NovelEnglishAlexander, who had been silent until now, finally moved.
“Ethan,” he said coolly, pulling out his phone, “if you don’t stand up this second, I'll have building security drag
you back to the
floor you cfrom.”
Ethan's head whipped up. “Don’t you dare!” he snarled, then looked atwith betrayal, “You're
lettinghimdecide what
happens tonow?”
“I didn’tletanyone do anything,” | said icily. “You showed up,
uninvited. And just so we're clear-you’re not my responsibility
anymore.”
Right on cue, the property manager and two guards arrived.
“Apologies, Alpha Alexander,” the manager said. “We're
investigating why Mr. Hawthorne's access card worked for
your floor. Now we have found that he lives in the same
building.”
My head snapped toward the manager. “Wait. Ethan lives
here?”
The manager nodded politely. “He purchased an apartment on
the twentieth floor just two days ago.”
The blood drained from my face. “Two days ago? | wasn't told
anyone else bought into this building.”
Ethan, still on his knees, looked up atwith a faint smile. “I
just wanted to be closer to you.”
| stared at him in disbelief. “You bought a place under my nose
and stalkedup here pretending it was an accident?”
Alexander turned to the manager. “Whether it’s an accident or
not, this man is creating a disturbance. Please escort him to his
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfloor.”
The guards moved forward, but Ethan lunged again-this time
at me, grabbing the hem of my sweater. “I'm not going
anywhere without my wife!”
Before | could speak, Alexander yanked him back, forcefully
but with precision. “She said leave.”
Ethan staggered, then snarled, his canines slightly elongating-
his wolf reacting. “You stay out of this, Alpha. This is between
my mate and me!”
“Mate?” | snapped. “That title was null the moment you crawled
into another woman's arms.”
He looked at me, face streaked with tears, a drunken mess of a
man who used to be powerful. “I'm still your husband... your
luna...”
‘Don’t” | said coldly, cutting him off as | stepped forward, the
pain in my knee momentarily forgotten. | looked straight into
his eyes as everyone watched the guards, the manager.
Alexander. “You're nothing tonow, Ethan Hawthorne.
Nothing but a liar, a cheater, and a fool who couldn't hold on to

Gasps rippled through the hallway.
“I want him removed,” | added, facing the manager. “Right now”

breathless. My knees trembled, not from pain, but from the
sheer chaos that had just unfolded in my own home.
The security guards looked shaken. One of them rubbed his arm
where Ethan had probably scratched him with those half-
shifted claws. The other kept muttering something about
needing backup next time.
Alexander, meanwhile, was composed as ever. Not a single
crease out of place in his shirt. He simply turned to the building
manager and gave a curt nod. “Make sure his access to this floor
is revoked. Immediately.”
“Yes, Alpha,” the manager stammered and rushed off like a
rabbit being chased.

| finally exhaled, rubbing my temples. “He’s not going to stop, is
he?”
Alexander looked atfor a moment, then asked quietly,
“Have you really made up your mind about the divorce?”
| met his gaze. “Yes. | don’t care what tantrums he throws or how many times he cries. I've made up my mind.”
There was a silence between us.
