บททั้งหมดของ Seducing My Ex-Mate's Lycan: บทที่ 51 - บทที่ 60

Patience's POV"I will not sign any letter!" I refused flat-out, without a second thought.Our mating bond was already past saving anyway.Kelsey's face immediately darkened. His Alpha aura surged again, and his vertical pupils flashed in his eyes.The raw aggression in his tone was impossible to hide. "They are my family!""So what?" My disappointment deepened. "Just because they're your family, I have to forgive them no matter how badly they hurt me?""If they had succeeded yesterday, do you know what would have happened to me?"I took a sharp breath and said every word clearly. "I would be humiliated and ruined. Madison would watch, feeling secretly smug. Hattie would film the whole thing and post it on Instagram—all just so I wouldn't get a penny in the divorce settlement!"Kelsey opened his mouth, but nothing came out.After a long silence, Kelsey spoke, his voice hoarse and pleading. "I promise this will never happen again! Madison is sick. She can't handle any stress. Hattie is

Third Person's POV"Winston, I saw you and Mr. Mitchell just now, so I brought Kelsey and his friend over to say hello." Hazel smiled as she spoke."Hazel, good to see you."Winston smiled back, then turned to Leonard. "Mr. Mitchell, this is the niece I mentioned—she's NY Airline's first female captain. Maybe she'll be piloting your flight someday."The people nearby chimed in with compliments. "You're truly impressive, Ms. Cook."Hazel soaked up the praise.This was the most direct recognition of her years of hard work, the honor she deserved for becoming a female captain."You're all too kind," Hazel said, feigning modesty. "I was just lucky to become the first female captain for NY Airlines.""You certainly were lucky," a lazy voice cut in suddenly.Leonard's gaze landed on Hazel. "I heard that when you were a regular pilot, you were sent to deliver relief supplies, and your co-pilot suddenly died. You assisted

Third Person's POVEveryone went quiet. Leonard had absolutely no reason to make up a story like that about Patience.Kelsey was completely humiliated. Leonard's statement basically announced to the entire room that Hoffman Tech's success was all because of Patience.He wanted to push back, but the words totally jammed in his throat.Memories of working side-by-side with Patience suddenly flooded his mind.Whenever he was stuck on a huge decision, Patience always had the key insight. Plus, Patience was the one who personally spearheaded most of the biggest deals.He'd always just assumed he was lucky to have her, and that was why those projects worked out.But what if... that wasn't luck at all?What if it was all purely Patience's talent?A cold dread washed over him, and he broke out in a sweat.Leonard scoffed. "Kelsey, you should just be thankful Patience stuck with you for three years. She's got awful judgmen

Patience's POV"Just call it paying me back for the clothes by hanging out for a bit."I pursed my lips, hesitated for a few seconds, then nodded. "Fine. How many rounds?""Let's do five rounds, ten shots each," he said.The moment he finished speaking, a staff member quickly walked over, carrying the guns, ammo, and ear defenders.I expertly checked the gun, loaded the magazine, and put on the ear protection.Even though I hadn't touched a gun since leaving the Royal Legion, the movements were etched into my muscle memory; I performed them flawlessly.I raised the gun toward the target in the distance, locked my sight on the bullseye, and took a deep breath.Aim, shoot!I could feel Cyrus's gaze on me, but I ignored it, focusing only on the target sheet.The first round ended quickly. I lowered the gun and adjusted my breathing slightly.Then came the second, the third...Cyrus and I took turns shooting. Each time the scores were reported, we were neck and neck, with no major differe

Patience's POVI returned to Ironclaw and saw Kelsey already sitting on the living room sofa, waiting for me with a dark expression."Patience, do you really want to divorce me that badly?" he opened the conversation, a flicker of resentment in his voice."There's no reason for our mating to continue," I stood in the center of the room, keeping a distance. My tone was calm but firm."You're going to break your oath before the Moon Goddess over these trivial things? What do you even think a mating bond is?" Kelsey's voice rose, clearly irritated."What Madison and Hattie did to me—is that trivial? Your relationship with Hazel—is that trivial?""They've already paid the price. Isn't that enough?" he immediately countered.I found his logic laughable. Just because the aggressors paid a price, the victim must forgive them?The whole idea was absurd."And besides, Hazel and I are just friends! I never slept with h
