Does Dex Always Betray You Novels & Stories

"Look, Kael, I didn’t come here to share unnecessary details with you. We need to get prepared. Dexter is planning to take over the Silver Wolves, and I don’t want that." "Now there’s a we?" He raised his eyebrows, flashing me a mischievous smirk. "Dexter is a traitor. He betrayed me—my love, my trust, everything—and now I would like to see him suffer." Kael's sudden laugh caught me off guard. "Well, really, I can’t blame him. You were the lunatic that believed his words... I mean, how did you convince yourself that that old dolt loves you? To think you are attractive," he shook his head as if disappointed in my choice of love.

"I might be losing my touch, but you have to remember that I am a legend in this game." He was right; his tactics were the reason he had grown so big, even though he was just a congressman. "Do we have a deal?" I ask, and he nods, still pointing the glass at me. I take it and take a sip before stretching my hand out to him. "I guess we have a deal?" AUTHOR’S NOTE So Drexon just shook hands with a man who sold out his own daughter. The question is: if Smith can betray his blood, what makes Drexon think he won’t betray him too?

"Please tell me she's kidding." "The prisoner's dilemma isn't about what's real. It's about what you believe could be real. Fear of betrayal is more powerful than actual betrayal." Victoria smiled—sad, knowing. "I spent my life believing everyone would eventually betray me. So I betrayed them first. It made me powerful. It also made me alone." The video continued.

Dex said in a serious voice. "I don't keep friends because I trust no one. But, I've done my research on you and from the look of things, I could have need for you in this city. I told you before that I am here on a mission and until the mission is done, you'll have to get used to me being around. I will be working undercover most of the time and I will need someone with your status and connection to achieve my aim. Can I trust you never to betray me?" "Yes." Dex sat up, and wrapped his arms around her firmly. "You can completely trust me and I promise, I'll never ever betray you."

"Dex said that he can hold off for six hours before the manhunt starts. That gives us time to come up with a fair punishment that his father will agree with that doesn't involve you dying." "What if he doesn't agree with any punishment you choose? Will you let them kill me? Will you let me die?" I pause my attempt to grab cold water from the fridge. I turn to him, allowing the fridge to close. "Are you asking me to choose between you and Dex?" He takes a step towards me while raising a brow. "Yes." I slide a hand into my pocket while giving him a small smile. "I am loyal to the horsemen." His smile grows as his shoulders drop with relief. I narrow my eyes. "But my devotion lies with Dex and

Chapter 12: Choosing Sides Darius POV The air felt suffocating, the tension between Killian and Darius nearly crackling like static electricity. You stood between them, an unwilling participant in their battle of wills. Killian’s eyes burned with controlled determination, while Darius’s gaze held the raw desperation of a man haunted by his past. “Aria, you know I wouldn’t betray you,” Darius said, his voice cracking with an emotion that made your chest tighten. “You have to believe me. Everything I did, I did to save you.”

I say, feeling my throat get tight. Samara’s arms tighten around me and she looks up at me, my sorrow reflected in her eyes. “A person I trusted, a person Theo trusted, betrayed him and his family. My pack, we are going to war. I will finally be able to avenge the death of my friend and his family. And we will do that with his sister at my side.” “Alpha, who betrayed them?” Austin asks. I look at my pack members. Sawyer has been my friend my entire life. He’s spent time in this pack. Most, if not all, of my pack members know him.

I didn’t ever see him get bullied, and he was the one actually responsible for my existence. But it wouldn’t matter. My mate was the future alpha. Even when his father died and Dave took over the pack, I knew it would only get better. Even when he had less and less time for me. Even when he was cold and distant when we met in public, like he hardly knew me. I just looked past it, so confident he would take me as his mate, and everything would be fine.

The view from up here was usually breathtaking, but today I barely noticed it. I was relieved to find the office empty. Wiping my tears, I went straight to Dad's desk. I had to find that contract - the one I'd begged him to sign. It said that once I got married, Gabe would take my place as the acting chairperson of the company. How could I have been so blind? Dad never liked Gabe, but I thought he was just being overprotective. Now I understand. But even knowing what Gabe had done, my heart still ached. I loved him so much.

Dante’s lip curled in disdain, but his silence spoke volumes. Antonio leaned in, his faint British accent cutting through the tension like a blade. “The truth hurts, doesn’t it? Your stiff taxes, your insatiable thirst for blood—it’s alienated the family. You’ve turned allies into enemies, Dante. It wasn’t hard to convince the others that change was necessary.” Dante’s eyes burned with hatred, his fists trembling. “You betrayed me! You sold me out for what? To prop up a boy who thinks he’s ready to rule?”
