\u201cIs it like he is upset or what?\u201d I urged, wanting to know more.\u00a0<\/p>\n
+25 Bonus\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI do not know, Madeline. I just know that he is not okay,\u201d she added, causing me to stand up from the bench.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOkay then. We are looking for him.\u201d I turned around and gestured for my children to grab their jackets.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I could not sit there anymore. I had been too anxious. I should have never let him go alone.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I should not have listened to him, but he had also been right. I could not leave my children behind, and it had been his request that they did not see him being dethroned.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As I hurried toward the cabin to grab our coats and my purse so I could go after him, I heard a noise coming from the side, more specifically from the track. It was a cough, and from that sound alone, I knew it was Baxter.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDaddy is home,\u201d I told my children, and as all their happiness combined, mine felt even stronger.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I ran forward, almost pushing past my children to reach Baxter, until my steps slowed when I saw him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBaxter?\u201d I murmured.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ron was carrying him, Baxter\u2019s arm draped over Ron\u2019s shoulder as he tried to steady himself while walking.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBaxter, what happened to you?\u201d My voice cracked as I rushed toward him and wrapped his other arm around my shoulder.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat is it? What happened to him?\u201d I pressed Ron, who looked upset as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Once we guided him to the front porch, we sat him down on the bench. Baxter looked tired and worn down, but I could not fully explain his appearance. There was something missing.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI am fine. I just need water,\u201d Baxter insisted.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI will get Daddy water,\u201d Elara shouted, running into the cabin, while Bodhi and Gina stepped closer to Baxter and rubbed his hands.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I watched Baxter\u2019s smile slowly return as his children showed him so much care and concern. 1\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cRon, where did you find him? What happened to him?\u201d I asked again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ron\u2019s eyes shifted toward Baxter, and when I followed his gaze, I saw Baxter lift his finger slightly, signaling him not to say anything in front of the children.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I knew I cared deeply about my children and loved them, but Baxter was overly careful around them.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cPlease tell me what is going on,\u201d I urged Ron, who gestured for me to step to the side.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As the two of us moved away from the children, my eyes stayed on Baxter.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOnce they gave him the wolfsbane to dethrone him, he lost his senses for a while. I mean, it happens when a huge amount of wolfsbane is given,\u201d Ron paused, turning his head ever so slightly toward the side\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd then what happened?\u201d I asked, wanting to know more.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd then, you know, they dragged him out of the pack and left him on the side of the road in the rogue community. I arrived late at the dethroning, but I saw him being dragged out, so I carried him and brought him\u00a0<\/p>\n

+25 Bonus\u00a0<\/p>\n
here,\u201d Ron explained, and every word I heard made me crumble like a cookie.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It was unfair how they treated Baxter with so much disrespect.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIs that even allowed? He did not commit a crime. Why are they treating him this way?\u201d I asked Ron, trying to understand why they were acting as if they hated him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, usually, no. If an alpha steps down for any reason, they would not be this harsh unless he committed a crime. But in the past, I have seen alphas commit crimes and still not be treated like this,\u201d Ron replied. 1\u00a0<\/p>\n
As Ron paused again, I raised my eyebrow, letting him know he did not have to hide anything from me. I was ready to hear more.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSo, it has to do with their hatred for you, and more specifically for Baxter. They wanted you to leave the pack world and suffer because, let us be honest, someone\u2019s daughter, someone\u2019s daughter\u2013in\u2013law, someone\u2019s wife, someone\u2019s father, they all hated you. When they could not see you at your lowest because an alpha took a stand for you, they decided to punish the alpha for taking your side,\u201d he remarked.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As he finished, I covered my face with my hands and rubbed it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is okay. We will be fine. You know what? Screw them. These packs have weird rules. We will be fine. He will be fine,\u201d I told him, taking deep, short breaths. 1\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOh, by the way, he told me on a call yesterday that you wanted to know what progress was made in finding your parents. Honestly, you should not be surprised that they wiped all the records clean. They want you to be unable to prove anything,\u201d Ron explained.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, then that means they are afraid that whatever they said might be a lie,\u201d I replied.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He shrugged his shoulders. However, his eyes moved quickly toward the cabin, and I noticed why. Yuvonne had come out to check on Baxter.\u00a0<\/p>\n
