"What did you say?" In shock, I inquired from Maddox. His claims left me speechless. He was staring into my eyes with much pain.

"I heard you and Helel talk about Colt," he paused, closing his eyes and walking away to calm down first. I watched him wander around, run his hands through his hair, and fix hist posture before returning to me.

"I knew Colt was a weredragon. I also knew Helel was looking for him, so---- I did what I could to-save your friend. I found him first and hid him in the cabin. I was going to help him escape the country. I couldn't give him any cellphone to contact you or anyone else because I didn't want anyone else to get blamed for associating with and helping the weredrag- on." Maddox admitted to doing so much for me and not even telling me about it.

I was just watching him with no idea how to respond to him.

"You didn't even tell me---," I sighed, feeling like an idiot for thinking nobody would help Colt.

"I didn't have to. I just wanted to help him with you." He whispered, "But then what did you do? The instant you are in pain, you went over to him and he---," Maddox's expressions changed again as misconceptions clouded his mind.
