EMBER’S POV

The movement is so fast it barely registers as motion — in a blink, his hand crossed the space between them in a devastating arc that splits Nathaniel’s skin from temple to jaw in three deep parallel gouges, ripping out an eye with no remorse.

Blood sprays across the wall in a bright fan, spattering the wood panelling in a pattern that will never fully come out, and before Nathaniel can even stagger Knox follows through with a downward slash that catches his shirt at the collar and

Wow Remi Winters this chapter is so-o-o intense. You finally reveal so much truth. You show Knox's emotional pain that he's carried as well as buried so deeply that prevents him from being able to say " I love you" to Ember

  • TRADING MY CHEATING HUSBAND FOR THE LYCAN KING   CHAPTER 273: HIS HOME

    EMBER'S POV The car climbed for what felt like a year, and I’d given up asking how much longer somewhere around the second switchback, when the trees finally let go of the road and I saw it.I don’t know what I expected.Something old, probably. Something with gargoyles and a moat and a name that sounded like a curse, because that fit the man whose hand had been wrapped around mine since the plane like he thought I might evaporate if he loosened his grip.What I got instead was black glass and steel folded out over a drop I couldn’t see the bottom of, the whole thing lit up gold from the inside and hanging in the dark.“Okay,” I said. “That’s not a house.”“It’s home.” His thumb kept moving over my knuckles. Slow, steady, around and around, the way you’d check a bruise hadn’t gotten worse.He hadn’t stopped touching me since we got on the plane. He hadn’t said much either, not since the runway, not since I mentioned Rafael and the warm version of him packed up and left and this other

  • TRADING MY CHEATING HUSBAND FOR THE LYCAN KING   CHAPTER 272: MY WIFE, MY MATE, MY LOVE

    EMBER’S POVThe colour drains from Knox’s face so fast it’s like watching someone pull a plug.“She thinks he’s alive,” I continue, and the words feel dangerous leaving my mouth, like setting something loose that I can’t put back. “She heard whispers among the nurses a few nights ago. An emergency call went out demanding every qualified surgeon in the hospital. All ten senior doctors pulled from their shifts in the middle of the night, driven out in private cars. The patient was in critical condition. She thinks it was Rafael.”Knox doesn’t respond.His eyes go blank, sinking to a place I can’t follow. The Lycan King is taking over.I can practically see the ruthless calculations forming behind his stare—a cold precision that terrifies and reassures me all at once.His jaw locks.“You think it’s true, don’t you?” I ask.“FUCK.” The word comes out sharp and vicious and he drops my hand to drag his palm across his jaw. “I KNEW I should have ripped that bastard’s head clean off his shoul

  • TRADING MY CHEATING HUSBAND FOR THE LYCAN KING   CHAPTER 271: ABOUT RAFAEL

    EMBER’S POVHe swallows hard.“I made her carry my secrets and clean my messes and defend my choices to people who questioned them, and not ONCE did she ever refuse, because she trusted me that completely, and I have damned that trust in ways I can’t undo.”The janitor has stopped mopping again. I don’t blame him.“There has to be something,” Nathaniel says, and the begging in his voice is so naked it makes my chest hurt despite everything this man has done. “One last chance at doing right by her. Before the council decides my fate, before Knox decides my fate, before everything I’ve built comes down around me — I need to know I did ONE thing that was for her and only her. Not for Knox. Not for the mission. Not for anything.” He looks at me and the look is the look of a drowning man. “What do I say to her, Ember? What words exist that could possibly be enough? Help me. Please. Anything.”My heart breaks, rips in ways I can’t explain. Is it too late for them? Was it too late for Knox a

  • TRADING MY CHEATING HUSBAND FOR THE LYCAN KING   CHAPTER 270: WHAT ARE HER FAVOURITE FLOWERS?

    EMBER’S POVThe janitor at the far end of the cafeteria has stopped mopping and is staring.“Nathaniel, get up.”“Not until you tell me if there’s a chance. If there’s anything I can do. If Queenie has said anything to you about what she needs from me that I can still give.”I stare down at him on the dirty linoleum.Queenie’s words from the car hit me suddenly.Looking at him now, her jealousy toward Knox makes terrifying sense. It was never romantic. It is so much worse.She has to sit back and watch her husband pour every ounce of his energy, his sharpest focus, and his absolute devotion into another person day after day.He gives Knox everything. Queenie just gets the scraps.“Get up,” I say. Gently but firmly. “Off the floor, Nathaniel. This isn’t a briefing room and I’m not Knox and you don’t need to be on your knees for this conversation.”He gets up and sits back in the chair. His eyes are wet and he doesn’t wipe them and the vulnerability of that — Nathaniel allowing someone

  • TRADING MY CHEATING HUSBAND FOR THE LYCAN KING   CHAPTER 269: I’M LOSING HER

    EMBER’S POVMy spine stiffens. I know what this is.He’s going to plead his case. He’s going to explain why Knox should keep him, why the twenty years of service outweigh the sixty-three bodies, why firing him would be politically catastrophic.He’s going to be logical and measured and strategically compelling because that’s what Nathaniel does — he engineers outcomes.And he’s come to me because he thinks I have influence over Knox’s decision, which I do, and he thinks he can convince me to use it in his favour, which he cannot.“If this is about Knox—”“It’s about Queenie.”I stop mid-dismissal.Whatever I was about to say evaporates from my mouth and what replaces it is silence, because of all the things I expected Nathaniel to say in this corridor, that was not one of them.“What?”“I need to talk to you about Queenie.” His voice is different from any version I’ve heard before.This voice has been stripped and sanded until there’s nothing left but the grain underneath, and the gra

  • TRADING MY CHEATING HUSBAND FOR THE LYCAN KING   CHAPTER 268: THE THREE OF US

    EMBER’S POVWhen her eyes meet mine, the dying socialite and the sharp-tongued ex are nowhere to be found. The pretense is over.Underneath it all is just a terrified girl who has worn armor for so long she forgot it wasn’t skin.“So why are you doing this? Why are you selling me hope right now like it’s something I can afford? Why are you trying to make this HARDER? Do you know how hard I’ve fought to get to this place? To this acceptance? I don’t want to go back to the hoping, Ember. The hoping is what kept me awake at three in the morning bargaining with a Goddess who stopped listening months ago.” Her voice drops to a whisper that is barely audible above the heart monitor. “I’m scared. I am so scared, and I have been holding this together with herbs and sarcasm and sheer fucking vanity, and under all of it I am TERRIFIED of what comes next. Of the dark. Of whatever judgement the Goddess has waiting for a woman who left good men at altars and manipulated everyone she ever loved and

    EMBER’S POVThe mattress dips sometime after three in the morning.I’ve been lying here for hours, staring at the ceiling, my mind running circles around the photo of Queenie still burning a hole in my phone.Sleep feels impossible.

    EMBER’S POVI nod desperately.“Liar.” He pumps into me slowly, his thumb circling my clit with featherlight pressure that’s nowhere near enough. “You’re never quiet. It’s one of my favorite things about you.”“For goddess sake, Knox, please—”“Please what?” He’s smiling now, the bastard. Enjoying
