The Luna Queen's Rebirth (Ellie and Dominic) novel Chapter 250

Chapter 250

Vivian’s POV

I was done waiting.

I had decided this morning. I had been patient. I had been strategic. I had played the long game and smiled through every single slight and setback, and what did I have to show for it?

Ellie was still here. Still wearing the title that was supposed to be mine. Still sleeping down the hall from my

husband.

Well… Dominic was not my husband. Not yet. But he should have been. He was supposed to be. And yet he was still insisting on staying married to a woman who had been trying her hardest to wreak havoc on his

life.

Blinded by love, he could see that Ellie was a problem, but he kept stopping just short of doing anything about it. He would give her a warning, or check her room, or sit across from her at dinner with that jaw set like granite, and then somehow still not pull the trigger on what really needed to be done.

Divorce.

It was like he was waiting for some perfect, undeniable moment of clarity that I was increasingly convinced was never going to come on its own.

So I was going to hand it to him.

I found him in the study around midmorning. He was at his desk with a stack of papers in front of him, but I could tell from the faraway look in his eyes that he wasn’t really paying attention. When I poked my head into the room, he almost looked hopeful, like he’d expected Ellie to be the one walking through the door.

“Do you have a minute?” I asked from the doorway.

“What is it, Vivian?”

I stepped inside and shut the door behind me, although I remained standing.

“I saw Ellie last night,” I said. “Late. She snuck out of the house.”

Dominic’s hand tightened around his pen. I took a deep breath.

“I couldn’t sleep,” I went on, “and I saw her from my window. She went through the side gate. I followed her a little way. Just to make sure she was safe.”
