Chương 165: Hunted

Two months later…

Eliana couldn't believe how much happier she felt as a maid in a stranger's pack than she ever had in her own.

The difference was stark, almost surreal. Yet, there she was, humming her favorite tune while folding freshly laundered clothes in Alpha Kieran's packhouse.

But even in this newfound happiness, there were still worries that lingered in the back of her mind. Alpha Gabriel's relentless pursuit of her was always present, a constant reminder to remain cautious and vigilant.

Even in the safety of this new pack, she couldn't let her guard down completely. The threat of being discovered hung over her like a dark cloud, casting a shadow on an otherwise perfect existence.

She'd taken every precaution she could think of—dying her raven-black hair a vibrant red and using special herbs to suppress her wolf and its scent. It was risky, but it was her best chance at staying hidden.
