Chapter 123: The Truth Revealed

(Elena Blackwood’s POV)

Professor Andrew stood beside Professor Theodore when he heard our conversation. His eyes widened with recognition as he looked at me.

“Wait, I remember you,” he said, stepping forward. “You were with Alpha Marcus when I met him in the Northern Territory.”

The crowd murmured at this revelation. While connections weren’t uncommon in pack circles, the academic

world valued substance over relationships.

People like Professor Theodore and Professor Andrew had no need for those with mere appearances but no

real healing skills.

Sophia’s lips curved into a triumphant smile. She clearly expected this confirmation to expose me as nothing

more than Marcus’s accessory.

“See?” she said, her voice dripping with vindication. “I told you she only gets into these circles through her

mate’s influence.”

The two female colleagues nodded smugly, their earlier embarrassment forgotten.

Just as everyone expected me to be dismissed, Professor Theodore touched the moonstone pendant on his wrist. He looked at Professor Andrew with a knowing smile.

“Didn’t you want to meet my protégé?” Professor Theodore asked.

Professor Andrew nodded in confirmation. “Yes, I’ve been looking forward to it.”

Professor Theodore gestured for me to come to his side. His arm wrapped around my shoulder pr

ively.

“She is my protégé, Elena Blackwood,” he declared proudly.

The crowd fell into stunned silence. Sophia’s face turned from green to white with shock.

Her mouth opened and closed like a fish gasping for air.

Professor Andrew’s eyes lit up with amazement. “This is incredible! I had no idea.”

Professor Theodore beamed with pride. “Elena is the most gifted healer I have personally selected for advanced surgical techniques.”

“Her work on neural regeneration therapy has been groundbreaking,” he continued. “She’s already published three papers in the International Werewolf Medical Journal.”
