Chapter 331
331–Can’t See My Mate So Broken
Madeline:
“You two should be ashamed of yourselves. Is this how you’re going to stoop so low now? ” Ron shouted as he arrived, directing his anger at Baxter and Elgin,
One of his warriors had let us inside the cabin. Ron carried Yuvonne in himself and sat her down on the couch.
Baxter, however, had not lifted his eyes, and it was difficult to watch.
“Baxter, you need to drink something to keep your body warm,” I told him as I approached, holding a cup of coffee.
“I’m fine. I’m not that weak,” he replied.
As soon as he said that, I bit my bottom lip. He was taking everything onto himself.
“Baxter, you have injuries. Let me at least give you first aid,” I requested.
He lifted his hand and shook it at me, dismissing the idea. He sat on the couch with his head lowered, his fingers curled against the edge.
“Lord William wants you two to go back home. In the next few days, you will be summoned to court. He does not intend to let this go easily, and neither do I,” Ron declared. With those final words, he stepped inside and slammed the door shut.
“Those assholes,” he grunted.
When he finally lifted his eyes, he took in the atmosphere inside the cabin. I was sure he could tell that Baxter was under great strain.
Yuvonne had calmed down by then, but Baxter still seemed stuck there, trapped in that moment.
“Baxter, are you okay, dude?” Ron asked, tapping his shoulder before stepping over to sit beside Yuvonne.
I noticed the way she looked at him before turning away. He awkwardly kept his fingers against his chest, almost as if inviting her to seek comfort from him.
“I failed today,” Baxter muttered.
As soon as he said that, I reached for his hand, but each time I touched him, he slowly pulled his hand away from
mine.
“Dude, anyone would break,” Ron told him. “They brought in warriors, two alphas, so many warriors, and then guns to your loved one’s head. Be reasonable, Baxter. Nobody could have handled that fairly.” 2
Baxter only shook his head.
That was when Yuvonne moved closer to Ron, and he quietly placed his arm around her back, pulling her in to hold her. 1
She had a blanket on the couch and tucked herself beneath it, resting her head against his chest.

I felt proud of her for what she had done today. I planned to talk to her later, but for now, it seemed better that she stayed with the person who was offering her comfort.
“I’ll go and rest,” Baxter stated.
I had asked him countless times to let me take care of his wounds, but I realized he needed to be alone for a
moment.
The more he looked at me, the more anxious he seemed.
Once he left for the room, I turned to Ron.
“What is going to happen now?” I asked, referring to the alphas and what they had done tonight.
“If I could, I’d fucking dethrone them,” Ron muttered.
“I cannot even begin to imagine how you are feeling, Madeline,” Ron added, giving me a look full of understanding.
“It could have been worse, if Yuvonne had not arrived,” I replied.
Yuvonne lifted her head from his chest to look at me. I could tell Ron was proud of her at that moment.
“Anyway, you two should rest as well. I’ll go check on Baxter,” I murmured as I stood up from the couch, realizing it was probably better to give Yuvonne and Ron some time alone.
At the same time, I was worried sick about Baxter.
When I stepped into the room, I realized Baxter was in the bathroom. I waited for him.
After a few minutes, he came out, and I noticed that he had not only changed into clean clothes, but it looked like he had taken care of his wounds on his own.
“You should have waited for me,” I told him, sitting on the bed and watching him.
“No need. I’m fine, ” he replied.
I watched him grab a blanket and look around for a place to sleep.
“So you’re not even going to share the bed with me now?” I asked, getting up from the bed.
Instead, he sat down, taking deep, heavy breaths. I sat down right next to him, my eyes fixed on him, my body turned toward his.
“You should have fought back,” he began.
“You listening to them because they had a gun pointed at me made me feel like I had become your weakness. I was supposed to p>
He paused, then rubbed his face with his hands.
“That is not the truth, Baxter. You need to understand the situation,” I tried to explain.
He raised his finger and wagged it at me.

“Just stop with this situation thing. The truth is that t failed today. I failed to protect you. But you shouldn’t have let them touch you. I told you not to do anything for my sale. I told you not to do anything,” he said, but he did not finish. He threw his head back.
“I feel disgusted with myself p>
That was all he said before he stood up and stepped toward the door.
“Where are you going?” I asked.
He opened the door and glanced outside.
“It seems like Ron and Yuvonne are in her room. I’ll sleep on the couch outside,” he replied.
That was all he said before leaving the room.
