Chapter 41: Consequences and Confessions

(God's POV)

Chief Morrison emerged from his office with a grave expression. His weathered face showed the weight of years

dealing with pack politics and territorial disputes.

He signaled to the younger officers to step inside first. The conversation ahead would require careful

handling.

As chief of the Northern Territory Pack Enforcement Division, he had seen many cases. But this one involved

powers far beyond what the Harrison family could comprehend.

The parents of the pepper spray attacker exchanged confused glances. They remained oblivious to the gravity of

their situation.

Mrs. Harrison questioned Chief Morrison's earlier words. Her voice rose as she reminded him of past favors

and her son’s mental condition.

“Chief Morrison, you've always helped us before,” she said defiantly. “My son is mentally ill. That should

excuse his actions like it always has.”

Chief Morrison's face darkened with visible anger. “I've always helped you cover up your son’s crimes, but this

tis different!”

His voice carried a warning that made the other officers step back. “Your son provoked someone he shouldn't

have. My own position as chief is at stake if | dare to intervene.”

Mrs. Harrison remained defiant despite his obvious fear. “Who could my son have possibly offended that

threatens even your authority?”

Chief Morrison’s exasperation reached its peak. “The Blackwood family! He attacked the mate of Alpha

Marcus Blackwood!”

He leaned forward, his voice dropping to a dangerous whisper. “I'm warning you against any further provocation

of the most powerful Alpha lineage in the Northern Territory.”

Mrs. Harrison was stunned into complete silence. The catastrophic gravity of their situation finally dawned

on her.

(Elena’s POV)

As night fell, | awoke in my recovery ward bed. A familiar presence sat besidein the dim moonlight.

| recognized Marcus's imposing silhouette immediately. His golden eyes glowed faintly in the darkness,

“Why didn’t you informabout your hospitalization?” he questioned.

| retorted without thinking. “Would it make any difference given your obvious priorities?”

| expressed genuine surprise at his presence. “I'm shocked you're here when Sophia needs your attention.

Marcus looked irritated by my formal tone. “Why do you have to be so sarcastic with me?

remember?”

An uncomfortable silence filled the recovery room. The air was heavy with unspoken tensions and the lingering

scent of moonlight herbs used for my healing.

| attempted to rest, turning my back to Marcus. But | could feel his intense Alpha gaze burning into me.

Finally, he rose from the chair. Instead of leaving as expected, he climbed into my narrow hospital bed.

His powerful arms embraced my smaller form. | was shocked by his boldness.

“Have you lost your mind?” | demanded.

Marcus calmly stated his intention. “I just want to sleep beside my mate.”

| was incredulous. “Do you plan to stay the entire night in the healing institute?”

He confirmed his intention. His unexpected behavior leftspeechless.

“Why?” | asked with genuine confusion.

| recalled his past indifference during my previous illnesses and injuries. He had never once visited my

bedside before.

Marcus's golden eyes were unfathomable in the moonlight. “I don’t understand my own motivations.”

He acknowledged something that surprised me. “But | recognize your growing impact onthrough our mate

bond.”

He then asked a question that made my heart skip. “Have we met before our arranged mating ceremony?”

My mind flashed back to Shadowpeak Mountain eleven years ago. We were both kidnap victims who had

comforted each other during our darkest hours.

| remembered every detail vividly. His scared young face, his protective instincts even as a child.

But he had completely forgotten our first meeting. The realization stung more than | expected.

“No,” | denied. “We never met before our mating arrangement.”

Marcus was skeptical of my response. He pressedfurther, grabbing my chin with firm fingers.

He forcedto meet his penetrating gaze. | maintained my composure despite the painful memories.

“If we had truly met before,” | countered, “someone as memorable as an Alpha heir wouldn’t have forgotten

such an encounter.”

| told him to leave my bed. “Take the separate caregiver's bed if you wish to stay in the room.”

Marcus refused outright. “I dislike that uncomfortable narrow cot designed for visitors.”

As | tried to get up and move away from him, he pulledback. His Alpha strength caused us both to fall

together on the small hospital bed

Our faces were mere inches apart. His overwhelming presence and masculine scent enveloped my senses

I instinctively licked my dry lips/ It was a nervous gesture that didn’t go unnoticed.

Marcus's golden eyes darkened with desire. His thumb gently traced the curve of my lips as our mate bond

hummed with unexpected Intimacy.

(Pack Nurse Rachel's POV)

| arrived for a routine evening check on the recovery ward patients. | stumbled upon an intimate scene that

madefreeze in the doorway.

| wanted to interrupt and maintain proper medical protocols. But | realized | was witnessing Alpha Marcus

Blackwood and Luna Elena in a private moment.

to my friend in the neurosurgery department.

Then | hurried back to the healer’s station. | had tic news to share about the supposedly distant Alpha

and Elena being intimate behind closed doors.

(Elena’s POV)

| snapped out of my daze and pushed Marcus away with both hands. “This is inappropriate while I'm a patient

recovering from an attack.”

Marcus regained his usual cold Alpha demeanor. He agreed with my assessment and moved to the

uncomfortable caregiver's bed across the room.

| lay down on my side, unable to sleep. My mind raced with confusion and unanswered questions about

Marcus's sudden change in behavior.

What were his true intentions toward our mate bond? | couldnt understand his mixed signals.

(Sophia’s POV)

Marcus's expensive suit in the dim hospital lighting.

Rage consumedcompletely. Elena had somehow won Marcus over despite all my carefully orchestrated

plans to drive them apart.

| smashed a crystal vase against my apartment wall in a fit of jealous fury. The sound of shattering glass

echoed through the rooms.

Oliver cowered in his bedroom, trembling at my violent outburst. He was too afraid to even cry as he listened

to my destructive tantrum.
