Selene's POV

The water was warm, yet it did nothing to comfort me. I just stood under the shower, arms wrapped tightly around myself, letting the water wash down my body like it could rinse off the memory. But it couldn’t.

Every drop that touched my skin felt like a reminder—of the way he held me, of how his lips melted into mine like he still had the right.

My wolf stirred uneasily. She was quiet and confused. Not angry. Not exactly. Just... empty. I wanted her to rage. I wanted her to rise up and scream that we had been disrespected. But she didn’t. She curled up inside me like a wounded animal, not sure if she should trust the scent that still clung to our skin.

And that scared me more than anything because if she didn’t know how to feel about Victor... what chance did I have?

I covered my face with both hands, trying to breathe, but the water kept pouring and the memory kept flashing.

That kiss wasn’t just desperate—it was familiar. Like my body had already forgiven him before

    Selene's POV I stared at the window for a moment, watching the trees swaying in the wind outside. For the first time in days, I actually felt... lighter. The burden I had been dragging around since I heard about the vote, since I had looked Victor in the eye and realized he didn’t see me at all—it all faded just a little.“You really think Ethan agreed just like that?” I asked, rubbing small circles over my belly.

    Selene's POV The second I stepped into the cabin, I kicked the damn door shut with the back of my heel. My feet were screaming, my head was pounding, and I could still taste the expensive disappointment from that so-called dinner.I yanked off my heels like they had insulted me and flung them into the corner. Leena peeked her head out from the kitchen, looking surprised. “You’re back early.”

    Victor's POV I watched her storm off like I meant nothing, and all I could do was stand there like a damn statue.Selene didn’t even look back. Not once.And maybe that was what hurt the most.After paying the bill, more out of habit than awareness, I drove home

  • The Rejected Luna,The Hidden Heiress   Chapter 126

    Selene's POV Victor didn’t answer my question right away. Instead, he started tapping his fingers lightly on the table, steady and slow. I knew that habit. He used to do it back when we were still together, when he was thinking hard or not sure of what to say.That little sound filled the space between us, louder than the clinking plates and soft music around us.“I don’t believe he would ever har

    Selene's POV “Yes,” Elara whispered. “Just don’t let him come. Please.”“Elara, you were never forced to be here. You had choices.”“I didn’t know it would turn out like this,” she choked. “I didn’t expect you to find out about my past. I thought I had time. I thought…” She broke off, grabbing both my hands now, holding on like she was drowning. “Please, Selene. Please. I’ll apologize for everything. For what I did. What I said. All of it. Just don’t let him see me.”“Why are you so afraid of him showing up, though?” I asked, tilting my head.“Because he knows me. The real me. I can’t fake anything with him. If he sees me here, like this, he’ll know everything.”“You mean the lies? The games? The way you smiled in Victor’s arms while helping Dimitri stab me in the back?”“I don’t have feelings for Victor,” she said fast. “I swear. I am only staying near him to survive. I never loved him.”I raised an eyebrow. “So what? That makes everything okay now?”“No, but I’m telling you the tru

    Selene's POV After a long pause, the host slowly looked around the hall again. His eyes moved from elder to elder, then to the warriors, and finally back to Victor.“Very well,” he said at last, this time with more strength in his voice. “If there are no further objections or information to be shared, we will proceed with the vote.”I straightened in my seat, trying to control my breathing as the host continued, “One by one, you will all step forward to cast your vote.”The room buzzed with activity as the council members began to rise and make their way to the silver ballot box at the center of the hall. I watched every single one of them. Some kept their eyes down. Others looked straight ahead, their faces giving away nothing.I wanted to believe that they had listened. That they had read the reports with open minds. That my voice had mattered.Victor didn’t speak. He just stood tall beside me with his arms folded. His expression was blank, but his energy was… controlled and Alpha-
