All Chapters of HIS REJECTED PLUMP MATE IS A GENIUS TECH QUEEN: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

TRINITY POVTheo stepped inside, shutting the door behind him.My heart skipped a beat.“What are you doing here?” I whispered.My eyes darted to Sam as he stirred in his sleep before returning to Theo. He remained by the doorway, his gaze sweeping slowly around the room.I followed it.Three years ago, the first time he’d stepped into my room, disgust had been written all over his face.Now, it was gone.In its place was something that looked almost like appreciation. Something I’d never expected to see.Then his eyes settled on me. The faint smile on his face disappeared.Those icy blue eyes darkened. I followed his gaze.He was staring at Sam.My arms instinctively tightened around my son.“Who gave you the right to walk into my room unannounced?” I asked through clenched teeth.Theo pushed away from the door without answering. He stopped at the foot of the bed.“Who is he?”“Why are you here?” I shot back.“Trinity.” His voice dropped into a low growl.I swallowed. “I need you to

TRINITY POV“Help me!”That was Theo’s voice.I wanted to ignore it. Whatever was happening to him wasn’t my business. Then another guttural growl echoed through the hallway.“He’s going to kill me! Someone help me!”I didn’t wait. I raced back toward the room, my breath catching the moment I reached the doorway.I froze.Theo was on the floor, barely clinging to consciousness.His face looked as though someone had taken a hammer to it. His lips were split, one eye was swollen nearly shut, and cuts covered his face.My gaze darted to Cassius. Blood dripped from his knuckles as he stood over Theo, his expression murderous.I swallowed.Had he done this for me? It seemed likely.I hadn’t realized he’d intended to defend me when he’d walked away earlier. I’d assumed he’d been angry and simply wanted to get away from me.“Trinity…” Theo’s voice was barely audible.I looked back at him.For a moment, I thought he was dying. Then he crawled toward me and wrapped his arms around my leg.“Bab

THEO POV That bitch. “She’ll regret this,” I snarled, staring at myself in the mirror. I pressed a cold rag against the cut on my lip and winced. It fucking stung. That bastard’s fist packed a punch. I’d watched him beat the shit out of me, and I hadn’t even managed to land a decent blow on him. “How the fuck is me messing with that fat pig any of his business?” He was only her fucking stepbrother. His privilege was being the Alpha. Yet he’d acted as though he had some special authority over her. “Maybe he does.” My wolf, Varak, appeared in my reflection, his eyes glowing gold. “It is your fault for letting our mate go. And, honestly, I enjoyed seeing someone brave enough to stand up for her.” I slammed the rag into the sink. “You’re happy I got beaten up?” I growled under my breath. “You couldn’t even come out to help me when I called you. If you had, this wouldn’t have happened.” I pointed accusingly at my reflection. “And for the Goddess’s sake, you’re my wol

TRINITY POV“What?” I whispered, staring at her. “What are you talking about?”Maria didn’t answer immediately.She picked up the bucket filled with dirty water and the mop and carried them out of the kitchen. A few seconds later, she returned empty-handed.I waited for her to explain what she meant.Instead, she started checking the refrigerator, making a mental list of the things she needed to prepare for the household.“Do you need anything?” she asked when she noticed I was still watching her.“Yes,” I murmured, bobbing my head. “I need to make breakfast for Sam. He loves his pancakes with strawberries and blueberries, but I can’t seem to find any in the fridge.”“Strawberries and blueberries,” Maria mused. “Only the Alpha eats those.”So he loved the same fruits as Sam.Great.What else did they have in common?And how long was I going to keep this charade going before everyone discovered what I’d done?Maria looked at me. Something flickered in her eyes. I swallowed and looked a

TRINITY POV Between trying to keep myself from being thrown against the window because of Cassius’s reckless driving and pretending not to listen, I barely noticed when Scarlett began her insults. “What do you think about a contest for the piglets in Evercrest, baby?” Scarlett asked barely five minutes into the drive. She turned slightly, giving me a smirk before looking back at Cassius. “We don’t raise pigs in Evercrest,” Cassius murmured, his attention fixed on the road. “Don’t we?” Scarlett asked, a frown tugging at the corner of her lips. She glanced at me again. “Why don’t we ask Trinity? I’m sure she’ll know.” “Does she?” Cassius asked, one brow raised. I pulled out my phone and pretended to be interested in whatever was on the screen. Of course, I knew she wasn’t talking about actual pigs. She was talking about people like me. Chubby women. I didn’t find it funny. Surprisingly, I wasn’t angry either. She must have taken a lesson or two from Marisol. I alm
