Claimed By The Billionaire Ex Bloodlines
Chapter 77: Bloodlines Aurora’s POVBy the time Alex finally fell asleep, my bones ached with the kind of exhaustion that went deeper than my body.He had fought bedtime harder than usual. I thought at first that I had done something to spook him and I apologized but he shook his head instead. Placing his two hands on the sides of my face as he told me that I don't have gone sad.I brushed my lips over his curls, inhaling the familiar scent of soap and warmth and something that was uniquely him. “I'm not sad, baby,” I whispered, even though he was already asleep."You sure?" He asked me.I nodded."Now get some sleep okay?" I asked him.He gave me a sceptical look that reminded me of Jace but then settled in the bed.I stayed longer than necessary, sitting on the edge of the bed, watching his chest rise and fall. The room was dim, the small night lamp casting soft shadows against the walls. Outside, the house was quiet in a way that felt almost deceptive—like the world was holding i
Claimed By The Billionaire Ex No One Touches My Son
Chapter 76: No One Touches My SonJace’s POVI sent the pictures and locked my phone.For exactly three seconds, I allowed myself to breathe.Then the rage came.It was quiet at first—cold, precise, settling into my bones instead of exploding outward. The kind of anger that didn’t need noise to be lethal. Funny how it took me time to feel the rage. How I first made sure Aurora wasn't mad at me before the rage overtook me.Alex’s face was on the internet.Strangers had taken something that was mine—something fragile, innocent, unprotected—and turned it into content. Headlines. Speculation. Entertainment.They hadn’t asked for permission. They just took like they always did, not minding the fact that it may hurt the people they were taking from. And what even annoyed me.more sad the fact that they didn't even blur his face.I stood from the couch slowly, my jaw tight, my shoulders rigid. The house no longer felt empty. It felt violated.I picked up my phone again and scrolled then place
Claimed By The Billionaire Ex The Quiet After
Chapter 75: The Quiet AfterJace’s POVI stared at my phone long after the call ended, the screen dark, my reflection faintly staring back at me like it was waiting for confirmation that what had just happened was real.Aurora and I had spoken.Really spoken.No venom. No sharp edges. No cold distance masquerading as control. She hadn’t raised her voice. She hadn’t accused me. She hadn’t looked for a place to wound me and twist the knife to hurt me neither had I done it either.She had been… kind. The conversation was without arguments or someone crying at the end.That alone felt disorienting.I shifted on the couch, elbows resting on my knees, phone still cradled in my hands. My thumb hovered uselessly over the screen, as if I expected it to light up again on its own, replay the call, remind me I hadn’t imagined it.We’ll talk later.Aurora never said things like that these days. Aurora ended conversations with finality, with punctuation marks that felt like slammed doors. Later imp
Claimed By The Billionaire Ex Fault Lines
Chapter 74: Fault LinesAurora’s POVI answered the call on the third ring after ending the call with Kelsey.“Jace—”“I’m sorry.”The word came out of him rushed and rough, like he’d been holding his breath for too long. He didn’t wait for me to respond.“I had no idea this was going to happen,” he continued, fast, apologetic, almost panicked. “I didn’t even think it would. I was just spending time with Alex. I wasn’t thinking about cameras or people or the internet. I swear to you, Aurora, this wasn’t intentional. Please don’t be annoyed at me—”“Jace,” I cut in gently.He stopped mid-sentence.The silence on the line stretched for a beat, then another. I could hear his breathing—too fast, too shallow.“I’m not annoyed at you,” I said calmly.He exhaled deeply and a part of me was trying to reconcile this Jace from now with the Jace from before. The Jace i knew would even blink twice about him and Alex being circulated round the internet. He would not even care but this Jace...he ca
Claimed By The Billionaire Ex Panicking: This Wasn't Supposed to Happen
Chapter 73: Panicking: This Wasn't Supposed to HappenJace’s POVThe drive back to my house felt longer than it had any right to be.The streets were quiet, washed in that late-evening calm that usually settled my nerves. Tonight, it didn’t. I parked in the driveway, turned off the engine, and sat there for a moment longer than necessary, my hands resting on the steering wheel as the reality of the day finally caught up to me.Alex was home now. Aurora wasn't mad at me and that was okay. I was glad.I planned to send pictures I took if Alex to my grandma and Devon so they could stop pestering me but that was going to happen later.I exhaled slowly and stepped out of the car, the sound of the door closing echoing louder than usual in the stillness. When I unlocked the front door and walked in, the house greeted me with a familiar emptiness—clean, orderly, silent.Too silent.The television was still on.I froze for half a second before remembering. The cartoon. I must have left it runn
Claimed By The Billionaire Ex When the World Found Him
Chapter 72: When the World Found HimAurora’s POVI glanced at the screen, already knowing who it was. I was sure she was calling to know how Alex's day had gone.“Kels,” I answered lightly, tucking the phone between my shoulder and ear. “can you call me bac..."“Alex’s picture is everywhere.”I laughed before she could finish. It slipped out of me easily, instinctively. “That’s not funny.”“I’m not joking.”I shook my head, still smiling. “Okay, seriously. You need to stop. I just want to..."“Aurora,” she said, sharper now. “I’m telling you the truth. His picture is all over the internet."My smile faltered.“What do you mean?" I asked her.“Hold on, I'm sending the link to you.”There was no humor in her voice anymore.The line went dead before I could respond.I stared at my phone for a second, then set it down on the counter. My first instinct was annoyance. Kelsey had a flair for exaggeration, and the idea of Alex—my Alex—circulating online like some piece of celebrity gossip wa
