“She’s not your daughter,” I replied. “You lost all your authority over her when you broke her heart p>

As I spoke, I remembered the days when they brutally rejected those children, after constantly telling them they were their parents.
They were selfish and never thought about how a child would cope with knowing their father did not want them
anymore.
“It doesn’t matter what you say,” Graham argued. “I was going through a lot too at that time. Why are you acting like I am at fault? Didn’t you tell me that you used me to get over Baxter p>
I knew he would throw that in my face.
“That’s the thing about you and Elgin,” I remarked. “You both try to do everything to sat you’re holding on to something that wasn’t even in your mind when you hurt your daug words had any impact on your decisions. I still don’t believe you’re affected by what happened to her p>
My lips quivered as I spoke. Every time I talked about her, I wondered how much she must have cried when the monster took her. I wondered if he kept her alive for as long as he did Baxter. I wondered if she died on impact, or if she suffered.
Graham would never understand what I had been through.
“Anyways, I’m not here to listen to you taunting me,” Graham told me.
I smiled at him, but it came out as a cocky grin.
“So what are you here for?” I challenged. “Are you planning something else? Who are you going to hurt this time?” 1
I took deep, heavy breaths, holding his gaze without looking away.
“I was brought here by my father, ” Graham explained. “He informed me that Ron has been helping a rogue who turned down the crown for a woman. Do you know that’s a crime? He’ll face a heavy penalty. He will have to pay a heavy price to keep Baxter in the hospital and give him treatment p>
That was when it became clear. It was not just information he was giving me. He was threatening me.
“And my husband can pay p>
Finally, Yuvonne rose, speaking on my behalf and on her husband’s.
“No, of course I know he can,” he replied. “But I wonder when. For now, he’s in serious trouble himself.” Graham grunted and stepped back.
“So I suggest you two ladies use your brains and keep your tongues under control when talking to me p>
That was a clear threat as he walked away.
I turned to Yuvonne, and we shared a heavy look. It was true. Ron was in serious trouble.
What I did not understand was why there was poison in his jacket, and why he would take it out in the hospital if he was guilty.
I knew he was not the culprit, but these were things I kept note of, details I held onto, so they could be used when Ron needed someone to defend him. (2

Yuvonne:
From childhood until today, my mother always told me the same thing, that I was lucky, that I was born with good luck.
Somewhere along the way, I started believing it too. That is why when I did not get something, I wanted to take it by force.
It was much later that I realized none of that was true. You have to create your own luck.
You have to fight for yourself. Even then, I started going in the wrong direction.
I fought the wrong people. Instead of making my life better. I started taking things from
By the time I understood it, time had already passed.
Still, I had made a promise that I would not make any more mistakes.
And it felt as if the Moon Goddess liked my change, because she sent a very good man into
I never thought Ron would start liking me, and that I would fall in love with him too.
What it truly means to love someone with everything you have, I learned that from Ron.
Ever since I fell in love with him, my way of looking at love completely changed.
my
life.
I only wanted to do everything for Ron’s happiness. It was as if I no longer had any wishes of my own.
Being happy in his happiness was enough for me.
But then my husband was struck by such a great loss that I was in pain just thinking about how troubled he must be.
I knew what his grandmother meant to him. So when I found out that his grandmother had passed away, my heart was in my throat.
I wanted to comfort him, but I never even got the chance. They arrested him and took him away.
It was as if someone had played a very big game, but for now, nothing could be proven.
“You should go back. Madeline, your children will be upset when they wake up and don’t find you,” I told Madeline, holding her hand and giving it a gentle squeeze.
On our way here, we had woken Baxter’s father and told him to stay with the children.
Still, if the children woke up and did not see their mother, I knew they would be very distressed. When Madeline had gone home earlier, they had already been asleep.
“But what about you?” Madeline asked, giving me a very concerned look.
“I’ll handle things here,” I replied. “I’ll speak to the Royal Beta and the Royal Gamma. Ron has to be released p>
I told Madeline this with a very faint smile. I was trying hard not to hurt her. She was already going through so much, and now we were all struggling as well.
“All right then. Contact me, okay?” Madeline said. “Call the motel manager if you need anything p>
After saying this, Madeline said goodbye and left.
Now I was alone in the hospital.

I still had to collect Ron’s grandmother’s body, but even the thought of it frightened me. I did not want to give her a funeral yet.
I had heard that Lord Eldon had requested that she be laid to rest quickly, since she was already a known figure in her time and should not be kept waiting. 2
But I was trying to delay the process as much as possible. I did not want them to bury Ron’s grandmother without Ron being there. It was Ron’s right to be with his grandmother in her final moments.
I was waiting for the Royal Beta to arrive when I received a call from my mother.
“Hello,” I answered the call, glancing around.
Seeing Graham, Elgin, and Eldon nearby made my anxiety rise. I knew they did not get alon
In fact, they did not get along with anyone anymore. Wherever they saw an alpha falling, ti immediately.
“I just received some news,” my mother said on the phone
“Yes,” I replied. “I’m in a lot of pain right now. Can you come p>
I asked anxiously, looking around.
“Of course, I’m coming p>
There was something strange in my mother’s voice, as if she was hiding
a secret.

“What happened? You’re not saying anything,” I asked her. At that moment, I really needed someone to talk to me, even for a little while.
“Yuvonne, I am proud of you p>
The moment she said that, I got goosebumps.
“For what?” I asked in a very low voice.
“You already know,” she replied. “You did exactly what I told you to do p>
Her words passed through my heart and reached my mind, and a sharp pain started in my temples.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” I tried to deny it, because I did not want her to say those words.
“That’s exactly what I’m talking about,” she continued. “I told you, didn’t I? To get rid of Ron’s grandmother. I am proud of you. I don’t know how you did it, but good job. 1
As soon as she said that, my hands started shaking.
