Reborn To Seduce My Bully's Alpha Father
WerewolfFirst-Person POVAlphaLycanHeir/HeirnessRejectRebornRevenge
I died at eighteen, three months after rejecting the Lycan heir who thought a mate bond meant I belonged to him.
Caden Ashford destroyed my life for saying no. He got my parents fired, spread vicious rumors, and when we fled the territory in desperation, our brakes failed on a mountain road. I died watching my parents bleed out, wondering if he'd sabotaged the car or if fate just hated me that much.
Then I woke up at the party where it all started.
This time I have a plan. That stranger I kissed to piss off Caden? Turns out he's Matthias Ashford, Caden's father and the most powerful Lycan Alpha in the region. Cold, ruthless, and a notorious playboy who never sleeps with the same woman twice.
Perfect.
I get a job at his estate as a maid. I seduce the untouchable Alpha. I make myself indispensable. And when Caden realizes his rejected mate is sleeping with his father? That's when the real fun begins.
Matthias thinks I'm just a rebellious teenager playing dangerous games. He has no idea I'm the quiet girl everyone underestimates, the one who remembers exactly how the next three months play out, who knows where all the bodies are buried, who will do whatever it takes to rewrite my fate.
Caden wants to own me. Matthias wants to possess me. The Lycan Council wants to control me.
But I'm done being anyone's victim.
I survived death once. This time I'm going to burn down everyone who tried to destroy me.
And if I have to become my bully's stepmother to do it? Even better.

Chapter: What comes nextChapter 200 The estate was quiet at ten in the evening. The particular quiet that had become familiar across the year, not empty, never empty, just the building existing in its own company after the day's work was done. Dante's security rotation moving at its steady pace. The perimeter lights holding the grounds in their careful amber. The upper west wing warm and lit. Aria was in the library. Not working. Just present, the way she was present in rooms now without requiring them to be doing anything. A book open in her lap that she hadn't been reading for twenty minutes. The fire low. The pendant warm at her throat. She had been thinking about nothing specific. That was new. The capacity for nothing specific. The ability to sit in a quiet room without a calculation running, without a threat being assessed, without the particular vigilance of someone who understood what happened when they stopped paying attention. She was still paying attention. Just differently now. Her phone

Chapter: At the gateChapter 199She went to the gate on a Thursday morning for no particular reason.Not leaving. Not arriving. Not meeting anyone or seeing anyone off or performing any of the functions that gates existed to facilitate. Just walking down the private drive in the autumn morning with her coffee going cold in her hand and the particular quality of a person who had decided to stand somewhere and look at something properly.The drive took five minutes at the pace she walked it.She had walked it hundreds of times now. In both directions, in all weathers, in all the moods that a year inside this estate had produced. She knew the places where the gravel was thinner, the spot near the third lamp post where the drainage wasn't quite right and water pooled after rain, the section of hedge that the groundskeeping crew always missed slightly on the left side.She knew it the way you knew things you had lived alongside until they became part of the texture of your own life.She reached the gate and s

Chapter: One more questionChapter 198The question had been sitting with her since the safehouse.Not urgently. Not as something that needed immediate resolution. Just present, the way certain questions were present when you'd decided they deserved a real moment rather than a sideways approach.She had been waiting for the right evening.This was the right evening.They were in the sitting room after dinner. The fire had burned down to something low and steady. The estate was quiet in its particular late-night way. Matthias had his files open on the table beside him but wasn't reading them, the particular quality of a man whose body was at rest even when his mind was still running.Aria was curled into the corner of the sofa with her legs tucked under her. Not reading. Not working. Just present in the room the way she'd learned to be present in rooms without requiring them to be doing anything."I have a question," she said.He looked up.Not alarmed. Just attentive. He'd learned, across the year, the specific

Chapter: The estate at nightChapter 197The estate was quieter at night than it was in the day.Not empty, it was never fully empty, with Dante's security rotation and the overnight staff and the particular alive quality of a large property that had learned, over the years it had been properly inhabited, to keep its own rhythm regardless of who was awake inside it. But quieter. The particular quality of a building that had let the day go and was existing in its own company for a while.The dining room was lit warmly.Not the formal dining room, they didn't use that for just the two of them, hadn't since the early weeks when the formality had been a useful structure and had since become unnecessary. The smaller room off the kitchen, with the table that sat six and was usually set for two, with the window that looked out onto the south garden and the particular quality of autumn darkness that made the garden look like it was being kept somewhere safe until morning.Matthias and Aria sat across from each other.Dan

Chapter: The things about plansChapter 96The plan had been clean.That was what I remembered most about it, sitting here now nearly a year later. The specific cleanness of it at five in the morning in a dorm room with Elena asleep across from me and my phone screen the only light and the decision forming with the particular clarity that arrived when everything else had been stripped away by exhaustion and grief and the specific urgency of someone who understood exactly how much time they had.Seduce the father. Get protection. Make Caden call me stepmother.Three steps. One outcome. Cold logic in service of survival.It had been, in its own way, elegant.I sat in the library now and thought about that girl.Not with distance, she wasn't far away, she was me, the same person at an earlier point on a line that had curved considerably since. But with a kind of affectionate recognition. The recognition you gave to earlier versions of yourself when you understood what they didn't yet know.She had been so certain the p

Chapter: Waiting What is still unresolvedChapter 195I made a list on a Tuesday morning.Not because lists were how I processed things anymore I had moved past the notebook phase, past the obsessive cataloguing of threats and timelines and what needed managing next. I made this list because the year was approaching something that felt like a pause, and pauses were the right time to look honestly at what remained rather than pretending the pause was a conclusion.I sat at the desk by the library window with the morning light coming through and wrote it plainly.Cassius.He was in European territory. Had been for months. The court's review of his fabricated family record was ongoing, moving at the pace of legal processes that served justice rather than urgency, which was slow and correct and insufficient for the specific impatience of knowing that a patient man was sitting somewhere across an ocean waiting for his next viable angle.He would find one eventually.I didn't know its shape yet. Neither did Dante, whose intelligenc

Chapter: A Name in the fileChapter 16Isabella's POVI could not sleep that night, my mind still circling restlessly around my father's strange confession at dinner, the mysterious widower who had refused a marriage alliance twice without so much as an explanation offered in return.Curiosity, I had learned long ago, was rarely a comfortable companion. It sat now in my chest like a smouldering coal, refusing to let me rest, until finally, sometime past midnight, I gave up entirely on sleep and slipped quietly out of my room instead.The house lay silent around me, the corridors lit only by the pale glow of security lamps filtering through tall windows, casting long, shifting shadows across the polished floor. My bare feet made no sound against the cool marble as I made my way toward my mother's private study, the small room at the end of the east wing where she kept records of every alliance, every donation, every family connection our name had ever touched.I told myself I was simply looking for information on

Chapter: The marriage conditionChapter 15Isabella's POVThe dining room smelled of rice and grilled fish, the same fragrant blend my mother's cook had prepared every Sunday of my childhood, and for one brief, foolish moment, standing in that doorway, I allowed myself to pretend the last seven years had never happened at all.My father sat at the head of the table, his reading glasses perched low on his nose, a stack of documents spread neatly before him despite the food already steaming in serving dishes around it. He looked up as I entered, and something in his expression softened, though he quickly masked it beneath his usual composed formality."Sit, Isabella." He gestured to the chair across from him, the same seat I had occupied as a girl, and I lowered myself into it slowly, my heart already thudding with quiet unease at the seriousness etched across his face.My mother hovered near the sideboard, wringing her hands slightly, refusing to meet my eyes, which told me, more clearly than any words could, that wh

Chapter: The hart empireChapter 14Isabella's POVThe Hart Corporation building rose taller than I remembered, glass and steel catching the morning sun in blinding sheets, the same tower my grandfather had raised decades ago from nothing but stubbornness and ambition, the same tower I had walked away from without so much as a backward glance seven years earlier.My father stood beside me at the entrance, silent, his jaw tight, his eyes carefully avoiding mine even now. Things between us remained fragile, unspoken apologies still sitting heavy and unaddressed on both our tongues, but he had come, at least, dressed in his finest suit, to walk me through those doors himself. That, I decided, was enough of a beginning for one morning."Are you certain about this?" he asked quietly, his hand resting briefly on my shoulder as we approached the revolving doors, the closest thing to affection either of us had managed since my return."I have never been more certain of anything, Daddy." My voice came out steadier tha

Chapter: Going homeChapter 13Isabella's POVI stared at my mother's contact for a long while before I finally pressed call, my thumb hovering over the screen the way it might hover over the edge of a cliff.She had never truly given up on me, not once in all these years, even when I gave her every reason to. She was the one who called whenever her spies within Marcus's circle whispered that I looked tired, or thinner, or sadder than the last time someone had seen me. She was the one who pleaded, again and again, for me to come home, long before I ever had the courage to consider it seriously. It was my father who had gone silent, who had disowned me outright the day I chose Marcus over the life they built for me, his pride too wounded, I suspected, to ever be the one to call first.Perhaps it is time I stopped making her beg.The house was quiet around me, the afternoon light slanting gold and heavy through the sitting room windows, dust motes drifting lazily in the beam like tiny, unbothered spirits.

Chapter: The PapersChapter 12Isabella's POVI did not sleep that night, though I lay in bed long enough for the ceiling above me to blur into shapeless grey shadow, my mind replaying Marcus's laughter over and over until it wore a groove into the back of my skull.You will be crawling back within the month. You always do.By the time the sun rose, thin and pale through my bedroom curtains, something in me had hardened past the point of return. I rose up and showered until the water ran cold, and sat down at the small writing desk in the corner of my room, i lodged in the hostel, i can't find myself going back to that house, after everything that happened.I opened my laptop and pulled up the divorce documents again, The first one Marcus refused to sign it, I'm drifting another one, he has no choice, I'm not that naive again. My fingers moved steadily across the keyboard, correcting clauses, tightening language around the custody surrender I no longer needed to word so gently, since Chloe was never trul

Chapter: Seven years of liesChapter 11Isabella's POV"That bracelet." The words scraped out of me, thin and disbelieving, my eyes fixed on the sapphire winking against Selena's wrist under the office lights.She lifted her arm slightly, almost proudly, turning it so the gold caught the light better, as though I had complimented her rather than accused her."This old thing? Marcus gave it to me years ago. I did not realize it came with a receipt attached, darling." Her tone was light, playful even, the same tone she used to tease me over dinner in a life that now felt as though it belonged to a stranger."I cried over that bracelet." My voice shook, and I hated it, hated that even now, standing in the wreckage of everything, some small part of me still ached over something as foolish as jewellery. "I turned my whole house upside down looking for it. I apologized to the dry cleaners a dozen times for a mistake that was never mine to make."Selena only shrugged, unbothered, her hand curling more firmly around Marc
