Taking a deep breath, i xthed down my shit and walked toward the front of the shop. I spotted him immediately—sitting alone at a window table phone in hand, hem furrowed in concentration. Sunlight streamed through the glass, highlighting the sharp angles of his face He looked different here, less like the renowned healer and more like a man with something heavy on his mind.

approached his table, my footsteps light against the wooden floor. ‘Eldreth.”

He looked up, tucking his phone away. Relief flickered across his face before his expression settled into something more professional. Lysandra, I need to speak with you.”

“I’m working.” I gestured at my uniform, the coffee shop logo emblazoned across my chest. “Is it urgent?”

Eldreth glanced around the shop, noting the curious stares from other customers. “I can wait until you’re finished. His fingers drummed once against the tabletop. “How long is your shift?”

From behind the counter, Eleanor caught my eye, raising her eyebrows in silent question. I gave her a small nod, indicating everything was

Ill have a mocha while I wait,” Eldreth said, his voice carrying just enough to be heard across the quiet shop.

T be right back with your order,‘ I replied, slipping back behind the counter.

As I prepared his drink, I felt the weight of stares from my coworkers. Jenna, one of the younger baristas, nudged me while I steamed the milk.

“Who’s the hottie?” she whispered, glancing not–so–subtly in Eldreth’s direction. “He hasn’t taken his eyes off you since you walked away.”

I focused on the espresso machine, determined not to look back and confirm her observation. “Just a friend.”

“Right, Jenna smirked. “A friend who looks like that. Those cheekbones could cut glass.”

Other female staff members had now gathered near the preparation area, all trying to catch glimpses of Eldreth while pretending to work. The sudden attention made my skin prickle with irritation.

Is be your boyfriend?” Another barista asked, eyes wide with interest.

“No, he’s just a friend,” I repeated, more firmly this time.

Eleanor approached, shooing the others back to work with a flick of her wrist. When we were relatively alone, she leaned in close.

“Everything okay?” she asked, her voice low with concern.

I sighed, keeping my voice down. “That’s Dr. Eldreth Frostwhisper. He’s been treating my brother.”

Eleanor’s eyes widened, her jaw dropping slightly. “The famous healer Eldreth Frostwhisper? Treating your brother personally?” She looked back.

Pred preparing Eldreth’s mocha, adding a precise swirl of chocolate on top.

Do you mind #1 take a break to talk with him?” I asked Eleanor. ‘I promise I’ll make up the time later.”

She waved her hand dismissively. “Family comes first, Lysandra. Take all the time you need.” Her eyes twinkled mischievously. And maybe consider taking Dr. Handsome for a spin too–purely for medicinal purposes, of course.”

Till pretend didn’t hear that,” I replied, but gave her a grateful smile nonetheless.

1 carried Eldreth’s mocha to his table, careful to maintain enough distance between us as I set it down. The ceramic cup clinked softly against The wooden surface.

Thank you.” he said, not touching the drink. His eyes locked with mine instead, his expression turning serious. “I’ve been continuing research

on your brother’s condition.”

Sliding into the seat across from him, I leaned forward. “Have you found anything?”

He nodded once, reaching into his jacket pocket to retrieve a tablet. The sleek device reflected the overhead lights as he placed it on the table

between us.

“I need to show you something first,” he said, voice dropping into a near whisper.

My heart raced. What had he found? Was there a cure for Alaric?

I came here for your safety, Eldreth continued, his gaze flicking briefly toward the door. “Especially after seeing what’s being said about you

and Tristan online.

I blinked, confusion washing over me. “What are you talking about?”

Around us, I noticed the entire staff trying to appear busy while obviously eavesdropping. One of them wasn’t even pretending, just staring openty at our table.

Eldreth tapped the tablet screen, bringing it to life. “Do you know you’ve become quite the topic of conversation in pack social media circles?”

He slid the device toward me, and I felt my blood run cold as I took in what was displayed on the screen.

The headline hit me like a slap: ‘Alpha Tristan is cheating on his girlfriend with his ex–wife?” Below it was a blurry but recognizable photo of Tristan gripping my wrist outside his company building. His expression was intense, possessive almost. The photo angle made the gesture look intimate rather than confrontational.

My fingers trembled as I scrolled through the comments beneath.

Selene deserves better than this. That ex–Luna is obviously using her children to seduce Alpha Tristan back.”

“Once a Luna always a Laina? More like once a homewrecker always a homewrecker!

Poor Selene, having to deal with this shameless ex trying to steal her man.”

Someone had even dug up rumors from our divorce: “She couldn’t keep him satisfied the first time, what makes her think she can now?”

Those fucking vultures,” I hissed, my vision blurring with angry tears. “How dare they?”
