LOGINHelena’s POV Frustration had become my closest companion over the past few weeks. Every morning, I woke up hoping to see a message from Kael. Every night, I went to bed disappointed. My calls went unanswered, my texts stayed unread, and every hour that passed made me angrier. It was as if my husband had disappeared from the face of the earth. I couldn’t understand it. No matter how busy he was, he had never ignored me for this long before. Even when he was drowning in work, he always found a minute to reply. Now there was nothing. Not a single word. Not even one cold, emotionless message. It made my thoughts wander to the one person I hated more than anyone. Liena. Was he with her again? The thought made my wolf growl inside me. I clenched my jaw as I stared out the hospital window. If Kael was spending his time with that woman while I was left here alone, I swore I would never forgive either of them. She had already stolen enough from me. I refused to let her take my husband t
Liena’s POVThe housekeeper’s words stayed in my head long after the call ended.I sat on the edge of the bed with my phone still in my hand, staring at the dark screen. Her voice kept replaying inside my mind. They attended the mating ceremony. They know Helena is legally married to Alpha Kael. Every time I repeated those words, my chest grew tighter.So they knew.Kael’s parents believed Helena was his wife, yet Luna Elena still accepted me as her daughter. She still loved me without hesitation. She had never once made me feel unwanted, even after everything that had happened between Kael and me.That thought only made my heart ache more.I slowly placed my phone on the nightstand and rubbed my forehead. My emotions were all over the place. I wanted answers, but I also feared what those answers would bring. Right now, there was nothing I could do except wait for Luna Elena and Alpha Raymond to return.Maybe then I would finally understand everything. After changing into fresh clothe
Liena’s POV The next morning, I woke to an empty bed. For a few seconds, I stayed where I was, my eyes search around the bed, around the room for kael. The room felt strangely cold without another heartbeat nearby. The blanket beside me was already cool, telling me Kael had been gone for a while. I slowly sat up and looked around. His side of the room was empty. Just then, the bathroom door stood open, as if he had forgotten to shut it. No sound of running water. No movement either. Even his jacket was gone from the chair where he had thrown it the night before. Where is he? After everything that had happened last night, I wasn’t surprised he had left before I woke up. Maybe he needed space. Maybe he was avoiding me. Either way, I didn’t have the energy to wonder where he had gone. Whichever one it is, it was for the best. I reached for my phone on the bedside table. Almost the moment my fingers wrapped around it, it started ringing. A smile spread across my face before I even
Liena's POV I looked. It was the Supreme Alpha. A message lit the screen before Kael could even swipe it away. It’s a message,. “How is my Luna doing? And how is the painting project going?” A short line asking about the painting, about the contract, about progress he expected me to report on. I wasn’t in the mood to discuss that now so I only read and ignored the message. Just then, Kael’s phone rang almost immediately. He answered without stepping out of the room, without even lowering his voice enough to give me the courtesy of pretending I couldn't hear. "I'm in a meeting," he said, his voice flat, clipped, the kind of tone that gave nothing away. "Something important. I'll come by tomorrow." I couldn't hear what the caller said back, just the faint murmur of a voice against his ear. I didn't try to make it out but it sounded like Helena. I recognize that voice. I busied myself with the clasp of my bracelet, taking it off. giving my hands something to do that was
Chapter 57 Liena's POV After the meal, Grandfather stood up and stretched his arms with a satisfied smile. "Come with me, you too.” he said, waving a hand toward the stairs. "Let me show you the room. It has all the space you two will need." He led us up the wide staircase, talking the whole way about how he had the room prepared just for us, how he wanted us to feel comfortable during our stay. I nodded along, barely listening. My mind was still stuck on why Kael had followed me here. Is he stalking me? When we reached the door, Grandfather pushed it open and gestured inside with pride. The room was large, with a nice fireplace already lit and a big bed covered in soft blankets. It smelled fresh and newly prepared. "Rest well you too," Grandfather said, patting Kael on the shoulder. "We will talk better in the morning" Then he turned and walked back down the hallway, his footsteps fading until the house grew quiet again. The moment the door clicked shut behind him, the air in
Liena’s POV I stood there for a few seconds, staring at the message on my screen. My fingers tightened around my phone as another vibration followed almost immediately. I frowned and unlocked it again, expecting another question. Instead, my eyes landed on a short message that made my heart skip a beat. It was from the same unknown number. “I’m at the door.” Says the message. I slowly lifted my head toward the front entrance of Grandfather’s estate. Before I could even process the message, the front door opened. My breathing became uneven as Kael stepped inside the house like he belonged there. He looked exactly the way I remembered him, tall, composed, and expressionless. His wolf’s scent reached me before he did as I immediately pushed that feeling of warmth aside and forced myself to remain calm. “My boy!” Grandfather’s cheerful voice filled the room before I could say a single word. He walked toward Kael with a wide smile and wrapped him in a warm embrace. Kael returned
Kael POV The door to Helena’s bedroom clicked shut behind us as I tightened my hold on her while she still wrapped her legs around my waist. Her arms slipped around my neck, and before I could say a word, her lips found mine again. The kiss was warm, familiar, and full of the longing that always
Liena’s POV When I opened my eyes again, the first thing I saw was a white ceiling and walls above me. For several seconds, I simply stared at it without moving. Everything felt strange. My body felt heavy, and my head hurt like someone had hit me with a stone. A faint smell of medicine filled th
Leina’s POVKael leaned closer to Helena, his expression calm and gentle.“I’m sorry you had to see her earlier,” he said softly while touching her hand across the table. “She showed up unexpectedly. I didn’t plan for that.”His voice was warm. The exact same soft voice he used on me for years.“Bu
Leina’s POVAs if nothing had happened, Kael’s expression quickly softened.“My Luna…” he called gently while walking toward me. Like I hadn’t just caught him holding another woman.“Sweetheart…” he said again, smiling warmly. The same smile that used to melt my heart every single time. “Happy anni
