Betrayed Novel Maddy And Tobias Novels & Stories

~HUDSON~ The other one took over from Rowan and explained how they might have tampered with her fingerprints, “with one word that Maddison is not alone and whoever she's working for must be powerful.” “Of course, I… Are you sure Gabby isn't behind this?” I asked, as Gabby was my friend, but she was also part of the team when I worked for that politician, so she knew a lot, but for her to betray me like this? No, I doubted it as she had changed; she didn't want anything to do with that life anymore. None of us wanted it anymore; even Rowan and the rest were now just there working for me, and I didn't ask them to do things that were sinister like before.

“Until he left her behind.” That hit too close to home. Abandonment. Love turned violent. Pain twisted the family. “She played the long game,” I whispered. "Stayed close to me. Learned what you felt for me. And then made sure Xavier knew when to strike.” Maximus nodded once. His face was made of stone. But I saw the crack behind his eyes. “She betrayed you to protect him,” I said. “No,” he corrected. "She betrayed you... to kill me." Later that night, Leif handed me a report with trembling hands.

and drenched me in freezing water. Day two: someone ground glass into my food. My stomach cramped from hunger. Day three: three women dragged me into a bathroom stall and beat me until my vision blurred. I clenched my jaw, refusing to scream. Blood trickled from the corner of my mouth. The ringleader grabbed my chin. “Heard you pissed off the Voss Mafia,” she sneered. “Word is… we’re supposed to ‘teach you a lesson.’” Every ounce of love I’d ever had for Pierce Voss died right there.

Everyone froze, staring in confusion. Jason’s smile stiffened, and Summer’s eyes widened in disbelief. Liam couldn’t contain himself. “Sir, Emily didn’t even take the last science exam. Why are you praising her?” “She didn’t take the science exam?” The teacher blinked, puzzled. “Who told you she didn’t take it?” “She said so herself!” Sophie pointed at me urgently. “She didn’t go into the exam hall that day and even used a fake Harvard Early Admission letter to fool everyone! “Don’t be fooled, sir!”

My heart raced as I stared at him. Everyone had seen and now they all knew I was the Alpha’s true mate. Not my sister. Lucas stood rooted to the spot, his expression caught between need and disbelief. I’d just ruined their entire anniversary party but my wolf didn’t want to hear it. It was incredibly difficult to keep my body from going forward and tearing Marietta off my mate.

“Take a deep breath. We’ll get it back.” Tomasso Mitchell. That bastard. One of my Capos, the man I trusted, had the audacity to betray me. He was drowning in debt, desperate for cash, and instead of coming to me, he stole the one thing that mattered most to this family. If I find him, I will end him. “Where’s Fabio?” I snap, already marching toward my drawer. My fingers brush over the cold steel of my Glock as I pull it out and load it. Silvio whistles low. “Whoa, you’re really heading to Mitchell’s mansion?”

One wrong step, and all her efforts to keep the balance could come crashing down. The night descended, casting an ominous stillness over the compound. Jessica, Gregory, Tesla, and Elara—all were bound in a web of secrets and lies, each carefully treading the line between ambition and ruin. And at the heart of it all, unaware of the machinations around her, was Summer—an innocent caught in a labyrinth of treachery.

Inside was a tabloid, headline stretched across the front page in thick black letters: THE MISSING WARD RETURNS: A MARRIAGE BUILT ON LIES? The photos hit harder than the words. Elias and Lucas on the balcony. In the car. Outside the bookstore. Private moments, frozen, twisted for strangers to consume. Lucas’s stomach lurched. “How the hell did this leak?” Jesse crossed his arms, gaze sharp. “You pissed off someone with money. And power.” Elias muttered, “I’ve pissed off more than a few.” Jesse ignored him. “Whoever it is, they’ve decided your little reunion is worth burning.”

“Tyler Eric Houston, you are charged with eighteen counts of mate bond betrayal and infidelity, guilty by your own admission. You are further accused of putting your pack in danger by leaving a hole in the warrior defenses as a direct result of the crimes you committed. Mate bond betrayal is abuse as outlined in your pack’s bylaws. Abuse is punishable by lashes from the silver whip. Do you have anything to say before punishment is carried out?” Alpha King Bradford recited. “Vanessa Stinson is a whore and has betrayed the bond herself. She ran away of her own accord and is the one who created the hole in the warrior defenses. Not that there’s a hole, she wasn’t that strong,” I replied.

The robbers were already going ahead with his execution. He drove me to the Madison Villa. A haven in the middle of the forest build by the Mafia Boss that had his gang controlling nearly half of Vegas. In the Madison Villa, the most insane parties and the most illegal deals were signed. Everyone came looking their most daring and expensive. Even the furniture looked lush. Georgie escorted me in. I hit the bar section. They mixed a light cocktail for me. I siped quietly, eyeing the crowd, looking for my prey.
