Chapter 466

The news of Jude's imprisonment spread like wildfire through the shelter, igniting a storm of fear and desperation among his twelve wives. Layla, ever the voice of reason amidst the tumult, stood resolute at the threshold, her eyes a mirror of determination.

Susan, her features etched with worry, nodded in agreement. "We can't just stand by and do nothing. We must act!"

The shelter buzzed with frenetic energy as Jude's wives grappled with conflicting emotions, fear, anger, and a fierce determination to stand by their beloved husband's side.

Layla, her gaze unwavering, stepped forward to quell the rising tide of urgency. "Jude expected this day might come," she explained, her voice calm yet resolute. "He entrusted me with a task, to prevent anyone from going to the castle."
