“She was,” I said. “I completely understand her, though. She’s been through so much in such a short time. I am overwhelmed and I can’t even imagine what she is going through.”
Well, I felt her emotions so I knew a little bit about it. But knowing how someone feels and actually having to go through something like that were two completely different things.
Will nodded. “I agree. I was shocked yesterday and I didn’t know how to react. I can’t imagine how she must be feeling.”
I nodded and ran my fingers through my hair.
“She is going to be okay,” I mumbled. “I will make sure of it.”
I wasn’t going to let anything or anyone hurt her. I wasn’t going to let anyone use her. I was going to make sure that she was safe.
“Did she talk to Skye?” Will asked me. “When will she shift?”
I sighed and furrowed my brows. I was so focused on Maddie yesterday and I didn’t even remember to ask her about Skye.
“I am not sure,” I said. “I talked to Skol yesterday and he told me that Maddie was pushing Skye away.”
Will sighed and shook his head a little.
“She needs time,” he said.
“She does,” I agreed. “I won’t push her on it. She will talk to her when she is ready.”
Will nodded again.
I looked at the papers on my desk and took a deep breath. I had to work and my focus was terrible. I wanted to go back to my mate. I didn’t want to be away from her for too long.
“Dimitri,” Will called my name.
I looked up at him and furrowed my brows. I could immediately tell that something was wrong. Will had an apologetic look on his face and I didn’t like it at all.
“What?” I asked, narrowing my eyes at him.
He took a deep breath and released it slowly.
“Tim came to talk to me this morning,” Will said and I tensed up immediately.
Tim was one of the guards who was watching over my mother and Savannah.
“What did he want?” I asked even though I already knew what Will was going to say.
He sighed and tightened his jaw.
“Your mother asked to see you,” Will said and I could feel the anger pulsating inside my body.
I didn’t want to see her. I would see her at her execution. I hadn’t seen her since she was dragged out of my office and I didn’t plan to go talk to her ever again. I hated her with every part of my body and soul.
“Well, she asked to see Maddie too,” Will added quietly.
My eyes widened and I could feel the anger exploding inside me. Every muscle in my body clenched. I felt like I was electrocuted.
Fuck no. Over my dead fucking body.
“No,” I growled, trying to stop my canines from elongating. “She will never breathe the same air as my mate. She will never lay eyes on her again.”
Will nodded. “I agree completely. I almost lost it when Tim told me that.”
I gritted my teeth.
