Semua Bab Bound by His Mark, Freed by His Betrayal: Bab 231 - Bab 240

Elena’s POVI sent for Nora that afternoon, hoping to tighten the plot of what I had started. She arrived quickly, head bowed, and hands folded neatly in front of her, looking all respectful as she always did.The perfect picture of obedience.“Luna, you sent for me.”“Oh yes, I did. Please could you…” I began, sinking deeper into the couch, my shoulders sagging, and my breath running unevenly.Her eyes opened, which was good because it meant my message was passing across the exact way I wanted it to.“Please could you close the door and come closer?”She did. She shot the door before walking closer towards me.“I’m here, Luna.” I pressed my hand to my stomach and gave an exaggerated wince, enough to draw the attention I wanted.“You do not look well. Do I call the healer or a doctor from one of the hospitals?”Although she tried to sound as if she cared, or maybe it was just my personal conviction as I already had suspicions about her, but her tone gave something else off. Somethi

Assistant’s POVI made sure to kiss the girl before me so well that it would push Elena straight to a point of madness. Just where I wanted her to be. That crazy place where the moment she laid her eyes on her silly husband, she would lung at him.I wasn’t stupid, so I knew very well how clever Elena was. How clever she had always been.And that was precisely where my next plan took hold. I didn’t have much time. And I wasn’t about to sit around waiting for whatever silly plans Vivienne had. After work, I had plans of my own for her as well.I needed to get rid of the Alpha as soon as possible, and I knew that one of the most successful ways to do that was to cause a rift between me and Elena.Everybody knew how obsessed he was with her, and if they were to start having serious marital issues, I knew it would affect him deeply and, in turn, work out for my favour.Nora smirked softly beside me, her head tilted as we watched Elena from afar, basking in the horror that was spread across

Horace’s POVI knew something was wrong the moment I walked in, but I didn’t think much of it at first.Usually, when I walked in, my wife would stretch her face into a wide smile or get up and show herself around me, but this time around, she didn’t even seem to care that someone had walked into the room.Initially, I thought it was because I returned a bit late, which I did because I had a lot of inspections to cover and it ran longer than I had planned. But all the while, I was so eager to come back and see my family. To see her. To felt her warmth wrapped around me as she welcomed me back. To press my palm onto her belly, whispering whatever came to mind to my child.But none of that happened.Instead, when I reached for her, she stiffened immediately as if my hands had become poison to her skin.It was clear, sharp, and hard to digest or even understand.“Elena, what is it?” I asked her immediately, thinking it was some sort of joke at first.She ignored me. She wouldn’t even loo

Assistants POVAs I watched the brawl unfold before me, I couldn’t contain the excitement I felt. It was exactly as I planned, exactly as I designed it, and to see it come to life right before my eyes made me feel a rush of emotions.I maintained my seat at the dining table, pretending to be focusing on my meal, but all the while, my eyes were on the arguing couple who were filled with fury for one another.Beautiful. I thought to myself, exhaling slowly in deep satisfaction.When I first came across the mask, I didn’t believe in its effectiveness, but having used it on myself for multiple occasions, and even for Monica, there was no denying it.But even if I had any more doubts, the showdown going on in front of me told the tale of the flawless effect of the mask.It gave me everything I wanted. His face, posture, and all that was left to perfect the work was his scent. And getting that wasn’t difficult at all because I had Nora…or Monica— whatever you wanted to call my creation. She

Horace’s POVI stared at her as she walked away, meeting Victor downstairs and collecting the documents from him.How could she accuse me of trying to push her down the staircase?Why would Elena even dare to think I would ever do something like that to her?Confusion swirled through me like a wildfire.I didn’t want to see her at that point, so I waited for her car to leave the premises before I made my way out. My mood was already soiled by happy behavior and accusations, and I really didn’t have the strength to leave the house, but I had no choice. I had an important meeting to catch up with.Submit my way down the stairs and out of the main house, my steps were fast and uneven as my heart pounded hard against my chest. Elena’s accusations were all I could think about.How did we even get to that point where we now accuse each other of plotting murder against one another?As soon as I got outside, Victor ran up to me, bowing deeply.“Alpha, I’m sorry about what happened inside.
