EMBER’S POV

The memory rises sharp and ugly.

How easily he dragged me across the snow. How hell-bent he was on keeping those hands wrapped around my throat until he choked the last breath out of me.

He didn’t hesitate. Didn’t show even a flicker of the remorse he’d performed so convincingly for Harrison’s audience.

The moment he had the chance, he tried to end me.

Any pity I might have felt dies a quiet death in my chest, replaced by something colder. Something hungrier. Something that tastes l

  • TRADING MY CHEATING HUSBAND FOR THE LYCAN KING   CHAPTER 374: ONE LAST MISTAKE

    KNOX’S POVAnd I understand exactly what she’s doing—burying the ugliness of Hale under something warmer, pulling us back out of the cold—so I follow her lead, and I let the corner of my mouth curl, and I dip my head, all mock contrition.“You’re quite right, Lady Aster. A grave error on my part.” I hold her gaze. “How do you plan to punish me for it?”The flush is instant, and furious, and she fights it valiantly.“That is—that is no way to—”“Anything,” I go on, lower, “like the handcuffs?”Her eyes go wide, and the color floods all the way up her throat, and she makes a small strangled sound, and Queenie, behind her, makes an entirely different sound, delighted and scandalized. “That,” Ember hisses, scrabbling for the character and losing, “is no way to talk to your boss—”“No?” I take a slow step in, closing the gap, insufferable, thoroughly enjoying myself for the first time all day. “Then how would you have me talk to you, ma’am? Because I’m your man for the night. I’ll speak t

  • TRADING MY CHEATING HUSBAND FOR THE LYCAN KING   CHAPTER 373: GET A ROOM

    KNOX’S POVThe imperious mask flickers. Under it, my real Ember flushes, just slightly, pleased, and her mouth softens for half a second before she wrestles the character back on.“Mm.” She reaches out and adjusts my collar with one manicured finger, a small proprietary touch, a woman fixing her possession. “Jealous already. And we haven’t even left.” Her eyes gleam. “You’re going to be insufferable tonight, aren’t you.”“Deeply.” I catch the hand at my collar, turn it, press my mouth to the inside of her wrist, right over the pulse, and feel it jump. “You look like sin in that dress, Ember. I’m going to spend the whole drive thinking about getting you out of it.”“That is not—” and there she cracks, the flush spreading, her voice dropping out of the character entirely into a scandalized whisper, “—Knox, there are people—”“GET A ROOM.”Queenie basically shrieks, and Ember jumps back from me, and Queenie is coming down the stairs behind her with her arms thrown wide in theatrical desp

  • TRADING MY CHEATING HUSBAND FOR THE LYCAN KING   CHAPTER 372: THE MOST BEAUTIFUL

    KNOX’S POVNathaniel is staring at me.“The gala,” I say. “That’s your chance. Not to win her. Not to fix it. To stand up in front of the woman who never once gave up on you and let her see that you know exactly what she was worth—before you’re gone. Give her one thing that’s true. One thing with no engineering under it. And then let her forgive you, or let her not—but let her choose it, with the whole truth laid out in front of her.” I glance over. “Can you do that? One real thing. In front of everyone.”“…I don’t know,” Nathaniel says, and it’s quiet, and it’s the most honest thing he’s said in the car. “I’ve never done a real thing in front of everyone in my life. I don’t know if I know how.”“Then it’ll mean more when you do it,” I say. “Because she’ll know exactly what it cost you to try.”He’s silent the rest of the way into the city, staring out the window at the grey buildings coming up, and I let him be, because I’ve planted it—and Nathaniel, whatever else he is, has never on

  • TRADING MY CHEATING HUSBAND FOR THE LYCAN KING   CHAPTER 371: HIS ACT OF MERCY

    KNOX’S POV“Thank you.” He’s staring straight ahead, and his voice is steady, and there’s something in it I’ve never heard from him before—something almost peaceful. “For the mercy of it.”“Mercy.” The word comes out flat and disbelieving. “I’m putting you in a cell for the rest of your natural life, Nathaniel. That is not mercy.”“It is, though.” He turns to face me. “Knox. If I had done what I did to any other man alive—drugged him, engineered the deaths of sixty-three of his people, his mate included, looked him in the eye and lied to him for a decade—I would already be dead. You’d have killed me with your bare hands, slowly, and there is not a soul on this continent who would have called it anything but justice. That was the earned outcome. That was what I had coming.” His jaw tightens. “Instead you’re giving me a trial. A lawful one. A cell instead of a grave. You’re letting me answer for what I did like a man instead of dying like a dog in a yard—and you’re doing it while every

  • TRADING MY CHEATING HUSBAND FOR THE LYCAN KING   CHAPTER 370: HER GRANDMOTHER

    KNOX’S POVNathaniel’s already got the tablet out when I slide in, thumbs moving, that constant restless motion of a man whose mind outruns his body.“There’sa Hale thing,” I say, once we’re through the gates. “I need your read on it, and I need you to tell me it’s nothing.”He doesn’t look up. “Can’t promise that until I hear it. Go.”“Ember says that when they sparred, Hale did something that stopped her wolf. Reached inside her and shut Sapphire off, mid-channel. Switched her off like a tap.” I watch the road unspool. “And there was blood from Hale’s eyes afterward. And Ember says she looked older after. Aged, in the space of the fight.” I make myself say the rest. “So tell me my cousin has a party trick, Nathaniel. Tell me it’s nothing.”Nathaniel doesn’t answer right away, and when I glance over, the tablet is face-down on his knee and his expression has gone genuinely still.“I can’t tell you that,” he says slowly.“Nathaniel—”“Because I’ve read about it.” He turns to look at m

  • TRADING MY CHEATING HUSBAND FOR THE LYCAN KING   CHAPTER 369: DID SHE ASK YOU TO DO THIS?

    KNOX’S POV“She’s the lady of this house now. It falls to her. That’s simply how it is.” I keep my voice even. “But you’ll attend. As the guest of honour. The whole gala will rise and toast you, and it will be a farewell fit for a Volkov. A proper one. Grand. Everything you’re owed for the years you gave this place.” And I mean it, and I need her to hear that I mean it. “That’s my gift to you, Hale. We say our goodbyes at the feast, in front of everyone, with honour and with witnesses. And then you go to your new life with your head held high. But until then—” and here my voice hardens. “—you stay away from Ember.”Her chin comes up.“Away from her.”“I don’t understand everything that’s happened between the two of you,” I say. “I don’t understand why you took her to Celeste’s room. I don’t understand the things she’s told me or the way the two of you look at each other like there’s a war already declared. I don’t have the energy for this, and I’ve made my peace with the fact that I m

    KNOX’S POVHe blinks, the picture of innocence. “I’m not sure I understand. I explained the purpose quite clearly at the beginning of the evening. Conflict resolution. Closure. An opportunity for all parties to—”“Bullshit.”The word is deadpan, and I see Logan’s head snap up, see Gale’s sobbing st
