Chapter 391

391–Never Getting A Break

Madeline:

Those few hours felt like the end of the world.

First, I was told that my husband had died, and that my daughter was gone as well.

Then, a small piece of hope was given to me. My husband was alive, but his condition was critical.

I could not understand how I was supposed to feel. I did not know whether I should be happy that my husband was alive or cry for my daughter, who was no longer there.

They gave me a few injections and tried to stabilize me.

Yuvonne brought me back with her. She took me to the motel where my children were waiting for me.

They had no idea what I had been through. They did not know what kind of pain their mother had faced.

They also did not know that a huge change was coming into their lives, that they would never see their sister again. The injections and medication had left me numb.

When we reached the motel, Yuvonne immediately guided me into my room and made me sit down.

Lord Jonah, who had been sitting on the bed with my children, stood up at once. He adjusted the blanket over them and walked toward me. 1

“I put them to sleep,” he told me softly. “They were a little upset. They kept asking about you. They miss their father and their sister a lot p>

He then sat down beside me on the sofa.

“What happened?” he asked. “Is she okay?” Lord Jonah asked Yuvonne.

Yuvonne stood there holding back her tears, rubbing her hands together again and again. She sniffled and shook her head.

“Is it true?” Lord Jonah asked. I knew he could not even finish the sentence. Tears were already falling from his eyes before he could speak.

“Is my son really dead?” he asked again, this time pressing both hands to his chest. Tears streamed down his face.

My own heart felt as if it were tearing apart from the pain.

“There is no good news,” Yuvonne replied, standing close beside me.

She placed her hand gently on my shoulder to comfort me, but I was not truly present anymore. It felt as if the world around me was shaking, everything moving, while I stood completely still.

“So it is true?” Lord Jonah asked again. This time, he covered his eyes with both hands.

“No, Baxter is still alive,” Yuvonne said.

The moment those words left her mouth, I felt a small sense of relief settle inside me. But it did not last long.

Yuvonne added quietly, “But Gina is no longer with us p>

She had barely finished saying it when I broke apart. I started crying uncontrollably, even though I had been given

a lot of medication.

“What?” Lord Jonah asked, rising from the sofa at once. “What does that mean p>

“Please come with me,” Yuvonne said gently. “I will explain everything. It is not right to repeat all of this in front of her. The doctor has already given her medication p>

She spoke to Lord Jonah calmly, explaining my condition, then gestured that she would talk to him outside.

“Yes, please take care of her,” Lord Jonah replied. “I will tell Baxter’s mother that Baxter is alive p>

With that, Lord Jonah quickly left the room.

Yuvonne stepped closer to me and placed both hands on my shoulders. She helped me lie down on the couch and covered me with a blanket.

“Please rest, okay?” she said softly.

After gently squeezing my hand, she stepped out of the room.

I knew a lot was going to happen outside. Many questions would be asked.

I also knew that Yuvonne could handle everything.

After some time, she returned to the room. She had arranged a small bed for herself here.

Because she was a Luna, her words carried weight. (1)

Then, suddenly, in the middle of the night, her phone started ringing.

My eyes opened, but I did not sit up fully. I could not help listening.

“Hello? Why are you calling at this hour?” she asked quietly.

I thought it was a warrior.

She might have said a name, but I was too dazed to think clearly or focus on it.

“What?” she said suddenly. “What are you saying? When did this happen p>

The panic in her voice made my heart race. I sat up at once.

“What happened?” I asked. “Is Baxter okay p>

Tears started spilling from my eyes without warning.

“What? No, please tell me this is not true,” she asked desperately.

“Where is Ron right now?” Yuvonne asked into the phone.

The way she cried, broken and shaken, told me that something was very wrong.

We were both crying, but I waited for her to end the call and tell me what had happened.

“I am coming right now,” she said. “I cannot leave Ron like this p>

She ended the call and looked at me.

Fear filled both our eyes. Then she said the words I never wanted to hear.

The moment she said it, she broke down.
