Chapter 249: The Truth

Lennox’s POV

We walked back into the room and realized Sofia was now conscious.

"How are you feeling now?" he asked tenderly, but Sofia frowned at him and slowly forced herself to sit properly on the bed. She met our eyes and flashed us a weak smile before turning back to Damien, who looked tense—and then, unexpectedly, she slapped him hard across the cheek.

The healers gasped, while my brothers and I just stood silently... watching.

Damien’s head jerked slightly from the impact. He didn’t defend himself. Didn’t even flinch.

Sofia’s lips trembled as tears welled in her eyes.

"Because of you, I was kidnapped!" she shouted, her voice shaking with anger.

Damien finally looked up at her, his expression unreadable. "Sofia..."

"No!" she snapped, cutting him off. "They took me and kept me locked away for days! Days, Damien! And do you know what they did?"

She didn’t wait for a reply.

"They showed you pictures. Videos. They told you if you didn’t back out of the contest for Supreme Alpha, they would kill me. You know what you said?"

Damien looked away.

"You told them to go ahead," she whispered bitterly. "You said you had already married. You have no feelings for me anymore... You didn’t just move on— you replaced me. With my best friend."

Her voice cracked on the last word.

My brothers and I glanced at each other, stunned. Our eyes widened as the realization settled over us.
