All Chapters of My Second Chance Mate Is My Ex Alpha’s Nemesis : Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Liena POV The black car rolled through the tall iron gates and onto the long private driveway. The gates closed behind us. The driveway stretched ahead like a quiet road into a luxurious villa. Thick green lawns spread out on both sides. Tall flower trees lined the path. In the distance the main mansion looks the same. It hasn’t changed at all over 19 years. Its white walls glowed in the light. And right there on the pillar near the gate, clear golden letters spelled out the estate name, my name: Liena’s Estate. I sat still for a moment after the car stopped. Then I opened the door and climbed down. My shoes touched the clean gravel, as I felt the air welcoming me. Immediately, two maids came down the front steps almost at once. Their faces changed when they saw me. One of them pressed a hand to her chest excitedly. “Miss Liena,” she said in a soft voice. “It has been such a long time. We never thought we would see you walk up these steps again.” The second maid nodded quic

Liena POV Kael didn't say a word in my defense, but for a second, I almost thought he would. He just stood there, watching Helena with that same blank look he always wore, and somehow the silence felt like it was on my side. Maybe I wanted it to be. Maybe I was tired of being the only one who noticed when something was wrong. Ethan squirmed in Helena's grip. "Mom Liena is not causing trouble," he said, his small voice firm. "Liena is nice. You're the one who…" "Go play, sweetheart," Helena cut him off, her smile stretching tight across her face. She set him down on his feet and gave him a light push toward the other children near the punch table. Ethan looked back at me once, his eyes searching, before he shuffled off, dragging his feet like he didn't want to go. Helena turned back to me, and just like that, her whole face softened, like someone had flipped a switch. "I'm sorry about that," she said, pressing a hand to her chest. "Ethan is a smart boy, but he's still small. He get

Liena POV Just then, the voice of the organizer called out. “Let’s welcome the alpha for his speech.” They called Kael up to the stage right after Helena finished. Someone near the front started clapping. The moment he began to walk towards the stage, Helena’s face was filled with smiles and excitement realising she was going to stand beside her husband on the stage for their son and not me. The stage lights brightened a little as Kael left my side without looking at me and walked up the steps. His face kept that same smiling and welcoming look he wore from earlier. He took the microphone from Helena and stood there for a moment, his eyes moving slowly over the crowd. Then he spoke in that flat voice of his. “Thank you for coming tonight,” he said. “This day matters to the pack, to me and my wife.” He turned a little toward me and then to Helena. “I want to thank Helena for giving birth to Ethan. She raised him the right way. He is a good boy.” A few people nodded. Kael kept ta

Liena POV Mara stood at the front of the stage with the microphone still in her hand. The two enforcers stayed a few steps behind her, their faces blank and their eyes moving slowly over the quiet hall. The pack had gone still after her last words. Even the soft shuffle of feet had stopped. She looked out at the crowd and spoke in the same clear voice. And for some reason, I was ready for whatever was about to happen. “Since today is the adoption,” she said, “I brought my friends who work at the adoption center. They came with me so we can make everything official right now. Free of charge. You will not have to pay a dime. It is the little gift I can offer the alpha family.” A few soft murmurs rose from the seats. Some people nodded like they thought the idea was kind. Others glanced at each other with careful faces. Mara turned her head toward me. Her eyes met mine for a second, steady and direct. “Congratulations, Luna,” she said. “To process the papers legally for the adoptio

Liena POV The woman’s challenge still rang in the hall when Kael finally opened his mouth. For the first time that night his words stumbled. “I… this is… everyone needs to listen,” he said, voice flat even while the sentences broke apart. “There is no need for this. The papers will be fixed. Sit down. We can talk later.” The pack did not sit. The noise only grew louder. Businessmen who had come as guests started rising from their seats. One of them, a tall alpha from a neighboring territory, shook his head hard. “I cannot keep contracts with a man who forges official documents,” he said. “My pack will not deal with liars.” Another associate pulled out his phone. “I’m calling my people right now. We walk away from every deal. An alpha who lies about his own mate bond is not someone we trust.” Kael’s face stayed blank. He lifted one hand in a slow, empty gesture. “Do not do that. This is a misunderstanding. Nothing more. The certificate can be corrected. Our business does not need
