Bound by His Mark, Freed by His Betrayal Chapter 51
Horace pov.After I dropped her off at home, I drove to the creek. With a lot on my mind, I didn’t want to be around anyone for fear of doing something hurtful.But as I stood there. I realized I may have already crossed that line with Elena with my earlier actions.But at that moment, I couldn’t help it.“It’s been three years, Elaine.” I breathed.And I knew I should move on already. In fact, I wanted to. With Elena. She was the perfect fit for me.Completed me in ways I never even knew about before. And even though things were not yet official with Michael, I wanted to make her mine for real.Not the fake public show thing but the real thing.However, I couldn’t deny that Michael bringing up Elaine in such a way tugged something hard at my chest.And it led me momentarily to do the one thing I shouldn’t even dare think of.Hurt Elena.I took a deep breath and walked back to my car.I had to apologize, I had to make things right.When I got back to the house, knowing she was already

Elena’s pov.“Are you okay?” Micheal asked Ashanti in the most sorry excuse of the word caring. Probably because he was staring back at me the whole time like he was scared of checking on his wife in his presence.“I’m not.” She barked then looked me dead in the eye, “Did you do this on purpose, Elena? You knew I was about to walk past, and somehow your leg was there? That was no mistake.” She yelled at the top of her lungs, perhaps looking to draw attention.The restaurant was one of the most exquisite in the crimson moon, so only people of such caliber came there, and they didn't act the way our poor actress was acting.I put my hand on my chest in feigned surprise, “My goodness, why ever would you think this low of me, Ashanti? We are friends, remember?”“Friends, so you want to swear that you didn’t trip on purpose.” She sneered, still on the floor.She really needed attention, but unfortunately for her, people didn't seem to be buying it.“Oh my goodness, all she has to do is get

Elena’s povWe sat opposite each other in the sushi restaurant I had suggested.It was all silent as we awaited our orders until Horace’s voice broke out.“So how’s treating your cousin? How’s the almost new dad fairing?”His nose flared like he wanted to say something completely stupid but when he opened his mouth, “Fine, alpha. We are doing very well.” Was all that came out.“Though I’d like to understand the reason for this invitation.”Horace turned to me, as if giving me the floor to speak, and speak I did. “Well, I arranged the meet-up. So we could all talk and come to some agreement.”The chef came out with our food, serving it gently across the table.When it was time for the drinks to be poured, Ashanti held the chef’s hand back from pouring into her glass.“You see, I’m pregnant, for my husband here.” Her hand brushed Michael’s shoulder. “So I don’t do alcohol. You know, don’t need to risk a miscarriage, and I heard once it happens the first time, there’s a high chance of it

Horace’s pov.“You’re okay, you've been kind of silent ever since we dropped that woman off,” I asked her as we had lunch in the dining room.“I’m fine… I'm actually fine. She repeated absentmindedly if she still had something on her mind.I raised a brow. “Doesn’t seem like it.”She sat up. “Well, you’re right. So I’m having this crazy thought.”“Okay, then share it.”She shook her hands in disagreement. “No, at least until I confirm it. I can’t actually act on it.”A little surprising, but “o—Kay. So how do you intend to do this? Do you need my help?”“Actually, I do. And I know it might sound sort of off, but stay with me, okay.”“Yes, ma’am,” I replied with all seriousness, earning a slight chuckle from her.“Alright, so tomorrow night, let’s invite Michael and Ashanti out for dinner. A truce.”I dropped my fork immediately. A truce, what does that mean? Turning to her, I asked, “A truce? I mean, how would that work?”She shook her head, “Oh, I know what you’re thinking, but I pro

Elena‘s pov.“What?” Horace and I said in unison.“How did that happen?” He added.Logan let out another heavy sigh. “Someone ended him last night. Someone who probably knew we were coming.”“Shit,” Horace mumbled, pacing back and forth.“Just calm down.” I was about to pat his back when I suddenly held my hand back.He gave me a look as if he wasn’t surprised.And immediately, my mind flashed to the craziness I had spilled in the car.Fuck. Just great.I turned back to Logan. “We were so close to finding the truth. This is such a major setback.“Yes, it is, ma’am.”I stared at him longer than usual. Everyone was now seeming like a suspect. “How did you even manage to find out his address? I mean I know it’s your job and all, but this place looks so rote, it takes great skill to really catch it.”He smiled proudly, but there was no hint of hiding anything in his demeanor.“Well, I wish I could take all the credit, ma’am, but unfortunately, that’s now possible. I was only able to quick

Horace’s pov.“That was Logan, said he just found one of the impostors’ addresses,” I said, standing with my hands in my pockets.Her eyes shot up to me in curiosity. “Hey, baby, mama and papa will come play with you later, okay?” She said to Ethan before turning to the maid, “Could you take him upstairs, please?”“Yes, ma’am.”After they left the room, she turned her attention to me, “Really?”“Yup. Dr John Brownson. I remember his face clearly. He was one of the doctors who spent a lot of time here and took a lot of my money in the name of treatments, also.”“Oh my goodness. What an evil man. Well, that’s a good thing. You can finally confront him and maybe also get a few answers out of him.”“Oh, that’s what I plan on doing.” I sat beside her as my jaw tightened in anger. My mind is swirling around the situation all over again.Those bastards had the audacity to lie to and risk my son's health in their quest for some quick cash. By the time I’m done with them, they’ll never remain
