Semua Bab After My Husband's Affair, I Met My True Love Alpha: Bab 11 - Bab 20

Seraphina's POVI agreed to everything Marcus asked.The second I said "okay," I caught that flash in his eyes-that smug, I-win kind of look.He really thought that dangling my parents' safety over my head would be enough to shove me back into his golden cage, like some bird begging for crumbs.He gave me his so-called permission to "travel," like he's doing me some massive favor.But he knows-so long as my parents are living inside Crescent Tribe territory, I'm still tied to him with this invisible string. No matter how far I run, the other end's stuck in his palm.Thing is, he doesn't realize-I've already started planning how to cut that damn string.I can't even explain it, but something about Sebastian made me trust him.And yeah, I don't get it either-we barely talked a few times, and he gives off serious danger vibes as the Shadow Pack's Alpha.Maybe it's the calm, detached look in his eyes. So unlike Marcus.Or maybe it's just because when I was falling apart, he caught me.My

Seraphina's POVI had no idea how I even drove out of Crescent Corporation.That office I had poured my heart into now felt like a gross animal pen, every inch reeking of Maria and Marcus's disgusting little affair.That stench followed me-from the elevator to the garage and into my car. It stuck to my skin, crawled into my nose-I nearly gagged just remembering it.Shame and nausea gripped my throat like a vise. I rolled down the window all the way, but the cold night wind couldn't wash off that filth inside me.Eventually, I pulled over. My body couldn't take it anymore. I collapsed over the steering wheel, retching dryly.There was nothing in my stomach, so I just heaved painfully, bile burning its way up my throat.My hands shook as I grabbed my phone and called Victoria."Seraphina!" she answered instantly, voice anxious and sharp. "Are you okay? Everything go through? Did that bitch give you trouble?""Victoria..." The moment I heard her voice, everything I had bottled up all day

Seraphina's POVI woke up sprawled on a fancy hotel bed, my limbs heavy like they were filled with lead, and my head spinning in dull waves.Blinking hard, I forced my eyes open, the blurry outlines around me slowly coming into focus.A dimly lit hotel suite.The air stank-cheap cologne, sweat, and that unmistakable grime that clings to rogue werewolves.I wasn't alone.There were seven, maybe eight male werewolves scattered around the room. They all had towels thrown over their waists, their chests littered with rough tattoos.Their eyes raked over me, full of perversion and malice. At the foot of the bed was a disgusting collection of adult toys, and among them, syringes filled with some nasty-looking substance.My heart pounded like a drum, but my body wouldn't respond, dead weight against the mattress.I tried to wiggle my fingers. Nothing."Well, what do we have here? A pretty little wolf." One of them, a scar slicing across his cheek, stepped toward me with a sick grin."Look at

Sebastian's POVEvery nerve below my waist was a live wire.Yeah-my cock twitched hard in my jeans, straining against the zipper like it wanted out, now. And when she looked at me like that, voice wrecked with need, begging for just a taste of relief...Fuck. I nearly lost it.But this wasn't her.Not really.The drug was in control, not her heart. Not her wolf.She couldn't even sense what I was to her. She didn't know I was her second mate-the one fate gave her after the first shattered her.Most wolves don't recognize a second bond right away. Not when the first ends in betrayal. It takes time for the soul to stop bleeding.I knew that.And still-her scent was in my head, her slick heat pressed tight against me, thighs parted, center grinding exactly where I was hardest.All I had to do was unzip.Just one motion.I could bury myself in her and take what every cell in my body was screaming for.She wouldn't stop me.Hell, she was begging for it.But I would never forgive myself.I

Seraphina's POVThe fire in Marcus's eyes was suddenly replaced by sheer disbelief. "Wait... when the hell did that happen?""Right when I caught you in the parking garage with your face buried in that blonde chick's chest. You couldn't wait to sign it," I said calmly."You played me?" Marcus finally exploded. His veins bulged as he lunged forward, gripping my throat. "I didn't agree to this! How dare you?!"I smacked at his arm, trying to break free.The more he lost it, the more the Elders would see how messed up he was-and the easier it'd be for me to walk away clean.Grimhilde rushed over immediately."Marcus! Get a grip! You really want every Tribe to see you as the Alpha who can't keep it together? Want Crescent Corporation's stock to tank by morning?"Marcus's jaw tightened, and finally, his grip let up.I shoved him off and doubled over coughing.He stared at me with a cold, dead look-like I was already gone.But then, that look cracked. It wasn't anger underneath. It was some
