Chapter 359: Chapter 359 Whispers in the Night

The clinic was dead quiet, the kind of silence that felt heavy and wrong.

Cecilia stood frozen, her face pale as the truth sank in.

Next to her, Alpha Sebastian clenched his jaw, his whole expression turning cold.

Cassian noticed the shift immediately and stepped in.

"Look, this has to be a mistake," he said quickly. "I’ll talk to my grandmother in the morning. We can go together if you want."

His voice stayed calm, but the tension in his shoulders gave him away.

"My grandmother would never hurt anyone. But if those cakes really came from her place, then something’s seriously off."

He blew out a long breath.

"I’ve never seen anything like this before. I messed up. I’m sorry."

Alpha Sebastian’s voice was low and sharp. "Your territory isn’t as safe as you think. Someone’s changing the rules."

Cassian didn’t argue. He knew exactly what that meant.

After what happened years ago, Martha had moved to this mountain town and cut ties with Maggie. Since then, Maggie had never dared come near this place.

Twenty years of peace, undone by one poisoned cake.

This wasn’t a mix-up. It was a message.

Cassian’s face hardened as the truth settled in.

Cecilia didn’t say anything. Her thoughts were spinning too fast to put into words.

She walked over and sat by Harper’s bed. The IV line clicked softly as it dripped.

Harper was mumbling in her sleep, saying things that didn’t make sense. Something about commanding officers, nests, and traitors.

Cecilia’s chest tightened. She never should’ve brought her here. But Denver hadn’t been safe either.

Behind her, Beta Sawyer was checking on Tang and Levi. He leaned in and kept his voice low.

"What about Levi’s wife ? Yulia, right ? Didn’t she eat the cake too ?"

Cecilia blinked. "She did. After dinner, we all went upstairs. I haven’t seen her since."

Beta Sawyer frowned. "What if she’s affected too, and no one noticed ?"

A chill ran down Cecilia’s spine. She’d been so caught up in Harper and Tang, she hadn’t thought about Yulia at all.

She turned to Cassian right away.

He didn’t hesitate. Within minutes, he had people out looking for her.

By the time the IVs were done, it was close to midnight. All three patients had finally fallen into a deep, heavy sleep.

We found Yulia thanks to security footage.

After she ate the cake, she brought her empty plate to Martha’s house.

The video showed her chatting with Fiona at the door. They were both smiling when they walked inside.

Nothing seemed wrong. No panic. No struggle. Not even a raised voice.

So why didn’t she come back out ? No one knew.

The guards didn’t dare knock.

That was Martha Locke’s house. People around here still treated her like royalty.

At least we knew Yulia was in there. That was something.

Sebastian and Cassian made sure someone stayed behind to watch the clinic, then brought me along to Martha’s place.

I didn’t really want to go. But I was the only one who’d seen it all and was still on my feet.
