Semua Bab Divorcing the Blind Alpha: Bab 131 - Bab 140

Penelope POV"Blue-Claw Pack sent an invitation, Miss Penelope."Axton stands by the edge of my mahogany desk. He does not look me in the eye. His fingers twitch against the leather folder in his hands."Alpha Julian wishes to invite you to his birthday celebration tonight."I do not look up from my tablet. My stylus taps the glass screen. Three sharp clicks echo in the silent office."Drop it in the shredder, Axton."Axton hesitates. His boots shift on the hardwood floor. "He sent a personal courier. The courier is still waiting down in the lobby.""Tell security to throw him out of the building.""Understood."

Penelope POV"Get your hands off my dress before I break your fingers," I said, my voice cutting through the chatter of the foyer.Natalia did not move. Her fingers stayed clenched on the silk of my forest-green gown. She smelled like cheap vanilla and desperation."You think you own this place just because Kael invited you?" Natalia sneered. She stepped closer, trying to use her height to crowd me against the marble pillar. "You are nothing but a divorced stray, Penelope.""I am the daughter of the Rogue Pack Alpha," I said. I did not back down. I leaned into her face, letting her smell the raw, heavy copper of my Wolf. "And you are a third-rate television actress whose father had to buy her a crown."Natalia flinched. The color drained

Penelope POV“Get your hands off my dress before I break your fingers,” I said, my voice cutting through the bass thumping from the speakers.Kael blinked, his grin freezing for a fraction of a second before it widened. He dropped his hand from the hem of my green gown, raising both palms in mock surrender. “Come on, Les. You walk in looking like a goddess and expect me to just stand here?”“I expect you to act like an Alpha, not a toddler,” I said. I turned my back on him, my heels clicking sharply against the polished marble floor.Zaria made a loud, wet gagging sound right next to my ear. She spun on her heel, her dark hair whipping across her shoulder. “I cannot watch this. I am going to the bar before I throw up all over the Frost Pack’s expe

Julian POV"Did you honestly think that song was for you?" Natalia whispered, her breath clipping the edge of my ear.I did not turn to look at her.My eyes remained locked on the stage.The final note of the piano faded into the rafters of the Great Hall.The silence in the room felt heavy, thick, and suffocating.Penelope stood up from the wooden stool.Her movements were smooth.She did not glance toward my table once.She looked directly at Kael.Zaria stepped forward from the shadow of the velvet curtains, holding a velvet box.

Penelope's POV“Get the car, Eliora.”I did not wait for her answer. I yanked my designer clutch off the VIP table, the leather digging into my palm.“Already on it,” Eliora muttered. Her keys jangled in her hand as she stepped ahead of me. “Let us get out of this zoo before the stench of low-tier mongrels ruins my silk top.”I turned my back on the grand ballroom. Every pair of eyes in the room tracked my movement, but I kept my chin high, my heels clicking a sharp, mocking rhythm against the marble floor.Clack. Clack. Clack.They wanted to stare? Let them. They could spend the rest of the night suffocating on the drama Julian and his little trash heap had left behind. I had zero intention of breathing the same oxygen as them for a second longer.I pushed through the heavy glass double doors of the venue. The cold night air hit my bare shoulders instantly, carrying the sharp, bitter scent of upcoming rain. I walked down the stone steps and stopped at the edge of the kerb.The tarmac
