Rejected and Pregnant I Fled The Pack (Evelyn and Damon) novel Chapter 234

"I want formal investigation immediately," Ethan said, his voice carrying dangerous, absolute determination. "I want to know exactly who did this."

"We'll investigate thoroughly," Robert confirmed. "But Ethan, given everything that's already occurred today—the assault, the attempted attack against you—I think we need to consider this represents genuine, escalating danger requiring immediate, comprehensive response."

I sat there, still processing everything, understanding the genuine gravity of what had just occurred. This wasn't simply jealous rivalry or resentful harassment anymore. Someone had genuinely attempted to kill me, deliberately trapping me inside a burning room with calculated, murderous intent.

"Who would actually do this," I asked quietly, genuine fear beneath my continued shock. "Deliberately trying to kill me, rather than simply continuing verbal harassment or even physical assault?"

"I don't know," Ethan said, genuine anguish evident in his voice now. "But Nadia, I promise you, we'll find out. This won't simply be dismissed as unfortunate accident or minor incident."

Callum returned partway through this conversation, his expression grim. "We found evidence of deliberate obstruction against the door—a heavy bench, apparently moved specifically to block it from outside. This was genuinely premeditated."

Fresh horror crashed through me at that confirmation, understanding exactly how calculated and deliberate this attack had genuinely been.

"I want additional security immediately," Ethan said firmly, "and I want Nadia moved somewhere considerably more secure, given everything that's just occurred."

"Agreed," Robert confirmed. "We'll arrange proper protection immediately, though Nadia—" He turned toward me directly, his expression carrying genuine, careful concern. "I understand this is genuinely frightening, but I promise you, this pack takes your safety seriously, regardless of whatever complicated politics exist around your relationship with Ethan."

I nodded, though genuine fear remained heavy in my chest, understanding I'd just survived something considerably more dangerous than any confrontation I'd previously navigated, even throughout everything with Genevieve and Damian's earlier violence.

They arranged temporary quarters within the main pack house itself, considerably more secure than the guest accommodations, and additional warriors were positioned immediately outside, understanding the genuine severity of what had just transpired.
