Ava's POV

The 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 for Laura's sake. Fine."

My voice shattered.

"But June... why June?"

I lifted my head and glared at him through tears.

"The Smith family has wealth beyond measure. Was it truly so difficult to raise on

  • The Alpha's Scorned Bride   Chapter 187

    Ava's POVJasper’s hesitation lasted only a heartbeat before he moved. He crossed slowly, then stopped at the edge of my bed like he expected rejection.His head was down, his shoulders tight, like a young wolf trying very hard not to look like prey.I lifted my hand and tilted his face up gently.“Does your face sting? Any other bumps or bruises?”His eyes flickered away from mine, but I didn’t let him hide. I checked him carefully. There were only scrapes, swelling on his cheek, a bruise forming near his eye. Nothing life-threatening, but still enough to make my wolf growl low in irritation.I rolled his sleeves up next, checking instinctively for hidden injuries.When I was satisfied, I let go.“Next time,” I said firmly, “don’t ditch your bodyguards and go running off. You’re the alpha heir of the Moonshadow pack. There are vultures everywhere. You got lucky this time. Don’t count on it again.”His throat bobbed.“Yeah… got it.”I studied him for a moment longer, then pointed ligh

  • The Alpha's Scorned Bride   Chapter 186

    Ava's POVRichard and Nora had to be close. They had to be searching nearby. I just needed to hold on until we found them.Just a little farther. But my body was too weak.I coughed and spat a mouthful of blood onto the pavement.Jasper gasped. I slapped a hand over my mouth and kept running.Another cough tore free, and warm blood spilled through my fingers, splattering across Jasper’s cheek as I dragged him onward.He looked up at me then and saw my pale face, my tightly drawn brows, the blood, and the pain I could no longer hide.And for the first time since I had known him, the arrogance left his eyes.“Damn bitch!” Ryan’s voice roared through the air. He had reached us.Before I could steady myself, his hand tangled in my hair, yanking hard enough to make my vision blur. The world spun, and then my back slammed against a tree with sickening force.Then came the slap.My head snapped to the side, the crack echoing unnaturally loud to my heightened hearing. My wolf snarled, clawing

  • The Alpha's Scorned Bride   Chapter 185

    Ava's POVI closed my eyes briefly.My wolf groaned. Stupid pup.One thug laughed. “Ryan... isn’t Victor Smith the richest Alpha in the country?”“Yes!” Jasper shouted desperately. “My dad is Victor, the richest Alpha in the country! Let me go right now! You’ll regret it when he gets here!”Fear made his voice shrill and shaky, but arrogance still clung to every word. He had no instinct for survival, only entitlement.My wolf snarled. He is provoking them.A sharp crack split the night. The unmistakable sound of a slap.Then Jasper burst into sobs.“How dare you hit me! My dad will…”The shouting grew fainter, swallowed by the alley walls, until it turned into muffled sobbing.I clicked my tongue in irritation and pulled out my phone.“Richard,” I said the moment he answered, keeping my voice low, “park alley near the east side… bring Nora, now.”I ended the call before he could question me.My wolf prowled beneath my skin, claws itching. We should have shifted already.“Not yet. Let’

  • The Alpha's Scorned Bride   Chapter 184

    Ava's POVA visible shiver ran through Nora. I knew how cruel it sounded, and I also knew I did not care.Victor and Laura had taken a soft-hearted woman and ground her against stone until only sharp edges remained.Nora sighed heavily and motioned for Richard to sit down and eat. Neither of them argued further. They chose, wisely, to ignore the boy outside.So did I… at first.*****By ten o’clock, the outside remained quiet. At last, Nora could not hold herself back.“Ava... what if the kid gets abducted?”I leaned back calmly, wiping my hands with a napkin.“If he gets kidnapped,” I said evenly, “then the kidnappers can demand ransom from the Smith family.” I met Nora’s eyes. “What does that have to do with me?”I felt the old ache stir in my chest, but I kept my face unreadable. “Does that child even call me Mother?”No… to the world, he was the son of Laura and Victor, not mine.“Ava,” Nora said softly, her voice tight with worry, “I’m not concerned about him. I’m afraid they’ll

  • The Alpha's Scorned Bride   Chapter 183

    Ava's POVMy hand froze on the doorknob. For one moment, an ugly feeling twisted in my chest.I said nothing, but my wolf lowered her head.I turned away from the door and walked back to the sofa. Then I dropped onto it, closed my eyes, and leaned back.I thought about father and son, two impossible wolves, enough to split my skull open with stress."Ava..." Richard's voice softened as he looked me over. "What in the Moon's name is going on?"I didn't answer. He crouched beside the sofa."You look terrible. Why don't you sleep for a bit?""No." I forced myself upright. "I have materials to review."If I stayed still, I would think. If I thought, I would rage.So I opened my laptop and began scanning information on recent exhibitions, symposiums, and restoration showcases.My mood soured within minutes. Everywhere I looked, there was Laura's name.And worse, my own old works from five years ago kept appearing in feature lists, catalog references, and professional discussions.I stared

  • The Alpha's Scorned Bride   Chapter 182

    Ava’s POV.Victor's expression hardened into stone. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a black card. The same one I had left behind.He set it on the table between us."Keep this," he said. "Buy what you need. If it's not enough, let me know."For a moment, I only stared at the card.Money… that was all he ever offered. As if silver and paper could mend broken bonds or wash blood from guilty hands.My wolf bared her teeth.Throw it at him.But before I could move, Victor turned and walked toward the door.I snatched the black card off the table and hurled it at his back. It struck the wall beside the door and clattered to the floor."Victor, are you deaf?" I shouted, my voice ragged with fury. "We're done. I never want to see you again for the rest of my life!"He paused for half a second but didn't say anything. He didn't even bother to pick up the card.Then he disappeared down the stairwell like a shadow slipping away. The silence he left behind was worse than his presence.
