KAEL’S POV

The penthouse was dark.

I stood in front of the window watching the city lights blinking below me. Everything looked small from up here. Everything except her.

Ivy.

I poured myself a drink, but I did not drink it, I just held the cold glass in my hand.

I thought about the night, every word she said and every look on her face. The way her gray eyes met mine. The way she did not blink. The way her voice stayed steady even when her hands were shaking.

She was afraid, but she did not run

  • REJECTED FOR HIS FIRST LOVE    CHAPTER 109

    KAEL’S POVI stood in the driveway, with my fists still clenched and my blood still boiling, as I watched Damon’s smug face fade into the distance, and I had to physically restrain myself from going after him because every fiber of my being wanted to wipe that smirk off his face, to make him pay for every tear he had ever caused Ivy, for every moment of pain he had inflicted on her.But I held back. I held back because Ivy needed me to be strong, not reckless. I held back because she had asked me to stop the confrontation, and I would not disrespect her wishes. I held back because I knew that if I let my anger take over, I would only be playing into Damon’s hands.I watched her stand her ground against Damon, her voice steady and her eyes cold, and I felt a surge of pride and admiration wash over me because this was the woman I loved, fierce and unbroken, refusing to let him fall. She was not the same woman who had left Snowrich Pack broken and defeated. She was stronger now. She was

  • REJECTED FOR HIS FIRST LOVE    CHAPTER 108

    IVY’S POVI felt the world spinning around me as Damon’s words echoed in my head, and the ground beneath my feet seemed to told and shift like I was standing on the deck of a sinking ship because the reality of what he had just revealed was too heavy to bear, too devastating to process and to cruel to be true. I was still married to him. After everything he had done to me, after all the pain and humiliation he had put me through, I was still legally bound to him.The marriage certificate in his hands was real. I recognized the seal, the familiar stamp of the court that I had seen all those years ago when I had foolishly signed my life away to him, believing that I was building a future with a man who would love and cherish me. My legs felt weak, and I could feel the blood draining from my face as the weight of his words pressed down on me like a physical force, crushing the air from my lungs.Kael stepped closer to me, his voice filled with concern and urgency as he reached out his ha

  • REJECTED FOR HIS FIRST LOVE    CHAPTER 107

    KAEL’S POVI watched Ivy break down in front of me, with her shoulders trembling and her eyes filled with tears that she was fighting to hold back, and my heart ached for her in a way that I had never felt before, like a deep, wrenching pain that made me want to take all of her suffering and carry it myself. She had been through so much, had endured so much pain, and yet she was still standing, still fighting, still refusing to give up, and that strength only made me love her more.I stepped closer and took her hand, my voice lowered and steady, as I tried to put all the reassurance I could into my words. “I will not let Damon destroy you, Ivy. I will find a way to fix this. Whatever it takes, I will fix it. I promise you that.”But she pulled her hand away from me, and I could see the walls she was building around herself x the walls she always built when she was hurting. Then she spoke in a broken voice, “I can. It rely on you, Kael. I have been hurt too many times. I trusted people

  • REJECTED FOR HIS FIRST LOVE    CHAPTER 106

    IVY’S POVI watched Damon walk away, with his shoulder straight smd steps unhurried, as if he had just won a victory, as if he had just planted a seed tbat would grow into something destructive, and instead of feeling relief at his departure, I felt a deep, hollow dread settling in my chest because his words were still echoing in my head, and the more I though about them, the more I realized that he might be telling the truth.I had not broken any bond when I had left Snowrich Pack, andni had not signed any document of divorce, I had simply walked away and assumed it was over, but assumptions do not make something legal, and the sickening feeling in my stomach told me that Damon may still have a legal claim on me, that I was still tied to him, in ways I had never considered. I had been so focused on escaping him, on building a new life, that I had never stopped to think about the legal ties that still bound me to him. I had been so naive, so foolish, to believe that walking away was e

  • REJECTED FOR HIS FIRST LOVE    CHAPTER 105

    KAEL’S POVI walked into the event, and the crowd parted as people recognized me, their whispers trailing behind me like a wave of curiosity and respect, but I did not care about any of them because my eyes were already scanning the room, searching for her.And then I saw her.Ivy.She was standing across the room with Damon and my blood ran cold at the sight of him standing so close to her, his body language was too familiar with a practiced smile on his face, and I felt a surge of anger rise to my chest that I had to fight to suppress.I watched them for a moment, studying the way Ivy held herself, the coldness in her expression, the way she had kept her distance from him, and I knew that she was not there by choice, she was not there to rekindle anything, she was there because she had to be.Pedro noticed my reaction immediately, and he leaned in close to whisper in my ear. “Stay calm, Kael. Do not make a scene. This is not the place for it.”I forced myself to look away, to greet

  • REJECTED FOR HIS FIRST LOVE    CHAPTER 104

    IVY’S POV I walked onto the stage, and the room fell silent as all eyes turned on me, and I could feel the weight of their gazes pressing down on me luke a physical force. But I refused to let it show because I had come too far to be intimidated by a room full of strangers.I took a deep breath and began to speak in a steady and clear voice.“Good evening everyone, my name is Ivy Morgan, and I am the CEO of Morgan Industries. I want to thank the organizers for giving me this opportunity to speak tonight, and I want to thank all of you for being here. It is an honor to stand in front of so many brilliant minds and passionate individuals who believe in the power of innovation and the future of our industry.”I paused for a moment and looked out at the crowd, allowing my words to sink in.Morgan industries was built on a simple idea: that we can create something better, something smarter, something that will shape the future. We started small with nothing but a vision and a relentless d
