All Chapters of Stand Back, Alpha: Our Son Is Gone : Chapter 171 - Chapter 180

Ken Pov Audrey, who was interrupted, frowned as she turned to look at the door, dissatisfaction on her face. Her hands still held mine, and for a moment, I almost yelled for them to get out, but it was at that moment Gavin, who had just entered, announced his presence.“Alpha, I was just coming to you when I met Lawyer Charles on the way, so I brought him along—”My heartbeat slammed against my chest, and for one terrifying second, it felt like the ground had disappeared beneath my feet.Sweat covered my back as I froze when he spoke. I looked at him, hoping he’d notice the signal I was giving him. I stared at him so hard that my eyes almost hurt, silently begging him to stop talking.My eyes turned cold as I looked at Gavin, who froze when he saw Audrey. His eyes widened a bit, then he turned to look at me, then back at Audrey.The room fell silent.I pursed my lips, then settled my eyes on Charles, who looked so confused, then back at Gavin as I sent him a cold glare.Just then, Au

Ken Pov The room became so quiet that even our breathing sounded loud. Charles’s head lowered as he fell into deep thought. He didn’t answer me, but from his gritted teeth and clenched fist, I somehow knew what his answer would be. My own fingers curled tighter at my side. Every second of silence felt longer than the last. A moment later, he finally raised his head and stared at me. I could see the sweat on his forehead, and this made me feel a bit guilty. For one heartbeat, I almost looked away, but just as quickly, it disappeared. Charles let out a deep breath, then looked at me seriously. “Alpha, this is a difficult thing to do.” My shoulders tensed. Then he continued. “But I really want to ask. How would this benefit you, Alpha? According to you, the Luna has found another Alpha and has moved on, so how do you think your idea would be of use?” I paused. My eyes narrowed slightly, and slowly, I turned to look out of the window. The room fell silent, and I could feel their

Audrey Pov When I found out Ken had betrayed me and married another woman, I felt distraught. For days, I lived like I had no soul. I cried and also missed exams. Even now, remembering that day made my chest tighten. My fingers curled against the dressing table until my nails hurt. Was it the drunken nights? The sickness and the heartache? This was the man who promised me heaven and earth. He was my first love and the only person I thought I would marry. But in just a month of going home, he had betrayed me by sleeping with another woman and getting married to her. Angry and frustrated, I poured it all out in clubs and bars until one day, I woke up naked on the bed, alone in an empty room. For a long moment, I couldn’t breathe. I pulled the blanket around myself and stared at the empty side of the bed, trying to remember what had happened. I could still remember the fear I had felt after realizing I had slept with a stranger. The disgust and also the anxiety that people would find

Kaida PovThe room was quiet, with only the sound of soft footsteps moving around the room. I sat down in front of the mirror, looking at my reflection, which seemed to glow even more due to my pregnancy.My hair was tied up in a loose ponytail, and Hannah stood behind me as she helped with adding accessories to my hair.“I wished I could put some simple makeup on you, but—” She paused, then looked at me through the mirror.I met her eyes and grinned brightly at her, as if showing her my face was already rosy and didn’t need any additional blush. Hannah raised an eyebrow, then burst into chuckles.“Okay. Okay. I get you. Aunty is just being fussy. I know you don’t like those things, so I wouldn’t force them on you.” I blushed at her words. Then she continued after pinching my cheeks, “… Besides, you’re so beautiful and don’t need it anyway.”I couldn’t help the smile that came to my face. My eyes lit up with happiness. It had been a long time since someone looked at me with such genui

Kaida Pov My body trembled heavily, and for a moment, I couldn’t come back to my senses and could only stare blankly into the air. The whole place had long fallen into loud silence, and all eyes turned to me. Once in a while, some came back to their senses and exclaimed. I even saw the gazes around me change to ones of disgust, and it sent chills down my spine. My ears rang loudly, and for a second, I forgot how to breathe. It felt as if those words had turned into countless sharp needles piercing my heart. Just then, I felt the temperature around me drop. My heart began to thump heavily, and even my wolf felt the pressure that fell. I snapped back to my senses, then immediately turned to where the pressure was coming from—It was Kabir. The moment I set my eyes on him, my heart tightened. He stood still, his face dark with rage, his eyes bloodshot, and his breathing heavy as if he was about to spit fire. I could even see the veins that bulged from his forehead and neck as if he
