Chapter 82 Reckoning
Aubrey’s POV
He shouldn’t have brought it up. Now I was furious too.
My face turned cold as frost. “Damn right I’m holding a grudge. I remember every shitty thing you did. I remember you ignoring me, worshipping Mariana, hating that I was your Omega fiancée. I remember how many times you told me–‘Don’t show your face in front of me again!“”
With every word I spoke, the fire in alpha Henry’s eyes dimmed, until finally, it went out entirely. He even looked… guilty.
“I really said that?” he asked, sounding unsure.
“What do you think, Alpha?” I snapped back with a sneer.
He had nothing else to say. I stormed off, and this time, he didn’t try to stop me. Maybe it was for the best. He needed to seriously think about what the hell he really felt for me. Maybe once he figured it out, he’d finally let go.
When the cab dropped me off outside my building, I stepped out–and froze.
Three people I wanted nothing to do with were waiting for me: my father, Aurelia, and Bailey.
Aurelia looked pale–her wounds from the wolfbane–laced whipping clearly hadn’t healed. Bailey stood behind her like a wilted plant, all her former arrogance gone.
Seeing me, Dad forced a smile. “Aubrey, I just wanted to tell you, everything’s been cleared up. What happened with Jimmy, it was all Caesar’s doing! He’s in jail now, so there’s nothing to worry about…”
Of course it was Caesar. Who else?
I stared coldly at my father. He didn’t believe what he was saying–not really. He had seen Aurelia’s lies, her ugly secrets, with his own eyes. But even with that knowledge, he still chose to make peace, to keep –pretending we were a happy family.
“Aubrey… I was just confused before, okay? I jumped to conclusions. I had no idea people would stoop so low to tear our family apart! Don’t be mad…” Aurelia stepped closer, putting on a show of remorse.
I stared at her with disgust.
“Was it someone framing you, or were you just the one yelling ‘thief‘ to cover up your own crime? You tell me.”
My words cut the fake atmosphere into silence.
“And stop calling yourself my mom My real mother died over ten years ago.”
I didn’t stick around to see the expression twist on her face. I walked past all three of them and headed upstairs.
Behind me, I could hear Aurelia sobbing, Dad yelling–but I didn’t care. I’d done what I came to do. I exposed their lies. If Dad still wanted to cling to those two parasites, that was on him. Let him be the one suffering for it.
Chapter 82 Reckoning
If I could cut off my feelings for alpha Henry, then I could let go of anything.
Later that night, I contacted alpha Mateo and told him to leak the truth: that the land Caesar just bought was filled with toxic waste. It didn’t matter how rich the Lynn family was–big empires had even bigger cash. flow problems. Losing forty–eight billion like that would hit hard.
In return, I’d be going to treat Matco’s brother tomorrow.
Third Person POV
“This is the land you spent forty–eight billion on? It’s full of poisonous trash! Do you have any idea how hard that is to clean up?” Ryan, Caesar’s father and the real head of the Lynn family, was livid.
“Didn’t you investigate it before buying? Are you trying to bankrupt
us?!”
But Caesar didn’t flinch. “There’s something else under that land, Dad. Something that can enhance our family’s werewolf bloodline.”
Ryan’s eyes narrowed. “You’re serious?”
“Absolutely.” Caesar nodded quickly. “You think I’d spend that kind of money on junk otherwise? Just wait. Let them laugh now. Once I find that treasure, they’ll be the ones crying.”
He had to find it.
There was no backup plan.
He roared the last part.
