Chapter 50 Did Those Rogues Really Violate You?<\/p>\n
Peggie\u2019s POV:<\/p>\n
Tomorrow is my heart transplant surgery. I feel both excited and scared.<\/p>\n
Excited, because Jorge told me the success rate is close to 80%.<\/p>\n
That means soon, I could finally live with a healthy body.<\/p>\n

But I\u2019m scared too. What if once I recover, Jake stops treating me with the same care and attention he always gave me?<\/p>\n
Lately, I\u2019ve been texting and calling him.<\/p>\n
He barely replies, and when he does, his voice sounds distant. He hardly comes to see me anymore.<\/p>\n
If the doctors hadn\u2019t needed his signature for the surgery consent today, I doubt he would have even set foot in this hospital.<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t know what changed, but the unease inside me keeps growing.<\/p>\n
And knowing he went with Deanna to try on the ceremonial gown almost drove me insane. My jealousy burned so hot, I wanted to tear her apart.<\/p>\n
If not for her, none of this would be happening.<\/p>\n
And now, seeing her right here, just a few steps away, all the anger I\u2019d been holding back rushed to the surface.<\/p>\n
I sent my nurse away, then walked quickly toward her.<\/p>\n
\u201cDeanna, we need to talk.\u201d<\/p>\n
Deanna\u2019s POV:<\/p>\n
Peggie\u2019s voice was nothing like her usual soft tone. It carried pride and hostility.<\/p>\n
Before, I might have just turned my back and walked away. But then I remembered the kidnapping.<\/p>\n
The one I still hadn\u2019t figured out was who was the culprit. If it wasn\u2019t Jillian, then Peggie might have had a hand in it.<\/p>\n
I had to know who wanted me dead!<\/p>\n
So I pushed down my annoyance and said coldly, \u201cFine.\u201d<\/p>\n
I followed her into the hospital\u2019s top\u2013floor VIP suite and immediately frowned.<\/p>\n
This wasn\u2019t a hospital room\u2013it looked more like a luxury hotel suite.<\/p>\n
Leather couches, luxurious marble coffee tables, and even the air smelled of expensive scented candles.<\/p>\n
I\u2019d heard a room like this cost nearly 100,000 dollars a day. Peggie had been living here for over a year. There was no way she could<\/p>\n
afford this on her own.<\/p>\n
Yes, she came from the Iceclaw Pack, a fairly well\u2013known pack in Lycanland.<\/p>\n

But she was unlucky.<\/p>\n
She was born the daughter of Lincoln Pearson, the alpha, and his human lover.<\/p>\n
Worse still, Peggie\u2019s mother was a woman with no standing, a hostess who used to work in shady bars. Nobody knew how many men she had entertained.<\/p>\n
Back then, when she tried to approach Lincoln, she could barely make it past the front gates of the pack.<\/p>\n
Even when Peggie was later accepted into the pack, her bloodline as a half\u2013blood made her an outcast. A half\u2013breed, a child born outside of marriage\u2013looked down on for more than twenty years.<\/p>\n
So where did all this money come from? It had to be Jake.<\/p>\n
When Jake and I were together, he was the one who paid for Peggie to have the best doctors, the best treatments, and the best care that money could buy.<\/p>\n
Forget it. Jake and I have broken up now. There\u2019s no point digging into it anymore.<\/p>\n
I went straight to the point. \u201cWere you the one who sent those rogues to kidnap me that day?\u201d<\/p>\n
Peggie poured herself a cup of hot tea, smirking like she couldn\u2019t wait to see me suffer.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo it\u2019s true then? They had violated you?\u201d<\/p>\n
She circled me slowly, holding the cup in her hand, her voice dripping with mockery. \u201cTsk! Tsk! Poor Deanna. You must feel awful. When you were taken, Jake didn\u2019t even bother to rescue you. He stayed with me, making sure I got the ceremony I always wanted.\u201d<\/p>\n
She laughed again, cruel and sharp. \u201cYou mean nothing to him. So what if you\u2019re his girlfriend? You\u2019re just a name, nothing more. If I were you, I\u2019d leave while I still had some dignity.\u201d<\/p>\n
If she had said this a while ago, I might have been trembling with rage, losing sleep over her words.<\/p>\n
But now? Now, it just struck me as ridiculous and hilarious.<\/p>\n
I couldn\u2019t believe how foolish I\u2019d once been, letting such childish taunts cut me so deeply.<\/p>\n
I cut her off coldly. \u201cI don\u2019t care for your nonsense. Just tell me\u2013was it you?\u201d<\/p>\n
Peggie snorted. \u201cNo one wants you out of the way more than I do. But why would I ruin my own ceremony just to give you a chance to steal Jake\u2019s attention?\u201d<\/p>\n
Her lips twisted into a grin. \u201cStill, looking at you now. You wouldn\u2019t be this upset unless those men really touched you.\u201d<\/p>\n
Her face lit up with twisted delight. \u201cHahaha! So how was it, Deanna? Getting violated by those rogues? Poor thing, I almost feel sorry for you.\u201d<\/p>\n
I stared at Peggie as she laughed like a lunatic, studying every flicker of her expression.<\/p>\n
That day had been her long\u2013awaited mating ceremony.<\/p>\n
If she really wanted to destroy me, she could have chosen any other time. She would never ruin her perfect day.<\/p>\n
Besides, Peggie loved to play the helpless little victim in front of others.<\/p>\n

But when it came to me, she was a fighter\u2013sharp, vicious, and always ready to cut me down.<\/p>\n
She didn\u2019t need to lie to me.<\/p>\n
As I thought it through, I noticed the cup of steaming tea still in her hand. Instinct made me step back two paces.<\/p>\n

My wolf had been gone for a long time, and now my hand was injured. If she splashed that boiling tea on me, the results would be<\/p>\n
unbearable.<\/p>\n
So I forced a smile and jabbed right where it hurt her most.<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t celebrate too early, Peggie. You love Jake so much, but why hasn\u2019t he dumped me for you? Guess you\u2019re not that important to him either.\u201d<\/p>\n
Her grin vanished. Her eyes turned dark and vicious. \u201cDeanna, I\u2019ll make this\u2013simple. Leave Jake, or I\u2019ll make you regret it.\u201d<\/p>\n
I stepped closer, my voice sharp with challenge. \u201cAnd if I say no?\u201d<\/p>\n
Suddenly, a knock sounded at the hospital room door.<\/p>\n
Both of us froze, our eyes snapping toward the sound.<\/p>\n
The doorknob slowly began to turn.<\/p>\n
