Chapter 8: The Misunderstood Attack

last update Last Updated: 2025-08-15 08:08:37

Their second meeting happened under the full moon. Dolphus was sixteen then. His wolf had already awakened, muscles sharpening with every moon cycle. Elena, only eleven, was small, fragile and her scent still untouched by the shift. Yet that night, she bled for the pack.

Elena had thrown herself forward, shielded Drake from the attack, and took two blade strikes meant for him. The silver sliced through her skin, yet silence ruled her tongue. Blood wept from her wounds, yet she held her ground.

Dolphus recalled the way she swayed, panting softly. He felt his wolf lurch forward, desperate to ease her suffering, but her eyes warned him away.

He had said then, “If you let me, my family can protect you. We can arrange a different life for you.”

Her reply was cold, voice calm like water before a storm. “Those who are unwanted should keep a distance and walk their own path. That way, they won’t expect too much.”

She added, “Mr. Farrington, I hope you and your family stay out of my bus

    Lucian continued speaking, his voice low but sharp. "Drake, Elena’s heart has been filled with discontent. She even attempted to seduce you by drugging you, hoping to break up you and my sister. Ezra and Maya helped Elena plan this act. My sister, because of this, holds a grudge against you. She’s even thinking about leaving the country." Lucian leaned back slightly, but his words cut deeper than any claw. His voice carried under the moon’s watch. "Mr Drake, wasn’t it you who revealed Elena’s intimate pictures on that day? You threatened my sister that if she dared to leave, you would make Elena’s life unbearable. Otherwise, we would be scouring the world for my sister now." A cold night breeze swept through the air. It danced with Elena’s long hair, scattering it over her face. Her hair veiled her eyes like the mist of a full-moon hunt. Her emotions hid behind the strands, hard to read. Her fingers curled tight around her cell phone, her knuckles white, her veins raised like ridge

    Elena’s chest tightened as she stood silently beside Mrs Lyra. She had always dreaded this moment. Dreaded that Mrs Lyra would learn the truth about Drake’s amnesia. But now, the truth was out. All because of Jamil. At just fourteen, Jamil’s curiosity had unveiled secrets Elena fought hard to bury. And with Drake standing beside Cassandra, confessing his love so publicly, Mrs Lyra’s questions had begun. Two years ago, after Elena had slipped into her coma, everyone around Drake had silently erased her existence. All to protect him. Now, Mrs Lyra had returned to Glendale, clutching those same photos she once surrendered to flames. Hoping… perhaps foolishly… that they’d stir something in Drake’s mind. But Elena saw it all for what it was. Kindness. And pain. “I trust you, Mrs Lyra,” Elena whispered, steadying her voice as she placed a hand on the older woman’s trembling fingers. “Don’t worry. The police will investigate. The truth will come out.” Mrs Lyra’s lips quivered. Her wo

    After Elena transferred the medical expenses to Marcus, she didn't hesitate. Her thumb hovered briefly before pressing delete. Erasing his contact from her phone. This is a clean break. No more connections she didn’t need.Her eyes moved through her Facebook friends list, scrolling past names she barely recognized anymore. Mrs. Lyra. Jamil. Prof. Gaius. Then her finger stopped.Dolphus.His avatar stared back at her: a calm seascape painting. Curiosity flickered within her. She tapped.His profile was emptier than she expected. Not even a single status update. No pictures. No shared memories. Not even a stray comment. Just silence. She hesitated before typing.“Yesterday, your tie… I dirtied it. How much is it? I’ll transfer the money to you.”He had sacrificed it for her, ripping it apart to help stop her bleeding. She remembered the scent of the fabric, the warmth of his hand as he pressed it against her wound.But no sooner had the message been sent than her world jerked violently

    Drake remained there, motionless. His wolf shifted uneasily beneath his skin, moving back and forth, disturbed. He gazed at Elena’s innocent little face, Words fluttered behind her lips, unheard and unseen. His throat burned with tightening fear. His wolf snarled softly, prompting him to halt her, to speak up, whatever it might be. However, ultimately, he uttered nothing. “Goodbye.” Elena’s voice trembled, but she forced herself to meet his golden eyes. She turned, her spine straight, but her steps heavy as stones. Goodbye to her youth. Farewell, Drake. Her fragrance remained in the atmosphere. It gripped Drake’s awareness like a test he couldn’t ignore. A slow constriction bound his chest, thick with unease. He faltered, steadying himself with a firm hand to his side, as if touch could chase the pain. Ezra remained several steps away, his wolf calmed. He watched his Beta crumble silently. “Never did I believe you two would carry it this far.” He spoke under his breath, t

    "We have entirely cut off connections, just as everyone wished." Outside the hospital room, Drake's hand was balled up so tightly his nails almost pierced his skin. Teeth digging into his lower lip. Even with Amelia's calm tone, the disdain lingered in his bloodstream, unmanageable to overlook. The room held its silence as Ezra breathed out, tension uncoiling from his shoulders for the first time that morning. His wolf had been pacing beneath his skin, worried Elena had gone to the authorities purely to earn Drake's sympathy or attention. But her words made it clear that this wasn’t about Drake. It never was. Ezra adjusted his boots from where he was standing. His eyes softened as he observed Elena. Her form was fragile, but the bruises along her neck and collarbone whispered of quiet resilience.. “How about we withdraw the case?” Ezra's voice broke the silence, smooth but tentative. Elena’s gaze sharpened. Her silver-gray eyes locked onto him, steady as moonlight slicing t
