Chapter 33: Unspoken Bonds
Chapter 33: Unspoken Bonds
(Elena’s POV)
Night fell, the territory lights twinkling outside the window. I sat cross–legged on the bed, organizing healing protocols for the next day in my notebook when my phone rang.
David Blackthorne’s name flashed on the screen. I answered, and before I could speak, his boisterous voice
came through.
“Sis! Have you forgotten? My birthday is the day after tomorrow! Are you and Alpha Marcus coming?”
I paused, glancing at the date: June 10th. Time really flew by without notice.
I assured David that I hadn’t forgotten, but couldn’t guarantee if Marcus would come. David was about to say something when I heard Patricia’s voice in the background, grabbing the phone.
“Elena, you and Marcus must attend his birthday party,” Patricia insisted with her usual demanding tone.
David snatched the phone back quickly. “Ignore Mom. Your presence is enough for me.”
I agreed softly, feeling warmth at my brother’s understanding. After ending the call, I stared at the screen, lost
in thought.
I hadn’t celebrated my own birthday since I was eight, but I didn’t want to disappoint David.
Because of the tense relationship with Marcus, I didn’t use our mate bond to communicate. I sent a message
to Marcus about David’s birthday, carefully editing it to avoid sounding too deliberate. The message
remained unanswered after several minutes.
I set aside my phone and continued working on my protocols.
The next morning, I walked into the Great Hall and saw Marcus sitting at the table reading a magazine.

I approached him cautiously. “When did you return?”
Marcus didn’t look up from his reading. “Last night.”
