Gigi:
Just a few months ago, I had been the luckiest woman in the world, with four powerful men who loved me so much that they would change the pack rules for me.
But tonight, something had happened to them.
They seemed completely different from how they used to be.
I walked back into the garden and thought about telling Theodore how I was feeling.
Sadly, the moment I approached him, I realized he was already getting ready to leave.
"I’ll be in my room, if that’s okay," he murmured, pouting and avoiding eye contact before walking away.
Taking a deep breath, I turned to Mrs. Bundy.
"I’ll go home now. Why don’t you just wrap up the event?" I told her, watching as a very satisfied look crossed her face.
She didn’t seem confused or even try to ask why I was ending the event before the eclipse had happened.
It was as if she already knew.
And she seemed to be enjoying the failure of the event I had planned, all because I hadn’t told them about it in advance.
She was also upset that I hadn’t informed them earlier, which meant her daughter didn’t have a gown ready.
As if having a gown would have meant her daughter could actually come.
But Mrs. Bundy seemed convinced that the only reason her daughter hadn’t attended was because she hadn’t had time to prepare.
And yes, I hadn’t told anyone. I wanted to be the only one from the mansion to be prepared.
But whatever. The event had already failed anyway.
I went back home, leaving Ragnar a text asking him to let me know when he got home safely.
However, his only response was that everything was fine, he was just checking some reports, and I shouldn’t wait up for him because he might be late.
That night, I couldn’t sleep. Not until I received a text from Jaguar.
We started talking on the phone, and I thought that maybe, just maybe, he really hadn’t been feeling well.
I tried to show him that I hadn’t eaten anything because I was worried about him.
But then I found out that my boyfriend had gone to bring Verity home.
I heard it myself. I heard Jaguar call out for Theodore, Ragnar, and Verity before he ended the call.
Afterward, Jaguar called me again and told me what had happened.
Apparently, Ragnar had gone alone after receiving a video from Verity.
The video had come from her, not from some warrior informing him about reports of the monster.
And Ragnar had Verity passed out in his car.
I didn’t know what to think anymore. It felt like I was losing everything, like the brothers were slipping out of my hands, and I couldn’t understand why.
That wasn’t supposed to happen.
