(Elena’s POV)

For a moment, hope flickered in my chest. Was he refusing because he cared about me?

“My grandmother wouldn’t agree either, Marcus continued coldly. “Don’t even think about it.”

The door slammed shut behind him. I stood there, feeling a crushing weight in my heart. My previous thought was laughable.

He wasn’t refusing for me. He was refusing because of his grandmother. But I knew something he didn’t Margaret had already agreed to the bond severance.

The next morning, Catherine Hayes arrived as usual. Marcus was already gone.

I ate breakfast alone, trying to appear unaffected by his absence. The silence in the dining room felt heavier

than usual.

Catherine moved through the estate, cleaning with her usual efficiency. She paused in the Great Hall, looking

around with confusion.

“Luna, why are so many things missing from the estate?”

I forced a smile. “I threw away some old and unimportant things.”

Catherine nodded, not pressing further. But her observant eyes lingered on me with concern.

“Elena, we need you immediately. Critical healing session.”

“What happened?”

“Construction worker fell from a building site. Steel rebar through the skull. The healer skilled in cranial healing is away. Only you can perform this.”
