Ryan’s POVAfter sending the message, I lean back on my couch and take a sip of wine, relishing on how smart I am. Elena shouldn’t take long to reply. She had to be desperate by now.Yet as the minutes passed, I never heard my phone beep. Strange. Had I left it on mute by accident? To confirm I hadn’t missed her response, I reached for my phone and opened our conversation.Anger surfaced as soon as I realized she had left me on sent. Enraged, I started typing a new threat. I found it even more weird when it didn’t go through. Ultimately, I jumped off the couch and called her, but it went straight to voice mail. By the time I finally understood what was going on, I was fuming.She had blocked me.“That bitch!” I growled out loud, losing my temper.Consumed by rage, I tossed my phone against the wall, then swatted my arm at the side table. The crystal glass and the bottle crashed onto the floor, shattering into a million shards as wine soaked through the expensive rug.That was the scen

Adrian’s POVSurprise washed over me as I heard my daughter introduce the girl I’d had a one-night stand with as her friend. But underneath it, something else started to surface.Suspicion.“Is this… the old friend from Shadowfang you mentioned?” I asked Judy, my eyes never leaving Elena.“Yes!” my daughter replied excitedly.I couldn’t keep my eyes from narrowing as I quickly puzzled the pieces together.Disgust was the first thing I felt as I sized up the she-wolf in front of me. It seemed every female who came into my life wanted something from me, and Elena was no different. She must have planned to use my daughter to get closer to me.She was even greedier than I’d expected.I almost believed she was just an innocent girl when she refused my financial compensation. Now it was obvious she must have only done that because she thought she could take even more from me. I’d been kind to have her mother released from the dungeons, and that wasn’t enough for her.“You can’t judge mate w

Elena’s POVI felt Ryan stiffen against me as he heard his fiancee’ voice.For a moment, a pinch of satisfaction settled inside of me. There was no way he could get out of this situation. Not when she had just caught him red-handed trying to forcefully mark me. Ryan’s true nature was about to be exposed, and Fiona would finally see him for who he really was.Or so I had thought.Until he shoved me down, pretending that was why he had been so close to me all along.A gasp broke from me as I hit the ground hard, my knees and elbows scraping against the rough concrete surface. My wolf growled viciously inside my head. She was done being pushed around by our ex-mate. But before either of us could do anything, his irritating voice cut through the tense silence.“My love, I decided to go ahead to get us a private booth,” he began, rushing back to Fiona’s side. “That’s when I ended up bumping into this delusional Omega again.”Fiona eyed him with suspicion, but still listened as he continued

Elena’s POV“You’re going to love our pack!” Judy said excitedly as she led me into the Alpha King’s huge guest house.Her excitement was contagious. I appreciated her energy, especially because I was still a little unsure about being back here. Just yesterday I had left this place feeling humiliated.“I’ve never been to other packs,” I mused, trying to focus on our conversation rather than my nervousness. “Is the Phantom Pack a lot different from Shadowfang?”“Very much! For starters, our territory is a lot bigger. At least three times the size of Shadowfang!”My eyes widened. “Really?”Judy nodded. “We also have this super tall waterfall with crystal clear water. I spend a lot of time there.”“It sounds breathtaking,” I confessed, trying to picture it in my head.“Wait until you see it with your own eyes.” She smiled and winked at me. “You’ll be there soon. We’re all leaving together right after my sister’s wedding.”Her observation startled me. Judy didn’t even notice it, going on
