Graham:
I was anxious the entire day, thinking about Madeline working at Elgin's mansion.
Now that he was divorcing his wife, I had a bad feeling he would insist on starting over with Madeline.
I knew how he felt about the packs. Since Madeline was once again a member, I was worried.
He would pull strings to keep her around, and at the same time, he would try to win her back.
To vent my anger, I decided to visit her sister’s house.
The woman who had single-handedly ruined everything for me, even my last plan.
I entered the mansion and noticed the living room was empty that night.
“Where is your Luna?” I asked the maid walking past me.
She glanced at me, then lifted her chin toward the second floor.
I understood the gesture.
“She’s in her bedroom resting?” I clarified.
The maid nodded.
It seemed their shifts had ended and they were preparing to leave.
“Well then, go ahead. I’ll wait for her here. When she comes down, I’ll speak with her,” I told her.
I did not let the maid know that I had not come to speak with Luna. I simply wanted them gone.
The maid nodded and walked off.
I sat in the living room, checking my phone, when I saw Elgin calling.
He had left several messages, and they were alarming.
Elgin: dude, I have news for you.
Elgin: Where are you?
Elgin: Come on, it’s very important.
Elgin: It's about Madeline.
My ears perked up.
When his name flashed across my screen again, I answered immediately.
“You said there was something important?” I asked at once.
I heard him grunt on the other side.
“Actually, I’m really sorry. I was driving,” I added, excusing myself for not answering earlier.
“Well, there’s huge breaking news,” Elgin announced.
He sounded upbeat, and that unsettled me.
I checked the time and realized Madeline must have already left his mansion.
What was he so happy about?
“Really? Tell me. What is it?” I urged, biting my nails.
“So today she arrived here and started treating the patients. I was already having issues with my wife,” Elgin explained.
There was a cheerfulness in his tone that stole most of my attention.
“Okay, and?” I pressed, wanting him to get to the point.
“And then Madeline came to me and asked me something,” he continued.
His voice dropped to almost a whisper.
My heart stopped at that moment.
I could not even ask him what it was.
I waited for him to continue.
“She asked me what would happen to her children if she agreed to marry me.”
