Luis\u2019s POV:<\/p>\n
\u201cMy woman doesn\u2019t need your punishment. Who do you think you are?\u201d<\/p>\n

I glared at Desmond, who was still floundering in the pool after I\u2019d kicked him in. The sight of him made me sick. I wanted to drag him out and hit him again.<\/p>\n
But I didn\u2019t waste more time on him. I hurriedly checked on Deanna, who fell on the ground.<\/p>\n
Her face was pale. A streak of blood at the corner of her mouth. Her wrist was swollen and red, and she was too weak to get up.<\/p>\n
The hem of her expensive gown was torn, leaving her looking completely wrecked and fragile. She looked like she was about to be<\/p>\n
crushed in a storm.<\/p>\n
Damn it.<\/p>\n
I was running late for a few minutes because I had to stop by somewhere. And she ended up in this state?<\/p>\n
Rage burned in my chest.<\/p>\n
I maintained a stern expression as I approached her. Pulling off my jacket, I draped it over Deanna\u2019s shoulders.<\/p>\n
I wasn\u2019t concerned about the whispers circling us. I crouched down, lifted my hand, and gently wiped the blood from the corner of<\/p>\n
her mouth.<\/p>\n
\u201cWho did this to you?\u201d<\/p>\n
Deanna kept her head lowered and turned her face away.<\/p>\n
I caught her chin and tilted her face up to face me, not giving her a choice. \u2014<\/p>\n
Her eyes were red, her lips pressed together, but she didn\u2019t cry.<\/p>\n
That stubborn fire in her gaze made my chest ache with both anger and pain.<\/p>\n
\u201cWho hit you?\u201d I asked again, my tone sharp.<\/p>\n
My eyes swept coldly across the crowd.<\/p>\n
The crowd took a step back, avoiding my stare.<\/p>\n
Behind me came the splash of water. Desmond dragged himself out of the pool, soaked and shivering.<\/p>\n
He shouted, voice cracking, \u201cWho has the nerve to touch me? Do you even know who I am? I\u2019m the next Alpha of Mistbane Pack!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cShut your mouth, fool!\u201d Philip roared.<\/p>\n
Then, forcing a smile, he hurried toward me.<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Eaton, forgive us. We didn\u2019t welcome you properly. This is a private pack matter, and I\u2019m sorry you had to witness it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDad!\u201d Desmond snapped \u201cHe kicked me in\u2013how can you humble yourself to him?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cShut up, you fool!\u201d Philip barked back. \u201cThis is the Alpha of Mooncrown Pack.\u201d<\/p>\n
I didn\u2019t waste time listening to their argument. My eyes locked on Desmond. \u201cThe slap on Deanna\u2019s face\u2026 You did that, didn\u2019t you?\u201d<\/p>\n
Desmond\u2019s lips trembled. He couldn\u2019t say a word.<\/p>\n
That silence was enough. I tugged at my tie, rolled up the sleeves of my shirt, and slipped the watch Deanna had given me into my pocket.<\/p>\n
Then I rose to my feet and took slow, deliberate steps toward him.<\/p>\n
Desmond went pale and took a step back.<\/p>\n
The next second, I yanked his shirt collar hard and slammed his head down onto the ground.<\/p>\n
\u201cArghh!\u201d<\/p>\n
A gasp ran through the crowd.<\/p>\n
didn\u2019t stop. My fingers tightened. I smashed his head down again and again. With each strike I hissed a question.<\/p>\n
\u2018Like hitting women?<\/p>\n
\u201cLike kicking people?<\/p>\n
\u2018Like dragging people around?<\/p>\n
\u201cYou like that, huh?\u201d<\/p>\n
Every question came with another slam.<\/p>\n
Blood from Desmond\u2019s head quickly stained the pavement.<\/p>\n
\u201cArghhh, please stop!\u201d<\/p>\n
Desmond wailed, begging through the pain. \u201cLet me go! I was wrong. I won\u2019t do it again!\u201d<\/p>\n
My parents died early. My grandmother raised me with strict discipline as the Alpha of the Mooncrown Pack.<\/p>\n
That elite upbringing made me arrogant, cold, and ruthless by nature.<\/p>\n
If I hadn\u2019t met Deanna back then, I would have become even more brutal and merciless.<\/p>\n
Thinking of that scumbag slapping Deanna made me want to kick him to death.<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Eaton!\u201d Kathryn suddenly rushed over.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is an internal pack matter. Deanna pushed Jillian from the window. As Luna, I have the right to handle this dispute fairly. It\u2019s not appropriate for you to interfere.\u201d<\/p>\n
I let go of the barely conscious Desmond and took a towel nearby, slowly wiping my hands.<\/p>\n

I shot Kathryn a cool look. \u201cAre you sure Deanna did it?\u201d Lasked.<\/p>\n
\u201cI didn\u2019t do it.\u201d Deanna\u2019s voice rang out then, stubborn and trembling.<\/p>\n
The sight of her eased most of the hostility in my chest.<\/p>\n
I walked over and bent close to her ear, my voice low and soothing.<\/p>\n

\u201cHaha. Even if you did push her, so what? Better you push than someone push you. If she\u2019s crippled, I\u2019ll cover for you. But if you end up crippled, how could I live with that?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou-!\u201d Kathryn\u2019s breath hitched.<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Eaton, I know your rank is high, but Deanna and Jillian are my daughters. This is pack matter. Using your power to pressure us -aren\u2019t you worried people will laugh at you if this gets out?\u201d<\/p>\n
I gave in.<\/p>\n
a a sidelong look. Her face was pale and tense.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe\u2019s shy.\u201d I said. \u201cIf she swallows this humiliation, she\u2019ll probably make trouble for me later. You want answer? I will give you the answer by tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n
Philip spoke up. \u201cThere are no cameras inside the mansion rooms, only in the hallways. The servants already showed me the footage. Jillian went into the room first, then Deanna went in. Desmond came in, and right then Jillian fell. He\u2019s the only witness.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIs that so?\u201d I pulled out my phone.<\/p>\n
\u201cBring me the rooftop footage from Cosmo Tower and the hallway surveillance.\u201d<\/p>\n
