The Revenge Of The Lycan King

No Longer Mrs. Cooley: The Architect's Return

Xiao Xiaosu

I went to the City Clerk's office for a routine copy of my marriage license to finalize a trust fund audit. I expected a simple piece of paper, but the clerk's pitying look told me my entire life was a lie. "The license was never finalized, Ms. Oliver. In the eyes of the state, you are single." The three-hundred-guest wedding at the Plaza and the Vogue features meant nothing. My husband, Gray Cooley, had intentionally filed the documents with a "procedural defect" so he could discard me without a legal divorce. Moments later, an iCloud invite titled "Our Little Secret" popped up on my screen. It was a photo of my best friend, Brylee, holding a positive pregnancy test at our Hamptons estate. Gray's text to her was the final blow: "Happy anniversary, babe. This baby is the best gift. Once the trust unlocks today, we're done with the charade." I soon discovered they were even stealing my career, reassigning my architectural masterpiece to Brylee while preparing my eviction notice. Gray's mother called me a "barren mule" in a leaked recording, mocking the infertility I suffered after saving Gray's life in a construction accident. I wasn't a wife; I was a three-year placeholder used to secure his inheritance. How could the man I bled for treat me like a disposable prop? How could my best friend carry his child while pretending to comfort me through my darkest moments? The betrayal burned until it turned into a cold, hard stone of fury. I didn't cry. Instead, I walked into the penthouse of the Barretts, the Cooleys' most powerful rivals. I signed a marriage contract with Kane Barrett, the man the tabloids called the "Beast of Wall Street." "I want a wedding," I told his father, my voice steady and lethal. "Bigger than the one I had with Gray." If they wanted me gone, they would have to watch me become the woman who owns their world.

"Jack! What are youu doing?"The snapping voice rang out loudly, a woman shouting with her shoulders shaking from holding back tears.

"Alice? Why are you here?"

Yep, that woman was Alice. A special shewolf who had holy blood in her body. Alice's blue eyes glazed over when she saw Jack, her lover, kissing passionately with a shewolf named Eliza. Alice felt betrayed by Jack after what he gave her.

"I should be the one asking you! I just gave you the Alpha position, and now you're betraying me?" Alice spoke at length, as her heart was aching.

Alice was the daughter of William, the former Alpha Pack Shadow, who had just died from being assassinated. Alice was the Alpha Pack Shadow candidate to replace her father, but instead she gave the Alpha position to her asshole boyfriend. Jack persuaded and promised Alice that he would make Alice Luna if Jack became Alpha. But it turned out to be a betrayal that Alice got.

"Tsk, you think I care?" laughed Jack, then said again, "You should know, I don't like you at all. I reject you as my mate!"

Jack's words made Alice even more angry and hurt. Jack not only betrayed Alice, but he also rejected her as a mate. Alice really didn't expect Jack to be such an asshole.

Alice clenched her fists. "Do you prefer that bitch to me?" she said angrily.

Eliza-shewolf, who became Jack's new lover, did not accept it; she began to attack Alice with her power.

"How dare you call me a bitch?" snapped Eliza, who was about to attack Alice again. But Alice managed to dodge.

"You think I'm going to stay silent? I'll cancel the transfer of the Alpha position! I won't let you become Alpha Pack Shadow!" After saying that, Alice was about to leave there.

"Damn it, don't mess with me," said Jack, who didn't accept it. He attacked Alice from behind, which resulted in Alice being unconscious.

"What about this? Can Alice take your position back?" asked Eliza.

Jack thought for a while, then answered, "Alice won't be able to change anything if she disappears or even dies."

Jack smiled slyly; an idea crossed his mind. It wasn't long before Jack took Alice to a place far away from Shadow's pack.

***

A cramped and dirty place—that's where Alice was. It had been days since Alice had been in that room, with powers she couldn't use. Jack had locked Alice up after the incident; even Jack had blocked Alice's power in that room. Alice would not be able to use her powers in that room. Alice had tried to escape many times but eventually failed.

"Alice!"

Someone called out to Alice harshly. While Alice was curled up on the floor, she kept her eyes closed and refused to look at Jack.

'Don't open your eyes!' Alice's mind still closed her eyes.
