Selena's POV

"I don't know what you're talking about; he's just my doctor," I responded coldly, giving Xander a blank stare.

Xander stood tall and coldly surveyed Liam, who lay collapsed in a pool of blood. Suddenly, he twisted his head closer to my ear, his icy voice sending violent shudders through my entire body.

"Doctor? Stop making up such poor excuses. It's because of him that you want to leave me, isn't it?"

"Don't imagine me to be as rotten as you are."

I glared up at Xander, a sneer flashing in my eyes before I turned around, ready to leave.

"Aren't you going to care about your man?" Xander asked indifferently, his brow furrowing slightly.

Ignoring Xander's question, I didn't linger on Liam for a second as I turned and walked towards the villa. Though worried sick inside, I realized showing any concern for Liam would only provoke a more violent reaction from Xander.

"Don't worry, he won't die," Via assured me, noting I had glanced at Liam unintentionally. She confirmed he had

    Selena's POVThe scene before me nearly rendered my brain speechless. I had contemplated the situation between Xander and my father, but now it appeared far more dire than I had imagined."Selena, look in the top right corner. Your name is mentioned there too."When I was still in shock, Via reminded me to focus on the screen.The lighting was dim, and unlike Xander's excellent night vision, I struggled to see clearly. Stepping back, I tried to decipher the entire screen."Xander is a totally insane," Via exclaimed, her fear palpable.The large screen displayed a complex web of relationships. Xander's parents' black-and-white portrait hung in the center, surrounded by images of various characters linked to the accident that had affected them. My father's picture was prominently featured, accompanied by extensive notes, likely detailing his whereabouts before and after the tragedy."Via, do you think my father could be responsible for this?"The information overwhelmed me, making it di

    Selena's POVAfter our last confrontation in the basement, Xander and I fell into an uneasy silence. He didn't harass me as before or bring Lisandra around to flaunt their affection.Sometimes, during chance encounters at the packhouse, Xander and I would pause, the air thick with unspoken tension. Whatever was happening between us, it was changing us in subtle ways."Via, do you think Xander will ever treat me the way he did before?" I asked softly."That's not necessarily true. It seems like you've reached a reconciliation, but in reality, it's only just begun."Via gently licked her fur, then absentmindedly explained to me."I don't understand what you mean?"I stood by the window in the room, my eyes subconsciously scanning the open space below for any sign of Xander."Maybe before you didn't understand Xander's motives, but now it's clear. It's because of your father that Xander is interested in this...""It's not because of my father! There's no way my father did that!"I couldn

    Selena's POV"Selena, I don't think staying here is the way to solve the problem. Now that we have known everything, let's do what needs to be done." Via seemed to pick up on my thoughts and whispered a reminder after making sure Xander had left."Well, I also think I should make a trip back to meet my father. After all, I still seem to be the Luna of a powerful pack in his eyes." I smiled bitterly and then prepared to go back to my room to pack up my things and talk to my father.But on my way back to my room, I saw the last person I wanted to see. "If it isn't the beautiful and honorable Ms. Selena. I thought you swore you were leaving Xander a couple of days ago. Why are you still here after all this time?" Lisandra leaned against the wall with her arms folded over her chest, looking at me with a scornful expression."You don't have to be like that, Lisandra. As long as I'm still here, I'll always be ahead of you in line." I looked at Lisandra calmly, showing no emotion."I advise

    Selena's POV"Xander's uncle? How could he tell you that for no reason?"My father's reference to Xander's uncle came at such a critical moment. It all happened so coincidentally that one had to wonder if there was something else going on behind the scenes."So the murder of Xander's parents had nothing to do with you?" I asked, summoning the courage to look at my father."How can that be? Georgia and I were like brothers. How could I possibly victimize him?" My father cried out in shock at my question, causing the guards around us to rush in subconsciously."I want to know who started this rumor!" My father waved his hand for the guards to back off and then slapped the table angrily."No, you know how much of a shadow this incident has cast over Xander. It's inevitable that there will be some rumors, and it's making him a bit distracted," I sighed inwardly, choosing not to tell my father the truth."Alas, to be honest, Xander is also a pitiful child. That last crisis—it was fortunate

    Selena's POV"Thank you, but I have some things to do. I'll visit you again next time I'm free with Xander." I tried to squeeze out a polite smile and gave a slight nod toward Claire.I thought Claire would stop there, exchange pleasantries, and be done with it. But I didn't expect her to remain standing by my side, slowly removing her sunglasses. "There's a nice cafe over there, and I have a few things I'd like to discuss with you."Claire's tone was slow and unhurried, coupled with her warm smile. Like a good friend who hasn't been seen for many years, she exuded a warmth that made it hard not to feel close to her."Then... well."Although reason told me I shouldn't agree to Claire's request, I still got out of the car and followed her into the café. We had just sat down when the waitress came over respectfully."Cappuccino?" Claire asked me with a raised eyebrow."Americano will be fine.""Oh, I forgot you're not the same little girl I first met." Claire nodded a little apologetica

    Xander's POVI looked at Selena's sweet face indifferently, the anger inside me gradually on the verge of consuming my sanity."You didn't say anything to Claire that you shouldn't have, did you?"I let go of my grip on Selena's hand. Seeing the red mark on her white wrist made my heart feel heavy for some reason, so I twisted my face aside to look out the window."Tattletale? That's not my style," Selena responded, wincing as she moved her wrist.I could hear the resentment in her words, but at the moment, I felt more thankful. From the moment I started investigating Selena's involvement in my parents' death, I had consciously begun to cold shoulder her. No one else knew about it. To outsiders, Selena was still the glamorous Luna, but around me, she had become a tail-wagging dog.That was why I was extra nervous when I heard one of my men say that Selena had met with Claire that afternoon."So, what did Claire tell you?" I sat down on the couch and straightened my bow tie before loo

    Xander's POVWith the coldness I'd shown Selena over the past few days, the people in the pack had gradually stopped treating her as the Luna. Coupled with the omega work I had arranged for her earlier, almost everyone looked at Selena with a hint of contempt. After all, no one in the pack had dared to disobey me yet.But I'd noticed that whenever I was about to lose control of my sanity, the wolf Sol inside me was always the first to come out against me."That's because Selena is your mate. The two of you are closely linked. If Selena gets hurt, you will also suffer accordingly. Not to mention, you're the one who initiated the trouble," Sol explained bitterly. "This is why the mate bond between you and Selena is getting weaker and weaker. The damage is mutual. You are now impaired in strength, and Selena, who has endured this for years, is definitely not as strong as she used to be," Sol said, letting out a soft sigh.This made my heart feel inexplicably heavy.

Fresh blood covered his body, staining his white uniform a deep red, but there was no doubt that the blood came from the Rogue who attacked us earlier.As the Beta of the pack, Terry's strength was unquestionable, but this situation was much grimmer than we had faced before."They obviously planned this attack in detail, timing it perfectly to exploit your weakness and..."Seeing that I was unmoved, Terry continued, "There are just too many of them this time. Most of our people are at the camp. I've already notified them to head this way. There's nothing of importance at the packhouse, so when our larger force arrives…""Go back!"I grimaced, interrupting Terry. I didn't know why, but when he said there was nothing important at the packhouse, my heart felt like it had been violently stabbed. Selena's face unconsci

    Selena's POVSure enough, after Xander finished his interview, word spread within the pack that he was going to hold a meeting in the evening to explain himself to the Council of Elders. With the future of the entire pack at stake, the meeting venue was already packed before noon. As the center of this event, I should have been nervous, but I wasn't.Looking at Xander's handsome yet indifferent face on my cell phone screen, I felt only a deep chill in my heart."Are you ready? We're the center of attention tonight. Come on, try on the dress I prepared for you."Gloria took out a red gown and paired it with a white tulle overlay, embellished with sparkling diamonds. As she gently swung it, it created a graceful arc."That's nice. You'll look great in this," Liam commented, nodding in satisfaction as he stood next to her."Trust my aesthetics. You'll surely catch their eyes tonight," Gloria said, folding her arms across her chest with a smug look on her face."So what do I need to do la

    Selena's POVEver since Xander slapped me in the face at the packhouse, I'd been in the hospital for days, and Xander hadn't contacted me again as if I didn't exist. If this had happened before, I probably would have been demoralized and confused by useless treatments. But this time, I had Gloria with me, and she made me feel a lot better."You're suffering here while that bastard Xander is out there living it up. I'll contact a few media outlets to expose him so everyone can see his true colors," Gloria said, sitting on the edge of her bed, boredly checking the news about Xander on her tablet. The internet was abuzz with the incident; it had caused quite a stir.Lately, Xander had been bringing Lisandra to all the events he attended, with no sign of me. The media speculated that the last attack was likely due to a love affair."This skanky bitch makes me want to puke just looking at her. She's always rubbing her boobs against Xander's arm. Even though Xander's no slouch, he looks li

After Xander and I became mates, she went abroad. In just a few short years, no one could have expected such a drastic change."No, it just happened naturally," I replied.Seeing Gloria still looking so innocent, I can't imagine how sad she'll be when she learns the truth."Are you kidding? Quickly pack up and get out of the hospital. These few years abroad have suffocated me! I'll come back, find a super handsome guy, and go completely crazy!" Gloria sat at the end of my bed with a big smile on her face.Watching this playful routine, I was in a trance, as if I had suddenly returned to our student days. Back then, Gloria and I agreed that if one of us got married, the other would follow within a year, so that our children would be about the same age. If they were both girls, they'd be good sisters, and if they were a boy and a g

    Selena's POVWhen I woke up again, my head was aching almost to the point of exploding, and the air smelled strongly of disinfectant, which made me want to dry-heave. It looked like I was in a hospital room."You awake?" Liam, who heard the commotion, asked as he observed the data from the instruments."Sorry, I'm just..." I gently brushed my hair back, trying to clear my head."You don't have to apologize to me. Your body is your own, but I don't think you should have such an irresponsible attitude." Liam's eyes moved away from the instruments and met mine. His serious and earnest gaze made me a little uncomfortable, and I hung my head like a child who'd made a mistake."As I've told you before, the treatment is successful at this stage. As long as you can hold out for a few more sessions, it will slowly restore the activity in your blood," Liam continued, looking a bit angry this time."I'm sorry, but... some things are out of my control." I pursed my lips and slowly curled my knees

I just asked Selena to clean the room; I didn't expect her to do such a thing."Seeing Xander return, Lisandra hurriedly jumped over and took his arm, making sure to squeeze out a few tears to appear pitiful."Selena, if you have any grievances, you can take them out on me. Why did you do such a thing? You know very well how important this is to Xander!"Lisandra cried her eyes out before turning towards me and blurting out her accusations.I was a bit speechless at Lisandra's false claims and just grunted coldly before twisting my face aside, lowering my body to clean the broken glass on the floor."Is that so?"Xander inquired coldly, his eyes cold and cruel, like he was looking at a dying prey.The air seemed to freeze in that moment, but I paid no attention to Xander, continuing to clean the glass before carefully putting the effigy of Xander's parents back in place."What did I ask you?"Xander's voice grew harsher as he walked quickly o

Sensing defeat, they chose to take their own lives."Terry frowned as he spoke."They all died?"Xander's voice rose instinctively, causing everyone around him to suppress their reactions."Yes. We couldn't trace the source. But this incident was my fault, and I am willing to accept the consequences."Terry bowed his head respectfully towards Xander.Xander turned to look at Terry, remaining silent for a long time. No one could guess what was going through his mind.Then Xander's gaze shifted to me, scrutinizing my condition as if assessing my well-being. I couldn't shake the feeling that there was an ulterior motive behind his apparent concern

    Selena's POVWhen I was attacked by the Rogues, my first thought wasn't panic. I knew I could never have attracted this much attention on my own; their targeting of the packhouse was clearly an attempt to threaten Xander by holding me hostage. What they didn't realize was that the relationship between Xander and me was already dead.When those vicious Rogues broke through the defense line, I felt no panic, only relief. Yet, deep down, I secretly hoped that Xander would arrive in the nick of time. So, when Xander did appear in front of me, I was filled with disbelief."Stop fidgeting and think about what to do," Via spoke up, reminding me of the critical situation. She understood the gravity of the moment as well."Xander, are you okay?" I couldn't help but ask as I looked at Xander, who was shielding me."These mongrels are delusional if they think they can take me down," Xander grunted coldly before turning back to scrutinize the Rogue in front of him.Looking at Xander's solid back,
