MY CRUEL HUSBAND
BLURB:
“I love you, Micheal.” My voice echoes through the living room begging him to accept me with the unborn child, hoping my husband who has recently become cold toward me will consider my condition.
He stood there with his face, cold and tinged with contempt, fixing his gaze to the screen.
He said, “I never wanted a child with you. Raise it alone—or don’t.”
My heart skipped a beat. Tears began to well down my cheeks.

Chapter: CHAPTER 96OCCUR IN COINCIDENCE Maxwell’s POV My entire body locked as the figure stepped fully into the living room, the air around him charged with a presence I knew too well. For a fraction of a second, my mind betrayed me, dragging up old memories of polished marble floors, towering gates, and the suffocating weight of a mansion that had once been mine before it was stripped away. The scent I had associated with that world—expensive cologne, confidence sharpened to a blade, privilege worn like armor—hit me first. And then my eyes focused.“Daniel?” The name escaped me before I could stop it.He stood there, slightly out of breath, his hand still on the door as though he had pushed it open too hard in his haste. But there was no sneer on his face. No cold triumph. Only shock—mirroring my own—and something that looked dangerously close to concern.“Maxwell?” he said, scanning the room quickly before his gaze settled on me. “I—I didn’t mean to barge in like that.”The tension inside my chest

Chapter: CHAPTER 95THE VISITMaxwell POV Mr. Harrison shook his head slowly.“My wife and I have been blessed,” he said. “We have enough. More than enough. But what is the point of wealth if it cannot restore someone’s future?”Mira’s eyes glistened beside me.I could not speak. My mouth opened, but no words came out.Mr. Harrison exhaled.“Then I asked the manager about you,” he admitted. “And he told us your story.”The words made my chest twist.My story. The loss. The humiliation. The stolen inheritance.The pain I had been carrying like a secret wound.Mr. Harrison continued, “When I heard what happened to your parents… and how your family property was taken… I felt anger. Not just sympathy. Anger. Because no young man should have to carry such weight alone.”I lowered my gaze, my eyes burning.Just then, footsteps sounded from the staircase.A woman appeared, descending with grace. She was the same woman from the restaurant—kind eyes, gentle smile, the kind of face that made you feel safe.She ap

Chapter: CHAPTER 94REFLECTION VISIT Maxwell POV That night, even after my shift ended, sleep refused to come quickly.I lay on my narrow bed, staring at the ceiling as though the cracked paint might suddenly rearrange itself into a new destiny. My body was exhausted, my legs heavy, my hands still smelling faintly of soup and dishwater, but my heart was restless—alive in a way it had not been for weeks.A sponsorship. The word kept echoing in my mind like a sacred chant.It sounded too good to be real. Like the kind of miracle people whispered about in churches, the kind that only happened to strangers in testimonies, not to boys like me who had been stripped of everything and thrown into humiliation.Yet, it had happened. Someone had seen me. Not Maxwell Foster the fallen heir. But Maxwell Foster the boy trying not to drown.And for the first time since the mansion was taken, since my world collapsed, I did not feel like life was only punishing me. I felt like life had paused—just for a moment—to offe

Chapter: CHAPTER 93UNEXPECTED FAVOUR Maxwell’s POV I blinked rapidly, but the tears rose anyway, burning behind my eyes like fire. I lowered my face slightly, ashamed of my weakness, but Mira’s gaze did not judge me. It only softened further.“They said they want to help you,” Mira concluded gently. “They said they want to sponsor your education. They want to make sure you finish school. They want to make sure you reach university. They said you deserve that chance.”My hands trembled as they rested on the table. I could not speak. I could not even breathe properly.Joy rose in my chest like a sudden flood, warm and overwhelming, but sorrow followed closely behind it. Because the news was beautiful, yet it also reminded me of how broken my life had become. It reminded me that Maxwell Foster who once had unlimited access to education now needed strangers to sponsor his future.The irony was bitter. Yet the kindness was sweeter than anything I had tasted in months.My eyes filled completely, and a tear

Chapter: CHAPTER 92HELPMaxwell’s POV The evening arrived quietly, slipping into the restaurant like a familiar guest. The sun had already lowered itself beyond the horizon, leaving behind a dim orange glow that clung to the windows like fading warmth. The atmosphere inside the restaurant shifted with the night. The crowd grew thicker. The laughter became louder. The plates clattered more frequently, and the voices of customers blended into a restless hum that filled every corner of the space.My body, however, had begun to protest.My legs felt heavy, as though stones had been tied to my ankles. My back ached from constant movement, and my fingers were sore from gripping trays and writing orders repeatedly. Yet I did not complain. I could not complain. Fatigue was now part of my life, just like grief. Just like hunger. Just like the bitter memory of what I once had.I had been running around for hours, taking orders, serving food, apologizing for delays, cleaning tables, and forcing smiles even when m

Chapter: CHAPTER 91REWARDED Maxwell POV The food Mira brought to me sat on the table like a quiet act of mercy. The aroma rose gently, warm and inviting, but my heart was still too heavy to enjoy it fully. For a moment, I only stared at it, as though the plate was a reminder of how far I had fallen—how the boy who once ate in luxury now had to be fed in a restaurant like a stranger.Yet, as I watched Mira walk away to continue her duties, I realized something that humbled me even more than hunger. She did not bring the food because she pitied me. She brought it because she believed in me. She brought it like someone offering strength, not charity. Like someone telling me silently that I still had value.I swallowed hard and stood up.My body still carried the exhaustion of the day, the humiliation of the classroom, and the invisible bruises of whispered insults. But I forced my shoulders straight. I forced my feet to move. Because I could no longer afford to sit down and mourn the life I lost. The wor

Chapter: CHAPTER 30THE MAN IN SHADOW Lena's POV The forest changed as we walked. Not visibly at first. The trees were still tall, their trunks thick and ancient. But the air shifted from chaotic magic to something more controlled. The hidden market’s noise faded completely, replaced by a deep, unsettling silence.He walked ahead of me without looking back, his cloak barely brushing the ground despite the uneven terrain. I studied his movements carefully. There was nothing rushed in them. No nervous energy. He did not behave like someone who had just purchased property.He behaved like someone who had reclaimed something.My wolf moved cautiously within me, no longer suppressed but not fully relaxed either. She did not sense immediate threat. But she did not sense safety.After several minutes, I spoke.“Why?” My voice sounded steadier than I felt.He did not slow.“Why what?”“Why me?”The question felt fragile leaving my mouth. He stopped walking then. Slowly, he turned.Even in the dim light, I coul

Chapter: CHAPTER 29SOLD IN THE HIDDEN MARKET Lena's POV I knew something was wrong the moment they blindfolded me.Not the rough, careless kind of wrong I had grown used to in my parents’ house. Not the familiar sting of a slap or the suffocating weight of humiliation. This was colder. Calculated. Ritualistic.They did not speak to me as they bound my wrists with silver-threaded rope. Silver did not burn my skin fully, but it weakened me enough to keep my wolf subdued. She paced inside me restlessly, claws scraping against the walls of my consciousness, but she could not surface. The ropes hummed faintly with enchantment.I did not cry. Not because I was brave. But because I was too tired.The cart they threw me into smelled of iron and damp wood. When it began to move, I felt every jolt in my bones. I tried to count the turns, the slopes, the time between stops, but eventually the forest swallowed all sense of direction. My wolf strained to mark territory, to map scent and sound, but the air itself f

Chapter: CHAPTER 28MALTREATMENT Lena's POV My father grabbed my arm suddenly and yanked me forward.His grip was cruel, his fingers digging into my skin like claws.“Stop talking!” he snarled. “Stop making excuses! You are the danger. You are the curse!”The words shattered something inside me.Curse.That word again.The same word the pack had used for years.The same label that had followed me like a shadow.I felt tears spill down my cheeks, but I did not wipe them. I did not have the strength.My mother pointed toward the kitchen like a judge passing sentence.“Go and wash the dishes,” she ordered coldly. “Every plate. Every pot. Every cup. And if I see one stain, you will regret being born.”I stared at her.Not because I was surprised.But because the pain of hearing it again—after I had tasted love—was unbearable.This was the part that destroyed me the most.Not the slap.Not the insult.But the return.The return to the old cruelty, as though those few days of hope had only been a cruel joke

Chapter: CHAPTER 27ELDER'S CONTEMPTLena's POV The news did not arrive like a whisper. It arrived like a blade.It was late afternoon when the council guards appeared at our doorstep, their heavy boots grinding against the stones of our yard as though they had come to announce a death. My mother had been inside folding clothes, my father seated outside, sharpening his hunting knife with the slow patience of a man who believed he still had control over his life.But the moment the guards stepped forward, my father’s hands paused.And my mother’s breath caught.In our pack, guards did not visit a family’s home unless the matter was serious. Unless shame was about to be delivered like a verdict.They did not greet us warmly. They did not smile. They only bowed their heads slightly, with a formality that felt colder than winter.“The Elders request the presence of Mr. and Mrs. Hale,” one of them said.My father rose slowly, wiping his hands on his trousers.“What is it about?” he asked, his voice cautious.

Chapter: CHAPTER 26RONIN FLEE!Lena's POVThree days. That was how long it took for joy to begin rotting into fear.At first, I told myself Ronin was simply busy. He was a warrior—respected, admired, and constantly needed. The pack relied on him, and the elders trusted him. It was normal for a man like him to disappear for a while, especially after what had happened between us in the forest. After the kiss. After the strange wind. After the warning that had sliced through our moment like a blade.But as the hours became days, my reassurance began to sound like lies whispered to my own heart. The first day, I searched for him casually.I went to the training ground, hoping I would find him among the warriors, his broad shoulders gleaming under the sun, his presence commanding without effort. But the field was filled with others. Strong men. Loud men. Men who laughed and sparred and bled.Yet Ronin was nowhere. The second day, I searched more desperately.I walked near the patrol routes, along the pack bo

Chapter: CHAPTER 25GENUINE CONVERSATIONLens's POV The wind did not last long, yet its presence lingered like a bruise on the air.For several seconds after it stopped, Ronin remained still, his body tense, his gaze fixed on the forest as though he expected the trees themselves to reveal an enemy. I could feel his heartbeat through the closeness between us—steady, powerful, protective. My own heart beat faster, not from love now, but from instinctive fear.My wolf stayed silent, unusually withdrawn, as though she too was listening to something deeper than sound.The forest, which had moments ago felt like a sacred sanctuary, now felt like a trap dressed in beauty. Ronin finally exhaled, slow and controlled, though his eyes remained sharp.“We should go,” he said quietly.I nodded without argument. Something about the wind had unsettled me too deeply to resist. I did not know what it meant, but I knew it was not normal. I knew it was not harmless.Ronin reached for my hand, and the moment our fingers in
