285–He Came Back With His Ex

“Mommy, when will Daddy arrive home?” Elara asked, sitting on the bed and blinking her big eyes while coloring in a book.

They had picked a few coloring books from the closet, and I could not say no to them.

That was how life as a rogue worked. I was bitter about it. That other family had tried to ruin us.

They had even burned our home down. So yes, I was angry, and I did not stop the kids when they took their toys and ran off.

“Wow, I am turning into a bad person now,” I complained under my breath before lifting my head and smiling at Elara.

“Very soon,” I replied.

She nodded and looked back down at her coloring.

We were in the same room as before. I sat near the couch with the window open, looking outside. As I watched, something caught my attention.

That family had arrived.

They went into one of the rooms with another girl. This time, the girl had short purple hair.

I remembered them mentioning that another woman, the uncle’s mate, was coming.

If she had her own room, that meant they were staying at the motel.

I watched the whole family walk in together. The moment Bonnie lifted her head, her eyes met mine.

Goosebumps spread across my skin. I had no idea where they had gone, and seeing them again filled my head with questions.

Why would they leave a perfectly good home? They did not look injured at all.

Bonnie looked at me, then raised her middle finger before walking into the room.

“Mommy, aren’t those the bad people?” a small voice asked.

I had not noticed Bodhi standing beside the couch, staring out the window as well.

“Bodhi, stay away from them, okay?” I told him, realizing that being near them could be dangerous.

“I will, but why are they here? Are they going to take our home from us?” Bodhi questioned.

I wondered if he truly thought we would ever go back to that cabin.

“No, Bodhi, that is not our home,” I told him.

Bodhi groaned and walked away, stomping off like a wrestler leaving the ring, and went to join his sister.

“Mommy, I want a chocolate bar,” Gina requested, making me nod.

Baxter had given me some money after telling his mother that I needed things to take care of the children while he was gone. That money would come in handy because my children needed a few things, especially snacks.

I got up from the couch and stepped outside, keeping an eye on the kids through the window as I headed toward the vending machine. That was when I noticed the girl standing there, the one who had come with that family.

I tried to act like I did not see her, but once we stood next to each other in front of the vending machines, she turned to me and smiled.

“Hi, I’m Yuri. I’m also a rogue. Hello, neighbor,” she said.

She was chatty. It reminded me of how Bonnie used to be, so I only nodded and focused on the vending machine.

“Oh, are rogues not very friendly?” she joked.

“I’m Madeline,” I replied briefly as I selected the chocolate bar.

“Where do you guys live?” she asked.

I wondered if this was the same approach Bonnie had used before. This time, though, I had questions of my own.

“Nowhere. We’re looking for a place. What about you? I thought your family had found a cabin,” I said, wondering why they never mentioned us or what they had done to us. Maybe this was just how they were, pretending nothing had happened.

“Oh, the mountain one?” she asked. “It was pretty far from where I’d be going for work.”

That caught my attention.

“What do you mean?” I asked.

“I found a small rogue community near the border,” she explained. “They do chores for pack members, like bringing fruit or helping out, and they get paid. It’s decent money, and everyone sticks together. So I convinced them to leave the cabin. I wasn’t going to travel all that way just to come back and look for work.”

As she spoke, I realized the cabin itself might not have been the issue, but I still had questions.

“I thought you ran away from the cabin,” I said and she smiled.

“I heard there were rogues attacking women. They heard a girl screaming and left right away. It’s a whole thing. You should be careful too. There are dangerous men out there. And if you stay near the border, you have to be quick. When work comes up, whoever gets there first takes it.”

She shrugged and turned back to the vending machine.

So they left because of the three rogues attacking women. They did not know those men had already been dealt with. Did that mean the cabin was empty now?

With that thought in mind, I returned to the room feeling lighter.

Once I returned to my room, I had only just sat down with my children, thinking about everything, when I heard a knock on the door. I got up without even looking out the window. I was so eager to welcome Baxter back and tell him what I had found out that I forgot about everything else. I opened the door with a bright smile on my lips.

“We got a home,” I told Baxter with a wide smile.

As soon as I said it, I noticed that Baxter did not share the same enthusiasm. I quickly understood why. Stepping out from behind him was none other than my Yuvonne, with her bags placed right beside her on the ground.
