could react, Marcus pinned me against the door.

He embraced me from behind, his breath hot against my neck. “Are you so eager to find another male?”

I struggled against his hold, annoyed by his presumption. “My actions have nothing to do with you!

“Our distant mate bond is unknown to most pack members present,” I pointed out sharply

Marcus’s voice turned husky with dangerous promise. “Continue, and I might believe you then.”

I pushed him away forcefully. “You’re sick.”

Marcus ignored my resistance, cupping my face with possessive hands. He kissed me forcefully, his lips claiming mine with desperate hunger.

My pupils contracted in shock. I instinctively wanted to resist, but Marcus held me captive against the door.

His kiss burned hotter than his wolf’s fever. It reminded me of the last time he lost control when he was

drugged.

I slapped him hard across the face. “I’m not Sophia Rivers!”

Marcus turned his head from the impact. I realized I had been too hasty with my reaction.

“You weren’t like this before,” I tried to reason with him. “I’m not used to it.”

Marcus remained silent for a long moment. Finally, he spoke with controlled authority.

“I need to see you before ten o’clock.” He left the room without another word.

I slumped against the door, shaken by Marcus’s behavior. Was he actually jealous? The thought seemed

absurd.

I laughed bitterly at my own foolishness. Marcus Blackwood, jealous over me? Impossible.

I reapplied my wolfsbane–free lip balm with trembling fingers. After composing myself, I left the Elite Lounge.

Nathan Sterling waited outside, his knowing smile making me uncomfortable.

“Interesting encounter in the Elite Lounge with Marcus Blackwood?” he teased.

I explained awkwardly, “It was just a chance encounter.”

Nathan’s expression softened with genuine concern. “I’ll help you no matter what, Elena.”

His sincerity touched something deep in my chest. Thank complicated situation.”

Nathan assured me with quiet determination, “I’m not afraid.”

I promised reluctantly, “I’ll tell you everything next time we meet.”

Nathan agreed, though a complex expression crossed his face as he watched me leave.

I took a pack taxi back to Moonhaven Estate at 9:30, mind–linking Adrian to let him know I was safe.

I arrived at my residential tower floor and opened the Moonhaven Private Quarters door. Marcus was already there, sitting at the Moonhaven Bar pouring moonpetal wine.

Our eyes met across the room. The calm in his golden gaze was instantly disturbed.

I quickly looked away, placing my satchel on the Shadow Gate Foyer cabinet. “I’m back before ten o’clock.”

Marcus picked up his glass, holding it to his lips without drinking. “I had drunk too much”

I paused, wondering if he was explaining his behavior in the Elite Lounge Tunderstand

Just as I was about to leave, Marcus suddenly grabbed my arm. I had drunk too much he repeated

I questioned his meaning with growing confusion. “What are you trying to say?”

“I’m dizzy,” he said simply

I wondered if I was hallucinating. Marcus Blackwood was actually showing weakness in front of me

While I was lost in thought, Marcus leaned on his hand, looking extremely lazy. “Aren’t you good at making lunar healing broth?”

Memories flooded back of countless nights I had waited for him during his pack social engagements had prepared lunar healing broth for him so many times.

But had he ever cared? Now, he suddenly missed it?
