NovelEnglishSilver's POV "You... you did this on purpose." It wasn't a question, but I was too stunned to say anything more.
She gavea humorless laugh.
"Obviously," she said, rolling her eyes. "Did you honestly think someone like you could purposely hurt someone like me? I'm an Alpha and you are wolfless. Don't flatter yourself." "Why would you do something like that?" I asked her, shaking my head as realization dawned on me.
"Isn't it obvious?" She scoffed. "To prove a point. Elliot will always take my word over yours. He will always chooseover you. You are nothing to him and I am everything. I've been his friend and ally for a long time. I'm the obvious choice for him. I know it, he knows it, and now you know it." I stepped towards her, suddenly feeling a surge of anger.
"He's my husband. He married me. If he wanted you, he would have married you long ago. So, with all due respect, Alpha, back off my marriage," I said through my teeth.
Anger flashed through her eyes and then she grabbed my hand, hangingtowards her. I lost my footing and fell onto her bed. I was too stunned to react when she started screaming and crying. Within seconds Elliot was running into the room with Beta Leo trailing behind him.
"Shirley!" Elliot exclaimed as he caught wind of the situation.

"Elliot! Help! She's attacking me!" Shirley whaled. I caught the glint of mischief in her eyes though. My body was shielding her face from Elliot so only I could see it. Anger coursed throughat the sight of it. Elliot grabbed my arm, just as Shirley released me. He rippedoff the bed and I went stumbling away from them, hitting the wall with force, my wrist getting the worst of it. I yelled out in pain, gripping my wrist.
The sound of my impact and whimper of pain alerted Elliot and he turned to look at me, alarm clear on his face. His eyes blazing yellow as his wolf cto the surface.
His eyes went to my face and then to my wrist. I could see the flash of regret on his face, and he opened his mouth to say something but then Shirley cut in, stopping him. "Elliot! It hurts," Shirley cried. "Why would your wife do this... why?" Elliot turned back to Shirley.
"It's okay, Shirley. Just calm down. It'll be okay," he assured her, his voice ringing with high emotions. He glanced over his shoulder at Beta Leo who was standing nearby, staring at the scene unfold before him. "Bring Silver home." Beta Leo paused for a moment as both his and Elliot's eyes glazed over. Then they returned back to normal. Leo nodded his understanding before turning to look at me.
"Luna," he said, motioning forto follow him.
I stared at Elliot who was no longer payingany attention. His sole attention was on Shirley and my heart shattered at the sight of them. Pressing my lips together, I followed Beta Leo out of the room. We walked into the waiting room and just when I thought we were going to the Elevator, Beta Leo B-lined to the receptionist.
"Can we get a doctor to look at Luna's wrist, please?" Leo asked.
I frowned.
"What are you doing?" I asked, confused by the gesture.
He glanced atover his shoulder while the receptionist spoke on the phone with an available doctor. "Alpha's orders," he explained. "He senta mind link and toldto get your wrist looked at." I raised my brows, that uneasy feeling lifting off my chest only slightly.
"He did?" I asked.
Does Elliot truly care enough aboutthat he would have Leo get my wrist looked at? Maybe that remorseful and concerned expression was genuine.
Soon, a doctor appeared in the room.
"Hello, Beta. You requested service?" He asked.
"Yes, for the Luna. She injured her wrist. Can you take a look at it?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe doctor glanced atbriefly before nodding and motioning for us to follow him. I did so, but once We got into therdom, I turned to them and said, "It's not necessary. I'm fine." "I'll be the judge of that, Luna," the doctor said, patting the hospital bed. I sighed and sat down on the bed. He took my wrist in his hand, and I winced at the pain. I don't have a wolf, so I take longer to heal.
After a short exam and an X-ray, he וויד finally stated, "Just a small fracture. Nothing to be concerned about. I'll give your wrist a shot of pain medication and then wrap it in a bandage." "Thank you," I said to him. He nodded in response before leaving to get his supplies. Leavingalone in the room with Leo, I sighed and looked up at him.
"Elliot really asked you to get my wrist looked at?" I asked.
He nodded.
"He sounded distressed in the mind-link," he told me.
"Probably because his beloved Shirley was hurt," I muttered. I didn't really mean to say that out loud, but I did, and Leo heardloud and clear.
His brows raised as he stared down at me.
"Despite what you might think, Shirley has never been anything more than a friend to the Alpha, Leo told me. "You don't need to be resentful towards her." X
