Jasper
With her last scrap of power torn away,Mia decided to obliterate everything around her. She laughed with the unhinged ferocity of a she-wolf with nothing left to lose,her eyes wild with vengeful delight.
"Want to know what I found stuffed in your precious Maybach?" she taunted,her voice carrying across the stunned office. "Freya’s torn panties! You two rutted like animals in there,didn’t you? What a pathetic excuse for a mate bond—eight years as your secret plaything,and that desperate little Gamma just kept crawling back for whatever scraps of attention you’d throw her!"
Her words hung in the air like poisoned arrows,each one finding its mark as Jasper’s expression darkened dangerously. The pack members shifted uncomfortably,some averting their eyes from this raw display of pack hierarchy dysfunction.
"Face reality,Alpha," Mia spat the title like an insult. "YOU were the one who refused to believe her when she told you about Reed. YOU watched while I made her serve drinks at her own birthday celebration. You think I drove your precious Freya away? Take a good look in the damn mirror!"
With each accusation,Jasper’s jaw clenched tighter,the tendons in his neck straining as his inner wolf howled with rage and shame. His knuckles turned white as he battled the primal urge to physically silence her.
"You still don’t understand what you’ve done,do you?" he growled,his voice dropping to that dangerous Alpha timber that made everyone’s inner wolves instinctively submit.
With a sharp hand signal,he summoned the security wolves who immediately flanked Mia. They grabbed her arms,their grips unforgiving as they dragged her away. Her screams echoed through the office,a haunting soundtrack to her fall from grace as employees watched in stunned silence,their wolf instincts processing this dramatic shift in pack dynamics.
Back at the penthouse,Jasper had security lock Mia in the basement quarters—the same area where she’d once banished Freya to work as kitchen staff. Now she would experience firsthand every humiliation she’d inflicted on the woman who had truly held his pack together.
She was forced to carry scalding dishes that left her hands blistered and raw,her once-perfect manicure ruined as her soft skin cracked and bled. She was made to kneel for entire days at a time on the hard stone floor—continuing even after passing out from exhaustion and waking again to the same punishment.
Throughout her ordeal,Jasper never once checked on her. His wolf had completely detached from any connection they might have shared. He had more pressing matters—his bond with Freya had been severed by his own blindness,and he was desperate to repair it.
Having finally admitted his feelings aloud,both to himself and his pack,he was hellbent on winning Freya back. His wolf paced restlessly inside him,howling for their missing mate.
He showed up at Elena’s apartment loaded with shopping bags from exclusive European boutiques,knocking anxiously on her door,his usual Alpha confidence nowhere to be found.
She answered quickly,her welcoming smile freezing when she recognized him. Her expression morphed into pure disdain,her wolf’s loyalty clearly tied to Freya rather than her blood relative.
"What the hell are you doing here?" she demanded,blocking the doorway with her body in a clear protective stance.
Knowing full well he was in the doghouse with his sister,Jasper lifted the designer bags in a peace offering,attempting a smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes.
"Haven’t seen you since you got back from Paris. Brought you some things,El."
Elena wasn’t remotely swayed by his transparent act,but as Freya had once noted—blood ties ran deep in wolf culture. With an icy glare that would make their father proud,she reluctantly stepped aside to let him in,cutting straight to business the moment the door closed.
