Accidentally Pregnant By My Alpha Best friends (Madeline) novel Chapter 644

Elgin:

Still, having both of them on my side would make me the most powerful alpha among them, which was exactly why I needed Silver loyal to me.

Besides, I had daughters with her.

Of course, I was not going to treat her cruelly or dismiss her completely.

“That’s because I believe that since two male council members died, they should be replaced by two men,” Lady Abigail finally answered.

Honestly, neither my mother nor I had expected that response.

And it was bad.

“What kind of misogynistic bullshit is that?” I snapped, immediately siding with my mother.

Lord John, on the other hand, said nothing.

He simply remained silent, and honestly, I could not blame him.

In his eyes, I had hurt his daughter.

Especially after Silver told him I was going to marry Rosetta.

Of course, he was no longer very fond of me.

“Well, you’re a man yourself. You would know. Haven’t you used your title and power for your own benefit before?” Lady Abigail remarked, folding her arms across her chest.

At that moment, I realized that since she was the only council leader left, she now held enough power to change everything.

And no matter what happened, she did not want my mother involved.

Honestly, that was going to become a serious problem.

I clenched my jaw as I stared at her.

Then my attention shifted to Lord John, whose smirk was impossible to miss.

He looked like he was moments away from laughing in my face.

Still, he kept a serious expression, pretending to care about doing better for the werewolf community.

“Anyway, we have far more important matters to deal with,” Lady Abigail remarked, wiping the sweat from her forehead.

“And what would that be?” I asked sharply.

I was willing to do whatever it took, even if I had to convince everyone around her to support my mother as the new council leader.

There were two empty seats, after all.

Once Lord John signed the agreement and officially became a council leader, I would convince Silver to listen to me and secure the second spot for my mother.

“It seems, Alpha Elgin, that you haven’t been keeping up with the news,” Lady Abigail commented as she leaned forward, grabbed the remote, and turned on the television.

For a moment, I thought Graham had finally been caught.

Then I saw the most horrifying thing imaginable.

Even her father looked furious because they had already made me sign papers severing my ties with Elara.

“I’ll catch Madeline and take my daughter away from her,” I finished.

That was when I realized it fully.

Madeline was a monster in everyone’s eyes now.

And sadly, she had become someone I could no longer claim.

Otherwise, I would suffer the same fate as Graham, Ron, and Byron, who were now wandering the wild without their crowns.

“Good. I expected something more intelligent from you. Empty compliments about my skills do nothing for me.”

All eyes were on me.

People looked stunned that I had finally decided to make a move against Madeline.

It was unfortunate, but she had brought it upon herself.

If she had listened to me from the beginning, if she had stopped causing problems and stayed away from everyone else, hidden in my room with me, I would have given her so much love that she never would have needed to step outside the mansion.

But now she had exactly what she wanted.

Everyone’s attention was on her.

So I supposed it was time to save myself instead of mourning the love she had already destroyed.
