Chapter 0207
Hannah & fish
Hannah’s POV
Drake’s hand found my waist as we began to move to the music. His touch was life, almost hestant, as if he-Drake, the supposed playboy and womanize-eve that this was happening
“You look stunning,” he said, his eyes romm
stunning,” he said, his eyes roaming over my red dress. “Not that you don’t always look beautiful, but tonight…”
I forced a smile, “Thank you, Drake, I’m glad you like
We swayed to the music in silence for a moment before Drake spoke again. “Hannah, I hope you don’t mind me asking, but… why did you ask me to dance? Not that I’m complaining, but its atterexpecte after what happened earlier.”
I took a deep breath to steel myself before responding “Drake, I have a proposition for your
His eyebrows shot up “A proposition?
Yes I know you have feelings for me,” I said bluntly, watching as his cheeks flushed red. “And I’m willing to consider one date with you in two months.”
Drake’s eyes widened ever so slightly, “Two months? That’s spectic, although not unwelcome. But why are you telling me this now?”
“Because I want something in exchange,” I said, lowering my voice so as not to be overheard, 1 need your help”
Drake’s brow furrowed. “With what?”
I glanced around to make sure no one was listening 1 Believe Noah and Zoe are still in love. I found a picture of them in Noah’s offering to the Moon Goddess”
Drake’s grip on my waist tightened slightly. “What? Are you sure?”
I nodded. “I need proof that Noah is cheating”

There was a brief silence after that as Drake processed my words. I couldn’t tell Drake just yes, but l needed the proof to present during our divorce proceedings, if I had that, then the divorce wouldn’t be denied
Even if Noah found out about the baby
“You want me to help you spy on Noah and Zoe? Drake asked, leaning back a bit to eye me suspiciously.
“Essentially, yes,” I admitted. “Will you help me?
Drake was quiet for a moment, his eyes searching mine. Finally, he let out a slow breath. “You know I’m supposed to return to my pack now that the Lunar Festival is over”
“You don’t have to help me,” I said. “If you need to return to your pack right away, then you’re welcome to do that. But all I ask is for a little bit of help, and then some patience”

Drake eyed me for a moment longer before finally nodding. “Alright. What do you need me to do?”
Relief washed over me, and I felt my shoulders slump infinitesimally. “For now, just keep your eyes open. If you see anything suspicious, let me know immediately.”
“Okay,” Drake agreed. “I can certainly do that.”
As we continued to dance, I couldn’t help but feel a twinge of guilt. Was I really doing the right thing, or was I giving in to my anger and bringing back the scheming side of myself that I knew was toxic?
But then I remembered the picture of Noah and Zoe, young and in love, and my resolve hardened. I deserved the truth, no matter how painful it might be.
Noah was cheating on me. I just needed proof. (1)
Noah’s POV
Noah’s eyes scanned the crowded dance hall, searching for a familiar blonde head of hair. The festival was in full swing now, with people laughing, dancing, and enjoying themselves despite the earlier rain. But Noah couldn’t shake the unease that had settled in his stomach since his argument with Hannah.
Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of golden hair disappearing around a corner. Without hesitation, Noah pushed through the crowd, following the fleeting image of Zoe. He needed to speak to her.
As he rounded the corner, he saw her again, this time further down the hallway. “Zoe!” he called out, but if she heard him, she gave no indication whether she did or not.
Noah quickened his pace, practically chasing her through the winding corridors of the mansion. It was almost as if she was leading him somewhere, always just out of reach.
Finally, he saw her slip behind a heavy curtain in an alcove. Noah approached cautiously, his heart pounding in his chest. He pushed the curtain aside, revealing Zoe standing in the small space, her back to him.
“Zoe,” Noah said, his voice tight as he stepped into the alcove and snapped the curtain shut behind himself. “We need to talk.”
She turned slowly and shot him a doe-like look through her eyelashes. “Noah. Were you following me just now?”
Nodding, Noah pulled out the photograph from his pocket, holding it up for her to see without preamble.” Can you explain this? Did you put this in my offering?”
Zoe’s brow furrowed as she looked at the picture. “What are you talking about? I didn’t put anything anywhere.”
“I hope you’re not lying to me,” Noah said, unable to hide the frustration in his voice. “This was in my offering bundle, but I didn’t put it there. Hannah found it and now she’s pissed.”
Zoe’s eyes widened, and a look of genuine confusion crossed her delicate face. “Noah, I swear I didn’t do this.”
When Noah didn’t seem entirely convinced, Zoe sighed. “Look,” she said, reaching into her pocket and
