Dear Ex Mate, You're Mine to Ruin Chapter 172
Lillian’s POVMy heart stopped."Celeste?" I whispered, my voice cracking as I stared at the empty velvet chair. I spun around, grabbing the nanny’s shoulder with a grip that must have left bruises. "Where is Celeste? Where is my daughter?!"The nanny blinked, her eyes wide with sudden, absolute terror as she looked at the empty seat. "I…I don't know, Luna! She was right here just a second ago, looking at the stage, I swear….”I didn't wait to hear the rest. A wave of pure, suffocating panic surged through my veins. I bolted from the table, my heels clicking frantically against the polished floor as I ran. I searched the ladies' room, pushing open every single stall door, but they were all empty. I ran to the long buffet tables, pushing past startled guests, looking under the white tablecloths, screaming her name. I searched the hallways, the entrance lobby, and even located the perimeter guard who was specifically tasked with keeping an eye on her table.But there was no Celeste.Pan

Lillian’s POVIn an instant, the gentle hum of murmuring voices completely died down. Hundreds of faces turned in unison, their curious and judging eyes locking directly onto me. I was taken completely by surprise, my heart skipping a beat as the sudden, heavy spotlight of the room fell squarely on my shoulders.On stage, Aaron held his microphone with a smug, mocking smile. He gestured toward the stairs with an air of fake hospitality. "Please, Luna Lillian, come up to the stage. Introduce yourself to the people one more time. Let us all hear how the Luna of Fangshade carries herself in times of trouble."Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Dorian’s chair scrape violently against the floor. His broad shoulders were rigid with pure, suffocating rage, his hand already gripping the edge of his table as he prepared to stand up, ready to tear Aaron apart right in front of the cameras to defend my honor.But I didn't need him to fight this battle for me.Before Dorian could take a single st
Dear Ex Mate, You're Mine to Ruin Chapter 170
Lillian’s POVI held Celeste’s small hand tightly as I guided her out of the noisy, suffocating ballroom and down the quieter, dimly lit hallway toward the restrooms. The transition from the roaring chatter of the crowd to the quiet marble corridor was an instant relief, but the moment I pushed open the heavy door to the ladies' room, a strange sound caught my attention.From one of the locked stalls at the far end, I heard a woman sniffing softly in deep, heartbroken tears.I paused, but I didn't want to pry into high-society drama tonight. I quickly focused on Celeste, helping her into an open stall. By the time Celeste was finished washing her hands and we were finally about to leave, the door to the end stall slowly clicked open.Shantel walked out.Her eyes were red and slightly puffy, though she was desperately trying to hide it. She walked straight to the mirrors, pulling a compact from her designer clutch to powder her face and cover up the tear tracks. Our eyes locked in the

Lillian’s POV“Exclusive? This does not feel exclusive at all. It feels like a public dinner in a busy park,” I said very quietly to myself. I looked around the giant, noisy ballroom. My eyes were wide with shock. I could not believe what I was seeing.When Dorian first told me about this dinner party, I thought it would be a small, quiet meeting. I thought there would only be about thirty important guests from the highest families. I expected nice music, soft lights, and plenty of space to breathe. Instead, the grand hall was completely full of people. There were hundreds of shouting men and women. I saw greedy business investors, loud socialites, and very pushy reporters who were holding up small microphones.It was very easy to see what had happened. The people who made this party had lied. They told everyone the dinner was highly exclusive just to trick rich and powerful leaders like Dorian into coming here. They wanted all these big names in one single, crowded room so they could
Dear Ex Mate, You're Mine to Ruin Chapter 168
Dorian’s POVI stopped moving completely. My hands stayed on her soft shoulders. A sudden wave of surprise hit me hard. The Viremoor necklace was a very big secret. Only the Alphas of the most powerful families in the north knew its real name. Normal people did not even know it existed. They definitely did not know its history. So, how did Lillian know about it?"How do you know that name, Lillian?" I asked her. I made my voice very quiet and low. "Where did you hear about the Viremoor?"Lillian turned around slowly to face me. Her small fingers were still touching the beautiful blue stone on her chest."For a very long time, I thought this was just a fake story," she said. She looked up at me with big, honest eyes. "When I was younger, I loved to read. I found some very old books in the libraries near the border. The books told a story about a great war. Many years ago, several strong families from a big pack fought each other. They did terrible things just to get this necklace. They

Dorian’s POVI gasped, my chest heaving violently as I sat upright in the bed, my hand instantly flying to my collarbone. My heart was pounding like a war drum against my ribs, and cold sweat was dripping down my temples.I blinked rapidly, looking around the bright, sunlit master bedroom. The air wasn't ice-cold, the room was completely quiet, and there was no masked killer standing over me.It was a dream. An incredibly realistic, upsetting dream that I hadn't had in years. The memory of the silver blade sinking into my flesh felt so vivid it made my skin crawl, but it was nothing more than a trick of my exhausted mind. I let out a long, shaky breath and looked over toward the large bay window. The morning sun was already high in the sky, casting a warm, golden glow across the carpet. Lillian was already fully dressed, standing in front of the vanity mirror as she brushed out her hair.She caught my eye in the glass and spun around, a bright, playful smirk on her face. "Well, look

Lillian’s POVDorian and I both rushed out of his office at the sound of the alarm, my heart pounding with fear about what kind of emergency could be happening. We found Aiden in the main hallway, his expression tense and troubled in a way that made my anxiety spike even higher.“What’s going on?”

Lillian’s POVI woke up to my phone buzzing on the nightstand, the screen glowing in the pre-dawn darkness. My hand reached for it automatically, still half-asleep, and I squinted at the message that had just come through from an unknown number.“Two days left.”Just those three words, but they hit

Dorian’s POVI stared at Aiden in shock, my mind refusing to fully process what he’d just told me. Alpha Marcus? the same Alpha who’d pulled me aside at the council meetings, who’d given me advice about showing strength, who’d positioned himself as a concerned ally had orchestrated the attack on my

Dorian’s POVI spent hours in that dungeon, questioning the maid while she sat on the cold stone bench trembling with fear and guilt. The interrogation was methodical and relentless, I needed to know every detail of what had happened, who was behind it, and how deep this conspiracy went.“Tell me e
