I’d been added to two different women’s group chats. One was labeled “Enforcers <3”, and the other was called “Wildwood Bitches” with a wolf emoji next to it.
I couldn’t bite back my snort.
Smith must’ve been a woman, since she’d added me to those two messages.
My phone vibrated a few more times as they added me to three more group chats.
It seemed like an excessive number of message threads, but the packwassupposed to be like a massive family.
I left my phone on the swing next to me, and clicked around on Madd’s.
I immediately found a new text I hadn’t noticed earlier, from a guy named Vex. When I clicked on the message and skimmed the words, my stomach clenched.
Madd had texted him earlier, after I told him the name of the clan that had created us.
Madd
Garver clan is responsible. Take them out. Make sure you find and protect Sienna.
Vex
Getting a team together now. Already surrounding them in Wildwood, just prepping the team to hit their HQ. I’ll let you know when they go in.
He hadn’t messaged since then, so I didn’t think they’d taken action yet.
Though my stomach was still clenched, I felt…
Relieved.
Madd was doing exactly what I would’ve expected him to. Protecting me. I didn’t know who Vex was, but I’d known when I gave Madd the clan’s name that he was going to attack them.
And rescue Sienna.
It caught me off guard that he’d done it so quickly, but it didn’tsurpriseme. If anything, it fit what I knew of him perfectly. Hewasn’t the kind of guy who sat on information or waited after he’d decided to do something.
But I was still nervous.
I definitely wouldn’t be able to sleep until I heard back from Vex about the teams going in, or how it went after they did.
Particularly as far as Sienna’s safety was concerned.
With nothing else to do to occupy my mind while I waited, I went back to poking around on Madd’s phone.
Despite my anxiety, I was curious when it came to his messages.
We were mates, but I’d only seen how he was around me. His constant intensity. His focus and determination. What if he was different, around his pack?
What if he was happier around them?
I wanted to know.
But the more I read (and snooped), the more settled I felt.
Madd gave short, unemotional answers to every message he received. He never tried to have a long or playful conversation over text. He didn’t use emojis, gifs, or anything else.
Except with me.
He’d kept our conversations going when I tried to let them end.
