Sebastian's POV

The door clicked shut behind me, finally cutting off that suffocating tension-Marcus and his stormy temper were now sealed in with it.

Kane walked quietly at my side. I didn't need to say a word; he was already murmuring instructions-launch a full audit of the factory, sort out Julian and Davis, and start processing Cassandra's reassignment.

Clearly, she was no longer capable of keeping it together down here.

His quick response, as always, gave me a moment to breathe.

But my min

What happened to the mate bond that he felt? Why hasn’t it come up again? Or has that changed too after she turned human to wolf shifter between chapters?

  • After My Husband's Affair, I Met My True Love Alpha   Chapter 283 Let Me Teach You How to Win Him Back

    Seraphina's POVShe stared at me like I'd suddenly sprouted a second head.Then, right on cue, her face and neck turned beet red.Yep, she thought I was trying to humiliate her - on purpose."Seraphina, quit playing mind games! Yeah, I admit it - I'm not as good as you! I can't compare to the shiny new toy who's got him all wrapped around her finger! He kicked me out of Moonlight Bay because of you! Are you happy now? Enjoy it while it lasts, because soon enough, he won't even look at you anymore, either!""Well, you're not wrong," I said, nodding slightly, even giving her a polite look like I was evaluating her logic.Cassandra's mouth hung open.She was clearly waiting for me to snap back at her. Looking confused, like her mental script had gone off track.And I'll admit it - watching her freeze like her brain just blue-screened was... dull.After a few run-ins, it was obvious Cassandra didn't have the sharp tongue, th

  • After My Husband's Affair, I Met My True Love Alpha   Chapter 282 She's Back - and Uninvited

    Third Person's POVThe doorbell rang again - longer this time.Seraphina didn't even pause while chopping the tomatoes. Honestly, with everyone supposedly catching up on sleep, someone would eventually get annoyed enough to answer. It just wouldn't be her.Right on cue, hurried footsteps thudded down the stairs. Kane appeared, hair a mess, T-shirt wrinkled like he'd been dragged out of bed."Ms. Cassandra," he said, going with the safe and distant title now that she had nothing to do with the Shadow Pack Corporation anymore. "Miss" was neutral ground.Cassandra didn't wait for him to fully step aside before slipping past, acting like she still lived here or something. She'd once told Elinor she'd pull out voluntarily and make it to London first.Clearly, that wasn't the whole story. Elinor had already been thinking about cutting her off, worried her son might do something much harsher. But Cassandra had other plans. She'd landed at Heathrow

  • After My Husband's Affair, I Met My True Love Alpha   Chapter 281 Don't Worry, I'm Just His Guest

    Seraphina's POVThe moment I stepped off the plane and into the jet bridge, a gust of damp, cold wind smacked me right in the face. I shivered involuntarily - completely woke me up. Whatever sleepiness was left disappeared in an instant.Suddenly, I felt a weight on my shoulders. A man's blazer, still warm from the body heat, was draped over me.Sebastian was standing just half a step behind.I glanced down at the expensive dark jacket, my fingers twitching, tempted to shrug it off and hand it back."Just keep it on, Seraphina," I heard him say behind me. His voice was calm and composed, but there was a subtle rasp in it, like static breaking through a rainy night. "If you catch a cold, productivity takes a hit."Hard to argue with that kind of logic.So I left the jacket on, took the umbrella Mia handed over, and followed the others into the damp London night. Rain mist still managed to sneak under the umbrella, landing cold and shar

  • After My Husband's Affair, I Met My True Love Alpha   Chapter 280 You Killed What We Could Be

    Sebastian's POVIt felt like something invisible was squeezing my heart, tighter and tighter until I could barely breathe.I opened my mouth, but no words came out. Everything I'd planned to say just stuck in my throat, sounding utterly pointless now. She didn't want to hear it. Hell, she wasn't even willing to give me the chance.So I said nothing.I just looked at her - at that picture-perfect smile on her face, that relaxed posture leaning back in her seat like nothing ever happened between us. Or maybe whatever happened... never really mattered to her in the first place.That's Seraphina.She hides behind sunshine and sweet smiles, building walls that look warm but keep everyone out. No drama. No questions. Just quiet distance wrapped in perfect manners. When she decides a relationship is over, she doesn't yell - she simply closes the door with a smile so polite it's brutal.And I... I was completely helple

  • After My Husband's Affair, I Met My True Love Alpha   Chapter 279 You Never Chose Me

    Seraphina's POVHe didn't move. Just turned a bit, resting one arm on the small tray table in front of me, the other gripping the back of the chair I'd just left - blocking me in, right under his shadow. His gaze was darker now, shadowed with that stubborn, unshakable Alpha look. He stared at me for a few seconds."Alright," he said at last, sounding like he was giving in a little. "You don't want to talk, fine. But I need to say something. Just listen, okay?""Alpha," I shot back, loading my tone with extra impatience, "I'm kind of in a rush. Nature calls, you know how it is."The next second, his hand wrapped around mine. Big, warm, steady - and not letting go anytime soon. He stood too. "I'll go with you." Calm, but that Alpha firmness was all over it."That's not necessary." I yanked my hand, voice cooling fast. "Pretty sure there's no life-threatening situation waiting for me in the bathroom."He tightened his grip. Didn't let me go. Hi

  • After My Husband's Affair, I Met My True Love Alpha   Chapter 278 She's Not Talking to Me

    Third Person's POVThe car came to a stop at the airport's departure drop-off.Kane and Mason practically burst out like they were fleeing a freezer. In the blink of an eye, they hauled their luggage toward check-in with ridiculous speed - like one more second outside and they'd freeze solid.They were facing a twelve-hour flight.Which meant half a day stuck in a pressurized metal tube with nowhere to run.Mason's face changed instantly, regret hitting him like a truck. He grabbed Kane's arm and leaned in, keeping his voice low but panicked. "Kane, listen, maybe I skip this one? Just remembered - I freaking hate London."He shifted his body slightly, toes pointing back toward the terminal, clearly ready to bail.Kane shut that down fast. He shoved the rolling suitcase handles into Mason's chest and blocked the escape path. "You think I like this?" Kane's tone was rock-solid, no room for negotiation - like an order from higher-up. "Yo
