Sherry:
We sat down and finalized everything. Every decision had been made.
Our first priority was to delete that video from Graham’s phone. Madeline would get close to Elgin so she could find out where he got the video from and where he had shared it. At the same time, we were going to focus on Ron’s case.
We discussed everything together. For the first time, I saw Yuvonne that talkative again. She was actively participating, explaining what we should do and what we should avoid.
During all of this, we made sure she ate properly. She even took her medicines without delay this time. She chewed them carefully and swallowed them without resistance.
Sometimes tears filled her eyes, but she forced a smile.
She said she was lucky that we had stopped her that night, that Byron had pulled her back before she ended her life. But nothing had truly changed as long as Graham and Elgin were still walking free.
I was not going to stop.
I was going to destroy Graham in a way his generations would remember.
Then I laughed.
He would not even have generations. The way he boasted about having pack after pack, the way he believed he would have enough children to rule every pack as Alpha, all of that pride was about to shatter.
I was going to crush those dreams.
Just then, while I was sitting with them, Graham’s phone call came through.
I shot everyone a warning look, signaling them not to speak, and put the call on speaker.
"Sherry."
It was the way he spoke my name, his lips trembling, that made us all stare at each other with wide eyes.
There was something in his voice, some hidden emotion, like something terrible had happened.
"Graham, are you okay?" I asked, faking concern in my voice.
"I am really lonely tonight. Penny is still in a very weak condition, and my father has been admitted for regular BP checks because his blood pressure kept shooting up. And then there is Kaylee. I hate her presence. I need you right now," Graham said, explaining his miseries to me.
The more he spoke, the more satisfied we all felt at his downfall. I wanted him to describe in detail what he was going through, because that would make Yuvonne happy.
"Oh no, is there nobody else with you?" I asked, keeping my tone concerned.
"Kaylee’s father is here, my father’s royal beta," he replied. "And there are other friends and family too. But I need to get out of here for some time. Can we please meet at our usual spot at the cabin?"
He sounded desperate.
I raised my eyebrow and folded my arms across my chest in exhaustion.
"Sure. You could ask me to come to hell, and I would still be there for you," I said in a dramatic tone, lowering my voice slightly so he would believe I was pouring my heart into every word.
