Lahat ng Kabanata ng After My Husband's Affair, I Met My True Love Alpha: Kabanata 231 - Kabanata 240

Third Person's POVEmma sank back into the armchair, absentmindedly tugging at the hem of her dress. When she saw Theodore's stare trailing after Seraphina as she moved toward the kitchen, the Omega woman cleared her throat softly. "Alpha Theodore, your visit really caught me off guard. Is there something specific you wanted?""Nothing big. Just passing by." He stretched out his legs, his every move as polished as it was vaguely intimidating - classic Alpha aura. "Had some free time this morning over at Crescent Bay."No matter how flimsy the excuse, it somehow sounded perfectly legitimate coming from him. That's the thing about being used to power - people like him believed everything they did was justified.Emma forced down the irritation rising inside. Part of it came from certain buried secrets; the rest, from her sense of debt to the Swift family.Back then, that older Luna had taken them in when they had nowhere else to go, gave them a roof -

Third Person's POVTheodore stood frozen on the sidewalk, his gaze trailing after Sebastian's car until it disappeared around the corner. A faint, bitter smile tugged at his lips. "He's outdone Valerius, no doubt about that."That single thought weighed heavy in his gut like a stone. His old friend had raised a successor - an Alpha, yes, but also a born leader. Valerius had four strong kids, a wife who stayed by his side, and a legacy that could outlive generations.And Theodore? A son who died too soon. A daughter who never took her first breath. Another trapped in a childlike mind. And now all hope dumped on a nephew.He slumped down onto a nearby granite bench, exhaustion pressing down on his shoulders like years had suddenly caught up."Alpha, are you alright?" his assistant asked, her voice laced with genuine worry.Theodore didn't answer. He couldn't.Across the street, under the wide canopy of an oak tree, a plain silver sedan

Seraphina's POVMy body went cold, like someone had flipped a switch.That cozy warmth from just a moment ago - the kind that had my cheeks burning and knees weak - gone in an instant.I stared at Cassandra sitting stiff-backed on the massive couch, like she belonged here. Her chin was slightly lifted, her eyes flicking over us with that chilly, judging stare. She looked so at ease, as if she was the hostess and I was the one intruding.A chill crept up my arm.Seriously? Not even one night? Not even a few quiet hours where I could forget the drama and just be with him? That's all I wanted. One night.All I came to do was play with Brioche.All I craved was a tiny slice of peace.But clearly, Elinor Croft had other plans. Her patience had totally run out."You two..."Cassandra's gaze locked onto our intertwined hands, sharp and unrelenting.She was trying to keep her cool, but I could see the twitch at the

Seraphina's POVBoth Cassandra and I stood there, mouths slightly open, speechless.We awkwardly watched the man stroll straight into the dining room, holding a cat like it was the most normal thing ever. He didn't bother keeping up the fragile peace in the room - just barged right in and stirred everything up like a total jerk.We pretended we hadn't heard him. Cassandra buried her face in her phone, scrolling like her life depended on it. I turned my head to the window, fixated on the slow descent of dusk like it was the most fascinating thing I'd seen all day."Miss Seraphina, Miss Cassandra, dinner is ready," Jack said gracefully, voice calm and polite. "Please, help yourselves."I already felt like this meal was going to be torture - more like a chore than a dinner.Cassandra stood up right away. "Great," she said breezily, "the stuff on the plane was awful. I'm starving." Then she headed for the dining room, heels tapping fast across the floor.A part of me was practically shout

Seraphina's POVHe didn't knock, didn't pull any alpha power move to barge his way in. Even if I locked him out, he would've waited. No question about it.At first, I froze a little in his arms. Then, my will just... gave up. I melted into the kiss - deep, slow, and way too easy to get lost in. My arms found their way around his neck while I soaked in the warmth of his body and that familiar scent of his that somehow made me feel both safe and breathless.Honestly, if this keeps up, I'm gonna completely lose my mind over this insanely attractive wolf. Who am I kidding? That might've already happened.We stayed locked in that kiss by the apartment door like we had all the time in the world.When he didn't show any signs of stopping - in fact, he was going for more - I bit his bottom lip, just enough to make my point. He let out a low, muffled groan, finally backing off just a little, like it physically pained him.With our foreheads resting t
