All Chapters of The Forbidden Second Marriage. : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

In the den of science, Professor Gauis stripped the rubber from his hands. He looked over the circle of students, each one tense, waiting for him to speak. “When the moon turns in April,” the professor’s voice growled deep, “I have been summoned to a great council, a gathering of minds. It will last nearly half a month. I must take two of you with me. Gwen must remain here to guard the experiments, so the rest of you, choose two names. Give me your decision after the New Year. And… there is something more I must say.” The room grew still. Even the sound of the clock on the wall felt heavy. Professor Gauis expression darkened as he added, “Elena’s foster mother has passed on to the ancestors. When Elena returns, watch over her. Protect her as one of our own.” No one spoke. The silence was thick. By afternoon, Gwen, Calista, and Aria were already on their phones, voices hushed yet urgent as they reached out to Elena. Each of them was restless, wanting to make sure their packmat

It's quite obvious to everyone that the Monroe family’s plan was as cruel as it was simple. They had gathered to shred Elena's name. To them, destroying a girl’s reputation was nothing more than a hunt in the dark. Even if the truth surfaced, the offender could mutter a careless apology, and the crowd would forgive, forgetting the damages that they might have caused the person. What made their claws sink deeper was the image now roaming through the airwaves: Elena caught in a photo beside Drake. To the Monroes, this was not just proof, it was firewood thrown into an already blazing fire.Azra lowered herself to the ground with a heavy thud, her hands striking her legs as tears streaked down her face. “When Elena left our den, she was pure!” she cried, “Look at what they have turned her into. A shameless, filthy girl! She is a student at the academy, yet she walks like one without honor. Her face is plastered everywhere!”“When we entered the school, we heard whispers in every corne

Elena’s eyes glistened under the harsh studio lights. The heated discussions around her name rolled across every pack territory and human city. She had stepped onto the show with one purpose. She wanted to use its influence to demand heavier punishment for those who traded lives in the shadows, those who thought human trafficking was a game of power and profit.Her thoughts of determination had been sharp for years. Now the world was seeing it.Clips flashed across the screens and over the internet. Everyone watched her old speeches, as she called for attention to the stolen ones. Every award she had accepted since her youth carried the same message. Every word was now dug up, replayed and shared again Others began to dig deeper, clawing through the past. Since middle school, Elena had given away her prize money. She had poured it into the foundation that hunted the lost, A foundation that sought to drag traffickers into the light. Her actions proved she was not here for performance.

Several messages burst into Elena’s phone, vibrating on the desk like it was alive. She dragged her hand over it, the faint glow flashing against her eyes. The lab group chat was blowing up.Gwen's messages lined the screen one after another.Gwen: I’m going to be a dad!Gwen: Everyone, wake up! Congratulate me! I’m going to be a dad!More messages poured in, rolling like a pack howl during a full moon.John: Just because you’re going to be a dad doesn’t mean we are. It’s too early… don’t go wild in the group chat.Ashley: Calista is pregnant?! Congratulations to Calista and you. When are you calling us for a drink? We’re all waiting to drink to it!Gwen: Taking half a day off today to get the certificates. Don’t worry, you’ll all have your drinks soon!Elena: Congratulations Gwen.Elena’s fingers trembled as she hit send. The warmth of the group’s joy didn’t reach her chest. The messages blurred, words swimming across the screen.Her mind clawed backward, dragging her to that night w

But he could not ask his friends or childhood brothers.The moment he opened his mouth, the pack would know that some of his lost memories had returned.Cassandra already carried a shadow in her heart because of his past bond with Elena. If she sensed even the slightest spark of his memory coming back, that shadow would grow into claws. He could not push her deeper into doubt.Far from that turmoil, Elena tried to keep her own world steady. She had left California University earlier, forcing her emotions to calm before she went to pick up Jamil.When he saw him, her lips curved into a smile. She asked softly, “How was school today?”Jamil’s hands moved as he gestured, his eyes shining. “Very good. I like my classmates. They take good care of me. I feel a little embarrassed.”“That is good.” Elena reached down and ruffled his hair.Jamil’s face grew serious. He nodded and then signed to her, “Elena, I am very happy that you transferred me to the new school. Our life will get better lat
