Atticus' POV:
Even though I'd left Eloise for good, I hadn't found a peaceful life.
The reason was simple. My parents didn't want to investigate these things, so I had a fierce quarrel with them.
"In their eyes, there's no one more suitable than Eloise to marry me," I complained to my wolf.
"But I can't marry someone just because of this."
"Of course, what you said makes a lot of sense. You have to think about it yourself." My wolf agreed with my opinion, which was rare.
"Hiding here is the most appropriate way you can decide."
I found a hotel suite on the Cotton family's territory and stayed there. If there were any work, my Beta would inform me.
I spent the next few days like this.
Although everything was calm, I still felt like a piece of my heart had been cut off. This feeling was difficult to bear.
