I glared at Desmond, who was still floundering in the pool after I’d kicked him in. The sight of him made me sick. I wanted to drag him out and hit him again.

But I didn’t waste more time on him. I hurriedly checked on Deanna, who fell on the ground.

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.

The hem of her expensive gown was torn, leaving her looking completely wrecked and fragile. She looked like she was about to be

crushed in a storm.

Damn it.

I was running late for a few minutes because I had to stop by somewhere. And she ended up in this state?

Rage burned in my chest.

I maintained a stern expression as I approached her. Pulling off my jacket, I draped it over Deanna’s shoulders.

I wasn’t concerned about the whispers circling us. I crouched down, lifted my hand, and gently wiped the blood from the corner of

her mouth.

“Who did this to you?”

Deanna kept her head lowered and turned her face away.

I caught her chin and tilted her face up to face me, not giving her a choice. —

Her eyes were red, her lips pressed together, but she didn’t cry.

That stubborn fire in her gaze made my chest ache with both anger and pain.

“Who hit you?” I asked again, my tone sharp.

My eyes swept coldly across the crowd.

The crowd took a step back, avoiding my stare.

Behind me came the splash of water. Desmond dragged himself out of the pool, soaked and shivering.

He shouted, voice cracking, “Who has the nerve to touch me? Do you even know who I am? I’m the next Alpha of Mistbane Pack!”

“Shut your mouth, fool!” Philip roared.

Then, forcing a smile, he hurried toward me.

“Mr. Eaton, forgive us. We didn’t welcome you properly. This is a private pack matter, and I’m sorry you had to witness it.”

“Dad!” Desmond snapped “He kicked me in–how can you humble yourself to him?”

“Shut up, you fool!” Philip barked back. “This is the Alpha of Mooncrown Pack.”

I didn’t waste time listening to their argument. My eyes locked on Desmond. “The slap on Deanna’s face… You did that, didn’t you?”

Desmond’s lips trembled. He couldn’t say a word.

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.

Then I rose to my feet and took slow, deliberate steps toward him.

Desmond went pale and took a step back.

The next second, I yanked his shirt collar hard and slammed his head down onto the ground.

“Arghh!”

A gasp ran through the crowd.

didn’t stop. My fingers tightened. I smashed his head down again and again. With each strike I hissed a question.

‘Like hitting women?

“Like kicking people?

‘Like dragging people around?

“You like that, huh?”

Every question came with another slam.

Blood from Desmond’s head quickly stained the pavement.

“Arghhh, please stop!”

Desmond wailed, begging through the pain. “Let me go! I was wrong. I won’t do it again!”

My parents died early. My grandmother raised me with strict discipline as the Alpha of the Mooncrown Pack.

That elite upbringing made me arrogant, cold, and ruthless by nature.

If I hadn’t met Deanna back then, I would have become even more brutal and merciless.

Thinking of that scumbag slapping Deanna made me want to kick him to death.

“Mr. Eaton!” Kathryn suddenly rushed over.

“This is an internal pack matter. Deanna pushed Jillian from the window. As Luna, I have the right to handle this dispute fairly. It’s not appropriate for you to interfere.”

I let go of the barely conscious Desmond and took a towel nearby, slowly wiping my hands.

I shot Kathryn a cool look. “Are you sure Deanna did it?” Lasked.

“I didn’t do it.” Deanna’s voice rang out then, stubborn and trembling.

The sight of her eased most of the hostility in my chest.

I walked over and bent close to her ear, my voice low and soothing.

“Haha. Even if you did push her, so what? Better you push than someone push you. If she’s crippled, I’ll cover for you. But if you end up crippled, how could I live with that?”

“You-!” Kathryn’s breath hitched.

“Mr. 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’t you worried people will laugh at you if this gets out?”

I gave in.

a a sidelong look. Her face was pale and tense.

“She’s shy.” I said. “If she swallows this humiliation, she’ll probably make trouble for me later. You want answer? I will give you the answer by tonight.”

Philip spoke up. “There 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’s the only witness.”

“Is that so?” I pulled out my phone.

“Bring me the rooftop footage from Cosmo Tower and the hallway surveillance.”
