*Samuel, it's not what you think. I attempted to come up with an excuse, but what could I possibly say? He came crashing down on top of me, knocking me unconscious. If Samuel saw it, he must have witnessed the entire thing. But how?

1 felt guilty and ashamed of giving in so easily.

"Really?" he loomed over from across the road, still clad in our wedding suit. I couldn't fathom how I had hurt him so deeply.

"I am so sorry, I don't know what I was thinking or I was thinking at all. It is just that he had marked me so my wolf-1 paused when he scoffed.

"How wonderful that your son did not come to interrupt like he used to interrupt us all the time. Tell me something Reyna. was it that easy to move on from me and forgive Hunter for runing our wedding?" The hurt in his voice made me bite my bottom lip

"Sam! He-" as i began to explain to him that i am sorry and i have not forgiven him, i saw Sam pull the phone away from his car and then push it back again. It was like he was having a hard time trying to communicate with me.

"Please, talk to me. Let me explain, I pleaded, taking hesitant steps toward him, fearing he might flee again. And flee he did.

As he watched me approach, he hung up the call and turned to leave. Hastening after him, I called out his name, refusing to LIVE Up

"Sam"

"Let me speak, please!"

1 kept calling for him but he was in such a hurry that he didn't even want to look around and stare at me.

Before long, we found ourselves near the woods, and I refused to relent. Gasping for breath, I realized I was no match for strength as I chased after him. However, upon reaching the woods. I encountered unexpected danger.

Emerging from the shadows were a couple of rogue wolves, reatly to pounce. I stumbled backward, realizing Samuel had vanished into the woods, leaving me vulnerable.

"How dare you return to our territory?" the woman growled, brandishing a stick she aimed at my knee with a vicious swing.

"Ouch!" I cried out in pain, scrambling to escape their wrath. I hadn't anticipated how challenging it would be to navigate the rogue lands now. It used to be unsafe before but things have softened after Samuel appeared and took over without hiding in the shadows. So seeing such hostile rogues again was so scary

"Where do you think you're off to?" The man suddenly pinned me down, gripping my hair as he forced me onto my knees.

Caught off guard, I seized a moment to fight back, but the sinister woman swiftly injected something into my back, leaving me reeling from the effects.

"What the "I choked as the potent wollbane surged through my veins, rendering me helpless.

"Let's skin her alive and offer her to our rogue king, the woman snarled, delivering a stinging slap across my face as her accomplice restrained me by my hair

My body weakened as the poison spread, soon rendering the unable to even remain on my knees. I was in so much pain and that too so suddenly that I couldn't even bring myself to shout for help.

"Who the hell gave you the right to lay a finger on her?" Sam's voice thundered, and he lunged at his people. With motion, he knocked the man aside, causing the woman to retreat, making space for Samuel to catch me before I hit the ground.

"She injected-," I managed to utter, my eyelids feeling heavy.

"Hey, you're safe now. I'm here. Sam whispered, his face drawing close as he gently kissed my forehead.

"I won't let anyone hurt you again, he vowed, turning to glare at the rogues

"But we thought-you'd be pleased and perhaps even reward us for delivering her to you, the woman stammered, reahring Samuel had no intention of accepting their actions

"Release my wife," another voice cut through the tension. Hunter appeared, his anger visible from his heavy breathing and grunting as he confronted Samuel.

"What did you do to her?" Hunter demanded, but I couldn't keep my eyes open to witness the ensuing confrontation

Drifting into unconsciousness, I found myself in the car with Hunter when I woke up. Weak and disoriented. I could barely muster the energy to speak.

"Oh my God, is she okay?" Mrs. Sparrow's worried voice reached my ears as Hunter carried me inside.

"She'll be fine. Where's Turner? Hunter inquired of his mother.

"He was asking about you both. I kept him occupied with movies and games then gave him dinner, and he finally fell asleep about half an hour ago. I heard her reply, reassured that my son was being cared for "My son-you look-," the breaking of voice before she cleared her throat and fixed herself worried me. It sounded like she didn't want to ring attention to whatever had happened to Hunter.

"Do you need anything? You're injured his mother's concern shifted my focus, making me wonder what had transpired

after I lost consciousness.

Realizing it was late into the night. I questioned whether I had slept for hours. Why was Hunter bringing me home now?

"No, go rest. I'll take care of her. Hunter assured his mother, carrying me up the stairs and carefully placing me in bed.

I heard his mother cry softly behind him so I was even more puzzled now. What was she saying that was bothering her so much?

"Hunter-" I whispered weakly, my eyes struggling to stay open. He appeared disheveled in his black shirt,

"What happened?" I asked, my tone gruff with concern.

"Nothing. You're safe," he replied, leaning over to remove my shoes.

"Hmm! What happened to Samuel?" I hesitated to bring him up, torn between my concern for him and the situation unfolding between them.

"Hmm! He's fine. He'll survive," Hunter's response was curt, causing me to open my eyes fully. It dawned on me that perhaps I should have been more worried about what had happened to Hunter instead of fixating on Samuel.

"Hunter" I gasped, taking in his appearance. Though he kept his head lowered, I managed to crawl back in bed to get a better look at him

"What," I covered my mouth in shock when I saw his disfigured face. His skin was missing, revealing his jaw and teeth. It was as if something had torn away the lower half of his face, leaving a gaping wound. Half of his cheek was gone, and a large gash cut across his face and neck. He was badly injured and covered in blood.

"You should have seen the others," he commented, trying to reasure me, but I could only imagine the agony he must have endured. It was a wonder his mother remained calm. "Who did this to you" Linched closer, snatching my shoes from his hands and dropping them on the bed.

"I'll be fine." he insisted, attempting to shield his face from me. noticed that one of his eyes was swollen shut. Was he truly okay

"I attacked Samuel, and I wanted to tell you before he calls and you become upset with me. However, he healed quickly, so don't worry about him," he explained, but the way he spoke about Samuel, even though I knew he despised him, made me squint my eyes and burst into tears, burying my face in my hands.

"Reyna, you're not well. You were given a huge dose of wollbane Please, don't worry, I'm telling you, he's fine," he insisteil, gently reaching out to hold my hand. I noticed his nails were missing too. What on earth had happened?

"I'm not worried about him. Hunter. I'm worried about you. What happened to you?" I wanted to shake him for continually bringing up Samuel when all I wanted was to know why he hadot healed and if Samuel was responsible for his injuries.

You're worried about me?" he frowned, clearly surprised by my concern

"Hunter! What happened? Why haven't you healed?" I pressed, drawing closer. As much as I wanted to cradle his face in my hands, I was afraid I might hurt him further.

"I was attacked," he finally admitted, and for the first time since waking up, he spoke about himself, once he realized how concerned I was for him.
