Chapter 110
Reyna Cruz:
I’ve been going out of my mind since I heard the news. I missed Sam’s call and couldn’t call him
back for more information. Mrs. Sparrow sat me down and offered me water while my son rubbed
my hands between his.
“Mom! Maybe she’s okay. Her house caught fire, not her. Turner said in his sweet and soothing
voice. I just stared at his face with my lips turned down. How do I tell him that I feared the worst had
happened?
“Maybe she’s okay? Just a few injuries and all.” Mrs. Sparrow offered a good excuse this time.
Maybe that was the case. Sam was worried because he knew I’d be worried for her. It doesn’t mean
she’s badly hurt.
“You’re right.” I wiped my cheek with the back of my hand and grabbed my phone with shaky hands
to call Samuel again.
“Hello,” I called Samuel again, this time expecting to get all the information from him instead of just
bits and pieces.
“Are you okay? You scared me so much.” Sam said. I nodded even though I knew he couldn’t see
me through his phone’s screen. I could see Mrs. Sparrow staring at my face. She didn’t like me
talking to Samuel, but ever since she knew her son had basically forced me into marrying him, she
couldn’t ask me to be loyal to her son anymore.
*I’m fine. I just didn’t think there was a possibility her injuries weren’t too bad,” Iughed like a fool,
thinking maybe if I said it out loud, it would be the truth.
“Reyna!” It was as if he felt sorry for me. “Polline–her injuries were bad.” he whispered, and I closed
my eyes. I don’t know why I thought I would be lucky enough to hear some good news but I was
ready to deal with it now,
“Oh!” A little whimper escaped my lips. “Which hospital is she at Ill go help her heal myself. I’ll stay
beside her until she’s able to get on her feet and recover.” It was going to be easy if I just took good
care of her. Once she recovers, she’ll be fine
like before.
“Reyna! You’re not getting my point. She was so–she didn’t survive, her body turned to crisp,” after
struggling toe up with words that wouldn’t feel heavy on my ears, he finally gave up and used a
direct approach that stunned me.
“No! You’re lying. Is this one of your ploys to get me to meet you?” I finally caught on. That has to be
it. I remember he was thanking Pollinest night because she seemed to be the only one who could
bring us together.
*I wish it were a lie. But it’s not,” he hissed from the other side. His grief was mixed with anger.
“Your rogues killed her?” I yelled when I couldn’t take it anymore.
Turner covered his mouth and then turned around to hug Mrs. Sparrow and cry. She began to calm
him down, but he was wailing, and I felt responsible for saying it out loud to him.
“My rogues? Do you think they would do that? They are already mourning their children, Reyna.
Ask your alpha king. Ask him who he sent to start this fire?” he yelled into the phone before
muttering some indecipherable words and hanging up the call. I was in disbelief.
He was using Hunter?
No way he would do that.
“I need to go.” I got up from my knees and watched Turner hold my hand.
“I want to see her too,” he was still whimpering when requesting me. I raised my head and shared a
nce with Mrs. Sparrow, who seemed to have understood my eyes.
“Turner! We will definitely go to the funeral. Your mother has to attend some other business,” she
pulled him back to hug

“Reyna!” Mrs. Sparrow shook me awake, and I looked her way with big teary eyes.
“Somebody set–Poline’s house on fire,” I couldn’t evenprehend that I needed to ask Sam if she
was okay. Maybe she was not even in the house at that time, but then why was he so worried aboutConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
