Before I could answer, the door to my room opened, and in came my mother. She looked like a mess with her red, swollen eyes and messy hair.
"I will speak to you later," I whispered to Maddox, watch- ing my brother look like a zombie and stand near the door.
"Where are you going?" Maddox complained from the other side. I didn't want to hang up on him and let him think I was running from the conversation, which I wanted to, so I didn't hang up on him just for a few seconds.
"Mom! What is going on? Are you okay?" I held the phone in my hand and rushed over to my mother.
"He will marry her," my mother said, panicky and shed- ding tears. Now that I was certain Maddox had heard her, I hung up on him and held my mother by her arm to sit her down in my bed.
"What are you saying? Did Lord Vasquez say that to you?" I asked, and she shook her head.
"He doesn't have to. I am sure he will accept her, eventual- ly. I don't know what to do now. He was in my control as long as I was the only one with him, but now he has two other mates who are desperate enough to get accepted by him." My mom buried her face in her hands and whimpered.
I felt bad for her. All she wanted was for her mate to be loyal to her and exclusive to her. However, this could be the sign that we leave.

But now that my dragon has tasted freedom, I was afraid she would one day break free from the effect of medicines and transition. And that day will be my last day to breathe in fresh air.
"You don't have to worry about anything. Get ready for dinner. Lord Vasquez wanted everyone to attend the dinner to welcome Flynn into the mansion." Her entire demeanor changed. She even smiled and brushed my finger through my platinum blond hair before getting up and walking towards the door. I was still in confusion and worried about what she meant by all that.
Since she had left, I took a shower and got ready for din- ner. To my surprise, everybody had arrived in the dining room. Not only were Lord Vasquez's lunas and baby mommas present there, but all the sons were also attending the dinner.
Maddox and Zane had just arrived and only took a shower when their father asked them to join the dinner. Zane had been silently glaring into Flynn's face. He had not looked away for a second while Maddox's blue eyes were making me un- comfortable. He was constantly staring at me.
"I am glad you all attended the dinner. This night is a spe- cial one for me. Under this room, I finally have all my kids. present," Lord Vasquez, who didn't really give a fuck about what his sons or the Lunas were feeling, announced merrily.
"Not only are we feasting together, but now there will be a competition among the brothers," Lord Vasquez declared, and the brothers exchanged a worried look. Sofia almost
choked on her wine before locking her gaze on him.
"I know some of you will get upset. But it is the right thing to do. Since Flynn is also my son, he deserves to be given a chance to become the alpha king. So, he can challenge which- ever brother he wants to challenge, and then---- if he wins, he will get to keep the region," Lord Vasquez shrugged as if it wasn't a big deal to just throw one of the brothers out of the crown status. It was saddening because these brothers had been preparing since they were kids.
"What about my son, who will lose the crown?" Sofia spoke up, making everyone turn to her and agree with her, ex- cept for Flynn and Varisha.
