Chapter 84

Marcus's office looked the same as it always did.

Books in careful order. The radiator ticking in the corner. The smell of old paper and cold tea. Everything exactly as it had been every Monday morning I'd sat across from him and taken another piece of the picture he was building toward giving me completely.

Today was the last piece.

He knew it. I knew it. The folder on his desk was thicker than usual and he had his hands folded on top of it like he was holding it down.

  • Reborn To Seduce My Bully's Alpha Father    What's left of Caden

    Chapter 171The programme met on Tuesday and Thursday mornings.A community rebuilding initiative in the southern district, one of the territories that had been hit hardest by the Council's old resource allocation policies, the ones that Kane's coalition was now working to reverse. Old buildings being renovated. Infrastructure being repaired. Work that required bodies and patience and the willingness to show up at seven in the morning and do something unglamorous until it was done.Caden had found it through a contact at the construction firm.He'd shown up the first Tuesday not knowing what to expect and had been handed a set of overalls and a task list and been pointed toward a building that needed its entire ground floor replastered.He hadn't replastered anything in his life.The man who showed him how was sixty-three years old, missing two fingers on his left hand from an industrial accident, and had absolutely no interest in who Caden's father was.That had been, Caden would thi

  • Reborn To Seduce My Bully's Alpha Father    One year

    Chapter 170The light came through the upper west window at a different angle in autumn.I'd learned the estate's light across all its seasons now, the sharp winter mornings when it came low and cold and made the frost on the grounds look like something deliberate, the long summer evenings when it stretched across the library floor in warm flat lines, the spring quality that made everything look provisional and new.Autumn light was different from all of them.Fuller somehow. More certain. Like it had somewhere to be and understood the value of arriving properly.I stood at the window with my coffee and watched the grounds come into the morning.Nearly a year.I had to hold that carefully to make it feel real. Not eleven months of continuous experience, that wasn't how this life had worked. Eleven months of two simultaneous timelines, the one I was living and the one I'd already lived and died in, running alongside each other constantly, informing everything.But still. Nearly a year

  • Reborn To Seduce My Bully's Alpha Father    Mathias and his son

    Chapter 169The flat was small.That was the first thing Matthias noticed when Caden opened the door. Not a criticism, just the particular adjustment of a man who had lived in a property with forty rooms for most of his adult life encountering a space that held everything necessary and nothing additional.A kitchen that was also a sitting room. One bedroom through a half-open door. A window overlooking a street that was neither ugly nor interesting. The kind of flat that people lived in when they were starting something from nothing and hadn't decided yet what that something was going to look like.Caden was in jeans and a plain shirt. No expensive casual. Just clothes."You didn't call ahead," Caden said."No," Matthias said. "I thought if I called ahead you'd prepare."A pause."Come in," Caden said.There were two chairs and a small table and a coffee maker that looked like it had been used recently. Caden made two cups without asking, which was something, the small domestic compet

  • Reborn To Seduce My Bully's Alpha Father    The Lennoxes

    Chapter 168David Lennox had never considered himself a remarkable man.He knew this about himself without any bitterness. He was good at his work, maintenance, machinery, the particular satisfaction of keeping things functioning that other people depended on without knowing it. He was good at being a husband. He was good at being a father, or he hoped he was, which was the closest most fathers ever got to knowing.He had never wanted to be powerful or important or remembered by anyone outside the small circle of people he loved.That had always seemed like enough.He was thirty-one when they brought Aria home.He remembered the day with the specific sharpness that certain days held permanently, not the dramatic ones necessarily, just the ones that rearranged everything that came after. A Tuesday in March. Cold still, the kind of late winter cold that hadn't decided to become spring yet. A man he'd known through the estate's lower staff network had come to them with a child and a stor

  • Reborn To Seduce My Bully's Alpha Father    Her own voice

    Chapter 167The secondary property was quiet on Sunday morning.My father's car was in the drive. The kitchen window was lit from inside, the warm yellow light that meant my mother was already up and had been for a while, the particular early rising of someone who found mornings easier than evenings for reasons she'd never fully explained.I sat in my car for a moment before going in.Not hesitating. Just pausing. Giving the moment the space it deserved before I walked into it.The Council acknowledgement was three days ago. The legal record existed now. My name, both of them, the one the Lennoxes had given me and the one my mother had carried, was in the Council's official archive. Aria Vael-Lennox. Founding bloodline heir. Acknowledged.Three days of that being true.And my parents didn't know yet.Not because I'd been keeping it from them deliberately. Because finding the right shape for it had taken time, and because some truths needed to be given in person, in the right room, wit

  • Reborn To Seduce My Bully's Alpha Father    What Aria Says

    Chapter 166The chamber was the same one.Same high ceilings. Same cold lighting. Same raised panel platform that required everyone below it to look up. I had stood in this room before, as someone defending herself, managing the question of whether her relationship with an Alpha was appropriate, giving testimony designed to survive scrutiny.This was different.I wasn't here to survive anything.I was here to say something true in a room that had spent forty years being built on the opposite.Matthias was in the gallery. Kane beside him. Dorian, quietly, at the far end of the row, his first time in a Council chamber in twenty years, sitting with his hands folded and his face doing what it always did, giving nothing away except to people who knew where to look.I knew where to look.He was afraid. Not for himself. For me. The particular fear of a parent watching a child do something that could go either way and understanding there was nothing left they could do to help.I held his gaze

  • Reborn To Seduce My Bully's Alpha Father    Stay Close

    CHAPTER 32The next morning, I woke up with Matthias's threat still sitting in my chest.If he touches your family, I bury him.Normal people probably shouldn't find that comforting.Unfortunately, I did.Maybe that said something deeply concerning about me.Or maybe it just said something about wh

  • Reborn To Seduce My Bully's Alpha Father    You're Mine

    Chapter 30The next morning, I made it through exactly two classes before Caden found me.I should have expected it.Things had been too quiet.Too easy.Which meant he was planning something.I was cutting through the side path behind the humanities building when I felt it first, that sick pull lo

  • Reborn To Seduce My Bully's Alpha Father    On His Desk

    CHAPTER 28I should have gone straight to my room.Instead, I found myself outside Matthias's study at nearly eleven at night with a folded maintenance schedule in my hand and a very weak excuse for being there.I knocked once."Come in."His voice slid through the door and straight under my skin.

  • Reborn To Seduce My Bully's Alpha Father    I don't want you to stop

    CHAPTER 28Matthias ended the call and stood very still for a second.Too still.The kind of stillness that wasn't calm at all.It was a control stretched tight over something much darker."Caden's not missing," I said quietly. "He's avoiding you."Matthias's jaw flexed."Same result."He slipped h
