“That rogue is already dead, Alpha. There's nothing we can do."

“Dead? Fuck!” Kallias's roar echoes off the walls. “Then what about the deal he promised me? What about our cooperation?!”

The chaos of papers scattering through the air, a vase shattering into pieces against the floor, greeted me as I stepped into Kallias’s study. His face was flushed crimson, nostrils flaring, his jaw so tight it looked like his teeth might break from the strain. Julian stood before him with head bowed low, too afraid to lift his gaze to the Alpha who now looked half-possessed by fury itself.

“Just let him rot anyway,” I said calmly, resting a hand over my stomach.

Both men’s eyes snapped toward me at once.

“Get the fuck out, Crystal."

But I didn’t leave. I stepped further into his wrecked study, ignoring the storm brewing in his eyes. Old me would have turned around, I would have just kept quiet like the obedient toy Kallias expected me to be. But I was done pretending to be some decorative, u

  • I Left My Husband For The Rogue King   Chapter 72

    WINTERI can’t even remember the last time I was in the Winterwood Pack. It must have been ages ago. Ever since I moved out with Kallias, our visits grew rarer and rarer. He always claimed to be too busy, but deep down, I knew the truth; he simply didn’t want to go back there. Kallias and my parents never got along from the very beginning. Even when my father passed away, we stayed only a single day and night before leaving again. Thinking about it now fills me with a deep, stinging regret. How foolish I had been.I used to think returning here alone someday after leaving Valtor’s place, whether because he’d finally had enough of me or because I’d walked away myself.Never once did I think I’d be coming back with him. That I would bring him here, to the Pack where I was born, to the home I once called mine.“We’ve arrived,” Valtor said as he stood, offering his hand to help me down.I accepted it and rose. The moment I stepped out of the carriage, a cool breeze brushed against my cheek

  • I Left My Husband For The Rogue King   Chapter 71

    WINTERI can't stop thinking about what Loran told me yesterday. He said what Valtor did to Alaric was only the beginning, that he would go much further if he had to, that he’d do whatever it took to protect me even from his own people. I didn’t want to find out just how far he would go. I didn’t want his followers to turn against him, didn’t want them to hate him because of me.In the evening, I took a long bath, but it did nothing to quiet the chaos in my thoughts. I tried to get some information from the maids about what had happened to Freya, but none of them spoke. I also hadn’t seen Freya since yesterday morning. That woman just vanished without a trace.Maybe I should ask Valtor directly, I thought. He was supposed to be in his study right now, meeting with his council.But when I stepped out of the bathroom, I froze. Valtor was already there, seated at the edge of the bed, his gaze fixed on me.Then in that deep, commanding voice, he said,“Come here, kitten.”My feet moved on

  • I Left My Husband For The Rogue King   Chapter 69

    WINTER“Freya, I think that’s too much,” I said sharply.It’s not that I took what happened yesterday lightly. The moment I heard Alaric was dead, it felt like the air had been punched out of my lungs. And I wasn’t defending Valtor’s decision to burn that place down with Kallias and Crystal still trapped inside.But when the word war slipped into the conversation, a war between the Rogue Kingdom and the Werewolf Packs, the hair on the back of my neck stood on end. Our people had been enemies for as long as history remembered, always striking, raiding, and retaliating. But a true war… that hadn’t happened in ages. And I knew both sides wouldn't want to relive that horror again.“You disgusting hypocrite,” Freya rose to her feet, eyes shining with fury. “You’ve already thrown the entire kingdom into chaos and now you’re acting like some frightened lamb? What did you think would happen after this? A celebration?"“I’ll try to talk to them-"“Who? The Alphas?” Freya asked, “Who do you thi

  • I Left My Husband For The Rogue King   Chapter 68

    WINTER“Is that Kallias? Did that bastard not only approach you, but dare lay his hands on you?”I still couldn’t bring myself to answer.Valtor gripped my hand, bringing it to his face, inhaling deeply as if he needed to reclaim what was his. The way he pressed my skin to his nose like he owned me, made my breath hitch. My scent clung to him, yet something that didn’t belong lingered beneath it. Kallias's scent tainted me after he forced himself too close, his hand gripping me before I could shove him away. I’d fought and screamed, but he’d already pulled me into his arms by the time the guards arrived and tore him off me."Please erase it from me," I whispered. "I don’t want any part of that man left on me. Clean me, replace what Kallias left with yours."A flicker of satisfaction flashed in Valtor’s eyes.He cupped my jaw and before long, his lips found mine again. I clung to him, my arms wrapping around his neck as I pulled him closer. His scent enveloped me, drowning out every tr

    WINTER“Fire…” I breathed, panic clawing up my throat as orange flames bloomed from a single point, licking outward in greedy waves. Thick smoke curled into the night air, “The mansion is on fire. Valtor is still inside!” “The King has ordered us to keep you in the carriage, lady." one of the guards said firmly, standing rigid outside the door.“Are you crazy? He is still in there!” I snapped, my voice trembling with fury and fear. “I have to get to him.”After that unpleasant encounter with Kallias earlier, I begged to be taken somewhere he couldn’t reach, and the guards suggested I wait in the carriage instead. Foolishly, I hadn’t argued; I’d even felt a small sense of relief. The corset cinching my ribs now felt unbearable, and the jeweled crown pressing against my scalp was suddenly too heavy to wear. I wanted to tear them both off. The air inside the carriage was thick and stifling, yet I forced myself to breathe, desperate for a wisp of cool air.Where had this sudden fire co
