Chapter 119: I Can Hear You

(Elena Blackwood’s POV)

The pack members around me heard this, their expressions turning awkward. Such talk was certainly hot gossip in private–after all, which member of the werewolf elite didn’t have a scandal?

It was common for the Lunas of wealthy packs to see their Alphas keeping other she–wolves or having illegitimate pups. However, no one would ever bring such matters up in public.

Even if their own mates cheated, these Lunas would choose to turn a blind eye to protect their own and their

mate’s pack reputation. But unexpectedly, this Luna Blackwood was quite different, exposing such things in front of everyone.

Wasn’t she deliberately trying to embarrass Alpha Marcus? They couldn’t afford to offend someone with the

Blackwood name, yet they didn’t dare to say anything.

His chest heaved suddenly, but his face remained calm. “Back then, I never thought you would misunderstand my relationship with him.”

I looked at him and smiled faintly. “None of that matters anymore.”

My smile vanished as I glanced around. “This gathering is boring. I’m going back.”

I moved past Marcus, but just as I was about to leave, he suddenly grabbed my arm. “I’ll go back with you.”

I didn’t answer. After a quick word with the Head of Howell Family, Marcus left the pack gathering early.
