Chapter 15

Author: Bubbles
[Clara's POV]

Callum caught up with me as soon as we left the cafe. That was when I remembered Arthur had punched him earlier. I quickly flagged down a cab and took him straight to the hospital to get checked out.

"There's a minor fracture on the nose bridge, but it's already healing," the doctor said.

Only then did I finally relax a little, though I still couldn't shake the guilt.

Callum sighed all of a sudden.

I looked at him anxiously. "What is it? Does it hurt somewhere?"

    [Clara's POV]"Maybe you should go home tonight," Callum said before leaving, his expression still edged with concern. "I don't feel great about you staying here alone."After starting school, I'd rented a small studio near campus for convenience and usually stayed there.A lot had happened today, but I didn't want my parents to worry, so I hadn't told them anything yet."It's fine," I reassured him. "The door is solid, and there are surveillance cameras outside. I won't go out tonight. Don't worry. I don't want to go home. I just want some alone time.""Alright," he said, no longer trying to change my mind. "Call me right away if anything happens."I nodded, saw him off, closed the door, and let out a long breath.The incident had scared me badly, but once the shock settled, what I felt more than anything else was exhaustion.I took a hot bath and went to bed."Clara!"In my haze, I heard Arthur shouting my name. Even in my sleep, I couldn't help but frown.He was relentles

    Callum was fast. No matter how hard I pushed myself, I was still a step behind.When I reached the abandoned factory, he was already holding Clara tightly in his arms.Once again, I was too late.I instinctively clenched my fists and scanned the surroundings.A middle-aged werewolf was sprawled on the ground nearby, groaning in pain, and next to him was Elsa.She looked at me in panic. "Arthur, I can explain!"I crouched down and seized the middle-aged werewolf by the throat."What were you doing here?" I said coldly. "Tell me the truth."My fingers tightened as I spoke.The middle-aged werewolf screamed, "Alpha Arthur! Please let me go! I haven't done anything yet! It was her! That she-wolf made me do it. She told me to assault her and record everything. She promised me a large sum afterward!"I smiled after hearing that, patted his face, and pointed at Elsa."How much did she offer you? Do it to her instead. Record it, and I'll pay you double."The werewolf hesitated and

    [Arthur's POV]I had no idea how long I sat there in the cafe. It wasn't until the sky outside started to dim that I finally shifted my stiff body and stood up.The moment I did, my phone rang. It was Elsa.I frowned and rejected the call, but shortly after, she called again.I answered, my voice flat. "What do you want?"Her voice on the other end was soft and fragile, as if she'd just been crying. "Arthur, where are you? Can we meet?"In the past, hearing her voice would've stirred some sympathy in me. But now that I knew what she was really like, all I felt was irritation."I'm busy. Don't contact me again," I said coldly. "I'll never forgive you for what you did to Clara.""Don't say that," Elsa sobbed. "Arthur, don't treat me like this. You said you loved me.""I never loved you," I said after taking a breath. "I was only putting on an act so Clara would give up on me. But I regret it. I never should've done that. I never should've given you the chance to hurt her. I fail

    While my mind was still hazy, a bucket of ice water was dumped over my head.I jolted awake, only to realize that my hands and feet were tied up, and there was a wad of cloth stuffed in my mouth so I couldn't make a sound.Before I could even figure out what was going on, a familiar figure appeared in front of me.It was Elsa. What was she doing here?Elsa walked up and yanked the cloth out of my mouth. Her face was twisted with hatred as she gritted out, "Clara, I finally have you exactly where I want you."I suppressed the wave of panic welling up in me and tried to keep myself calm. "What do you want? We can talk this out. You don't have to do this.""What do I want?"Elsa flashed a vicious smile. "Because of you, Arthur rejected me in public. I'm ruined. I have nowhere to go now. What do you think I want? Can you make Arthur come back to me? Can you fix my reputation? I have nothing left, Clara. Nothing at all!"I thought of what Arthur had said when he showed up yesterday,

"What is it? Does it hurt somewhere?""What if my nose collapses?"Callum looked a little upset as he spoke. "Then I'll be ugly, and no one will like me."His tone was so dramatic that I couldn't help laughing.Callum laughed, too.On the way back, he asked casually, "So, was that your destined mate?"I lowered my head and nudged a small stone along the road with my shoe. After a while, I said, "He used to be. Before I left, I went to the priestess and had the mate bond broken."Callum's tone immediately lightened. "That makes sense. Why k

    [Arthur's POV]The flicker of irritation that crossed Clara's eyes made my confidence waver for the first time.She really was different now.Even so, I said what I had come to say, my tone carrying a hope I hadn't even realized was there. "I've already called off the bonding ceremony with Elsa. Now, can you come home with me?"Clara frowned. "You canceled the bonding ceremony? Why?"My eyes lit up. She didn't know yet. That explained her coldness. As long as she knew I had publicly humiliated Elsa and ended the marking ceremony for her sake, she would forgive me."Because she framed you for stealing her bonding ring. I know everything now," I said seriously. "I called off the marking ceremony in front of everyone. She's paid the price she deserved. Clara, aren't you satisfied now?"I watched her closely, waiting for her to react the way she always used to, to rush into my arms and come home with me.She didn't."Alpha Arthur."That distant form of address made my heart skip
