Chapter 29: Confrontation and Accusations

(Elena’s POV)

Marcus unexpectedly entered my chamber just as I was taking my medicine. I quickly tried to hide the bottle behind my back, but his sharp eyes caught the movement.

He grabbed my wrist forcefully, his fingers digging into my skin. “What are you hiding?”

His golden eyes blazed with suspicion. “Did you drug me?”

The accusation hit me like a physical blow. I stared at him in disbelief, then bitter laughter escaped my lips.

“Do you think I’m a masochist?” I asked, my voice hollow with pain. “Why would I want to be treated so badly?”

Though I could see in his eyes that he believed what I said, his expression remained cold and cruel.

“Maybe you’re trying to get pregnant with my pup,” he suggested with deliberate cruelty.

The words cut deeper than any blade. I slowly opened my palm, revealing the Moonshade Fertility Suppressant Pills.

“Unfortunately, I can’t get pregnant,” I said quietly.

Marcus’s eyes turned bloodshot as he read the word “contraceptive” on the bottle. His grip on my wrist tightened until I winced.

“Ruthless,” he spat, then stormed out of the room.
