Lahat ng Kabanata ng Dear Ex Mate, You're Mine to Ruin: Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

Lillian’s POVAaron’s expression remained neutral but I could see the calculation behind his eyes.“But here’s what you didn’t count on,” I continued, stepping closer to him without an ounce of fear. “My desire to see you destroyed is stronger than any manipulation you can throw at me. I don’t care if you fund a thousand memorials, I don’t care if every elder in this pack sings your praises, I don’t care if you stand here with those candles and pretend to be a changed man. I know exactly who you are, Aaron Moonstone, and nothing nothing will ever make me forget what you did to me.”The yard had gone completely silent, everyone staring at us with shock and growing discomfort.“So I’ll say it one more time,” I said, my voice carrying across the property. “Get out of my Nana’s place. All of you. Leave now, or I will make you leave, and pack law be damned.“​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​They all exchanged glances among each other. I watched them leave with clenched fists, waiting until the last car pu

Lillian’s POVI looked at Aaron one last time, making sure he saw the absolute finality in my eyes. “Leave this compound, Aaron. Right now. And don’t ever step foot in my family’s place again. You’ve desecrated my Nana’s memory enough for one lifetime.”“You’ll regret this,” he said, his voice taking on that threatening edge I remembered so well. “When your family members start dying from this plague, when you have to live with the guilt of knowing you could have saved them…..”“The only thing I’ll regret,” I interrupted calmly, “is not making you suffer sooner. But don’t worry, you trying to guilt trip me today has actually sped up my process. You’ll see just how much I regret things very soon.”Aaron’s face twisted with anger and frustration, his hands clenching into fists at his sides like he wanted to hit something but knew better than to try. “You were always like this, you know. Inconsiderate, hard to communicate with, impossible to reason with. No wonder our marriage failed….”

Dorian’s POVI’d been sitting in the living room for the past hour pretending to review quarterly reports, but my eyes kept drifting to the window and the driveway beyond it. Lillian and Celeste should have been home by now, and every minute that ticked by without their arrival made my wolf more restless in my head.Finally, I heard the sound of a car horn outside and I was on my feet immediately, the folders I’d been holding scattering across the table as I headed for the door. By the time I stepped outside, Raymond was already opening the car door and I could see Celeste slumped against Lillian’s shoulder, clearly asleep from the long journey.“Let me take her,” I said, reaching in to carefully lift Celeste from Lillian’s arms.The little girl stirred slightly but didn’t wake, just mumbled something incoherent and settled her head against my shoulder. I carried her inside and up to her room while Lillian followed behind. After tucking Celeste into bed, I turned to find Lillian stan

Aaron’s POVI was speeding down their street when I saw the Hendersons’ car backing out of their driveway, and I immediately slammed on my brakes and swerved to block their exit. They stopped abruptly, alarm crossing their faces as they realized who had just cut them off.I was out of my car before they could think about driving around me, stalking toward their vehicle with fury radiating off me in waves.“Why?” I demanded, not bothering with pleasantries. “Why did you pull out of my company without any warning? We’ve worked together for years!”The husband rolled down his window slowly, his expression carefully neutral in a way that told me he’d been expecting this confrontation. “We were tired of working with you, Aaron. We wanted to try out other ventures, explore different investment opportunities.”“Bullshit,” I spat. “You don’t just throw away years of profitable partnership because you’re suddenly tired. What did Lillian say to you? I know she was here yesterday.”They exchange

Lillian’s POVAfter we sent the anonymous tip to the IRS, I felt a rush of exhilaration that made my entire body hum with energy. I pulled up the stock exchange charts on my tablet, watching the numbers refresh in real time, and felt pure satisfaction wash over me as AMS Corporation continued its downward spiral. Aaron’s company was plunging down the charts steadily, losing value with every passing hour, and there was nothing he could do to stop it.My plan was working perfectly, every piece falling into place exactly as I’d envisioned. Soon Aaron would be left with nothing, no investors, no money, possibly even facing criminal charges for tax evasion. And if things got bad enough, I wouldn’t be surprised if the elder council moved to overthrow him as Alpha and replace him with someone more worthy of leading Moonstone Pack.“We should celebrate,” Dorian said, interrupting my thoughts. “Party hard tonight. We’ve earned it after pulling off something this big.”I looked up from the tabl
