Melanie's POV

By the third evening, my communication stone buzzed. It was Trista.

"Mom, when are you coming home..." Her voice was soft and followed by a short silence.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"I'm so bored alone here at the villa. Dad isn't home either," she complained quietly.

That's how I found out Archer was gone.

Knowing his schedule over the last two months, I figured he was probably handling corporate business and making alliance visits to other packs.

Those kinds of trips usually meant

  • The Breaking Point of Mate: Giving Up on My Alpha   Chapter 117

    Third Person's POVMelanie pressed her lips together and focused on her soup, ignoring him completely.She already didn't have much of an appetite, and having him sit there acting like this only made her chest feel tighter.Archer leaned his head on his hand, watching her with a trace of clinical curiosity in his dark eyes. "All these years, and you still don't even know how to pick a fight?"Melanie turned her head away, giving him a cold profile.Archer let out a sigh, his voice carrying a hint of softness that even he didn't seem to notice. "Fine, I'll stop teasing. Just eat."In the severance agreement Melanie had filed, she had been crystal clear: she was walking away with nothing.No property, no assets, not even a legal battle over Trista's custody. She had assumed that given Archer's self-serving nature, he would have called her to sign the final papers ages ago.But it had been three months since she left that agreemen

  • The Breaking Point of Mate: Giving Up on My Alpha   Chapter 116

    Third Person's POVIt was Gillian on the line.The second Melanie picked up, her friend's voice hit her like a wave of heat. "Melanie! I saw it with my own eyes! Archer is out having dinner with the Haines family right now, and Camille is sitting right next to him! Does he even give a damn about how that looks for you as his Luna?"Melanie's knuckles turned white as she gripped the phone.Gillian let out a low curse. "Damn it! Why am I always the one who runs into this trash? I seriously never want to see those two in the same room again!"After venting, she asked urgently, "Melanie, where are you?""At my grandmother's... the Red Rose Pack," Melanie said quietly, her voice sounding a little fragile."You went back alone?""With Trista and Moira."Gillian let out a sharp, mocking laugh. She caught the irony instantly. "So, Archer uses the 'busy with pack business' excuse to blow off your family, then turns around and tak

    Third Person's POV"The vibe at the winter camp was actually amazing," Melanie said. As she recalled the bonfire from the night before, her eyes softened with a warmth Archer hadn't seen in a long time—a spark that had been missing for years. "We had snowball fights, built snowmen, played hide-and-seek... everyone had a blast. There's a sense of freedom out there that you just can't find in the city."She was telling the truth.By that mountain fire, when she briefly forgot she was Archer's neglected mate, she had finally felt that unrestrained freedom an Alpha is supposed to have.Archer's hand, which had been flipping through a newspaper, went rigid.He stared at her, his dark eyes filled with a deep, cold scrutiny.This feeling of things slipping out of his control made the Alpha, who was used to being worshipped, feel a sudden, inexplicable restlessness.Trista, hearing all this, felt a flash of longing followed by an even b

  • The Breaking Point of Mate: Giving Up on My Alpha   Chapter 114

    Third Person's POVOnce upon a time, Trista used to cling to her just like this.Back then, a little woven basket or a simple paper airplane was enough to keep her excited for an entire day.But those days of total, unspoken trust had been buried under last year's snow in Los Angeles, right alongside that "Mommy" title.That night, Myra insisted on sleeping in Melanie's tent.Dwight looked at Melanie, his deep eyes silently asking for permission.Melanie looked down at Myra's pleading face and finally gave a small nod.The werewolf pup scrambled into her arms, bringing a wave of warm, milky scent with her.Even though they shared a tent, they had their own sleeping bags.Myra's plan to burrow into Melanie's bag for a cuddle was shot down, so she had to settle for grabbing Melanie's hand through the thick down layers before finally drifting off.Myra's constitution was definitely on the weaker side for a werewolf.

  • The Breaking Point of Mate: Giving Up on My Alpha   Chapter 113

    Third Person's POVAs the sky bruised into a deep purple, the campsite lights flickered on one by one. The charcoal grills started to sizzle, sending up the smell of searing meat and seafood that mixed perfectly with the crisp mountain air."You like shrimp?" Dwight asked, handing her a couple of freshly grilled skewers."Thanks," Melanie said, taking them. The warmth of the food felt good against the chill.The campsite was starting to buzz. In a nearby clearing, people were stacking logs for the night's bonfire.Dwight looked at her. "Want to join in?""I'm up for whatever."Dwight was about to say something when his phone buzzed in his pocket. It was Edric.He stepped away a few paces before answering."Drinks later?" Edric shouted over the line."Pass. You guys have fun.""What are you doing? It's the weekend..."Before he could finish, Myra came bouncing over with a chicken wing in her hand. "Un

    Third Person's POVAfter hitting send, Melanie tossed her phone aside. She was done letting "past" drama clutter up her head.Across town at the estate, Trista was messing around on Archer's phone.When she saw the reply, she literally jumped off the sofa. Her pent-up "pup" energy exploded into the room, making the heavy air in the study feel instantly lighter."Daddy! Mommy said she's busy! That means I can ask Camille to come to the parent-teacher conference, right?"Archer, head down and buried in paperwork, paused for a heartbeat. He gave a non-committal "Mhm.""Yes! Awesome!" Trista cheered. Her pupils narrowed into tiny slits—a flash of gold that only happens when a werewolf is truly hyped."I'll be going, too," Archer added.Trista stuck her tongue out and gave him a huge grin. "Duh! If Camille's going, there's no way you're staying home."The next day at Hilltop Tech.Melanie was double-checking syst
