Alex didn’t even glance at her. His eyes remained fixed on me, his gaze piercing through me like a knife. I felt a shiver run down my spine as the memory the kiss–came rushing back. I tugged on Ivan’s arm, trying to pull him away. “Let’s just go,” I whispered
urgently.
But Ivan wasn’t having it. “No,” he said, his voice firm and resolute. “I want to know why he’s here.” His grip on my arm tightened, and I knew
I wasn’t going anywhere.
Miranda reached Alex’s side and began talking, her voice a steady stream of chatter. Alex listened, his expression bored, but his eyes never left mine, Iv over me.
This wasn’t going to end well.
As we approached the SUV, Ivan spoke up again. “What are you doing here, Alex?” he asked, his voice firm.
Alex regarded him with a disinterested expression before turning back to me. “You’re okay,” he said, his voice plain, but his eyes flickered
with relief.
I didn’t respond. I just kept staring at him, my mind racing with questions.
Why was he here?
What did he want?

Why had
Miranda fanned herself dramatically. “Why is it so hot outside? Maybe we should go inside. Amaya looks like she might have a heart attack.” She batted her eyelashes at Alex, but he wasn’t having it.
“She’s fine,” he said curtly, his eyes never leaving mine.
At the same time, I spoke up. “I’m fine.”
Our eyes met, and I felt a jolt of electricity run through me. Ivan stiffened beside me, his grip on my arm tightening. Quickly trying to salvage the situation
Ivan didn’t budge. He just stood staring at Alex with the most hateful expression I had ever seen him wear. I needed to get out of here because I knew if
“Ivan, please take me home,” I tried again, my voice a little louder.
Alex’s eyes darkened immediately, and the atmosphere seemed to thicken. I felt a sense of foreboding wash over me. Talk about never

“I want to know why he is here,” Ivan replied, his voice firm and unyielding, his eyes fixed on Alex with an intensity that made me shiver. I cursed internal
“I came to see Amaya,” he said, his voice dripping with sarcasm, “I was married to her, after all.”
The words hung in the air like a challenge, and I felt my heart skip a beat. Everything seemed to stop working at that point – the air on my skin froze, and I couldn’t breathe. Miranda looked shocked, her eyes darting between Alex and Ivan as if she couldn’t believe that Alex had
Ivan’s expression didn’t change, but his voice was laced with a cold anger. “As you can see, she’s fine. So you can go.” He dismissed Alex with a wave o

His company was failing?
Was that why he looked so tired all the time?
Alex wasn’t done, and he continued to taunt Ivan, his voice laced with venom.
“Or sending Miranda to beg me to help,” he added, his eyes flicking towards Miranda, who looked like she wanted to sink into the ground. Ivan’s face wa

The mask of indifference fell from Alex’s face, and he looked like he was ready to kill. His eyes blazed with anger, and his fists were clenched at his side
Why did Alex look like he wanted to own me? Like I suddenly meant something to him.
Without thinking, I started to back away from the two men, my eyes fixed on the parking lot behind me. I couldn’t stand there anymore, listening to them echoed in my mind – “she is mine, and you will never have her” and I felt a surge of anger and humiliation. I didn’t belong to either of them, and I certainly wasn’t going to sta
As I took a step back, both men’s attention snapped to me, their faces frozen in surprise. Alex’s eyes narrowed, his gaze piercing through me like a knife
“Amaya, wait,” he said, his voice low and soothing “I didn’t mean to-” NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
But I wasn’t having it, I kept backing away, my eyes fixed on the parking lot behind me. I just wanted to get out of there, to get away from the tension. Mi quiet seeming out of her element.
“Amaya, stop,” Ivan tried to touch me, his voice a little louder now. “Please, just listen to me.”

But I didn’t stop. I kept backing away, my heart pounding in my chest. I could feel Alex’s eyes on me, boring into my skin like a cold wind. I didn’t dare look at
“Amaya, damn it,” Ivan said, his voice sharp now. “Stop right there.”
I could see the cars, the people milling around. Finally, I turned and ran, my feet pounding the pavement as I sprinted, I could hear Ivan’s voice behind me, calling out my name, but I didn’t stop.
My feet burned, and I hated more than ever how I felt so disconnected from my wolf. Before the rejection, I would have healed from the accident almost immediately, or maybe not even been injured at all. But now, my wound
As I ran, the parking lot blurred around me, a sea of cars and people that I barely registered. I didn’t dare look back, fearing what I might see.
I pushed the thoughts away, focusing on the burn in my legs and the ache in my chest. I had to keep moving, had to get away from the tension and the a

Where was I? And then I heard a voice I didn’t think I would ever hear again. My entire body froze but I managed to turn my head coming face
to face with him.
He looked so different. so different from the man I knew. A slow chilling smile tilted his lips, “Long time no see Amaya.”
I gulped, managing only a single word, his name, “Adrian.”
