Ava's POV

Kingsley’s face darkened instantly. Then his eyes flicked briefly toward Anderson. That single glance told me everything. He was afraid, afraid that Anderson might actually hear me.

Before I could react, he suddenly grabbed my wrist and yanked me toward him harshly.

Pain exploded through my arm. I gasped.

His grip tightened so brutally it felt like my bones were grinding together.

“I’m warning you,” he hissed under his breath, his voice low and savage enough that only I could hear. “W

  • The Alpha's Scorned Bride   Chapter 350

    Ava's POVLaura laughed bitterly. "I've done nothing wrong."Of course she would say that. I sighed. "Then do I need to expose everything?""You can't prove anything!" She clung to Magnus' arm. "You accused Dad of cheating." Her voice trembled. "You said I'm not his daughter."I smiled slowly. "The DNA test already proved that."Then a familiar scent drifted into the hall. It was Kate. Every head turned toward her. Tears streamed down her face."Laura isn't Beatrice's daughter."The room froze."But she is Magnus'."A collective gasp followed. Even my wolf was momentarily stunned. Kate wrung her hands."Magnus... I'm sorry."Magnus looked like he might collapse."Your daughter, the one Beatrice had, died shortly after birth..."The room filled with whispers."I was afraid both of you would be devastated." She broke into tears. "So I switched the babies."Everyone was shocked by the revelation.Then a fam

  • The Alpha's Scorned Bride   Chapter 349

    Ava's POVA stunned silence swept through the memorial hall. Magnus ripped the reports from my hands, his fingers trembling as he flipped through page after page.The scent of panic poured off him. For the first time in my life, I saw genuine, intense fear in the man who had terrorized me for years.Beside him, Lucas leaned forward to examine the papers. His eyes scanned the results, and a moment later, his brows shot upward.Shock flashed across his usually emotionless face. The DNA reports were real, and he knew it.I took a slow breath. The room was descending into chaos, but my wolf remained strangely calm.Maybe because I'd waited my entire life for this moment. Maybe because the truth was finally free.The reporters Ben Styles sent were recording everything that was going on."I know this is difficult for everyone," I said. My voice echoed through the hall. "But Mom's death is connected to all of this."Dozens of eyes turned toward

  • The Alpha's Scorned Bride   Chapter 348

    Ava's POVI watched Magnus' face turn pale.Everyone knew how much Lucas had sacrificed for the Stone family. For years, he had held Stone Group together through sheer determination.He had carried the entire family on his shoulders, and now he was discovering that Magnus intended to replace him with some unborn pup from his mistress.Magnus visibly trembled. "Lucas, don't listen to Ava," he said hurriedly. "She's lying. She's the one who killed your mother...""Enough."Lucas's voice wasn't loud. It didn't need to be.Magnus's face turned ghostly white. "Lucas," he pleaded, "it's all fabricated. I'd never betray your mother."Lucas didn't even look at him. His gaze shifted to me. "Continue."I blinked. For a moment, I was genuinely surprised. Then I nodded.Before I could speak, Laura rushed forward. "Lucas!" Tears streamed down her face. "Are you really going to let her destroy Mom's funeral?" Laura cried.She clung to Lucas's

  • The Alpha's Scorned Bride   Chapter 347

    Ava's POVLaura froze. Then her eyes dropped to my emerald earrings. Immediately, her face twisted."Why are you wearing those? Did you steal them from me?"The sheer audacity nearly made me laugh. Those earrings belonged to me. She had stolen them first.Nora wrinkled her nose dramatically. "Your scent reeks of lies. You stole those from Ava. She's simply taking back what's hers.""Bullshit!" Laura lunged. Her hand partially extended as she reached for my earrings.The scuffle immediately drew Magnus' attention. The moment he saw Laura's reaction, his protective instincts activated.Without asking a single question, he charged forward, his fist rising. I wasn't surprised. Magnus had always chosen Laura.Before the blow could land, Anderson's hand intercepted him. His grip clamped around Magnus's wrist like forged steel.His Alpha aura instantly flooded the area, and several wolves nearby lowered their eyes instinctively."Mr. Smith,

  • The Alpha's Scorned Bride   Chapter 346

    Ava's POVI was stunned. Those earrings had always been with Laura and Kate. There was no way she would willingly part with them.I immediately looked up. "Did you negotiate with Laura?" My expression darkened. "Did she make things difficult for you?"The concern in my voice made Anderson laugh. He reached forward and lightly pinched my nose. "No."I glared at him. Anderson only smiled wider. "It wasn't Laura. It was Kate.""Kate?" I frowned.Immediately, Anderson's palm settled against my forehead again, smoothing away the wrinkle. His touch was annoyingly effective."I think she needed money." His expression turned thoughtful. "Maybe Beatrice's death finally made her realize the Smith family wasn't as stable as she believed."He shrugged. "So she took the earrings and tried to sell them."My eyes widened. "And you bought them back?"Anderson nodded. "That's all."I lowered my gaze to the earrings. "How much did you pay?"

    Ava's POVWood splintered across the floor. A pack of masked wolves stormed inside. Each one carried a heavy club. Their aggressive scents filled the room.My wolf instantly bared her fangs. It was obvious they weren't here to talk. They were here for blood.I frowned, and before I could say a word, the leader looked us over and barked at the men behind him."Those are the targets. Ava Smith and Kingsley Smith. Teach them a lesson!"My eyes narrowed. So that was it. The pieces clicked together instantly. Kingsley had publicly refused to support Laura at the hospital.She must have flown into one of her usual fits of rage and sent wolves after us. My wolf growled beneath my skin.Without wasting another second, I rushed back toward the couch and grabbed Kingsley's arm. "Kingsley!" I shook him hard. "Wake up!"His head lolled forward. "Laura sent people to kill us. Get up!"Unfortunately, despite how coherent he'd seemed during our conversa
