My Alpha Cheated With All My Friends Novel

Chapter 5

Under Camille's latest video , someone left a

comment :

[ Luna Emma , Wishing you a smooth delivery and your own pup . ]

Shortly after the message was posted , the video mysteriously disappeared .

Not long after , my phone buzzed angrily on the bedside table . The caller ID flashed Alpha Xavier's name .

I didn't answer .

I stared at it , my wolf stirring uneasily inside me . Ignore it , I told her , though her growling made it clear she wasn't on board .

My fingers hovered over the screen before

swiping to block his number entirely.

Just as if as indifferent as he had always

been to me .

Suddenly , I remembered - today was my mother's cremation day . I had informed the hospital in advance , signed the discharge papers , and left . The doctor , clearly

concerned about my condition , even offered to accompany me.

When the staff handed me my mother's urn , I didn't break down in tears as I had imagined .

Instead , I felt something deep inside me snap - the final chain binding me to this wretched life was severed .

Taking a deep breath , I murmured a quiet farewell to the doctor and returned to the villa . I had one mission : pack my things and leave this place forever .

The scent hit me before I even stepped into the living room - Xavier's with Camille's sickeningly sweet perfume . My wolf bristled . I didn't need to see them to know what was happening .

Still , I walked in .

There they were . Sprawled across the sofa , her hair tangled , her dress disheveled . Xavier's shirt hung open , his scent marking the air like a declaration of betrayal .

Camille's eyes widened when she saw me . She fumbled with her dress , pulling it up in a pathetic attempt to cover the crimson marks on her neck .

" Emma , I- "

I held up a hand , cutting her off . " Don't

bother .

"

She flinched , and for a moment , But it vanished as quickly as it appeared , replaced by smug satisfaction .

I didn't react . No anger . No heartbreak . Just ... nothing .

I turned and walked to the bedroom , her stammered excuses fading into the background .

By the time I had finished packing , Camille was gone . But Xavier ...

He was still there , sitting in the dimly lit living room , a glass of whiskey in hand .

" Emma , Where were you today ? "

your damn business . "

I wasn't in the mood to say more , but Alpha Xavier suddenly hurled the glass he was holding .

He strode toward me with heavy steps .

His eyes narrowed , " None of my business ? Don't act so pure and untouchable , Emma . I know exactly what you were doing today . " .

I froze .

"What are you talking about ? "

He stepped closer , his voice dropping to a dangerous whisper . " You went to meet another man , didn't you ?

Couldn't handle being neglected , so you found someone else to scratch that itch ? "

It took a second for his words to sink in . My wolf snarled , pacing furiously in my mind .

" What the hell is wrong with you ? " I snapped .

" Don't lie to me ! " His voice was low , dangerous .

" Xavier , have you lost your mind ?! " I yelled , backing up instinctively .

But he didn't stop .

Before I could react , he grabbed my arm , his grip bruising , and yanked me toward the bed , tore at my clothes . His eyes burned with something wild , something dangerous .

" Fine ," he hissed . " If you're lonely , let me take care of that ."

Panic shot through me like an electric

current . My wolf snarled , but I was too weak to shift , too drained from everything I had endured .

I twisted and shoved at him . " Stop ! I just gave birth , you lunatic !

"

My words didn't seem to register . His teeth grazed my neck , and the heat of his breath made my skin crawl .

That was the our mate's mark .

Summoning every ounce of strength I had left , I shoved him hard and slapped him across the face .

The sound echoed in the room like a gunshot .

Xavier froze .

The tension was suffocating .

Then , his expression darkened . He grabbed the glass bottle from the table and threw it at

me .

It all happened too fast .

The glass shattered against my forehead , sending a sharp pain searing through my skull . Warm blood trickled down my face .

Xavier's anger flickered into something else -panic .

" Emma ... " He stepped toward me , reaching out . " Why didn't you dodge ? "

But I couldn't answer . My vision blurred , and the world tilted .
