Chapter 40: The Alpha’s Indifference

(Elena’s POV)

When Catherine Hayes rushed to the healing institute, she was startled by my red and swollen eyes.

“Luna, what happened to you?” Her voice trembled with shock.

I explained that someone had splashed pepper spray on me. “I’ll be fine after a period of rest.” Catherine’s face filled with concern. “Should I inform Alpha Marcus immediately?”

I stopped her quickly. “No, don’t bother him with his busy pack duties. I only trust you, Catherine.”

Her eyes softened with emotion at my words. “I understand, Luna. I’ll keep this between us.”

For the next two days, I remained in the healing institute. My eyes gradually opened, though slight swelling still surrounded them.

Catherine diligently brought meals and provided care. Just after she left one afternoon, Sophia Rivers appeared at my door.

“I came to visit you,” Sophia said, though her tone lacked genuine concern.

I looked at her coldly. “Are you here to see me or mock me?”

Sophia sat down, placing a newly released designer handbag in front of her. The expensive leather gleamed under the fluorescent lights.

“Has Marcus visited you?” she asked casually.

I remained silent, unwilling to give her the satisfaction of an answer.

She smiled knowingly. “Marcus accompanied me shopping yesterday. He bought me this handbag worth thousands without hesitation.”

Her words cut deeper than intended. “He’s never taken you shopping, has he?”

I suppressed my emotions, but her deliberate flaunting still affected me. Despite trying to ignore it, I couldn’t deceive myself about the pain.
