Seraphina's POV

Caldwell sent three messages for every one of mine.

It was a habit I'd noticed back when I was stuck in the Alaska healing center.

He never sent long paragraphs; he broke everything into short sentences. The notification pings hit my phone like rain against a window—persistent and rhythmic.

I couldn't help but picture him as some obsessive, stubborn old scholar, probably peering through thick glasses to make sure I took my meds on time.

The thought made me let out another soft la

  • Ex-Mate Wants Me Back   Chapter 228

    Third Person's POVWhen Seraphina still got no response, she impatiently reached out and gave him a shove.His skin was burning hot. She frowned even more."A fever?" she asked, clearly annoyed.Mortimer always managed to create trouble for her."Mortimer, you have a fever." She raised her voice to make sure he heard.His heavy eyelids slowly lifted. The fever had left his eyes rimmed red, and paired with his fragile, aggrieved expression, he looked genuinely pitiful."I'll only say a few things, then I'll leave." The irritation on Seraphina's face became even more obvious."About having the video of Dash taken down. I didn't do it to help Vivian or protect the Davis family. I watched the video, and it broke my heart. The only thing I could think about was how much worse it would be for you if you saw it. I was afraid you'd see it, so I had it removed."Mortimer's voice was rough from the fever and the wolf raging out of control inside him.He spoke rapidly, desperate to explain, terr

  • Ex-Mate Wants Me Back   Chapter 227

    Third Person's POVShe hadn't blocked him or deleted his contact.She just quietly shut him out of her life while he clung to the faintest hope that his amends could repair their mating bond.She kept everything perfectly civil, yet that emotionless distance cut him deeper than any anger ever could.Mortimer looked at Seraphina and let out a sudden laugh.Yet, with his face etched in sorrow and his eyes glistening with tears, he looked heartbreakingly broken.But Seraphina didn't feel a thing; the blizzard that had once turned her heart to stone left behind only a hollow, immovable chill.She simply looked at him with a blank expression and muttered, "Happy birthday."Her voice was flat, devoid of emotion, like an actor reading a script just to get through the scene."You promised you'd spend my birthday with me," Mortimer said, refusing to give up.Desperate to hold onto their dying bond, he let his own obsession trap and torment him. "You promised me. How could you forget?"His tear

  • Ex-Mate Wants Me Back   Chapter 226

    Third Person's POVAlthough the movement was subtle, Mortimer caught it. A flicker of pain crossed his eyes.Dash recognized him instantly. The dog propped its front paws on the edge of the stroller, its tongue hanging out as its tail wagged enthusiastically.Mortimer forced a faint smile and reached out to stroke its head.But Seraphina reacted almost on instinct, shoving his hand away."What are you trying to do?" she asked, her eyes instantly turning cold. The way she stiffened—as wary as a cat with its guard up—felt like a thousand knives piercing Mortimer's heart, leaving it bleeding endlessly.He slowly lifted his gaze to hers and let out a bitter laugh. "You think I'd hurt Dash?"Even though he already knew the answer, he still couldn't stop himself from asking.Seraphina said nothing, but the look on her face told him everything."Have I really lost all your trust?" Mortimer asked hoarsely. His lips trembled, and his eyes slowly reddened.Ever since Vivian told her Mortimer ha

    Third Person's POVMortimer got into the car, rubbing his increasingly painful temples as he stared at the message he'd sent to Seraphina a few hours ago, which still hadn't received a reply.She knew. She knew he had "helped" Lillian take down the videos of Dash being abused; she knew he had once again "chosen" Vivian over her in order to "protect" Vivian.So she could never leave Dash in his hands again. She couldn't trust him anymore.So when he suffered a gastric hemorrhage, she didn't even come to see him, not even ask a single question.Time and time again, he had acted like he knew better, only to make everything worse.She must have hated him more than anything.Mortimer felt a headache coming on, pain pulsing sharply through his temples.He called Seraphina again, and this time the call was hung up after a few rings.Unwilling to give up, he dialed again, and after two rings, it was hung up once more.He opened Seraphina's chat again. The screen was filled with messages he'd

    Third Person's POVHer eyes brimmed with tears, burning with desperate anticipation.But Mortimer's expression had already ominous.Wilmot stood with his hands in his pockets, watching the scene with a grim expression. The moment he heard their exchange, his face went rigid.He suddenly caught the key point in the conversation, turned to Mortimer in disbelief and said, "Wait—Mortimer. The woman who abused Dash Seraphina brought back... that's Vivian's mother? And the bastard who used his privilege behind the scenes to take all the videos off the internet and obstruct the police's investigation... that was you?!"Mortimer said nothing, his fists clenched at his sides so tightly that his knuckles cracked, and black fur threatened to burst from the back of his hand as he lost control of his emotions.His pale and twisted face was already an admission of everything."Damn it!"Wilmot wiped his face hard, then rubbed his forehead vigorously, struggling not to lose his mind at his alpha's u

    Third Person's POVAt this moment, Vivian still didn't know that Mortimer had already seen the photos on Humphrey's phone.She had originally been waiting for Mortimer to come to her in a fit of rage and question her directly.But she waited and waited until her patience finally ran out, and Mortimer still didn't come to her. Even Randall and his group didn't mention the photos at all.In the end, she couldn't hold back any longer. Acting on instinct, she went to the Imperial Prestige Club, and unexpectedly, she actually ran into him."Mortimer, look, I really didn't lie to you! That woman betrayed you! I saw Seraphina with another Alpha in an upscale restaurant with my own eyes..."As she spoke anxiously, she fumbled to open her phone's photo album, shoving those carefully angled, seemingly intimate photos right in front of Mortimer.Before Vivian could finish her sentence, something slashed through the air by her ear.Mortimer slapped her phone out of her hand with astonishing force

    Mortimer's POVThe Swedish aurora writhed across the sky like a fever dream. Those eerie green lights felt like cold snakes, strangling the breath right out of me.
