Accidentally Pregnant By My Alpha Best friends (Madeline) novel Chapter 367

367–His Plan, My Heartbreak

Madeline:

“Oh, remember that lady, that family who took the home from us, the cabin?” I replied. “They actually left because they found a close border where they could get jobs, different kinds of jobs from the pack members.”

As I tried to explain, the look on Ron’s face made me stop mid–sentence.

“What is that look?” I asked Ron in a soft, gentle, yet questioning tone.

“Madeline, now I understand what happened,” Ron replied, pausing.

He took a deep breath and leaned back before slamming his hand against the steering wheel, startling me.

“That family fucking lied to you. There is no job on the border. They ran away from the monster and made sure that you stayed there so that you all would get attacked.”

As soon as he said that, I felt like someone had drained the life out of my body.

“No, the family,” I paused as my heart started to beat in my head. “That’s not possible,” I uttered softly.

A tear forced its way out of my eyes. Not because I trusted that family so much that their lying left me unsettled. It made sense that they had lied.

They were careless people. They did not want anyone else to find out that the place had been attacked by a monster or that they had seen one.

They probably thought it would just be another day, another moment, another trap for us.

Of course, I would not excuse them for staying quiet, because by the end of the day, my daughter was taken away

from me.

I hated anyone who had played even a small part in anything that led to that.

But at that moment, I was more worried about what the lie truly meant. If there was no border to work at, where did Baxter go?

“Wait,” I uttered, my voice breaking.

I quickly placed my hand on my forehead, trying to calm myself.

“Madeline, are you okay?” Ron asked, shifting in his seat.

He straightened his back and reached over to hold my hand, watching my face to see if I was all right.

“You said Baxter went to speak with his friends about the witness?” I asked him, watching him stare at me, waiting for me to finish.

“What if he got the information and decided to go there alone, to fight the monster, to summon it?”

The moment I said it, the look on Ron’s face told me everything. He was thinking the same thing I was.

“We need to hurry up,” I told Ron, anxiously rubbing my palms together.

He picked up his phone and dialed his warrior’s number.

“I want you to gather all the warriors you can and move toward the mountain top. And remember, there will be an Alpha there. Make sure he remains unharmed, but be prepared to fight the monster I briefed you on earlier,” Ron instructed hastily.

While he spoke, I felt like I was losing my grip. Everything around me suddenly went quiet, and all I could think about was one dream I had earlier.

The one where the shadow asked me to choose between my daughter and my husband. When I

said it would choose for me.

“Madeline,” Ron called, his voice snapping me out of my thoughts.

I turned to him, my vision blurring. I had to blink several times, letting the tears fall so I could see clearly again.

“Don’t worry, maybe he’s not even there,” he reassured me.

Ron drove like crazy because he could tell I was about to lose my mind if we did not reach in time.

When we arrived at the trail, I saw the warriors running back, almost as if they were retreating. The moment they spotted us on the path, they stopped and bowed to Ron.

Ron stepped out of the car, and I did too.

“What is going on? Is Baxter up there?” I asked the warriors.

Before they could respond to Ron, their attention was already on me, since I was the one questioning them as well.

“Your Highness, we are really, really sorry. That thing, that thing is crazy,” one of the warriors replied to Ron instead, stealing eyes from me.

The moment those words left the warrior’s mouth, I knew that my fear had not been without reason.

“What do you mean by that? I told you to fight it, to save the Alpha,” Ron yelled.

I was already running past the warrior.

“No, Madeline, wait!” I heard Ron call after me, but I rushed ahead of him.

There were still some warriors hiding among the trees, and I could tell that some of the even make a sound.

The closer I got to the cabin, the more I began to hear the loud screams, the grunts of the monster, and then Baxter’s agonizing gruntings.

The moment I stepped onto the main ground, I saw the monster spreading its wings wide, with Baxter standing beneath it, holding a sword.

However, ropes were tied around his waist, and while he acknowledged that I was there, he had already looped the rope and somehow tied it around the monster’s feet.
