Madeline:\u00a0<\/p>\n
I had noticed that Yuvonne was not very clingy. The way she talked and reacted around Baxter was casual, as if she were more related to me than to him. For now, I had no trouble with her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat is it?\u201d I asked Ron, noticing how intently he had been looking at her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cShe has not accepted my apology,\u201d he told me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As soon as he said that, I furrowed my eyebrows before realizing what he meant.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOh, she must be angry that you sent the warriors who were not able to protect her,\u201d I asked him, watching his face for a reaction while he kept staring away.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYeah, pretty much that. I tried to speak with her, but Yuvonne is going through a lot. Maybe I should speak with her later,\u201d he suggested, looking at me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou can try,\u201d I replied.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I noticed the way he took a deep breath before heading toward the cabin.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I began to walk toward the front porch, following Ron. However, my destination was Baxter instead of him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As soon as I reached Baxter, I sat beside him, watching him interact with the children.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It seemed like he was enjoying their company. They were keeping him entertained, along with their small hands massaging his temples and his hands.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I guessed he was comfortable. It felt like he had not lost everything. He still had his children, who cared for him and respected him more than anything in the world.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHello, Yuvonne,\u201d Ron greeted.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I could tell Yuvonne had seen him, but she acted as if she had not.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHello,\u201d she replied dryly, holding a cup of coffee for Baxter.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThis will warm him up,\u201d she remarked, handing it to me when Baxter did not accept it from her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Then I realized why. He was afraid I would feel a certain way. Of course, they had a long past together.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Also, my sister had been very messy in the past, so I had every right to be doubtful.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That was what Baxter had told me, and I believed him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If he said it was fine for me to be skeptical, it made me feel better. At least he was not judging me outright.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHow are you?\u201d Ron asked her, keeping his tone soft and gentle,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAlive, thanks to the good people here. Otherwise, your warriors did quite a job trying to get rid of me,\u201d she responded bitterly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
At that moment, I realized what Ron had been talking about. She was harsh with him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI told you, I sent my best toward you. They were fooled. Those men must have had a lot of information. That is why they were able to come prepared,\u201d as Ron spoke, I noticed Yuvonne\u2019s body twitch slightly.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI do not think you should talk about that incident,\u201d I whispered to him, gesturing toward her body language. She hugged herself and discreetly began scratching her arms. It gave me goosebumps.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cShould we go inside? It is getting cold here,\u201d Yuvonne suddenly suggested.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It was her way of telling us she did not want to speak with Ron anymore.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I understood she was angry and holding him responsible because she could not personally punish those men.\u00a0<\/p>\n
They were already dead. Still, her anger toward him felt excessive.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Then again, it was her trauma. No one could tell her how she should react or whom she should react to, especially those directly or indirectly involved.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI will take Baxter inside,\u201d I mumbled, signaling Ron to speak with Yuvonne alone.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Maybe she would respond better if they talked privately. I had seen her behave a certain way before, and Baxter had told me that ever since this happened to her, her mother had guided her reactions.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Even now, she reacted the way her mother had taught her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As we stepped inside, Ron took a few quick steps toward Yuvonne.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cCan we please talk?\u201d he asked her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I tilted my head, watching them. She did not walk away, which was a good start. At least she was letting him speak. We went inside, and his mother immediately rushed toward him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat did they do to you? Did they dethrone you?\u201d she cried, not once asking if Baxter was fine. She began to sob loudly. \u201cNow we will never have our pack back. Oh my goodness. It was my father\u2019s pack, Baxter. You do not understand. It was his legacy. It was given to you so you would take care of it, and you let it go for some\u2014\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She cut herself off when her eyes landed on me. I noticed the bitterness in them. If she could, she would have killed me right then.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I did not say anything. I simply started guiding Baxter toward the room. She suddenly stepped forward and blocked our path.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cCan you please just let him rest for now?\u201d I spoke up because she was not letting him walk toward the room. \u201cOf course, now all he will do is rest, because he no longer has the strength of an alpha to do anything,\u201d she snapped. 1\u00a0<\/p>\n
