••• Victoria’s POV ••• I woke up the next day in one of the guest rooms and knew what time it was without even checking my phone. But just to make sure, I checked the time, and just as I expected, it was only 5 AM. Waking up at this time had become a habit my body had developed since the day I started to try to please Elijah. I was always the one who prepared his breakfast, even when I’d never cooked during the early days of our marriage. How cringe and pathetic was that? All those efforts and what I gained were a betrayal. But that was the past, and I wouldn’t let it happen again in the future, even if I was mated to someone else. Elijah had prepared a room for Alpha Damien, and honestly, I didn’t know why he wanted to stay here while we could go back to his pack after that
