Chapter 136: Confrontations and Revelations

(Marcus Blackwood’s POV)

Elena stared at me in bewilderment when I announced I would stay overnight at her apartment. Her green eyes widened with disbelief.

“I don’t have any toiletries for you,” she said, clearly trying to find an excuse to make me leave.

I shrugged casually. “I’ll use yours.”

The words left her speechless. She opened and closed her mouth like she couldn’t believe what she’d just

heard.

Hugo Ashworth, who had been observing our exchange with growing irritation, stepped forward. “I can provide you with a guest room at my place, complete with unused toiletries.”

I turned to face him, my golden eyes narrowing. “You think it’s appropriate for me to stay at another Alpha’s

residence?”

Hugo’s expression hardened. His usual calm demeanor cracked as he delivered a pointed rebuke.

“You, as her mate, haven’t done what you should do, but force what you shouldn’t do, just because she’s your Luna,” he said, his voice cutting through the tension. “But have you considered her thoughts? Have you asked her if she needs you to stay and take care of her?”

The words struck me like thorns piercing my heart. Each syllable felt like an accusation I couldn’t deny.

I realized with painful clarity that I had never tru

asked for Elena’s opinion about anything. I had simply imposed my will, assuming my authority as her Alpha gave me that right.

When I looked at Elena for an answer, she avoided my gaze completely. Her voice was quiet but firm when

she spoke.

“I can take care of myself.”

For the first time in years, I didn’t press the issue. The defeat tasted bitter in my mouth.

“I’ll visit tomorrow,” I said simply.

As I turned to leave, Hugo called after me. “Have you reconsidered staying at my place?”

I paused at the doorway. “We can discuss it tomorrow.”

(Elena Blackwood’s POV)

After Marcus’s departure, Hugo lingered in the hallway. His amber eyes studied my face with concern.

“Why didn’t you ask him to stay if you were reluctant to see him go?” he asked gently.
