Edna felt tears prick at the corners of her eyes as she struggled to control her emotions. She couldn't believe that everyone had been keeping such a big secret from her.

"But why did Derek do this?" she asked, turning back to Victoria.

Victoria shrugged. "I don't really know," she said. "All I know is that he's dangerous, and you need to stay away from him." “You getting involved with him would only lead you to your death just like your parents." She said.

Edna felt a sense of confusion and betrayal wash over her as she struggled to come to terms with everything she had just learned. She couldn't believe that Derek had kept such a big secret from her, and she couldn't believe that Marcus had gone along with it.

Victoria's revelation had hit Edna like a ton of bricks. She couldn't believe what she had just heard. She looked at Marcus, hoping that he would give her an explanation. But Marcus remained silent, his face betraying nothing. Edna was getting more and more frustrated.

    As Edna left the room, Derek couldn't help but feel like he had messed everything up. He paced back and forth, his mind racing with thoughts of Edna.“Why did I have to be so stupid?" he muttered to himself. "She's never going to want to see me again after this."

"Oh, I see," he said, running a hand through his hair. "I still can't believe this is all happening. I don't know what to do." Marcus put a hand

    Marcus followed Victoria to the door and before she left, he told her in no uncertain terms how he felt."What were you thinking, Victoria? That after revealing Derek's secret, you would win and get them to break up? You are wrong. They will bounce back from this." Victoria sneered at him, not caring about his words. "They won't trust each other anymore after what Derek did," she said, trying to justify her actions."You really are a monster, Victoria, and you don't deserve to be in our pack, so I suggest you leave now," Marcus said, pointing to the door. Victoria smirked and started to walk away, but Marcus wasn't finished yet. "You don't have feelings because you choose not to have them," he said, catching up to her. "Do you know what Derek did for you when you almost died many years ago?"Victoria was confused by what Marcus said. “What are you talking about?" She asked him to explain. Marcus took a deep breath and revealed a dark secret that had been kept hidden for years. "Bla

    "But he didn't," Edna pointed out. "He kept it from me, just like he kept the truth about my mother's death from me. I trusted him, Marcus, and he betrayed that trust.""I know," Marcus said sympathetically. "And I'm not defending his actions. But you have to understand that Derek was in a difficult position. He loved your mother, but he also loved you. He didn't want to hurt either of you, and he thought that keeping the truth from you was the best thing to do."Edna nodded, understanding what Marcus was saying.

How can I ever trust him again?""I don't know," Marcus admitted. "But I do know that Derek loves you, and he's willing to do whatever it takes to make it right.

She couldn't help but wonder if it was him she loved instead of Derek, would he keep such a big secret from her? But she quickly reprimanded herself for having such thoughts when they were in the middle of a crisis."Marcus," she said softly, approaching him. "What do we do now? We can't just sit around and wait for Blake to attack."Marcus looked up at her, his expression serious. "I know. I'm trying to think of a way to stop him, but I don't have enough information."Edna frowned. "Is there anything I can do to help?"Marcus hesitated, unsure if he wanted to involve her in such a dangerous mission. "I don't know, Edna. This is risky, and I don't want to put you in harm's way.""I'm not afraid," she said firmly. "I want to help stop Blake and protect my family and friends."Marcus nodded slowly. "O
