Chapter 339: Maybe it made you happy

Kylie was the first to snap out of the stunned silence. The weight of Voren’s words hung heavy in the small living room, too serious to brush off.

Her eyes widened for a moment before narrowing slightly. "Alpha Voren," she said, her voice calm but carrying a clear note of hurt underneath. "Are you suggesting that I had something to do with Seraphine’s memory loss?"

The question cut through the air. Voren’s jaw tightened as his emotions surged dangerously close to the surface.

Everything he had learned in the last twenty-four hours had completely upended his world. Esperanza, the missing memories, the possibility of sorcery, and the gut-wrenching realization that Seraphine might have spent years suffering because of something done to her.

Staying calm was getting harder by the second. Voren’s gaze stayed locked on Kylie. "So you knew."

The temperature in the room seemed to drop. Humphrey frowned immediately, but Kylie let out a long, tired sigh. The older woman suddenly looked exhausted. "Honestly, Alpha Voren, Seraphine appeared perfectly fine when she woke up. We had no reason to believe anything was wrong."

Humphrey nodded in agreement. "And don’t forget something important. Her parents were the ones giving us the information." The reminder didn’t do much to ease the storm raging inside Voren, but Humphrey pressed on.

"What exactly were we supposed to do? Yes, we were the leaders of the pack, but being Alpha and Luna doesn’t mean we can override a parent’s authority, especially when there was no evidence suggesting anything unusual."

The explanation made logical sense. Unfortunately, logic wasn’t doing much to soothe Voren’s emotions right now. The more he thought about everything they had lost, the angrier he became.
