Reborn To Seduce My Bully's Alpha Father The Hearing
Chapter 94The Council chamber was built to make people feel small.That was the point of it. High ceilings. Stone walls. A raised panel platform that required everyone below it to look up. The lighting was cold and institutional and fell on the floor in front of the panel table in a way that left the people standing in it slightly exposed. Slightly lit from above like specimens.Whoever designed this room had understood power.Matthias stood in the lit space like he hadn't noticed any of it.I stood beside him and kept my hands folded in front of me and my face entirely neutral and looked at the five people behind the raised table.Five panel members. Three I didn't recognise. Two I did.Varen on the left. Silver-haired, precise, the particular stillness of a man who had been in rooms like this his entire career and felt entirely at home in them. He had a folder open in front of him that he wasn't looking at because he already knew everything in it.Solke beside him. Heavier. Older.
Reborn To Seduce My Bully's Alpha Father Before the Hearing
Chapter 93The estate was quiet by ten.The kind of quiet that settled in when everything that could be done had been done and what remained was just the waiting. Dante had gone to his quarters two hours ago after confirming the documentation was complete and the legal counsel Marcus had recommended was briefed and ready. The security team had their positions. The car was arranged for seven AM.Everything was in place.Which left Matthias and me alone in his sitting room with a fire that had burned down to embers and the hearing twelve hours away.He was in the chair nearest the window. Not reading. Not on his phone. Just sitting with a glass of whiskey he'd barely touched and his eyes on the middle distance the way he looked when he was thinking through something he'd already decided.I was on the sofa across from him.Neither of us had said anything for ten minutes.He broke the silence first."We could end it," he said.I looked at him."Before tomorrow," he said. "Walk away from t

Chapter 92The document arrived on a Thursday morning.Formal envelope. Council seal in dark wax. Delivered by hand through official channels to the estate's front entrance, which was itself a statement. The Council didn't send couriers to Matthias Ashford's door. They used digital channels and secure messaging systems like everyone else.Hand delivery meant they wanted the weight of it felt.Dante brought it to Matthias's office without opening it. Set it on the desk and stood back with the particular stillness of someone who already knew the shape of what was inside from the quality of the envelope alone.Matthias opened it.Read it once. Set it down.Then looked at Dante."Get Aria," he said.I read it standing at his desk while both of them watched.The language was formal and dense in the way Council documents always were. Constructed to sound procedural and neutral while being neither. But the substance was clear enough underneath the careful phrasing.Matthias Ashford, Alpha of

Chapter 91I didn't go to Matthias immediately.I went to my room first. Sat on the edge of the bed with my hands in my lap and gave myself ten minutes to think before I took it to anyone else.Two men.That was the thing I needed to sit with. The specific distinction that Victoria had handed me without fully understanding what she was handing over.Cassius Blackthorn had been searching for me for twenty years. He had built legal frameworks and financial infrastructure and an operation that had reached inside this estate and used real people as tools and caused real damage. He wanted the founding bloodline heir. He wanted what he considered his by right of old law and patient work. He had a claim and he intended to collect on it.Dorian Voss had been searching for me too. Differently. Quietly. Through a single private channel fifteen years ago, asking one question, is she safe. and then pulling back into silence when the answer was yes. Not pursuing. Not building infrastructure. Just

Chapter 90She came to me.That alone said everything.Victoria Ashford did not go to people. People came to her, or they didn't get an audience. So when she appeared in the library doorway at seven in the evening without a note or a staff member or any of the usual architecture of her approach, I understood that something had shifted in her calculation.I looked up from my file.She looked at the chair across from mine.She sat without asking. Which was also Victoria. Even coming to someone, she didn't ask permission to sit in a chair."I have made a decision," she said.No preamble. No acknowledgement of the east sitting room or what had passed between us two days ago. Just the current position, stated cleanly."I'm listening," I said."I have information about your birth family that I've been holding for fifteen years." She looked at me directly. "I'm going to give it to you. Not because you backed me into a corner. Not because I've run out of options." She held my gaze without fli

Chapter 89She sent for me herself.Not through Dante, not through the estate's internal messaging system. A staff member knocked on my door at half past nine and said Ms. Victoria was asking if I had a moment. The phrasing was careful, asking and not summoning.That alone told me something had shifted.I told Matthias where I was going. He looked at me for a moment, then nodded. Dante moved toward the door. I shook my head slightly. He stayed.Victoria was in the smaller east sitting room.Not her office, not the formal spaces she usually chose for conversations she wanted to control. The east sitting room was quieter. More private. The kind of room people used when they didn't want the conversation to feel official.She was standing at the window when I came in.That was the first thing I noticed.Not sitting behind a desk, not positioned with furniture between us. Just standing at the window with her arms at her sides, looking at the grounds, and she turned when she heard the door
