295 –Meeting Her Again At The Cabin

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 also the files and the confirmation letters from Lady Eugenia stating she did not mind me intervening in pack matters. That only reinforced the fact that even the previous alphas supported me.

“And I also heard you’re having triplets. Congratulations,” Elgin added, hugging me again and patting my back.

I could tell he felt defeated. He looked pale today, unable to answer questions, clearly unprepared.

Meanwhile, I kept winning one argument after another, explaining the plans I had made for the improvement of the pack and pointing out the issues that had been affecting it.

“Anyway, after you’ve celebrated all the good news coming at you from every direction, I hope you have enough time to discuss how we’re going to get the researcher to come and help us this time p>

It felt like Elgin had to ruin the moment for me. The minute he mentioned the new sickness, my smile began to falter.

“You have the biggest pack under your rule now, almost the size of three packs,” he continued. “And then you still have your own. I really hope you come up with a solid plan because the sickness is getting worse by the second p>

I was about to remind him that I had hoped to take a few days to enjoy time with my family when he added, “I’m only saying this because my daughters are being affected. Otherwise, I would’ve let you enjoy this first p>

That explanation helped.

“So what exactly is going on with the sickness?” I asked.

I didn’t have children of my own, and I had been so busy with Kaylee that I’d shut out all the news.

I had even told my warriors and my royal beta not to talk to me about anything unless it was related to my child.

“The kids are being hit with multiple illnesses,” Elgin explained. “One is that they suddenly drop to the ground and fall into a deep sleep. The second is-” He paused, stepping closer and shoving his hands into his pants pockets. “The kids are lying. They’re lying to cause trouble p>

That sent a chill down my spine.

“And that’s not normal,” he went on. “If you can’t trust a child’s words, how do you know when they’re telling the truth? How do you know if someone is stealing from them, or if it’s another lie p>

He stepped back after saying that, leaving me unsettled.

“ It seems like we’ll have to speak with Madeline again,” Elgin said. There was a bored look on his face when he mentioned her name.

Of course, she had left us scarred. We had done so much for her, and in the end, she proved she didn’t really need

She wanted anyone, anyone to save her and warm her bed. That was all.

“Oh, not that slut,” my father muttered.

The comment annoyed me, but I held it in. It wasn’t like he was completely wrong.

“Well, then I guess we should all go together and talk to her,” I decided.

I knew she would be difficult to persuade after what happened at her wedding. She would do everything she could to give us a hard time now. 1

“But when? When should we do it? I can’t watch my children suffer,” Elgin insisted. 1

My father nodded in agreement.

“I think you two should go as soon as possible. Maybe today?” he suggested. “I already know where they are. It’s a cabin in the mountains. Get ready and leave. However, I suggest you take your wives with you. You never know when that woman might try to seduce you. ”

My father was right. I knew the moment Madeline saw us, she would feel something. 2

She would probably want us to feel the same. Her husband was no longer an alpha, and I was doing well. 1

She might even grow jealous when she found out my mate was pregnant. I was sure Madeline wouldn’t be able to hide her feelings for me. 3

But I wasn’t in love with her.

That settled it. Elgin and I were visiting Madeline that day.

“ Welcome Back into my arms, my love p>

his voice thundered and so did my heart. I raised my eyes and saw Sawyer stand before me, a mixture of pain and anger in his eyes while his lips carried a very fake smile.
