Chapter 11 Liam's Concern

Selena's POVI was a little confused to see Liam. I remembered that I was supposed to on the way to my mentor's hospital, so why was I here?"Don't think too much about it. I found you passed out on the floor on my way to work. What happened?" Liam asked with concern, noticing something unusual in my expression."Nothing, maybe it's just the aftermath of that awful illness." I struggled to sit up and lean against the hospital bed."Is he still asking you to help with the blood transfusion?" Liam asked seriously. He was serving a bowl of hot soup and froze when he heard my answer."Yeah, but I refused." I looked at Liam; he was pure, like a blank sheet of paper.We met on campus. Liam attracted a lot of attention with his excellent medical skills and outstanding appearance, becoming the dream guy of many girls. But over the years, even after joining the workforce, he hadn't shown any intimacy with other girls. If he hadn't repeatedly emphasized that he was straight, many people might h

Chapter 12 Humiliation

Selena's POVWhen I arrived home in a muddle, I found Xander sitting in the hall, watching me teasingly. It seemed as if he had expected me to have little to no solution to my father's problem.I realized that even if I hadn't fainted on my way out the door and had followed my mentor to the Institute as usual, I would have been forced to leave soon after due to a variety of "accidents." That was Xander's style. If he wants to treat someone well, he can get them even the stars in the sky. But if he doesn't, even your every breath seems superfluous to him."How's the job search going?" Xander inquired without looking up, his head bent over his phone. It was a banal question that would represent concern in any normal conversation, but coming from Xander, it had only one purpose: to hear my embarrassing story."Xander, have you had enough? What do you want from me?" Recognizing Xander's true nature, I stopped pretending and questioned him with my head held high."Didn't you know all abo

Chapter 13 The Treatment

Selena's POVHearing Xander's words, my eyes widened in disbelief. It turns out that everything he just did was to humiliate me."You really are as shameless as your disgraceful father. Get lost. I haven't had enough of toying with your father and his pathetic pack."Xander wore a mocking smile as he picked up his clothes and delivered a cold parting shot before turning to leave. I sat alone in my empty room, uncontested tears streaming down my face.I couldn't remember when it started, but Xander seemed to have suddenly developed a hostile attitude towards my father. I had tried to defuse it, but every time my father was mentioned, Xander became hysterical. Slowly, his hatred transferred from my father to me. That was the beginning of our split.The question then becomes: what did my father ever do to anger Xander so much? If I were to ask Xander directly, I can only imagine his face full of contempt. From what I understand, my father was just an old acquaintance of Xander's father,

Chapter 14 Xander's Anget

Selena's POVI spent the next few days peacefully and quietly in the hospital undergoing Liam's treatment. The healing process was as difficult as Liam had warned me it would be. The Mate Bond between Xander and me was becoming extremely weak, and the excessive amount of blood consumption was completely depleting my strength."So what should I do?" I asked.I sat in the treatment room and watched as Liam rattled off a half-dozen analyses about my condition. The seriousness on his face was really testing my patience."I'll start by replenishing the losses in your bloodline, but I'm afraid I won't be using anesthesia-type drugs during the process to keep it pure and free of any impurities," he said."Uh, okay," I replied, giving Liam a gentle smile to ease the self-loathing he carried in his heart.The pain I've suffered over the past few years was far harder to bear than these physical tortures. I thought of a time when I had accidentally angered Xander. He made me kneel outside in a r

Chapter 15 Xander's Secret

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

Chapter 16 The Truth

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

Chapter 17 The Argument

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

Chapter 18 Start The Investigation

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

Chapter 19 Xander's Uncle

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

Chapter 20 Claire's Invitation

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
