Chapter 101 The Slap
Third–Person POV:
Julian’s voice caught in his throat. “You-”

Lillian cut in sharply. “What’s the point of keeping a woman around when her heart’s already somewhere else?”
What do you care what the point is?” Julian’s voice cracked.
That line from Lillian-“her heart’s already somewhere else“-hit him like a blade. Cruel. It was just cruel.
After everything they’d been through, all those years together, and now she was standing there twisting a knife into his chest like it meant nothing.
Lillian was done wasting breath on him. “So are we dissolving this bond or not?”
They were already at the county courthouse.
She didn’t want explanations. She didn’t want closure. She just wanted out.
And the way she asked–flat, cold, final—said everything.
Julian snapped.
Before Lillian or George could react, he grabbed her arm and shoved her into the car.
By the time her brain caught up, Julian was already behind the wheel. Doors locked. No
escape.
The car tore out of the lot like a bullet.
Lillian’s heart lurched. She grabbed the door handle on instinct.
“What are you doing? Pull over!”
Julian didn’t answer. Her desperation to leave had pushed him past reason, and now he was driving like a man with nothing to lose.
He weaved through traffic at insane speeds, cutting people off, earning a symphony of angry horns and screamed curses.

Chapter 103 Refusal
Lillian POV:
“It’s not like I never had hope for you. It’s just
Irailed off mid–sentence
Hope
Yeah I’d had it.
When you pulled me out of the Graves Pack compound, you looked so sure of yourself. I actually believed that with you standing in front of me, what were those pack elders really gonna do?”
Back then, I thought like most Omegas probably would.
So what if the old wolves didn’t like me? I wasn’t gonna spend the rest of my life with them
anyway.
But look how that turned out.
First, everything he’d gotten for us–the house, the mating gifts–all ended up handed over to his mother and sister without a fight.
Then the whole Iris situation happened, and he just fell right in line with whatever Graves Pack wanted.
I saw it for what it was—a setup.
But when I told him we lost our pup because of her, he wouldn’t believe me.
And now this.
He didn’t believe I was pregnant again. He took the word of some bought–off doctor who said after the last miscarriage, my chances of carrying another pup were pretty much shot.
That was the moment I stopped caring.
And the Moonvale Eco–Community project.
He signed it over to Iris himself.

Chapter 108 Refireal
Julian, everything you did during our bond–every single thing is unforgivable?
The things he’d done himself
That wasn’t even counting all the crap with his family.
And now he had the nerve to ask why I never told him any of this was happening.
Hearing that? It was almost funny.
Third–Person POV:
Julian’s b
chest. “So that’s it? You really think I’m that far gone?”
added flatly, “So do it. Break the mate bond.”
+ P
Break the bond. Break the bond.
The words had been clawing at him for days. He couldn’t even think about it without his chest tightening.
“I’m not breaking it. Don’t even think about it.”
He paused, then added, jaw set, remembering the fires at Inkwood Gardens and Harborview Towers, “You could burn down every last building in Graves Pack territory, and I still wouldn’t
break it.”
His voice was hard.
He was making it clear—she couldn’t force his hand that way. Not with fire. Not with anything.
The bond wasn’t going anywhere.
Lillian’s expression went completely cold.
She wasn’t gonna deny it–Harborview Towers, Inkwood Gardens yesterday… yeah, part of her had hoped the pressure would push him to let go.
But now that he’d said this…
The faint curve of her lips disappeared. “Then what’s it
gonna take?”

fter Inkwood Gardens burned yesterday, Julian had brought her straight to Laurel Manor. It
on a mountain, isolated and quiet–he’d bought it years ago, then moved them to Inkwood Gardens for convenience. Now he almost wished he’d never left.
Laurel Manor was far from Graves Pack land. Even if Eleanor wanted to make trouble, she’d probably not have the energy to hike all the way up there.
Julian pulled her out of the car.
Lillian said, “Let go of me.”
“We’re staying here for now. If it’s too far from everything, pick any place in the city you want. I’ll put it in your name.”
He said it slowly. Deliberately.
Like he wanted her to remember–everything he’d ever bought had always been for her.
It just never stayed hers long enough.
Lillian caught the meaning and went straight for the wound. “You get any of it back yet?”
Those things.
What he’d promised–everything taken from her, he’d recover.
Julian spoke, “Everything except what my grandmother’s got.”
The rest had been returned.
Lillian asked, “How long’s that gonna take?”
