Chapter 615

Byron:

“It better be really urgent,” I told him.

I did not know why I disliked this guy.

To be honest, I did not like anyone related to Graham or Elgin.

I had noticed the way he looked at Madeline. Not in a bad way, but like he was admiring her.

I mean, I get it. She was gorgeous, and everyone admired her. But still, why?

“It actually is. I, um… I just heard Silver talking to someone on the phone.”

I started gesturing toward the warriors to stand around the children, making sure they did not wander away.

I realized he was calling me to gossip about his alpha’s luna, it was something truly with listening to

“And she was talking about the forbidden woods. The dry woods outside Ron’s pack.”

He waited for my reaction, and honestly, I was still trying to piece together what any of this had to do with anything.

“She was talking about Madeline. I think this is where you’ll find her.”

The moment he said that, my hands curled into fists.

“How the fuck does she know?” I groaned, already starting to pace as I moved to inform Ron.

He had been looking for Madeline ever since he heard she had wandered off.

He also knew that when he found her, he would find Yuvonne’s body too, because they would most likely be in the same place.

“I can take a guess and say she might have been behind the abduction somehow. But right now, you need to find her. These people are vicious, and she was saying some crazy stuff,” he warned.

My hands tingled with a strange urge, like I wanted to beat the fuck out of someone.

“Okay, fine. We’ll go look for her,” I said, not even wanting to ask what else she had said.

I already had a bad feeling.

She wanted something done to Madeline.

We should have known it was one of these people causing chaos.

How the hell did people go crazy so quickly? They usually waited for Madeline to come up with the cure.

Then again, they went crazy anyway. That was how entitled people worked.

Once I hung up the call, I ran straight to Ron.

He had just arrived in his car, and I could tell he had not found anything from the look he gave me.

But I had news for him, so I approached him quickly.

“I know where Madeline is,” I said, watching Ron straighten almost immediately.

“Well then, let’s go get her,” he stated, not even asking anything first.

That alone showed how worried we were about her safety.

I jumped into the car with him, and some of the warriors followed, while the others, especially Sean, stayed behind with the children.

I could not trust Lady Eugenia with them.

The way she had scratched me when I tried to walk away still burned, like her nails carried something filthy.

“Why are you so restless?” Ron asked in his deep, rough voice.

“Lady Eugenia scratched me on the back of my neck,” I told him.

I noticed the way Ron adjusted the mirror to look at me.

“What?” he questioned.

I had expected that reaction.

“Yeah, she was terrorizing the

children, so I warned her to stand

she got aggressive Surprise,

surprise,” Tadded, rolling me

eyes.

“Anyway, how did you find out about Madeline?” he asked in a restless tone.

Now that we were in the car, I had expected him to ask that.

“Mathew called me. He said Silver was talking to someone,” I replied.

I explained that Mathew also

mentioned something else was

going on, that Silver was speak

aggressively about Madeline and

trying to do something to her.

“Wait, you’re telling me that whatever happened, and however those people reacted, one of them was connected to Silver? Which means stopping Madeline from bringing the cure for Yuvonne was initiated by her?”

The way he put it made me go silent. I honestly had not thought that far.

I was too focused on Madeline to consider anything else.

Of course, his mind went straight to his Luna.

“I think we need to find Madeline and ask her what happened when she met those

people,” I said, trying to keep him calm.

But the way he sped up told me he had already understood the situation.

Or maybe he was still putting the pieces together, and they did not sit well with him.

Of course they would not.

Who would be okay with their Luna dying because she was denied medicine that could have saved her in minutes?

Now we had to hurry.

If Madeline had left on her own to meet these people and help them with the children, then why the fuck had she not returned our calls?

Why had she turned her phone off?

She would have contacted me to let me know she was fine, or at least to reassure her children.

The fact that she had not done that was already terrifying.

Then we finally arrived at the woods.

The chaos and the growling were the first things I heard the moment I stepped out.

Ron and I exchanged a glance as wolves howled from inside, mixed with a woman’s

scream.

And I just had this gut feeling that something terrible had happened.

I just hoped we were not too late.
