Chapter 101

Trista's POVCassian instantly gripped my hands. The heat of his palm carried the innate control of an alpha, subtly reminding me that he could handle the situation, and me."Samantha is gentle. She hates confrontation."He spoke with the flat certainty of someone stating a fact. "She sought you out with good intentions, trying to mend the relationship, trying to achieve peace."For a moment, I almost burst out laughing.My scent gland grew hot. A sharp, cold edge of pheromones leaked out uncontrollably—like a flash of steel, which I immediately recalled and buried deep.I looked up at him, my voice hard as ice. "Achieve peace between your Luna and your breeder? Cassian, do you even listen to yourself?"The shadows in the hallway corner were suffocating. We stared at each other, our breaths strained with unspoken conflict.He paused, then said, "You are my mate. Samantha is the past. I've reviewed the security footage from tonight, and there are witnesses. I didn't wrongly accuse Attw

Chapter 102

Third Person's POVAt the same time, Cassian had moved out of the Alpha house and into his new residence in the bay luxury district.It was a secluded, seaside territory under the Ironthorn pack's name, outside the main pack borders.Under the night sky, the living room balcony was open.Fred and Cassian stood side-by-side at the railing, each lighting a cigarette.The sea breeze, damp with salt, tore the smoke apart, which was instantly swallowed by the darkness.Fred had clearly heard about the incident.He squinted at Cassian, a cynical smirk on his lips. He gave a mocking thumbs-up, slowly shaking it. "You're a real piece of work. You even dared to lay hands on your mate's blood kin."His tone was less admiration, more entertained spectator.Cassian's face darkened. His voice was cold and hard as he corrected him, word by word. "I didn't attack him."He exhaled a plume of smoke, his gaze low."He forcibly struggled free," Cassian continued. "I was only restraining him. His wrist d

Chapter 103

Third Person's POVCassian stared blankly at the door to Trista's room.He didn't immediately argue, instead keeping his tone calm and steady. "I was out of line last night. I'm here to see how Attwater's hand is recovering."Ulva's face was stern, refusing to yield. "Attwater doesn't need your concern. Leave."Cassian knew they were furious, and anything he said would only fuel the fire.He spoke calmly regardless. "I know you misunderstand me. But Trista is still my mate."The statement hung in the living room like a nail driven into wood.Trista, hearing him from her room, finally came out.She walked up to Cassian, her face cold as frosted stone. Her voice was sharp and clear. "You've received the termination request. You and Samantha have long crossed the line. If you continue to be aggressive, I won't hesitate to publicize all your affairs and submit them to the Council and the Elder Council, letting everyone see what you've done."Cassian stood before her, unfazed by her threat

Chapter 104

Third Person's POVThe car cabin was instantly stifling.The two drove in silence, each guarding an invisible boundary.The line was sharp and clear, and neither was willing to cross it first.Just as dusk fell, the car smoothly pulled into the Ironthorn pack's main estate.Lights lined the fence. The territory barrier settled silently around them, like an invisible guard.A pack guard opened the door, and Trista stepped out.Wynn rushed over excitedly. "Luna Trista, I was worried you wouldn't come back—"Alaina affectionately took Trista's hand, leading her toward the living room, her tone eager and gentle. "Trista, I had the kitchen grill some fish for you. Enjoy it later."Cassian followed Trista. He watched his mother and sister lead her to the dining room, his gaze flickering.He was caught between two competing orders: the pack's appearance of normalcy and the fracture in his mating bond.Trista entered the dining room, still greeting the elders politely.Even though Cassian had

Chapter 105

Trista's POVI stood in the bathroom for a long time, hands braced on the counter, staring at my reflection.My face was pale, but my eyes were hard and cold.I didn't cry.I just suddenly realized I had endured this exact scenario too many times.When I emerged, the living room was already full of people.I stood back for a moment. The pain in my chest didn't dissipate; instead, it felt like it was forcing me, inch by inch, to make a choice.I knew clearly: if I didn't speak tonight, the matter would be dragged out further, slowly crushed by "decency," "holidays," and "family," leaving only me trapped where I was.I walked toward Howard, my voice steady, almost detached. "There are some things I need to say."Cassian's gaze instantly sharpened.He strode over and grabbed my wrist. The force wasn't heavy, but it conveyed an undeniable sense of control. "Trista and I have something to attend to. We'll be leaving now."In that moment, I distinctly felt the mating bond tighten within me.

Chapter 106

Trista's POVThe mattress sagged. My wrists were securely pinned, unable to brace myself, unable to turn over.I lay on my back beneath him in the most intimate, yet most humiliating position. Blood rushed to my face. Shame and fury exploded simultaneously.I gritted my teeth, my voice shaking but clear. "Cassian, let me up!"Cassian used one hand to pin my wrists above my head, the other clamping my waist, his grip impossibly steady.The mattress bowed beneath my back. He forced my breathing to follow his rhythm.He was too close.The scent of alcohol, mixed with his typically familiar scent, rushed over me, but it was torn apart by a sharper aroma—The pheromones of an Alpha pushed to the extreme, like burning iron, tinged with possession and restlessness, forcing its way into my nostrils.The back of my neck prickled. The site of the mating bond pulsed with a dull ache, like an old wound repeatedly exposed.His eyes were fiercely red.The redness wasn't intoxication; it was the col

Chapter 107

Third Person's POVCassian reached out and clamped Trista's arm, pulling her toward him.His grip wasn't rough, but it was undeniably strong.He raised his hand to wipe her tears. When his thumb touched her cheek, she only felt colder.He looked at her, his voice deepening. "Just for this, you're fighting me, threatening to ruin my reputation in front of my family?"Trista shoved him away in disgust, but the tears continued to stream down her face.She articulated every word clearly. "How many times do I have to tell you? I'm not fighting, and I'm not being willful. I genuinely want the termination."They stared at each other. Trista's tears became heavier, relentless.Cassian watched her quietly for a long moment. He then gripped her wrist again and led her into the study.The study door closed behind them, shutting out the lights and voices.Cassian pulled the termination agreement and the bank card from a drawer.In front of her, he fed the termination agreement into the shredder.

Chapter 108

Third Person's POVTrista whispered, "If I had known it would come to this, I wouldn't be here today if I had chosen to mate with you back then."Fred was stunned by her statement. "Trista, what if Cassian really has a compelling reason he can't tell you?"Trista shook her head, her voice chillingly calm. "No one can sway his decisions unless he is willing. The Ironthorn Alpha is never manipulated. He only moves in the direction he chooses."She paused, a hint of exhausted pleading finally entering her voice. "Fred, please help me convince him. Tell him to agree to the termination. I really can't take it anymore."Fred's expression turned grim. "Trista, you know Cassian's personality and tactics best. Even the Council might not be able to forcibly break your mating bond if he refuses."Trista was terrifyingly composed, as if she had pressed all her pain into her bones. Only a single, light sentence fell from her lips. "If the mating can't be broken, I will die."After safely dropping

Chapter 109

Third Person's POVLate that night, Cassian returned to his bedroom alone.He lay on his side in the expansive bed, reaching out to the space beside him.It was empty and cold.The dull ache radiating from his shoulder served as a persistent reminder: she had indeed been here just hours ago.That small throb of pain felt like a residual echo of the mating bond, rhythmically drumming against his nerves in the dark.The following morning, Trista went out to collect herbal ointments for Attwater.Since Silverlight's medications required registration at the healing center, she visited a partner pharmacy.As she stepped out of the pickup window with her medical bag, she ran straight into Samantha.Samantha was perched on high heels, wearing a form-fitting dress and flawless makeup, her stride as light as if she were heading to a date.There wasn't a trace of lupine frailty about her—she looked entirely too healthy for someone who had just been in an "accident."Seeing Trista, Samantha appr

Chapter 110

Trista's POVI saw Cassian step out of the car, and my brow instinctively furrowed.The moment Samantha saw him, she hurriedly bent down to scoop up the small boxes on the ground, shoving them into the deepest corner of her handbag.She moved with a desperate, frantic energy, as if terrified of being caught.She approached him with a submissive smile. "Cassian, what are you doing here?"Cassian's gaze lingered for a few seconds on the distinct finger marks on Samantha's cheek.He spoke with a voice that was cold and precise, "I'm here to pick up Trista."Behind him, the car window slid down, and I saw Alaina sitting inside.Panic instantly flooded Samantha's eyes. Guilt was written all over her face as she stammered an explanation. "Cassian, I just happened to run into Luna Trista while picking up a prescription. I was just saying hello."Fearing that staying a second longer would expose more cracks in her story, she clutched her bag and fled.Cassian walked up to me, his eyes searchi
