Chapter 200: Twin Revelations

(Elena Blackwood’s POV)

“David...” | didn’t expect his reaction to be so strong toward Marcus.

David suddenly pleaded, his voice breaking with desperation. “Sister, make him leave, okay? | don’t want to see

him.”

| worried that David would be emotionally triggered again by the Alpha’s presence. His fragile state couldn't

handle any more stress.

| approached Marcus, my voice firm but quiet. “He doesn’t want to see you. Please leave.”

Marcus remained unmoved, his golden eyes fixed on David with an unreadable expression.

“I acknowledge your resentment toward me,” Marcus said, his voice carrying Alpha authority even in apology.

“Particularly regarding Sophia Rivers. | admit partial responsibility.”

David's face contorted with pain and anger.

“Despite this, | vow to you that | will not let Sophia off the hook,” Marcus continued.

David remained unconvinced, turning his face away. The indelible memories of his fosters.

weighed heavily on his heart.

Without a word, | pulled Marcus out to the Institute Corridor.

“He doesn’t want to see you, so don’t disturb him anymore,” | said firmly. “He can’t take any more emotional

stress.”

Marcus's voice was muffled with emotion. “You two siblings even say the sthings.”

He recalled my past distrust during our mating bond crisis The parallel wasn’t lost on him.

| was puzzled by his words but didn’t dwell on them. “You should go back to the Blackwood Consortium.”

Marcus stood his ground, stepping closer. “I'll leave, but first answer the question | asked in the Steel Ascent

elevator.”

His Alpha presence overwhelmed the narrow corridor. “Why did you lie to me?”

| paused, refusing to answer. The silence stretched between us like a chasm.

Marcus pressed on, his voice gaining intensity. “You could have toldfrom the start that the Vintage Brass

Lighter with Intricate Wolf Engravings was for David.”

| felt exposed, caught in my deception. | dropped the pretense entirely.

“Do | need my mate's permission to give a gift to someone?” | retorted, my voice sharp with defiance.

Marcus's chest heaved with emotion, his wolf barely contained. “You deceiveddeliberately.”

“And you've never lied to me?” | confronted him with righteous anger. “The night Sophia returned to the

Northern Territory?”

His breath hitched, his expression tightening.

“You claimed to be working late at the Blackwood Consortium,” | continued relentlessly. “But you were actually

with Sophia. Isabella Blackwood sentphotos as proof.”

Marcus tried to explain, his voice strained. “The situations were different-"

“The essence is the same,” | cut him off. “Deception between mates.”

Marcus was silenced, his Alpha authority crumbling before my anger.

| pressed my advantage, years of suppressed resentment pouring out. “I never fully forgave you for your past

controlling behavior.”

“Your old manipulation tactics won't work anymore,” | reminded him coldly. “You confined me, used your Alpha

authority to coerce me.”

My voice grew stronger with each word. “I have my own family now. | won't compromise myself for our troubled

mating bond anymore.”

(Marcus Blackwood’s POV)

After saying these words, Elena walked pastand left.

| stood there motionless, my entire being dejected. The corridor felt impossibly empty without her presence.

| was consumed by regret, realizing my past controlling behavior had led to this deterioration. Margaret

Blackwood’s words echoed in my mind, foretelling my eventual regret over losing Elena.

These words now struckdeeply, hitting right in my heart. My wolf whimpered with loss and despair.

At this moment, Amber Stone called me.

| suppressed my emotions and answered, forcing my voice to remain steady.

“Alpha,” Amber reported efficiently. “I found Sophia Rivers’ adoptive father.”

My attention sharpened despite my emotional turmoil.

“There are clues about the person behind her schemes,” she continued. “Someone with significant influence has

been manipulating events from the shadows.”

(Elena Blackwood’s POV)

At noon, | found Hazel Green's business card and called her.

After a moment, she answered. “Hello.”

“It’s me, Elena Blackwood,” | said calmly.

Hazel was obviously stunned, then smiled. “It’s you. | didn’t expect you to take the initiative to call me.”

“I didn’t expect that you and the Whitmore family are actually relatives,” | replied. “Should | call you aunt?”

“Adrian told you?” she asked with interest.

| stood by the window in the restaurant's private dining area, looking into the distance. | didn’t answer directly.

“Are you free? Let's talk?”

< Chapter 200 Twin Revelations

| expected Hazel to be somewhat guilty and afraid to meet. But she readily agreed and arranged a place.

At the Crimson Moon Tavern, an hour later, | arrived by car.

Points

Hazel Green was still elegantly dressed, sitting by the window. | noticed she seemed to favor wearing lace

gloves, possibly to conceal scars or marks.

I walked to the seat and sat down across from her.

Hazel withdrew her gaze from the window and fixed it on my face. “You look so much like your mother.”

| smiled back. “Is that your true feeling?”

Hazel poured a glass of moonlight wine, her movements graceful and deliberate.

“Actually, before | had cosmetic surgery, | looked exactly like your mother,” she said quietly. “We were twin

sisters.”
