Married My Ex's Alpha Uncle (Silver and Elliot) novel Chapter 109

How had this become my life?

“Are you sure you want to do this?” Marco asked, his voice soft and understanding as he watched me.

I let myself grieve for a moment longer; I let my body shake and quiver as I sobbed. But now it was time to become stronger and a better version of myself. I straightened myself and forced a smile on my lips as I nodded my head.

“Yes,” I answered, more confidently than I felt. “I just needed a moment. I’m ready.”

The thought of anything happening to her sent a pain in my chest. I’m not one to scare easily, but it was terrifying when Erik told me she had been taken by my rogues.

I was beyond grateful to Shirley for saving my wife’s life. I owed her more than I could pay. I owed it to Shirley to make sure she at least recovered after getting hurt in this battle. But I also didn’t like the fact that Silver was out of my sight.

“I’m going to return home so I can see her,” I informed both Shirley and my Beta. “Will you stay here with Shirley?” I asked Beta Leo.
