Chapter 11 The Marking Ceremony

Damian's POVA wave of irritation rose in me.Twice in a single day, I'd thought of Elena.It was absurd beyond words. The woman had been gone five whole years.Not a word from her in all that time. A cripple without even a wolf, alone out there — she had to be living at the bottom rung of the world, scraping by, dirt-poor and worn down.Maybe she wore some clunky, ugly black-framed glasses to get by, waiting tables in a run-down diner. Or maybe she'd long since married some mediocre, useless man, haggling over a few dollars on the bills.There was no way she was the dazzling principal ballerina on that stage."Who is she?" I turned and asked Jason behind me coldly.Jason leaned in and answered respectfully. "Alpha, that's the Blackstone Alpha's own sister. Her stage name is Lyra. She's the most famous dancer in the world right now."The sister of the Blackstone Alpha. Lyra.My heart dropped like a stone, and my racing pulse finally went still.So it wasn't her after all.I was patheti

Chapter 12 Come Invite Me Yourself

Elena's POVThe thunderous cheers nearly blew the roof off the Frostridge Grand Theater.I lifted my black skirt, finished the final bow with grace, and turned to walk off the stage.The whole audience was on its feet, screaming the name "Lyra."The moment I reached backstage, reps and managers from every big company had already jammed the passage, shoving countless sky-high offers at me. I didn't glance at a single one. I had my bodyguards block them all.Until a man in a silver-grey suit planted himself at my dressing room door.Jason. Damian's most trusted Beta."Miss Lyra, good evening." Jason held out a gilded invitation, confident. "I represent the Hale Group. We'd be honored to have you as our global brand ambassador for the coming quarter. As for compensation, the Hale Group will give you a number that's among the highest in the world."I stopped. Behind my sunglasses, I studied the invitation in his hand.Then I smiled. I turned it over once, ran a fingertip along the gilded e

Chapter 13 She Is Back

Damian's POVI shoved open the car door and strode toward the main house of the estate.Through the huge glass wall of the living room, I saw a woman's back from a distance.A blurry memory surged up in my mind.A little girl running across the estate's lawn, chasing right behind me, calling out "Big brother! Big brother!" I tried to see the young girl's face clearly, but a sharp pain stabbed through my skull.Then I saw it — it was Vera's face.Looking at that small figure, I smiled without realizing.But the thought of Elena being back filled me with irritation and disgust.She'd been gone from this estate five whole years.The day she left, I told my father she'd gotten pregnant with my child by accident, but miscarried on the way out, and left because her heart had died completely.For five years, my father threw every resource the pack had into finding her, and turned up nothing.Until this morning, when he finally gave up the pointless search.He formally relented, and agreed to

Chapter 14 Dissolving The Mate Contract

Damian's POVThe hall went utterly quiet. My mother, Morgana, let out a long breath at once, her tense shoulders dropping, open relief on her face.I clenched my fists, jaw locked hard.This had to be her new game — playing hard to get.She vanished five years, came back today with this hardline posture, dissolved the contract in public, all to enrage me and pull my attention back."Daddy Odric, thank you for taking me in back then." Elena looked at my father, polite but distant to the bone. "But I've joined Blackstone Pack now, and I'm a public figure. I'd rather the outside world stop bringing up that time I lived here on charity."The pack's Elders traded looks.They stared, stunned, at this utterly transformed woman with the powerful presence — more stunned still that she was the one proposing to sever ties with the Alpha of Frostridge Pack."She's just playing hard to get," a few Elders murmured to each other in low voices. "How could she really give up the Luna position?"My fath

Chapter 15 A Blank Slate of Five Years

Damian's POVWhy did my wolf care so much about her? Just because she was our fated mate?But plenty of people never end up with their fated mates.Plenty reject the fated bond to be with the one they truly love. Why was my wolf so fixated?Or had Elena done something to my wolf?I was uneasy.I opened a mind-link to Jason."Look into everything that's happened to Elena these five years."Half an hour later, back in my office, Jason handed me a report."Alpha." His voice was full of frustration and confusion. "I put every intelligence channel we have on Elena's last five years. But the first four years are a total blank. Someone used enormous resources and methods to deliberately wipe out every trace of her life out there. She's shielded without a single crack. I couldn't find anything."My tapping fingers stopped dead.Shielded? Who was shielding her? Who had the power to erase a person's tracks this cleanly, right under my nose?"What about this past year?" I demanded coldly."Only t

Chapter 16 A Veneer of Dignity

Elena's POVMatthews had booked the entire top-floor luxury ballroom. He'd made a point of telling me to come dressed to the nines tonight.In a couture red gown, I watched Matthews coldly as he strutted and bragged around that gilded hall.The point of this party couldn't be more obvious: he wanted to use this win to flaunt, in front of every tycoon in the North, that he'd finally beaten Damian for once.And I knew exactly what that filthy want in his eyes was when he looked at me.But my clutch already held a high-strength defensive spray. The moment he crossed a line, I'd put him straight in the hospital.What I never expected was that Damian actually came.Knowing him, a man arrogant to the marrow, there was no way he'd lower himself to a petty little party thrown specifically to spite him.The instant he stepped into the hall, the air around us seemed to drop a few degrees.He wasn't in formal wear — just a sharply cut black shirt and trousers, collar slightly open, a glass of cha

Chapter 17 None of Your Business

Elena's POVGlass after glass of red wine went down my throat. If I hadn't taken a high-strength sober-up dose in advance, I'd have been out cold in that lavish ballroom by now.I faked unsteady steps, let my body tip sideways out of control.Matthews's fat, greasy hands caught my waist at once, half-dragging, half-carrying me into the top-floor presidential suite.Click. The lock turned.I leaned against the wall, eyes lowered, but my fingers calmly flipped the switches on the hidden camera and recorder in my clutch.Everything Matthews had, he owed to his wife's family.If I recorded proof of him trying to assault me tonight, I could drop the video straight in front of his wife's family.It would force him to pay the sky-high endorsement fee in full, and tear up the contract like a good boy, with his reputation in ruins."Matthews…" I slurred, playing drunk, baiting him. "My head's spinning. Did you put something in that last glass?"Matthews yanked his tie loose, grinning, lewd and

Chapter 18 Someone Else's Sister

Third PersonKane stood in his black coat, travel-worn, his face dark as a storm.Behind him came Elena's assistant, Ethan. Ethan had an obvious bruise on his forehead, clearly just come around from being knocked out, panic all over his face, certain something had happened to Elena.The moment Elena saw Kane, guilt flooded her.Her private plan — teaming with Matthews to film him and extort the sky-high endorsement fee — had been kept from Kane entirely.She'd meant to bank a huge windfall and hand Kane a surprise.But now it was fully out of control. Ethan, knocked out by Matthews's men, had woken to find her gone and had obviously spilled the whole thing to Kane.Damian stood in the middle of the room, watching Kane cold-eyed at the door. He'd met the new Alpha of Blackstone Pack a few times at major business summits.Jason's dossier said Elena stayed in Kane's pack as his sister.Damian had always been sure that, given Kane's ruthlessness — a man who'd risen over the corpses of his

Chapter 19 Leave Him

Elena's POV"How much do you owe him? I'll pay it. Leave him."Hearing Damian say that, standing there in the corridor, I felt nothing but a vast pity.I turned and looked straight into his eyes. "Pay off my debt? Five years ago, I was nearly killed by penniless and couldn’t afford medicine, and I didn't have the money to buy medicine. Where were you then? Now that I've become the highest-earning dancer in the world, you stand here and tell me you want to give me charity?"I shook my head and refused the hand he'd put out. "Keep your money, Damian. I don't need any help from you."I didn't spare him another look. I walked straight to Kane and took his arm. "Kane, let's go."Kane didn't give Damian so much as a glance.His hand slid down to grip my wrist, and he led me toward the elevator with long strides. The doors slid shut, sealing off Damian's furious face for good.Out the hotel doors, the night wind hit my face. I lowered my head, not daring to meet Kane's eyes. "Kane, I'm sorry

Chapter 20 The Stepsister Who Broke Him

Kane's POV"You're certain the trouble with your body has nothing to do with Damian?" I sat on the exam-room couch, watching Elena's pale face closely.Elena shook her head hard, her eyes darting away at once, not daring to meet mine. "No. It's just a coincidence."She was lying.She didn't want to tell me.I'd pulled her back from the lowest point of her life, given her a full year of shelter, given her absolute standing — and she still didn't trust me.A sharp sting of frustration and loss cut through my chest.In the end, I was just an outsider she'd guard herself against.I clenched my jaw, forced down the bitterness, and didn't push her further.The doctor pushed up his glasses and scribbled fast on a prescription pad. "Miss Winters, all your readings are fine. Your nerves are simply too tightly strung. I'll write you a strong sedative. You need proper rest.""I won't take medication." Elena refused at once and pushed the pad back. "There's nothing wrong with my mind. I don't need
