375–I Can Be Your Hero Or Teddy Bear
Byron:
“I meant it, I don’t want someone else to intervene and become a hurdle.” I tried to explain, because looking at her being mad, I did not know, something frightened me. As she kept glaring at me, I added,
“So basically my blood will be used for some ritual,” I explained.
“What is in it for you?” Ron questioned, cutting me off.
Thankfully, Ron changed the subject as he questioned my motives. I watched Sean look at me excitedly.
We had been waiting for a moment like this, for someone to ask us this question, so I could put all our burden on them and ask for a lot of money.
But the problem was that Madeline was standing right next to him, watching my face, waiting for me to tell them what I did and what I needed from them in exchange for help.
“We will talk about it later. For now, I just know that my friend is in danger,” I told them.
The minute I mentioned Baxter as my friend, both Ron and Madeline turned to each other, and then my own friend looked at me.
Sean had a strange look on his face, but I avoided looking back at him.
“He was your friend?” Madeline questioned, as expected.
“We were kind of very close,” I uttered softly, sniffling as if I were dying from the pain of losing my friend.
“I thought he was the one who put you behind the ban,” Ron remarked.
I wanted to ask this man what his purpose was in coming here. I mean, I would take care of everything from here. He did not need to stick around her.
“Well, that is a long story. Anyway, I am really saddened by the fact that you are going through the loss of your husband and your daughter, but trust me, I believe they are alive,” I told her. 1
The minute I said that, Madeline’s eyes shone with hope, and it made me smile in return.
“I want to rescue him, then. I want to rescue my family,” Madeline said, placing her gentle hand on her very intimidating chest.
“And I will help you with everything I can,” I replied, noticing Ron staring at me a little too hard.
“Oh, by the way, Madeline, the council has been asking for a court date,” Ron added.
Of course, Ron had to intervene. Sometimes some men could not get a hint that they were side characters now. I rolled my eyes and noticed Sean still staring at me.
“While you two talk, I would like to have a word with my alpha,” Sean excused them.
We stepped toward the fence.

“What was that?” Sean demanded, his hands on his waist, eyes narrowed.
“What? I just want to know how desperate they are, and then I will fix my price,” I lied.
Honestly, standing in front of that woman for a few minutes changed something in me.
I did not know what it was. She was very beautiful, and I could not come across as desperate in front of her.
“Byron, please be honest with me. What are you thinking?” Sean requested.
“Nothing. Listen, I think she is very desperate for her husband and mate, and she looks so sad. I do not want to take advantage of a woman who is going through so much pain. Besides, the moon goddess says to help others without asking for anything in return. I am just doing that,” I replied. 1
As I finished speaking, Sean gave me a disgusted look.
“I knew it. I knew there was something wrong. The way you were watching her,” he muttered, then instantly shut up as she returned.
“When can we start planning on chasing the monster to his home?” Madeline asked.
“Whenever you say,” I replied.
“Um, actually, we have some pack matters,” Sean began to intervene.
I raised a hand to stop him.
“And those matters can wait. Besides, what is this court date about?” I asked Madeline, fixing my jacket.
“Byron,” Sean tried again, but I gave him a harsh look to silence him.
“Sean, why don’t you go and take care of the pack matters you are talking about? We really need to take care of that too,” I told him.
That was my way of telling him that one more word would push me over the edge.
“Fine. We will have this talk later,” Sean uttered, wandering away, though I knew he would linger nearby.
“Yeah, so what were you saying, Your Highness?” I asked Madeline, and the title slipped out. 1
“Oh, I am so sorry. I keep thinking of you as the Luna. Anyway, my apologies. So what were you saying?” I added, tying my hands behind my back.
“You were asking about the court case?” she reminded me, and I nodded.
I kept staring at her face as she explained what the court case was, and the playful grin on my lips slowly disappeared.
“Oh, so those alphas—“I began, then shut up.
Graham and Elgin were the culprits of her agony.
The way she explained everything, and then Ron arrived and told me what the whole case was about. I could tell Madeline one thing.

‘There was an easy fix to all this. Bring the two pea–brain alphas to the mountain top, summon the and exchange those two assholes for her family.‘
monster,
But of course, I did not say it out loud, because in front of her, I was an innocent little alpha, the cutest little teddy bear she could hug and forget all her pain.
