55 Saved By A Call
Madeline:
As my phone rang again, I saw Elgin getting irritated.
“This call can wait. I need answers first,” Elgin pointed at my phone, speaking quickly to stop me from picking it
However, I ignored him and grabbed my phone, watching Alpha Ron’s name flash on the screen.
“There’s nothing to argue about anymore. I’m not answerable to any of you, Elgin. If you have arguments, sort them out among yourselves. As for me, I stand by my decision. I’m not going to accept any of you as my children’s father, let alone start anything with one of you,” I said clearly, watching their eyes widen with confusion and every kind of emotion.
Then I walked away to answer Alpha Ron’s call.
At least his call saved me from watching the three Alphas throw a tantrum.
“Hello?” I answered, walking into the room so that if the Alphas kept arguing in the living room, Alpha Ron wouldn’t hear them.
“Our powerhouse, Ms. Madeline! I wanted to call and congratulate you right away, but I was in a meeting. I’m pleased to tell you that everyone is very happy with the way you helped the children,” he said cheerfully from the other side.
“Thank you so much, but it was nothing. I came here for that job, and that’s all I’m doing,” I replied.
“Still, my grandma and I were talking about you today,” Ron began. “She’s really excited to see you again and celebrate this little victory.”
As soon as he mentioned a celebration, I remembered what had happened last time, and my mood darkened.
“She doesn’t have to. It’s honestly okay,” I replied, trying to come up with an excuse so I wouldn’t have to go and sit through another awkward silence.
But it didn’t seem like it would be that easy since I was already in his pack and I needed to act professional and also stay in contact with him.
“Oh, please. How about just drinks then, huh? I hope you can spare some time for my grandmother. She’s strangely fascinated by you,” Ron continued, making me glance around uneasily.
It felt like I had no choice but to go and meet her.
“Okay then, how about tomorrow night?” I asked.
He clicked his tongue as a ‘no‘.
“Why not tonight? The night is still young, and I’m sure the kids are asleep by now. You can’t bring them around the alcohol anyway, can you?” he asked, making me roll my eyes in frustration.
“Yeah, I can do that. I’ll leave the warriors at the door and come by, but I’ll only stay for a few minutes since I have to get back to them,” I told him.
The mansion was only a ten–minute drive away, anyway.
“Sure, just a drink is all I’m asking for,” Ron continued, and with that, it was decided.

We had plenty of Graham’s, Elgin’s, and Baxter’s warriors stationed inside and outside the hotel room, so I knew my babies were safe.
Still, I always felt more at ease when I was with them. But I knew that wasn’t always possible, especially when I had to go out without them for work.
I stepped out of the room and noticed the three raging alphas sitting on separate sofas, refusing to even look at each other.
They all looked furious and upset.
“Okay, so can we talk about it now?” Elgin asked, standing up as soon as he saw me. I raised a hand to stop him.
“No, Elgin. Alpha Ron asked me to celebrate the victory with a drink. I’m not about to start another argument with you three,” I told him, walking away as I grabbed my purse.
However, I soon noticed all three of them following me. I stopped at the door and turned to face them.
“Where do you all think you’re going?” I questioned, folding my arms across my chest.
“Well, I’m going to be part of the celebration. I was there with you, and I helped with the mission too,” Graham said, crossing his arms to mirror me.
“Okay, fine. What about you two?” I asked Elgin and Baxter about why they were following me?
“Well, I stayed home taking care of the babies. I was part of the mission too,” Baxter replied, making me roll my
eyes.
“Wait a minute, that’s not fair! I see what you two are doing,” Elgin snapped, shaking his head in disagreement.
“What? It’s only fair if we go and you don’t. You weren’t even here to begin with,” Graham teased, making Elgin shake his head again and wag a finger at him.
“You all can come, but I swear, if any of you start another argument, I’m leaving,” I warned, walking out of the hotel suite with them trailing behind me.
It was strange how all three suddenly wanted my attention, wanted to talk about something that they themselves had made impossible to discuss before.
As we walked toward the car and then to the elevator, all four of us squeezed inside. I quickly noticed how they were all facing me, hands tucked in their pockets, their eyes fixed on me.
