Chapter 228: Existence of Inexplicable Unease

(Elena Blackwood’s POV)

Mia's words hung in the air like a thunderbolt. My heart stopped beating for a moment.

“Long ago?” | repeated, my voice barely above a whisper.

Mia's fan-shaped eyes sparkled with something between mischief and regret. She opened her mouth to

continue, but her phone suddenly rang, cutting through the tension.

She glanced at the screen and sighed. “It's my

brother.”

“Hello?” she answered, putting the phone on speaker.

Hugo's voice cthrough clearly. “Where are you taking Elena?”

“Back to her hotel, of course,” Mia replied with forced cheerfulness. “Don’t worry, I'll deliver her safely.”

“Drive carefully,” Hugo said, his tone carrying an undertone | couldn’t quite identify.

After hanging up, Mia's expression shifted. A flash of regret crossed her delicate features.

| leaned forward eagerly. “What were you about to tell me?”

Mia smiled mysteriously, shaking her head. “I think I've said too much already.”

“Please,” | pressed. “You can’t just leavehanging like that.”

She glanced atsideways, her grip tightening on the steering wheel. “If you really want to know, you should

ask my brother directly.”

“Ask him what exactly?”

“Ask him about his secret,” she said softly. “The one he’s been keeping for years.

The rest of the drive passed in contemplative silence. My mind raced with questions, but Mia refused to

elaborate further.

When we arrived at the Crimson Moon Lodge, | thanked her and stepped out of the car. As | walked through the

hotel corridor, two familiar figures caught my attention.

The pack enforcement officers who had been guarding Sophia Rivers stood near the Steel Ascent. They nodded

respectfully as they passed me, entering the elevator with serious

expressions.

| watched them disappear behind the closing doors, my mind churning with possibilities.

Inside my room, | found Marcus standing by the floor-to-ceiling windows. Amber Stone stood beside him, her

posture professional yet attentive.

“Do you want to visit her now?” Amber asked quietly.

Marcus's golden eyes remained fixed on the city skyline. “It’s tto meet with her.”

| walked past them without a word, my expression carefully neutral. The weight of their conversation pressed

against my consciousness, but | refused to acknowledge it.

“Luna,” Amber called out as | reached the bedroom door.

| didn’t respond. | simply entered the bedroom and closed the door behind me.

Through the thin walls, | could hear Marcus's gaze following the sound of the closing door. But he said nothing.

The next morning, Marcus and | sat across from each other at the breakfast table. Our routine continued as if

yesterday's events had never happened.

Neither of us offered explanations. Neither of us asked questions.

| lifted a spoonful of porridge to my lips and paused. The taste was unusually light and perfectly suited to my

palate. The venison and herbs blended together in a way that seemed almost... thoughtful.

“This tastes different today,” | observed.

Marcus continued eating without looking up. “Is it not to your liking?”

Before | could answer, Alexander Blackwood arrived, slightly out of breath from his hurried

pace.

“Sorry I'm late,” he said, pulling out his chair. He glanced at the spread before us and frowned. “The breakfast

looks rather plain today.”

Marcus set down his spoon with deliberate care. “I prepared it myself.”

| froze mid-bite, my eyes widening as | stared at the bowl in my hands. The porridge suddenly felt heavier on my

tongue.

Alexander raised an eyebrow. “You cooked? Since when do you cook?”

Chapter 228 Existence of Inexplicable Uncase

“I have nothing else to do while staying at the hotel,” Marcus replied casually

My emotions beca tangled mess. The simple act of him preparing breakfast felt more intimate than any

grand gesture he'd ever made.

Alexander settled into his seat and reached for his coffee. “Speaking of which, | encountered Fred Xavier at the

Commerce District yesterday. Quite surprising to see him back in the territory.”

At the mention of that name, my grip tightened around my spoon. My knuckles turned white as an inexplicable

wave of unease washed over me.

Fred Xavier. The nsent chills down my spine.

Ever since fragments of that childhood k***+*+++g incident began surfacing in my memory, this nfilled me

with dread. | remembered how close we cto losing our lives that

year.

Marcus's golden eyes shifted to observe my reaction. His gaze was thoughtful, calculating.

| forced myself to relax my grip on the spoon, but the fear remained lodged in my chest like a cold stone.

At nine o'clock, | returned to the Northern Territory Central Healing Institute. As | exited the Steel Ascent, a figure

approachedfrom the shadows.

| looked up and my heart nearly stopped.

However, this man appeared much younger than my childhood memories suggested.

| quickly averted my eyes and tried to walk past him, but his voice stoppedcold.

“Wait,” he called out.

| stopped and turned back, my pulse racing. “What do you need?”

“Mr. Xavier,” Hugo Ashworth’s voice cut through the tension from behind.

and the stranger.
