99 Times He Left Me Mid-Moon for a Fake Omega – The 100th? I Marked His Rival Alpha Chapter 01
“Please, Maddox-don’t leave. Not again.”
My Alpha mate’s already pulling up his pants. Doesn’t even look at me.
“I’ll be back.”
No, he won’t.
Already ninety-nine times.
Every single time we’re about to cimax, his little “Omega” had a crisis. A rogue. A stalker. A pervert. Always something.
And every single time, he RAN. Left me alone, empty.
Tonight? I’m done counting.
I just called a wolf who actually wants me.
“Come pick me up,” I whispered. “Tonight. I’m finally ready.”
My wolf is done crying.
The 100th crisis isn’t hers.
It’s MINE.
This time? I’m not giving them a warning.
I’m giving them a GRAVE.
My wolf was right there-claws out, howling inside my chest, about to climax
Then my Alpha mate’s phone started buzzing like crazy.
He didn’t even blink. Just pulled out and rolled off me.
Left me there. Shaking. Empty.
I’m still trying to breathe when I hear it-some she-wolf on the other end, full-on ugly crying.
“Maddox, oh my Moon Goddess, there’s this rogue following me. He-he literally whipped it out and started jerking off right in front of me. I’m shaking so bad.”
His whole face went dark. His wolf’s panic flooded the room.
More worry than he’s ever shown me. Ever.
“Grab that silver spray I gave you. Now. I’m coming.”
I grabbed his wrist. My voice came out cold.
“Maddox You walk out that door. don’t bother coming back. Ever.”
Next thing I know, he shoves me into the headboard-hard. Stars explode behind my eyes.
And he’s gone. Bolted. Chose that she-self over his own Luna.
I grabbed my phone, eyes burning.
“Hey. Remember when you were seven and said you’d let me be your Luna someday? …Yeah. I’m ready.”
“Wait-are you serious? This isn’t some sick joke? Oh my God, you can’t take it back!”
“I’m not. Come get me.”
I hung up and laughed. Not the fun kind.
Around 2 a.m., keys scratched the lock.
I opened my heavy eyes. “Maddox, we seriously need to-”
CLICK. Every light flipped on.
There he was in the doorway, carrying Quinn Wilde like she was made of glass.
He didn’t expect me to be sitting there. Guilty much?
He cleared his throat. “Quinn had a really bad night. Messed up her leg. Can’t be alone, so she’s crashing here a few days.”
Quinn clung to his neck like a hurt pup. Then she slid down.
“Ow-shit.”
Fake wince. Fake smile.
“Hey, Arden. Sorry for, like, totally invading your space.”
I looked down at her “injury.”
A scratch. You’d need a wolf’s nose to even find it.
I smiled. Felt nothing inside.
“Yeah. Whatever.”
I went straight to the bedroom.
Lying there, my wolf wouldn’t settle.
Seven years together. Five years mated.
Tonight felt like the end.
The Alpha who used to curl around me and whisper forever?
Gone.
I wiped my face and got up for water.
Past six months I’ve been chewing silverweed just to sleep.
Then I saw him.
Maddox carrying Quinn out of the bathroom.
She was in just a towel-barely covered, water still dripping.
He carried her to the guest room like she was some sacred relic.
Then he knelt.
Put a bandage on her little scratch.
So gentle. So soft.
Her towel kept slipping. His eyes kept…
CRACK!
I grabbed my water glass and threw it at the floor. Glass everywhere.
“Want me to leave so you two can finish?”
They both jumped. Quinn clutched her towel, tears already coming.
Maddox shot me a look. “I’m literally just putting a Band-Aid on her cut, Arden. You scared the hell out of her.”
I laughed. Sounded crazy, even to my own wolf.
“Oh, my bad. Maybe you should stay and comfort her all night? You know, to make up for my terrible behavior. She’d love that.”
I turned and walked away. Didn’t hear what he yelled.
Back in the bedroom, I called my pack lawyer.
“Hey. Sorry for the late call. I need severance papers. Like, ASAP.”
Next second-my phone ripped out of my hand.
Smashed on the floor.
My wolf howled.
But for once, I didn’t stop her.
