Chapter 4
I hadn’t even caught up on sleep when Raine shook me awake.
“Elena, don’t sleep, quick, check the trending list!”
The top few hashtags on the trending list were all about the tangled love triangle between Damon, Genevieve, and me.

The entire pack was attacking Genevieve for being the other woman, and her social media account had been shut down instantly.
It was clear this was her doing.
I didn’t understand why she was willing
g to put herself in the spotlight like this.
That was until Damon showed up and slapped me without explanation.
“Elena, I never thought you could be so malicious. No wonder you didn’t react last night–you’d already planned on taking Genevieve down, hadn’t you?”
“Come with me to the hospital and apologize to her. Do you know that Genevieve has depression? She cut her wrists and almost killed herself because of you. Thankfully, I got there in time to s save her. Genevieve is kind–hearted; you ruined her career, but she’s not mad at you. She just wants you to apologize to her face and clear her name.‘
Clear her name?
Damon’s words made me laugh bitterly in fury.
“Don’t you know better than anyone whether she’s innocent?”
But Damon didn’t give me a chance to reject. He dragged me straight to the hospital.
Genevieve was lying in the hospital bed, her wrists bandaged, looking terribly weak.
Pack members crowded into the room.
“Luna, are the photos online real? Or did you make them up?”
“Luna, is Genevieve really the other woman? Could this affect the pack’s stability?”
As I was about to respond, Damon tightened his grip on my wrist and leaned close to my ear, his voice low.
My wrist was still bandaged, but I
no longer felt any pain.
“Elena, you know what to say and what not to say.”
I jerked my wrist out of his grasp, a mocking smile on my lips.
“Don’t worry, Alpha Damon. I’m here to clarify things today.”
In front of the pack members, I bowed to Genevieve.
“Genevieve, I’m sorry. You’re not the other woman. Last night, you were just looking for Alpha Damon, seeking refuge. It was my malice that led me to intentionally take a misleading, ambiguous photo of you and Alpha Damon and post it online. I even paid for a smear campaign against you.“”

Some of the pack members stepped forward to defend her.
“Luna, your apology isn’t sincere at all. Look at what you’ve done to Genevieve, she’s terrified now!”
Genevieve, who had been worried about how to cover up her lies, seized the opportunity and started pretending to suffer from
depression.
She grabbed her head, curled into a ball, her voice trembling as if in agony
“I’m not the other woman, I’m not the other woman! I’m just an admirer of Alpha Damon. If loving someone is a crime, then maybe I deserve to die…”
Damon, afraid she might hurt herself, pulled her into his arms.
“Genevieve, loving someone is not a crime. Don’t blame yourself.
He glanced at me, his eyes cold as ice.
“Elena, kneel and apologize to her!”
Genevieve hid in his arms, a smug smile playing on her lips.
