Mate and Best Friend’s Betrayal Chapter 13
The question hit her like a physical slap. Her mouth opened and closed wordlessly, like a fish gasping for air."He loves you, so what?" I continued conversationally, as if we were discussing the weather. "Is that why he had to bond with me? Desperately hide your and the child's existence for years?"The color gradually drained from her face, leaving her expensive makeup looking garish and clownish against her suddenly pale skin."You think you won some great prize?" I asked, tilting my head with genuine curiosity. "Tell me, Amber, what exactly did you win? A man who was ashamed of you? A relationship built on lies and secrecy?""I don't quite understand the point of you coming here to tell me all this. Don't you watch the news? Don't you know I've already bonded with someone else?"Her hands clenched into fists on the table, her knuckles going white with the effort of maintaining control."I've already given him to you. Why not take him properly?" I continued, studying her like a curi
Mate and Best Friend’s Betrayal Chapter 12
Alexander blocked my family's door without fail every single day.Rain or shine, he stood there like a broken statue. Some days he brought wilted flowers that he'd clearly picked from roadside ditches. Other days he just stood there in complete silence, his bloodshot eyes following every shadow that passed by the windows.He looked like a man possessed, driven by an obsession that bordered on madness.My father's guards reported his every pathetic move to me with a mixture of disgust and pity.How he refused all food, surviving only on coffee and whatever scraps passersby might offer. How he slept curled up in his expensive car like a vagrant. How he turned away anyone who tried to approach him, including his own pack members."The Alpha looks terrible, Miss," one of the Gammas told me during his daily report. "His clothes are wrinkled and stained. His hair unwashed for days. He keeps muttering your name like some kind of prayer."The guard paused, looking uncomfortable."Yesterday he

It took four Gammas to finally drag him outside.The sky suddenly began pouring rain, as if the heavens themselves were mourning the end of whatever we had once been.Through the window, I could see his figure standing stubbornly in the downpour, his expensive clothes quickly becoming soaked through.I suddenly remembered a time when we had argued over something trivial. I couldn't even remember what it had been about now. He had stood at my family's door, refusing to leave, just like this.Our youthful anger had long since faded, but neither of us could swallow our pride that day.So I had sent Amber out to persuade him to go home.They stayed outside for a long time. Much longer than necessary for a simple conversation.I remembered when Amber came back, there was a moment of distraction on her face. Her hair was slightly mussed, her lips looked fuller than usual.When I pressed her with questions about what they had talked about, her eyes suddenly reddened with tears."Raven, Alexan

Alexander's gaze went blank for a moment, his confident expression faltering like a mask slipping off. He blinked several times, as if trying to process what I had just said.Then he sighed helplessly, the sound heavy with condescension."Raven, this kind of pathetic lie won't fool me." His voice carried that familiar tone of someone speaking to a child having a tantrum. "Every minute and second you're wasting right now affects everyone's future. Don't be foolish."He stepped closer, his Alpha presence trying to overwhelm me."As long as you apologize, I'm still willing to mark you again and continue the cooperative relationship with your family."The arrogance in his voice made my blood boil. Even now, even after everything, he still thought he could control me with pretty words and empty promises.I slowly lifted my hair in front of everyone, my movements deliberate and calm. The room fell silent as I revealed the mark brand behind my ear, which carried the distinct, powerful scent o

I pressed closer to the window."The mining rights for 'Silver Moon Vein' have been suddenly frozen! All funding chains have been forcibly taken over by a third party!"The older man's face was red with rage and confusion."All our joint projects with the Moonwalkers have stopped! Our lawyers are saying the contracts have been voided by some legal technicality!"Downstairs instantly erupted into chaos.Alexander shot up from his chair, his face showing shock and disbelief, the lazy contentment gone."What? That's impossible!""The bank called ten minutes ago. Our accounts are frozen pending investigation for violation of territorial mining laws."Amber also panicked, her face going white."What does this mean? What about Connor's future?"Soon, the sound of vehicles starting filled the air as they rushed away to handle the crisis.The entire backyard was empty, as if the earlier warmth had been just a mocking illusion.From beginning to end, no one knew I had been there.I walked calml

"When did you...""My beta assistant is very reliable," he said with obvious pride. "Once you become my mate, you can have him work for you."He raised his eyebrows at me with a charming smile that transformed his entire face.I turned away, no longer looking at him, and seriously studied the agreement instead.This was almost a perfect protection agreement centered on interest exchange, maximally guaranteeing my independence and Ella's interests.Sebastian's "bride price" consisted of real strategic resources and security guarantees. Territory rights, financial independence, protection for Ella's inheritance, even escape clauses if the marriage failed.The man just continued lazily petting the dog, giving me time to read without pressure.After a long while, I finally found my voice."This is... incredibly generous." I looked up at him suspiciously. "What's the catch?""No catch. Just good business.""You're sure about signing this? Let me have my lawyer review it first.""Of course."
