158–Special She–Wolves Marry More Than Once
Madeline:
Silver had been screaming at everyone at this point, standing in the living room.
“Elgin, are you going to do anything about it?” Baxter finally stood up after tiredly waiting for her to stop throwing her tantrums.
“What do you mean?” Silver looked at Baxter, questioning what he was referring to when he asked Elgin to do something.
“Silver, come with me,” Elgin told her as he grabbed her elbow and tried to drag her away.
“No, tell me you are not marrying her. Why would you marry her? Let him or Graham marry her!” Silver shouted.
The moment she said that about Baxter and pointed at him, both Baxter and I snapped our heads toward each other.
Our eyes met in an accidental stare before we looked away.
“That is not how it works. I am mates with her,” Elgin stated. Silver shook her head.
“There is no way. If she gave birth to three, then she must be mated to three. It would not be that hard to believe,” she yelled, stomping her foot.
But she actually gave me a useful idea. I could use that excuse.
Elgin had exposed our mate bond because it restricted me from marrying anyone else, but what she said could expand my options.
However, what would I even do with that?
There was Graham and Baxter. I did not want to marry Graham because that would mean his games had worked.
As for Baxter, he was getting engaged. I could not marry him either.
Besides, neither of us seemed to want to marry each other.
“Come on, come with me. We will talk,” Elgin insisted as he dragged her out, and by now she was really getting on my nerves.
As he pulled her out of the room, I slammed my hand against my forehead and sat down.
“Mommy, is the bad auntie gone?” Bodhi voiced from the half–ajar door, and I instantly put on a smile for him.
“It is okay, she was just upset about something,” I replied as he walked out with Elara and Gina behind him.
The three rushed over and stood in front of me.
Baxter sat on the couch right behind them, elbows on his thighs and hands joined together as he watched us interact.
“But why was she saying that you are marrying Uncle Elgin? Why would you marry him? Aren’t you married to Daddy?” Elara asked, and I gently caressed her cheek.
“I am, but things here work differently,” I stated, feeling lost about how I was supposed to explain anything to
them.

“How, Mommy? Everybody here also has one husband and wife?” Bodhi asked, referring to all the people we had met here.
“That is because your mother is special,” Baxter replied, drawing their attention away from me.
I let go of a deep breath I had been holding ever since their questions began, and I had no answer for them.
“So, special people have more husbands and wives?” Gina wondered.
Both Baxter and I shared a glance before we started laughing.
“Now, how do I answer that?” Baxter asked me, pointing at Gina.
“You don’t have to. It is okay. You have already done enough,” I told him with a soft smile on my lips. “What about you?” I asked.
My kids wandered away to look at the tray and the food on it.
“What about me?” he questioned.
“Your engagement ceremony is in a few days, and Yuvonne must have found out what is going on,” I replied.
I noticed the way he crinkled his eyebrows, as if he did not believe a word of it.
“I mean, she is staying at the guest house with the others. There will be huge debates and conversations happening there,” I explained.
He pouted, puckering his lips while zoning out.
“They do not really talk with each other,” Baxter responded, telling me about the three different women staying at the guest house.
“Are all the preparations done? I mean, you are spending time here with the children. I don’t want her to think I am ruining her special day preparations as well,” I told him.
I had to give her respect because the man sitting in front of me was not only my ex–best friend, but my father, my sister’s fiancé, and someone who had been standing up for me and helping me.
“She is doing it, and my mother too, but-” he paused, sounding lost.
“But what?” I asked him.
