Chapter 53: The Shadow of Truth
Chapter 53: The Shadow of Truth
(Elena’s POV)
Margaret Blackwood turned a blind eye to Sophia Rivers‘ feigned weakness and just sneered. “If I don’t blame you, who else can I blame? After six years, your skin is still as thick as ever.”
The words cut through the air like a blade. Sophia’s carefully constructed mask of innocence cracked under Margaret’s withering gaze.
Being humiliated, Sophia Rivers‘ face suddenly turned pale. Marcus Blackwood frowned, his protective instincts flaring.
“Grandma, don’t interfere with my affairs with her, and don’t target her anymore.” He picked Sophia up without hesitation, cradling her against his chest.
He left without looking at me. Not even a glance to see if I was hurt or needed help.
The cold dismissal hit me harder than the icy water of the Moonstone Reflecting Pool. I watched them disappear into the manor, feeling more alone than ever.
Margaret Blackwood sighed deeply at this scene. She turned to look at me, still drenched and shivering.
“Now the Blackwood family owes you.”
“It doesn’t matter,” I smiled bitterly. The words tasted like ash in my mouth.
Anyway, we were severing our mate bond. Marcus’s attitude wouldn’t affect my decision anymore.
As I struggled to get up from the pool’s edge, Victoria Blackwood surprisingly stepped forward to help me.
Her hand was steady and warm.
“Mother, I’ll take her down to change clothes first.”
Margaret Blackwood nodded approvingly. “Do that.”
In the Master Suite, I changed into a clean set of clothes from the Moonhaven Wardrobe Chamber. The fabric felt foreign against my skin after the chaos.
I thought Victoria Blackwood had already left, but she was still there. Standing by the window, her silhouette
rigid with unspoken thoughts.
I walked up to her cautiously. “Mother, I’ve changed my clothes, so I’ll go back first.”
Victoria Blackwood straightened my collar with gentle hands. Her touch was surprisingly tender.
“You’ve tasted the feeling of being mated to an Alpha who doesn’t cherish you, right?” Her voice was calm,
almost conversational.
I was stunned. Was I hallucinating?
Victoria Blackwood rarely said things that weren’t part of a Luna’s duty, let alone her true feelings.
“Mother, what are you…“.
“I’m just saying, you’ve seen Logan’s attitude towards you.” Victoria changed her usual attitude completely.
