usually, physical fights decided who would become the alpha of a pack, unless the previous alpha handed over the crown. My case had been different.My father’s influence had earned me enough votes that a physical fight was deemed unnecessary. The leaders decided I was the best option.There were a

Elgin:We had arrived with our wives in the car. Of course, Graham insisted that his wife not come out. Meanwhile, I let my beautiful silver walk the trail with me.My kids were in the car as well. We were having a great time, but the moment I reached the door, my mood began to sour.They had managed to find themselves a better-looking home in the rogue community, and that bothered me.It was a sturdy-looking cabin. Who the fuck left this cabin here for them? It felt like they did not even have to work hard to find a place.If I had known earlier, I would have torn down this cabin before they took it over.But the damage was already done. They were living there as if they had achieved something.When Graham knocked on the door, Baxter and Madeline answered. Honestly, seeing the two of them together made me scoff.I noticed how Madeline quickly scanned both of us. Of course she did. Her husband stood beside her in old clothes and a torn shirt, while we looked like models.I could only

Madeline:“What were the two doing here? Did they come to ask you to come back home?” Lady Eugenia pressed, catching up instantly. I knew she had been watching from the window the whole time.“They came to talk about the sickness,” Baxter replied casually, not stopping to explain further as he moved past everyone. He headed toward the small storeroom on the second floor.“They didn’t ask you to come back?” Lady Eugenia insisted, following after him.I watched her trail behind him, continuing to bother him.“No, but they did remind me that tomorrow is my dethroning,” Baxter said, stopping briefly.The way her eyes widened and her jaw dropped made me wonder whether she was pretending to be shocked or truly had no idea it was happening tomorrow.“Don’t trust her.”Eugenia’s words made me snap my head toward her.“What did you just say?” I asked, crossing my arms. It felt like she thought we were on the same side.“I said don’t trust anything she does or asks you to do,” Eugenia replied, r
