All Chapters of The Alpha's Scorned Bride: Chapter 331 - Chapter 340

Ava's POVBy morning, the werewolf media networks were in a full feeding frenzy. The pack channels, news feeds, gossip boards... everything had my name tearing through them.Ms. Ava Stone revealed as Victor Smith's hidden mate.Ms. Laura Stone confirmed as the other woman.The Stone sisters at war over one alpha male.It was all noise, endless noise.But one headline changed the rhythm of the entire storm.Ava Stone is the Stone family's unacknowledged daughter, but is she truly responsible for Juliet Jackson's death?That one didn't just trend. It dominated and spread through the network like a scent trail no one could erase.Every attempt to suppress it only made it stronger. It couldn't be buried.For two days straight, it stayed pinned at the top of every feed, like something deliberately anchored in place.I knew immediately this wasn't a coincidence. It was interference. Someone was acting in my favor

Ava's POVI had just managed to coax Jasper to sleep. He had been unusually clingy tonight, wrapping his tiny arms around my neck and refusing to let go until exhaustion finally dragged him under.After making sure he was comfortable, I quietly left his room.Stretching my sore arms, I padded downstairs. The moment I reached the living room, the front door opened.The familiar scents of Reuben and Nora drifted in first, followed by the two of them.Reuben's gaze landed on me, and he abruptly stopped. "Why aren't you asleep, Ava?"I stepped into the living room. "I just got Jasper settled." I looked between them. The exhaustion in their scents was impossible to miss. "Hungry? Should I make something?""Yes!" Nora said immediately. The next second, she was wrapped around me like an oversized puppy. "My Moon Goddess, yes."She buried her face against my shoulder. "Ava's cooking is the best. I'm starving. Please feed me."I laughed despite my

Ava's POVBen leaned back slightly. "I want you, Ava. Now that you have divorced Victor, please give me a chance."I immediately stood up. "I'm leaving.""Ava..." he said mildly, rising after me."That is a no from me, Mr. Styles."He stepped closer, wine glass still in hand. "Why? You think I'm worse than Victor?"That stopped me. My gaze lifted."No," I said calmly. "Victor is the worst man I've ever met." A faint smile touched my lips. "But I've already stepped into one trap. I'm not stepping into another just because the door is open."My voice stayed even. "My marriage nearly ruined me. I won't repeat it. Thank you for your help so far. That's where it ends."I turned and walked out without hesitation.*****The next day, Anderson brought me to the outskirts of Drakoria. The estate we arrived at belonged to an elderly man named Aston Ferdinand, a respected figure in the werewolf artistic circles.The moment we stepped

Ava's POV"The moment I heard he might be dead..." My voice cracked. "I was sad."The confession felt pathetic. After everything Victor had done, after all the pain, all the betrayal, all the heartbreak, I was still grieving.Anderson's eyes softened immediately. "Ava." His voice carried a warmth that made my throat tighten. "You're not made of stone. You hated him." He paused. "And you loved him."The words struck directly at my heart."No one erases feelings like that overnight."A weak laugh escaped me. "You really know what to say." I shook my head. "I thought you were supposed to be the cold one."His lips curved upward. "I just never met someone I wanted to say those things to before."For a moment, neither of us spoke. The air between us felt strangely warm.Before I could respond, the school gates opened. The teacher appeared with Jasper. The moment I saw him, some of the tension inside me eased.Jasper climbed into the vehic

Ava's POVThe moment I answered, Reuben's voice came through."Beatrice passed away."My breath caught. A cold laugh escaped me. "Dr. Reuben, not you too."But Reuben interrupted me, his voice grave. "She died of heart failure one hour ago."The laughter died in my throat."The entire Stone family is at the hospital." There was silence, then he added, "There are things about her death that don't make sense."My wolf immediately became alert. "Come to the hospital. I need to tell you in person."By the time I arrived at the hospital, chaos had erupted. Reporters crowded the entrance like vultures, their scents filling the air.The moment they recognized me, dozens of microphones were thrust in my face, and questions exploded from every direction."Ms. Ava, did you come because of Mrs. Stone's death?""Where were you when she died?""Do you have information about Victor Smith?""Your husband disappeared and your mother d
