All Chapters of The Rejected Luna，The Hidden Heiress: Chapter 171 - Chapter 180

Victor's POV I ran like my life depended on it, like the world was ending, like nothing else existed except getting to Selene.Branches whipped across my face, leaving stinging cuts on my cheeks and arms. Thorns tore at my clothes, ripping the fabric. My boots pounded against the forest floor, crushing leaves and snapping twigs.I didn't slow down. I didn't even feel the pain.Through the bond, I could sense her presence. It was faint, weakening.

Selene's POV The door behind me suddenly opened, but I didn't turn around, l didn't take my eyes off Victor's face."Lady Selene," Abel's voice was quiet. "We need to talk."“Not now.”"Yes, now," he insisted. "Please."
