“Boss? Boss??” Veyron’s voice shattered the silence of my office.

I sat behind my desk, eyes fixed on the incessant ringing of my cellphone, purposely ignoring it. That foolish wench and her arrogant self. Who did she think she was?

I should have left her for dead when I had the chance. I had made it what it was supposed to be, and after doing it, I questioned why I even had to hide. Why hide my infidelity when she didn’t deserve a shred of respect?

After everything I had done, cheating wasn’t too much for her to overlook. I would make her life a living hell until she came crawling back, kneeling, begging, like the whore she was.

I was finishing the final drafts of my collaborations with Godlike Legal Empire when Veyron’s voice cut through again, and then he burst in.

I glared at him. What could be so urgent that he couldn’t wait?

“The news, sir. You have to see this,” he said hurriedly, reaching for the remote to turn on the

1. TV.

In an instant, the channel came alive. Mirena Daylight, the most elegant newscaster, appeared on screen, speaking about me, the divorce, and the official court date.

A cold chill ran down my spine. I froze, eyes locked on the screen. Mirena Daylight… Kashi’s girlfriend. He’d done this on purpose, to soil my name publicly. An announcement he could easily have passed along privately, but no. He chose this way.

“For them to call you to court, that means you’ve signed the contract,” Veyron said. I lifted my gaze to him, questioning.

He was right. The court session, sacred between the human region and werewolf territory, wouldn’t have allowed my name to be broadcast or any divorce announced, unless both parties had signed the papers.

My heart skipped a beat. Reality began to dawn, and then my phone rang. The screen read Neils White, my brother–in–law. Judge. He own the firm my lawyer also worked.

I answered. His loud, angry tone pierced me.

“You’ve got to be kidding me, Ares! What did you do?! How could you sign the divorce papers?!”

I froze. Why would I sign any papers? I knew exactly what was at stake. I knew the hell I’d endured to keep her, the reason I married Snow in the first place. I wouldn’t back down now.

“Neils…”

“Kashi is handling the case. You signed the papers. A copy has been sent to my firm. You’ll be in court tomorrow, whether you like it or not. The Frosts have the upper hand. Roc will be the judge. They’ll attack you from every angle. You’re dead. A witness from their side will speak, and if the weight of the speech favors them… forget it. You’ll be a divorcé!”

He hung up, and my chest felt hollow. My face went pale, heart sinking. I didn’t sign any papers… unless… Lencia.

I glanced at Veyron, trust in his loyalty absolute. He had been with me through my darkest secrets; he wouldn’t betray me. The only one who could do this… was Lencia.

“Call her,” I fumed, senses on fire. Veyron knew instantly, dashing out and returning minutes later with her.

My secretary, the woman I allowed to act like the lady of the house, even above my legally wedded wife, now stood before me. She had crossed the line.

Slowly, I rose, eyes locked on her, silent fury simmering. I prayed it wasn’t true. If it was… she’d be dead.

“You gave me some documents to sign. Divorce papers, right?” My voice was low, lethal.

Lencia’s eyes searched mine. She stepped back, only to bump into Veyron. Trapped, she realized the man staring at her wasn’t the horny indulgent Ares she had known.

Still, she lifted her chin.

“You do not love her, Ares. You are only…‘

Before she could finish, my palm shot out, slapping her across the face. She tumbled, lost balance.

I knelt beside her, hands tightening around hereck, ready to crush her.

“How dare you?!” I screamed, fury deafening. He face turned purple as she struggled, but I held firm, until Veyron intervened, pulling me back before I did more damage.

Blinded by rage, I stormed to my desk, sweeping everything to the ground, shivering at the thought of divorcing Snowflakes Frost. Would I ever see her in my house again? Had she conspired with Lencia?

“Fire the secretary, Veyron. Make sure she never sets foot in F.A.A.R. again,” I muttered,

Veyron bowed, hauling Lencia away, her screams fading behind the door. I paused, thinking fast. Snow couldn’t leave. No. She couldn’t. If she returned to the Frosts, they might reopen

the Dark Alley case and we would all be doomed

A witness she might use?. A witness… Ana.
