Chapter 445
445 –Lost His Mind Over A Woman
Graham:
“I don’t understand. Why would you do that? Why would you call the fucking media after you were the one who-” I trailed off. “Oh Goddess, Elgin, you’re such an idiot p>
I could not even finish one sentence criticizing him before jumping to the next. The things he told me, the things he did to her, kept running through my mind. I was so annoyed.
What upset me the most was that Elara was sick, and Elgin decided to kick her out just because her mother did not want to sleep with him at that moment. It kept replaying in my head.
“It just happened, dude,” he muttered, taking another shot of wine in front of me.
“No, it shouldn’t have happened,” I snapped, watching him sit there so comfortably while I was losing my mind. It made me believe he deserved whatever was coming to him. “Your daughter was sick. How the fuck did you even think about anything else in that moment? And how did you expect Madeline to react when you were asking her to be your side chick while her daughter was in the backseat dying p>
I grunted and paced around his room, wanting to slap the wine out of his hand so he would pay full attention to
“Listen, I’m annoyed, okay? And it’s not like I don’t know that I made a mistake. I completely agree with everything you’re saying. And it is not even about Madeline anymore. It is about what Silver did and what is spreading around,” Elgin replied sharply, causing me to clench my fist while he reached for the bottle to pour himself another glass of wine.
“That is enough.” I bent down quickly and snatched the bottle out of his hands. I pointed at him with the hand holding the bottle, my fingers tight around the neck.
“No, that is not enough p>
The creepy look on Elgin’s face and his soft tone shocked me. He was staring at me with a smile on his lips.
“It is just the beginning, Graham. You will be next p>
The minute he said that, my hand lowered. My body felt like it relaxed because my limbs went numb, but they did
not. I was tense.
“What do you mean?” I asked. “Are you threatening me p>
He shook his head and wagged his finger, laughing at my words like they were a joke to him.
“She summoned the Moon goddess. I’m telling you, she did. I got struck with her curse of humiliation. You think that is where it stops? You will be next p>
Elgin’s words gave me goosebumps. I watched his face for a moment, then turned away and took a big sip directly from the bottle, hearing him cackle at my anxiety. When I lowered the bottle from my mouth, I stared at it.
“This is the wine. This is the alcohol speaking in you,” I muttered.
Because that was the truth. I did not believe anything he was saying. I did not do anything wrong to Madeline. These things happen. 1
I was involved, and I did not even get to do anything in the end. 1
That just proved I was innocent, and the Moon goddess was not going to come after me, leaving her busy schedule

just to chase someone because he showed interest in one of her subjects and she rejected it.
“Now what are you going to do?” I asked, changing the subject because every time he talked about the Moon goddess, he made me uncomfortable.
“I’m going to divorce the shit out of her, and I’m going to keep my daughters with me,” Elgin answered. “And I’m going to remarry p>
He said those last words in a fearless whisper.“Well, it is kind of a shocker that an alpha turned out this way. I mean, one would think only a rogue would p>
I paused when his words registered.
“You will remarry? Who the fuck will you remarry?” I asked before it hit me. “No, Elgin, just stay away from Madeline. She will never marry you, and right now the council wants everyone to back off from her affairs so she can help the children and get to the bottom of the sickness p>
I warned him to stop himself from making another mistake. It seemed like he never learned from his mistakes, and that confused me.
“Don’t worry, it’s not going to be Madeline, because I know it will not be easy for me to convince her to marry me, especially when she’s still married to that sleeping prince, the loser,” Elgin muttered when mentioning Baxter. 2
“Okay, you know what, Elgin? Don’t start a war with everyone. Baxter is our friend, so I hope you don’t spread your negativity toward him. We have already betrayed him too many times.” 1
I started to speak again when Elgin chuckled, shook his head, and snatched the bottle out of my hands.
“He has betrayed us by keeping her for himself,” Elgin replied, taking another big gulp.
“Or maybe you’re forgetting that we were going to take her for ourselves, but we fucked it up. I’m not even going to talk about it. Let’s just move forward with our lives and stop playing games. Deal with this mess once and for all. The things being spread around are nasty.” 1
I explained it to him as best as I could, but it seemed like Elgin had lost his mind. I had never seen him this low before. And it was all thanks to the woman he had once been so proud of.
He used to gloat about marrying an alpha’s daughter. He used to be proud that she gave him a whole pack. Now she had given him such humiliation that he could not even open the internet or look at his phone anymore.
After speaking with him, I decided to return to my pack. His mother insisted that I stay, but I could not deal with it.
From what I heard, Silver was staying in a hotel, and they were trying not to disclose her location because the media was looking for her to get a scoop.
At the same time, I did not want to stick around. I would be lying if I said staying with Elgin would not ruin my reputation right now. ↑
So I slipped out of his place and went back home to my innocent, loyal wife, the most perfect woman who could do no wrong. 1
