Chapter 110 You Love Him, Don\u2019t You?<\/p>\n
Jake\u2019s POV:<\/p>\n
Her words cut deep. My chest ached at this.<\/p>\n
I forced myself to ask, \u201cDeanna, are you saying there\u2019s no chance for us anymore?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
Her answer was firm, without the slightest pause.<\/p>\n

She didn\u2019t look at me again. Instead, she grabbed a cookie off the plate and shoved it into her mouth like I wasn\u2019t even standing there.<\/p>\n
I dropped my gaze. My fingers clenched so hard around the slice of blueberry cake that my knuckles turned white.<\/p>\n
The harder I tried to hold on, the colder she became.<\/p>\n
It was like her heart had turned to stone, sealed off completely.<\/p>\n
In her eyes, I no longer existed.<\/p>\n
As the alpha of the Olsendreich Pack, I had never lowered myself like this for any woman. Begging wasn\u2019t in my nature. Yet here I was.<\/p>\n
I asked myself a thousand times\u2013why does it have to be Deanna?<\/p>\n
If the last five years were just habit, then I could build that habit with someone else. Find another woman. Move on.<\/p>\n
But the moment I imagined anyone else in her place, the thought made me sick.<\/p>\n
That was when I finally understood. This wasn\u2019t habit. This was love.<\/p>\n
Even if another alpha, stronger and more powerful than me, stood by her side, I still couldn\u2019t let her go.<\/p>\n
Just then, the soft melody of a waltz drifted from the center of the ballroom.<\/p>\n
Couples in elegant gowns and suits stepped onto the dance floor, spinning gracefully under the golden lights.<\/p>\n

1 stared at Deanna\u2019s back as she walked away. A sudden rush of impulse burned through me, pushing away my fear and doubt.<\/p>\n
I strode after her. And just before she reached Violet, I reached out without hesitation.<\/p>\n
Before she could react, I caught her hand. With one smooth turn of my wrist, I spun her in rhythm with the music.<\/p>\n
The next moment, I led her straight onto the dance floor, our steps falling into place with the waltz.<\/p>\n
Deanna\u2019s POV:<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat are you doing, Jake?\u201d<\/p>\n
I stumbled back a step, trying to break free from his grip.<\/p>\n
Reporters were everywhere tonight, and the last thing I wanted was to end up on the front page. I lowered my voice.<\/p>\n
\u201cDo you know what this looks like right now? You\u2019re being clingy.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m sorry. I just wanted to talk to you seriously,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
I turned my face away, my voice sharp and cold. \u201cThis relationship is over for me. Your apology doesn\u2019t matter anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n
As I said it, I glanced to the side without meaning to and froze. Luis was staring right at me. His gaze was dark and heavy.<\/p>\n
My heart clenched, and a chill ran down my back.<\/p>\n
Even if Luis and I had no future, I couldn\u2019t help fearing he\u2019d misunderstand.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, I love you. I don\u2019t want us to be a past.\u201d Jake\u2019s voice cut into my thoughts.<\/p>\n
I snapped back, impatient. \u201cBut I don\u2019t love you. I\u2019ve told you again and again\u2014I don\u2019t feel anything for you!\u201d<\/p>\n
Jake followed my line of sight, his voice rough. \u201cYou\u2019ve fallen for him, haven\u2019t you?\u201d<\/p>\n
I didn\u2019t answer.<\/p>\n
That was my personal feeling. I don\u2019t see the need for me to answer his question.<\/p>\n

Jake looked at me. His eyes reddened as he whispered, \u201cHow could I not know you? It\u2019s been five years. I know what you look like when your eyes light up.\u201d<\/p>\n
Then his voice grew lower. \u201cDeanna, even if there\u2019s no chance for us, I don\u2019t want you to get hurt. Being with Luis will only end badly.\u201d<\/p>\n
I lifted my head and curved my lips into a smile. \u201cWell, thank you. It\u2019s sweet of an ex to care so much about my love life.\u201d<\/p>\n
