Chapter 300

(Evelyn's POV)

But fate had other plans. Just as spoke out the truth, Sarah Jenkins moved too quickly beside my bed. Her elbow caught the Fallen. Bedside Lamp of the Healing Den, sending it crashing to the floor.

The shattering sound echoed through the room, drowning out my crucial revelation. Glass scattered across the sterile floor, creating an immediate distraction.

"I'm so sorry!" Sarah exclaimed, dropping to her knees to clean up the mess.

I tried to repeat myself, but my strength was fading. The medication coursing through my system made my tongue feel heavy, my words slurring slightly at the edges.

Victoria's eyes flashed with calculated relief. She had been granted a reprieve, and she wasn't about to waste it.

"Ethan!" Victoria cried out, her voice cutting through the commotion. She wheeled herself forward in her Raven-Trimmed Wheelchair, positioning herself strategically between Ethan and my hospital bed

Her scent shifted dramatically, deliberately projecting waves of maternal distress that filled the room. Even in my weakened

state, I could detect the manipulation behind it.

"Emma's kidney is rejecting the transplant," she pleaded, tears streaming down her face with practiced precision. "She needs you now, Ethan. She's asking for you!"

I watched Ethan's face transform, his earlier curiosity about my revelation instantly replaced by concern for Emma. His wolf's protective instincts surged visibly beneath his skin.

"What? When did this happen?" he demanded, already moving toward Victoria.

"Just now," Victoria sobbed, clutching his hand. "Dr. Harper called me. They're preparing for emergency surgery."

I tried to speak again, to warn him of her deception, but my voice came out as little more than a whisper. "She's lying..."

Ethan glanced back at me, conflict evident in his amber eyes. His wolf whined with indecision, torn between investigating my startling claim and responding to Emma's supposed emergency.

"Mrs. Winters," he said, his voice strained with tension, "I promise we'll continue this conversation. But if Emma is in danger..."

Victoria pressed her advantage, her fingers tightening around Ethan's wrist. "Every second counts, Ethan. Please!"

I watched helplessly as Ethan made his choice. His Alpha instincts to protect a vulnerable pup—even one not biologically his- overrode his curiosity about my revelation.

"I'll return later," he promised me, his gaze briefly meeting mine. "Once Emma is stable."

My wolf snarled weakly beneath my skin as Victoria shot me a triumphant glance before wheeling herself out of the room with
