Eleanor's POVI knew that if I went to Lawrence right away, Madison would follow me. So, I had no choice but to follow her back into the apartment. I quickly sent Lawrence a text message telling him about my encounter with Madison at the police station and having to postpone going home.Lawrence was now in Logan's care, so I knew that he would be fine. I didn't know how Lawrence ended up with Logan but I was happy to know that they had made up for the time being.Madison and I returned to the apartment, and I felt very weak because of the pregnancy and the injuries I sustained during the kidnapping.Madison could see that I was in a bad shape. "Eleanor, you're in shock, just rest."I sighed, "Madison, can we talk?"Madison weighed the situation for a moment, then she sat down on the couch across from me.I said, "First of all, I don't understand your mentality as a blind hunter going after werewolves, especially when those werewolves are my friends and loved ones." I paused so that sh
Lawrence's POVAt the hospital, I saw Eleanor's text message and felt relieved. At least she was safe now, and if the plan went well, I would be able to see Eleanor soon.Logan, however, was furious with me for not being able to bring Eleanor out to safety."Lawrence, what's wrong with you? Eleanor's still in the hands of the hunters, you know how dangerous that is!" Logan said angrily, waving his hands in the air. "If I had known it would end up like this, I would have gotten you to wait in the car instead! If it had been me, I would have saved her already!"I sneered at him, "Logan, know your place. You're just a beta. With your strength, do you think you would have been able to take on Charles and the other werewolves by yourself? And it wasn't just them, there were other hunters too. And Eleanor's leg was injured, there was no way for her to leave with me."Logan's eyes narrowed dangerously and he questioned me, "So you just left her there? In the hands of the hunters?"I sighed a
Eleanor's POVDue to the attack by the crazy mob of fans, Madison suffered some major injuries. I sat in the ambulance, holding Madison's hand the whole time. Then came a 'ping' on my phone. I looked at it and saw that it was a text message from Lawrence but I was in no mood to reply.Madison was my best friend, she came to Bena's memorial service to take care of me and protect me and she was injured all because of me.I sighed and looked out the window and saw that behind us, trailed yet another ambulance. And in that ambulance sat Madison's hunter friends and Harley, all of whom were also attacked by the horde of enraged fans. The hunters had not fought back, so none of the fans were injured and only a small number of the fans were taken away by the police for questioning.Madison was brought into the hospital and pushed into the operating theatre, leaving me to wait anxiously at the hospital corridor.I was pacing back and forth nervously when I remembered to call Lawrence. Quick
Eleanor's POVI felt as if poisoned swords were stabbing the inside of my stomach and I keeled from the onslaught of hurt. Lawrence kept reassuring me while he carried me to the doctor, "It's okay, Eleanor, it's going to be okay."The doctor quickly arranged for a few tests and an hour later, he came back with the results of the examination, "Mr. Lawrence, please don't worry. Your wife is fine for now, she's just overworked and needs to recuperate for a while."A serious expression appeared on his face as he turned toward me, "Also..." The doctor continued, "We found that your wife may have been too stressed out. Her mental condition is not stable. You should be with her to give her a sense of security. It is crucial that your wife gets enough rest, the fetus depends on your wife's health to develop healthily. Remember that negative emotions have a great impact on the physical condition of pregnant women."Lawrence stood up and nodded his head seriously, "Thank you, doctor. I will tak
Eleanor's POVMadison's father was a wonderful hunter and a friend of my father's. But he was now too old to continue chasing werewolves, so he'd retired and left Madison to continue the tradition. I answered the phone when Lawrence gestured that I should pick it up, "Uncle Jon, it's been such a long time. What can I do for you?"Uncle Jon sounded very worried, "Eleanor, I heard that Madison was injured in Vatican. Do you know anything about that? Is she okay?"I immediately replied, "Uncle, don't worry. She's fine, but she will need to recuperate for a while. She won't be able to do any hard job. I will take good care of her."Uncle Jon said, "No, no. She's a big girl. And getting injured comes with the job. Besides, I don't want to trouble you too much."I felt very guilty, "Uncle Jon, please don't ever say that. Madison is my best friend, and she got hurt because of me. I am sorry... I will make sure that she gets back to health."Uncle Jon's voice filtered through the phone, "It
Eleanor's POVI reached Harley's ward. He was the only one around and had the whole place to himself. His arm was injured and was in a cast. I overheard the doctor saying that he would have to stay in the hospital for a while as he also had a slight concussion. Just to make sure that he was all right. Harley had accompanied Lawrence to meet up with us. However, he ended up injured while protecting Madison. I placed the fruit and flowers on the small bedside table. He had not sensed my presence. So, I spoke up, "Hi Harley, how's your hand?"Harley opened his eyes, surprised at my presence in his room. "Miss Eleanor, what brings you here?"I said, "I just thought I would check on you. I am so sorry, Harley, if it weren't for us, you wouldn't have been injured."Harley smiled, "It's okay, don't take it to heart, Madison and I are friends too, I couldn't very well allow those people to attack her."Now was a good opportunity to find out whether he had any feelings for Madison. With a s
Eleanor's POVLawrence told me that his uncle's name was Nathan, he was a rich businessman who ran a wine business in France.I wanted to prepare a warm welcome for Nathan. After all, it was the first time that we were meeting, and I wanted to leave a good impression on him.After asking Lawrence, I realized that he wasn't entirely sure of their reason for the visit. But I could sense that it was definitely more than just a simple visit.Lawrence had mentioned that his uncle was very fond of wine, he was an expert in the matter. Nathan also had a winery in Vatican. Apparently, he once lived there as well. I supposed that an excellent bottle of wine would be a perfect gift.Lawrence and I went headed to a shopping mall. He was on the phone and he gestured at me to go along and run the errands all by myself. I nodded at him and signaled him that he could give me a call as soon as he was done. I found my way to a shop, hoping that Lawrence would soon join me. I hated being by myself. I
Eleanor's POVLawrence's words echoed, "She's a bit of a nervous wreck, just like Stella..."Intuitively, if this aunt had been there, she would not have liked me.Stella killed herself because of what happened with Logan and me, and if Aunt Marissa knew, she would surely hate me as much as Stella did.Lawrence threw me a quick look, "Don't worry, Aunt Marissa will not be coming. As I said earlier, she's not in a good state of mind, so she's been staying at Uncle Nathan's house."I was curious about the fate of the husband, "And then what happened? Did you ever find the man?"Lawrence said, "I don't know much about him, I heard that after the man ran away with his mistress, he tried to restart his career. But that was short-lived. There was a car accident, his mistress lost her legs, his face was seriously ruined and his career was buried."Could it have been fate catching up with them? If it had been Stella, I had no doubt that she would have caused it all. Just like she once did to
