Ava's POV

Nora’s words landed hard.

She smirked, clearly not done, her tone turning sharper, more biting. “Guess you’re not deaf after all. Ava won the Drakoria piano competition when she was ten. If Laura hadn’t bullied her, if she hadn’t made her grandma…”

“Get these troublemakers out of here!” Kingsley’s voice cracked through the room like a whip before Nora could finish.

The moment he signaled, the guards moved in, fast and coordinated, their presence closing around us like a tightening cag

  • The Alpha's Scorned Bride   Chapter 308

    Ava's POVMagnus' face twisted with fury. His aura slammed into the room, thick and oppressive, but I didn't move.I straightened, shedding every trace of the daughter he used to silence with a look.My wolf rose beneath my skin, steady and cold."Stop staring at me like that," I said evenly. "I didn't make you cheat. I didn't create your little love child either. You forced this path, Magnus."His nostrils flared."Twenty-six years," I continued, my voice sharpening with every word. "Twenty-six years, Dad. I gave you chances I shouldn't have. A single moment of acknowledgment. A shred of guilt, anything. Maybe then I wouldn't have needed those photos."The silence in the room thickened."You think I did all this to cause chaos?" I let out a low, humorless breath. "No. I was giving you an exit. A chance to do something good. But you chose this path instead."Magnus' eyes narrowed. "You really think I won't end you?" he g

    Ava's POV"Of course not." I rubbed my temples. "But we can't rush in blindly. If we do, we'll end up losing again."After everything that had happened, I finally understood. Normal tactics didn't work on people like them.Magnus and the others had completely lost themselves. Acting obedient hadn't worked, pretending to be unstable hadn't worked. Trying to appeal to family bonds hadn't worked. Nothing had. It was pathetic."Ava, get some rest." Reuben placed a reassuring hand on my shoulder. "This won't be solved in one night. Focus on recovering first.""He's right," Nora said gently as she helped me up. "Take care of yourself."Then she grabbed her bag. "Go shower and sleep. I've got another case to handle. I'll come back later and keep you company. Maybe the detective will uncover something useful."I nodded. After she left, I sat alone on the bed, silently counting on my fingers while my thoughts spiraled. The hours passed and nig

    Ava's POVNora wiped her face quickly and nodded."He's still unconscious," she said, taking my hand."But he is stable," Reuben added from behind us. "He'll wake up when he's ready."Reuben paused, then added more quietly, "He's strong, ladies. He'll come back."I walked to Richard's bedside slowly.He was barely recognizable. Bandages wrapped around him in layers, covering most of his body like he had been sealed away from the world.His jaw was unshaven, his skin pale, and his life force was so faint it felt like I was standing next to a body the Moon Goddess had forgotten to breathe back into.Richard had always carried bright wolf energy. He was always restless, loud, and annoyingly alive. Now he seemed like a shadow of himself.My chest tightened violently, and my wolf whimpered low inside me. I bit down hard on my lip until I tasted blood."I'm sorry," I whispered, my voice shaking. "I'm sorry, Richard."

    Anderson’s POVAva’s eyes scanned mine. I adjusted my grip carefully."Anywhere is better than this place," I said. My gaze lifted to Magnus and Laura, and my voice cooled."If your family thinks she's unworthy, then you can step aside." I paused, then added, my tone sharper, "You've done enough damage already."Ava tensed in my arms. "Anderson, put me down.""Not happening," I replied.I looked down at her briefly, then softened my tone just slightly. "I spoke to my parents last night." Her eyes widened faintly. "They agreed. I'm bringing you home."She looked genuinely stunned. Reuben let out a low breath behind me, almost amused. "Guess that's settled."Magnus's voice snapped through the room like a whip. "Put her down."I didn't move. I met Magnus's gaze, calm and unshaken. "Mr. Stone," I said evenly, "your family has already decided she is expendable."His jaw tightened. "That is not your concern.

    Ava's POVMy breath slowed. My heartbeat steadied. This was the moment. I lifted my gaze and smiled faintly through tears.Just as I was about to speak, Magnus snapped. "Enough of this chaos!" His voice cracked through the room, heavy with rage.He waved sharply. "Clear them out!"His bodyguards surged forward immediately, their wolf auras flaring as they forced the reporters back.But not all of them retreated. Some held their ground. One brave reporter pushed his recorder forward."Mr. Stone! You seem pretty chill about the deaths in the Stone Group's mall. Does that mean it's not the first time? Are you involved in this?"The question detonated the room. Magnus's aura exploded, his wolf surging violently under his skin.For a second, I thought he might actually shift right there on the hospital floor.His face turned red with uncontrolled fury. "GET OUT!" he growled.The remaining reporters were dragged out one

    Ava's POVI stumbled again and fell this time. I looked up through tear-blurred vision."Dad, why did you lock me in that place...?" My voice broke further.The crowd quietened immediately, and more eyes landed on me."I'm not crazy..." I gasped. "They drugged me... they injected me... I couldn't think straight... That place was a nightmare... Dad..." I reached out weakly. "Why won't you see me?"Click. Click. Click. Camera shutters snapped, recorders rolled, and the pack of reporters surged forward like hunting wolves."Miss! Are you Magnus Stone's daughter?" I flinched dramatically and slapped the nearest camera away."Don't twist this! This is internal Stone family business!" My voice sharpened for a split second, and I immediately softened it again."I just... I just want my dad..." I buried my face in my hands. "It's my fault... it must be my fault..."Then I let my shoulders tremble, let silence stretch, let them l

    Ava's POVThe strength drained from my body as soon as the words left me. I collapsed to my knees beside the couch, burying my face in my hands.Tears slid between my fingers.My shoulders shook so hard I could barely breathe."Victor..." I choked out. "You can hate me. You can throw me in prison f

    Ava's POVVictor’s gaze snapped toward her, sharp with disbelief. He hadn’t expected this. None of us had.Clara had always been the one constant. The one who insisted I stay. Five years ago, when that reckless night that got me knocked up tied our fates together, she hadn’t hesitated. She made him

    Ava's POVMy heart was racing, but not from fear of the scooter.“No, I…” I pulled away from him, shaking my head, my thoughts a tangled mess. I looked up at him, hope, fear, and desperation crashing into each other so violently I could barely sort through them.“Alpha Anderson…” My voice came out
