Madeline:\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cCome on, kids. I will speak to you, okay?\u201d I told them, and they nodded again, still quiet and confused.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I guided them toward the stairway, wanting to take them straight to the car before anything else happened.\u00a0<\/p>\n
However, I had come with Lord Eldon, so my driver was taking some time before he arrived.\u00a0<\/p>\n
At the same time, I heard someone call out for me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMadeline, wait.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
I stopped in my tracks. My spine stiffened as I held my children\u2019s clothes.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I pulled my children closer and turned around to give Graham a brief glance.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He stepped beside me with a concerned look on his face.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cCan I talk to you for a moment?\u201d he asked, trying to sound calm.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are going home, Graham,\u201d I replied, not stopping as I held my children and continued to move away from the front of the building.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMadeline, please,\u201d he insisted, stepping around to face me. \u201cI want to explain.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
I lifted my palm to stop him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe will talk later. Don\u2019t you see my children need to be at home and have a conversation with their mother first? \u201cI almost snapped, but I steadied my voice.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I did not want to scare my children.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He looked at them and then nodded slowly, finally understanding that I needed time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAll right. I will come by later, if that is okay,\u201d when he said that, I did not respond. I focused on walking past him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I had already texted my driver while I was in the meeting, when Eldon fuined everything, because I realized I would not be going home with him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Luckily, the car pulled up at the right time. I focused on getting my children into the car.\u00a0<\/p>\n
My hands shook slightly, but I stayed calm enough to help them climb inside.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Only after closing the door behind them did I breathe out.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Graham still stood in the same spot watching us, waiting for something from me, but I had nothing to tell him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I had nothing to give him. I was still shaken from everything that had happened.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It felt like these alphas decided to hurt me whenever they could.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The car ride was quiet for a moment until Bodhi shifted in his seat.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMommy, why are you marrying Uncle Graham now?\u201d he asked softly, and I could hear the complaint in his voice.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIs Uncle Elgin not our daddy?\u201d Gina leaned forward, asking me in confusion.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Elara hugged her knees and glanced at me from the corner of her eye.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She did not say anything, but she waited for my reply.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe will talk about it when we get home,\u201d I reminded them, keeping my voice steady. \u201cI will explain everything, I promise.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
They stared at me in confusion, but none of them spoke again until we pulled into the driveway.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Once we arrived, I guided the kids inside. I helped them take fast showers and change into fresh clothes.\u00a0<\/p>\n
They still looked at me with the same nervous expression, and I tried to focus on getting them fed first.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I warmed up some food and placed the plates on the living room table.\u00a0<\/p>\n
They settled on the carpet and started eating quietly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Gina looked up at me again, her eyes still confused.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMommy, why are you marrying Uncle Graham now?\u201d she asked, pouting. \u201cI thought Uncle Elgin was our daddy,\u201d she whispered.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I could tell that every time she mentioned Elgin, there was a small hesitation in her voice.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo. Elgin was not your father,\u201d I explained gently, lying to them. \u201cHe was going to be a stepfather. That is why you were calling him daddy.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Their faces shifted with confusion and surprise.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThen who is our real daddy?\u201d Bodhi wondered, blinking at me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou know your real father is Sawyer,\u201d I lied again. \u201cBut he is busy in the human world, and remember, he cannot come here all the time. That is why I need an alpha husband here.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
It felt strange explaining this to children.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSo now you are marrying Uncle Graham, so he will be our daddy?\u201d Bodhi asked, and his question hurt me more than I wanted to show.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cListen, I have a wolf,\u201d I told them quietly. \u201cAnd not everyone knows how my wolf is. The council thinks my wolf is a bad one, so they want someone strong here to protect you from me when I transition.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
They exchanged looks and shook their heads.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I expected fear, and it would have been understandable, but I only wanted them to stay aware of what others were saying so they would not hear it from someone else and be misled.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe know your wolf would be a good wolf,\u201d Bodhi said with such confidence that it made me smile. I pulled them all into a hug.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOf course. Now I am certain my wolf will be a good wolf,\u201d I remarked.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That was when a knock sounded on the door.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou kids keep eating,\u201d I told them while getting up to answer it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The minute I opened the door, my body stiffened.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It was Graham.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After everything that happened, after Elgin\u2019s outburst, I noticed my children freezing around these men.\u00a0<\/p>\n
2\/3\u00a0<\/p>\n
Their faces showed shock and concern.\u00a0<\/p>\n
