“Then why do you think she’s not contacting us? Do you think maybe Samuel has- My son’s eyes welled up with tears.
“No! I don’t reckon we should fret over that. She’s alright, just maybe manipulated enough to not contact us,” seeing my son on the brink of tears made me realize I shouldn’t be too blunt with him.
if
Even I don’t know if she was staying there voluntarily or if he harmed her. I didn’t want to dwell on it because it was making me anxious.
“So what are we going to do now?” my son asked, peering at my face, hoping his father might have an idea on how to bring his
mother back.
“I’ll go visit Samuel in the morning and bring her back,” I said firmly.
“But what if he doesn’t allow you to see her? Or Mommy doesn’t want to see you?” His concerns saddened me deeply. Gradually, over time, his belief in his mother never leaving him behind seemed to be fading.
“Turner! Reyna would never do that. She’d always be concerned about you,” I said to reassure him.
“But how will you get there? What if they attack you like last time? Should I accompany you? Maybe that’ll coax Mommy out to face us? Turner smiled at his own idea. I would have loved to take him with me because, as he said, his presence could melt Reyna’s heart, but I wasn’t too sure about security.
Rogues can be pretty ruthless. What if they thought that getting rid of me and my son was the only way to secure Reyna for their Rogue king?
I didn’t even have a wolf by my side at the moment, so I couldn’t take any risks.
“Maybe not tomorrow. I’m pretty sure she’ll come back home,
, and if she doesn’t, then you can try that. But let me go there first, and don’t worry about the rogues. I’ll make sure to gather my warriors and have them with me,” I promised my son to take care of myse and not get attacked. But I didn’t know myself.
Reyna was our weakness, and the war itself was because of Reyna, We both wanted her, and in order to have her, it appeared as if we were going to war, causing damage to our own reputations.
“Okay,” Turner nodded.
“Now, sleep early so that you can wake up and bid me goodbye. By the time we return, you should be ready to embrace her and welcome her back home.”
I had so many dreams and things I wanted to do when I saw Reyna again. For example, I would do anything to clear my name an remove the accusations placed on me. The way she looked so hurt last time had me worried, and it also made me understand th communication is the key.
“Okay, Daddy. Goodnight,” Turner murmured. Giving him a kiss, I walked out of his bedroom and headed to my own. I couldn’t sle the entire night. My eyes were focused on Reyna’s clothes that she had left behind.

Chapter 133
“Why? Why aren’t you contacting me? Are you okay?” I muttered under my breath.
“I swear I will never act up again or even give you a reason to question my actions. Ugh! I miss you so much, I sighed and grunted, slumping onto the couch and staring at the empty bed.
Just like that, the night passed, and I hadn’t slept a minute. I quickly showered and got ready to leave with my guard to meet Reyna in the morning.
“How many warriors are you taking with you?” my mom approached, asking me with concern to ensure I wasn’t leaving anyone behind, I knew she was worried that Samuel would do something harmful to me. So she thought if I take many warriors with me, I will be fine.
“As many as I can. Happy now?” I smiled, reassuring my mother. I was excited too. I don’t know why, but I just felt like when see Reyna and she sees me again, she will somehow soften a little. There’s no way she would not come back with me. If not for me, then
for her son
“That’s good. Please don’t start any arguments. Just speak to Reyna and remind her that she has a son who is waiting for her in the pack and is unable to rest for a single minute,” my mother pleaded for me to keep my anger in check.
“I will be as calm as hell until Samuel gives me a reason. Mom, if he tries to manipulate Reyna in front of me, I’m not going to sit back and watch it happen,” I groaned, expressing my frustration with Samuel by clenching my fists.
“You need to realize that we are in a tough position right now. We cannot risk any wars,” Mom was right too. But I knew I would lose my mind if Samuel did something wrong there. So I only gave my mother a hesitant nod, not really meaning it.
However, before I could even step out of the mansion, I heard my mother calling for me again. This time, she looked so worried, gesturing for me to join her in the living room. She had some news playing on the TV.
“See this,” she pointed at the screen, and the moment I caught a glimpse of Reyna, it felt like my heart stopped beating. I gasped as watched Reyna stand beside Samuel, her hand in his. They looked like one happy couple. She didn’t look sick or upset. In fact, she was dressed up nicely with her hair in a cute messy braid. My heart skipped a beat at what I was going to find out next.
Samuel began to give a speech, and every word of it shattered my confidence. I couldn’t believe my ears and eyes. She openly stat that she had chosen Samuel, and the fact that Samuel too confirmed it made a big tear roll down my eyes.
“Why is he saying that she left her son to stay with him?” my mother grew anxious, rubbing her palms while tearing up.
“I was left speechless when Reyna chose Samuel, and they made that announcement.
“Daddy! Mommy left me?” Just as we were getting concerned, my son ran and hugged my legs. He seemed to have just woken up and saw the news.
“I don’t think it’s safe for you to go there anymore. They are planning a war, and she doesn’t want to comb back, my mom said through tears while I stood straight, unable to move a muscle.
