“There is no moon goddess who would intervene,” he said, his voice unsteady as he scratched the back of his neck. “This is just nature, you idiot.”
Still, I saw him swallow hard.
“Besides, the moon goddess knows my actions are genuine,” he added, though his words did not match what he had said earlier. “Ah, forget it. I do not care. I do not need to explain anything to you. Fuck you and fuck the moon goddess if she tries to stand beside you. I do not need her. I do not need anyone. I am an Alpha. I can fight anything and anyone. I do not need the moon goddess on my side.” 2
He let out a harsh breath.
“It is pathetic people like you who still believe the moon goddess listens, sits in the clouds, and hears people. Pathetic.”
He finished with a mocking grunt, making fun of me for believing the moon goddess existed and that her wrath was real.
I could not even respond. The weather grew worse. The storm picked up, and the rain fell so hard it sounded like something had woken up in the night.
“I am done looking at your pathetic face and trying to give you a chance. And this daughter, you were going to use her to lure me out and take advantage of me?” he screamed, pointing at Elara. “If you cannot take care of her, then let her die like that little piece of shit died.”
I turned my daughter around and held her close as she began to scream and cry.
“And do not ever think I will bow down to you again. Now go and run around and beg people for help, because you do not deserve it from me. You are just a selfish woman who does not want to give anything to anyone and only wants to take and take,” he shouted.
A thunderbolt lit up the sky in red. Even Elgin’s body shook as he looked up. When he looked back at me, I saw a hint of fear on his face.
“I promise you, Elgin. One day, you will be reduced to nothing. Everything you have here, everything you are proud of, will be taken away from you and Graham. I promise you, Elgin, and tell your friend too, this was the last time you made me feel this pathetic. After this, your downfall starts, and I will watch it happen. I will make it happen,” I said. 2
As I finished, I saw panic spread across his face. He swallowed, realizing that the anger of a mother was more than he expected.
“You can do nothing,” he whispered.
Then, like a coward, he turned around, got into the car, and sped away.
Once he left, tears ran down my face.
“Do not worry. I will go to the nearest pack and get you help, okay?” I said to Elara, holding her tightly.

I did not have time. Elara’s body had started to shake so badly that I blamed myself for wasting time asking that man for help. So I ran.
I ran as fast as I could. Sadly, my wolf was not responding either. I thought this was the lowest point I had ever reached.
People say that once you hit your lowest point, you cannot go further down. You can only go up.
After thirty minutes of running at full speed, I finally reached a pack.
“Hey, you cannot just barge in!” a warrior called, stepping forward to block me at a metal gate.
“Please speak to your Alpha. Tell him I need help,” I said, shaking badly.
“Why would you think our Alpha would help you? Leave. We do not help rogues,” the man replied, holding an umbrella over his head.
“Please just speak with him. Maybe he will feel bad. Please, please, please,” I begged the warrior.
He rolled his eyes and went back into his room, dialing a number. He came back out with the phone to his ear, probably trying to make me listen while the Alpha decided that no rogue would get help there.
“Yeah, she is holding a baby and she is crying,” the warrior said with a chuckle, clearly laughing at me. 1
I realized I was not going to have any luck here either.
“It is okay. You do not need to bother your Alpha. I will leave,” I said, turning around.
My body was shaking from the cold, and I could only imagine how my daughter felt.
As I started to walk away, the large metal gate suddenly opened with a loud thud and someone stepped out.
“Madeline?”
The voice stopped me in my tracks, and I turned around to see Sean standing in front of me.
I never expected that the Alpha everyone had banned, who had helped me last time, would be leading the pack I had stumbled upon when I needed help the most.
“What are you looking at? Go help her! Hold the umbrella over her head, you idiot!” Royal Beta Sean of Alpha Byron yelled at the warrior.
The warrior’s face changed color as he realized that the person he had been mocking was someone his Alpha knew. 1
