Graham:\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cCongratulations on winning the pack,\u201d Lady Abigail said to me, shaking my hand and smiling ear to ear.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The blood rain pack had always been my dream. I had always thought Baxter was lucky to have such a perfect pack. Now, it felt like the pack had been meant for me all along.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThank you so much,\u201d I replied, then watched as she and the other council members and leaders left.\u00a0<\/p>\n
My father stood beside me, happily accepting bows from everyone.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cCongratulations, man. I didn\u2019t know you knew so much about the blood rain pack,\u201d Elgin remarked as he approached me. There was bitterness in his tone.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It felt strange yet comforting to sit in the same hallway where all the candidates had been seated.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Usually, physical fights decided who would become the alpha of a pack, unless the previous alpha handed over the crown. My case had been different.\u00a0<\/p>\n
My father\u2019s influence had earned me enough votes that a physical fight was deemed unnecessary. The leaders decided I was the best option.\u00a0<\/p>\n
There were also the files and the confirmation letters from Lady Eugenia stating she did not mind me intervening in pack matters. That only reinforced the fact that even the previous alphas supported me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd I also heard you\u2019re having triplets. Congratulations,\u201d Elgin added, hugging me again and patting my back.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I could tell he felt defeated. He looked pale today, unable to answer questions, clearly unprepared.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, I kept winning one argument after another, explaining the plans I had made for the improvement of the pack and pointing out the issues that had been affecting it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnyway, after you\u2019ve celebrated all the good news coming at you from every direction, I hope you have enough time to discuss how we\u2019re going to get the researcher to come and help us this time.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
It felt like Elgin had to ruin the moment for me. The minute he mentioned the new sickness, my smile began to falter.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou have the biggest pack under your rule now, almost the size of three packs,\u201d he continued. \u201cAnd then you still have your own. I really hope you come up with a solid plan because the sickness is getting worse by the second.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
I was about to remind him that I had hoped to take a few days to enjoy time with my family when he added, \u201cI\u2019m only saying this because my daughters are being affected. Otherwise, I would\u2019ve let you enjoy this first.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
That explanation helped.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSo what exactly is going on with the sickness?\u201d I asked.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I didn\u2019t have children of my own, and I had been so busy with Kaylee that I\u2019d shut out all the news.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I had even told my warriors and my royal beta not to talk to me about anything unless it was related to my child.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThe kids are being hit with multiple illnesses,\u201d Elgin explained. \u201cOne is that they suddenly drop to the ground and fall into a deep sleep. The second is-\u201d He paused, stepping closer and shoving his hands into his pants pockets. \u201cThe kids are lying. They\u2019re lying to cause trouble.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

+25 Bonus\u00a0<\/p>\n
That sent a chill down my spine.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd that\u2019s not normal,\u201d he went on. \u201cIf you can\u2019t trust a child\u2019s words, how do you know when they\u2019re telling the truth? How do you know if someone is stealing from them, or if it\u2019s another lie?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He stepped back after saying that, leaving me unsettled.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt seems like we\u2019ll have to speak with Madeline again,\u201d Elgin said. There was a bored look on his face when he mentioned her name.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Of course, she had left us scarred. We had done so much for her, and in the end, she proved she didn\u2019t really need\u00a0<\/p>\n
She wanted anyone, anyone to save her and warm her bed. That was all.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOh, not that slut,\u201d my father muttered.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The comment annoyed me, but I held it in. It wasn\u2019t like he was completely wrong.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, then I guess we should all go together and talk to her,\u201d I decided.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I knew she would be difficult to persuade after what happened at her wedding. She would do everything she could to give us a hard time now. 1\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBut when? When should we do it? I can\u2019t watch my children suffer,\u201d Elgin insisted. 1\u00a0<\/p>\n
My father nodded in agreement.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI think you two should go as soon as possible. Maybe today?\u201d he suggested. \u201cI already know where they are. It\u2019s a cabin in the mountains. Get ready and leave. However, I suggest you take your wives with you. You never know when that woman might try to seduce you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
My father was right. I knew the moment Madeline saw us, she would feel something. 2\u00a0<\/p>\n
She would probably want us to feel the same. Her husband was no longer an alpha, and I was doing well. 1\u00a0<\/p>\n
She might even grow jealous when she found out my mate was pregnant. I was sure Madeline wouldn\u2019t be able to hide her feelings for me. 3\u00a0<\/p>\n
But I wasn\u2019t in love with her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That settled it. Elgin and I were visiting Madeline that day.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWelcome Back into my arms, my love,\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
his voice thundered and so did my heart. I raised my eyes and saw Sawyer stand before me, a mixture of pain and anger in his eyes while his lips carried a very fake smile.\u00a0<\/p>\n
