Chapter 17 Meanwhile , Amelia walked into a room , like a confined space . She saw her daughter , sitting in the corner in tears . " Eva , " she called softly , moving toward her and crouching to help her up , but Eva shook her head violently , still crying . " What's wrong, sweetheart ? Mommy's here ... " She wiped the tears from her daughter's cheeks as she sat beside her . " I need Daddy ," Eva sobbed . " That woman with him , she tried to kill me . She's going to kill me again ! " Eva kept pointing at the door , trembling . Amelia's heart clenched . She raised her head and looked toward the door . There , she saw a woman holding Aiden's hand . Their backs were turned to her . she couldn't see the woman's face . They walked out together . " Aiden , " she called out , standing up and rushing after them . She needed to see the face of the woman who was going to hurt her child . But the moment she stepped through the door , everything vanished . Her eyes flew open . She blinked rapidly , confused . White ceiling . Beeping monitor . A drip in her arm . She turned her head slowly, trying to make sense of her surroundings . ATV sat at the end of the room . A soft rhythm from the monitor pulsed beside her . Her whole body ached . She groaned as she tried to sit up , her limbs weak and sore . " You're awake , " came a voice , familiar , but strange . She turned . A woman sat beside the bed in a chair , her presence calm and steady . The woman had short silver - grey hair that fell just past her shoulders and warm brown eyes . She looked like she was in her mid - 50s , elegant yet strong . " Who are you ? " Amelia asked quietly . " My name is Seraphina Wrenmoor , " the woman replied with a gentle smile . " I saved your life . " Amelia blinked at her , confused . " Don't you remember ? " Seraphina asked , tilting her head slightly . Amelia didn't answer . Her mind felt scrambled , heavy . " Where's my daughter ? What happened to me ? " she whispered , confused . Seraphina's voice softened . " Amelia ... your daughter . She's gone . Your husband rejected you and broke the wolf bond . He divorced you . I found you on the street , covered in blood . " The words hit like a hammer . Amelia sat frozen . Then it hit , like a dam breaking . The memories came flooding back : Eva's death . Aiden's rejection . The divorce . The men who beat her . Her chest heaved . Panic . Pain . Grief .

" It's okay , " Seraphina murmured , reaching for her hand . "You're safe now . " " My baby ... they killed my baby too ... " Amelia sobbed , her hand clutching at her stomach as if searching for the life that once grew there . " Your baby is fine , Amelia , " Seraphina whispered . " Your baby is safe . " Amelia paused , her breathing ragged : Her tear - filled eyes turned to her . " My baby is okay ? " she asked , her voice trembling . Seraphina nodded . " We arrived in time and saved you . Your baby is okay ." She poured a glass of water and handed it to her . Amelia stared at her , suspicious . She didn't know this woman . For all she knew , she could've been sent by Aiden to finish what he started . " I'm not going to harm you , Amelia . I saved your life . You were unconscious for two days . I'm not here to hurt you , " Seraphina said gently . Amelia nodded slowly , took the glass , and drank the water in one long gulp . Then she handed it back . " What do you want from me ? Why did you save me ? Did Aiden send you to finish me off ? " she asked , her voice sharp with pain and confusion . " No , " Seraphina answered calmly . " I was coming to Red Moon Pack for some matters when I saw a crowd gathered around somewhere . When I got closer , I saw it was you , and I couldn't just leave you there ." Amelia's mind flashed back . She remembered lying on the ground, barely breathing... and a woman's voice calling her name . It was her . She had saved her . Still , something didn't sit right . Why had she saved her ? What did she want ? Then her mind raced to her mother . " I need to go home , " Amelia said . " My mother , she'll be worried . She needs to know I'm alive ." Seraphina's expression darkened . " They laid you to rest today ... " Amelia turned her head sharply . " What do you mean ? " " They think you're dead . They buried you . If you go back , you'll be putting yourself and your baby in danger . If you won't think of yourself , think of the child you're carrying . " Amelia stared at her , speechless . Just then , the door opened and a man walked in . His face was drawn tight with worry . His eyes moved between Seraphina and Amelia . " She's awake , " he said , surprised . " What's wrong , Kael ? " Seraphina asked when she noticed the look on his face . 2/3 15:49 Mon , 13 Oct AOP Chapter 17 Kael didn't answer . He picked up the remote and switched on the television .
