Chapter 0114
Elliot's POV
"I don't want to talk to you. I want to talk to my wife," I practically barked as Rebecca grabbed my arm and pulled me away from her apartment door and outside. I was a lot stronger than her and if I truly wanted to, I could prevent her from taking me anywhere and barge into her apartment without a second thought.
I knew Silver was there; I could smell her as easily as if she was right next to me. I could also smell her misery and her sadness, and I wanted to wrap my arms around her and tell her that I was hers and nobody else's. I wasn't Shirley's mate; I wasn't Shirley's anything. At one point, I thought she was my friend, but I'm realizing I was delusional. She wasn't my friend; friends don't pull shit like this. I was so furious with her that I'd been ignoring her phone calls for the past hour.
Even Beta Leo has been calling and texting, asking me where I was because Shirley was upset and wanted me at the hospital. There was no way in fucking hell I was going to let Shirley manipulate me any further. I had been blind to how Shirley had been treating Silver and I wouldn't allow that to continue.
I told Beta Leo to abort his duties at the hospital and return to the palace. He was reluctant, but he eventually caved in and left the hospital. I wasn't going to tell him what was going on over the phone. Leo might be my beta, but he was also my best friend. I told him pretty much everything and this was too big to speak over the phone.
"Too bad, because if you want to get to her, you're going to have to get through me first," she said, folding her arms across her chest.
Rebecca was short and I'd be lying if I said she wasn't pretty. She had curly blond hair that rested at her shoulders and silver eyes that could kill. She had a thin figure, but curves in all the right places and she typically wore designer clothing, although she didn't give off materialistic vibes. She also had a bite in her words, and I knew she was fierce. She loved Silver more than anything and she would fight until the earth ended for her best friend.
Seeing her glaring at me, I was starting to see the family resemblance between her and Marco. They had the same silver eyes and the same scowl. I would have laughed if I wasn't so pissed and upset over the fact that my wife is filing for a goddamn divorce. "So, tell me what you're doing here," she said, putting her hands on her hips and giving me a pointed look.
"I need to speak with her."
"Well, you're going to talk to me. What do you want with her?" She asked without a single hesitation.
"I need to tell her that nothing is going on between Shirley and me," I blurted. "I don't know what Shirley, or anyone said, but it wasn't true. I would never-" my voice trailed off when I saw the puzzled look on her face. "Shirley isn't your true mate?" She asked.
"Fuck no!" I all but shouted. "I need to tell Silver the truth."
"Okay, but right now she's not going to believe you and she's not going to listen to a word you say," Rebecca said, narrowing her eyes at me. "You broke her trust. She's heartbroken and she hasn't left bed all day. Her own father told her she only had a couple of days here before she needed to leave. He told her he won't have a rogue living in his pack."
I growled; my wolf furious at the thought of Silver being a rogue.
"She's not a rogue," I said through the growl. "I would never allow that to happen."
"I already made some calls; there are some Alpha's willing to let her into their packs," Rebecca said softly.
Another growl escaped my lips, this

way Rebecca took an unsteady step away from me that my wolf was showing himself through my
eyes.
"She's my wife; I won't let that happen," I growled.
She nodded as if she already knew what I was going to say.
"Well, if you can convince her that you mean well, then maybe she

"I'm not signing the papers ever. I'm not giving up my marriage," I said with finality in my words.
She raised her brows at me and studied my face for a moment. When she found what she was searching for, she gasped.
