Madeline:
Coming home and facing Lady Eugenia was already difficult enough for me.
The way she looked at me made it seem like she had already seen all the news.
Her stare felt strange and unsettling, and I kept expecting her to call me a monster at any second.
I was terrified she would say she had already informed people about where I was hiding.
This place was not safe for me anymore anyway.
I already knew we would have to leave soon.
After staring at me for a while, Lady Eugenia suddenly looked behind me and let out a growl.
That was when I realized the news probably had not spread yet, or maybe she still had not heard about me being the Grey Wolf.
“We couldn’t find him,” Byron spoke up.
“But we need to leave,” he added.
“What happened to you? Where were you?”
Thankfully, Lord Jonah did not react the way Lady Eugenia had.
His eyes were filled with concern, exactly as they should have been.
That was also when I noticed how exhausted he looked.
“They captured me and took my blood,” I whispered.
The moment those words left my mouth, I buried my face in my hands and broke down crying.
I did not understand what was happening to me.
My body felt overwhelmed with emotions now that the numbness was fading away.
Every part of me ached.
My body was weak, but my soul felt even more exhausted.
“What did they do to you?” Lord Jonah asked softly as he pulled me into a fatherly embrace.
And honestly, his embrace worked.
For the first time in a long while, I did not feel like a mother, a daughter-in-law, a mate, or even a friend.
I just felt like someone’s daughter.
A fragile woman who was finally allowing herself to fall apart.
Lord Jonah held me close and gently patted my back before pulling away to wipe my tears with his thumb.
“We’ll get you out of here,” he assured me. “We’ll speak to the council leaders.”
But before he could continue, Ron stepped in.
“That’s not going to work.”
The moment Ron said that, I looked toward him.
Before I could say anything, my children ran into my arms.
I immediately knelt down and wrapped them tightly against me.
“I will,” Byron said quickly. “You guys pack your things and get on the road. The hotel manager is going to call the authorities soon, if he hasn’t already.”
Panic rose inside me, and I shot Byron another look, silently telling him to hurry after Ron.
Then I turned back toward my family, praying they would not waste time asking more questions.
Thankfully, they did not.
I did not have to stand there explaining myself any longer.
Everyone immediately started packing our things.
For once, even Lady Eugenia hurried without complaint, probably because she had finally realized that if people were willing to attack Alphas, they certainly would not spare either of us.
Lord Jonah was extremely helpful.
Once our bags were packed, we rushed out of the motel rooms.
But the moment we reached the SUV Ron had left behind, I noticed the warriors looked tense.
They kept staring down at their phones before looking back up at me.
That was when I realized they were the last people I should approach right now.
“Byron’s car,” I whispered, gesturing toward the other vehicle parked nearby.
Of course, everyone stared at me in confusion because they did not understand why I was avoiding Ron’s SUV and pointing toward Byron’s car instead.
But we were all panicking, so no one argued when we suddenly changed direction.
The moment we started running toward Byron’s car, I noticed Ron’s warriors suddenly rushing toward the SUV to grab their weapons.
