Graham:\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy did you call me home?\u201d I asked my father, irritated.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He had not only told me that he was going to marry Penny but also that Madeline knew and kept it from me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Still, it wasn\u2019t enough for me to hate her, no matter what he believed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I knew he disapproved of our friendship, and that was why he said those things.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI know what you\u2019ve been doing lately,\u201d my father remarked with a grin.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Penny stood beside him, as always, pretending she wasn\u2019t paying attention.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If she was so important, why had she stayed with a married man for so long?\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI wanted to show you something,\u201d my father said, scrolling through his phone.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWas it that important that you had to call me this early in the morning?\u201d I hissed, shaking my head in disbelief.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I had left the most comfortable place I\u2019d ever slept, Madeline\u2019s arms, just to come here and deal with him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It was frustrating.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I wanted to stay there and start something new with her when she woke up.\u00a0<\/p>\n
We had made a deal, the three of us. And with that deal, I was planning to tell them that I wanted her, that I wanted her for myself.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I didn\u2019t care if she had lost her virginity to someone else; it didn\u2019t matter to me. I wanted her to be with me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Then we would be exclusive. There would be no one else. That was the plan.\u00a0<\/p>\n
My father ruined it when he started blowing up my phone and sending me things. clips, pictures, videos.\u00a0<\/p>\n
There were images of Madeline in one of his offices. I didn\u2019t understand what they meant. Then there was a short clip of her sneaking out of his office.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I knew right away my father was up to something. So I had to leave.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But I planned to go back, fix everything, and apologize for leaving like that by telling her I wanted to be exclusive, that I had always had feelings for her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cLook at this,\u201d my father said, snapping me out of my thoughts,\u00a0<\/p>\n
The world had become such a toxic place. The only peace I found was with Madeline.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But my father always knew how to ruin things for me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The moment he played the video, my heart began pounding in my temples.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat is this?\u201d I asked, trying to grab the phone. My father pulled his hand back, laughing,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThere are copies of it, so don\u2019t even think about deleting it from my phone. It\u2019ll never be gone forever,\u201d he said. \u201c Do you know your little Omega friend went into an Alpha\u2019s office and tried to steal some files,\u201d My father\u2019s words sent chills through me.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m afraid the council might think she was stealing the files for the enemy,\u201d Penny uttered. \u201cThat poor girl will face so much now. My heart aches for her.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Penny spoke up for the first time, making me clench my jaw and glare at her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNobody will talk about this video. I\u2019m sure she had a reason for doing this,\u201d I said, defending her, angry that my father had sent me the video and spoken about it so harshly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
They didn\u2019t know, maybe she was searching for something. It\u2019s not like Madeline had ever done anything like that.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She must have had a good reason.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I tried to stand up for her, but I noticed my father shaking his head.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, too late for that. You shouldn\u2019t have kept hanging around her. If you had stopped, I might have even discarded the video,\u201d my father muttered, pouting as if it were my fault.\u00a0<\/p>\n
His words still managed to shake me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat are you suggesting?\u201d I asked, my face tightening.\u00a0<\/p>\n
My father met my eyes, nodding slowly as if gathering his thoughts before murmuring, \u201cStay away from her.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The next few minutes were chaotic. My father told me everything was ready against Madeline, that if I didn\u2019t stay away from her, he would not only have her arrested but also pay the council to give her the harshest punishment. 1\u00a0<\/p>\n
I hadn\u2019t even been declared an Alpha yet, and I was terrified for her. That day was the worst of my life.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I went through every emotion, even missing my mother, because if she had been alive, she would never have let my father take my happiness away.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But she wasn\u2019t there. No one was. I was completely alone.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Warriors stood outside the mansion and outside my room, making sure I couldn\u2019t leave, even if I wanted to.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Even if I decided I wouldn\u2019t stay away from her, I still couldn\u2019t escape.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Then the documents were brought to me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat is this?\u201d I asked my father, glaring at him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSign these papers if you don\u2019t want her to go to jail,\u201d my father said, throwing them onto my lap.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I grabbed the papers immediately and began to read them. I had to stay away from her for five years.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I had to marry the woman my father chose and live with her for five years and give him an heir, or at least try to.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But if after five years I couldn\u2019t give him one, I\u2019d be free to leave her and find another woman to give my father a grandson.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I was kept locked in the room, and my father took my phone. The first glass of water I had drunk when I entered had been drugged.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I slept most of the day and woke again to the same threats. I was scared for Madeline.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Then I remembered my best friends. Even though it hurt me to do this, I had to step back and let them protect her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I knew one of them would, at least Baxter would.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Or maybe she would move on, find happiness elsewhere, and live a normal life instead of suffering with me, because my father was so vindictive and hated her with everything he had.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I tried to reach out to Kaylee to request her to not marry me, but nothing worked in my favor.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the end, I sat across from my father, pen in hand, and signed away my freedom, my happiness, for Madeline\u2019s\u00a0<\/p>\n
