Chapter 86
[SAMANTHA’s Point of View]
“Mommy!”
“Please take us home!”
Devon and Diana cried, and I was confused about what had happened. For a matter of minutes, when I wasn’t looking at them, when I parked my car in the parking lot, the kids were already in distress and crying.
My eyes looked for Madison and Cynthia, wondering where the hell they went when my kids were left in the playground looking scared. I was so furious I glared at the mothers and they threw me the same distasteful look as they led their children away from us.
I couldn’t believe the amount of hatred I was getting from these people. Convincing the council and the members about my worth in the pack was not enough for the Silver Crescent to completely accept us. While I haven’t done anything to make them believe I can be the Luna this pack needed, I wouldn’t be anything to them but a deserter.
Madison came running towards me, her face as white as paper as she panted with her forehead beaded with cold sweat, “I am so sorry, Miss Samantha!”
Her eyes were wide with fear when she looked at me, but I saw she was more concerned about the kids than her fear of my anger. She bent down to rub Diana’s back, trying to comfort my daughter while her face was full of guilt. Her eyes were teary as she asked Diana, “What happened, sweetheart? I am so sorry; I thought Cynthia was with you when I left to go to the bathroom! Did someone hurt you? Oh, I’m really so sorry.”
Diana didn’t look upset with Madison, though, and let go of me to hug her babysitter. Devon looked at them and then at me as he exclaimed, "It’s the other maid," in a nervous voice. “She told us Diana and I are wolfless! She told us we are not welcome in this place and we will never be happy here!”
My eyes sharpened. “A maid? Not Cynthia and Madison?”
