Reborn Omega: Avenge Herself Like an Alpha
Chapter 37 The Ind of Ghosts
Aubrey’s POV
The engine roared to life, and without answering me, Alpha Henry mmed the gas.
The car shot forward like an arrow, the city lights blurring into streaks beyond the windows. I didn’t ask where he was taking me. Honestly, with how much he hated me, I wasn’t worried about him trying anything. He probably just wanted to lecture me–or humiliate me onest time.
Then I recognized the road.
My fingers curled into my palm on instinct.
Ocean Ind.
The most privatend in the entire Shadowmoon Pack–Alpha Henry’s personal sanctuary. Beyond the family’s main estate on the outskirts, this two–thousand–square–meter ind was where he spent most of <b>his </b>time. One road in, one road out. One vi. No intrusions.
In my past life, I’d dreamed about this ce a thousand times. I imagineding here as his Luna- imagined spending our heat cycles tucked away on this ind, standing side by side on the balcony <i>at </i>dawn as Pack members sent us their blessings. I’d even nned to change the bedroom curtains to forest green and ce freshly picked wildflowers on the table every morning.
Maybe we’d have pups. They’d call us “mom” and “dad.” Just the sound of it…
Beautiful lies.
Because until the day I died, I never set foot on this ind.
And now? He brought me here so casually, so easily, like it meant nothing.
What a joke.
I clenched my hands into fists and closed my eyes. If it had beenst life, I would’ve cried with joy. But now? It didn’t matter anymore.
By the time the heavy iron gates slowly opened, I’d already calmed down.
After we got out of the car, the staff silently stepped away. I stared out at the moonlight dancing on theke and asked in a cold voice,
“Are you ready to talk now? What did you find? What do you want from me?”
Alpha Henry didn’t answer immediately. He leaned against the car, his sharp features dusted in silver by the moonlight.
Then, out of nowhere, he asked,
“Who were you
with at the motel?<b>” </b>
I blinked. “What does that have to do with you?”
His brows drew together. His pupils, under the shadow of hisshes, shrank to slits. “Do you have to talk to me like that?” he snapped, stepping closer with that crushing Alpha dominance. “If I didn’t know you <b>were </b>

<b>really </b>Aubrey, I’d <b>think </b>someone had reced yoti!”
My heart lurched–just for a second.
<b>Then </b>I looked away, toward the water. “Don’t act like you know me. If you’re not getting to <b>the </b><b>point</b><b>, </b>I’mm leaving
“Wait!” he said, grabbing my wrist. “What you said carlier–1 looked into it. But it’s been too long. I couldn’t find anything.”
“Oh.” I pulled my hand back, calm as still water. Whether he believed me, hated me, or liked someone else
-it meant nothing to me now.
He went quiet for a moment. His expression twisted a little–maybe he didn’t like my indifference. <b>I </b>guess it was hard for someone like him to spend time with someone he despised just to chase down the truth.
I was about to leave when he suddenly spoke.
“But I thought it over. Even setting that matter aside, I shouldn’t have treated you the way I did. So…” <b>He </b>paused, searching for the words. “I want to make it up to you. Name your price.”
Under the moonlight, I could see the tension in his jaw. Clearly, this noble Alpha wasn’t used to lowering <b>his </b>head to anyone.
“Make it up to me?” I repeated, intrigued. “And what about Mariana Ru? What will you do with her?”
In my past life, he gave her everything she wanted. In the end, he was even ready to mate with her. He must have really loved her. Too bad I didn’t live long enough to see how that ended.
His expression twisted the second he heard her name. He frowned deeply and replied after <i>a </i>moment, “When she gets back, I’ll ask her myself.”
Iughed. “If she were willing to confess, she wouldn’t have done it in the first ce.”
A sudden gust swept across theke, carrying a wet chill. Alpha Henry said nothing. I could tell–he didn’t want to deal with her. I almost scoffed out loud.
But I wasn’t letting Mariana off the hook. After what she did to me, she didn’t deserve happiness. She deserved justice.
Still smiling coldly, I said, “Alpha, if you really want to know what kind of person Mariana Ru is… there’s one way.”
His tone dropped. “What way?”
